The restaurant’s decoration was simple and clean, and there was a terrace. All the customers were residents nearby.

Most of the residents in the old residential area were elderlies. They did not pay attention to celebrities like young people, so they naturally did not notice Lin Shanchu.

The two of them found a seat at the corner of the terrace and sat down. Looking out, they saw the quiet street.

Lin Shanchu stared at the streetscape in a daze.

Wen Huan ordered the dishes and urged her, “Hurry up and tell me, will the illegitimate daughter die?”

Lin Shanchu turned around and slowly picked up the cup. “Hurry up and tell me,” Wen Huan urged her anxiously.

“Tell what?” Lin Shanchu smiled.

Wen Huan replied, “Didn’t you say that you’d give me a spoiler if I treated you to a meal?”

Lin Shanchu explained seriously, “But I remember that I only told you to treat me to a meal. I didn’t say that I was going to give you a spoiler.”

“You…” Wen Huan was tongue-tied as he angrily pointed at her. Then, he continued, “Hou can you go back on your word?”

“This meal is on me,” Lin Shanchu said calmly.

“Tell me, why did you lure me out here?” Wen Huan crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes to size up Lin Shanchu, trying to read her thoughts through her expression.

He really could not understand female celebrities nowadays. She did not tell him directly when something happened and even lured him out with a spoiler.

Lin Shanchu held the cup with both hands and said slowly, “I need your help to me buy some medicine.”

“What medicine?” Wen Huan looked at her suspiciously. “Is it legal?”

She had a manager and an assistant, and there were many people who could help her buy medicine.

However, she had to come to him for help.

Something was wrong.

Lin Shanchu leaned forward and whispered, “Strong painkillers.”

“Medicine like morphines?” Wen Huan frowned and sized her up. “Who’s going to take this kind of medicine?”

Lin Shanchu clenched her fists before she loosened them. After a moment of silence, she made up her mind and said, “Me.”

Wen Huan subconsciously thought about the scope of use of morphines.

Shortly afterwards, his face darkened.

It was an opioid for treating severe pain.

It was generally used for neuropathic pain in post-surgery, post-paraplegia… and cancer pain.

Lin Shanchu before his eyes had not undergone surgery and her limbs were still intact.

He looked at Lin Shanchu in disbelief. The corners of his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to ask her the reason but he dare not do so.

“Yes, it’s cancer.” Lin Shanchu’s casual tone made it seem like she did not really care about this matter.

This was the first time Lin Shanchu had told anyone about her illness.

It was not as difficult as she had imagined.

She even felt a little relaxed.

However, Wen Huan suddenly became angry. “If you’re sick, you should go and get treated. What’s the use of taking painkillers?”

Wen Huan in front of her had never gone through thick and thin with her.

However, he was still kind enough to care for her.

“It can’t be cured. I still have a lot of things to do, so I don’t want to waste time in the hospital,” Lin Shanchu spoke softly to him, trying to comfort him.

Wen Huan realized that Lin Shanchu was a patient, so he should not have been so fierce.

His tone softened as he said, “What is more important than your life?”

“Wen Huan, I have something that I must do. To me, these things are more important than my life.”

Wen Huan was silent for a long time. “Does anyone else know about your illness?”

Lin Shanchu replied, “Other than myself, you are the first.”

Wen Huan looked slightly stunned as he asked the question on his mind, “You trust me that much?”

“Yeah.” Lin Shanchu laughed lightly with a rising tone, looking excited as if she was talking about something happy.

Wen Huan’s heart skipped a beat and was unable to calm down.

He asked, “How do I give it to you after I get the medicine?”

Lin Shanchu had gone to such great lengths to ask for his help in buying the medicine. Naturally, she wanted to hide it from the others.

Lin Shanchu smiled. She knew that Wen Huan would definitely understand her and help her.

“Mail it to me.”

“I’ll mail it to you as soon as possible.”

He did not know how much pain cancer patients were in.

However, he knew that if Lin Shanchu had not reached an unbearable state, she would not have come to him.

The next morning, Lin Shanchu was woken up by the alarm clock.

In the past, she could wake up naturally without an alarm clock, but now she could no longer do so.

When she opened the door and went out, He Xiang happened to walk towards her.

“Sister Lin, I was just about to wake you up for breakfast.”

He Xiang turned around and went to the dining room with her.

He Xiang stopped in her tracks after walking halfway through. “By the way, Sister Lin, when did you buy something? A parcel was couriered early in the morning. ”

“Where is it?” She did not expect that Wen Huan would act so quickly.

He Xiang passed the parcel to Lin Shanchu and went to the kitchen to serve breakfast.

Lin Shanchu glanced in the direction of the kitchen. After confirming that He Xiang had entered the kitchen, she turned around and returned to her bedroom with the parcel in her arms.

There was a pile of bottles on the coffee table.

They were dietary supplements that He Xiang had bought for Lin Shanchu.

They were all vitamins, fish oil and the like.

Lin Shanchu took a bottle in passing.

After returning to the bedroom, she locked the door before opening the parcel.

A stack of photos greeted her eyes.

They were all photos of her that Wen Huan had taken before. Lin Shanchu moved the photos away and saw a bottle of medicine lying underneath.

Lin Shanchu smiled.

Wen Huan was quite cautious.

She tore off the label on the bottle and poured all the vitamins into the toilet bowl. Then, she filled the empty bottle with painkillers.

“Sister Lin?”

He Xiang’s voice came from outside.

“I’m coming.” Lin Shanchu put the vitamin bottle into the drawer and turned to

Ieave.

He Xiang was sitting in front of the dining room and scrolling through her phone. When she saw Lin Shanchu coming over, she said excitedly, “Sister Lin, there is a gossip.”

Lin Shanchu guessed that this gossip might have something to do with her, but still she cooperatively asked, “What gossip?

“Lu Shiyuan signed Xia Jinmeng to Lu Corporation.” He Xiang handed her phone to Lin Shanchu.

It was indeed this matter.

The hastag #XiaJinmengSignedAContractWithLuCorporation was trending.

The official Weibo of Lu Corporation’s artist department and Xia Jinmeng jointly announced the signing of the contract.

Many marketing accounts even promoted the topic.

“The lineup is quite big.” Lin Shanchu returned the phone to He Xiang.

“Sister Lin, why aren’t you surprised at all?” He Xiang asked.

“Actually, I’m quite surprised.” She had long known that Lu Shiyuan had signed Xia Jinmeng, but she did not expect he would make such a big commotion during the official announcement. He even deliberately bought the trending search.

It was not difficult to guess Lu Shiyuan’s thoughts—he deliberately supported Xia Jinmeng because she and Xia Jinmeng did not get along well.

He signed Xia Jinmeng to Lu Corporation partly because of his selfishness and partly because he wanted to annoy Lin Shanchu.

He Xiang was speechless as she really could not tell it.

Lin Shanchu urged He Xiang, “Hurry up and eat. After you’re done, I’ll take you to the frontline to savor the most trending gossip.”

“You’re going to Lu Corporation?” He Xiang’s eyes brightened.

“Yes.” Lin Shanchu said slowly, “My fiancé signed a female artist behind my back. I have to go back to Lu Corporation to see what’s going on anyway..”
