Xia Jinmeng’s face stiffened as she said, “I was just about to eat.”
She had been staring at Lin Shanchu the whole time, thinking of a way to trick Lin Shanchu into going to the director’s office later. How could she have the time to eat?
“Eat then,” Lin Shanchu said while keeping her gaze on her, her voice incredibly gentle.
As Xia Jinmeng lowered her head to eat, her actions revealed a hint of panic.
She was so nervous.
She knew something big was going to happen.
But Xia Jinmeng was sealed off from the outside world in this training camp. Without a mobile phone, she couldn’t possibly do much alone.
That means she must have had an accomplice.
Of course, the answer was obvious.
Xia Jinmeng’s accomplice had to be Tang Qidai, the only person who wished nothing more than for Lin Shanchu to die.
Plus, Tang Qidai had people among the production crew’s staff. Once Lin Shanchu was far away, Xia Jinmeng slowly raised her head.
“When did you and Lin Shanchu become so close?” the person beside Xia Jinmeng asked.
“Just eat,” Xia Jinmeng replied with a cold expression.
She kept having a feeling that Lin Shanchu might have discovered something.
But, she couldn’t find any evidence of it.
The auntie serving food at the counter saw Lin Shanchu coming over and greeted her with a motherly smile. “What would you like to eat, little girl?”
“Auntie, can I have some more prawns?
The lady scooped a full bowl of prawns and asked, “Is this enough?”
“That’s enough. And add some vegetables. Thank you, Auntie.” Lin Shanchu brought the dishes back to Yun Wu.
Seeing that she did not sit down, Yun Wu asked, “You’re not eating?”
“I’m going to the bathroom.”
Lin Shanchu was in the bathroom for quite a long time.
When she returned, Yun Wu had already finished eating.
The recording session ends at five o’clock in the afternoon.
Everyone couldn’t help but feel nervous as they faced the camera.
Once the recording ended, everyone stopped to rest.
The trainees from other practice rooms came over to see Huo Chaosheng.
After patiently taking a few photos with them, Huo Chaosheng expressed a slight regret, “I still have other work to do, so I’ll take my leave first. See you all tomorrow.”
The trainees waved at him reluctantly, “See you tomorrow.”
“He’s so handsome and gentle!”
“So, this is what it feels like to have a dream come true. I actually managed to talk to Alec… ”
After walking some distance, Huo Chaosheng turned back to look at the girls.
His gaze fell directly on Lin Shanchu, who stood out the most.
Through the crowd, Huo Chaosheng flashed her an ambiguous smile. Although she didn’t know what Huo Chaosheng was up to, his pretentious demeanor was truly annoying.
Lin Shanchu just rolled her eyes at Huo Chaosheng in disgust and turned away from him.
Huo Chaosheng was slightly taken aback. He snorted coldly and left.
As Lin Shanchu turned away, she saw Xia Jinmeng talking to the director.
But they were a little far so she could not hear what the two of them were talking about.
Ran Zhimo suddenly walked to her side without her noticing. She asked, “Why are you still wearing your jacket? Aren’t you hot?”
“Nope.” Lin Shanchu replied as she loosened the zipper of her jacket.
Ran Zhimo carefully observed LinShanchu for a moment and noticed she didn’t drop a single bead of sweat. So, she didn’t say anything more.
“I’m going to the washroom.” Lin Shanchu placed her hands in her jacket pockets and strolled toward the bathroom.
Not long after Lin Shanchu entered the washroom, she heard someone come in.
She pushed her cubicle door open and came out to see Xia Jinmeng standing in front of the sink, looking at herself in the mirror. Xia Jinmeng was surprised to see Lin Shanchu behind her.
“You came to use the bathroom too?”
Lin Shanchu approached the sink beside her side to wash her hands as she retorted, “If not? Am I here to eat shit?”
Xia Jinmeng was momentarily stunned by that remark.
“You’re a public figure. Shouldn’t you know how to be mindful of your words?”
“We’re in private now, aren’t we?”
Xia Jinmeng stopped saying anything more.
She was furious. From the corner of her eye, she saw that Lin Shanchu had already turned off the faucet.
Without much time to think, she blurted out, “The director wants you to go to his office. He has something to discuss with you.”
“Okay.”
Xia Jinmeng waited for a moment for a response, but she realized Lin Shanchu was already heading out.
She didn’t even ask her for a reason!
Xia Jinmeng had even prepared all sorts of excuses to respond to her question.
But whatever!
She could not be blamed for this!
Lin Shanchu could only blame herself for being stupid!
Humming a tune, Lin Shanchu strolled toward the director’s office.
She didn’t encounter anyone along the way.
When she reached the entrance to the director’s office, she raised her hand to knock on the door.
With just one knock, the office door opened from the inside.
“Come in, the director is waiting for you inside.”
The man who spoke was a thin man of average height with a somewhat pale complexion. He had a gentle and honest look to him.
He had a work tag hanging from his neck.
Lin Shanchu read out the name on the tag, “Jiang Ziyu.”
Jiang Ziyu quickly covered his work tag and urged Lin Shanchu, “Come in quickly. The director has other matters to attend to.”
Lin Shanchu didn’t say anything and obediently walked in with a docile expression.
Bang!
AS sonn as she entered. Tiang Ziyu Slammed the door shiit
The room was very quiet, so the sound of the door locking was crystal clear.
However, Lin Shanchu acted as if she hadn’t heard anything and walked straight toward the office desk.
Lin Shanchu stopped in front of the empty desk, “Where’s the director?” The footsteps approached rapidly from behind.
Without turning her head, Lin Shanchu dodged her body to the side to avoid Jiang Ziyu.
As she dodged, Jiang Ziyu smashed the ashtray in his hand onto the desk.
To smash such a thick glass with his bare hands, he must have used all his strength.
Lin Shanchu maintained her balance and looked up, immediately noticing the phone on the bookshelf.
The phone’s camera was pointed in her direction.
She reached out and grabbed the phone. The screen showed that it was recording.
“Does Tang Qidai know how to do anything else besides using these cheap tricks?” Lin Shanchu tossed the phone into the fish tank.
She had been operating single-handedly the entire time with her right hand still in her pocket.
Jiang Ziyu was displeased with Lin Shanchu’s comment on Tang Qidai and yelled at her angrily, “Shut up! You’re not worthy of mentioning Daidai’s name.”
Lin Shanchu blinked in surprise, “You got so angry at the mere mention of
Tang Qidai’s name. Do you really care about her that much?”
Jiang Ziyu saw that Lin Shanchu was slowly retreating as she spoke and thought that she was only pretending to appear calm. She must be trembling deep down.
Of course, this woman was frail and feeble. She did not have the strength to resist him at all. It would be strange if she was not afraid.
“I told you, you’re not worthy of mentioning her name!” Jiang Ziyu pressed forward step by step.
He must help Daidai get rid of this woman today!
“Tang Qidai is a b * tch.” Lin Shanchu provoked him with the most innocent voice and a smile.
By now, she already had her back facing the window. She had no way out.
Jiang Ziyu finally burst into a rage and charged toward Lin Shanchu with a vicious expression.
“How dare you insult my Daidai?! I’ll kill yo-”
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by the sound of a sharp object piercing through flesh.
Jiang Ziyu’s eyes widened in disbelief as he slowly lowered his head to look down at his own body…
