Chapter 122: I Caught You

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li MO peeked out from behind the door, looking a little nervous.

When the door was kicked open, he saw Ms. Lin standing on the railing.

She looked like she was about to jump off the building at any moment.

He was not as smart and talkative as his big brother, so he remained where he was to guard the door instead of approaching her.

Due to the distance, he couldn’t hear what Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou were saying.

The sight of Lin Shanchu’s expression made Li MO feel that the situation wasn’t looking good.

However, there would definitely not be any problems once Big Brother made his move.

Li MO retracted his gaze and continued to be a gatekeeper obediently.

Meanwhile, Huo Xunzhou’s expression was still cold and distant.

His face would not show any obvious expressions that reflected his emotions.

At this moment, his face was unusually serious.

“Are you afraid that I will jump off the building?” Lin Shanchu asked.

“You won’t,” Huo Xunzhou said confidently.

“Do you think that you’re very powerful? Do you think that everything is under your control? Do you think that everything will go as you wish?” Lin Shanchu sneered.

She really envied Huo Xunzhou.

Huo Xunzhou always got what he wanted.

She just wanted to live like a normal person, but she couldn’t.

She was so envious that she was starting to become jealous.

But he was such a kind man.

He was so smart.

He even lent her a helping hand.

However, he was not the main character of this world.

The so-called special role was just a supporting role to add icing on the cake for the main character.

Lu Shiyuan wasn’t worthy of Huo Xunzhou’s help!

“No.” Huo Xunzhou’s voice was a little lower than before, revealing a trace of nervousness he couldn’t hide.

Lin Shanchu smiled at him.

“No, you will definitely get what you want.”

She gave him her blessings with a smile on her face.

She sounded like she was leaving her final words behind.

Huo Xunzhou’s expression changed.

His body reacted unexpectedly quickly.

He was only two steps away from Lin Shanchu.

The moment he raised his foot, Lin Shanchu smiled and leaned backward.

The expected sense of weightlessness did not come.

Lin Shanchu looked up. Huo Xunzhou had one hand on the railing while the other hand gripped her tightly.

“You’re really afraid that I’ll jump off the building.” Lin Shanchu laughed.

For some reason, her casual tone angered Huo Xunzhou.

“You won’t jump down!” He raised his voice, which was rare. It was also filled with anger.

“But I’ve already jumped.” Lin Shanchu tilted her head in confusion.

“I caught you.” The extreme reaction just now made Huo Xunzhou pant a little, Dut ms tone was unusually nrm.

It was as if no matter what happened, he would never let go of her hand.

The sound of the wind on the rooftop and the noise of the city disappeared in an instant.

The entire world was silent.

Only Huo Xunzhou’s voice could be heard.

Lin Shanchu stared at him blankly.

“Give me your other hand too.”

Lin Shanchu seemed to be under a spell as she raised her other hand and stretched it toward Huo Xunzhou.

Huo Xunzhou grabbed her hand and pulled her up.

Lin Shanchu climbed up the railing again, feeling exhausted.

Huo Xunzhou held her waist with both hands, his expression still grim. “Come down. I’ll catch you.”

Lin Shanchu jumped.

The moment she landed, she ended up collapsing into Huo Xunzhou.

She heard Huo Xunzhou heave a sigh of relief.

Li MO, who was observing the situation from time to time by the door, turned his head and saw the two of them hugging each other.

As the biggest fan of Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu’s relationship, he couldn’t miss out on any moment of their intimacy.

Li MO took out his phone and started taking pictures of the two of them.

He didn’t forget to share them with Nan Mu once he was done.

Nan Mu replied immediately after seeing the pictures.

Nan Mu: [Where are they?]

Nan Mu: [Aren’t these two being a little too outrageous? Aren’t they worried about getting their pictures taken? The scandal of a girl group’s potential member who has a fiancé having an affair with a retired movie star is quite exciting.]

Li Mo: [What a good speech. Don’t bring it up ever again.]

Lin Shanchu leaned on Huo Xunzhou’s shoulder at that moment. She was very conscious of the arm that was wrapped around her waist. So, when was Huo Xunzhou going to let her go?

But she was too embarrassed to ask.

She didn’t plan on dying just now.

However, when she saw Huo Xunzhou, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was no point in living.

The more she thought about it, the more jealous she became of Huo Xunzhou.

Therefore, when Huo Xunzhou said that she wouldn’t jump, she was so emotional that she jumped off the building right away.

The recollection made her feel slightly awl«vard.

Huo Xunzhou seemed to have sensed what she was thinking, seeing as he released her at that moment.

Their eyes met, and Huo Xunzhou spoke first. “Aren’t you going to thank me this time?”

“I thought you don’t accept verbal gratitude,” Lin Shanchu replied.

Huo Xunzhou didn’t Imow what to say.

He looked at the railing that was just a few feet away. Then, he pulled Lin Shanchu toward the stairwell.

This was not the place to talk.

Lin Shanchu followed behind Huo Xunzhou obediently.

Huo Xunzhou continued to pull her with one hand while sending a message on his phone with the other before putting it back into his pocket.

At this moment, the system’s voice sounded in Lin Shanchu’s mind.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the daily task of getting close to Huo Xunzhou. There’s a limited- time promotion right now to celebrate the system’s upgrade. The host can choose between a health restoration card and a hint card.]

An ongoing limited-time promotion? Another hint card?

After this useless system was upgraded, it became more flashy.

“I’ll have the hint card.” Lin Shanchu chose the second option without hesitation.

She wanted to see what tricks the useless system had up its sleeve.

The system replied, [I will now broadcast the contents of the hint card to the host.

[Zong Pei’s current girlfriend has no idea that he studied at Xu City General

High seven years ago and that he had a bad reputation there.]

‘who is zong pei?”

The system said, [A hotfix will be patched in the system in order to fix the problems. The system will serve the host next time.]

Lin Shanchu began to suspect that she had made the wrong choice by choosing the hint card.

When Li MO saw the two of them coming over, he quickly went up to them.

“The entire building had a blackout just now. I don’t know if the elevator can be used.”

“Why is there a blackout?” This was the first time Lin Shanchu heard that the

Lu Corporation experienced a blackout.

This had never happened before.

“I don’t know the specific reason.”

Huo Xunzhou led her to the elevator without saying a word.

He was very confident that the elevator would work.

Lin Shanchu turned to look at him thoughtfully.

The corridor was pitch black.

He could vaguely hear the noises coming from the secretary’s office not far away.

When they reached the elevator, Lin Shanchu realized that the elevator button’s light wasn’t on.

“Looks like we can only take the stairs.”

The next second, the elevator button’s indicator light lit up.

The corridor was still pitch black.

The elevator had its own power supply, so it was normal for this to happen.

After entering the elevator, Lin Shanchu reminded Huo Xunzhou, “Put on your mask. ”

There were surveillance cameras in the elevator.

Huo Xunzhou was such a cautious person, yet he had forgotten to wear a mask.

As Lin Shanchu thought about this, she looked up at the surveillance camera above her.

However, she realized that the indicator light of the surveillance camera wasn’t

turned on at all..
