Number 1357 choked.

He felt that the cake in his mouth was no longer delicious.

Unconvinced, Number 1357 glared at him and shouted, “You’re not even married! Who’s your wife?!”

“It’s just a certificate,” Huo Xunzhou snorted. “She will be my wife after I take it later.”

“What a annoying fellow.” Number 1357 continued to glare at him.

“Wait in the car,” Huo Xunzhou said, not minding Number 1357’s scolding. Number 1357 snorted coldly. “Why should I listen to you?”

Huo Xunzhou said indifferently, “Shanshan told me to come find you.”

Huo Xunzhou and Number 1357 could not stand each other and refused to talk to each other.

However, Lin Shanchu was in between them.

As long as Lin Shanchu was mentioned, the other party would be docile.

Number 1357 had a look that he was going to engage in a fight to the finish just now, but he kept his cool when he heard Lin Shanchu’s name.

Huo Xunzhou made Number 1357 get into the car. When he went to look for Lin Shanchu, he seemed to have thought of something and turned to look at Number 1357.

“What’s the matter?”

“What have you done recently?” Huo Xunzhou asked.

Number 1357 tilted his head with a puzzled expression.

Huo Xunzhou lowered his voice and said, “I’ve spent time with Shanshan recently, but I don’t feel any pain anymore.”

The pain did not disappear suddenly.

It gradually weakened during his interactions with Lin Shanchu until he could barely feel it recently.

He felt that Number 1357 definitely knew the reason.

Number 1357 leaned against the window as he said casually, “Your body is immune to it probably because you’ve been with my daughter for a long time.”

Huo Xunzhou frowned slightly and said noncommittally, “Wait in the car. Don’t run around.”

He turned around and returned to the cakery.

She stood in the crowd with a bright smile and radiating beauty.

This was what Huo Xunzhou once imagined Lin Shanchu should look like.

She should be like this.

She should not have been suppressed by that ridiculous plot and walked towards the precipice step by step.

Lin Shanchu felt Huo Xunzhou’s gaze and looked over.

Huo Xunzhou nodded at her, indicating that he had found Number 1357.

Lin Shanchu received the message and smiled at him before lowering her head to talk to the person beside her.

Huo Xunzhou stood quietly by the entrance and waited patiently until more and more people came to the cakery.

Most of them rushed over after learning the news that Lin Shanchu was here.

If he stayed any longer, he might not be able to leave today.

Huo Xunzhou strode towards Lin Shanchu.

He protected Lin Shanchu as they walked out. His indifferent expression looked somewhat unfriendly.

“Sorry, we still have to deal with some private matters. Please make way.”

Huo Xunzhou’s aura was strong. The moment he spoke, the crowd instantly fell silent.

All the surrounding people who initially wanted to take pictures of Lin Shanchu moved aside.

At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted, “Kiss before you leave!”

“Brother-in-law, go!”

Brother-in-law?

Huo Xunzhou stopped in his tracks and asked Lin Shanchu softly, “Are they calling me Brother-in-law?”

Was he really no longer popular?

He did not even have a single fan?

They were all Lin Shanchu’s fans.

No one called Lin Shanchu “Sister-in-law”. Everyone called him “Brother-in-law”.

Lin Shanchu saw his self-doubt and couldn’t help but laugh. “Yeah.”

“Brother-in-law, hurry up and kiss her!”

“Brother-in-law, are you impotent?”

Huo Xunzhou looked up and locked his eyes on the fans who said he was impotent.

The fans retreated in fear.

Brother-in-law’s eyes were so scary.

He was not really impotent, was he?

Huo Xunzhou wrapped his arms around Lin Shanchu’s waist and gently pulled her into his embrace.

Lin Shanchu put her hand on his shoulder and whispered, “Just a casual kiss will do. We have to get down to business… Mmph.”

Huo Xunzhou’s kiss swallowed her last words.

Screams rang out from all around.

Lin Shanchu wanted to push Huo Xunzhou away after the kiss, but unexpectedly, he did not show any signs of letting go of her with his hand remained still on her waist.

The screams around them never stopped.

Huo Xunzhou only let go of Lin Shanchu when she was almost out of breath from the kiss.

Lin Shanchu’s legs gave out from the lack of oxygen.

Huo Xunzhou slowly looked up at the fans who had just said that he was impotent.

The fans were sensible. “Brother-in-law is potent!”

“Brother-in-law is amazing!”

Satisfied, Huo Xunzhou held Lin Shanchu in his arms and strode away with his head held high.

Lin Shanchu was speechless as she saw what happened.

She really felt that there was no other man in the world was more petty than Huo Xunzhou.

The owner of the cakery was also afraid of accidents due to the large number of people. When Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu went out, the owner escorted them all the way until the two of them got into the car before returning to the cakery.

Once Lin Shanchu got into the car, Number 1357 peeked at her from behind.

“Shanshan, Happy New Year!”

“Happy New Year. “

“Shanshan, you have so many fans. I feel that the character of a top-notch celebrity is quite interesting.” “Who is top-notch?”

“You.”

“I’m not. I’m not even as popular as Huo Xunzhou.”

“No one paid attention to him in the cakery just now,” said Number 1357, who finally got the chance to mock Huo Xunzhou.

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

He was right.

Lin Shanchu turned around and stole a glance at Huo Xunzhou. Number 1357 took the opportunity and whispered, “Has-been Best Actor.”

“What does it matter?” Huo Xunzhou curled his lips and smiled faintly. “My wife is a top-notch celebrity.”

Number 1357 fell silent.

Lin Shanchu turned to look at Number 1357. “You’re overthinking it. Huo Xunzhou isn’t a has-been. It’s just that most of the people I met at the cakery were my fans.”

Many of her fans supported her since the previous talent shows and variety shows, but most of them were solo stans.

They had accompanied her through ups and downs to this day. Even if Huo Xunzhou was beside them, they only had her in their eyes.

This was what people called favoritism.

“Let’s get down to business.” Lin Shanchu pulled a long face and turned to look at Number 1357. “What’s going on with Tang Qidai’s suicide?”

“Suicide means death,” Number 1357 seriously explained to her.

Lin Shanchu angrily took a deep breath and said, “I’ll give you a chance to rephrase your words.”

“She did commit suicide…” Number 1357’s tone was obviously guilty.

Judging from his tone, Lin Shanchu knew that her guess was right. Number 1357 must have done something.

“What did you do?”

“I just gave her a few nightmares,” Number 1357 said casually and even turned to look out the window.

“What kind of nightmare?”

“She dreamt of you.” Number 1357 blinked.

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

She was Tang Qidai’s nightmare.

Thai-

She did not expect that Number 1357 would be capable of psychological warfare.

However…

Lin Shanchu asked, “Isn’t this against the rules?”

Number 1357 looked indifferent. “Under normal circumstances, this would be considered against the rules. However, it’s no longer considered normal circumstances because of Number 2580’s interference. It’s already good enough that the plot can reach the ending.”

Lin Shanchu understood him.

Recalling Number 2580 who always mentioned the ending, she asked, “A happy ending?”
