His tone was gentle with a hint of guidance.

Lin Shanchu pursed her lips, thinking about where to start.

“For example, why am I not restricted by the plot when I’m with you now?” Huo

Xunzhou said softly. “I want to know the reason behind this.”

He took the initiative to mention this matter, giving Lin Shanchu, who who did not Imow where to start, the opportunity to speak.

“It’s because of my uncle.”

After saying those words, it became easier for her to continue.

“To be precise, it’s Number 1357 from the sweet system.”

A look of flashed across Huo Xunzhou’s face before it disappeared without a trace.

“Isn’t he your uncle?”

Lin Shanchu smiled, but the smile on her face quickly faded.

“When I found out about it, I had the same thoughts as you. If he’s Number 1357, then where’s my uncle?”

Lin Shanchu looked up at him and asked, “Do you still remember I told you about my uncle’s ending in the original book?”

Huo Xunzhou said softly, “I remember it.”

“Number 1357 said that it died in the original book because it failed its mission, so it became a character in the book, receiving punishment while completing its mission.”

After finished speaking,                stared at Huo Xunzhou for a moment and asked, “Do you understand what I’m saying?”

Huo Xunzhou asked thoughtfully, “Why is it under punishment?”

“According to it, it was in charge of the operations of sweet s, but I don’t Imow what kind of dereliction of duty caused this world to become an angst .”

“Dereliction of duty?” Huo Xunzhou sneered. “In that case, everything that happened to you in the past was because of it?”

Lin Shanchu replied, “Hmm, you can say so.”

Huo Xunzhou stopped talking. Instead, he raised his hand and slowly loosened his tie as his expression turned cold.

Lin Shanchu felt that he looked like he was about to fight someone.

He was not going to start a fight with Number 1357, was he?

However, Number 1357 was wearing her uncle’s face…

Lin Shanchu quickly tried to persuade him. “But it’s still useful. When we’re together, you won’t be controlled by the plot as long as it’s present.” Huo Xunzhou said coldly, “Even if it’s not present, I can still control myself.”

He just needed to endure the pain caused by the plot.

This was nothing.

Didn’t Lin Shanchu go through the same thing before?

If she could endure it, what could he not?

Lin Shanchu smiled at him and said, “I know, but we can’t let it off easy, right?

It owes me everything!”

Huo Xunzhou kept quiet with a slightly softened expression.

Number 1357, who was hiding in the room, leaned against the door from time to time to listen for any movements.

Unfortunately, the soundproofing of the room was so good that he could not hear the content of their conversation at all.

After a long time, he heard movement outside and opened the door.

Huo Xunzhou was about to go back, so Lin Shanchu stood up to see him off. Right after the two of them stood up from the sofa, they heard the commotion and looked at Number 1357 in unison.

He only had eyes for Lin Shanchu, so he seriously looked at her and asked,

“Aren’t you going to ask Huo Xunzhou to stay the night?”

Shanchu speechlessly glared at Number 1357 and then turned around, only to find Huo Xunzhou looking expectantly at her with a puzzled look.

Lin Shanchu remembered the last time she went to find Huo Xunzhou at his house, he restrained himself all night.

Hmph.

Lin Shanchu sneered and glared at Huo Xunzhou.

Huo Xunzhou was a little confused. Weren’t the two of them having a good chat just now? Why did she suddenly fall out with him?

“You should go home.” Lin Shanchu sat on the sofa and did not even want to see Huo Xunzhou off after saying those words.

Huo Xunzhou stood there silently and thought for a moment. He still could not figure out why she was suddenly angry.

“I’ll be leaving then?” His feet showed no signs of moving and his tone was filled with anticipation.

Lin Shanchu leaned against the back of the sofa and looked at him lazily. “Goodbye. ”

Judging from her attitude, Huo Xunzhou confirmed that she really did not want to see him off.

He pursed his lips, turned around and gave Number 1357 a cold glance before leaving.

Huo Xunzhou’s sharp gaze made Number 1357’s heart skip a beat. He carefully leaned against the corner and dared not move an inch.

After Huo Xunzhou left, Number 1357 walked over to Lin Shanchu.

“Your relationship with Huo Xunzhou seems to be very stable. Why didn’t you have any more in-depth communication?”

Lin Shanchu frowned as he looked at Number 1357.

“What kind of in-depth communication?”

“It’s the kind of in-depth communication that you’re thinking about right now.”

“Did you read my thoughts again?”

“I didn’t. I saw it. Your thoughts are written on your face.”

Lin Shanchu blushed and touched her face. “Is it that obvious?”

“Does he have an invisible illness?” Number 1357 asked worriedly as he sat down beside her.

Lin Shanchu looked at him angrily and shouted, “You’re the one with the invisible illness!”

Number 1357 heaved a sigh of relief and said, “It’s good that he doesn’t have any invisible illness.”

Lin Shanchu looked at him suspiciously. “What if Huo Xunzhou has an invisible illness?”

“The male lead will be changed.”

Lin Shanchu suddenly remembered the issue of the official partner that Huo Xunzhou had been concerned about.

“You said that I’m the female lead of the sweet . Then who’s my official partner?”

Number 1357 thought for a long time and shook his head.

“I don’t remember.”

Helpless, Lin Shanchu poked his chest and asked, “What’s the difference between you and Number 2580?”

Number 1357 felt wronged. “I’m still somewhat affected by Number 2580. My reading of the initial plot is limited, so I can only remember the most important parts. ”

Lin Shanchu did not quite understand him. “Isn’t the male lead the most important part?”

“No.” Number 1357 shook his head and said, “To me, the safety of the female lead is the most important thing.” His words touched Lin Shanchu.

She was a little touched.

Although Number 1357 looked like a useless piece of trash now, he really bent on looking out for her.

It was as if his existence was for her sake.

Lin Shanchu now found him more pleasing to the eye.

“Based on your experience, is Huo Xunzhou my official partner?”

“Probably.”

There was no difference between saying it and not saying it.

Lin Shanchu’s phone on the coffee table vibrated.

Yun Jin sent her a message.

Yun Jin: [Shanshan, quickly go and like my Moments post!]

He either called her “Sister-in-law” or “Sister” previously, but now he called her “Shanshan” so smoothly.

Thinking about it, she had only met Yun Jin a few times and did not spend much time with him, but he naturally asked her to like his Moments post.

Was this the legendary social butterfly?

Lin Shanchu did not reply to him immediately. Instead, she turned on the Moments.

She did not have many friends on WeChat. Basically, as long as someone posted something on their Moments, she would be able to see it with just one swipe.

She immediately saw the Yun Jin’s new post on his Moments, which was posted two minutes ago.

Yun Jin was wearing a green coat and the wristwatch she had given him while taking a selfie in front of the mirror. He even deliberately raised his wrist to show it in a conspicuous position..
