Terminally Ill Female Lead Of An Angst Novel Went Rampant After Her Awakening

5. Female, Alive

She pulled up her collar to cover the strangled marks on her neck before she reached out to knock on the door.

Knock! Knock!

A moment later, a male stranger's voice came from inside.

"Come in."

Lin Shanchu pushed the door open and immediately saw Huo Xunzhou sitting by the window.

He was sitting in a wheelchair with a book in his hand. He was so focused on reading that he didn't seem to notice that someone had come in.

The man next to Huo Xunzhou pushed him and said excitedly, "Yingzhou, a young girl is looking for you."

Huo Xunzhou ignored him.

Lin Shanchu's eyes fell on that person.

With one look, she realized that it was someone she knew.

"Mr. Nan."

"You know me?" The man was surprised.

Huo Xunzhou turned around and looked at her. His alluring eyes were so indifferent that no emotion could be seen.

"You're Nan Mu, the ace manager in the entertainment industry. It's difficult to not have heard of you." Nan Mu was also Huo Xunzhou's manager. After Huo Xunzhou retired from the industry, he no longer managed any artists. Instead, he started his own management company.

"I didn't expect that there would still be legends about me in the industry despite me not managing any artists." Nan Mu placed his hand on Huo Xunzhou's shoulder while looking quite proud of himself.

Huo Xunzhou only shot Nan Mu a glance. The latter immediately retracted his hand as if he had burned it.

Then, Huo Xunzhou looked at Lin Shanchu and asked, "Are you looking for me?"

"Yeah," Lin Shanchu replied.

She glanced at Nan Mu.

Nan Mu didn't understand what she meant and even smiled at her in a friendly manner.

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

Huo Xunzhou put down the book in his hand and looked at Nan Mu as if he was a fool. "She wants you to leave."

Nan Mu was speechless.

After Nan Mu left, only the two of them were left in the room.

Huo Xunzhou looked at Lin Shanchu calmly before gesturing for her to speak quickly.

Lin Shanchu was just about to open her mouth when a sharp pain emitted from her body.

She pursed her lips tightly as her face turned pale. "Can I get closer to you?"

Huo Xunzhou remained silent.

Lin Shanchu felt that if he did not refuse, it meant that he agreed.

She walked forward, and the pain in her body lessened slightly with every step she took toward Huo Xunzhou.

It was until the tip of her shoe was only a few millimeters away from touching Huo Xunzhou's shoe.

"Lin Shanchu." Huo Xunzhou frowned.

He had never seen a woman who was so insatiable.

He used his original voice in all the movies and TV series, so his magnetic voice was very recognizable.

Lin Shanchu felt that her name sounded particularly nice when he said it.

"I'm sorry." Lin Shanchu took a small step back.
