Chapter 117: Message Sent, but Rejected by the Other Party

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li MO felt that he couldn’t explain everything clearly.

...

“Why don’t I give Big Brother a call?” He finally decided.

As soon as he finished speaking, a new message notification sounded in the car.

Lin Shanchu’s phone showed a new message.

The sender’s number was also very unfamiliar.

But Lin Shanchu felt that the phone number looked familiar as if she had seen it somewhere before.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.

Wasn’t this Huo Xunzhou’s phone number?

She had seen it when she was helping Li MO answer the phone.

Lin Shanchu wrote a long message, but she deleted everything in the end and sent a punctuation mark instead.

Lin Shanchu wrote, [?]

Huo Xunzhou replied, [The password to my house.]

The password to his house?

Was he inviting her to stay at his house?

The last time she burned down Lu Shiyuan’s house, he only agreed to take her in because she begged him the whole time.

This time, he was actually so proactive.

Lin Shanchu asked, [Huo Xunzhou?]

Huo Xunzhou replied, [Yeah.]

Lin Shanchu said, [Thank you.]

Huo Xunzhou stated, [I’m boarding.]

Lin Shanchu answered, [Have a safe journey.]

Huo Xunzhou replied, [Okay.]

Lin Shanchu briefly browsed through their information.

In just a few short sentences, there were two short words that indicated ‘okay’.

When this man was in the mood, he would become very bored and childish.

Usually, he was a man of few words if he could help it.

The car happened to pass by an intersection.

While waiting for the green light, Li MO took out his phone and called Huo

Xunzhou.

Then, he muttered softly, “Why did he turn off his phone?” Lin Shanchu reminded him subconsciously, “He’s boarded his plane.” “How did you know that?” Li MO asked in puzzlement.

“We just texted each other.” Lin Shanchu rubbed her nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

“Oh. Why aren’t you guys chatting on WeChat?” Li MO nodded.

“We didn’t add each other on WeChat.”

“Huh?”

Li MO looked confused and disappointed.

Big Brother and Ms. Lin were already quite close, yet they hadn’t even added each other on WeChat!

The progress was too slow!

Li Mo’s disappointment was too genuine, causing Lin Shanchu to feel like she had let him down.

“I’ll add him now.”

Lin Shanchu searched for Huo Xunzhou’s number and added him as a friend on WeChat right in front of Li Mo.

Li MO was satisfied.

Ms. Lin took the initiative to add Big Brother on WeChat.

He would definitely be happy.

Today, Li MO still played the role of Huo Xunzhou’s considerate subordinate.

The next morning.

The first thing Lin Shanchu did when she woke up was to check her WeChat.

There was no message on WeChat saying that Huo Xunzhou had accepted her friend request.

Why hadn’t Huo Xunzhou accepted her friend request?

Wait, why was she looking forward to it?

Lin Shanchu grabbed her hair in frustration before getting out of bed to wash up.

Li MO missed Lin Shanchu’s cooking.

He had ordered groceries online when he came back last night.

Thinking that Li MO had been following her around for the whole day, Lin Shanchu made two simple dishes.

Li MO enjoyed the meal so much he was close to licking his plate clean.

There were still some ingredients left for breakfast.

Just as breakfast was ready, Li MO returned from the outside.

“Good morning, Ms. Lin! ” Li MO ran into the kitchen and stared at the breakfast that was just served.

Lin Shanchu handed him a loaded plate.

Li MO was very touched and bowed to Lin Shan Chu on the spot. “Thank you, Sister-in-law.”

The air suddenly fell silent. “I didn’t sleep well, so I’m a little talkative today.”

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

While eating breakfast, Lin Shanchu scrolled through Weibo to see what was going on.

Lu Shiyuan’s incident was still very popular.

Jing Ming’s fans were still active.

Lin Shanchu couldn’t let things end this easily.

She had to find Qi Cheng today.

From what Jing Ming’s fans said, it was not difficult to tell that Jing Ming and Qi Cheng had a very good relationship back then.

Therefore, Qi Cheng must have known something about Jing Ming’s death.

Perhaps Qi Cheng had solid evidence that could prove Lu Shiyuan’s involvement in Jing Ming’s death.

Li MO, on the other hand, was secretly taking pictures and sending them to Huo Xunzhou.

He said, [Big Brother, Ms. Lin made breakfast.]

He then continued, [Ms. Lin’s cooking still tastes great.]

Then, he started to send Huo Xunzhou pictures of his breakfast.

Last night, he also took a picture of his dinner and sent it to Huo Xunzhou.

However, Huo Xunzhou didn’t reply.

Li MO had no idea what his big brother was busy with.

He took three breakfast pictures.

Once he was done sending the first picture, a red exclamation mark appeared at the end of the second picture when he tried to send it.

There was also a line of small words that said, [The message has been sent, but the other party has rejected it.]

Li MO scratched his head and asked Lin Shanchu, “Miss Lin, I sent a WeChat message to someone. It said, ‘The message has been sent, but the other party rejected it’. What does that mean?”

“The other party blocked you.” Lin Shanchu didn’t even raise her head.

Lin Shanchu logged out of Weibo and opened WeChat to see that Huo Xunzhou had accepted her friend request.

A hint of a smile unconsciously flashed across her eyes.

She opened the chatbox between the two of them, tapped her finger on the screen twice, and exited the app.

Adding Huo Xunzhou as a friend didn’t mean that she had to start a conversation with him.

Besides…

If they had to talk about something, why didn’t Huo Xunzhou take the initiative to send her a message?

Lin Shanchu exited WeChat and placed her phone on the table.

Meanwhile, Huo Xunzhou was still staring at his phone.

To be more precise, he was staring at Lin Shanchu’s WeChat chatbox.

Just now, it clearly showed that the other party was typing.

However, he had waited for a long time, but there were still no messages from Lin Shanchu.

On the other hand, Li MO had sent him Lin Shanchu’s cooking last night and this morning.

Heh.

He was annoyed by Li Mo’s pictures.

Therefore, he blacklisted him.

Just as Huo Xunzhou was thinking of sending a message to Lin Shanchu, his bodyguard walked over.

“Mr. Huo, the car is ready. We can set off now,” he said respectfully.

Li MO drove Lin Shanchu out of Huo Xunzhou’s house.

She went straight to Qi Cheng’s house.

Not long after he started driving, Li Mo’s expression changed slightly.

“Ms. Lin, sit tight.”

Lin Shanchu grabbed the armrest and braced herself.

Seeing that Li MO kept looking in the rearview mirror, Lin Shanchu asked, someone following us?”

‘Yes.”

Li MO continued in a comforting tone, “But I’ll be able to get rid of him soon. Don’t worry, Ms. Lin.” Lin Shanchu smiled.

She believed in Li Mo’s ability.

However, who could be following her?

Lu Shiyuan was still at the police station.

If there was no conclusive evidence, Lu Shiyuan would have to be detained for at least 24 hours before he could come out. Therefore, it was definitely not Lu Shiyuan.

Could it be Tang Qidai?

That was not right either.

Tang Qidai wasn’t that capable.

Besides, Tang Qidai had no idea where Huo Xunzhou lived.

Even if Tang Qidai knew where he lived, she didn’t know that Lin Shanchu was staying with him.

Who could it be?

“Don’t shake them off. Drive to a place with fewer people.” She wanted to see who was following her right now.

Li MO immediately understood what Lin Shanchu meant. He drove the car to a less crowded area with complicated road conditions.

The car followed closely behind them. Soon, it caught up to them..
