Chapter 176 Those demons and monsters, are they probably not just figments of imagination?
The next morning, Lin Zhihao and He Manman went out to work, and when He's parents left home, they took their personal belongings back to the old house.
"Don't come back here after get off work today. Go back to the old house. I'll have the driver pick you up."
While straightening He Manman's disheveled collar, He's mother gave her instructions.
"Okay." He Manman closed her eyes and let her mother do whatever she wanted.
Lin Zhihao, dressed and ready, was having her makeup done. The makeup artist was fixing her hair, while her father, Mr. He, was feeding her porridge. He didn't understand why he was doing this, but it was his wife's order. Sigh...
"Alright, go ahead. If you want to, go. If you don't, quit and go home to raise your eldest daughter."
Downstairs in the residential complex, a light drizzle was falling from the sky, and a cold wind brushed against Lin Zhihao's neck. Lin Zhihao waved goodbye to He's mother.
"Just three more days, and I'll have a semi-vacation! Ah~~"
Lin Zhihao, sitting in the car, yawned.
"I have five more days~"
"Keep it up, bro. You promised to use the money you earned before the New Year to give me a red envelope for the New Year."
"I know, I know, how could I miss out on your big red envelope, Sister Lin, and also Father He and Mother He's, hehe."
Lin Zhihao had sent He Manman a family card before, so she wasn't short of money. However, for He Manman, sending New Year's red envelopes with money she had earned herself had a very different meaning.
"Oh right, Sister Lin, it's that funny thing, guess what I saw on social media today."
"Ok?"
"His account was banned; it was the one he was most proud of, the one with a million followers."
"Tsk, it's bound to get banned, I knew it a long time ago."
"what?"
“He offends people everywhere he goes. It’s one thing to prank strangers, but this time he’s run into me. Although I don’t have many fans, I have a lot of popularity, so naturally a lot of people will pay attention to him. If he posted something positive, that would be fine, he would get free traffic. But he’s disgusting and bullies people in front of the camera.”
"Indeed, but I'm just curious, Sister Lin, how come you're always trending on social media? Is that little mouse behind you so powerful? Spending money on you every day. People say, where the money is, there's love. Could it be one of your die-hard fans?"
"Fuck you."
Lin Zhihao gently nudged He Manman.
"This is definitely a bad one, and a fat rat with a big appetite. Its target is the He and Shen families."
"It's strange. Logically speaking, if you want the He and Shen families, you should go with He's parents. Why are you being targeted? They post everything you do online."
"Business warfare is so dangerous. Haven't you heard of some businesses that have killed someone else's money tree with hot water during business battles?"
Lin Zhihao said with a serious expression, "I guess it's that money tree."
"..."
Looking at Lin Zhihao's unreliable behavior, He Manman remained silent.
Is this something to joke about? This could be deadly from time to time.
He Manman saw that Lin Zhihao didn't seem to care at all. It seemed that she would have to rely on her to find out the big boss behind it all.
Although this novel was terrible, she had still finished reading it. She carefully recalled the plot and realized that the reason the female lead was made to suffer so much was because the scheme had started when she was very young.
Based on her years of experience as a novel enthusiast, Lin Jie is absolutely certain that the female protagonist's fate is linked to Lin Jie's, and it's even possible that the two of them are connected.
At this moment, He Manman was a little annoyed by her ability to skim through novels. Well, the time had come for her to shine and dazzle everyone, but she could only remember the love and hate between the male and female protagonists.
Tsk, romance novels are a killer!
He Manman was lost in her own thoughts and didn't speak to Lin Zhihao again until they reached the company building.
In the underground parking garage, Lin Zhihao and He Manman parted ways and met up with Yang Yang at the company.
"Brother Lou."
"Ah."
"Teacher Shi is already waiting upstairs."
"it is good."
Lin Zhihao pushed open the office door, and Shi Xingchen was already seated. Lin Zhihao was the second to arrive.
"elder sister."
Seeing Lin Zhihao push the door open and come in, Shi Xingchen got up to greet her.
"Sit, sit, sit, you're welcome."
Shi Xingchen is simply a chosen one with high emotional intelligence; even his unintentional actions make people feel that he is humble.
"Everyone's here." Nani pushed open the door and came in.
Shi Xingchen stood up to greet her again, and Lin Zhihao also stood up, "President Nani."
"sit down."
The three of them took their seats.
"This time, the main issue is the development plan for the later stages of the series. We've been in the production for a while now and have participated in some variety shows, both big and small. Since our main focus is on acting, taking on new roles and joining new productions is a must."
"okokokok."
Nani didn't say a word, and Lin Zhihao just nodded.
Nani chuckled, "You don't need to keep nodding."
"Mmm." Lin Zhihao nodded twice more.
Nani shook her head helplessly.
"The film 'Shadow' is currently being filmed, but..."
While the three were busy planning inside the meeting room, He Manman in the dressing room was also busy.
To prevent her memory from fading, He Manman had started recalling the contents of the novel and recording them in her memo after Lin Zhihao fell into a coma for three days.
When Sister Lin wasn't around, she would type away on her phone, trying to recall every detail she had overlooked.
Sister Lin transmigrated into the body of the female protagonist in a novel and was unconscious for three days before waking up. If transmigration can happen, then how could those ghosts and immortals be mere figments of imagination?
In the novel, there is a very powerful temple, and she has been looking for an opportunity to visit it.
With a creak, the dressing room door opened, attracting He Manman's attention. She turned off her phone, looked up, and saw the person in front of her wearing a cloak, with not a single inch of skin showing.
"?"
"you are?"
The person didn't respond, but walked directly towards He Manman and placed a wooden plaque in front of her.
He didn't say a word, but just pointed at the wooden sign with his finger.
Puzzled, He Manman picked up the wooden sign to examine it, only to find it to be an ordinary wooden sign.
She looked at the other person, and even through the fabric, He Manman could feel that the other person was looking at her.
Seeing that He Manman had grasped the wooden plaque in her hand, the cloaked figure left.
The door to the dressing room was closed and then pushed open again.
"Teacher He, I'll do your makeup today."
The makeup artist walked in and skillfully set up her tools. He Manman stared at her.
The makeup artist was puzzled when she noticed He Manman's gaze.
"what happened?"
Did you encounter any strange people today?
"Strange people?" The makeup artist thought back, "No, they're all regular colleagues. What's wrong?"
"fine."
He Manman looked at the wooden plaque in her palm, put it away, and then let the makeup artist work on her face. Staring at herself in the mirror, her mind was filled with thoughts.
