Chapter 744 Qin Mo Arrives

Chapter 744 Qin Mo Arrives

Amidst the struggle of her thoughts, her gaze fell upon him, and she said politely but distantly, "Thank you for tonight."

They clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment.

Hate is hate.

Help is help.

"Isn't a verbal thank you a bit insincere?" Huo Sinian said unhurriedly, his eyes behind his glasses looking at her naturally.

Lin Tan: "This is all the sincerity we have."

Huo Sinian: "Aren't you going to treat me to a meal?"

Lin Tan: "I have no money."

Huo Sinian: "Didn't Qin Mo find you a job? Doesn't the company pay you?"

Lin Tan did not answer.

She felt that replying to him was the biggest mistake she had ever made.

Although she didn't know what Huo Sinian had gotten into today, it had nothing to do with her.

He doesn't care what he does, as long as he doesn't treat her the way he used to.

"Or do you prefer the old Jingzhou version to this one?" Huo Sinian asked.

Lin Tan immediately looked at him.

Huo Sinian and she locked eyes.

One is reserved and repressed, the other is free-spirited and unrestrained.

"Boss." Secretary Ye walked over, breaking the awkward atmosphere between the two.

Huo Sinian glanced sideways.

Secretary Ye handed over the documents in her hand: "Those people have confessed. This is the information we found based on what they said. Someone told them that as long as they dug up dirt on Miss Lin Tan, they would be allowed to meet Zhou Shiying up close."

Zhou Shiying?

Lin Tan frowned slightly.

She remembered this person.

It was previously revealed that she played the second female lead in that drama, while Zhou Shiying played the third female lead.

At the time, their relationship on set was rather strained. The two women were very similar in appearance, acting style, and other aspects, and since they were from rival companies, they didn't get along very well.

Is this a company-wide action or a team action?

"What else did they say?" Huo Sinian asked casually as he took the documents.

"Miss Lin Tan's address was provided by the person who contacted them," Secretary Ye reported, handing over the tablet with the documents in her hand. "The person who contacted them was arranged by Zhou Shiying's team."

Huo Sinian looked at them: "Where are the photos and videos?"

Secretary Ye: "All of them were deleted, leaving no hidden dangers."

Huo Sinian hummed in agreement and then flipped through the documents in his hand.

After reading everything, close the document: "Send her a copy of what you found."

Secretary Ye: "Okay."

After saying that, he compiled all the information into data and sent it to Lin Tan's phone.

Lin Tan clicked on it.

When she finished reading it, her brow furrowed slightly.

I can't understand why Zhou Shiying's team would do something like this.

"The enemy is right in your face. Think carefully about whether to advance or retreat," Huo Sinian said calmly. "As long as you don't issue a permanent retirement statement, you will always be a thorn in their side."

After saying that...

Huo Sinian lifted his foot and left.

I didn't linger here.

Lin Tan was the only one left at the scene.

Ten minutes later.

She went home.

Sitting on the sofa in a bad mood, she stared at the information Secretary Ye had sent her on her phone screen, her mind filled with memories of the past.

Because several of her previously shelved dramas were all brought back to the screen, her popularity continued to rise in waves.

They've already surpassed Zhou Shiying.

The fans of the two sides sometimes argue and put each other down because of comparisons.

She thought that as long as she terminated her contract with the company, stopped acting, and faded out of the entertainment industry, she could find peace. Now it seems that she was overthinking it.

Although Huo Sinian is an annoying person, what he just said was correct.

As long as she doesn't issue a statement announcing her retirement from the entertainment industry, Zhou Shiying's team will continue to attack and smear her.

Only in this way.

Zhou Shiying is unique among people of the same type.

Before tonight's events, she could have backed out without a second thought, but now she's hesitant. Zhou Shiying's team wants to use her to climb to the top, so she should push forward and turn their attempts to undermine her into a publicity stunt.

Can--

Thinking about the past, she still had some reservations.

What if Huo Sinian resorts to tricks again after filming a movie?

Amidst a jumble of thoughts.

There was a knock on the door.

Lin Tanxin's heart tightened slightly, and she looked towards the door with some vigilance.

Who could it be so late?

Could it be that Huo Sinian didn't leave?

"Knock knock".

The knocking sounded again.

Lin Tan walked to the door with an uneasy heart, glancing at the smart peephole beside her. Seeing Qin Mo standing outside, her tension eased slightly, and she opened the door without hesitation.

The moment the door opened, Qin Mo's eyes met.

Those eyes, which were usually cold and indifferent, now held a hint of worry and concern.

"How are you?" Qin Mo asked.

Lin Tan was completely confused: "Huh?"

Qin Mo: "I heard from the property manager that your father came to cause you trouble."

After taking a shower, he saw several missed calls and messages on his phone. He didn't even have time to eat before leaving the house in his coat. The property manager said that Lin Tan had gone to talk to her father alone.

She also said she was a little unhappy.

But when they arrived, they were told she had already gone home.

He didn't know what she talked about with her father, but he knew she didn't get along with his parents.

"It's nothing, it's all taken care of." Lin Tan stepped aside to let him in, maintaining her polite and grateful attitude towards him throughout. "Thank you for coming so late."

Qin Mo followed her inside: "I don't think it's a hassle."

Lin Tan smiled slightly, and once again became the polite and gentle person she always was.

She went over and poured him a glass of water, placed it in front of him, and then sat down. "You don't need to come over for things like this in the future. I'm an adult, and I can handle most things on my own."

Qin Mo hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

In the end, he said nothing.

Lin Tan wanted to keep her distance from him, and she was afraid that too much interference would only annoy her.

"What does your dad want with you?" He changed the subject, then quickly added, afraid she would be upset, "If it's inconvenient, don't say. I'm just asking out of concern."

"You want money from me?" Lin Tan made up a random excuse.

She didn't want Qin Mo to know what happened tonight.

If he knew that Lin Jiancheng had conspired with others to frame her, he would definitely be worried and might even send people to investigate thoroughly, ultimately making him the one busy and troubled by this matter.

Having promised Madam Yu, she should keep her word.

Qin Mo believed him: "You want money?"

“He loves to gamble, and when he runs out of money, he’ll try every way to get it from me.” Lin Tan didn’t hide this from him, telling him half-truthfully, “I’m used to it.”

"You gave him the address?" Qin Mo was quite familiar with the security of his residence.

If Lin Tan hadn't said anything, her father was unlikely to have come looking for her.

Lin Tan: "No."

Qin Mo was about to ask.

Lin Tan said, "He called the police saying he was lost, and the police called me."

Although she was lying, her father had indeed done such things before.

She was afraid he would cause her trouble and disturb her and her neighbors' rest, so she moved again and again.

But he still managed to find us.

His solution was to tell the police that he had come to the big city to look for his daughter, but was now lost and couldn't find her, and asked them to help him contact her.

He's a great actor.

The police believed it every time.

He would even portray himself as a victim, working hard to provide for her, only to find that after she found a job, she wouldn't come home and would even curse them and threaten to cut ties with them.

If she hadn't brought up her part-time jobs during high school and college, she would definitely have received a verbal reprimand from the police.
