Chapter 1110: 1110
As if she had been seen through, Secretary Lan’s embarrassment turned into fury . Her face was completely flushed and she felt extremely angry too .

She looked at Lin Che . “Madam, you’re interfering a bit too much . No matter who I dressed up for, you have no right to say anything about it either . ”
“Ha . I was just asking . If you want to dress up for someone, you have to consider whether or not the person will even look at you . ”
“You…” Secretary Lan had intentionally dressed herself up, but she did not expect Lin Che to notice .
Today, she had, in fact, met Gu Jingze only briefly, just because Gu Jingze had felt unwell the moment he arrived and went to see the doctor .
It was all because of Lin Che that her meticulous style of dress may turn out useless .
Of course, she was angry .
“We don’t know yet if he will look at me or now . Perhaps you can see for yourself when President Gu comes later . ”
Lin Che guffawed .
She was so straightforward . Did that mean it was true?
She knew that everyone felt that it was probably fine for a man like Gu Jingze to have one or two mistresses outside . That was why she behaved so impudently in front of her .
It did not matter to her what these people thought . In any case, it was enough as long as she knew what kind of person Gu Jingze was .
Just then, Gu Jingze came in coincidentally .
Lin Che stood there, facing Secretary Lan with a harsh expression .
As for Secretary Lan, who had always taken her job seriously, there was nothing exceptional about the expression on her face .
Gu Jingze walked in skeptically .
Secretary Lan looked at Gu Jingze . With her earlier words in mind, she smiled from ear to ear as she looked at Gu Jingze . The clothes she was wearing straightened out slightly .
But Gu Jingze did not even glance at her…
Her expression soured slightly as a result . She saw that Gu Jingze’s eyes were fixed only on Lin Che . “What happened?”

Lin Che scoffed . “Nothing . You can ask your secretary . ”

Secretary Lan’s face remained as stoic as ever, except that her expression looked slightly awkward and her smile seemed very awkward as well . “President Gu, it’s nothing . Madam was just wondering if there was anything going on between you and me… something beyond our professional relationship . I said that there wasn’t . Madam didn’t believe me and even asked me why I dressed up today . I…”
She immediately seemed a little aggrieved .
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che .
Oh, so she had gotten carried away with jealousy again .
Lin Che scoffed, “That definitely wasn’t what you said earlier . ”
Secretary Lan said, “I’m sorry . I did retort rudely and impetuously earlier . But that’s exactly how I am . I was a little anxious . I hope Madam won’t misunderstand . ”
Gu Jingze looked at Secretary Lan before glancing at Lin Che . He smiled, waved his hand, and said, “Got it . ”
He looked at Lin Che, lowered his head, and put his arm around her waist . “Alright . It’s nothing . Once I’m done, I’ll accompany you out today to have fun . ”
Lin Che looked at him . “Are you saying that you don’t believe me right now?”
Gu Jingze paused before looking at her . “How can I not believe you?”
Lin Che said, “This is uncharacteristic of you . ”
If Gu Jingze genuinely believed her, he would have resolved the matter swiftly and decisively by now, instead of changing the subject like this .
Gu Jingze said, “Yes . I think there’s a small misunderstanding on your part . ”
Lin Che looked at Secretary Lan . “She herself knows whether or not this is a misunderstanding . ”
Secretary Lan felt even more aggrieved . Her expression was between laughter and tears . “I dressed up a bit because President Gu said yesterday that I should consider my personal issues . I was also thinking about it . As opposed to wasting time outside, perhaps there would be a few targets in the company . That’s why I tried dressing up . ”
Ha . She said it so…

Gu Jingze said, “That’s enough . Secretary Lan, head back first . ”
Secretary Lan glanced at Lin Che .
It went without saying what this glance meant .
The way she was behaving like the victor made Lin Che feel frustrated .
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze only after Secretary Lan went out . “As expected, you don’t believe me . ”
Gu Jingze frowned . “It’s true that she’s a bit more direct by nature . She was probably disrespectful towards you . I will let her know . ”
In S City, people dealt with others in a different manner than in B City . The people here placed work and efficiency above all else . They did not quite know how to speak to and deal with people .
Because Gu Jingze understood, he felt that Secretary Lan might have offended her for this reason .
But Secretary Lan had always done a very good job in terms of work .
He felt that perhaps Lin Che had gotten jealous because she was too sensitive . It was fine to be jealous . Any woman would be jealous . He would cajole her and nothing would happen .
But Lin Che could not be bothered to belabor the point when she saw his hesitant expression .
She merely released her hold on Gu Jingze coolly and said, “That’s enough . Rest up first . I heard you went to the hospital . Have a good rest . I’ll go back and rest up too . I’m a bit tired . ”
“Lin Che…”
“Let me be alone for a while . Thanks,” Lin Che said .
Although Gu Jingze wanted to approach her, he did not follow her upon hearing that she wanted to be alone .
Lin Che walked out .
Outside, Secretary Lan looked at Lin Che .
“Madam, are you leaving?”

Lin Che said, “You acted quite well . ”
Secretary Lan snickered . “It looks like your relationship with President Gu isn’t as good as the rumors say . ”
Inside, Lin Che laughed grimly to herself .
Secretary Lan said, “Take care . I’ll help you look after President Gu well . ”
Was this a provocation?
Lin Che scoffed and walked out directly .
Naturally, a fire was brewing inside her heart because it was obvious to her . But Gu Jingze could not sense it .
She walked while cursing .
That damn Gu Jingze, Gu Jingze!
He was a block of wood .
He was way too trusting of women!
Did he not know that every woman was gifted in acting?!
Lin Che cursed him out all the way home . However, when she returned home and saw a call from Gu Jingze, she did not pick up either . She left her phone there while seething in anger .
She thought that perhaps she had no reason to be angry . It was other people’s prerogative to like Gu Jingze . What did it have to do with Gu Jingze? But she simply felt unhappy that Gu Jingze had actually chosen to believe Secretary Lan and not her .
This was despite the fact that Gu Jingze was probably a person who believed evidence . He felt that he could not make a decision without evidence .
It was also true that she did not have evidence .
It had not occurred to her earlier to record Secretary Lan’s words .
But she was still angry .
Impotent rage kept rippling in her heart . At this moment, Gu Jingze did not call again after the first time .
She tilted her body . When she saw Dongzi walking towards her, she asked, “Where is Gu Jingze?”
Dongzi said, “Oh, Miss . I just found out that President Gu seems to have gone to the venue with someone for an inspection . ”
“With someone… with who?”
“It seems that he brought Secretary Lan along with him . ”
Hehe…
Lin Che immediately stood up and said directly, “Since that’s the case, we won’t disturb his work anymore . Let’s go first . ”
Dongzi said in surprise, “Go, go where? Miss . ”
“For a stroll . ”
She headed straight out . The line of people, including Dongzi didn’t dare to say anything else . They could tell that she was unhappy and quickly trailed after her .
“Miss, tell us where you want to go . We’ll go with you . ”
“Let’s go for a drive . ”
“Yes . ”
Lin Che had not really gone around S City either . They drove around, but there was no place she could go to either . Thus, she instructed them to keep going straight ahead along the road .
Dongzi looked at Lin Che with slight worry . “We’ll reach C City soon if we keep going . ”
“Oh . I heard that there are many water towns over there . Let’s drive there and take a look,” Lin Che said .
