Chapter 1138 I Can’t Believe You’re Praising Me
His voice was full of seductiveness, like a temptation from the bottom of the sea .
He circled her waist from behind, pressed his face to hers and said, “Congratulations . You were able to succeed this time because of your hard work . ”
“Thank you…”
It turned out that he had prepared a gift…
She had thought that he would not come tonight .
She had not expected him to have prepared a surprise for her a long time ago .
As she looked at the firefly heaven before her, Lin Che’s heart truly felt so full .
She felt her entire body heating up . She felt feverish as if she could not even speak at the moment .
Most girls would like things like this .
Although they would say that such surprises were too cringeworthy, they would still feel extremely glad to see them .
Lin Che walked into the world of fireflies in strides . When she reached out her hands, she could see the little stars and dots fly between her fingers .
She raised her head and looked at Gu Jingze .
“Hmph . You lied to me!”
Gu Jingze smiled while looking at her . “You’re the stupid one . ”
“How… how was I supposed to know that you weren’t angry?”
Gu Jingze held her hand . “I’m angry . ”
Lin Che quickly resumed a pandering smile . “The atmosphere is so nice . Don’t be angry anymore . ”
There was nothing Gu Jingze could do about her . He pinched her hands and asked, “Why are you so good at causing trouble?”
Lin Che said, “You really can’t blame me this time . The room I went to was the one you reserved for me . ”
Gu Jingze shook his head . “Your subordinates were probably lured away this time . ”
Lin Che said, “As for Qin Qing, I really just didn’t want to see anything happen to him in front of me . ”

Gu Jingze asked, “Why? What could I possibly do to him?”
Lin Che responded, “How… how would I know?”
Gu Jingze asked, “Why do I have to personally take action against him?”
Alright then .
He then said, “Furthermore, it’s better for me if he’s around . ”
“Why is it better?”
She wondered if he already had a plan to make use of him .
“By comparing him to me, you will only feel more strongly that not everyone is as outstanding as me . ”
She was wrong . It turned out that he purely wanted to boast about himself .
How could she have mistakenly thought that he had some plan for revenge?
After being with him, she seriously thought of schemes and conspiracies by force of habit . But she had forgotten that her man was a narcissist, to begin with…
Nevertheless, what he had said was, in fact, not wrong either…
Gu Jingze pulled her along and they walked in together .
Inside this forest, they could still see the bright color of the fireflies after a long time .
She really did not know how many fireflies exactly he had prepared .
She said, “How strange . Do people breed them? How did you get so many?”
“I got people to catch them . ”

In that case, how many people did he need to catch them?
She said, “You can’t have mobilized many people to catch them, right?”
“I didn’t need to . I instructed a few of my subordinates to catch them . ”
“Pft . You told them to catch fireflies…”
She looked at the people outside who were looking over here with disgruntled expressions . She seemed to understand now why their expressions were so stiff .
“They’ve been away for the past two days and many of them vanished without a trace . Were they away precisely to go and catch fireflies?”
“Hn . ”
“…” Lin Che cried out in alarm, “You made these elite bodyguards and personal guards go and capture fireflies…”
Gu Jingze’s expression was completely nonchalant . “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing…”
They had salaries of tens of millions of dollars and had acquired skills over so many years . All of them were rarely-seen experts on earth . But now, they had gone to catch fireflies for him to cajole a woman .
They must have been completely dumbfounded when they received this command .
Lin Che said, “Wow . This forest is huge too . ”
“Yes . I specially chose it . ”
“You’re so prepared… how did you think of this?”
“Baidu . ”
Mr . Gu was too honest .
Lin Che leaned into Gu Jingze’s embrace . For a moment, she felt that the world was so wonderful .
Meanwhile, behind them .

Some people had caught sight of the fireflies over here long ago and were momentarily in awe .
How could there be so many fireflies in B City?
It was not the right season . What’s more, there weren’t that many fireflies in B City .
“Wow . Are those real or fake?”
“Are those actual fireflies over there?”
“Good lord, they’re so cute . I didn’t know there were so many fireflies here . ”
“Forget it . Don’t be happy for no reason . This is a wealthy man’s present for his girlfriend . Didn’t you see the number of people cordoning off the area outside? I don’t know how much money he spent buying them . You can forget about it . ”
“Damn it . The lives of wealthy people are way too carefree . They can even give such romantic presents . ”
Lin Che and Gu Jingze sat there, leaning against each other .
She looked at Gu Jingze and said, “I always feel very unaccomplished . I don’t know how to do anything but act . I didn’t expect to actually succeed when I was just casually playing around this time and giving it a try . Don’t you think I’m really, very lucky?”
In the process of selecting the script back then, she did not think that this script would succeed . She merely found it interesting and wanted to bring it to life on the screen . It had gotten famous just like that . It was really…
Gu Jingze looked at her . “The harder you work, the luckier you’ll be . Furthermore, you can’t succeed without talent either . You selected a good script because you have a good eye . It has nothing to do with anything else . ”
“Is that so…”
“Of course . ” Gu Jingze continued, “You should know better than me the number of television series produced each year, and how many of them end up failing . The fact that yours was able to gain such fame must have something to do with the way you operate . ”
Lin Che raised her head and looked at Gu Jingze in surprise .
Good gracious . He was never someone to praise people .
Where had the sun risen from today?
Lin Che glared at him . Gu Jingze asked, “What are you looking at me for?”
“I can’t believe that you praised me . ” Lin Che placed both her hands on her chest .
Gu Jingze said, “Am I that harsh? To the point where I don’t even know how to praise people? I’ve always been honest about things . It’s good if it’s good and it’s bad if it’s bad . I think that you’ve done a very good job this time, so of course, I praised you . ”
Hearing this, Lin Che felt even more proud .
As expected, she did not feel anything when other people praised her . But with one compliment from him, she felt as if she was on cloud nine .
She was the one who had been poisoned by Gu Jingze .
But it was because Gu Jingze did not often praise people, so she really felt great at being praised this time .
She giggled and said, “Looks like I’m quite talented too . ”
He pinched her nose . “Of course . The Gu family does not feed idle people . ”
Lin Che leaned against his shoulder . The two of them kept looking in the direction of the fireflies . The long night was completely silent and tranquil .
Midway through the celebratory banquet, many people were so drunk that they were already swaying on their feet .
Nan Gongyu saw that Mu Feiran seemed to have drunk a bit of alcohol . He walked towards her and said, “Let me send you back . ”
Mu Feiran looked up . “Huh? No need . I called for a car . ”
“It’s fine . It’s on the way . ”
“You live in the north of the city . I live in the south . How is that on the way?”
