Lin Che was just puzzled that these wealthy people seemed different in person from all those rumors about them .
Anyway, she believed what was in front of her eyes . She had no way to prove that those rumors were true, so she had to trust her gut feelings .
In any case, she did feel that although Li Mingyu would intentionally pick on people, he was rather nice to her .
Gu Jingze said, “It’s going to be the Mid-Autumn Festival soon and the family left Xue Mengqi to organize the banquet . We’ll attend it together . ”
“Hmm . Do I have to worry about her putting anything in my food?” Lin Che asked .
Gu Jingze’s gaze hardened and was cold as ice . “Only if she doesn’t want to be alive . ”
“Okay… You’re right . If anything bad happens, especially in a Gu family party that she organized, the one in trouble would be her . ”
Xue Mengqi took a short time to complete preparations for the banquet .
In that short duration, she was well-prepared .
The attendees were all amazed . “Mengqi is really capable . She had such a short time limit and she could do such a good job . ”
“Well, that’s because she’s talented . Nothing can stop her . ”
“She’s not like those wild chickens outside . She is a phoenix who shines, no matter what . ”
At the entrance, Xue Ningshan heard everyone praise Xue Mengqi and quickly thanked them, “It’s all thanks to everyone . Thanks to everyone’s help . ”
“No, no . To have such a daughter, we’re really envious too . ”
Xue Ningshan looked at Xue Mengqi, laughed, and said, “It’s a pity that our family can’t . If she stays with us, we’re only holding her back . ”
This meant that their family could not let Xue Mengqi be like Lin Che, who could use her well-known name to compete . Even if she didn’t have the abilities, she could still take part and join the competition .
But Xue Mengqi had to depend on her own abilities .
Some said sneakily, “Rumor has it that Lin Che is angry with Gu Jingze . Haha . I just knew it . This kind of pampering love could not last long . Sooner or later, one will get sick of it . ”
“Well, she will get old one day and turn ugly . Now that she’s pregnant, having a huge belly makes her look scary . Jingze is bound to get sick of looking at her daily . A man needs to live his life . While other girls are young and slender, the one beside him is big-bellied and bearing a second child . Won’t he have a change of heart?”
This rumor that Gu Jingze and Lin Che were not on good terms recently, already spread through every corner of the entire Gu family .
Even Mu Wanqing caught wind of this and began to have her doubts .
Did they really fight?
They did have little tiffs through the years, but they were never really angry for this long .
But winds don’t come from nowhere . If there really was nothing, how could the rumor spread this wide?
Gu Jingze was the head of the family and there were so many important things recently . Thus, any slight movement at Gu Jingze’s side would immediately alert the eyes of many .
At this moment, Xue Mengqi also started getting ready .
“Get ready for the show today . ”
“Understood . ”
Just then, Gu Jingze’s car stopped at the entrance .
Everyone immediately turned their focus to over there .
The car door opened . The bodyguard walked over and held the door open .
Gu Jingze stepped out of the car .
He wore a long-sleeved trench coat and looked very ethereal . His expression was completely casual and made everyone amazed . He looked different from his usual day at work . The Gu Jingze today looked full of life .
It was just a family gathering and this get-up was not a big deal .
However, everyone saw that Gu Jingze did not walk straight to the banquet . Instead, he walked around to the other side of the car .
He personally held the door open on that side and the person in the car attracted everyone’s attention even more .
Lin Che…
Originally, he should have been the most reasonable person . But now, he surprised everyone .
Gu Jingze carefully helped Lin Che out of the car .
The blue and yellow colors of Lin Che’s coat matched elegantly, but upon closer look… She actually wore the same colors as Gu Jingze .
She looked up at Gu Jingze, smiled, and stood next to him .
Gu Jingze held her, looked forward, and walked steadily .
The couple walked breezily . To some people’s surprising discovery, the couple actually wore couple outfits .
Their child was so big already and they still wore couple outfits .
Since when was Gu Jingze so mushy?
Everyone’s impression of Gu Jingze was nothing like this at all .
Xue Ningshan was stunned .
Xue Mengqi walked over from behind and saw Xue Ningshan .
“What is going on?!” Xue Mengqi could not hide her anger .
Xue Ningshan said, “Stay calm . We don’t know if they are pretending or not . ”
Xue Mengqi thought about it and agreed .
They probably would not fight in public .
However, looking at the couple hold hands as they walked really made her eyes hurt .
Gu Jingze and her walked all the way to the door . He lowered his head and carried her . Then, he stepped over the tall threshold of the door with her in his arms .
Lin Che’s feet touched the ground and she smacked his chest shyly . Her face flushed as she made him step away .
Gu Jingze naturally continued to hold her hand again . As if nobody else was around, he simply continued leading the way .
If this was fighting, then there would be no such thing as lovers in this world .
Mu Wanqing also joined the crowd . Initially, her face was filled with worry . When she saw the couple, she was puzzled again .
Lin Che was still her same boisterous self while Gu Jingze did not seem to be angry at all . He plainly held Lin Che as his gaze fell on her . It was as if he would be the first to catch every single expression on her face .
Mu Wanqing smiled at Lin Che . “Little Che, quickly come in . You’re so heavily pregnant that it’s not good for you to walk such a long distance . They are too inconsiderate to hold the banquet at such a faraway place, making you walk so much . ”
Gu Jingze said, “It’s alright . I can carry her . ”
Before Lin Che could move, Gu Jingze’s arm already went around her .
He scooped Lin Che up easily .
Lin Che’s belly faced upwards while her arm was hooked around his neck . It seemed effortless for Gu Jingze as he carried her and continued walking . His steps were even and it was as if the person in his arms was weightless . He looked so stable and looked as if he was holding a precious treasure in his arms .
This surprised people more .
She was merely pregnant . Did he have to care so much?
She couldn’t walk any more steps and had to be carried in .
This child was too precious .
Not to mention, Gu Jingze was the head of the family .
But when Lin Che was around, he didn’t seem to care about his status .
However, Gu Jingze was just like that . He didn’t seem to care about himself nor anyone else around . He ignored those surprised stares . There seemed to be only two kinds of people in this world . One kind was the people he cared about . The other was the people he did not care about . He would look at those he cared about while the others were non-existent to him .
