Lin Che hurriedly said, "Alright, alright, Sister Yu, I'm really fine . Do you see? I'm good . "
"I know you should be fine . You left with Gu Jingze after all . It's just that I didn't hear from you after that and I got worried . "
"Luckily, I made it out early so I wasn't really harmed . I just don't know why the elevator was like that," Lin Che thought about it and still had a lingering fear . When she was at the company today, she didn't dare to take the elevator .
Yu Minmin said, "You don't know? That was no ordinary accident . Someone must have done something . "
"What?" Lin Che asked in surprise . "Someone did it?"
"That's right . I heard that someone damaged the elevator which resulted in that incident . "
Lin Che said, "But who would do that? And who were they targeting? Gu Jingze?"
"Well, we don't know about that . We only heard from someone in the event crew that they found out that someone did this on purpose . But it's not clear who they were targeting . "
Lin Che said in puzzlement, "Why didn't Gu Jingze tell me? He should have known . "
"Maybe he didn't want you to worry . That day was indeed scary and you almost had a mishap . Thankfully, Gu Jingze's men rescued you . His men were really fast . Everyone said that if it were up to other people, you and Gu Jingze might not have been able to make it out alive . "
Lin Che said, "Yeah, that day was indeed scary . "

"Luckily, you came out first . Later, Gu Jingze was hanging by the doors for a long time before he managed to climb out . He almost dropped down with it . I think it was only within seconds . So frightening . "
"Really? Was it that dangerous?"
Gu Jingze didn't tell her about all these either .
Was he worried that she would be afraid?
Thinking about it, her heart warmed .
"Also, Gu Jingze made everyone keep this to themselves . I guess he didn't want to make this a big news . After all, his identity is special . "
"Yeah," Lin Che said . "If anything happened to him, the Gu family would take him back for checkup and treatment . He probably didn't want to go through that trouble . "
"In that case, having a status like his can be quite troublesome . Every matter becomes huge . I guess the pressure must be immense . "
"Yeah…" Lin Che sat down and thought about how Gu Jingze normally thought things through comprehensively . It was definitely a habit of his .
His life was full of intense work . One small mistake might result in huge consequences . That must also be tiring .
Yu Minmin said, "The company was also scared and quickly gave you a new team . You now have three assistants and two bodyguards . You'll meet them soon . With so many people surrounding you, you'll look especially grand . "

"No way . That's so complicated . "
"Of course! You're now the company's cash cow . You'll soon have many endorsement offers . If you have just one small accident, they would lose so much . "
Lin Che said, "I used to think that it was already good enough to have an assistant to buy me food . "
"Don't talk about food now . Just think about how you will have people assisting you when you go out," Yu Minmin remarked .
"Wow, then there's so much pressure on me . What if I can't earn that much by then?"
"You''re already starting to earn money . You still have a long way to go . Don't worry too much . "
Yu Minmin smiled and said .
Soon, the TV drama was going to be aired . Lin Che was still feeling nervous . It was her first time as the female lead . Although it wasn't her first time participating in such a popular show, she was merely a supporting role in the previous time with Gu Jingze . This time, she was the main star .
On the day of the premiere, everybody was waiting in the company . They were prepared to watch it and receive feedback .
The first episode aired . Yu Minmin and Lin Che watched it together in the office . Watching herself act, Lin Che was able to gather her experience and figure out where she performed badly .

After all, it was her first time acting in a modern show . Her facial expressions were not natural enough .
Luckily, she seemed to get used to it towards the end and she became more immersed .
While watching, Lin Che constantly scrolled her phone to see the audience's reactions .
Because many people watched while scrolling through Weibo, there were already many comments on the topic .
She saw that most of the comments were pertinent . They remarked that the drama was really positive . Whether it was about clothes or props, it was obvious that a lot of money was spent . There were no cheap clothes .
Someone commented, "Lin Che is probably one of the newcomers with better acting skills . She acts fluently and is pretty . She probably didn't have too much cosmetic surgery . Her expressions are all so natural . "
What did they mean by 'too much cosmetic surgery'…
She never went under the knife once .
However, she treated that as a sign of acknowledgment . After all, it was so common to have cosmetic surgery these days . Many people used to say that her face was plastic . But they could still only look .
Where there was praise, there were naturally insults too . Some people said that Lin Che was disgusting and that she looked like the Virgin Mary . Some said that Lin Che could not compare to Qin Wanwan . Qin Wanwan's acting skills were the best among the newcomers . She was only popular now because she hung out with Gu Jingyu . He helped her so that she had better resources .
Everybody compared her to Qin Wanwan but it couldn't be helped . Their image was indeed similar and netizens simply loved to compare . Qin Wanwan recently became very popular and as soon as her drama ended, Lin Che's drama immediately aired . The discussions would definitely be unlimited .
The first round of broadcast ended on TV . Next, it was their partner website .
The click rate broke a million that day .
When the viewer ratings came back three hours later, it was also at the top .
Everybody in the company cheered .
Lin Che could finally relax . She heard her phone ring and saw that it was a call from Qin Wanwan .
Lin Che picked it up and heard Qin Wanwan congratulate her, "I saw the viewer ratings . Not bad; it went to the top immediately . You almost broke the record . Congrats!"
Lin Che listened to Qin Wanwan congratulate her so magnanimously and quickly replied, "Thanks!"
"Oh right, I saw people actually comparing us online . I hope you're not angry . The netizens have nothing better to do . Seriously, they must not know that we're friends . "
"Of course, I don't care about this . There are so many netizens that they will bound to have different opinions . "
"That's good . I felt so awkward reading them . "
"Me too," Lin Che said .
When Qin Wanwan hung up, Lin Che said to Yu Minmin, "Qin Wanwan is really a sweet talker . She called me just to apologize when it had nothing to do with her . "
Yu Minmin replied, "Yeah, whatever the netizens say is a separate matter . But this isn't the first day she is so well-mannered . Hasn't she always been like this?"
