Gu Jingyu entered and pulled up a chair . He looked at Lin Che and said, “Wow, you’re getting fatter . Have you been living a good life recently?”

The stares following Gu Jingyu in made Lin Che feel fearful . For a moment, she really wanted him to stay away from her so that she wouldn’t be constantly scrutinized by others .
Gu Jingyu said, “Just in time . Let’s go out for dinner tonight . ”
Lin Che said speechlessly, “Are you kidding me…”
“You promised so many times that you’ll treat me to a meal but you haven’t done it once . Why Lin Che? Is it that hard to treat someone?”
“Fine fine fine . We’ll eat together, we’ll eat together . I never said that we wouldn’t . Let’s just do it,” Lin Che could only helplessly agree .
Gu Jingyu then snapped his fingers and said to her, “I’ll come to look for you after we finish filming . Today is the first day, so remember to do your best . ”
“I know, Senior Jingyu . ”
“Since you know that I’m your senior, treat me with a little more respect . Don’t always look at me with such disgust, got it?” he said as he reached out to pinch her face .
Lin Che was completely lost for words . All these men of the Gu family were so tall and mighty, but why did they love to taint her face?
Gu Jingyu left as swiftly as fiery winds .
From behind, Little Tao was completely infatuated, “Wow, Gu Jingyu is too handsome . ”

“We were so close and yet I couldn’t see a single pore on his face . How does he maintain his face so well?”
“I guess it runs in the Gu family . Mr . President is also very handsome . ”
Yang Lingxin looked at Little Tao and the rest . She said, “See? I told you that you did your makeup for nothing . Gu Jingyu didn’t even glance at you guys . He only came in for Sister Che . ”
Little Tao immediately tugged at Lin Che’s hand and said, “Sister Che, you really make people envious, jealous, and hateful . I also want to eat with Senior Jingyu . ”
Little Xiao said, “Enough, Senior Jingyu will never eat with you . He’ll only eat with our Sister Che . Do you think that you’re Sister Che?”
Hearing them say such words made Lin Che have goosebumps, “Alright you guys . Stop talking nonsense . If the reporters hear you, another rumor is gonna spread again . I just want to be an actress, not a queen of discussion topics, okay?”
The newspapers recently were all naming her the queen of topics . Because she had the rumor with Gu Jingyu from the beginning until now, there was always some discussion about her and there was always a huge emphasis on it . This time, it was the same with Xin Xiaoyuan .
The day’s filming was extremely smooth . She knew Gu Jingyu well, so the two of them had great chemistry on screen . They immediately faced off and there were only a few retakes . The director was amazed as he said, “Everybody benefits from working with good actors . Good work, everyone!”
Gu Jingyu also looked at Lin Che, “You’ve improved a lot recently . ”
“Really? Thanks for your compliment, Senior Jingyu . ”
“Let’s not say anymore . Come on, we should go to eat now . ”

“Oh, okay . ”
The two of them ended the day and walked out pridefully . When she was with Gu Jingyu, he had no lack of crew members following behind him . Everywhere he went, he attracted the eyes of everyone around him .
Little Tao, Little Xiao, and a few others were squealing excitedly behind . They couldn’t contain their excitement .
“Look, everybody is watching us . ”
“That’s because Sister Che and Jingyu get along well and they’re close . Who wouldn’t envy that?”
Yang Lingxin watched from behind and secretly pursed her lips . Her eyes were fixated on Lin Che and Gu Jingyu’s enigmatic back for a long time .
In the office, Gu Jingze sat in his chair and looked plainly at the pile of documents in front of him .
Qin Hao knocked on the door and entered . He reported to Gu Jingze, “Sir, Miss Lu is here . ”
Gu Jingze looked up and paused slightly, “Lu Chuxia?”
“That’s right . ”
His expression sank for a moment . Gu Jingze nodded, “Let her in . ”

Lu Chuxia entered and smiled as she spoke, “Your Gu Industries is really strict . There were so many restricted access doors on the way here . ”
Gu Jingze looked at Lu Chuxia, “Do you need something?”
“I want to buy you a meal,” she smiled and looked at Gu Jingze’s outfit . He had a mighty aura as he sat behind the desk . She couldn’t help but chuckle and say, “Or perhaps the big CEO Gu can buy me a meal . You haven’t said when you were going to repay me for saving your life . ”
Gu Jingze smiled and placed his hands on the table, “Sure, I’ll buy you a meal . ”
The place that Gu Jingze chose to treat Lu Chuxia to was naturally grander .
When they were eating, Lu Chuxia talked nonstop while Gu Jingze only replied occasionally . Lu Chuxia said, “I didn’t think that you would actually break up with Mo Huiling . ”
Gu Jingze said, “Yeah, I actually didn’t expect it either . ”
“Then… Tell me, Gu Jingze . Do I have any chance now to replace Mo Huiling and continue down the road with you?” Lu Chuxia looked at him confidently .
Gu Jingze looked at her, “Do you really think it’s a good idea to be talking about this with a married man?”
Lu Chuxia said, “So what if you’re married? The society is different now . You can break it off if you don’t like it . Love rules . ”
Gu Jingze said, “What if I say there’s no chance?”
“Ah…” Lu Chuxia said . “You’re rejecting me so quickly . Aren’t you being too sloppy? I can give you some time . Why don’t you consider it?”
Gu Jingze picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth . He tossed it aside, “No need . Thanks for your good intentions, but my heart is already set . We are not suited for each other . ”
He got up and said to her, “I still have work to do . You can take your time . I’m leaving . ”
Lu Chuxia looked at him, unwilling to admit defeat . She bit her lip as she watched him leave, “I’ll ask you again next time, Jingze . We are very compatible . You… you should totally reconsider . ”
Lu Chuxia thought, His wife now was merely an actress . Besides acting, there was probably nothing else good about her .
A servant from the side walked over and said to Lu Chuxia, “Miss, it’s time to go back . ”
She grunted, “Do you know that person called Lin Che?” boxnovel . com
“Ah, Lin Che . I know,” the servant replied . “She’s an actress who became famous rather recently . Miss, do you want to take a look?”
“Very popular? Well, no matter how popular she is, she’s just an actress,” she huffed . “No need . I have no good impression of actors and the likes of them . And I have no interest in them . They all look the same anyway . I don’t need to see . ”
“But since you want to make some progress with Mr . Gu, isn’t it better to know your competition?”
“With her, there’s no need for that yet,” she spoke and stood up calmly .
The servant smiled and said, “You’re right . With a status like yours, Miss, how can you compare yourself to Lin Che? When the two of you stand side by side, it’s obvious to know which one to pick . ”
