Gu Jingze turned back to look at Lin Che and said, “Alright . We’ll be there at night . ”
Lin Che and Gu Jingze went to Lu Qinyu’s villa at night .
Lu Qinyu looked at Lin Che and congratulated her, “Congratulations, Little Che! I heard that you performed wonderfully . It’s a pity that I didn’t go to watch . However, it’s natural that you managed to gain everyone’s acknowledgment . ”
Lin Che smile and thanked him .
She saw that Gu Jingyan was also there .
Looking at Lin Che, she smiled and said, “I only managed to come here after I finished my work the past couple of days . In the end, the competition is already over . ”
Lu Qinyu said, “Next time, just let Beichen handle all these things . The company is run by both of you . You don’t have to be so stubborn . Leave some things to Beichen . Isn’t it good to spend more time outside?”
Gu Jingyan smiled . “I think so too, but we divided our work . I do my part a bit slower and I have no way of leaving halfway . Furthermore, I’ve already heard that Lin Che and Chuxia dominated these few days . Other socialites were all interested in participating too, so I decided not to join in . ”
She continued, “I cannot win my sister-in-law anyway, right?”
Lin Che blushed and asked, “How can that be? These are just clever tricks . People like you who run a company are the smart ones . It’s a pity that I don’t know how . ”
Lin Che stuck out her tongue .
Gu Jingyan said, “With Second Brother around, there’s no need to think so much . Right, Second Brother? You will always have sister-in-law’s back and protect her . ”
Lu Qinyu let the attendants prepare and let the group of young people sit down for a chat .

Lu Beichen said, “I saw Chuxia leave crying in the morning . I think she must be gravely affected this time . ”
Lin Che said sheepishly, “I’m sorry . We were being so childish at that point . That was why we had such a bet . ”
Lu Beichen replied, “It’s alright . She is too used to being so arrogant . It’s good to teach her a little lesson so that she will know that however strong she is, there’ll be someone stronger than her out there . ”
Gu Jingyan said, “Also, Sister-in-law, you are indeed capable . This competition was very fair and you didn’t win because of whom you were with . You made all these high and mighty wealthy playboys take a liking to you and admire you . Clearly, you deserve to do it . ”
Gu Jingyan looked at Lu Beichen . “Your Chuxia is usually too much . Everything else is fine, but the way she treats my sister-in-law is really overboard . It’s no use saying it . I’m not going to talk to her again this time . She should be able to learn from this lesson herself . ”
Lu Beichen said, “I didn’t ask you to talk to her . ”
“Yes, but since I’m married into your family, I should carry out my duties, unlike someone who doesn’t know his responsibilities after marriage . ”
Lu Beichen looked at her . “Tell me directly if you want to . What’s the point of beating about the bush? There are no outsiders here, so what are you afraid of?”
“This is called beating about the bush? I believe I’ve been direct enough . ”
Lin Che quickly looked at Gu Jingze . She didn’t know what to do .
How did they start to quarrel?
Gu Jingze received the cue from Lin Che . He raised his brow and got up, pulling Lin Che together with him . He said, “Alright, we’re going out for a walk . It’s too stuffy in this room . ”
Lin Che nodded . She looked back at the couple and then hastily left .

Only the two of them were left in the room . Lu Beichen stood up . “That’s just great . You let your brother witness our perfect marriage this time . ”
“Did you think that a clever person like him wouldn’t already have known?”
Lu Beichen stood up and walked towards the door .
Gu Jingyan also stood up . It was bad timing as she bumped into a maid who was bringing some things to them .
The tea spilled all over Gu Jingyan and she shouted in pain .
The teapot also fell and shattered on the ground .
The maid’s face turned pale and she quickly said, “Young Madam, Young Madam, I’m so sorry! I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to!”
Lu Beichen who had just opened the door and was about to walk out heard the commotion .
Gu Jingyan seemed fine . Although she was frustrated, she still said, “I’m fine, I’m fine . ”
In the next moment, Lu Beichen pushed the maid to the side . “How do you do your job?”
He pushed the maid aside as he took Gu Jingyan’s arm .
Her fair arm was scalded red .
The maid shivered in fear behind .

Lu Beichen turned to her and said, “What are you still looking at? Quickly get some medication . Don’t you know how to do your job?”
“Y-Y-Yes…” The maid quickly went to fetch the medication .
Seeing that the maid looked so frightened, Gu Jingyan said to Lu Beichen, “That’s enough . You’re so scary . She didn’t do it on purpose either . ”
“Shut up . Will just saying that it was not on purpose suffice? What is she doing? It’s such a small matter and she couldn’t do it properly . ”
“Everyone makes mistakes . ”
“I don’t need you to interfere when I’m managing my subordinates,” Lu Beichen said impatiently as he looked up .
Gu Jingyan retorted, “This is called interfering? I’m giving you a suggestion . It’s a suggestion, get it?”
“That’s enough . If someone else brings it up to me, it can still be a suggestion . If it comes from you, which one of your suggestions was not out to oppose me through all these years?”
“That’s what you think . What can I do about your paranoia?”
“I’m not going to argue over whether I’m being paranoid or you just like harming me . It’s pointless anyway . You vicious snake of a woman . To you, everything that you do is right . It’s as if you don’t care about what anyone else thinks . ”
“Ha! Yes, yes, I’m vicious . Why are you bothering me then? Let go of me . This is my hand . However, I scald it has nothing to do with you . ”
Gu Jingyan pushed Lu Beichen away .
Being pushed to the side, Lu Beichen looked at her icy face and fumed .
“Fine, fine, I’m being too nosey . I won’t care if you scald yourself to death . Do you really think that I care about you?” He said angrily, “I was angry because my subordinate couldn’t do a proper job . Care about you? You were only lightly scalded . Who’s going to care about you?”
Gu Jingyan looked stubbornly at him . “What a pity . Villains live for centuries and I simply can’t die . It’s nothing much this time, anyway . It’s just red for a while . ”
At this moment, the maid hurried back and even specially called their family doctor over .
But the two of them were standing on separate sides with dirty looks on their faces .
The maid was at a lost and didn’t know what to do .
Lu Beichen stared back at Gu Jingyan and told the people who came in to not bother about her . She said that she didn’t need treatment, so get lost . ”
The doctor said, “Young Master Chen… Scalds should still be examined . ”
“What’s there to examine? She asked for it . ”
Gu Jingyan said, “That’s enough . If you want to oppose me, just come straight at me . Why must you always scold others around you?”
Lu Beichen glared angrily at Gu Jingyan, opened the door, and then walked out .
The maid stood there uneasily .
