Lin Che gulped down the fruit juice and felt a lot better .
She looked up at the boss . “Your crayfish is too spicy . ”
The boss withdrew fearfully . He felt bitter but did not say it out loud .
You were clearly the one who wanted the spiciest, most lip-numbing crayfish . Why is this lady blaming me for making it too spicy?
He originally didn’t want to put so much seasoning . When he saw so many burly people around, he was afraid that it wouldn’t be spicy enough . Thus, he specially added some more…
The boss said, “I’ll get you a new plate . ”
“No need, no need,” Lin Che said . “Just give me some vinegar . ”
The boss quickly went to get it for her .
Who knew that this lady would be rather nice?
Lin Che took a deep breath and asked, “Aren’t you eating?”
“I’m not eating . ”
Lin Che said, “It’s really fragrant if you eat it once in a while . It’ll be a waste if you don’t eat . ”
“It’s okay . I’ll eat after you’re done,” Gu Jingze said .
“What would be left for you when I finish all the food?!”
Gu Jingze looked slyly at her lips . “I’ll just have a taste . Just a little trace will be enough . ”
Lin Che immediately noticed Gu Jingze’s gaze and pouted . “Get lost . I don’t want that!”
Gu Jingze responded, “What’s wrong? I said I’ll just have a taste of the ingredients in the bowl . ”
Gu Jingze’s eyes glimmered . “Why? Where did you think I was talking about?”
Gu Jingze said, “That’s true . We were disturbed today and I couldn’t do the things I should have done to you in the hotel… At least we still have time now . Let me…”
He lowered his head and plainly pecked her lips from across the table .
The faint imprint slowly deepened .
She tasted his full lips and felt his warmth and heat . Immediately, she felt as if her heart was filled with bliss . She couldn’t resist taking the initiative . Together with him, their tongues intertwined over the table . She tasted him slowly .
Gu Jingze was like a medicine that could soothe people’s hearts . Fooling around with him like this, the thorns in her heart seemed to slowly be plucked off .
Lin Che thought that perhaps it was her fault . She never thought that anyone would be so in love with Gu Jingze .
And throughout all this time, Yang Lingxin was all the more always circling around Gu Jingze, watching her live with him . She thought that it was all the more Yang Lingxin couldn’t stand it any longer .
That was why she became so crazy .
Even for Lin Che herself, when she first got together with Gu Jingze, she also kept thinking that she was able to block off Gu Jingze’s charm herself . In the end, she couldn’t at all .
It was all the harder to resist when she looked at Gu Jingze up close . His perfection barged into her heart a little by little .
After eating spicy crayfish, Lin Che’s mood was already a lot better . When she left with Gu Jingze, she then saw that there was not a single person besides them in the shop . The stall owner stood there very respectfully and politely .
Gu Jingze let his men pay the bill and did not take the change .
“The crayfish was not bad,” he said and looked at Lin Che beside him as if thinking of something .
Lin Che glanced at him and shyly turned her head away, pretending not to hear him .
Except for her lips, he didn’t eat anything just now .
The stall owner naturally didn’t understand . He only looked at that stack of notes and quickly thanked them in surprise .
“Thank you . Please come again…”
Watching Gu Jingze take Lin Che away, the stall owner was still counting the money .
Ten thousand yuan; not a single yuan more or less .
It looked like serving all these wealthy people today was not in vain .
Lin Che got in the car and said, “You gave the stall owner too much money . ”
Gu Jingze said, “I believe… this crayfish dish was worth that value . ”
“In what way?!”
He looked at her red lips . “It tasted very nice, although… it wasn’t quite filling . ”
“Get lost!”
Lin Che didn’t want to fool around with him anymore .
Gu Jingze laughed and signaled for the chauffeur to drive off .
However, he did feel that it was worth it .
To be able to let Lin Che walk out from the sadness just now, it was worth spending that money .
The next day, Lin Che told Yu Minmin what happened .
Yu Minmin didn’t say much .
“Perhaps she was still too young, so she couldn’t control herself . Perhaps even petty people had their own sense of pride . They don’t wish to be helped . Or perhaps… she’s not someone who was supposed to get along with us in the first place . Sigh… Life is just like that . If we click, we can get along . If we can’t, we become strangers . It’s no big deal . ”
“Yeah…” Lin Che also sighed and said .
Yu Minmin and Lin Che went to Lin Che’s home to help pick out her outfit .
Unknowingly, Lin Che already had so many clothes that she was so surprised when the maids piled them all up in front of her .
“Why do I have so many clothes?” Lin Che asked speechlessly .
The maid said, “The housekeeper will always buy some clothes in every season . Take a look first . If you don’t like any, you can let the housekeeper pick some more . ”
“No need, no need . There are too many clothes . Tell the housekeeper not to buy so much…”
“Madam, you are the thrifty one and have never worn these . Actually, we’ve never been able to finish spending the household allowance that Sir gives us . We still have a lot of money left . If you’re free, you can take it and go shopping . ”
Lin Che replied, “It’s okay, it’s okay . I don’t lack anything and you guys already buy everything for me . There’s no need for me to shop and I’m too busy to go shopping now . ”
Yu Minmin said, “Seriously . You’re so rich but you’re still so thrifty . ”
Lin Che said, “I didn’t earn this money . ”
“Whatever your husband earns is yours too . ”
“Fine . But of course, I want to save my money . Can’t my heart ache when I spend so much?”
“Okay okay…”
Yu Minmin picked up a piece of clothing for her to wear . “Let’s not pin our hopes on winning the award on our first time there . Thus, let’s prepare properly for the red carpet and not embarrass ourselves . ”
“Alright… But since when have I embarrassed you?”
“You haven’t… but you’ve also never been too outstanding . ”
“…” Lin Che said speechlessly, “That’s because I have a manager like you . At least I’ve appeared in the headlines numerous times, right?”
“Yes, but you can’t deny that there was plenty of trouble too . You can’t deny that from the break off to the contract termination, it was really… full of twists and turns . However, we always thankfully climbed out of the danger victoriously . Now, you’re also considered half of a front-liner . ”
“Idiot . ”
“If you can get the Gold Medal Award this time, you’ll really be a total front-liner . However, I still don’t dare to have too much hope on it . After all, the Gold Medal Award doesn’t just look at the level of fame, acting skills, and influential power . There are still a lot of other aspects that will affect the results . Let’s not have too much hope on it . ”
“I know . You don’t need to prepare me for the worst . Qualifying for it already made people’s jaws drop . How can I hope that I’ll get the award so easily this time?”
Lin Che and Yu Minmin settled on her outfit . After that, Yu Minmin headed straight back to Glazed Tile Palace . .
