Lin Che clenched her hands . She was typing on her phone until her fingers hurt . She thought to herself, I will not let you off, Gu Jingze . Just watch out when I return!
Thinking that Gu Jingze was preoccupied with searching for Gu Jingming, he must be worried sick and feeling more desperate than her . Because of Gu Jingming, she decided to let him off for once until everything was settled . Then, she would confront him about this, hmph .
Seeing how Lin Che's expression changed at once, the people around her shot her puzzled looks .
"Sister Lin Che… What happened to you?"
When Lin Che snapped out of it, she looked at these people in front of her all watching her in confusion . Some stared at her blankly while others seemed shocked .
Lin Che had forgotten that they were still around .
Quickly retracting the angry expression on her face, she laughed dryly and said, "Oh, nothing . Erm… I am going out to take a breather . "
"Ah, Sister Lin Che, I will go with you . " They followed her quickly, worried that she might be taking things too hard on herself .
If something happened to Lin Che, they would not be able to answer for it . Therefore, they could not let her wander off on her own .
Soon, they were out .

The hotel lobby was playing soothing music in the background, Lin Che took a deep breath . Despite dressing casually in a white chiffon outfit with a beige coat, she continued to gain attention while standing there with both hands in her pockets . Her beauty and elegance were so extraordinary that even when they came to a place with different beauty standards, she was still turning heads .
"Lin Che . " There came a voice from behind . It belonged to someone whom Lin Che prayed hard that she would not see at that moment .
She could not believe that Qin Wanwan was also staying at the same hotel .
She just came back to the hotel, dressed in high heels and culottes, looking very fashionable . Behind her was a big group of staff members . They had most probably just returned from a street photoshoot for some photos to be sent back home .
Qin Wanwan sized up Lin Che and said, "It has been a while . I didn't expect to meet you here . Looks like the production team has booked the same hotel for both of us . "
Lin Che glanced at Qin Wanwan . "Oh, I heard that you came for an audition . My apologies that you had to make a special trip here . "
"Don't mention it . It's only right that I come and help you . After all, we have known each other for such a long time . Now, that you can't continue the role, I should come quickly . Don't you think so? Thinking about it, you must be down on your luck . How could you offend Mr . Henry as soon as you came to Hollywood? I suggest you visit the temple to pay your respects and get rid of the bad luck when you return home . "
Lin Che wanted to tell her that it was all due to her own efforts but she simply looked at Qin Wanwan and gave a sweet smile . "Thank you for your advice . In fact, I was the one who let you down . I could not keep this role so later on when you got this role, others might say that you took it away from me or they might say that I didn't want this role anymore and gave it to you . You became my substitute . How could I let you be my substitute?"
Qin Wanwan's expression darkened upon hearing her words .
Lin Che snorted and walked off .

Her crew was also staring at Qin Wanwan .
Both sides seemed hostile towards each other and the situation seemed tense .
Then, Qin Wanwan called out, "Oh right, I heard Mr . Henry enjoys drinking red wine . Since you have met him already, he would have told you about this right?"
Lin Che turned around .
Qin Wanwan looked at her with an arrogant smile . "Don't mind me . I just prepared some red wine for Mr . Henry, but I am not sure if I chose the one he liked so I wanted to get your opinion . Miss Mary has invited me to Mr . Henry's place tomorrow and to show my respect for him, a gift is a must . After all, not everyone gets an opportunity to be invited to Mr . Henry's place . With such a rare opportunity, I definitely must not mess it up . "
Did she just admit that those were all her doings?
That's great .
Watching how Qin Wanwan was outrightly trying to provoke and mock her, she thought that it was ridiculous . Shaking her head, she said, "I wish you a smooth-sailing journey ahead while you are here . "
"Thanks, don't worry . It will be . "
Qin Wanwan watched Lin Che and her crew leave the hotel and snorted .
Sister Lin who came specially with her added, "Look at her dejected look, still trying to put up a pretense in front of others . "

"Forget it . You can't get through everything with pretense, so let her be . Anyway, she is going to reap her own consequences now . We should try to understand her . After all, this role was hers in the first place, now that it was passed on to another person, it's mine now . She would naturally feel jealous," she said, her eyes showing no sympathy but were mocking her .
Sister Lin laughed, "Yes, you are right,"
Mary would be especially taking her to Henry's place tomorrow, proving that Mary was really nice to her . If someone heard it, they would have been so envious .
Although Lin Che was feeling very angry, she continued to remain silent . There was no point in quarreling with Qin Wanwan now . She had indeed taken away the role, but Lin Che could not pick up a fight with her .

The next day .
Qin Wanwan had specially dressed up before visiting Henry .
It was a great honor to be able to visit someone's home in that culture .
She entered a beautiful manor . Sister Lin commented, "The manors here are very impressive . Those who live here are either Hollywood superstars or very wealthy people . It's not too far from Hollywood and there are great views here too . Look there! They are all villas . "
Qin Wanwan was feeling great . She entered the place and saw the wound on Mary's face . It could be seen clearly and was still in gauze . It seemed like that strike was really a harsh one .
This Lin Che…
Qin Wanwan thought to herself, It was Lin Che who got into trouble . Where did she get the guts to hit Mary with such great force? She thought that they would get into a fight and that was bad enough, but who knew that Lin Che did not even hold back her strength?
Mary told her, "Don't worry . Henry had already asked the staff from the actors guild to remind them . They are also aware of the consequences of going against Henry . You might not know Henry well, but he is definitely one with great weight in Hollywood . "
Qin Wanwan was very courteous towards Mary, hoping that she would be able to create more chances for herself to meet Henry .
Then, a Filippino servant came in and uttered some words to Mary that Qin Wanwan could not understand .
"That's great, … someone is here to see you," Mary said .
Qin Wanwan pointed at herself . "Me?"
"Yes, she heard that you came from C Country, so she wanted to drop by," Mary replied .
"Oh, who is that?"
"Someone whom you would not regret meeting . She is the young lady of the Wei Group," said Mary .
"The Wei Group?"
"Yes, once they are listed, their assets could go up to 50 billion . Their family has been in the industry for many years . They specialize in the oil refinery . "
