Gu Jingze gestured for everyone to leave first .
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze . “Did you especially get Dongzi to come here?”
Gu Jingze said, “When I went to the military base to select people, I heard that he was very hardworking and had excellent results too . I took a look at his statistics and saw that he has improved remarkably . From knowing nothing at all, he has now acquired a full set of skills over the past few years . I thought that he was worthy, so I recommended him to come here . Of course, it was also because I thought that you would feel a bit more comfortable if there was someone you knew from before . ”
Lin Che smiled and looked at him . “Hn . Not bad . You’re quite thoughtful . ”
Gu Jingze tilted his head and looked at her . “Oh? In that case, do I get a reward?”
Lin Che stood on her tiptoes and pecked his cheek . “Consider this your reward!”
Gu Jingze shook his head and looked at her . “How petty . Are you only giving me a kiss?”
Lin Che said, “Don’t go overboard . A kiss is already good enough!”

Gu Jingze was speechless . This lass .
But he was only like this when it came to her . He would definitely not put in so much effort for anyone else .
As they were ultimately people whom he had personally chosen, he told them to get familiar with their surroundings first and to spend more time with Lin Che as well . They would also have to make future arrangements regarding work matters .
Bodyguards who worked for extremely wealthy people were well-provided for in their daily lives . There were people specially assigned to provide for their food and accommodation . In terms of material provision, there was absolutely no way outsiders could match up to this level . On the other hand, they no longer had any secrets from the moment they entered the Gu family . All of their secrets had been dug up and recorded in the Gu family’s database . They were also taught to be loyal . They understood that once their own lives were intertwined with one person, they would put their lives on the line for her . From the moment they entered the Gu family, they belonged to the Gu family . Their family members would become part of the Gu family’s database and their lives would be guaranteed . However, in the event they betrayed the Gu family, their entire family would be extinguished .
Back in her room, Lin Che specially called for Dongzi to come in . Not only had he been selected here this time, but he had also even become a little leader . Lin Che looked at Dongzi . “Where are you staying now? How has life been for you?”
Dongzi looked at Lin Che . “Miss, we live in a house that the Gu family bought for us . We chose the house and the Gu family paid for it . It’s in a very good location . I chose it after looking at many houses . Because the Gu family bought it for us, they gave us the best location . I brought my grandmother over and even hired someone to look after her . She’s living a very good life . We have Miss to thank for all of this because you’ve given us a good life . Otherwise, we may have stayed in that small village our whole lives . ”
Lin Che said, “Don’t say that . You attained all of this through your own hard work . By the way, what about your sister?”
“My sister changed her name . Linda changed it for her . She’s attending school elsewhere right now and is about to attend university soon . She’s living a very good life too . ”

“Really? I’m genuinely happy for you guys . But back then, it was only because of us that your family encountered trouble . I felt so guilty . I feel very comforted seeing that your lives have gotten better . I hope that you can treat this place as your home . Come here often in the future and don’t feel restricted,” Lin Che said with sincerity .
“Miss, don’t brood over what happened to my father . We know that it wasn’t your fault . Disasters and catastrophes cannot be avoided . My father’s death was not your fault . ”
Lin Che said, “Thank you for thinking that way . ”
The two of them spoke for a very long time .
When Lin Che went out, she did not take many people with her . Although nearly ten bodyguards came here, she brought only two people with her when she actually went out . That way, it would not look like she had many people with her and would not affect her work . She would also be able to deal with typical situations .
And on the other side .
On Yin Shangshu’s end, nothing much had been done . He did not say exactly how he was going to deal with the matter either . However, discussion about it was abuzz online . Someone said bluntly that Peng Yu had probably overshadowed Lin Che . When the drama was eventually broadcast, it was likely that Peng Yu would completely suppress Lin Che .
A few advertising personnel came to Yin Shangshu to discuss how to manage public relations .

Yin Shangshu was very troubled as well . On one hand, he did not want to offend Lin Che . On the other, he did not want to offend Peng Yu either .
He said, “Even though we would be in trouble if we offend either of them, think about Peng Yu’s personality . She’s rotten at heart . We would rather offend an upright person than offend a nasty person . If we offend Peng Yu, we may really be in for it . If we offend Lin Che, she may not do anything to us either despite her anger . At the most, she would not want to continue working with us but I don’t think she will leave just like that since we’ve already filmed so much of the series . ”
Everyone agreed as they thought that Yin Shangshu’s words made sense .
Yin Shangshu felt very helpless too . He sighed and said, “There is no helping it since Peng Yu is actually connected to Gu Jingze . Peng Yu alone is not frightening . I’m afraid that our television series will be done for after she engages in pillow talk with Gu Jingze . ”
Since they had made their decision, they ignored the comments online and made no response either . They allowed the situation to develop and did not care about whether the netizens were treating Peng Yu as the female lead .
When Lin Che arrived at the set, she immediately entered Yin Shangshu’s office after finding out about the matter .
“Director, I’ve already become the second female lead now, right?”
Yin Shangshu looked at Lin Che and frantically said, “No way . Don’t bother about other people’s speculations…”
“I demand that you release a new trailer . Otherwise, I won’t continue filming,” Lin Che said bluntly .
Yin Shangshu froze . “Don’t kick up such a fuss just because of a problem with the trailer . ”
Lin Che shook her head . “The problem doesn’t only relate to the trailer . This is an attitude problem . You’re simply being biased toward Peng Yu and indulging all her whims . This directly tells me that you may even continue being like this in the future . Right now, it’s just a trailer . If I don’t insist on having my way and I don’t fight for my benefits, you will only go further in the future and bully an honest person like me even more . That’s why I want you to prove your attitude to me now and show me that you’re not being controlled by Peng Yu . Otherwise, I will choose to leave . ”
“You… Lin Che, think about this clearly . What benefits will that give you? If you suddenly refuse to act, people will only speculate even more . It won’t be good for your image too . Furthermore, the compensation sum for a breach of contract is no small sum either . ”
Lin Che said, “I don’t care whether this will be bad for my image . I was forced into the role of the second female lead even though I was initially the first . That image isn’t that much better either . When I first signed the contract, I signed to be the first female lead . Now, I’ve turned into the second female lead . You breached the contract first . If we go to court, you may not be able to win so stop threatening me like this . I’m not Peng Yu; I don’t make empty threats . I always mean what I say . ”
Yin Shangshu’s gaze flashed unpleasantly .
Lin Che huffed . “If you’re in a difficult spot, I can leave right away . Call me when you’ve thought it through . If I don’t get a call by tomorrow, I’ll come back to pack up and leave . ”
“You…”
