When Lin Che arrived home, Gu Jingze said, “The new year is coming . We’ll probably be very busy during this time . We’ll also have to attend events when the time comes . Remember to rest up well over the next few days . ”
Lin Che said, “Hn . I’ll just look through these scripts . I want to see if there are any scripts we can film . ”
Gu Jingze said, “I’ll help you take a look . ”
He took the scripts from her and perused them .
Lin Che snatched them back . “Forget it . You don’t understand such things . ”
“…” Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che . “Are you starting to look down on me?”
Lin Che asked, “What’s the matter? You must admit that you’re not omnipotent too . You don’t understand acting, so you won’t understand scripts either . ”
Gu Jingze glared at her and said, “Fine . You’re becoming more and more impressive, so you’re looking down on me more and more, right?”
“Mmhm . In the future, I’ll be a boss too . I’ll be the director of a company too . We’ll be at the same level . You won’t be of a higher class than I am either . ”
“…” Gu Jingze asked, “In that case, what can I do to solidify my position in your heart?”
“Hmph . Wait upon me every day . If you serve me tea and water whenever I need it, I can consider letting you keep your place . ”
“Hn . It seems like I have to practice a few more new positions so that you will find it more fresh and novel . ”
Gu Jingze hugged her and pulled her body closer towards him . Then, he sat facing her and looked at her face before asking, “Am I right?”
“Get lost!”
The two of them were smiling when a maid suddenly barged in . When she saw them sitting together so intimately, she immediately blushed and ran out .
Gu Jingze frowned . “The maids have been really unruly recently . ”
Lin Che said in an even tone, “Give them a chance to learn . ”
Gu Jingze said, “I still have to leave C Nation for M Nation in a few days . I have something to discuss with the President over there . ”
“Hn . Don’t worry . I can look after myself over here . ”
“Sure . Anyway, I’ve already told Lu Beichen to look after you while I’m not around . ”
“…” Lin Che looked at him in disbelief . “Why did you tell him that?”
“At the very least, he’s your brother . He’s better than an outsider . ”
Lin Che seriously…
Gu Jingze left the next day .
Lin Che stayed here with Niannian . She did not know what Niannian had been busy with for the past few days . He left early in the morning and came back late at night . He ignored her completely too; it seemed that he got ready for bed the moment he returned .
Lin Che thought about it . Before this, she had suspected Black Hawk’s identity and now, it had basically been confirmed that he was her brother . That meant that Yunyun was basically confirmed to have blood relations with Niannian .
She wondered when Yunyun’s identity would be revealed as well . When the time came, she hoped that Niannian could understand what was going on and not be too upset about it .
Meanwhile, outside, after Gu Jingze left, the maids needed to look after Lin Che only .
Lin Che read the scripts too late into the night and only woke up past ten o’clock .
By the time she came out, Niannian had already left a long time ago . She only started eating breakfast when the chef was done preparing food for her .
As she sat at the dining table, she still felt a little lonely when she saw that no one was around . It was really boring for her to eat alone .
Lin Che asked, “When did Gu Jingze leave?”
The maid replied, “Sir left at six o’clock in the morning . ”
“So early…”
She muttered and continued eating her dough fritters .
The maid cleared the table after breakfast and thereafter said to the others, “Madam wasn’t even embarrassed saying it was so early . Sir woke up so early and she didn’t even know . I don’t know what kind of wife she is either . ”
“It’s because Sir spoils her way too much, so she forgot how a wife should behave . ”
“I’ll see how she continues assuming great airs while Sir isn’t around these few days . ”
After the maids left, it was as if nothing had happened at all .
Lin Che got hungry in the middle of the night .
She came out to look for something to eat . When she saw a maid, she stopped her and asked, “Is there still anyone in the kitchen? I’m so hungry . I want to eat something . ”
“Ah, Madam . There’s no one in the kitchen already . ”
“Is that so… alright . ”
When Gu Jingze had been around before this, it seemed that there were always people in the kitchen .
Could it be that all of the kitchen staff had gotten off work early because they knew that Gu Jingze was no around?
The maid asked, “Madam, why don’t I call the chef back? The chef should still be around anyway but he may be resting already . I’ll just wake him up . ”
Lin Che said, “No need . That’s too troublesome . I’ll just cook myself some instant noodles . ”
She turned to look at the maid who said nothing and left .
She remembered that this maid was probably a new addition .
For some reason, she felt as if the maid’s words had another layer of meaning, but she did not say anything either and went off first to cook herself a bowl of noodles .
The next day, Lin Che had to go attend an event . She was looking for clothes at home but could not find anything suitable at all .
While sitting there and looking through her clothes, she called for the maids to bring her clothes . However, they always took a little too long to bring them to her .
Lin Che wanted to criticize these maids for behaving way too badly . But as she was too busy, she could only leave first while wearing a tight expression . She did not say anything .
Seeing this, the maids laughed up their sleeves amongst themselves .
“Look . Without Sir, Madam is just a weakling . ”
“Precisely . Doesn’t she know that as well? Who does she think she is? She’s only in this position because Sir dotes on her . I heard that Sir even had another girlfriend before her . She pushed that woman away and became his wife . ”
“Yes, yes . I’ve truly never seen such a lazy person . She needs Sir to wait upon her every day . Furthermore, Sir treats her way too well and abides by all her wishes . He dotes on her so much too . Our Sir is a prominent figure . And his looks…”
“Exactly . I see Sir being so intimate with her every day . I even wonder if she cast some spell on Sir . ”
The moment everyone recalled how Gu Jingze had been so intimate with her, they could not help but blush .
“Yes . Sir is such a prudent person but at home, he doesn’t care where he is and gets intimate with her as he wishes . Don’t you find it strange?”
They walked about like conjoined twins . All of the maids had seen the two of them being extremely intimate .
Lin Che returned at night . There was still nothing to eat at home as she had returned too late .
Thus, she made herself some instant noodles and did not ask the maids again .
However, she did not expect Gu Jingze to return at this moment .
The moment he entered, he caught a whiff of a familiar aroma .
As expected, he walked in to see Lin Che eating something .
“Hey, Gu Jingze . Why are home so late?” Lin Che quickly jumped off her chair, asking while looking at him .
Gu Jingze said, “I came back as soon as I was done settling matters . Why are you eating noodles alone? Did you want to eat instant noodles again? Although it tastes good, eating too much isn’t good for your health . Don’t eat it so often, you heard me?” He looked at her reproachfully .
Lin Che said, “It’s alright . I only ate a bit . ”
“There are chefs on the night shift . Ask them to make you something to eat . You can eat whatever you want . ”
“It’s so late . Why would I still trouble the chef?”
“Enough . Every profession has its responsibilities . Weren’t you the one who said that? They’re chefs . They’re supposed to be on the night shift . This is what they should do . ”
