Could they really overcome such a huge gap?

He said, “It’s not because of money . It’s because I know that the gap between us is way too big . I’ve seen how terrifying such differences can be . Those who’ve never seen it may be able to say that they’re nothing but I know that these differences exist and some simply cannot be overcome . ”
Xue Yang said, “The Wesley family is a regular in the Forbes rankings . They’re an international name . However, I’m just a poor lad who has just gotten an upstart . I know that Abby doesn’t care but outsiders will still spread many rumors after all . I know that all of these are obstacles .
Lin Che stood there and looked at him with her head tilted . “So now, you’re probably thinking about how these obstacles will turn out in the end . Xue Yang, what you need to think about is whether you want Abby or whether you want a peaceful life . It’s just like me and Gu Jingze . I thought about it before . Without him, my life may be more peaceful and there may not be so many rumors . He’s so brilliant and eye-catching . If I’m with him, I may always have to worry about others coveting him . I had a very good time while I was in America for those few years but I still came back because happiness without him isn’t true happiness . Even though my time with him has been very tumultuous, I still find it very fulfilling . At a time like this, don’t care about what others will think . There’s no such thing as perfection . It’s just like buying a house . When you pick a house, you will realize that there will always be one or two unsatisfactory qualities . If it’s not the configuration of the house, then it’s the floor; if it’s not the street where the house is located, then it’s the elevator . The only way you can find a completely perfect one is if you build it yourself . Otherwise, you have to think about what you want most and tolerate the rest . ”
Xue Yang looked at him .
Lin Che smiled and patted his shoulder . “Abby will still come back . Or, you can also go and look for her once you’ve thought it through . ”
Xue Yang continued standing there . On the other hand, Lin Che had already stuffed her hands into her pockets and left soon after .
It was good enough for her to mention the affairs of the heart . As for everything else, it was better for the people involved to think about it on their own .
Lin Che returned home, changed her outfit, and went to attend a banquet with Gu Jingze .
It was just an ordinary end-year banquet . Many prominent families in C Nation were here to attend .
Gu Jingze’s arrival naturally made this banquet the center of attention .
After all, it was his first year as the head of the family . As a result,, everyone treated him with even more respect than in the past upon his arrival .
After entering the venue, Gu Jingze was surrounded by people .
Gu Jingze dealt with them calmly .

Lin Che told him that she was going over there to put down her coat .
It was very cold in the winter . They wore coats while they were outside . Once they were inside, they handed their coats to the servers who put them in special cupboards before going in .
But there were many women here and they were a little short on servers . Over on that side, many people were lining up and awaiting their turn . At the same time, a few madams who knew each other were chatting as well . They did not seem like they were in a rush .
Lin Che was waiting in line . She was not very familiar with everyone . Just when someone wanted to talk to her but was hesitating and did not dare to come over, a voice from behind immediately made them shrink into themselves .
“Lin Che, why are you standing here?”
It was actually Black Hawk…
Lin Che turned her head . “Ah . I’m waiting to put my coat away . I don’t know if there are any more cupboards to store my coat . ”
Black Hawk frowned . He immediately pushed aside the people in front of him and walked in .
The moment they saw Black Hawk, everyone tactfully made way for them .
Black Hawk’s henchmen were even ruder .
“Move aside, move aside . All of you, move aside . Don’t dilly dally . ”
They were simply chasing everyone away…
Lin Che was dumbfounded but no one dared to say a single word when they saw Black Hawk chasing people away . They walked out directly and turned to look at Lin Che . Their gazes seemed to be filled with fear .

It took only a short while for the place to be completely empty .
Lin Che looked at Black Hawk in disbelief . His henchmen did not stand on ceremony either and hastily said, “Miss, please go in quickly . We’ll wait outside and stand guard . We definitely won’t let anyone in . ”
Lin Che said, “No way…”
Black Hawk asked, “Why? Weren’t you going to put your coat inside? Quick, put it away . ”
Lin Che was at a loss for words . She was so shocked by the expression of unreasonable self-righteousness on his face that she could not say a single word .
She literally did not know what to say in this situation .
But since everyone had been chased out anyway…
She should store her coat first .
The moment she entered, a server frantically ran up to her . “I’m sorry, Madam Gu . We made you wait too long earlier . Here, here…” The server glanced at Black Hawk behind her as if he was looking at a ghost . Then, he hastily stored her coat away properly .
Once Lin Che was done, she walked out to see the people standing out barricading this area as if they were the mafia looking for someone . Each and every one of them had malice written all over their faces . No wonder everyone was terrified .
She said, “That’s enough . This is too much . ”
Black Hawk responded, “If not, how long would you have to wait? They really don’t know how to discern between people . How dare they make you wait outside? They were dillydallying inside and chattering away instead of quickly putting their coats away . ”

Well, these women were indeed a little slow but he did not need to take things so far .
Lin Che rolled her eyes at her and walked outside .
However, the people outside were looking at her in a completely different light because of what had happened earlier .
Black Hawk caught up with her from behind .
Lin Che said, “Wow . Don’t follow me . Look at how frightened they are . ”
Black Hawk blew the dust off his fingertips . “That’s because they’re cowards . ”
“Hey . It’s clearly because you’re way too scary, okay?”
Black Hawk asked, “Really?”
Lin Che said, “You have so many people following you . Furthermore, you even look as if everyone owes you two hundred dollars each . ”
Black Hawk said, “Ha . I’m not the only one here with a bunch of people following me . ”
Lin Che turned to look at him . It was true when she thought about it . However, it was probably because he was Black Hawk and was innately very frightening .
After all, he was the world’s top assassin . His name was well known in the outside world .
Only Heaven knew how she suddenly got another brother like this…
Fortunately, Gu Jingze arrived at this moment . Seeing that Black Hawk was behind her, he wound his arm around Lin Che’s waist and looked at Black Hawk . “Why are you here?”
Black Hawk said, “You can come but you won’t let me come?”
“What happened just now?” He asked Lin Che .
But Black Hawk answered him first . “How exactly are you looking after my younger sister? Earlier, she was outside waiting to put her coat away . She waited for such a long time and no one bothered about her . If I didn’t go over, she would still be waiting outside right now, you know?”
Gu Jingze’s brow furrowed as he looked at Lin Che . “What happened?”
Lin Che said in disbelief, “It’s nothing, nothing . Earlier…”
The phrase “younger sister” was rolling off Black Hawk’s tongue way too easily .
However, Lin Che saw that the people beside them were already glancing over curiously when they saw the three of them standing together and talking .
Lin Che did not want anyone to know about their complicated relationship yet . Otherwise, if she went out in the future, people might be afraid of her too if they knew that she was actually biologically related to Black Hawk .
She hastily said, “Enough, enough . It’s fine . Come on, let’s go in . ”
She pulled Gu Jingze along and walked in quickly .
Gu Jingze turned to look at Black Hawk .
Immediately, Black Hawk rudely gave him the middle finger .
