The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage

Gu Jingyu entered and pulled up a chair. He looked at Lin Che and said, “Wow, you’re getting fatter. Have you been living a good life recently?”

The stares following Gu Jingyu in made Lin Che feel fearful. For a moment, she really wanted him to stay away from her so that she wouldn’t be constantly scrutinized by others.

Gu Jingyu said, “Just in time. Let’s go out for dinner tonight.”

Lin Che said speechlessly, “Are you kidding me…”

“You promised so many times that you’ll treat me to a meal but you haven’t done it once. Why Lin Che? Is it that hard to treat someone?”

“Fine fine fine. We’ll eat together, we’ll eat together. I never said that we wouldn’t. Let’s just do it,” Lin Che could only helplessly agree.

Gu Jingyu then snapped his fingers and said to her, “I’ll come to look for you after we finish filming. Today is the first day, so remember to do your best.”

“I know, Senior Jingyu.”

“Since you know that I’m your senior, treat me with a little more respect. Don’t always look at me with such disgust, got it?” he said as he reached out to pinch her face.

Lin Che was completely lost for words. All these men of the Gu family were so tall and mighty, but why did they love to taint her face?

Gu Jingyu left as swiftly as fiery winds.

From behind, Little Tao was completely infatuated, “Wow, Gu Jingyu is too handsome.”

“We were so close and yet I couldn’t see a single pore on his face. How does he maintain his face so well?”

“I guess it runs in the Gu family. Mr. President is also very handsome.”

Yang Lingxin looked at Little Tao and the rest. She said, “See? I told you that you did your makeup for nothing. Gu Jingyu didn’t even glance at you guys. He only came in for Sister Che.”

Little Tao immediately tugged at Lin Che’s hand and said, “Sister Che, you really make people envious, jealous, and hateful. I also want to eat with Senior Jingyu.”

Little Xiao said, “Enough, Senior Jingyu will never eat with you. He’ll only eat with our Sister Che. Do you think that you’re Sister Che?”

Hearing them say such words made Lin Che have goosebumps, “Alright you guys. Stop talking nonsense. If the reporters hear you, another rumor is gonna spread again. I just want to be an actress, not a queen of discussion topics, okay?”

The newspapers recently were all naming her the queen of topics. Because she had the rumor with Gu Jingyu from the beginning until now, there was always some discussion about her and there was always a huge emphasis on it. This time, it was the same with Xin Xiaoyuan.

The day’s filming was extremely smooth. She knew Gu Jingyu well, so the two of them had great chemistry on screen. They immediately faced off and there were only a few retakes. The director was amazed as he said, “Everybody benefits from working with good actors. Good work, everyone!”

Gu Jingyu also looked at Lin Che, “You’ve improved a lot recently.”

“Really? Thanks for your compliment, Senior Jingyu.”

“Let’s not say anymore. Come on, we should go to eat now.”

“Oh, okay.”

The two of them ended the day and walked out pridefully. When she was with Gu Jingyu, he had no lack of crew members following behind him. Everywhere he went, he attracted the eyes of everyone around him.

Little Tao, Little Xiao, and a few others were squealing excitedly behind. They couldn’t contain their excitement.

“Look, everybody is watching us.”

“That’s because Sister Che and Jingyu get along well and they’re close. Who wouldn’t envy that?”

Yang Lingxin watched from behind and secretly pursed her lips. Her eyes were fixated on Lin Che and Gu Jingyu’s enigmatic back for a long time.

In the office, Gu Jingze sat in his chair and looked plainly at the pile of documents in front of him.

Qin Hao knocked on the door and entered. He reported to Gu Jingze, “Sir, Miss Lu is here.”

Gu Jingze looked up and paused slightly, “Lu Chuxia?”

“That’s right.”

His expression sank for a moment. Gu Jingze nodded, “Let her in.”

Lu Chuxia entered and smiled as she spoke, “Your Gu Industries is really strict. There were so many restricted access doors on the way here.”

Gu Jingze looked at Lu Chuxia, “Do you need something?”

“I want to buy you a meal,” she smiled and looked at Gu Jingze’s outfit. He had a mighty aura as he sat behind the desk. She couldn’t help but chuckle and say, “Or perhaps the big CEO Gu can buy me a meal. You haven’t said when you were going to repay me for saving your life.”

Gu Jingze smiled and placed his hands on the table, “Sure, I’ll buy you a meal.”

The place that Gu Jingze chose to treat Lu Chuxia to was naturally grander.

When they were eating, Lu Chuxia talked nonstop while Gu Jingze only replied occasionally. Lu Chuxia said, “I didn’t think that you would actually break up with Mo Huiling.”

Gu Jingze said, “Yeah, I actually didn’t expect it either.”

“Then… Tell me, Gu Jingze. Do I have any chance now to replace Mo Huiling and continue down the road with you?” Lu Chuxia looked at him confidently.

Gu Jingze looked at her, “Do you really think it’s a good idea to be talking about this with a married man?”

Lu Chuxia said, “So what if you’re married? The society is different now. You can break it off if you don’t like it. Love rules.”

Gu Jingze said, “What if I say there’s no chance?”

“Ah…” Lu Chuxia said. “You’re rejecting me so quickly. Aren’t you being too sloppy? I can give you some time. Why don’t you consider it?”

Gu Jingze picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth. He tossed it aside, “No need. Thanks for your good intentions, but my heart is already set. We are not suited for each other.”

He got up and said to her, “I still have work to do. You can take your time. I’m leaving.”

Lu Chuxia looked at him, unwilling to admit defeat. She bit her lip as she watched him leave, “I’ll ask you again next time, Jingze. We are very compatible. You… you should totally reconsider.”

Lu Chuxia thought, His wife now was merely an actress. Besides acting, there was probably nothing else good about her.

A servant from the side walked over and said to Lu Chuxia, “Miss, it’s time to go back.”

She grunted, “Do you know that person called Lin Che?”

“Ah, Lin Che. I know,” the servant replied. “She’s an actress who became famous rather recently. Miss, do you want to take a look?”

“Very popular? Well, no matter how popular she is, she’s just an actress,” she huffed. “No need. I have no good impression of actors and the likes of them. And I have no interest in them. They all look the same anyway. I don’t need to see.”

“But since you want to make some progress with Mr. Gu, isn’t it better to know your competition?”

“With her, there’s no need for that yet,” she spoke and stood up calmly.

The servant smiled and said, “You’re right. With a status like yours, Miss, how can you compare yourself to Lin Che? When the two of you stand side by side, it’s obvious to know which one to pick.”
