The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage

Gu Jingze said, “I don’t have anything important happening today, either.”

Lin Che hugged him. “If those relatives from your family heard that I went to attend a ceremony and even took away all the most capable guards by your side, they would definitely devour me.”

“They’re not going there just to protect you. They are also going there to protect a child of the Gu family. Even if our relatives know, there’s nothing much they can say either.” He looked down and caressed her belly.

Lin Che also lowered her head to take a look. She felt that what he had said seemed correct as well…

Gu Jingze said, “That’s enough. I’ll get them to follow you.”

Lin Che had no choice but to agree. Otherwise, she was afraid that Gu Jingze would nag at her for a day.

After that, Lin Che headed to the office first.

As she still had to draw up some proposals at the company before doing her make-up and then dressing up, it basically took her until the afternoon.

Lin Che saw that the event, which was an annual movie festival, involved all of the A-list celebrities in the entertainment industry. All of the stars who were more active this year would attend the event. Thus, from the early afternoon, live broadcasts of the event had already begun screening online and on television. They showed what was happening at the venue, what preparations the fans were making, and what preparations the media was making.

There was also a lot of speculation about the winners and about the people who would attend the award ceremony.

The people at the company were very busy. They found it a little strange when they saw so many people around Lin Che.

But Abby knew why. She walked over and said, “Wow. These guards look so menacing.”

Lin Che said, “Yes. You can even connect the scars on their bodies together.”

“No way…”

“I’ve seen them training before. Seriously, their bodies were covered completely in gunshot scars and knife scars. I think that even having them be my bodyguards is putting them to great inconvenience.”

“Hahahaha. You’re right. Today, they’ll probably just be fending people off… did Gu Jingze make this arrangement for you?”

“Yes.”

These were the cream of the crop of the Gu family. Truly…

Putting them to use here was too much of a waste.

Lin Che was presently resting here. She had a mask on her face to calm her skin down so that it would be easier for her to put on make-up. When she heard her phone ring, she held it up and saw that it was Black Hawk…

She picked up the phone and asked, “What?”

“Hn. I heard that you’re going to attend an award ceremony today. I just saw it on the news.”

“Yes. Why?”

“Do you need my help with anything?”

“No… it’s an award ceremony. What help are you talking about?”

“Things like breaking your competitors’ legs.”

“…” Lin Che hastily asked, “What kind of joke is that?”

“I’m just joking. I know that my younger sister will win based on her capability. Anyway, let me know if you need anything. Don’t push yourself if your body can’t take it.”

As Lin Che listened to his voice, her heart actually felt quite warm for a moment.

After all, it was a pleasant thing to have so many people worrying about her.

Lin Che said, “Alright, I understand. There won’t be any problems.”

Black Hawk said, “Hn. Do your best.”

Lin Che put down the phone. In reality, she already felt thrilled that he had such intentions.

Seen in this light, this older brother was completely fine apart from being a little scary. It did not seem so terrible to have an older brother now.

Of course, she did not know yet that she had spoken a little too soon.

In no time, the company started doing make-up on Lin Che. Her make-up was done, and her gown was also sent here very quickly.

The gown was made up of maroon fabric and red fabric joined together. Most of it was maroon with some red streaks here and there. It looked incredibly stylish. There was a narrow sash in the middle at the waist with a V-shaped collar above it. The elongating effect of the gown was evident, and the white and bright skin above her chest looked gorgeous. Paired with a diamond necklace, she already looked fit for the occasion.

There were a few crystals on her shoulder area and dotted all over the entire gown, making it look a little more like a flower.

Once Lin Che was done, she got into the van very quickly and headed for the venue.

They had kept time very strictly as they were also worried that Lin Che’s body would not be able to take it. They did not dare to cause her body any problems since the child in her womb was so important.

If there was an issue, there was no doubt that Gu Jingze would trample all over this place to investigate.

However, they had over-estimated the streets of B-City during the peak period.

The car got stuck mid-way through the journey.

Lin Che sat inside and even felt a slight urge to puke. She did not know if it was because she was too nervous today, but her morning sickness was much stronger today than on any other day.

Lin Che repeatedly moved and stopped in the car. She felt even more uneasy. Her complexion immediately turned poor as well.

Beside her, Abby was unbearably anxious. She looked outside and said, “Why are there so many cars? F***, why don’t you ask your husband to send a helicopter here?”

Lin Che hastily said, “Are you mad? It’s a live broadcast. If everything is broadcasted, I’m going to be famous.”

So many people were going to attend the event today. Something like a helicopter would gather too much attention.

Abby asked, “In that case, what should we do now?”

“We’ll get there sooner or later. I’ll get them to check which road is less jammed up. Then, I’ll contact some people to check on the situation at the award ceremony.”

“Okay.”

They split up and followed her instructions.

Meanwhile, at the award ceremony.

As very few people left so late as Lin Che did, many of them had already arrived at the venue in advance.

The red carpet was already laid out and the red carpet event was going to start immediately as well.

Yang Ling watched from the back. People were standing together with her and waiting to walk the red carpet too. The organizers had not informed them of the timing. Since they were to walk the red carpet together, they stood together and waited.

“Eh. There are so few people here.”

Someone else said, “All the A-list celebrities will come exactly on time.”

“That’s impossible. I just saw the complete jam outside. The roads are super packed today, especially around this area. It’s filled with fans.”

“It’s obvious that it’s your first time attending this event. Many people have been gathered nearby since early on. It’s just that they haven’t appeared. They will definitely drive here as if they’re in a rush only when it’s time. In reality, they’ve been staying in a nearby hotel and preparing since early on.”

Ha. I took a quick look around. All the actresses nominated for Best Female Lead tonight haven’t arrived. Among the nominated actresses, none of them are here.”

“All of them are waiting for Lin Che to arrive first. They want to enter only when Lin Che is here. After all, Lin Che is the hot topic tonight.”

Hearing this, Yang Ling scoffed. “I’ll see if she can even arrive at this place.”

In actual fact, Yang Ling had gotten wind of news that Lin Che was really stuck in a jam today as she had instructed people to tail Lin Che from early on.

She secretly sent a message to her assistant and specially said, “Play some more tricks on them. Get someone to ride an electric scooter and cause a car accident on that road.”

Her assistant was scared out of her wits but had no choice but to obey.

As for Yang Ling, she did not idle around at this time either. She immediately got people to create buzz online about how Lin Che was throwing her weight around by being late for the Golden Name Awards.

She scoffed and said to herself internally, “It would be best if you came just to attend and didn’t get an award. I’ll see how humiliating it is for you then.”

If she did not come at all and did not get an award, then they would have even more to say. They could say that she decided not to go at all since she did not get an award. It was indeed their first time seeing such an arrogant celebrity.

Meanwhile.

Lin Che was, in fact, still stuck in a jam. The jam had seemed to ease earlier and she had thought that they would be able to drive through very quickly. However, she suddenly heard that there had been a car accident at the junction ahead.
