34 DIDN’T WE AGREE THAT YOU WOULDN’T GET ANGRY?


    Yu Minmin said, "Alright then. In any case, the situation has already turned out this way. The


    company will think of a way to help you deal with it, but you must be more careful too. Go out less


    for the time being."


    Lin Che sighed and said, "I was doing fine but something like this had to happen..."


    Yu Minmin smiled and said, "A scandal with Gu Jingyu... other people want it so badly but can''t get


    it. Right now, you''re already someone who can make the headlines. You''ve gotten famous before


    your works have. How great is that?"


    "Sister Yu, you say that because you haven''t seen how those people are cursing me." She pulled


    out thements on her page. After seeing her selfies, those people did not mince their words.


    They said that she was very ugly andpletely hideous. They said that with one look, they could


    tell that she had excessive stic surgery and that she was not good enough for their Gu Jingyu.


    She was so furious that she could literally die from anger.


    Sister Yu said, "This might be sensationalism created by the production team of your television


    series. After filming for the series starts, wave after wave of promotions will begin first in order to


    create momentum in the future. It might be something they intentionally created. It''s quite possible


    this is one of them."


    Lin Che was bbergasted as she said in exasperation, "In that case, they should have told me in


    advance."


    Sister Yu said, "Of course they wouldn''t tell you. And even if you go and ask them, they won''t admit


    it either. The rtionship between the production team and ourpany is inherently a mutually


    beneficial one. Why would they discuss any moral implications with you? What if they told you, but


    you refused to cooperate? Then, what would they do? Alright, we''ll leave it at that for now. Go back


    and have some rest first. It should be fine as long as you don''t walk around outside."


    After hearing this, Lin Che could only agree. She was mentally prepared to return home, go with the


    flow, and await thepany''s arrangements.


    After she returned home, Lin Che was so tired that she did not want to move further after falling into


    bed. Because she had not gone to work for so many days, she lost her edgepletely when she


    started getting busy like this.


    When Gu Jingze came home, he saw Lin Che sprawled out on the bed when he entered the room.


    "Lin Che, why did you run off to shoot the series? You haven''t fully recovered, no?"


    Upon returning home, Gu Jingze received Butler Hu''s report which included the Madam''s insistence


    on leaving to film. He had no choice but to send some people to follow her secretly just in case.


    However, they were merely servants and could not stop her.


    Afterwhich, Gu Jingze went directly to the room to look for her, only to see her lying on the bed and


    sprawled out on her back. One side of her underwear was exposed. It was pink with a floral border


    made fromce.


    Gu Jingze''s throat bobbed. He looked at her while frowning, "Hey, can you be a little more careful


    when you lie down?"


    Lin Che said indolently, "Why must I be more careful? If I have to care about my image even in my


    own home, life would be so tiring."


    Gu Jingze nced around the room. He picked up the nket from one side and ced it on her


    body directly, covering up her exposed skin.Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Lin Che wriggled her waist. "What are you doing? It''s so hot."


    Gu Jingze turned his head away. "Even if you want to seduce me, you should at least change into


    an underwear that can do the job."


    Lin Che nked out. She lowered her head to take a look. She was wearing a homely pair of casual


    shorts that were on the loose side. Underneath it was her underwear, which was presently exposed.


    With a slight blush on her face, she quickly pulled her pants up. She lifted her head and said,


    "What? It''s not like you haven''t seen it before anyway."


    Gu Jingze smiled. He came slightly closer and looked at Lin Che''s clean, small face. Her white skin


    was tinged with red. "So you mean that since I''ve seen it, I can see it whenever I want to in the


    future?"


    "Of course that''s, that''s, that''s not what I mean." Lin Che stuttered and hurriedly took a step back.


    Gu Jingze smiled even wider. Seeing her this way, he could not help but take another nce at her


    again. He only went out when he saw the butler standing at the door as if he had something to tell


    him.


    Outside, Qin Hao was currently waiting at the entrance of the study room.


    Gu Jingze walked over in a few steps. "Is something up?"


    Qin Hao wore a troubled expression. He walked over with hesitation, cautiously looking at Gu


    Jingze''s habitually calm face. "Sir, Madam has been involved in a scandal outside."


    Gu Jingze''s gaze wavered. He looked at Qin Hao. "What scandal?"


    As he said this, he had already taken the newspaper article to read.


    The article reported Gu Jingyu''s suspected romance that wrote about a deeply touching story about


    the love between him and Lin Che, a new actress in the same cast as him.


    Gu Jingze did not usually pay attention to any entertainment news, so it was only now that he was


    seeing this.


    However, the report was about Gu Jingyu and his wife...


    Qin Hao said, "Third Young Master and Madam are together filming a fantasy television series that


    the Gu family is investing in. That''s probably how they got to know each other."


    Gu Jingze lowered his head and said, "Put down the article. You can go."


    Qin Hao hurriedly retreated and left.


    After Lin Che had taken a rest, she nestled on the couch in the living room while watching


    television.


    She switched the channel and coincidentally saw the news on her and Gu Jingyu.


    ording to the news, Gu Jingyu was receiving tremendous attention this time for filming this


    fantasy television series. But to everyone''s surprise, there were no sparks between him and the


    lead actress Mu Feiran. Instead, there were rumors involving him and a new actress.


    However, the reporters had yet to receive an official response from Gu Jingyu''spany, so they


    were still unclear on the validity of the rumors for the time being.


    Lin Che rubbed her forehead. What did they mean?


    Was it degrading to be involved in a scandal with her?


    Angrily, she switched channels immediately. But then, she heard a low and somber voice from


    behind her.


    "Why did you change the channel after seeing me approach?"


    Gu Jingze was standing upright behind her. He looked at Lin Che and walked over in a few steps.


    Lin Che said frantically, "Ah... you saw this?"


    Gu Jingze''s face turned gloomy as he gazed at Lin Che meaningfully and sat down in a casual


    posture. He spread open the newspaper and swept his eyes across it. "Yes, do you have anything


    to say?"


    Lin Che rushed to exin. "I didn''t do this on purpose. I don''t know which reporter fabricated this


    nonsense. You know it''s impossible if you just think. In reality, I''ve only known Gu Jingyu for a short


    time. We''re both quite unfamiliar with one another."


    Gu Jingze looked at her. "It''s just a rumor?"


    His gaze was unfathomable but as Lin Che looked at him, she still nodded quickly. Secretly, she felt


    that Gu Jingze was definitely unhappy. Everything else aside, her being involved in a scandal with


    Gu Jingyu... it would be strange if he was d.


    "Sorry, Gu Jingze. I didn''t do it on purpose. I know that we''re already married. Even though it''s a


    contractual marriage, we agreed that we''ll be responsible towards one another. It''s difficult to make


    sure that your family won''t overthink it if they see this. I''m afraid you have to give them some


    exnation that this is just some sensationalism created by the production team. It has nothing to


    do with us... we don''t even know how word got out..."


    Gu Jingze''s expression seemed to deepen.


    His inscrutable eyes restrained any expression from showing and made them look even more


    smoldering.


    The moment she saw this, Lin Che rushed to say, "Alright, alright. I''ll go exin. I stirred up this


    trouble, so I''ll be responsible for exining to your family. I won''t cause you any inconvenience. I


    didn''t do it intentionally either. Next time, I will definitely be more careful. I''ll try my best not to cause


    you any trouble. Mypany is already handling this matter and I believe Gu Jingyu''s side doesn''t


    like scandals either, so they will definitely deal with this matter properly to the best of their abilities.


    You don''t have to worry. Soon, no one will bring up this matter again."


    "Hm, I''m not angry. Isn''t this just how the entertainment industry is?" Gu Jingze stood up leisurely


    from the chair.


    However, he looked at her meaningfully with a piercing gaze like an icicle that stabbed her cruelly.


    Thereafter, he walked up the stairs in quick steps without looking back once.


    Didn''t he say that he wasn''t angry... Lin Che sat there feeling like she had just been ruffled by the


    wind.
