130 OUR WHOLE FAMILY HATES THAT MO PERSON


    "I never thought that you could talk with so much sense sometimes," Gu Jingze reached over and


    touched her head.


    "Of course, idiot. I told you that I am actually really intelligent and just appear stupid."


    "Ha, I see ''stupid'' often but ''intelligent''..." Gu Jingze chuckled and looked at her.


    "Get lost. I''m not caring about you anymore. Hmph. You''re starting to tear me down after using me."


    Thinking about how she was used, she wanted to die of embarrassment.


    It was the first time she did something like that for a man. It was the first time she touched a man''s


    most important body part. She felt depressed.


    What right did he have to ask her to pay for his happiness?


    In the end, she didn''t get anything in return. She served him for nothing.


    However, she thought about how Gu Jingze looked so rxed at the end and felt that she did the


    right thing at that time. His happiness made her feel that it was somewhat meaningful no matter


    what.


    Lin Che went to soak in the water again. Gu Jingze said, "You don''t know how to swim, so don''t go


    in yet. We can go back to the pool at the resort so that you can learn how to swim first and then


    come back here to swim."


    Lin Che was impatient, but Gu Jingze quickly pulled her back.


    At night, they rested in the vi.


    Lin Che was exhausted from the day, so she slept early. When she woke up the next morning, she


    discovered that Gu Jingze was already gone.


    Lin Che walked out and looked outside. Mu Wanqing was viewing the flowers, dressed in rxed


    clothing. She looked different from the usual elegant Mrs. Gu.


    "Good morning, Mother," Lin Che called out cheerfully to Mu Wanqing and quickly walked over.


    Mu Wanqing was also happy to see Lin Che, "Lin Che, you''re up early."


    "Yes, I slept a bit earlyst night," Lin Che smiled and said.


    Mu Wanqing took a stroll with Lin Che and spoke as they walked, "Jingze went to settle some work


    early in the morning. That child is always so busy; he doesn''t really have his own life. I was really


    happy that he took the initiative to organize the family gathering this time and let everybody have a


    good time out together. He always never liked family gatherings and neither did he like getting close


    to anybody. Looking at you and him together, he has really changed a lot."


    Lin Che looked at Mu Wanqing in a puzzled manner, "He initiated this family gathering?"


    "Of course. He called me and asked what we had nned this Mid-Autumn Festival. I told him I


    didn''t have any ns so he then suggested, why not go have fun at Phuket?"


    Lin Che thought strangely. When Gu Jingze told her about it, it was as if it was all arranged by the


    family and she had toe.


    Lin Che said, "So it was he who did it. Seriously..."


    This Gu Jingze was seriously bing harder and harder to understand.


    Mu Wanqing smiled and said, "Anyway, this is all thanks to you. If he was never with you, he


    wouldn''t have changed this much."


    Lin Che smiled bashfully.


    Yes, when he was with her, he had to put on an act. He had to pretend to be a filial son and a


    responsible husband daily. Of course, there was change.


    Mu Wanqing said, "I knew it long ago. Letting you two be together was the best thing."


    Lin Che looked at Mu Wanqing, "Actually... Gu Jingze''s rtionship with Miss Mo was not bad


    either, right?"


    When Mu Wanqing heard Miss Mo''s name, she quickly said to Lin Che, "Did Jingze tell you about


    Mo Huiling? That boy, why would he tell you that? We have never liked that Mo Huiling. She''s too


    pampered and she''s always so scheming. On the other hand, this silly fool Jingze is always too


    busy working. He has never interacted withdies so he never knew that women are the most


    complicated creatures on Earth. They are much moreplicated than whatever business


    conversations he has. It''s also our fault that we put such a big responsibility of the Gu family on


    Jingze himself. That''s why he missed out on all the joys in life. He doesn''t even know many


    women..."


    Lin Che said strangely, "Is it... Mother, I still thought a family like the Gu family would want to be


    associated with others of equal social status."


    Mu Wanqing smiled, "It''s eptable to be of equal status, but if that''s not possible, we won''t force


    it.


    Also, there are both good and bad points to that. Many girls want to marry into the Gu family but I


    can immediately tell that they are only after our power and money. Joining these families in


    marriage would be good for us but ultimately, he is my son. I can''t simply throw my own child into


    the fire pit."


    Mu Wanqing patted Lin Che''s shoulder, "When I saw you for the first time, I just knew you were


    different. You''re much stronger than that Mo Huiling. She is one person in front of Jingze but behind


    him, she''s another person. She thinks that I can''t tell. I''ve seen all kinds of women in my life and she


    thinks that I don''t know what she''s thinking of?" Mu Wanqing continued with hatred, "In the past,


    that Mo Huiling would act all prissy at home. She would put on airs toward the maids and nitpick on


    everything. If this kind of woman entered the Gu family, that would have been a disaster."


    The more she looked at Lin Che, the gentler she got, "But you''repletely different. You''re


    transparent, pure, and you know how to talk. Aside from myself, even the maids, the caretaker and


    everybody else especially like you."


    "Mother, you''re too kind. My head is going to float."


    Mu Wanqing said, "I''m telling you the truth. We all hate Mo Huiling, so you must get along well with


    Jingze and quickly produce a baby..."


    m ii


    Lin Che thought, So what if everybody hated Mo Huiling? As long as Gu Jingze liked her, nobody


    could do anything, right?


    Love was about two people. It had nothing to do with anyone else.


    The second day was the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Old Master of the Gu family also came.


    The Old Master saw that everyone was present and was very happy. He distributed red packets to


    everyone.


    Lin Che looked inside the red packet when she got back and almost jumped in glee. "Oh my, your


    Old Master is really something. He''s giving a house without saying a word. You should organize


    more of these gatherings in the future."


    "Look at your money-minded behavior. You now have C country''s most valuable husband; what''s so


    good about a house? With your eyesight... If I put you into business, you''ll definitely be cheated of


    your life."


    Lin Che raised her head and red at him, "I''ll dly!"


    Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze and recalled Mu Wanqing''s words. She said, "But Mother said that it


    was you who arranged this gathering. Gu Jingze, didn''t you say it was a family gathering? Why


    would you arrange the family gathering out of the blue?"


    Gu Jingze froze with the teacup in his hand.


    He turned around and stared at Lin Che. He then put down the cup and said, "For family harmony.


    This is what the top man of the Gu household should do. Why?"


    Lin Che thought there was nothing wrong with his exnation but still felt that something was not


    quite right.


    "But Mother said you never took up this kind of responsibility. She also said that you hate family


    gatherings," Lin Che said.

    Gu Jingze''s eyes moved as he looked at Lin Che, "You think everybody is like you and grows


    physically but not mentally? People be gradually more mature. I... I''ve matured too. I


    understand the importance of family now. Is there anything wrong with that?"


    Seeing Lin Che about to open her mouth, Gu Jingze embraced her neck and looked down at her,


    stopping her from talking. However, his hand unwittingly touched her face too. Looking at her face,


    he thought about her expression when she helped relieve him. His body suddenly started to miss


    that feeling...
