302 A GOOD-LOOKING PERSON WILL FIND AN EQUALLY GOOD-LOOKING PERSON
Gu Jingze frowned at this petite woman, "Why are you being silly? Of course, I had to toughen up
while staying at a tough ce. But when I got back home, I had all the food and clothes I wanted. If
I continued pretending to live a hard life, what''s the point of working so hard to make money?"
"Hmm... For your wife to spend," Lin Che said shamelessly.

Lin Che stuck out her tongue, "What? A man earns money for his wife to spend. That is the
unquestionable truth!"
"Yes yes yes, that''s the unquestionable truth," Gu Jingze looked at her speechlessly.
"Then, don''t you know how to hand over your credit cards and sry?" Lin Che asked.
Gu Jingze looked at her, lowered his head, and said, "If I hand them to you, are you able to ount
for them?"

Lin Che thought about what everyone said. Gu Jingze''s assets were equal to an entire nation''s.
But she really didn''t know what that meant.
Lin Che retorted, "Hmph, petty guy. Don''t give it to me then. I don''t care! Ah, I''m going to the toilet."
Gu Jingze looked at this petite woman and helplessly shook his head.
She was really entric.
After a while, Lin Che returned. She stood at the foot of the bed and looked at the decor of the
room.
The furniture was simple. There were a desk, bed, simple books, tools and a dresser below.
She opened the dresser and she immediately caught the scent of mold.
There was a pile of clothes inside. She could tell that they were outdated as if they were from the
60s.
Lin Che then saw something else at the side. It was an album.
Lin Che froze and picked up the album.
"There are pictures of my Mom in here," she remarked.
Gu Jingze heard this, got up, and walked over to her.
Both of them sat down and went through the photos.
Lin Che saw a young girl with two braids. She stood in the middle and looked so fresh and pretty.
"This is my mother. She was much younger back then, but I can tell that it''s her. My mother was
really pretty when she was young..."
Gu Jingze looked at the photo and looked up at Lin Che, "You look like your mother."
Lin Che looked up andughed, "I do?"
Gu Jingze nodded.
No wonder she was so pretty. He could tell that she was almost a splitting image of her mother. Her
face was just slightly smaller than her mother''s.
Lin Che looked at the photo. There were a few other people in it but her father was not in the photo.
Her mother smiled so happily that Lin Che thought, Perhaps... she hadn''t met her father at that time.
Her mother was so blissful and happy before she met her father.
The people inside were all strangers to Lin Che. She didn''t recognize any of them. Lin Che flipped
through a few others and most of the pictures featured these strangers.
The sky was darker now. Gu Jingze hugged Lin Che but did not rush her to sleep.
After a long time, Lin Che yawned. Gu Jingze then said, "Come on, let''s sleep. We''ll continue
tomorrow."
Lin Che nodded and went to bed with him.
She had a good night''s dream. Lin Che felt that this ce was especially refreshing and easy. It
was as if she was far away from all her worries. When Lin Che woke up and walked out the door,
she saw that Granny was already up and tidying the yard.
"Granny," Lin Che walked over and said. "You''re up so early."
"Yes. We''re not like you young people who like to burn the midnight oil. We sleep early and wake up
early naturally. I''m also getting old and don''t need that much sleep. Thus, I can''t sleep for very
long."
Lin Che heard this and felt shy. She couldn''t help but think about how Granny didn''t sleep a lot...
Saying that they liked burning the midnight oil...
Did Granny hear anythingst night?
She froze for a moment but Granny didn''t say anything else and continued sweeping. Lin Che then
quickly said, "Granny, let me do it."
"No need, no need. Just leave it to me. I take it as exercise. Otherwise, these old bones of mine will
get rusty. Why don''t you take a walk around? Is Jingze not up yet?"
Lin Che could only put it down and said, "Yes, he''s still sleeping. He wakes up at 6 A.M. every day.
He''ll be up soon."
"Really? He''s that punctual? And why are you up so early?"
"I wanted toe out and watch the sunrise," she felt that the dawn air was great. The sound of
birds chirping outside was also especially pleasant. Thus, she broke out of habit and woke up to
watch the sunrise.

People in this town all woke up early. Some rode their bikes to get breakfast while others went to
work or school. When they saw Lin Che with Granny, they slowed down and smiled, "Ah, Granny
Qiu. You have a guest?"
Gazing at Lin Che, that twenty-something-year-old chap''s eyes instantly lit up, "Hey, your guest
looks familiar."
Granny chuckled, "What? This is my granddaughter. She''s not a guest."
"Oh my, really? She''s so pretty. I thought a celebrity was here. Hahaha."
Another neighbor came over, smiling and asking, "Old Granny Qiu, why was there a row of cars
here yesterday? Who was that?"
Granny smiled at Lin Che and said, "That was Little Che''s husband. He came here to find her."
"Oh my! Really? That grand?"
"Yes. Little Che married well and that makes me relieved."
Granny touched Lin Che''s hand as she spoke.
Lin Che also smiled back at Granny.
On top of the wall, another person climbed up, looked at Lin Che, smiled, and said, "Wow, Old
Granny Qiu. Everybody is saying that your granddaughter is here and looks like a fairy. They
weren''t bluffing." This town was small, so news traveled fast. It was not long before everybody
seemed to havee over to take a look.
Lin Che looked at all the visitors bashfully. How could she be some fairy?
An aunt leaned against the wall and looked at Lin Che. She seemed very amazed and spoke after
staring at Lin Che a long time, "You are so gorgeous. What''s your name?"
"I''m Lin Che."
"Oh my, that''s a nice name. Have you found a partner? I have a son who just graduated from
university and came back. He''s also handsome. I can introduce him to you."
Granny quickly said, "Enough, our Little Che is already married."
"Really?"
Just then, someone coughed dryly behind.
Lin Che turned around to see Gu Jingze standing there, looking at Lin Che and Granny.
He was still wearing the clothes from yesterday. The clothes were wrinkled now, but it didn''t look
unmorous on him at all. Instead, he looked quite fashionable.
Granny smiled at the aunt and said, "See? This is our Little Che''s husband."
That aunt stared at Gu Jingze until her eyes almost popped out.
There was really such a handsome man on Earth and not just on TV.
She looked enviously at Gu Jingze and Lin Che. Then, she said, "Tsk, tsk. Such good-looking
people getting together. Their future babies are going to be ridiculously gorgeous."
