327 SHE HAD NEVER THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BOTHER HIM SO MUCH
The next day.
Lin Che took the stairs down to the dining room and saw the table filled with tonics.
She sat down and thought to herself that they had actually made a pretty huge scene yesterday.
She wondered if everyone knew about her injury.
When she recalled what had happened, her face flushed slightly red. She looked down at the food
on the table. There was soup to enrich the blood, soup to replenish essential fluids, bone soup,
meat soup, mushroom soup... it was really...
From beside her, the maid said, "Madam, drink more. When you leaveter, you can bring some
along with you too."
Lin Che said in disbelief, "How can I possibly finish so much soup? All of you really put in too much
effort. Actually, I''m fine."
The maid smiled and said, "All of this was prepared because of Sir''s special instructions this
morning. He even told us to ask Madam to drink more for breakfast and take some to go as well. Sir
is really attentive towards Madam.
Gu Jingze?
When Lin Che heard that name, she lowered her head. She picked up a spoon and helped herself
to the soup. However, she considerably felt that there was not a lot of taste.
The maid continued looking at Lin Che and was temporarily at a slight loss for words.
She could only say from the side, "Madam, Sir''s attentiveness towards you is really indubitable.
Please don''t be too angry with Sir as well. Without Madam by his side, Sir is not even happy. He
just looks so pitiful."
Ha, he could be pitiful?
Lin Che said, "It''s alright. Without me as an obstruction, there are plenty of women who will cajole
him."
"Madam, please don''t say that. Sir really only has Madam. As for other people, Sir won''t even spare
them a nce."
"That''s enough. He''s your master. Of course, you''ll speak in his favor. This master of yours really
won''t spare other people a nce? Then, he didn''t look at Miss Lu Chuxia too?"
"..." The maids looked at each other at the side but were momentarily a little speechless.
After Lin Che ate her fill, the maids then hastily served her a wet towel to wipe her mouth and said,
"Madam, Sir is indebted to Miss Lu for saving his life. There''s nothing else between them. That''s the
only reason why Sir is lenient towards Miss Lu and gives her more special treatment. If not for that,
Sir would not look Miss Lu''s way at all."
"Precisely. Sir and Miss Lu have known each other for such a long time too. If there was something
between them, it would have started a long time ago."
Lin Che said, "That''s because your master already had Miss Mo."
Lin Che sighed and sat there saying, "Furthermore, if not for your master''s illness... why would your
master have married me? No matter what, he would probably have gotten together with a woman
like Lu Chuxia..."
The maids exchanged nces amongst themselves and were even more uncertain about what to
say in response.
Lin Che looked at the few of them. "Alright, let''s stop talking. What''s the point of telling you this? I''ll
go to work first."
The maids could only watch Lin Che leave and did not speak another word.
The film set.
When Lin Che arrived, Song Shuhai was unexpectedly very polite to her. She nodded at her and
smiled saying, "You''re here. By the way, what happened at home yesterday? Why did you take time
off?" Lin Che smiled. "I went to attend a wedding."
Song Shuhai nodded when she heard this. "Yesterday was an auspicious day on the Chinese
calendar. So many people got married. Look! The Gu family''s darling daughter also chose that day
to get married, so it was clear that it was definitely an auspicious day."
Upon hearing this, Lin Che could onlyugh dryly and say, "Yes, yes."
"Both you and Jingyu took time off yesterday, so I was actually extremely bored on the film set alone
yesterday."
"Am I not back here today? Whatever Sister Shuhai wants to do today, I''ll apany you."
"Great. Let''s have some barbecued skewerster."
"Yes, yes. Skewers are my absolute favorite."
After Lin Che finished greeting Song Shuhai, she continued to walk in.
Yu Minmin said, "Everyone says that Song Shuhai is a much better person than Xin Xiaoyuan. It''s
true indeed. No wonder she has always been highly looked upon in thepany."
Yang Lingxin said, "Right now, everyone has to be polite to our Sister Che. Sister Che even
managed to beat Xin Xiaoyuan. So, of course, everyone knows that Sister Che is much more
impressive than Xin Xiaoyuan."
Lin Che turned her head and said, "That''s enough. That incident was just an ident. No one else
knows what exactly happened. Xin Xiaoyuan crossed the line in taking a photo of Gu Jingze and
even publicizing it. The person she offended was Gu Jingze; that''s the reason she was forced out of
the industry."
"Is that so... but Gu Jingze only forced her out because of you, Sister Che."

"Of course not. It''s because he doesn''t allow others to disobey him. Especially to take such a
ndestine photo of him and even release it to the public."
"Okay..."
Yang Lingxin said, "In any case, now that the entire production crew knows that Sister Che has Gu
Jingyu covering her back and someone else protecting you, no one will dare to offend Sister Che."
Lin Che did not say more. Yu Minmin said to Yang Lingxin, "That''s enough. In this line of work, you
must always look carefully before taking each step. We shouldn''t tter ourselves. Once bitten,
twice shy. The next time, we must take precautions against such things if they happen again."
"Yes. It''s best to just keep my mind on my work. I definitely don''t want to be some queen of hot
topics."
Then, Gu Jingyu came again.
"Hey, Lin Che. Did you take time off yesterday too? I went to attend a wedding. How about you?"
Lin Che said, "Oh, I went to attend a wedding too." "Is that so? So many people got married
yesterday."
"Yes." Lin Che did not want to say anything more. She smiled and walked in.
Gu Jingyu said, "By the way, let''s have dinner together tonight."
"No, I promised to eat skewers with Sister Shuhai,"
Lin Che said.
"Why are you avoiding me? I just want to treat you to a meal as thanks for the present you gave
me." Gu Jingyu even wanted to stretch out his hand to shake his wrist, but he recalled that he had
felt something was a little off after Gu Jingze had stared at the watch yesterday. Therefore, he had
removed the watch and left it at home.
Lin Che said, "I only gave you the watch as thanks for your help. Why do you still have to treat me
to a meal as thanks?"
If they continued thanking each other, then this was going to never end.
Gu Jingyu said, "That''s the point of course. Aren''t rtionships just created from such cyclic
expressions of thanks? Aren''t friendships just built on such back and forth rtionships? Lin Yu,
what''s with you? Are you telling me that I can''t even be friends with you? Why? Did your husband
find out? Does he not want you to get too close to me?"
"..." Lin Che thought of Gu Jingze again.
At the same time, she also recalled his evil actions against her.
When she remembered it, she still felt a sudden pain in herher regions. The feeling of
difort made her roll her entire body up like a mat.
However, it was still the bitterness at the bottom of her heart that was more intense.
The thought that she seemed to have been reduced to a tool for him to vent his frustrations
yesterday made her feel even more sorry for herself.
He could even have an outsider he wanted to thank for saving his life; why was she not allowed to
have a friend because of him?
"No way. We''re friends. Of course, we''re friends. I''m certainly very happy to have you as my friend.
But I really promised Sister Shuhai to eat skewers together." Lin Che continued, "You don''t have to
thank me so much for the wrist-watch either. It''s really just a small token of my appreciation."
The watch was something that Lin Che had casually asked Yu Minmin to buy and she had not really
bothered about it. However, she had not expected Gu Jingyu to care about it so much either. It
made her feel strangely apologetic.
