    Lin Che smiled again. She probably was not familiar with such a distant rtive. She said, "Im sorry. I married into the family, so I dont know as many


    rtives as the Gu master."


    The girl revealed her white canine-like teeth. When she smiled, she looked friendly and it was a perfect smile revealing only eight perfect teeth.


    "Im Xue Menggi. You can call me Menggi.”


    "Mengqi Hello."


    She pointed inwards and said, "Cousin-inw, Aunty is in there. You can go ahead if youre looking for her."


    "Oh, okay. Thanks.”


    Lin Che replied politely, looked at her, and then walked in


    Behind her, everyone was still talking andughing happily. It was as if they were all very familiar with this Xue Mengai.


    Before Lin Che went in, she heard someone announce that Sir was here.


    Gu Jingze rushed here upon hearing the news. Nobody knew when he knew, but he immediately rushed here once he did.


    Lin Che stopped and quickly turned behind.


    Gu Jingze had already entered and immediately spotted Lin Che among the crowd. He made a beeline towards her.


    Everyone saw that Gu Jingze was here and stood respectfully. Throughout this time, Gu Jingze had already established his unwavering power as the


    head of the family here. Especially now that Gu Xiande was ill and could pass away any time, his status was all the more indisputable.


    Upon seeing Gu Jingze enter, Xue Mengqi also quickly stood up and looked in his direction. She said, “Cousin, youre here. Long time no see. I just


    got back and I know youre busy so I didnt visit you. I hope you dont mind.”N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    Gu Jingze turned and nced at Xue Mengqi


    However, he still quickly reached Lin Che and asked her, "Why didnt you tell me you wereing here?"


    Lin Che said, "I just wanted to take a look. Its not a big deal.”


    Gu Jingze sighed with a helpless look in his eyes as if he was looking at a dummy. He took Lin Ches hand and made sure that she was following him


    Then, he looked at Xue Menggi at the side.


    "Oh, Mengqi. Youre back.”


    Feeling ignored, Xue Mengqi looked slightly embarrassed, but she quickly resumed a poker face. She looked at Lin Che and Gu Jingze and said,


    "Yes. I thought you didnt recognize me anymore."


    "How could I? Were all family. Why would I not recognize you?”


    Xue Mengqi then smiled at Gu Jingze. She hadnt seen this cousin of hers and he seemed more handsome than ever now. The coldness in his eyes,


    the firm and mature aura and that amazingly handsome face never faded at all


    ording to logic, many men would be fat after marriage. After having children, they would look more lethargic.


    However, Gu Jingze looked just as dashing despite his age. It was as if all those years only made his face and body sexier. There didnt seem to be a


    single scar on him.


    Good-looking people were naturally well-liked as anyone would want to like them. Thus, Xue Mengai was very happy that her busy cousin still


    remembered her.


    "I thought youd forgotten me." She walked sultrily towards him.


    However, Gu Jingze avoided her as he tugged Lin Che along and said, "Alright, Ill leave you to talk. Lin Che isnt feeling well, so Im taking her to rest.”


    Xue Mengqi stopped and looked at Lin Che. She smiled and said gently, “Go ahead. We can always catch up another time."


    Xue Mengqi watched Lin Che and Gu Jingze leave together.


    Everyone remained silent as they watched Gu Jingze walk further away.


    Xue Mengqi looked at the couples backs. It was her first time seeing Lin Che in person and she could not deny that Lin Che was indeed good-looking.


    However, it still didnt feel good to see her standing beside Gu Jingze.


    Perhaps any woman standing beside a man like that would make others ufortable even if she was just a rtive and probably would never have


    any romantic rtionship with Gu Jingze


    They were distantly rted, but status, background and bloodline were still important torge wealthy families.


    Thus, it was impossible for her to date Gu Jingze. She also did not return for this reason.


    But even so, looking at Gu Jingze with another woman made her feel that it was a waste.


    Gu Jingze tugged Lin Che out of the area


    He carefully put her coat on for her. Seeing as she only wore a singleyer of clothes out, he nagged, "Have your people not been punished


    properly?"


    Lin Che replied, "Since they are my people, they have to listen to me. If they listen to you, are they still my people?"


    Gu Jingze paused and then reached out to pinch her cheek. "Youre getting more brazen. You even dare to talk back at me like this."


    Lin Cheughed and huddled into his arms. “I was trained by you."


    Lin Che really knew how to act coquettishly. And she did it so genuinely.


    Upon hearing this, all the anger remaining in Gu Jingze dissipated. Instead, he ridiculously felt a sense of pride and satisfaction.


    Gu Jingze said, "Yes. yes, I trained you!"


    Lin Che smited and looked at Gu


    Jingze. This man was so funto =~


    tease. She didnt feel this way inthe


    past. Now, she could say any gentle


    wore-or two and his anger would


    immediately disappear. Content

    She knew that it was because he doted on her and loved her. Thus, any gentle treatment from her would make him satisfied and happy.


    She looked up and asked, "How is Grandpa?"


    Gu Jingze wrapped his arms around her as his hand traced the small of her back. "He has not woken up since the surgery.”


    Lin Che frowned and asked, "What? What are we going to do?"


    Gu Jingze § Said, "The doctor said that


    his vitalsare normal, but we canJ


    only depend on Grandfathers S


    wil power to wake up. Hes getting on


    in years after all. Its differentfrom a


    normal patient.’

    “Doesnt that mean that were leaving it to fate now?"


    "Thats right." Gu Jingze let go of Lin


    Che and looked ahead. "This


    information ig still confidential for


    the time beiag. The operation was ~


    very sucge sful and were only i

    only worried that if anything


    happens now, you can only stay at


    home. Dont move around too


    much.”


    Lin Che naturally understood. He was thinking about her safety. If anything happened to the baby in her belly, she would be devastated too. She didnt


    want to take the chance.


    "Dont worry. If something really happens, Ill be obedient. You can do what you have to do. Dont worry about me.”


    "I know.” He turned around, ced his hands on her shoulders, and gently kissed her forehead


    Lin Che said, "I dont think lve ever seen that Xue Mengqi before.”
