Chapter 294: All Men Are Indeed No Good

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

When Lin Che entered, Chen Yucheng saw her and was a little taken aback, “Mrs. Gu, why are you here?”

Lin Che said, “Didn’t you get the maids at home to inform me?”

“Oh, is it… It’s actually no big deal. It was just an accidental touch. This kind of thing happened occasionally in the past too, so I didn’t let anybody inform you. Perhaps the maids have been conditioned to inform you of all the times he falls ill. That’s why they disturbed you now.”

Seeing Chen Yucheng specifically explain the situation to her, Lin Che only waved her hand, “Nevermind. This is also my duty.”

Just then, Gu Jingze must have heard the voices and he walked out. There was a clear red patch on his face near his lips.

Was it an interaction that intimate?

Lin Che froze. She quickly smiled, walked over and said, “It seems like it’s fine. The maid still told me that you fell ill. I was so worried that I rushed here.”

Gu Jingze frowned and turned to his men behind, “Go find out who was the busybody who called Madam.”

The men behind froze. Seeing Gu Jingze’s darkened face, they knew that this person was going to disappear from Gu Jingze’s side.

Lin Che naturally didn’t know what he meant. She only smiled, walking towards him and saying, “Alright, it’s fine. They’re just worried about you too. But you look fine.”

Gu Jingze took a few steps forward and held Lin Che’s shoulder. He shot Chen Yucheng a look so that he would leave first. After that, he brought Lin Che out, “Come on, I’m fine. Why did you come all the way here from your film set?”

Lin Che smiled, “It’s okay. Have you eaten?”

“Not yet. Let’s go eat.”

“Okay.”

As he saw that Lin Che didn’t really react, Gu Jingze then relaxed. He looked deeply at Lin Che and walked out with her.

Shen Youran and Chen Yucheng watched them leave. Then, she said, “President Gu is rather pitiful actually. He can’t even go off the tracks if he wants to in the future. The minute he does, he will get ill; the minute he gets ill, he will be discovered. Sigh…”

Chen Yucheng looked at Shen Youran with exasperation. He frowned and asked, “What nonsense are you talking about? How will he go off the tracks?”

Shen Youran replied, “Wasn’t that going off the tracks just now? Don’t you see? He had been kissed.”

Chen Yucheng said, “It was just a kiss. That doesn’t mean he went off the tracks.”

“That girl is quite pretty and is from some decent family. Tell me, which decent girl would kiss a married man for no reason? Seriously, the aristocratic world is so messy.”

“I…” Chen Yucheng said. “It’s not like President Gu wanted it.”

“Ha, he doesn’t want it on the surface but he must be dying with happiness on the inside. The girl pursued the guy. If a woman strips naked in front of a man, which man wouldn’t be moved? Hmph. Anyway, all men are no good. I used to think that President Gu was alright. I didn’t expect even him to flirt around with women.”

As she spoke, Shen Youran glared hard at Chen Yucheng and walked ahead.

“…” Chen Yucheng shrugged and looked at her. “What has that got to do with me… Why are you venting your anger on me? Hey, come back here. You cannot let anyone outside know about President Gu’s illness. If you leak it out and get assassinated, don’t come blaming me.”

Shen Youran heard this and quickly turned back, “Huh… I’ll be assassinated… Is it that serious?”

Chen Yucheng looked at her speechlessly, thinking, this silly girl. Of course, she wouldn’t be assassinated. He was just scaring her and she took it seriously.

However, it was better if she thought that way. Otherwise, there would really be a problem if she leaked the information out.

“Yes. Do you think the Gu family are vegetarians in the C Nation? If you leak it out, your life might be in danger.”

“Ah… I’m innocent. Doctor Chen, you must stand up for me…”

“Be good and serve me well. You can start by massaging my legs and I’ll consider your request.”

Shen Youran looked speechlessly at him. She rolled her eyes and thought that he was seriously thick-skinned. He only knew how to exploit her all the time.

In February, the first exciting festival that would be celebrated for the year was none other than Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day publicity was all over the streets. It looked extremely overhyped.

Lin Che sat in the nanny car and very soon reached the film set. Yu Minmin asked, “Shall I help you take the day off for Valentine’s Day tomorrow?”

Lin Che looked at Yu Minmin, “What for?”

“Of course, it’s for you to spend time alone with your President Gu.”

“Nevermind. There’s nothing to celebrate. We are only married, okay? Not lovers.”

“Fine, don’t be so ungrateful that I offered. I’m so old already but I’ve never celebrated Valentine’s Day.”

Just then, Gu Jingze called.

“What are you up to?” he asked.

Lin Che said, “I’m at the film set.”

“Okay, go on with your work. I just wanted to tell you that I might need to go overseas tonight.”

“Ah, okay, I got it. Bon voyage.”

“Okay. I’ll come back soon.”

Lin Che put down the phone and Yu Minmin asked, “What happened?”

Lin Che said, “I don’t need to take leave anymore. He’s going overseas tomorrow so I’ll spend Valentine’s Day with everyone.”

“…”

Yu Minmin said, “You guys are really boring.”

Lin Che said, “I told you that we’re not free enough to celebrate some Valentine’s Day.”

Propping her head on her hand, she looked outside the window at the streets whizzing by.

Somehow, she still felt disappointed.

She knew that she was being sentimental and he was never the kind to celebrate Valentine’s Day. After being with him for so long, shouldn’t she have known by now?

However, she still had anticipated in her heart.

Gu Jingze booked a night flight for his trip overseas. He was only going to the nearby state, so the flight only took three hours and it was just midnight when he touched down.

Unexpectedly when he got down from the plane, he immediately saw Lu Chuxia.

“Jingze, I’ve been waiting for you the entire day,” she smiled and walked towards him.

Gu Jingze looked at her and walked over. He asked plainly, “Why are you here?”

“You’re here for the summit and so am I. Why? Does your mighty Gu family look down on my Lu family? I know that you’re here as a guest, so everybody welcomes you. I’m only here for fun, but you can’t just look down on us like that.”

“That’s not the case,” Gu Jingze glanced at her. Without saying anything else, he picked up his pace and walked in.

“Hey, Gu Jingze, wait for me,” Lu Chuxia quickly chased him.

Gu Jingze said, “I’ve already thought through that thing you talked about. I will tell you very seriously now. I still choose to be with Lin Che. So stay far away from me so that you don’t waste both of our time.”

“Ah, Gu Jingze, you’re really heartless. How can you be so cruel to a girl? Your words have no tinge of compassion at all,” she said.

Gu Jingze said, “You asked me to consider your offer seriously and I did. How should I still leave some compassion for you?”

“Fine. Then the first round of pursuit is a failure… I will begin Phase Two,” she laughed and looked at him.

Gu Jingze frowned and looked at this Lu Chuxia.

Shaking his head and keeping his eyes in front, he took a deep breath and walked forward.
