Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You…” Lu Chuxia’s face was ashened as she looked at him, still wanting to threaten him. “Gu Jingze, I don’t allow her into my house now. Otherwise, I guarantee that something will happen.”
Lu Chuxia just told people that Gu Jingze was here. She was so satisfied to see everyone’s envious gazes. She didn’t expect him to actually bring another woman with him.
If they saw this, they would be uncertain and think that she was just bragging.
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze worriedly.
Gu Jingze was poised as he looked ahead. No emotions could be seen from his seemingly glowing eyes. He looked at Lu Chuxia with repressed silence and then said lightly, “Whatever you want to do.”
Gu Jingze took Lin Che and headed inwards.
Lu Chuxia was outraged by his nonchalance and pulled Lin Che, “This is my house. She’s not going in unless I allow her to.”
Lu Chuxia said agitatedly.
From behind, some people already noticed that there was a commotion here. However, looking at the three of them standing there, they didn’t dare come forward lest they get implicated in the war. They couldn’t afford to offend either side and didn’t want to lose their lives.
Gu Jingze saw Lu Chuxia pulling onto Lin Che. He pushed Lu Chuxia’s arm away and her entire self in the process.
Lu Chuxia had never been treated this way by a man, especially not by a man she fancied.
She instantly lost control of herself and angrily yelled, “Gu Jingze, you dare to push me? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll fight you in this matter?”
Lin Che looked at Lu Chuxia, “Lu Chuxia, I know you like Gu Jingze, but what good does it do for you to harm others? Furthermore, if you like him, you shouldn’t be thinking about letting anything happen to him.”
Lu Chuxia scoffed, “Don’t talk as if you’re some saint, Lin Che. Who do you think you are to lecture me?”
The people inside listened and looked at Lin Che who was beside Gu Jingze. They also thought that Lin Che was over-estimating herself. Even if she had Gu Jingze at her side, this was the Lu family’s house after all. Furthermore, Lu Chuxia was the young mistress of the Lu family.
She was not afraid on Lu Chuxia’s turf and Lu Chuxia really went up against her.
However, at that moment.
“Chuxia, what are you doing again?!”
Lu Qinyu’s voice boomed from behind.
Lin Che turned her head to look.
The Lu family’s old master was already walking over quickly. He looked at Lin Che and was alarmed as if he was recalling something again. He stopped in his tracks and then said angrily to Lu Chuxia, “It’s you making noise again, Chuxia. They are guests and there are so many people watching. What the hell are you doing standing here?”
Lu Chuxia huffed, “Father, are you also going to side with an outsider at home and ignore me?”
Lu Qinyu grunted and said to Lin Che, “Come on in, Miss Lin. Don’t mind this ignorant brat.”
He immediately pulled Lu Chuxia aside and said to Gu Jingze, “I didn’t know this brat would also invite you here. Ignore her. Let’s talk inside.”
Without looking at Lu Chuxia, Gu Jingze took Lin Che in.
Lu Qinyu felt close the moment he looked at Lin Che. He was very warm to her, “It’s so hot today. You must have gotten a sunburn standing outside. Come in and see what you want to drink and eat. I’ll have them prepared for you.”
Lin Che smiled and said, “Thank you, sir. I can eat anything.”
“It’s alright. Treat this place like your own. You don’t need to worry about troubling me. It’s rare for both of you to come and you were even treated that way by that brat Chuxia. Seriously… I will definitely punish her later.”
Lin Che thought that by punishing her, Lu Chuxia would definitely push all the vengeance on herself. She would rather forget it.
“No need, no need. I came uninvited, to begin with,” Lin Che looked around. This place looked gracefully luxurious and beautifully regal. Indeed, the Lu household was also not an ordinary household.
However, Gu Jingyan and Lu Beichen were not around. They had their own place and were like Gu Jingze. They would only come back to the main house if there was anything going on.
Lu Qinyu heard this and immediately said, “Not at all. Even without Jingze bringing you here, you can always come here uninvited by yourself. I welcome you any time.”
Lin Che’s heart warmed at this. They met by pure chance, but the old man was indeed very doting on her. He was really a heartwarmingly nice man.
Lin Che also laughed warmly and said, “Thank you, sir.”
“Good girl. Come, sit down, and eat. What would you like to have? I’ll get the maids to prepare whatever you want.”
Lin Che saw that the interior here was also very cozy. It was a style that old people normally preferred. Outside, there was a huge pond with water lotuses lying on top of it. She liked it very much.
“Wow, that pond is so beautiful,” Lin Che cooed in amazement.
Lu Qinyu laughed and said, “Yes. Why? Do you like ponds?”
“Yes, I like to watch fish and I also like lotuses,” Lin Che replied.
Lu Qinyu heard this and his gaze deepened. He looked at her as in deep in thought. Then, he laughed and said, “Really? You like lotuses? It’s too bad that it’s not in season now. The flowers will only bloom in two months.”
“Yeah, but these lotus leaves also look very nice,” Lin Che said. “Can I go over to take a look?”
“Of course you can. Go ahead,” Lu Qinyu pointed outside.
Lin Che smiled happily, opened the door, and walked out.
Separated by the window, he watched Lin Che look into the water. When the maids brought some fish food to her, Lin Che happily tossed some of it into the water.
Gu Jingze was also silently watching and never spoke a word. Suddenly, he said, “It seems like Mr. Lu is very fond of Lin Che?”
Lu Qinyu turned to him and smiled, “Yes. This lass is really not bad. She’s good-hearted, honest, and especially understanding.”
“Yes. She has always been so pure. And she is naturally sociable.”
“I simply like this kind of lass,” Lu Qinyu remarked.
Gu Jingze said, “I only feel that it can’t be simply because of purity that made you dote on her so much.”
Lu Qinyu sighed and looked at Gu Jingze.
This was indeed Gu Jingze, the sensitive Gu Jingze, the uncheatable Gu Jingze.
He said, “Actually, yes. I liked her and wanted to dote on her the moment I saw her. It’s also because she looks very much like an old friend of mine.”
“Old friend?” Gu Jingze frowned.
Lu Qinyu said, “It’s a very long time ago. During those days, I was more popular in the business world. Some friend dragged me to become a university lecturer for a few years.”
“Oh, I’ve heard about it.”
“Back then, I spent some time teaching in the countryside.”
“Okay.”
“At that time, I had a student at the little community I was assigned to. She was very good, very obedient, and she loved to learn. I could tell that she had the ability and was only limited by this small place. So I groomed her hoping that she would be able to learn well and become self-reliant. I hoped that she could enter a good university. After that, she really worked hard… She was also actually very gifted and was admitted into the university that I was teaching at.”
