Lin Che laughed awkwardly as she felt exposed.
Gu Jingze turned back to look at Lin Che and said, “Alright. We’ll be there at night.”
Lin Che and Gu Jingze went to Lu Qinyu’s villa at night.
Lu Qinyu looked at Lin Che and congratulated her, “Congratulations, Little Che! I heard that you performed wonderfully. It’s a pity that I didn’t go to watch. However, it’s natural that you managed to gain everyone’s acknowledgment.”
Lin Che smile and thanked him.
She saw that Gu Jingyan was also there.
Looking at Lin Che, she smiled and said, “I only managed to come here after I finished my work the past couple of days. In the end, the competition is already over.”
Lu Qinyu said, “Next time, just let Beichen handle all these things. The company is run by both of you. You don’t have to be so stubborn. Leave some things to Beichen. Isn’t it good to spend more time outside?”
Gu Jingyan smiled. “I think so too, but we divided our work. I do my part a bit slower and I have no way of leaving halfway. Furthermore, I’ve already heard that Lin Che and Chuxia dominated these few days. Other socialites were all interested in participating too, so I decided not to join in.”
She continued, “I cannot win my sister-in-law anyway, right?”
Lin Che blushed and asked, “How can that be? These are just clever tricks. People like you who run a company are the smart ones. It’s a pity that I don’t know how.”
Lin Che stuck out her tongue.
Gu Jingyan said, “With Second Brother around, there’s no need to think so much. Right, Second Brother? You will always have sister-in-law’s back and protect her.”
Lu Qinyu let the attendants prepare and let the group of young people sit down for a chat.
Lu Beichen said, “I saw Chuxia leave crying in the morning. I think she must be gravely affected this time.”
Lin Che said sheepishly, “I’m sorry. We were being so childish at that point. That was why we had such a bet.”
Lu Beichen replied, “It’s alright. She is too used to being so arrogant. It’s good to teach her a little lesson so that she will know that however strong she is, there’ll be someone stronger than her out there.”
Gu Jingyan said, “Also, Sister-in-law, you are indeed capable. This competition was very fair and you didn’t win because of whom you were with. You made all these high and mighty wealthy playboys take a liking to you and admire you. Clearly, you deserve to do it.”
Gu Jingyan looked at Lu Beichen. “Your Chuxia is usually too much. Everything else is fine, but the way she treats my sister-in-law is really overboard. It’s no use saying it. I’m not going to talk to her again this time. She should be able to learn from this lesson herself.”
Lu Beichen said, “I didn’t ask you to talk to her.”
“Yes, but since I’m married into your family, I should carry out my duties, unlike someone who doesn’t know his responsibilities after marriage.”
Lu Beichen looked at her. “Tell me directly if you want to. What’s the point of beating about the bush? There are no outsiders here, so what are you afraid of?”
“This is called beating about the bush? I believe I’ve been direct enough.”
Lin Che quickly looked at Gu Jingze. She didn’t know what to do.
How did they start to quarrel?
Gu Jingze received the cue from Lin Che. He raised his brow and got up, pulling Lin Che together with him. He said, “Alright, we’re going out for a walk. It’s too stuffy in this room.”
Lin Che nodded. She looked back at the couple and then hastily left.
Only the two of them were left in the room. Lu Beichen stood up. “That’s just great. You let your brother witness our perfect marriage this time.”
“Did you think that a clever person like him wouldn’t already have known?”
Lu Beichen stood up and walked towards the door.
Gu Jingyan also stood up. It was bad timing as she bumped into a maid who was bringing some things to them.
The tea spilled all over Gu Jingyan and she shouted in pain.
The teapot also fell and shattered on the ground.
The maid’s face turned pale and she quickly said, “Young Madam, Young Madam, I’m so sorry! I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to!”
Lu Beichen who had just opened the door and was about to walk out heard the commotion.
Gu Jingyan seemed fine. Although she was frustrated, she still said, “I’m fine, I’m fine.”
In the next moment, Lu Beichen pushed the maid to the side. “How do you do your job?”
He pushed the maid aside as he took Gu Jingyan’s arm.
Her fair arm was scalded red.
The maid shivered in fear behind.
Lu Beichen turned to her and said, “What are you still looking at? Quickly get some medication. Don’t you know how to do your job?”
“Y-Y-Yes…” The maid quickly went to fetch the medication.
Seeing that the maid looked so frightened, Gu Jingyan said to Lu Beichen, “That’s enough. You’re so scary. She didn’t do it on purpose either.”
“Shut up. Will just saying that it was not on purpose suffice? What is she doing? It’s such a small matter and she couldn’t do it properly.”
“Everyone makes mistakes.”
“I don’t need you to interfere when I’m managing my subordinates,” Lu Beichen said impatiently as he looked up.
Gu Jingyan retorted, “This is called interfering? I’m giving you a suggestion. It’s a suggestion, get it?”
“That’s enough. If someone else brings it up to me, it can still be a suggestion. If it comes from you, which one of your suggestions was not out to oppose me through all these years?”
“That’s what you think. What can I do about your paranoia?”
“I’m not going to argue over whether I’m being paranoid or you just like harming me. It’s pointless anyway. You vicious snake of a woman. To you, everything that you do is right. It’s as if you don’t care about what anyone else thinks.”
“Ha! Yes, yes, I’m vicious. Why are you bothering me then? Let go of me. This is my hand. However, I scald it has nothing to do with you.”
Gu Jingyan pushed Lu Beichen away.
Being pushed to the side, Lu Beichen looked at her icy face and fumed.
“Fine, fine, I’m being too nosey. I won’t care if you scald yourself to death. Do you really think that I care about you?” He said angrily, “I was angry because my subordinate couldn’t do a proper job. Care about you? You were only lightly scalded. Who’s going to care about you?”
Gu Jingyan looked stubbornly at him. “What a pity. Villains live for centuries and I simply can’t die. It’s nothing much this time, anyway. It’s just red for a while.”
At this moment, the maid hurried back and even specially called their family doctor over.
But the two of them were standing on separate sides with dirty looks on their faces.
The maid was at a lost and didn’t know what to do.
Lu Beichen stared back at Gu Jingyan and told the people who came in to not bother about her. She said that she didn’t need treatment, so get lost. ”
The doctor said, “Young Master Chen… Scalds should still be examined.”
“What’s there to examine? She asked for it.”
“…”
Gu Jingyan said, “That’s enough. If you want to oppose me, just come straight at me. Why must you always scold others around you?”
Lu Beichen glared angrily at Gu Jingyan, opened the door, and then walked out.
The maid stood there uneasily.
