Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Lin Che, why would Situ Qiong get close to you for no rhyme or reason? He obviously has a motive. You will be cheated by him with that intelligence of yours. So, I’m warning you to stay away from him. Otherwise, when you get cheated of everything, don’t come to me for help.”
“I…”
Lin Che speechlessly said, “I don’t think that Situ Qiong has an ulterior motive. Don’t think that every single person is a villain.”
“If I treated everybody like an angel like you do, I would have long been eaten up alive in the business world.” Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes at her. “In any case, you’re not prepared to listen to me and you’re still going to see Situ Qiong, right?”
Lin Che froze and hesitated.
Situ Qiong was a friend to her but now, they couldn’t even meet?
That brief moment of hesitation already made Gu Jingze furious.
He scoffed coldly and immediately slammed the door shut.
“Hey, hey! What’s wrong with you… Open the door. What are you doing?”
Lin Che knocked on the door but heard a ‘click-clack’ sound.
He locked the door from the inside.
Lin Che was immediately enraged. What was the meaning of this? She hasn’t said anything and he was already so mad?
Lin Che said to the door, “Fine, fine. Gu Jingze, you’re not opening the door for me right? So be it! You childish person, tyrant, ****, bully, heartless, cold-blooded, busybody, you…”
Lin Che’s head was bursting and couldn’t think of any more words to describe him at that moment. She simply turned around and walked out.
Outside, the maids looked at one another.
Were they quarreling?
Alright then. It looked like they were not going to have it easy over the next few days too…

The next day.
Lin Che and Yu Minmin were preparing to participate in an activity.
Yu Minmin saw that she looked gloomy and asked, “What happened to you? You totally crushed Lu Chuxia this time. Why are you still so unhappy?”
Lin Che replied, “It’s nothing. I’m just a bit tired.”
Yu Minmin replied speechlessly, “Okay…”
After some thought, she said again, “Why are you tired? It’s still broad daylight and you’re so lethargic… You didn’t seem to have an appetite when eating just now either. Hey, are you… pregnant?”
Lin Che immediately smacked her. “Idiot. What are you thinking?”
“What would be wrong with that? You’re with Gu Jingze every day. Isn’t it normal if you get pregnant?”
“Do you think that Gu Jingze is that kind of person who would do something so uncertain? We take very comprehensive measures.”
Yu Minmin said, “That’s not for certain. The prevention rate for condoms is only 99 percent. That means in one hundred couples, there will be one couple… who will get pregnant.”
“Fine, I’ll tell you. It’s because of that idiot Gu Jingze. He’s angry because I’m close to Situ Qiong.”
“Wow, is he that jealous?” Yu Minmin asked.
Lin Che replied, “Well, he is just so ****. Situ Qiong and I are just friends! He can’t stop me from having friends right?”
Yu Minmin had never seen Situ Qiong, so she couldn’t comment on that.
But just at that moment, someone suddenly saw Lin Che and took off their sunglasses.
“Miss Lin, I didn’t expect to meet you here.”
Lin Che froze and saw that the person in front of her was a stranger.
However, they were at the event venue. No fans could possibly have entered.
Lin Che was still puzzled when the man introduced himself, “I saw Miss Lin’s ballet performance and was very moved. Miss Lin, you are really very good. Oh right, I’m from CC Super Run Club. Are you interested in joining our club?”
It turned out to be some family’s young master who attended the WW party.
She smiled and quickly took his name card, “I’ll think about it, but I don’t really have an interest in racecars.”
He heard this and wanted to elaborate on his passion. Thankfully, the event organizer was here and Lin Che hastily excused herself.
Yu Minmin said, “No way. Even a supercar club wanted to rope you in. You are really popular.”
Lin Che was annoyed and couldn’t be bothered about it.
Yu Minmin said, “This is a wealthy person. Oh my, so many rich men have become your suitors. Lin Che, you must not forget me in the future…”
“Stop it!”
Just then, Lin Che received a call from Situ Qiong.
She handed her phone to Yu Minmin and didn’t care to answer it. She headed to the event.

On the other side.
Gu Jingze looked at Situ Qiong.
Situ Qiong tossed his phone into his pocket. He gazed at Gu Jingze’s posture. “It is rare of you to drop by, President Gu. What brings you here today?”
Gu Jingze said, “I warned you to stay away from Lin Che.”
Situ Qiong replied, “But I don’t think I gave you an answer.”
Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes. “She is already married to a husband. I don’t think I need to remind you of this.”
“You didn’t say that she was forced to marry you. While you may be husband and wife, you two are no ordinary husband and wife.”
Gu Jingze raised his brow.
Situ Qiong said, “Want to know how I knew about all these? I may not go out often, but I still have ears to pick up anything from the outside.”
Gu Jingze replied, “Still, she is my wife.”
“Only for now,” Situ Qiong said. “I don’t think you are ultimately the best choice for her. Lin Che deserves a good man who will love her.”
“Situ Qiong, don’t go overboard,” Gu Jingze’s voice was icy and his expression was cold.
Situ Qiong was really not afraid of anything or anyone. If anybody else were to see Gu Jingze like this, they would already have been scared off. However, Situ Qiong kept his faint smile as he looked at Gu Jingze. “As men, we can have a fair fight when we face a good woman. We will see who she chooses in the end.”
He was being way too ****.
Gu Jingze smiled coldly. “You are indeed bold.”
Situ Qiong said, “You should have been prepared. Lin Che is very attractive. She shines and this makes many people like her. You can never hide her.”
Gu Jingze’s face sank.
Situ Qiong said, “I’ll admit that I like Lin Che and I have feelings for her. So when you ask me to stay away from Lin Che, I can’t do it. I don’t care if she’s married or not. If she’s willing to divorce you and be with me, I will give her the most happiness.”
Situ Qiong looked at Gu Jingze, “There’s no point in you coming here today. I dare to say it in front of you, and in front of everyone else… I will dare to say it too!”
There were sparks everywhere.
The two men stood along the corridor outside the office. They stared at each other and neither of them wanted to break it off first.
