The front desk lady said, “I’m sorry. This is our hotel policy.”
Just then, someone called out from behind, “Wow, it’s Lin Che! Quick, look. Isn’t that Lin Che?”
Lin Che was discovered.
Some fans started running towards her.
“Lin Che, Lin Che!”
“Lin Che, can I get a photo with you?”
“Can I have your autograph?”
“Wow, is this your pet dog?”
Lin Che smiled at everyone and said, “Sorry sorry. I have an emergency to tend to today.”
Prince was still in her arms. She couldn’t casually leave him anywhere and he could not be squeezed. She carried the dog and spoke apologetically. However, the fans around her were already screaming so loudly that they couldn’t hear her. This invited more and more attention.
Lin Che tried to squeeze her way out as best as she could. It was her first time being in such a situation and she didn’t really know how to leave this place.
However, at this moment…
A car suddenly stopped at the entrance.
“Lin Che?”
Lin Che froze and saw the car window wind down to reveal a man wearing sunglasses. It was Lu Beichen.
Lin Che said, “Lu Beichen, you…”
“Come, get in.”
Lin Che quickly nodded and went in the car.
Thanks to Lu Beichen’s sudden appearance, Lin Che finally shook off the hoard coming at her just now and quickly left the place.
She turned back to look at the crowd who was still calling out her name. Lin Che heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Prince. She said, “What a relief…”
Lu Beichen smiled as he drove. He looked at Lin Che through the mirror. “What happened? Why aren’t your bodyguards with you?”
Lin Che smiled sheepishly. “I… There’s a little problem between Gu Jingze and me…”
“A problem?” Lu Beichen was curious as he looked at Lin Che. He asked in surprise, “By a problem, do you mean… you guys fought?”
“Well…”
“It must be. Oh my, I understand. You must have just quarreled and you wanted to stay at a hotel. Then, you were discovered and got surrounded, right?”
Lin Che scratched her head. “How did you guess?”
“Of course. Gu Jingyan pulls a stunt like this every once in a while. She would leave the house after a fight. I know this tactic all too well.”
“Okay, but how did you know I was here?”
“I was eating nearby and when I came here, I heard a lot of people calling you and running over here. Thus, I came over to take a look too and I saw that you were surrounded.”
“Luckily, you came… Thank you.”
“It’s alright, but where do you want to go now?”
Lin Che caressed Prince’s white fur. “I’ll… find a hotel to stay at.”
Lu Beichen looked at Lin Che for a while and then said, “What hotel? It’s too dangerous for you to stay by yourself in a hotel. Furthermore, you’re a public figure so it’s even more dangerous. Why don’t you come to my place?”
“Huh? Your place… That’s not such a good idea.”
“It’s okay. Our home may not be as big as the Gu household, but we still have a lot of empty rooms. Furthermore, my father likes you a lot. He’ll be very happy if you become our guest. Jingyan has been at home a lot lately too and you can chat with her. Isn’t it so much better than staying outside?”
“But…” On one hand, Lin Che didn’t want to trouble him too much. On the other hand, she felt that if Gu Jingze looked her up at the Lu household… Lu Beichen wouldn’t just hand her over like that, would he?
Lu Beichen seemed to understand her concerns just by looking at her face. He said, “Don’t worry. If Gu Jingze comes, I’ll teach him a lesson on your behalf.” Lu Beichen raised a brow as he held the steering wheel and said, “Hey, he’s always the one trying to teach me a lesson. This time, it’s finally my turn.”
“…”
Lu Beichen chuckled. “So rest assured. I definitely won’t hand you over to Gu Jingze so easily. It’s not every day that I get such an opportunity. I’ll make him admit to his mistake on your behalf. Oh right, you didn’t tell me why you are so angry?”
Thinking about it now, Lin Che felt embarrassed to say it. She pursed her lips and thought, This was just a small matter. If she said it out loud, she would definitely be laughed at.
Lu Beichen asked, “Is it not convenient to say?”
“No, it’s just a small matter…” Lin Che blushed.
Lu Beichen laughed and said, “A small matter… I’m most experienced at this. Just look at Jingyan and me. How many times have we quarreled over small matters? We’ve quarreled about every possible small matter and I can understand that. If two people don’t get along, the issue doesn’t matter. What matters is your emotions. If one wants to argue, one would definitely argue no matter what it is about. Isn’t that right?”
Lin Che thought about it. He really did make sense.
Lin Che indeed did not argue with Gu Jingze solely because of this matter. It was probably because of stress or some other major causes.
Ever since that problem with Mo Huiling, she always wanted to trust Gu Jingze and did not want any outsiders to affect their relationship. Thus, she never vented her own emotions. She had always been an expressive person, but she suppressed her emotions this time. Thus, it led to a little tantrum.
She vented it on the wrong matter this time. She simply wanted to pick a fight with Gu Jingze.
Lin Che thought about it and told Lu Beichen in simple terms.
Gu Jingze did not like Lu Beichen because of Gu Jingyan. However, Lin Che thought that Lu Beichen was still a very good person and he was trustworthy.
Lu Beichen heard this and immediately hit the steering wheel. He said, “How ridiculous. Tsk tsk. I’ll definitely teach him a lesson for you. How can he take the chance that you’re overseas to take Mo Huiling to the hospital? Even if there must have been a reason, he should have told you honestly. Seriously, how could he hide a thing like this from you? You did the right thing. Just wait for him to come here. I’ll definitely give him a good lashing.”
Lin Che pouted. She didn’t see him come out to find her when she left. Who knew what he was doing?
Lin Che arrived at the Lu household. Lu Beichen instructed the maids to prepare a room for her.
Lu Tingyu was quickly informed of Lin Che’s arrival. He quickly had the kitchen cook up a good meal and told Lin Che to join them.
At the dining table, Lu Tingyu looked at Lin Che and said happily, “It’s great that you can stay here for a while. Stay longer. Stay as long as you want. Tell us what you need.”
Gu Jingyan very soon came over. She looked at Lin Che. “I heard it all from Lu Beichen. What happened to you guys? Why are you also starting to fight now? How can my second brother bear to fight you?”
“Well…”
Lu Beichen interrupted her and said, “What? Your second brother can’t argue too? All men are the same and your brother is no exception. What did you think?”
Gu Jingyan glared at him. “You and your excuses. My second brother is not like you at all.”
Lin Che laughed sheepishly. Lu Tingyu said, “Alright, Beichen. You think that everybody is like you.” He instructed the attendants to pick more food for Lin Che as he said, “Don’t mind them. Eat some more.”
Lin Che smiled and said, “Thank you, Uncle Lu.”
