Chapter 687: Had Mo Huiling Gone Mad?Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Youcai replied, “It’s just a rumor. I just found out that Mo Huiling has been taken away for treatment. They’ve engaged many doctors because she’s not in a good mental state.”
Lin Youcai observed Lin Che’s expression.
He had gone to look for Mo Huiling. He had wanted her to fulfill her promise to pay him and to confirm again that they would not continue investigating his Swiss bank accounts. However, he discovered that Mo Huiling had unexpectedly gone mad. They said that she had schizophrenia and that Li Mingyu had taken her away for treatment.
Only then did Lin Youcai realize that there was no one left to help him.
He looked around the office. He knew that this was Gu Jingze’s company, Gu Industries. It looked massive lined along the street.
Lin Youcai sighed and said, “Little Che, whatever the case, just tell me what you want me to do and I’ll do it. I’m your father. Don’t you think that we shouldn’t treat each other like outsiders?”
Lin Youcai did not want to offend Lin Che either. After all, she was so powerful now.
He had had no choice but to offend her previously because he had been blackmailed and had been offered some money.
Now that Mo Huiling was unable to fend for herself, she definitely would not be able to help him. He absolutely had to come and beg for forgiveness. Otherwise, he would not be able to survive if Lin Che really set her heart on opposing him with Gu Jingze’s help.
He hastily said to Lin Che, “I was in the wrong this time. I wouldn’t have hurt you if I hadn’t been threatened. In the future, I will definitely follow your instructions only. I’ll do whatever you tell me to. Alright, Little Che? Right now, you’re the most successful one in our family. I’m very proud of you as well. What’s more, you’re Madam Gu now and you’re also a famous celebrity. You can’t be bothered to deal with an unimportant person like me, right? It would be so tiring to deal with me. You can use the time to go to a beauty parlor or go on a vacation. Either option would be better than wasting time on me, right?” ”
This time, he was sincerely begging for forgiveness. He had lowered himself so much.
Lin Che could not be bothered to speak to a despicable person like him at all. She also found it difficult to believe that her own mother was in love with a man like this back then. Perhaps she had randomly found another man just to heal the wound caused by her previous relationship. Otherwise, a father like this… even though he was her own biological father, it was difficult for her to feel any emotion towards him. No matter how she looked at it, she could not believe at all that her mother would have fallen in love with someone like her father after leaving the Uncle Lu whom she had loved.
Lin Che said, “Yes. I don’t have much time to waste on you. It’s best if you cooperate with me.”
That day, Lin Youcai held a press conference immediately. He expressed condemnation of the person who secretly took the photograph of him and Lin Che and said that he would be taking legal action against that person.
At the press conference, he said, “Ultimately, Lin Che and I are related; she is my daughter. What happens between us is our family matter. Back then, I had let Lin Che and her mother down. Although it looked as if I was kneeling in front of my daughter that day, in actual fact, I was kneeling in front of Lin Che’s mother. I made a momentary mistake back then and did not look after Lin Che’s mother. I caused her to lose her mother when she was ten. I caused her mother to die at a young age. I’ve always felt like I let her down all these years. That’s why I kneeled down, hoping that she would forgive me in heaven. Thus, Lin Che was not being heartless. I know that Lin Che has been working hard. I also clearly knew that people had repeatedly been trying to set her up. They even took photos in secret and deliberately posted them online to taint her reputation. How terrifying all of this must have been for her. My heart really aches for my daughter, so I’m prepared to speak out on her behalf. Besides, daughters are the lovers of their fathers in their past lives. In my younger years, I kneeled on the floor with my daughter riding on my back. I’ve also never had any qualms about things like these. Unlike what people are saying, there’s no serious ethical problem with kneeling in front of my daughter either. I hope that everyone refrains from distorting my intentions. Don’t believe the falsehoods of those recalcitrant outsiders.”
The netizens immediately understood what was happening upon seeing Lin Youcai’s statement.
Many netizens genuinely pitied Lin Che for having lost her mother when she was ten.
Some people commented that it really seemed like they had been set up. The person involved had already stepped forward to clarify things. There had been no fight between them.
Some people suspected that the two of them had already reached an agreement in private since many days had passed before he spoke out. Others wondered if they were doing this to create hype again. It so happened that Witch’s Diary was about to premiere.
However, it did not seem that they were doing this to generate hype since it tainted her own reputation. She would not go so far as to taint her own reputation just to create hype either.
People started to speculate wildly online. Nevertheless, at least this incident had finally come to an end. Most people still felt that Lin Che’s father was right. Someone had probably set them up deliberately. The entertainment industry was chaotic, to begin with. People snatched roles and mutually set each other up. They appeared pleasant on the surface but did plenty of bad things behind the scenes. In actual fact, the netizens were very interested in many of these conspiracy theories and slowly began guessing at the culprit who had framed Lin Che. People would probably stop bringing up this incident after some time.

At the airport.
Li Mingyu instructed the doctor, “Later, just follow Huiling closely. You don’t need to care about anything else.”
“Yes, Mr. Li.”
Li Mingyu frowned and sighed upon seeing Mo Huiling sewing clothes for her child in a frenzy. He walked towards her and pulled her arm. “Huiling, we’re nearly home. Once you’re home, I’ll hire the best doctor to treat you. You’ll definitely get better.”
“Jingze, come and take a look. Aren’t the clothes I made for our child pretty? Our baby will be able to wear it once he’s born. My mother said that I must assist my husband and bring my child up properly. I’m especially obedient and I’m especially good at being Madam Gu. I’m better at it than anyone else.”
Li Mingyu felt his scalp tingle upon hearing Gu Jingze’s name. His expression turned gloomy as he looked at her.
However, he still managed to tolerate it when he glanced at her stomach.
Whatever the case, the child in her womb was his child. No matter what, the child had to be born safely first.
Li Mingyu pulled Mo Huiling to her feet. “Come on, get onto the plane.”
“No. I don’t want to get onto the plane…”
She had exhausted Li Mingyu’s patience. He glared at her viciously. “Get onto the plane quickly!”
Mo Huiling was so frightened by his glare that her expression was full of terror. She frantically grabbed her head and shouted while running out…
Only then did Li Mingyu instruct his subordinates to bring her onto the plane.
When faced with such a lunatic, he really wondered when exactly he would be forced into insanity as well…

Yu Minmin had stayed in S City for a few days. Finally, she and Gu Jingming were heading back to B City.
The infections on Gu Jingming’s wounds had already completely disappeared. His minor injuries could be dealt with at home.
The moment the President’s private plane landed, a row of people rushed towards the Glazed Tile Palace. The doctor had already prepared everything in the Glazed Tile Palace. The entire process of treatment could be carried out directly in the Glazed Tile Palace.
Lin Che was presently waiting in the Glazed Tile Palace. Gu Jingming could not meet just anyone after returning. Lin Che was no exception either. Thus, she first headed to the guest hall to await Yu Minmin’s return.
Lin Che immediately felt immensely relieved when she saw Yu Minmin.
“You’re finally back. How are you? After getting onto a naval vessel and going to the island that day, you really didn’t get hurt, right?”
