Chapter 915: They Just Met Like That

“Really? That’s great!” Lin Che said to Gu Jingze. The two of them were already inside.
They put down their stuff and walked into the hall.
Lin Che saw some familiar faces who were also here for those M Nation activities. Since they were neighboring countries with M Nation being smaller, the two countries had many businesses together. Thus, some well-known C Nation businessmen were also here.
Upon seeing Gu Jingze arrive, everyone came over to greet him.
“President Gu, you’re here too,” someone said.
Gu Jingze smiled and gestured to Lin Che beside him. “This is my wife.”
That person hastily replied, “Mrs. Gu is really young and pretty. She’s very compatible with President Gu.”
Lin Che thanked him politely and looked at Gu Jingze. To think he intentionally mentioned her. Seriously…
That person chatted for a while before Gu Jingze made an excuse and left.
Not long after, word started spreading that Gu Jingze was really nice to his wife, saying hello and then quickly introducing her as if he was afraid that nobody would know.
Another person came to greet Gu Jingze. The man was also very surprised. “President Gu rarely comes to M Nation for such gatherings. Today must be our lucky day.”
Gu Jingze replied, “This time is also a coincidence.”
“Oh yes, I heard that President Han from Bairui Group will be coming too.”
Upon hearing that, Gu Jingze raised his head slightly and looked at the man. “Oh? Is that so?”
“He should be here any minute. He doesn’t like to grace such events either. It’s a coincidence that there’s a charity gala tonight as he’s passionate about charity. That is why he is coming.”
“Oh. And he’s not here yet?”
“Yes, yes, but he probably will be here soon. I just heard that he’s already on his way.”
Gu Jingze smiled. Although it looked light and breezy, his eyes harbored a different meaning.
And at that moment.
Outside, Yun Luo walked into the hotel with an entourage.
She wore a white off-shoulder mini dress. She looked soft and fragile, but people in the hall couldn’t resist turning their heads to look at her.
The one and only heiress of the Yun family.
Yun Luo entered and everyone’s faces turned towards her.
Lin Che’s eyes also followed and she saw Yun Luo walking in fiercely.
It wasn’t fierce in reality, but it looked that way to Lin Che.
She had much more confidence now than she had in C Nation.
She heard someone from behind say, “Yun Luo from the Yun family is here too? What day is this? Is the charity gala that important? This princess never turns up at events.”
“Well, why would she? She doesn’t have to. Did you think everyone is like a social butterfly, going out to socialize every day? Everyone is saying that whoever marries Yun Luo is as good as marrying M Nation because they control M Nation’s entire military force.”
Lin Che thought that these people really had vivid imaginations.
Marrying her was equivalent to marrying M Nation?
Just then, the chatter behind became quiet as they realized that Yun Luo was heading in their direction.
Lin Che looked at Yun Luo.
She was smiling, but it was obvious that she only had Gu Jingze in her eyes. She still did not notice Lin Che at the side.
Yun Luo smiled and said, “Jingze, you really came. Grandpa told me but I’m still very surprised.”
Gu Jingze glances at her. “I’m here for work. Once work is done, I’ll be heading back.”
Yun Luo said, “Ah, I’ve heard from others that you’re here to see President Han from Bairui Group. President Han has many dealings with my family too. If possible, I can help introduce you to each other.”
Gu Jingze smiled. “That’s not necessary. It’s not a visit. I’m just here to take a look. If there’s a chance to meet, we can get to know each other. If there isn’t, that’s fine too. It’s not an urgent matter anyway.”
After that, Gu Jingze did not look at Yun Luo again. Instead, he tugged Lin Che to his side and bent down to ask, “Do you want to eat anything? You didn’t eat on the way here. Are you hungry?”
Lin Che nodded, thinking that he was finding an excuse to leave. She said, “My stomach has been growling the whole day. I want to eat some snacks over there.”
“Come, let me get some for you.”
The two of them held hands and walked away. Yun Luo remained standing there feeling somewhat awkward. However, she looked around and decided to follow them.
“These are all M Nation’s specialties. Since you two are here, try some of the local food,” Yun Luo said as she approached them.
Many of the people behind were M Nation businessmen who did not know Gu Jingze. As Gu Jingze did not really come to M Nation, they were not familiar with him. Thus, seeing so many famous elite businessmen greet a young man submissively, they wondered who this man was.
At first, they were still surprised. Now, the Yun family’s heiress actually headed straight to this handsome man without looking at anyone else.
From the moment Gu Jingze came in, he became the center of attention in the entire hall. Now, he had definitely become the focal point.
Gu Jingze looked at Yun Luo and coldly pushed her hand away.
“My wife is not a fan of M Nation food. She doesn’t like sweet stuff.”
Yun Luo froze.
While she was awkwardly thinking of how to salvage the conversation, someone suddenly announced that President Han had arrived.
Han Chengen was here.
Gu Jingze looked up silently at everyone who was gazing at him.
He saw a tall man who was neither fat nor thin. He looked knightly as he walked from a distance. As he walked, he shook hands with people on the side. He seemed humble and polite, characteristics of a fine businessman.
However, he was alone.
Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes and looked around. That mysterious wife of his was nowhere in sight.
Just then…
Someone suddenly came to Han Chengen’s side and whispered something in his ear.
Han Chengen raised his head slightly and when his gaze reached this side, his eyes were immediately locked on Gu Jingze…
They looked at each other. Gu Jingze’s eyes were deep while Han Chengen’s harbored malice.
Then, a cold smile appeared on Han Chengen’s poised face.
“President Han, Gu Jingze is here. This…” The person beside him whispered.
Han Chengen raised his hand gently. “Let’s not panic. So what if he’s here? We have nothing to fear.”
“But he looks like he wants to attack us…”
“So what if he does?” Han Chengen said, “If he could come so quickly, this fella… is not simple.”
He chuckled and walked towards Gu Jingze.
“President Gu, I’ve heard many things about you.”
He held out his hand and shook Gu Jingze’s.
Gu Jingze smirked. “It’s my honor. I thought that I would never be fated to meet President Han.”
If President Han didn’t intentionally seek after me and played dirty, we would have probably never met.
That last sentence was unnecessary to say. Both of them were clever enough to know what he meant.
