Lin Che looked at this girl who did not have principles. Was she not afraid of spraining her back from flattering him so eagerly just because of this?

However, she did not know if Gu Jingze was being charitable today or if he suddenly found Shen Youran pleasing to the eye. He suddenly said again, “After Miss Shen returned, did you look for a job?”

“Huh? Not yet. I looked for some but found them all to be unsuitable.”

Gu Jingze said, “Why don’t you send your documents to Lin Che? I’ll get someone to check if our company has any suitable jobs to recommend to you.”

“Gu Industries?” Shen Youran’s eyes immediately began to shine.

The Gu Industries was indubitably a top multi-national corporation. An ordinary person could not get in.

Shen Youran hastily said, “President Gu, you’re really such a good person. Who exactly did Lin Che save in her last life to have the fortune to meet you in this life?”

“…” Lin Che really could not tolerate it any longer. She looked at Shen Youran and said, “Are you giving up our friendship for a job?”

Shen Youran squinted her eyes at her. “How can I do that? It’s only because I know you that I found out that such a good husband still exists on this earth. Lin Che, I don’t think I will be able to find a man in the future who treats his wife as well as your husband does. I think that no one is as loving as your husband, seriously!”

“…”

At the side, Chen Yucheng could not believe her either. He had truly never seen a woman who could flatter someone in such a refreshing and unusual manner.

Lin Che knew that since Gu Jingze had stepped in to resolve the issue, it should be very easy to deal with.

When they went out, Lin Che said to Gu Jingze, “Thanks for helping Shen Youran.”

“If you’re really grateful, then help me massage my legs when we go back.”

“Why… ”

“Otherwise, what meaning does a verbal ‘thank you’ have?”

Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze gloomily. He was really an unscrupulous businessman. He wanted profit for whatever he did!

Lin Che went back home with Gu Jingze. Qin Hao had finally returned from Cambodia and Gu Jingze instructed him to investigate exactly which school Lin Che had attended in the past.

After returning, Qin Hao was extremely cautious. He did not speak another word and decided to behave himself for some time before he gets chased away to Cambodia again.

When he came out, he bumped into Lin Che who was on her way in. He hastily lowered his head and simply ran out.

Lin Che was perplexed. She entered and said, “Why did Assistant Qin leave in a hurry earlier?”

“Hn, I told him to settle some matters.” Seeing her walk in, Gu Jingze smiled and propped his legs up. “Come and massage my legs for me.”

With a face full of reluctance, Lin Che pursed her lips and walked to him. She squatted beside him, put her hands on his legs, and started massaging him.

With one look, Gu Jingze saw a script at the side. He thought that it might be Lin Che’s script, so he picked it up and started to read it.

“Use strength. Use more strength.”

“Did you not eat?”

“Alright. This amount of force is still alright. Not bad, Lin Che. Now, your massage skills have finally begun to improve too.”

Speechless, Lin Che thought that her skills had only improved because he had been tormenting her.

However, she saw with a glance that he was unexpectedly holding her script and reading it. She froze immediately before frantically grabbing at him. “Gu Jingze, why are you looking at my things?”

Gu Jingze dodged her attempts. He looked at Lin Che again and said, “Is this the television series you’re filming now?”

“Yes…”

Gu Jingze read out a line, “Sorry, I stopped loving you a long time ago. Everything that I did to you was simply to make use of you. I used you to prepare everything properly for me before I could abandon you. You can only blame yourself for being too stupid…

Why did a normal line feel so strange when Gu Jingze read it out in all seriousness?

“Where did your screenwriter graduate from? Why is this written so badly?”

“Get lost! Our screenwriter is a reputable and important screenwriter. What do you know?” Lin Che hastily leaned over to snatch it from him.

Gu Jingze looked at the lower part of the script. There was even a kissing scene.

His face immediately darkened and he glared at Lin Che.

Lin Che did not know what he was looking at and was still confused. “What are you doing? Why are you glaring at me?”

Gu Jingze coughed dryly and said, “It’s nothing. Do you need to practice a little at home before you can go and act?”

Lin Che said, “Yes. I brought the script home precisely to look at the lines in my spare time.”

Gu Jingze said, “I’ll help you practice.”

Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze dumbfounded. “Forget it. What do you know? Judging from your skill just based on that line you read out earlier, I wouldn’t be able to stay in my role. Don’t even talk about practicing. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to hold it in tomorrow and laugh out loud during filming.”

Gu Jingze said, “If you don’t try, how do you know that I can’t do it?”

“Reciting lines from a script requires fundamental skills too. You have to learn it for a very long time in school. You obviously lack the skills in reciting lines.”

While smiling, Gu Jingze held the script in one hand and leaned slightly closer to her. “Alright. Then, let’s not practice this part first. Let’s practice some other part first.”

“Ah, practice which part first?”

Lin Che was still perplexed. What else was there in this part besides the dialogue?

Gu Jingze had already pushed her down swiftly. He hooked her neck with one arm and pulled her head to him. His fingers waded through her hair and he captured her lips in a deep kiss.

Immediately, Lin Che was momentarily suffocated before she registered what was happening.

After God knows how long, she pushed him away while panting. She touched her red and moist lips. “Gu Jingze!”

“I reckon that I’m not too skilled in reading lines, but I think I’m still very well-versed when it comes to this scene.”

Only then did Lin Che recall that this part of the script had a scene where the male lead intentionally and forcefully kissed the female lead.

Her face turned completely red. She knew that she was being teased again.

“There’s no way that they’ll stick their tongues out in kissing scenes on television. Furthermore, most of the scenes make use of angles to film. No one does it like you.” She snorted with a red face and could only scold him, “Hoodlum!”

Gu Jingze simply began to laugh out loud.

He did not at all want to interfere with things like kissing scenes in the course of her filming.

However, it was probably impossible to make him really go and watch it.

He respected her profession and did not want to affect her professionalism. However, he could not see it for his own eyes. If he saw it, he knew that he would definitely not be able to bear it.

Lin Che snorted and looked at him. In her heart, she felt that he was indeed right. His kissing skills were, as a matter of fact, not bad.

She did not know where he learned them from either.

However, he probably had not really kissed anyone because of his illness.

Was it really as he said? Did these things involve human instinct?

If this was really the case, then his human instincts were really strong.

She still felt a numbing sensation in her mouth because he had sucked her breath away earlier. She humphed, picked up her script, and just ran off.

As for Gu Jingze, he was just touching his own lips.

His desire for her had still not subsided. Instead, it even seemed to have intensified.

He had to draw in a deep breath before he could suppress the thought of wanting to push her down again.

Earlier, he had, in fact, wanted to give it a try to check if his desire was still equally strong. Now that things had turned out this way, he could neither laugh nor cry.

If it was a mistake for something like that to happen on the day that he was sick, then the same mistake could still be tolerated for a second time. What would happen if he made that mistake a third time?
