After they returned home, Gu Jingze went into the bathroom first.

Lin Che’s leg had actually stayed very still the night before, so she lay on the bed. She was fiddling with her phone when she suddenly heard the phone ‘ding’. Someone had sent her a message.

She opened the message only to see that it was a video.

After opening the video, she saw that it was slightly blurry. However, she clearly saw that it was something that had happened today. It was a video of Mo Huiling and Gu Jingze.

The two of them were hugging each other tightly in the cafe.

From this angle, she could see that Mo Huiling was leaning into Gu Jingze’s embrace and reluctant to part with him. Gu Jingze was also slightly reluctant to part with her and had his arm wrapped around her back.

Lin Che immediately bit down on her bottom lip. She looked at her phone as she clenched it in her hand. Her heart suddenly felt stifled for no reason. Thereafter, she smiled grimly and a thought came to her head. Gu Jingze was so reluctant to part with Mo Huiling… but he was still so happily together with her.

Perhaps physical desire really had great power.

She closed her eyes and did not know whether she should feel happy that her charm was actually so great as to render Gu Jingze this besotted with her body or whether she should feel sad that she had unexpectedly become a toy to be played with…

These thoughts were only momentary. Thereafter, she regained her composure again.

Who had sent this to her?

She could not think of anyone else but Mo Huiling.

She had been angry earlier and had thought so terribly of both herself and Gu Jingze. However, she had known Gu Jingze for so long. How could she still not understand that Gu Jingze was definitely not such a person?

Furthermore, she was absolutely not just a toy. She had really looked down upon herself too much.

She lay there with the blanket wrapped around her and deleted the video. Then, she looked up at the bright chandelier on the ceiling.

However, in reality, there was one thing that Mo Huiling had been right about.

After all, Gu Jingze and her had been together for so many years.

Perhaps he really could not bear to leave her…

When Gu Jingze returned, he saw that Lin Che seemed to have already fallen asleep.

He walked over to her quietly. He looked at the side and saw that the ring had already been taken off and placed there.

He picked up the ring and looked it over. He felt that the ring was really very beautiful and suited her very well. However, it seemed that she really did not quite like wearing jewelry.

Moreover, upon carefully thinking about it, she had never even used a single thing out of the many things that they had bought.

Although she seemed like such a money-grubber, at the same time, she seemed to not care about these things at all. This woman… she was really a little difficult to understand.

Perhaps all women liked the momentary feeling at the time of purchase?

Or was it that being a money-grubber was merely a line of defense for her?

When Lin Che came to the company the next day, Yu Minmin said to her, “Before the new year, I arranged for you to attend a talk show. Do you want to attend it?”

“I’ll do it. I’ll attend whatever program there is,” Lin Che said.

Yu Minmin felt that Lin Che seemed to be a little different today. “What happened?”

Lin Che said, “What do you mean ‘what happened’? I want to earn money. I want to participate in everything that can earn me money!”

“Ha. Even the great Madam Gu doesn’t have enough money?” Yu Minmin snorted and said.

Initially, she might even have felt that Lin Che was greedy for money. However, after truly getting to know her, she had at least understood that this silly lass was actually just too simple-minded.

“Who knows when we’ll divorce… Eh, my status as Madam Gu is not so easy to solidify either. The waters are deep in such a rich and powerful family. Eh, you don’t know anything at all. My nose has run so much and I’ve cried so many tears. All the suffering that I’ve been through can be used to write a novel about a torturous love affair in a wealthy family.”

“Get lost!” Yu Minmin said, “If you’re the one in a torturous love affair, then what should we do?”

“If you don’t believe me, forget it. By the way,” Lin Che remembered the things that she had bought for her. “These are for you. Clothes, bags, and these as well. Try them on and see if they look nice. I didn’t really look at them clearly yesterday. I just bought them randomly.”

Yu Minmin opened the bags with pleasant surprise only to see that everything inside was from famous international brands. They were ridiculously expensive products used exclusively by the wealthy. “Why did you buy these things for me? Do you think it’s really good for a salaried employee like me to use these things?”

“I didn’t have a choice. My husband is rich and insisted on me spending the money. Life is so tough for us rich people. How unworthy would it be if I didn’t spend a bit more money? Just take it.”

“… ” Yu Minmin still felt that she was a little different today. However, at the same time, she was full of smiles and she was as carefree as she usually was. It was impossible to figure out what exactly she was thinking in her heart.

However, as Yu Minmin looked through the items, she still could not help but gasp with admiration. “These are probably really expensive. Oh lord, it’s just good to have a rich husband. Oh my god, this is so expensive, I reckon I’ll just keep it at home. I won’t dare to bring it out either. People will think that I suddenly struck it rich by foul means. What if they came to rob me?”

Yu Minmin looked at the items for a while. She did not have any particular desire for these branded goods; it was just that she still found them to be very novel when she looked at them.

She put her gifts aside and thanked Lin Che. Only then did she say, “By the way, someone came here with your contact number. She said that you recommended her for a job here.”

Only then did Lin Che recall the little girl she had seen that day. She quickly said, “Ah, right, right. I met her while I was on the road. I was thinking that her background was pretty pitiful. If it’s possible to help her, let’s just do it.”

The two of them left together. While walking, Lin Che explained the situation that day to Yu Minmin.

When they went out, they immediately saw the girl who was presently sitting warily at the entrance.

Upon seeing Lin Che, she frantically got up. “Oh my god, you’re actually Lin Che. No wonder I found you so familiar that day. I just didn’t dare to say who you were.” The girl shouted in excitement, “But actually, I’m usually too busy and don’t have time to watch television either. That’s the only reason why I didn’t recognize Older Sister. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn’t have forgotten because Older Sister is so famous.”

Lin Che smiled and walked over. “It’s alright. In the first place, celebrities appear quite different on television than they do in real life. On television, they appear a little bigger, a little taller, and their faces also appear a little whiter haha. If I don’t have make-up on in private, there is a bit of a difference.”

“No way. Older Sister, I think that you look so much better right now than on television.” She smiled, put her hand over her mouth, and said, “How did I meet a big celebrity but not know about it at all? I only knew after coming here today.”

Lin Che waited for her to finish expressing her excitement before introducing Yu Minmin to her.

She also said to her, “If you want to work here, you can start as an assistant. It’s a very tough job. If you’re sure that you’ll be willing to do it, we can discuss it again. You can also try it out for two days before making a decision. If you can’t get used to the job and leave, I’ll still pay you based on the number of days you worked.”

“I can get used to it. I can definitely get used to anything. I’m not that pampered. I can withstand all kinds of hardships. I’m very glad to be able to be an assistant.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Minmin said, “In that case, alright. Later, you’ll just come with me and report to work.”

The girl’s name was Yang Lingxin. She told everyone to just call her Xiaoxin.

Yu Minmin went out and saw the girl looking around. She said to Lin Che, “She’s actually quite clever. We’ll see how she does. If she does well in the future, perhaps we can nurture her a little.”

“Really? Anyway, I met her by chance. I also felt that she was quite adorable.”

Yu Minmin said, “You really have such a good heart.”

“That’s a matter of course. But unexpectedly, no man has taken a fancy to a person as kind-hearted as me. Eh. Damn it. I’m just a bit of a tomboy, that’s all. Don’t men say that they just like kind-hearted girls? But in the end, the girls whom they like are still those gentle ones. Damn it, they don’t pay attention to my inner beauty at all.”
