“How was it? Has it ended?” Hearing Gu Jingze’s voice made Lin Che feel as if she was in a dream and stepping back into reality.

He always had that calm and soothing voice. It was so beautiful that it could pull anyone who was in a foul mood back into the spring breeze.

She suddenly found herself missing him a lot and she wanted to see him badly.

Lin Che said, “Hm, yes. I’ll be done soon.”

“I was just about done too. Shall I pick you up?”

“Yes, okay.”

Lin Che happily replied. Thinking that she was going to be able to see Gu Jingze immediately, her face broke into a beautiful smile.

Qin Wanwan noticed Lin Che smiling. She walked over and asked, “What are you doing? I haven’t congratulated you for your win. Let’s go out and celebrate tonight.”

Lin Che laughed and said, “No, I’m leaving soon.”

“So fast? Who are you going to celebrate with?” Qin Wanwan asked and her eyes shifted to Gu Jingyu who was talking to someone else.

Lin Che said, “It’s not him. Anyway, I’m heading out first. Enjoy yourselves!”

Without saying anything else, Lin Che made a beeline for the exit.

Qin Wanwan watched in puzzlement. Why was she running away so fast as if she was in a hurry to meet someone?

Gu Jingze’s car was stopped by the road.

Lin Che ran over and saw Gu Jingze quickly get out of the car.

He was still wearing what he wore to work: a proper and traditional suit. It didn’t look old-fashioned on him at all. Instead, it made him look more gentlemanly and graceful. Overall, he looked extremely dashing.

Lin Che realized that she really liked seeing Gu Jingze dress formally like that. It was so uniform and full of control.

Seeing Gu Jingze made her feel that she was actually already sufficiently lucky. For an average girl like her to be able to stand beside Gu Jingze, thinking about it, many girls couldn’t see him even if they lined up waiting. She felt that she was already very bullish.

Running over, Lin Che asked, “You’re not busy today?”

Gu Jingze looked at her get-up and smiled in admiration. He pulled her into the car with him.

“Did you win the award?” he asked.

Lin Che pouted, “No but I won the online poll for Most Popular Actress. It’s also very rare.”

“Why? Are you unhappy?” Gu Jingze looked at her and asked.

Lin Che sighed and said, “Would it be very vulgar if I said that I am indeed unhappy and disappointed at this point?”

“Ha, you’re still concerned about being vulgar?” Gu Jingze said.

“Of course. If I’m vulgar, the big CEO won’t like it.”

Gu Jingze rolled his eyes at her.

Indeed, he did not like vulgar women. However, he didn’t feel any hatred towards her kind of vulgarness at all.

Lin Che lowered her head and said, “It’s nothing. I just feel a little letdown. Although I knew from the beginning that it was impossible, I couldn’t resist thinking that maybe there could be a miracle. Now that there was no miracle, I’m disappointed.”

Gu Jingze couldn’t bear to see her look so down. Although she only frowned a little, his heart already ached for her.

He didn’t want to see her face any obstacle in her life. He wanted to offer her his greatest protection and make everything go smoothly for her. He knew that it was impossible but he was upset that she was unhappy.

He was never this sensitive when it came to Mo Huiling last time. But towards Lin Che, he was fastidious.

Gu Jingze thought for a while, “This is also a very normal thing. You will get over it after a few days. Alright, don’t think so much. Since we have plenty of time, let’s go shopping.”

“Shopping? I don’t think there is any place we can shop at this time.”

“Think about where you’d like to go.”

Lin Che pondered, “Then can we go watch a movie?”

A movie?

Gu Jingze thought that it was a really boring activity.

But looking down at Lin Che and seeing the anticipation glistening in her eyes, he forced himself to agree, “Okay, I’ll go watch a movie with you.”

“Wow! Really?” Lin Che exclaimed in surprise. She didn’t expect Gu Jingze to agree.

Gu Jingze saw her suddenly happy again. Her smile reached the depths of his heart and finally made him more willing.

This woman was like a piece of blank paper; any mood was so truthfully written on her face. She could be so happy just from a small matter. It really made him very speechless.

Gu Jingze said, “Go get changed before I change my mind.”

She was still wearing her evening gown, which she couldn’t possibly go to the theatre in.

Both of them went to change their clothes before driving to the cinema.

It was already midnight but there were still many people at the cinema.

Lin Che wore a surgical mask and cap to cover herself as she looked at people going back and forth. Gu Jingze was also dressed very low-profile. The trouble made Lin Che feel slightly embarrassed. She looked up at Gu Jingze and said, “Gu Jingze, tell me. I’m troubling you again, aren’t I? You probably don’t like coming to the cinema.”

Gu Jingze looked down at Lin Che. Although she was very troublesome, he was touched by her words every single time. He thought that she was the one who was being troubled and he no longer thought that it was hard to accept.

In any case, it was as if he simply couldn’t reject any of her requests. Even if his brain told him that he didn’t want to, his heart was still very willing.

“Indeed, I don’t like coming here. Why don’t we head back,” he tilted his head and intentionally teased her.

“No no, Hubby, watch a movie with me, please. Other husbands watch movies with their wives.” The dumb woman indeed fell for his trap. She immediately tugged his hand and began begging him.

He wanted to laugh but he kept a straight face. At that moment, he somehow really enjoyed hearing her beg and call him ‘Hubby’. He always wanted to hear her say that word.

“Hubby, Hubby, you see? Take it as a life experience. If the big CEO doesn’t step into the life of a commoner, how would he know what the commoners need? You need to go undercover once in a while so that you know what everybody is doing.”

Seriously, yet another twisted logic.

Gu Jingze said, “Fine, let’s go buy tickets.”

Lin Che heard this and immediately began selecting the movie happily.

“What do you think is good?” she mulled over the list.

“Actually, I’m not that familiar with movies,” he remarked.

Lin Che said, “Do you really not watch movies at all?”

“I like to watch some old movies but I haven’t seen new ones. Do you think that everybody is as free as you? I don’t have the time to bother about all these. Even if it was an old movie, I haven’t seen one in two years.”

Lin Che lifted her head and looked at Gu Jingze. For a moment, she felt that it was actually very pitiful. It must be tiring.

It was indeed not easy to be a big CEO.

Lin Che wanted to continue selecting but she realized that people were starting to look over at them curiously.
