Lu Chuxia smiled, “Jingze… I just like you. Think about it properly. In what way do I pale compared to that actress wife of yours? I’m definitely better than her in every way. Use your brain to think about who suits you better. You don’t have a child right now anyway. Even if you divorce, it won’t affect anybody.”

Gu Jingze looked at Lu Chuxia, “Fine. I will think about it. But I hope you won’t be angry if the results don’t satisfy you.”

Lu Chuxia said, “I know that you are much smarter than me. If I can understand things, how can you not, right?”

But just then, Gu Jingze was already feeling as if something wasn’t right with him.

He could not tell anyone about his illness. His own family knew, but Lu Chuxia naturally wouldn’t know.

He said in a hurry, “Yes, I’ll consider it.” Afterward, he said, “I have something to tend to. Tell my mother that I won’t be going in for now.” He then quickly called Chen Yucheng.

The symptoms of his illness were showing.

In the office.

Chen Yucheng looked at Gu Jingze depressingly, “Okay, it’s still alright. This won’t develop into rashes. It’s only red.”

Gu Jingze looked at his own face and sighed. This Chuxia.

Chen Yucheng said, “Do you want to let Mrs. Gu know?”

Gu Jingze shook his head, “There’s no need.”

Chen Yucheng said, “But this lady really took the initiative and is open-minded. She knows about President Gu’s family affairs and still gets so close to President Gu.”

Gu Jingze shook his head and said, “She has been spoiled growing up. Since she was young, she was also this tyrannical. I’m used to it. It had always been for fun. There’s no need to take it seriously.”

“Is that so?” Chen Yucheng said. “But if President Gu really joined the Lu family, it would actually be a good thing for the Gu Industries too.”

Gu Jingze shot a cold look at him.

Chen Yucheng quickly said, “I’m just kidding. So what are you going to do now?”

Gu Jingze said, “I promised that I would consider it.”

“Okay…”

Gu Jingze did calculate it in his heart. Logically, she was indeed better suited for Gu Industries. She was also the type that he originally liked. She was a famous socialite, well-read, confident, and wise. However, he didn’t feel the same way with her as he did with Lin Che.

Thinking about Lin Che, she was clearly not his type. However, he had an inexplicable impulse for her.

But for Lu Chuxia…

He only treated her like a sister. There was no difference from the way he treated Gu Jingyan.

Thus, even after reconsidering, he still didn’t want to leave Lin Che at all.

When Lin Che was still at the film set, she suddenly received a call from home. The maid told her that Gu Jingze was ill.

Lin Che immediately panicked. She quickly went to tell Gu Jingyu that something cropped up and she needed to leave.

Gu Jingyu was extremely puzzled. He looked at Lin Che’s panicked expression and asked, “Why? What happened? You must tell me if you need my help.”

No, it’s just… matters at home. I’m going.”

Gu Jingyu heard this and said, “Let someone send you.”

“No need, no need. My company has a car.”

Gu Jingyu never saw such panic on this brat’s face before. He only figured that something must have cropped up. Thus, he walked her out.

The director caught up from behind because people would definitely follow wherever Gu Jingyu went. He was Gu Jingyu, after all.

However, he saw that Gu Jingyu was only sending Lin Che out. Their eyes met and they were interacting. Who would have thought that Gu Jingyu would care about this brat so much?

In the office.

Lin Che anxiously rushed over and saw Shen Youran there.

“Youran, you’re here… This is just right. I heard that Gu Jingze is ill. Where is he?”

Shen Youran looked at Lin Che and asked, “Hey, what is going on? Gu Jingze just broke up with Mo Huiling. How did he end up getting entangled with some Lu Chuxia person?”

Lin Che froze.

Lu Chuxia…

So his illness this time was because of Lu Chuxia.

Lu Chuxia… What did she do with him to make him sick…

Lin Che only felt her face stiffen up. Her body also became weak because of this information. She didn’t want to dash in anymore. She stood still right there and didn’t react for some time.

No, why did she care so much? Who was he to her? She didn’t need to care so much. Anyway, they already agreed from the beginning that there would be no feelings. It was only a marriage.

He was her husband, but he wasn’t her lover.

Right, he had always been her husband only…

But why did this make her shiver? It was as if this chilly feeling ran from her heart right through every cell in her body, making her entire body feel cold.

Shen Youran noticed her change and tugged at her to ask, “What happened? Who exactly is that Lu Chuxia?”

Lin Che looked at Shen Youran. She quickly retracted the panic on her face, “She’s the daughter of a family that has a status that compares to the Gu family. I heard that she’s a socialite and she’s very well-known in the circle.”

Shen Youran heard this and remembered that they could always look like a socialite’s level of fame online, “I don’t believe that she can be so famous. Can she be as famous as you?”

“Hey, don’t check. That’s a different kind of fame.”

But Shen Youran was already entering the name into her phone, unwilling to admit defeat. The search engine immediately showed images of Lu Chuxia.

The photo seemed to be from a banquet. She wore a long, wrapped dress and looked beautiful. She indeed looked similar to Mo Huiling last time.

“Eh, I didn’t expect her to be really famous,” Shen Youran said haughtily. “The second missy of the Lu family, Lu Beichen’s sister. A flower in the socialite circle. She’s very popular and the dream lover of many eligible bachelors. Pfft, she’s not as pretty as you.”

However, the comments below were frankly saying that they were different from celebrities. They relied on their qualities rather than their faces. Socialites were socialites. Their family statuses were considered as well.

Shen Youran said exasperatedly, “This Gu Jingze already has a wife. Why did he get involved with this kind of woman?”

Shen Youran saw that Lin Che was standing there and not looking so good. She quickly said, “Well, I don’t mean it. It was probably just an accidental touch.”

For him to fall sick… that touch must have been deep enough.

Also, she heard Chen Yucheng say before that it usually only acted up when he came into contact with sweat or saliva.

If it was an accidental touch, how could he have fallen sick?

It must have at least been an intimate interaction.

Lin Che looked up at Shen Youran, “Didn’t I tell you that Gu Jingze and I… We’re different from your average married couple. It’s fine. We’ll talk again after I go in to check on him.”
