“No,” Lin Che looked up and smiled. “I’m leaving.”

As she spoke, she did not bother with Gu Jingyu and hopped into the car.

The nanny car drove to the Gu house. Lin Che got out and entered the house. It felt empty.

What was Gu Jingze doing? With that… woman who matched him so well and liked him so much. Was he attending the summit with her in another country?

Ah, why was her mind running wild again?

Shaking her head, she thought about calling Granny and quickly did so.

Granny chuckled in the phone, “Little Che, did you just get home? It’s so late.”

“Yes. Am I disturbing you?”

“Of course not. I’m old and I don’t sleep that much. I wasn’t sleeping. You can call me whenever you want to. I’m all alone and I have plenty of time.”

Yes, Granny was all alone there.

“Then, Granny… I’ll go look for you and stay with you for a few days. What do you say?”

“Huh? You want to come here… Ah, but it’s so small here. It’s really small. If you come here… won’t you mind it?”

“Why would I? Granny, I don’t mind…”

Lin Che then called Yu Minmin and told her that she needed a few days off from the crew. She was going to accompany Granny during those days.

Yu Minmin asked her what was wrong but Lin Che only said that Granny was getting old and just needed some company.

Lin Che also called Gu Jingyu and told him that she was taking a break and going to visit Granny.

Gu Jingyu heard this and readily agreed. He told her not to worry and there was no hurry as the filming was ahead of schedule.

After settling everything, Lin Che bought a plane ticket.

The journey from the B city to the little village in the north required a three-hour flight and a two-hour train ride.

Lin Che packed her belongings and said that she didn’t need any accompaniment. She only wanted to be with Granny.

The housekeeper was puzzled but since she was the madam, they had no reason to stop her. They could only quickly report it to Gu Jingze.

Although the two places were close, there was still a time difference.

When they tried to call Gu Jingze, he was already asleep.

Lin Che left early the next morning.

Meanwhile, at Gu Jingze’s side.

After he woke up, he had breakfast in his own villa.

Lu Chuxia immediately ran over but when she entered, the bodyguard blocked her out. She exclaimed at the door, “Jingze, your bodyguards here are so strict.”

Gu Jingze looked at her and continued cutting the piece of chicken on his breakfast plate. He remained seated and waved to let her in.

Lu Chuxia walked towards him, sat down and said, “I haven’t eaten. Can I get some too?”

Gu Jingze raised his hand and gestured for another serving.

Lu Chuxia said, “Hey, why are you ignoring me? Your wife must be too bored when she’s with you. She’s so hyper. How can she stand being with you?”

Gu Jingze looked at her, “How do you know that she’s hyper?”

Lu Chuxia said, “Because people of that class aren’t educated on etiquette, so they are usually more hyper. Also, your sister also said that she’s rather lively. Your personalities are so different. It must be a disaster living together.”

Gu Jingze only smiled, “Nope, we get along very well. You think too much.”

Lin Che was very lively and hyper, but he liked hearing her talk. No matter what she said, he found it all very interesting. Perhaps it was because she was always so carefree and she said whatever that came to her mind. Sometimes, there weren’t any links between two sentences and it made him all the more amused.

Lu Chuxia naturally didn’t believe that. She asked, “Since there’s nothing today, why don’t we go out together?”

“I have work to do.”

“How about I keep you company while you work here? When both sexes get together, the work gets lighter right?”

“Sorry, I don’t like having anyone by my side when I work.”

This outright rejection made Lu Chuxia feel extremely frustrated.

She had never come across any man who didn’t give her face.

But he was Gu Jingze.

When she left Gu Jingze’s villa, she really wanted to see just what was so good about that Lin Che. Since she was a celebrity, she decided to look up Lin Che’s information.

The phone was already in her hand, but her pride once again made her keep it.

Lin Che was just an actress. How could she be worthy of being her competitor?

There was no woman who could keep Gu Jingze from looking at her. His claim that he got along well with Lin Che was all because he wanted to reject her.

She knew it, but she didn’t feel embarrassed at all.

After all, Gu Jingze was Gu Jingze. He was different from other men. If he was so easily attracted by beauty and lust like any other man, he wouldn’t be Gu Jingze.

Gu Jingze very soon completed his task here. He was on his way back.

The private jet quickly arrived at his destination and he walked through his private exit. Just then, he saw the news talking about Gu Jingyu.

In the picture, Gu Jingyu was with Lin Che. The reporter went to the scene and the news was playing. The host of the entertainment news segment said, “The two of them are long-time partners. They are good friends in private and they have a lot of chemistry. This time, they are acting as a doomed couple and we’re not sure if we could mirror it onto their real lives. There were rumors about them previously but they have all been denied. Many fans are anticipating that they end up together.”

Gu Jingze was walking out with his entourage and saw the image of them acting on screen. He stopped in his tracks.

Looking up, he asked the people behind, “Why is the airport playing entertainment news?”

“…”

The airport staff quickly said, “Sorry, sorry, Mr. Gu. We’ll change that right now.”

They never heard that Gu Jingze had such a problem. He didn’t like watching the entertainment news?

Gu Jingze knew that he said he wouldn’t bother about her work.

Her work involved acting with others.

Her work would also inevitably involve rumors.

It was fine if he didn’t see it, but now that he saw it…

He felt his heart burning up very quickly.

In no time, he was already outside and he rushed home.

Upon entering the door, he tossed his clothes and tie aside. The maids quickly followed from behind, “Sir.”

“Sir, welcome back.”

“Where’s my wife?” Gu Jingze’s face was dark. Everyone could tell that he was angry.

Gu Jingze was rarely angry. Even if he was in a bad mood or internally angry, he rarely showed it on his face.

But now, his face was dark. Anybody who saw wouldn’t have dared to get close to him.

“Sir… Don’t panic. We tried to inform you yesterday, but it was late and you were already asleep. Madam left town.”

“What?” he asked in a surprised voice. “To where? How come nobody told me? Did she go with Third Young Master?”

“She boarded the plane an hour before you came back. She must be already on her way now.”

“Where exactly did she go?”

“She said that she was going to visit her grandmother…”

Gu Jingze froze.
