Neither Lin Che nor Gu Jingze paid any attention to her.

Gu Jingze kept looking at Lin Che.

“What are you looking at?”

Lin Che was looking at the map carefully. Then, she said to him, “I’m looking at the map on my phone to choose a location. There’s a moat nearby and the side of the moat will probably be a good location.”

“Too many mosquitoes.”

“…” Lin Che figured it was true. “In that case, there’s a park there. We can probably do it in the park.”

“It’s too dark.”

“That’s true. The lighting is poor. All the lights in the park are very dim. Then, what do you think about the apartments there?”

“Too many people.”

“…” Lin Che glared at Gu Jingze. This man was really troublesome.

“Whatever, whatever. Let’s just do it by the moatside. I don’t care about the mosquitoes either. Anyway, we’re going to burn charcoal for the barbecue. At the worst, I’ll put some bug repellent on you, hahaha.”

“…”

Gu Jingze’s face darkened.

Lin Che could not imagine what Gu Jingze would look like with bug repellent all over his body.

He was always so refined and seemed as if he was untainted and incorruptible. If he had bug repellent all over him…

Right now, she was actually looking forward to it.

A while later, Yu Minmin caught up with them.

Shen Youran’s car also followed.

Lin Che sent them messages over WeChat to inform them of the location so that they could go there.

A few minutes later, the car stopped at one of the more scenic areas by the moatside.

After alighting from the car, Yu Minmin walked towards them and said, “The scenery here is not bad.”

Thereafter, Shen Youran alighted and shouted, “Lin Che, Minmin, I’m here.”

Behind her, Chen Yucheng said, “I didn’t expect President Gu to be in such a good mood today. He actually came for the barbecue.”

Holding the railing, Gu Jingze glanced at him before looking at the moat.

Down below, the water in the moat was sparkling. The light it reflected was slightly neon in color and shone like the stars.

While chattering away, the girls began setting up the barbecue grill, the chairs, the tables, the sauces, and the skewers. Once everything was ready, they started barbecuing the food in no time. The aroma spread everywhere. Lin Che sat there and looked at Gu Jingze and Chen Yucheng. They were resting comfortably and talking to one another with no intention of coming to man the barbecue at all.

Shen Youran said, “They’re not even coming here to barbecue the food. Did they come here to feed the mosquitoes?”

Lin Che glanced at them too and said, “Forget it, forget it.”

She was already used to it.

Yu Minmin said, “Forget it. Lin Che’s probably used to being busy while the deity in her house reaps what she sows.”

“Go away.” Lin Che glared at her.

However, it was true that Gu Jingze did nothing at home. This was all the more so when it came to things like barbecuing and handling the fire. Of course, he would not do them.

Lin Che was used to it. She was accustomed to Gu Jingze treading on clouds like a celestial being all the time and being so lofty and superior. Instead, it was extremely normal to her and she did not find it strange at all.

But this was precisely how Gu Jingze was.

However, Lin Che nudged Shen Youran first. “How’s it going? How far has your relationship developed?”

Shen Youran responded in disbelief, “What are you talking about… We… Nothing has happened between us.”

“I’ll give you a chance to quickly tell me the truth. Otherwise, I’ll go ask Doctor Chen later. I believe Doctor Chen will definitely be willing to tell me the truth.”

“Alright, alright, I’ll tell you… I’ll tell you, okay…” Shen Youran continued, “Anyway, forget about it at this point… I’m his student right now.”

“What? You were doing fine with him. Why did you become his student?” Lin Che said.

Shen Youran said, “I’m learning psychology from him. I’m also thinking about the issue of my academic qualifications. In the near future, I may apply to a school and continue furthering my studies.”

Lin Che was still zoning out when Yu Minmin said from over there, “Alright, alright. Teacher-student relationships are all the rage right now. Hehe, they’re so avant-garde.”

“Get lost. You guys are too dirty-minded!”

Lin Che nodded her head in understanding. “So that’s what’s happening now. I’m the one who’s outdated!”

At the moment, Yang Lingxin was watching them from the side but stayed silent.

Lin Che served Yang Lingxin the food that she had barbecued. “Come, try the chicken wings I barbecued.”

“Thank you, Sister Che. It’s alright, I’ll do it myself. You can barbecue food for President Gu first. He’s been waiting for such a long time. He probably got hungry a while ago.”

Yu Minmin said, “Wow, Little Xin is so sensible.”

Lin Che’s eyes crinkled as she smiled. She raised her head and called out, “Gu Jingze, stop chatting. The food is ready, come quickly and eat.”

Gu Jingze walked towards them trippingly. He looked around before squeezing into the seat beside Lin Che’s.

Lin Che instinctively brought the food to his lips. “Open your mouth.”

Gu Jingze looked at the food she had barbecued and asked, “Is this thing edible?”

“Of course it’s edible… alright, stop staring at it. Eating dirty food won’t make you sick. Just open your mouth.” While saying this, Lin Che stuffed the food directly into Gu Jingze’s mouth.

Gu Jingze could only eat it.

Over on the other side, everyone else was staring at the two of them in complete astonishment.

Gu Jingze chewed the food and unexpectedly found that it tasted pretty good. But he still looked at her with a sour expression and said, “I dare you to stuff food into my mouth again!”

“I’m serving you and you’re still being so unwilling.” She picked up another piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

However, Gu Jingze suddenly bit her finger.

Lin Che shouted in surprise.

Gu Jingze smiled darkly.

Lin Che’s fingertip hurt from having been bitten. She shouted at him, “Gu Jingze, were you born in the dog year?”

Gu Jingze said, “Hm, hm. It tastes quite good.” He licked his lips in a show of great satisfaction.

The people opposite them were even more shocked.

Shen Youran immediately asked, “Hey, hey, hey. Is there dog food for us single dogs? Let’s eat some dog food together…”

The single people were about to go crazy because of the display of affection.

They did not expect the usual interaction between Gu Jingze and Lin Che to be like this.

Their interactions were too sweet.

They totally could not tell that Gu Jingze had quite a fun personality.

Although these were small interactions typical of daily life, they were unbelievably sweet.

All of Lin Che’s and Gu Jingze’s actions were instinctual and they never thought that everyone would be so surprised by their actions.

They raised their heads and saw that everyone was staring at them in surprise. Only then did Lin Che say with a somber expression, “What are you looking at? What are you all looking at? If you don’t watch the grill, the food will be burnt. Why are you still looking at me? Is my face edible?”

However, as she spoke, her face easily turned red.

This Gu Jingze, why did he have to bite her finger here…

He even described it so suggestively.

He was really too evil!

Yang Lingxin looked on from the side as she silently ate her chicken wings. With her eyes fixed on Gu Jingze’s calm face, she found herself thinking.

If only he could treat her that way.

It was a pity that he did not look twice at anyone else. He simply went to sit beside Lin Che and placed his hands on her waist suggestively. His actions were very ordinary yet very sweet, making her yearn for such a relationship…

While everyone was eating barbecued meat, Yu Minmin said, “Don’t forget that you have to participate in promotional activities for the movie in a few days. The movie is about to premiere, so there will definitely be more schedules during this period.”

Shen Youran said, “You guys are really busy. By the way, didn’t you say that you had to visit the countryside?”

Yu Minmin said, “My stomach was hurting yesterday, so we canceled the visit today…”

Speaking of her stomachache…

She involuntarily blushed. Her stomach had stopped hurting, but she was now hurting somewhere else…
