Her eyes moved. When she questioned why Lin Che brought so many people out with her, she didn’t expect these people to be presidential guards.

But of course, when Madam President steps out, she had to have presidential guards with her. Otherwise, if something really happened, that would be a national event.

However, Mo Huiling forgot that Madam President was also Lin Che’s good friend now.

Who would have thought that Lin Che would even have the presidential guards’ protection now?

How grand would it look whenever she was outside?

Not even Mo Huiling enjoyed this grandeur before.

Yu Minmin looked at the guards and said to them, “Stop her and don’t let her come to us.”

After that, she said to Lin Che, “Maybe we should leave first.”

Lin Che nodded. “Okay.”

Both of them went elsewhere. Mo Huiling wanted to scold them, but looking at these presidential guards…

She really did not dare to offend them.

These people came from the battlefield. Every single one of them was ruthless and only listened to orders from Glazed Tile Palace. They swore upon their lives to protect national security. No average person could afford to offend them.

Mo Huiling could only watch as Yu Minmin and Lin Che strolled along the district.

The row of presidential guards kept a comfortable distance behind as they watched silently.

She forgot that Lin Che was not the same as before. In the past, she was a powerless little subject. Now, she had such power at her side.

Lin Che sent Yu Minmin off and returned home to see the maids giving Prince a bath in the backyard.

Lin Che walked over and smiled. “Oh my, Prince is getting all squeaky clean.”

Prince looked at her and was so excited that he wanted to go to her.

Lin Che quickly went to him, “Don’t move, don’t move. We’ll play after you’re all clean and dry.”

The maid smiled and said, “He is happy to see Madam.”

Lin Che squatted down and wanted to bathe Prince with them.

But the maids did not let her. “Madam, you should step aside. It won’t be good if your clothes get dirty. Let us do it. We’ll be done very soon anyway.”

Lin Che looked at her clothes which were rather expensive. Although she didn’t know the value, she knew that the caretaker always bought clothes from reputable brands.

Seeing that they were indeed almost done, she decided to listen to them and sit at the side and wait. The maids blew dry Prince thoroughly, sprayed some fragrant deworming water on his body, wiped him clean, and then put him down.

Immediately, Prince quickly ran towards Lin Che.

Lin Che picked up Prince. “Alright, alright. I’ll take you inside for some treats.”

Inside, Lin Che turned around and wanted to find some treats for Prince. She put Prince down on the ground. “Don’t wander off, Prince. There’ll be treats for you soon.”

Behind, the maids were also looking after Prince.

Just then, Prince ran out and the maids scrambled to chase after him.

Outside, Mo Huiling returned and was frightened by a dog.

“Oh my! Why is there a dog here…”

Mo Huiling exclaimed.

Prince was still unaware. He was usually the precious gem in the house. Wherever he went, everyone was courteous to him.

After all, everyone knew that this was Lin Che’s dog. She was very fond of him and this raised his status up. In order to make Madam happy, none of them dared to belittle this dog.

But at this moment, Mo Huiling kicked the dog to the side.

The dog yelped.

Lin Che naturally heard it at once.

She quickly hurried over. The maids were already holding onto Prince.

Mo Huiling exclaimed, “Why is there a dog in here?”

Lin Che asked, “What are you doing, Mo Huiling? It’s my dog. Do you have a problem with that?”

Mo Huiling looked at her in disbelief.

Gu Jingze actually let her keep a dog.

She was sure that Gu Jingze clearly hated any creature with fur.

Lin Che grunted. She carried the dog and ignored Mo Huiling. She looked at Prince as she walked back inside, “Are you okay? Does it hurt?”

The Gu residence was very huge. When Mo Huiling moved in, she was too lazy to look around. In the past, she also never walked through the entire house.

Now, Mo Huiling felt that this house was already completely different from the Gu residence that she knew.

After looking around, she really felt amazed. The Gu residence was really big. It was much, much bigger than the Mo residence.

Furthermore, she saw that there was a room specially designated for Lin Che’s clothes.

She went in and browsed through it casually. There were so many clothes and a lot of them were completely brand new.

There were even many brands that she always wanted to get, but these were limited edition pieces. Even if one had the money, it didn’t mean that it could be purchased just like that.

She thought, Even a country bumpkin like Lin Che is fit to wear all these?

She scoffed and continued looking. Sure enough, she saw the room specially for Lin Che’s dog.

She felt so unjust that she kicked the dog bowl away and in the process implicated her shoulder. It hurt so bad that she gritted her teeth.

Just then, she heard Gu Jingze return.

She quickly ran out.

Downstairs, Gu Jingze only came in to pick up some things.

Lin Che was playing with Prince when she saw Gu Jingze and said, “You’re back. See? His royal highness Prince and I are here to welcome you.”

“Go go go. I don’t want him.” He pushed Prince away and hugged Lin Che. Not caring if anyone else was around, he planted a kiss on her lips.

Mo Huiling saw this just as she wanted to go downstairs.

Her heart ached. She leaned against the door as her tears almost fell.

Fortunately, the maids were already used to their public displays of affection. Looking at this romantic and beautiful picture, the maids smiled and asked, “Sir, are you back to eat?”

“No, I need to continue working at the office. I came back to grab some stuff.”

Lin Che heard this and asked, “Huh, you still need to go back to work? You’re not eating?”

“Yes, I’m not hungry yet. It’s been busy recently.”

Lin Che pouted. Alright then. She would not disturb him if he was busy with work.

But Gu Jingze was aware of her thoughts.

Looking inside, Gu Jingze said, “Come, I’ll take you out.”

“Huh? Out?”

“You’re free now anyway and you’re just resting at home. Come with me to the office.”

Lin Che hesitated and said, “Won’t I be disturbing you…”

“As long as you don’t suddenly sit on my lap again, you won’t disturb me.”

“…” Lin Che recalled that time when she came back and went straight to sit on his lap…

She hammered his shoulder, but when she turned back to look at the house, she thought that it was better to be at the company.

She asked, “Can I bring Prince along?”

“What?”

Lin Che said, “We can just find a place in your company to wait for you. He won’t wander off…”

What if she left Prince at home and he got bullied?

She could not guarantee that Mo Huiling wouldn’t do anything to Prince when she wasn’t around.

Gu Jingze looked at that unsightly dog.

Nevermind. A dog was better than some people. Some people were even more unsightly.

He said, “Let’s go.”

“Really? That’s great! Hehe.”

Lin Che immediately walked out happily with Gu Jingze.
