It was as if the words were stuck in her chest. Even if she had the breath, she could not speak up.

When Gu Jingze got angry, she did not expect him to have such a formidable pressure in his silence.

No wonder the leaders of the Gu family was practically dependent on him.

No wonder everyone was so afraid of him.

This king-like aura was probably God’s gift to him. Thus, even though he didn’t say anything over the line, he didn’t need to say anything at all. Just his stare was already enough.

Gu Lanshan was not happy, but she could only quietly swallow her own words. She looked at Gu Xiande and felt that even he could not hold Gu Jingze back. How could she have the ability to oppose him then? She could only bear with it for the time being. Meanwhile, her hatred for Lin Che grew.

So many maids and family members were looking and waiting for her to say something, but she was reprimanded by Gu Jingze right there. Where could she put her face now?

As a daughter of the Gu family, she had never been so embarrassed in her life.

Gu Xiande cleared his throat and slowly hoisted himself up. He looked at Gu Jingze. “My suggestion on this is still to hold your horses. I know that you’ve grown up now and I can’t control you, but for the sake of Lin Che’s reputation, you should also think this through carefully. Do you really want to hold a wedding with Lin Che so suddenly and let outsiders look at this commotion? As long as the child problem is not resolved, the more high-profile you and Lin Che are, the more they will insult Lin Che. I know that many people are siding Lin Che but the more support she gets, the more she will shine and the more underhanded people will be. You better think carefully about this. Whether I’m just trying to scare you or not, you should know better than me.”

Gu Xiande grunted and looked at Gu Lanshan.

Gu Lanshan was so angry that she stared back angrily at Gu Xiande.

Gu Jingze turned and left abruptly as if he did not hear Gu Xiande’s words at all.

Mu Wanqing was hesitant, but she couldn’t help much in this matter. She could only clench her hands worriedly as lament filled her heart.

Who knew that one accident that time would lead to so many changes today? She could only sigh. It was Lin Che’s fate to have an unstable life. That was why so many problems surfaced.

However, she was also an experienced person. She knew that no matter who it was who married into the Gu family, they would experience a similar process. After all, it was lonely at the top. She had been on top for many years and was already used to being targeted. She was only afraid that… Now, it was Lin Che who was going to take over this position. For someone as innocent as her, she would not be able to withstand it completely.

Gu Lanshan could not conceal the anger in her whole body, “Father, Jingze is ridiculous! He’s opposing me now because of a woman! I am his aunt!”

Gu Xiande said, “Stop it. You were forcing him. I also don’t know exactly how great his ability is. He has always been this unreadable since he was a child. This small brain of his hid so many ideas that even I couldn’t figure out. I also can’t guess the amount of power and ability he holds in his hands. And you still want to force him?”

“But…”

“Enough. We have not gotten to that stage yet. Don’t be so anxious in your actions.”

Gu Jingze never cared about relationships even when he was with Mo Huiling. Gu Lanshan never thought that he would be this stubborn.

Now, the aloof Gu Jingze actually gave his first tinge of affection to Lin Che.

That Lin Che was way too lucky. She was such an average little subject with an average background. Because of Gu Jingze’s protection, she immediately flew to the branches as a phoenix. She was no longer average.

However, thinking about this great disparity and how a person with such an origin was going to stand above her head, Gu Lanshan was extremely furious.

Lin Che brought her staff to the airport.

Everyone looked at Lin Che excitedly as they walked through the private passageway to the private airport. Curiosity filled all their eyes.

“Sister Che, this is amazing! It’s my first time flying in such a plane.”

“The passage here is so different from the normal one. Sister Che, you’re absurd. It’s crazy that you’re taking us overseas on a private plane. Everybody would die of envy if they knew.”

“They’ll be envious that you followed the right person. You’re not the capable one; Sister Che is.”

Everyone gleefully entered the VIP lounge which had everything including fruits, drinks, and snacks. Everyone saw this and was stunned. Lin Che smiled and said, “I borrowed it just to make everyone feel a little more comfortable. After all, the flight is more than ten hours long.”

“It’s a private plane. Of course, it’ll be comfortable. Sister Che, you’re really so good to us.”

“Exactly. I’ll exude all my fire in the future and help Sister Che blaze a new trail.”

They were a group of young people. Thus, it was very lively when they gathered together and boarded the plane.

Just before take-off, Yu Minmin called Lin Che and said, “Let me know once you’ve arrived there.”

“Okay. Can every one of you stop treating me like a child? I have so many people with me. How can I get lost?”

Yu Minmin heard this and chuckled, “You can’t blame me. Blame it on that one in your home. He called me up this morning and told me to take good care of you. Oh my, you’re so precious to him. I’m afraid that you would melt in my mouth and fall through my hands…”

“Get lost…”

“It’s really hard to imagine that this person turns out to be Gu Jingze.”

“Okay okay, I’m hanging up. We’re taking off soon.”

“Alright, alright. I’ll spare you but please do be careful. Leave everything on this side to me. Don’t worry about it.”

“Such a drag, Yu Minmin. You’re really becoming quite the nagger!”

Lin Che hung up and the plane was preparing to take off.

Because they were all together, they could talk and laugh all the way. This made the flight duration more durable.

The hours passed very quickly and they disembarked the plane. The crew on the other side picked them up.

The crew was also very surprised when they heard that Lin Che’s crew was arriving in a private plane.

They did not expect C Nation actors to be so generous and fly in private planes.

They did not dare to be any more scornful. They believed that Lin Che looked like a big shot in C Nation and her value was high. Thus, they were a lot warmer towards her as they took her and her crew to the hotel to rest.

Meanwhile, in C Nation.

Mo Huiling called Gu Lanshan a few times but she did not pick up.

Because Gu Lanshan was embarrassed at the Gu household this time, she wondered if she chose the right person. She thought that this Mo Huiling was really so useless that she couldn’t win over Lin Che. She felt that it was Mo Huiling who caused her embarrassment.

Mo Huiling still did not know what happened with the Gu family. She only vaguely heard rumors that Gu Jingze was going to hold a wedding with Lin Che in the near future.

She was stunned. The image of Lin Che and Gu Jingze in matrimony was like a thousand stabs to her heart.

Gu Jingze really wanted to marry Lin Che?
