Chapter 350: She Fell Into The Water and Screamed For Help
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Che did not want to sit on a horse recommended by her, but Lu Chuxia passionately tugged at Lin Che’s hand. Lin Che didn’t know how to reject her at all.
As Lu Chuxia dragged Lin Che out, the people behind looked enviously at Lin Che, “Miss Chuxia is an excellent rider. Nothing can go wrong with Miss Chuxia’s recommendation.”
This way, it seemed as if Lin Che wasn’t giving face to Lu Chuxia by rejecting her in front of so many people.
However, Lin Che really didn’t want to go with her.
At this moment, Gu Jingze suddenly came from behind and stopped Lin Che.
He pulled Lin Che to stand behind him as he looked at Lu Chuxia and said, “No need. I’ll pick a horse for her.”
Lu Chuxia’s eyes flashed and she looked at Gu Jingze, “What’s the matter? Do you not trust me?”
“That’s right,” Gu Jingze said nonchalantly. He turned and pulled Lin Che away with him.
Everybody looked in shock at Gu Jingze’s tyranny.
He didn’t give face to Lu Chuxia at all.
But Lu Chuxia was at a complete loss too. She stood behind, unable to utter a single word and she could only watch as Gu Jingze take Lin Che away.
Lu Beichen watched and said to Lu Chuxia, “Well, he’s just like that. What can you do about it?”
The people behind who heard this began to talk among themselves. That was indeed Gu Jingze; he was always so straightforward.
However, this must have been terribly embarrassing for Lu Chuxia.
A few people couldn’t help but comfort her, “Miss Chuxia, forget about it. Let’s go over there and choose the horses ourselves.”
Gu Jingze was really overbearing as he disregarded the Lu family. However, the Lu family seemed unable to take any action on him.
Lu Chuxia was rejected directly. She could only maintain her silence as she watched him walk away.
She really wanted to get angry too, but she knew that it would not solve any problems. It was undeniable that nothing could be done to Gu Jingze.
Lin Che let out a sigh of relief as she was taken away by Gu Jingze. She looked at the horse in front of her and said to Gu Jingze, “I don’t know how to ride a horse. What should I do...”
“It’s fine. I’ll be with you. There is a horse that I’ve raised here; we can ride on it together. He is stable enough to carry both of us.”
“Wow, really? That’s great! Hehe, I was still afraid that I’d be a disgrace because I don’t know how to ride a horse.”
“Knowing how silly you are, how could I let you disgrace yourself?” He gently tapped her nose and pulled her towards the stable.
The people behind saw Gu Jingze and Lin Che ride a horse together, strolling and strutting about. On one hand, they were really envious of watching those two riding a horse together. On the other hand, they thought that Gu Jingze was just too indifferent.
But who would have guessed that Gu Jingze’s personality was like this? Trying to talk to him was as hard as trying to ascend to the Heavens. Everyone was accustomed to his attitude and was therefore even more jealous of Lin Che who was on the horse with him. Looking at them laughing without a worry for the world, everyone was curious as to what abilities this woman had that allowed her to talk to Gu Jingze so happily with no effort at all.
Lu Chuxia watched from behind and started to feel extremely uncomfortable in her heart. She stopped riding immediately and went straight inside.
Lin Che and Gu Jingze only rode for a while. Gu Jingze was worried that riding the horse would be detrimental to Lin Che’s body, so he wanted to let her down to rest.
“There is no need. I want to ride for a bit longer.”
“No. You only just got stitches. This would not be good.” He said.
Lin Che stumbled and replied, “Please? That was so long ago.”
“No means no. That area is specially made for me... You have to protect it for me,” he whispered softly in her ears.
“Get lost,” she stabbed him with her elbow.
The two of them laughed and got off the horse together, oblivious to the onlooking crowd around them.
They were all shocked at the fact that a lady in this world dared to jab Gu Jingze.
But Gu Jingze was not angry. Instead, he seemed to enjoy the jab and this made them even more alarmed.
When Lu Beichen came along and mentioned that Gu Jingyan was inside preparing afternoon tea, they went in. Lin Che was feeling bored, so she decided to go out for a walk. After locking eyes with Gu Jingze for a minute, she ran out smiling.
Outside, the horse ranch’s air was extremely refreshing. One could see the mountain range from far away. It was very rejuvenating to get some sunlight after staying in for so long.
At this moment, she saw Lu Chuxia reprimanding someone inside.
“You were only given one simple task but yet you’re so stupid. Even the horse was so disobedient! It couldn’t even knock down one person.”
It was Lu Chuxia...
Lin Che walked a little closer and saw her criticizing a maid.
The maid hurriedly replied, “Miss, I tried, but Mr. Gu was too close to her. I couldn’t avoid him.”
“Then, you should have gone ahead and hit them. What were you afraid of?”
“I was afraid of how the Lu family was going to answer if we hit Mr. Gu.”
“You would not have been able to hit Gu Jingze. Who do you think Gu Jingze is? Would he be so easily knocked over by someone else? He would have dodged it for sure. Now, look what you’ve done. We were so close, so very close to trampling that little slut.”
Lin Che’s body instantly tightened up. Were they talking about the horse just now?
Just then, she accidentally stepped on some horse grains and a crunch sounded from under her foot.
Lu Chuxia turned around and saw Lin Che.
Flustered, Lin Che turned around and started walking away, towards the outside.
Lu Chuxia’s eyes flashed. She turned around and said to the maid, “Get rid of the horse and make sure that there are no traces left behind.”
“Yes, Miss.”
Thereafter, Lu Chuxia brandished the whip in her hands and walked over.
“Lin Che, what are you doing?”
“I’m... I’m taking a walk,” she pretended to have not overheard their conversation just now to prevent Lu Chuxia from acting disadvantageously towards her.
“Oh, taking a walk. Did you happen to hear anything just now?”
“Sorry, what are you talking about?” She was indeed an actress and was skilled at acting
Lu Chuxia had her suspicions. Did Lin Che really just walk by and heard nothing? However, She would not believe Lin Che based entirely on her word.
“No matter what you heard, I’ll see if you have the guts to tell Gu Jingze about this. Lin Che, let me tell you this. You better understand this clearly. Right now, the Gu family obviously has an enemy that is attacking Gu Jingze in the dark. No matter how powerful the Gu family is, it would still be much more advantageous with the Lu family assisting them. Regardless of what you’ve heard, do you think that Gu Jingze would dare do anything to me just because of a mere person like you?”
Lin Che looked at Lu Chuxia, “I don’t understand what you are talking about. But... I’ve been out for far too long. I should get ready to head back.”
Looking at Lin Che leave, Lu Chuxia followed behind closely.
Lin Che did not look back and ran ahead as if she didn’t know what was happening.
Lu Chuxia caught up immediately and started tugging Lin Che’s arm.
Lin Che would most definitely not allow others to simply touch her. She turned around and started struggling with Lu Chuxia.
“You little slut! How dare you hit me?! How dare you retaliate?! Who do you think you are?!”
“You were the one who started it first. Why shouldn’t I retaliate?”
Lu Chuxia saw a man-made lake in the distance and started to manifest malicious thoughts in her heart. She might as well just throw this woman into the lake and drown her.
Gu Jingze only liked her for her face anyway. There were pretty ladies everywhere. He wouldn’t dare to offend the Lu family over a woman.
In for a penny, in for a pound. Lu Chuxia immediately dragged Lin Che towards that direction.
How could Lin Che not tell that she was planning to drag her into the water?
However, she had underestimated Lin Che. Lin Che was not a vegetarian nor a princess. She was a tough girl who had bumped and knocked around while growing up. Therefore, at this moment beside the lake, Lin Che resisted Lu Chuxia with all her might.
Despite using all her strength, Lu Chuxia was unable to toss her in. Just then, she felt a push from Lin Che. Only then did she manage to react and realize that Lin Che was pretending to be weak for this opportunity.
The next moment, Lu Chuxia fell directly into the lake.
“Ah... Help, help...” Lu Chuxia shouted.
