Chapter 352: Gu Jingze Said So What If She Did It
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingyan. She didn’t expect Gu Jingyan to stand up for her, so she looked at Gu Jingyan gratefully.
Lu Beichen simply didn’t want to show any friction between the Lu and Gu families in front of so many people and become the laughing stock.
Furthermore, Lu Chuxia was indeed his little sister. He couldn’t possibly side with Lin Che and make people think that the Lu family was humbling themselves to the Gu family.
But now that Gu Jingyan actually opposed him immediately, his heart started to burn. He looked at Gu Jingyan, “Yes, your Gu family is capable. But this is only a small matter now. Do you need to implicate both families?”
Gu Jingyan looked at Lu Beichen, “This concerns a person’s reputation. How is it a small matter? Perhaps you think that what someone else thinks of you is their own problem and has nothing to do with you. But the one getting insulted will actually feel very sad. Why can’t you put yourself in her shoes rather than selfishly trivializing this? You think that you’re doing the right thing when no one cares about the big picture. Aren’t you being too selfish?”
Ever since Gu Jingyan got together with him, many people outside said that she used her status as the Gu family’s young mistress to chase away the weak Fu Chenxi. She was an evil woman for wedging herself between her own friend and her friend’s lover.
Lu Beichen was well aware of this, but never once spoke up for her.
Perhaps he felt the same way in his heart. All this was caused by Gu Jingyan. Perhaps she really used her power to drive him away from the woman he loved?
Lu Beichen looked angrily at Gu Jingyan, “If you’re referring to yourself, just say it. Why do you need to beat about the bush?”
They agreed not to argue in front of others, but neither of them could hold it in now.
Just then, someone asked from behind, “What’s wrong?”
A few of them heard the voice and immediately turned their heads.
Seeing Gu Jingze walking over, a few of them looked back at Lu Chuxia.
Lu Beichen’s face turned red. He glanced at Gu Jingyan and didn’t want to speak with her anymore.
Gu Jingyan also glanced back at him and couldn’t be bothered.
Lin Che felt guilty. Because of her own problem, Gu Jingyan and Lu Beichen suddenly started arguing. Now, she saw that Gu Jingze was here and she quickly looked up at him.
Because she could say anything, Lu Chuxia was already whining from behind, “Gu Jingze. Did you see what your Lin Che has done? She pushed me into the water and even said that she wanted to drown me.”
Lin Che asked in surprise, “What did you say? Since when did I say that I wanted to drown you?”
Lu Chuxia looked at Lin Che and bit her lower lip, “You didn’t say it? You said it just now. Now that Jingze is here, I knew you wouldn’t admit it. But everybody all saw that you pushed me into the water. You can’t deny that, right?”
“Yes, yes. Everybody saw it.”
“Indeed, we all saw Miss Chuxia get pushed into the water by Lin Che.”
Lin Che couldn’t believe that there were such ridiculous people on Earth. They could tell lies and even make it sound like the truth.
She did push Lu Chuxia into the water, but that was because she was retaliating. She didn’t push her on purpose at all.
She looked up, “Gu Jingze, I...”
Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes and swept across the people in front of him.
The crowd couldn’t tell anything from his cold expression. They could never understand what exactly Gu Jingze was thinking about.
Gu Jingze only looked past them and turn to Lin Che. When he lowered his head to face her, his expression warmed up very obviously. Even though he still didn’t have any expression, his gaze was somehow gentler.
“Tell me what happened?”
Lin Che said, “I was just taking a walk here and I saw Lu Chuxia talking to someone.”
She looked at Lu Chuxia.
Lu Chuxia’s eyes flashed as she stared intently at Lin Che.
She wasn’t worried about what Lin Che would say. Anyway, she had already instructed the Lu family’s maids to get rid of the horse quickly and they must have already finished by now. There would be no trace left behind.
She had no evidence. What else could she say?
Even if Lin Che said it, she wouldn’t admit it either.
Lin Che’s eyes looked deeply at Lu Chuxia. She then looked up at Gu Jingze and continued, “I was just taking a walk when Lu Chuxia suddenly came over. She dragged me towards the water and wanted to push me in. I could only retaliate. She wasn’t as strong as me, so I pushed her into the water.”
“Nonsense, I never wanted to push you at all. I just wanted to greet you,” Lu Chuxia was still lying through her teeth.
Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Che.
Lin Che didn’t want to mention the matter with the horse that she overheard just now. She knew that the evidence was already destroyed anyway and there would be no point in saying it. Furthermore, she didn’t want to sabotage the two families’ relationship during this dangerous period, just like Lu Chuxia said.
Thus, she decided to forget it. Anyway, all these were trivial matters to Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze looked at Lu Chuxia who was in a sorry state and then at the unyielding Lin Che.
Everybody behind was all siding with Lu Chuxia and continuously claimed that they saw Lin Che push Lu Chuxia.
But Gu Jingze suddenly took Lin Che’s hand and announced calmly to the crowd, “I believe Lin Che is telling the truth.”
The crowd stumbled.
Lu Chuxia looked furiously at Gu Jingze, “Why do you trust her? She is lying, Jingze!”
Gu Jingze looked at Lu Chuxia, “What’s wrong? Why can’t I trust her?”
“...” The crowd looked at him in astonishment.
Gu Jingze held on to Lin Che’s hand tightly while he looked at the crowd, “I believe that Lin Che is not the kind of person to commit such actions. Even if she did push someone, there must be a reason behind it.”
Lin Che lifted her head and looked at Gu Jingze who was standing by her without hesitation.
The people on the other side were still chattering endlessly and saying, “But we really saw it, Gu Jingze.”
“That’s right, Second Young Master. It was really Lin Che who pushed Miss Chuxia.”
“You can’t just ignore the evidence.”
Gu Jingze’s eyes penetrated the people speaking on the other side, “I don’t want to look at the evidence. So what about it?”
“...”
Gu Jingze said domineeringly, “I trust my woman. She would definitely not do something like this. I believe if she chooses to push someone over, she must have a reason for it.”
He held on to Lin Che tightly, “So if Lin Che really pushed someone, what about it?”
The faces of the onlooking crowd were filled with shock.
This Gu Jingze was just too tyrannical.
He was also simply too protective of his own woman.
He didn’t even have any respect for the Lu family.
Lu Chuxia looked at Gu Jingze. She never thought that he would be so upfront and say these.
Gu Jingze eyes darkened and swept over the crowd, “What’s wrong? Do you guys still plan to do anything to Lin Che? What are you guys intending to do to Lin Che?”
Everyone looked at each other. Yet, who would really dare to do anything to Lin Che?
