Chapter 676 - How Could They Think Of Holding Their Wedding At A Time Like This?
“When you have money, you don’t have to think about it. You can have romance if you want to have it. It only depends on whether you want it or not.”
“Dear me. I really want a boyfriend like Gu Jingze.”
“Hey, you’re so greedy. If it were me, I wouldn’t even need Gu Jingze to be so romantic. It would be enough for Gu Jingze to be my boyfriend, even if he was out playing around all the time. It wouldn’t matter if he did anything wrong; I would forgive him completely just by looking at his face.”
These people...
Jokingly, they looked at each other disdainfully before scattering in all directions.
Gu Jingze was still going to stay at the Lu residence for the night.
That night, Gu Jingze sneaked into Lin Che’s room directly.
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze gloomily. “You, you, you... why did you come here in the middle of the night?”
Not daring to switch on the lights, she looked at the man at the door and saw that he was a little gloomy.
They had already agreed to stay in two different rooms so that they would not roll around in bed together and cause the maids to speculate and spread rumors everywhere out of boredom.
But Gu Jingze had actually come to knock on her down in the middle of the night...
Gu Jingze held her chin and pushed her directly against the wall before kissing her lips. “It’s fine. No one saw me...”
He stuck his leg out and closed the door at the same time. Then, he pressed her up against the wall immediately...
—
At the hospital.
At least ten people sent messages to Mo Huiling and called her to tell her that everyone was talking about how Gu Jingze had proposed to Lin Che and the two of them were about to hold their wedding very soon.
Mo Huiling sat there and looked at the messages over and over again.
She could not believe it. She could not believe it...
It might have been a rumor if it came from only one person, but if everyone was saying the same thing...
Mo Huiling sat there and let out a shout. She thought to herself indignantly, Lin Che, you’re so shameless. What are you trying to prove by holding a wedding now? You’ve already been married for so long, but you’re only holding a wedding now. What exactly are you trying to prove?!
Mo Huiling whipped out her phone. With her eyes narrowed, she spoke lowly into her phone and said, “Father, do me a favor right now...”

The next day, Abby called Lin Che to ask where she was. Then, she came to the Lu residence to look for Lin Che so that they could go to the company together.
As Yu Minmin had yet to return from S City, Lin Che had to oversee matters in the company. However, she and Yu Minmin had divided their responsibilities. She was in charge of acting while Yu Minmin was in charge of managing the company’s affairs. Thus, she was completely unable to understand some of the documents.
When she asked Abby, Abby had trouble even looking at them and could only say, “It looks like I have to learn a little bit about how to do these things.”
Lin Che said, “Sure. You can learn it if you’re interested. There is skilled personnel in the company who can help you too.”
Abby said, “It’s not that I’m interested in it. I just find myself a failure because I’m so useless right now.”
Lin Che looked at those numbers and forms. She was left with no choice but to ask the great company president for help.
Thus, she immediately called Gu Jingze and said, “Gu Jingze, what do I do? I can’t understand these figures at all.”
“What figures?”
“Some figures from the company.”
On the other end of the line, Gu Jingze remained silent for some time before saying, “Bring it to me and I’ll help you look at it.”
“You mean go to your company?”
“What else? Are you telling me to go to your company to take a look at it?”
“...” He was right. She was the one asking him for help. It would not be nice to ask him to come over.
She hastily agreed and went to Gu Jingze’s company with the documents.
Meanwhile, Abby stayed at the company to learn about other things.
Abby loitered around the company in intense boredom. Everyone was extremely polite to this rich young heiress and left her alone to loiter around.
Abby walked around and heard someone speaking. It turned out that she was in a practice room.
She went in and saw a boy standing there and talking. He had a handsome appearance and had a very sunny disposition. From his face, it appeared that he was at most a few years older than her. He still looked very young.
She stood there, finding him quite amusing. However, after watching for some time she accidentally stepped on something.
With a resounding click, the young man inside saw Abby.
“Ah, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to disturb you,” Abby quickly said.
The person inside happened to be Xue Yang
He looked at Abby and said, “Oh, it’s you.” He then closed his script.
Abby walked in. “Do you know who I am?”
“Hn. Everyone in the company knows that you’re Abby. You’re the rich heiress from Los Angeles who came back with Sister Che.”
Abby walked towards him and saw that he was still packing up his things. She could not help but ask, “Really? Do they all know me? Hey, what were you doing earlier?”
“I was practicing my positioning.” Xue Yang continued, “For a television series.”
“Oh, so you’re an actor. No wonder you look... quite handsome.”
It was true. Abby had seen all kinds of men. There were countless handsome men in Hollywood of different nationalities and different types. So to her, Xue Yang was considered a pretty good-looking man. He was not the most handsome, but he gave off a very pure and pleasant aura.
It was probably his young age and his youthful demeanor that made him seem innocent.
At her compliment, he turned around to look at her.
She tilted her head and smiled. She asked, “What is your role?”
Xue Yang replied, “I’m the second male lead this time and have more scenes than usual. It’s my first time having so many scenes, so I must practice.”
“The second male lead... is that a very difficult role to get?”
“Hm. Sister Yu went through many difficulties to ask for the role on my behalf. I only got the role after I successfully passed the audition.”
“It sounds like being an actor is a very difficult job.”
“Not really. You can probably be one if you want to,” he said as he pulled his backpack off the ground and carried it on his back.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Abby chased after him and asked, “What do you mean? I can be one if I want to?”
“I heard that your family is very rich. As long as you want it, your father will definitely invest so that you can be an actress. Furthermore, you have a pretty good image. It will be easy for you to become famous.”
“Hey.” She continued, “You think that I’m a rich heiress, right? That I live a comfortable and luxurious life? That I can get whatever I want, whenever I want it, right?”
The way she challenged Xue Yang immediately reminded him of someone else.
Annie, Lu Yunshi.
As Eric’s most beloved daughter, she lived a comfortable and luxurious life. However, in actual fact, she could not do anything she wanted to do.
He paused and turned around to look at her. After hesitating slightly, he asked, “Are you living in Los Angeles?”
“Not really. My father has properties in many parts of America. I can basically... stay wherever I want to, but... I really don’t know where I live exactly.”
There were many places where she could stay. But this also meant that she did not know if she had a true home.
Xue Yang asked, “Oh. Then, do you know Eric’s family?”
“Ah, of course, I do.”
“Do you know their daughter, the one named Annie?”
“Hm... I think I’ve met her before. Why? Do you know her?”
Xue Yang nodded and sucked in a breath before smiling. “You can say that.”
Although Abby was very curious, she could only continue walking out with him seeing that he was not willing to divulge too much.
