Chapter 1225 I Call The Shots Here Now

the corners of lin che’s lips turned up. the angle was just enough to show a hint of mockery. “although niannian is still young, he’s gu jingze’s biological son. putting aside the fact that gu jingze is only gone temporarily, even if he never returned, niannian would naturally be the one to succeed him as the master of the gu family. what are all of you trying to do? are you bullying niannian for his young age and me since i’m a woman too?”

everyone was momentarily speechless. as for lin che, she had never contemplated giving them another chance to speak.

“now, i’ll take charge of gu jingze’s personal guards for the time being. i’ll also take charge of the master’s guards temporarily. as usual, all matters will be handed to the headquarters to deal with. each family’s affairs will be dealt with as they have been. there’s no need to change this. if anything crops up, let qin hao know about it and he will then pass it on to me. anyone who disagrees can come to the headquarters and have a chat with me!”

“eh. she’s going to take over just like that...”

“what the hell? why is it her...”

everyone still had something to say. but they looked outside and saw gu jingze’s personal guards looking straight ahead in complete silence. it seemed that they were now firmly in lin che’s control.

gu jingze’s right-hand man, qin hao, was also beside them. everyone else seemed to have immense trust in lin che.

the people who used to be led by gu jingze were now tightly gathered around lin che, obeying her every command.

they could not resist even if they wanted to.

the row of people could only slowly disperse...

“oh no, is the gu family going to change its surname to lin?”

“enough. who could’ve expected gu jingze’s subordinates, who are usually so intelligent, to band together now and side with lin che?”

“i couldn’t have known. she usually pretends that she knows nothing. but she has a way of winning people over.”

“indeed. now, all of them obey her. after her, there’s also her son, and her daughter too. what... else can we do?”

at the moment, xue mengqi was still standing there desolately.

however, she had long been forgotten completely and totally ignored.

there was no way she could have imagined that lin che would put everything to rest upon her arrival. she did not say anything particularly encouraging either and immediately gave such straightforward instructions. xue mengqi was left with no chance to retort at all.

as she stood there and watched the crowd disperse, xue mengqi truly felt as if she was going to be driven mad.

was lin che here for the precise purpose of opposing her?

but it was true that she had not expected this woman, who had always been a mere pretty face, to suddenly become so unyielding today.

just then, lin che turned her head around slowly and looked at xue mengqi who stood at the side.

feigning to have just seen her, lin che asked, “oh, why is miss xue still here?”

hehe. why was she still here...

xue mengqi looked at the expression on lin che’s face. it was clearly a mocking one.

she said, “it’s nothing. i’m about to leave. but since you’ve just taken over, you can ask me if there’s anything you don’t know.”

“oh. is that so? i don’t think that will be necessary. i think assistant qin will know whatever i don’t know. if assistant qin doesn’t know, someone else will know too. besides, although you’re very capable, you haven’t been to the headquarters before. i reckon there are many problems you’re not familiar with. don’t worry. there’s no need to worry about me. there are many people here. i trust that they will be able to teach me many things since they’ve all been in the headquarters for so many years. i’m so touched that you’re so concerned about me.”

xue mengqi’s face turned even paler.

yes. ultimately, she had never been to the headquarters either. and when she looked over, the capable people by gu jingze’s side were all around lin che. indeed, careless mistakes would not easily occur with them around.

xue mengqi’s heart started to feel tumultuous once again.

hmph. there was nothing great about her. it was just because gu jingze had built the foundations for her...

but the frustrating thing was that these people were actually going to abide by the instructions of an entertainer who knew nothing.

xue mengqi left with a cold expression on her face. lin che looked in her direction and merely cast her a glance before turning her head. then, she asked qin hao, “is everything ready at the headquarters?”

qin hao said, “madam, don’t worry. everything is ready.”

lin che inhaled deeply. “hn. have you arranged for people to investigate gu jingze’s whereabouts?”

“yes. we’re always on the lookout.”

“very good. let me know if there’s any news. now... let’s go to the headquarters.”

—

gu jingze opened his eyes slowly.

the first thing he saw was a pink color. but the moment he lifted his head, he saw an lan in front of him.

he sat up immediately and moved backward warily. he looked at an lan before looking at himself... it looked as if nothing had happened. it seemed that an lan had not touched him.

“miss an, why am i here?”

an lan gazed at gu jingze. “we found you injured at the bottom of the cliff, so we brought you back. you’re injured. quick, lie down...”

an lan looked into gu jingze’s beautiful eyes.

she had just been looking at the sleeping man. he was so exquisite, just like a beautiful sculpture. she even wanted to reach out and touch him. unfortunately, whether it was because he was too vigilant or whether it was a coincidence, the moment she reached out, he immediately opened his eyes.

it was such a coincidence.

after finding out that something had happened to gu jingze that day, she wondered to herself why something untoward had happened to such a good man.

she also dispatched people to search for him. but she did not expect to find him in a bush.

because the bloodhound that had been brought there followed the smell of blood to the bush, so they managed to find the injured gu jingze in no time.

as a result, she quickly brought him back. she hid this fact from everyone and brought him back to her own residence.

gu jingze looked down at himself. the wound on his abdomen had probably been disinfected already. due to the excessive blood loss, he felt slightly unwell. he looked at her. “thank you very much for your help, miss an.”

he tried to get down the bed but an lan hastily said, “you can’t. you’ve lost too much blood. you need to rest. don’t move. if you need anything, i can get it for you.”

“no. it’s just that there are many things to handle at home. i still have to rush back...”

an lan’s face took on a slightly hurt expression. “are you going to back just like that...”

gu jingze looked at her. “why not?”

an lan narrowed her eyes and bit her lip. “i definitely won’t let you leave.”

gu jingze said, “i still have a wife and children at home. i’m worried about them.”

“even so, i don’t care. since you’re here, you must rest. this is my place. i saved you, so you owe me a life. even if you insist on leaving, you have to see if my people here let you leave.”

gu jingze looked up.

there were people everywhere outside. security was very tight.

gu jingze asked, “so, you’re insisting on making me stay right now?”

“i’m not trying to do anything else either. i just want you to rest, alright? look, you can’t even walk right now.”

he moved slightly. indeed, his footsteps were extremely heavy.

it seemed that... this was the result of some drugs that had been injected into him.

he glanced at her.

she had given him a special drug that had caused this.

because he himself had used many drugs, he had immunity against most drugs. since the drug was having such a significant effect now, it was probably not an ordinary drug.
