"Oh, shes a distant relative and had been studying abroad."
"I see. She looks young."
"No, shes only a year younger than me," Gu Jingze replied.
"Ah really? I couldnt tell at all"
Gu Jingze did not care about these things. He only had an arm around her as they walked together. He said, "She was studying at Stanford University until she got her Ph.D. After that, she went to the University of Chicago and then to Harvard. In the time she went to these schools, she also worked for some companies. I think she even went abroad on missions as an American goodwill ambassador."
"Ah"
She sounded very impressive.
Gu Jingze frowned as he pondered for a while. He couldnt remember anything else. He said, "Theres probably more, but Im not too sure. I dont normally handle the affairs of females in the Gu family. Mom had always been in charge."
"Oh Do all house mistresses take care of these?"
"Thats right. The responsibilities are clear-cut so that future family leaders can take over with ease. For many years, we have our own internal and external roles. The internal affairs in this family were never messy despite some petty disputes. We absolutely do not allow outsiders to infiltrate and its also because of this strength that enables the Gu family to establish our status as a wealthy family with no black sheep."
Ancient wealthy families did not function without logic.
Lin Che thought about that Xue Mengqi and felt that she looked somewhat normal. It turned out that she was very accomplished with many achievements. It looked like there were no slackers in this family.
Gu Jingze thought that it was not good for Lin Che to go around too much. He could not leave her here alone.
Thus, he took Lin Che inside to Gu Xiandes recuperation place.
At least he could be around to watch over her himself. He need not feel worried this way.
He tugged Lin Che along as he walked in.
Lin Che gradually realized that there werent many women as they entered the house. The further she went in, the more clan relatives she saw.
The clan relatives definitely looked more surprised than she was. They did not expect Gu Jingze to bring Lin Che in here.
At this time, the women were all waiting outside, although nobody mentioned anything. It was an unspoken rule that women did not interfere in mens affairs.
But now, Lin Che came in with Gu Jingze so openly.
This was the Gu familys most private major event regarding Gu Xiandes health, the treatment now, and even about business if he passed on. These were all important matters. What was the meaning of bringing Lin Che into this?
However, nobody dared to say anything. They could only complain in their hearts, saying that Gu Jingze spoiled Lin Che too much.
After Lin Che was ushered in, she sat at one side to rest. Gu Jingze kissed her and told her to rest. Then, he went off to join the discussion.
Lin Che could hear the commotion outside. She knew that they were all talking about Gu Xiandes health condition, but she could not hear them clearly.
