1142 So Precious To Be Pregnan
Lin Che was just puzzled that these wealthy people seemed different in person from all those rumors about them.
Anyway, she believed what was in front of her eyes. She had no way to prove that those rumors were true, so she had to trust her gut feelings.
In any case, she did feel that although Li Mingyu would intentionally pick on people, he was rather nice to her.
Gu Jingze said, “It’s going to be the Mid-Autumn Festival soon and the family left Xue Mengqi to organize the banquet. We’ll attend it together.”
“Hmm. Do I have to worry about her putting anything in my food?” Lin Che asked.
Gu Jingze’s gaze hardened and was cold as ice. “Only if she doesn’t want to be alive.”
“Okay You’re right. If anything bad happens, especially in a Gu family party that she organized, the one in trouble would be her.”
Xue Mengqi took a short time to complete preparations for the banquet.
In that short duration, she was well-prepared.
The attendees were all amazed. “Mengqi is really capable. She had such a short time limit and she could do such a good job.”
“Well, that’s because she’s talented. Nothing can stop her.”
“She’s not like those wild chickens outside. She is a phoenix who shines, no matter what.”
At the entrance, Xue Ningshan heard everyone praise Xue Mengqi and quickly thanked them, “It’s all thanks to everyone. Thanks to everyone’s help.”
“No, no. To have such a daughter, we’re really envious too.”
Xue Ningshan looked at Xue Mengqi, laughed, and said, “It’s a pity that our family can’t. If she stays with us, we’re only holding her back.”
This meant that their family could not let Xue Mengqi be like Lin Che, who could use her well-known name to compete. Even if she didn’t have the abilities, she could still take part and join the competition.
But Xue Mengqi had to depend on her own abilities.
Some said sneakily, “Rumor has it that Lin Che is angry with Gu Jingze. Haha. I just knew it. This kind of pampering love could not last long. Sooner or later, one will get sick of it.”
“Well, she will get old one day and turn ugly. Now that she’s pregnant, having a huge belly makes her look scary. Jingze is bound to get sick of looking at her daily. A man needs to live his life. While other girls are young and slender, the one beside him is big-bellied and bearing a second child. Won’t he have a change of heart?”
This rumor that Gu Jingze and Lin Che were not on good terms recently, already spread through every corner of the entire Gu family.
Even Mu Wanqing caught wind of this and began to have her doubts.
Did they really fight?
They did have little tiffs through the years, but they were never really angry for this long.
But winds don’t come from nowhere. If there really was nothing, how could the rumor spread this wide?
Gu Jingze was the head of the family and there were so many important things recently. Thus, any slight movement at Gu Jingze’s side would immediately alert the eyes of many.
At this moment, Xue Mengqi also started getting ready.
“Get ready for the show today.”
“Understood.”
Just then, Gu Jingze’s car stopped at the entrance.
Everyone immediately turned their focus to over there.
The car door opened. The bodyguard walked over and held the door open.
Gu Jingze stepped out of the car.
He wore a long-sleeved trench coat and looked very ethereal. His expression was completely casual and made everyone amazed. He looked different from his usual day at work. The Gu Jingze today looked full of life.
It was just a family gathering and this get-up was not a big deal.
However, everyone saw that Gu Jingze did not walk straight to the banquet. Instead, he walked around to the other side of the car.
