Perhaps it was because she had always been like this and had never avoided this hypocrisy, so it didn't seem that hypocritical.
Gu Jingze knew that her so-called hypocrisy was not hypocritical at all. He knew that she was pure at heart and candidly silly. She was not being superficially materialistic.
Thus, Gu Jingze didn't hate it. He even liked seeing her play around like that.
Gu Jingze said, "All these things don't matter."
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze, "If it really matters, you must tell me. I honestly don't know a lot about these things. I don't know what you guys can or cannot do."
Lin Che did blame herself sometimes too. She felt that she was Gu Jingze's wife but he was the one who was always helping her. She had not done anything to help him.
Instead, she kept causing trouble for him.
Because she didn't know how she could help Gu Jingze either. She had no family support, no power, and knew nothing about business. From the moment she entered theatre school, she aimed to be a qualified actor. She loved to watch Judy act in The Silent Lamb. Judy Foster won two Oscars and had always been her idol. Besides being a qualified actor, what she desired the most was to be an outstanding actor.
However, all these were completely different from Gu Jingze's life.
Lin Che tilted her head slightly and looked at Gu Jingze, "Sorry, Gu Jingze. I actually haven't helped you before and even caused trouble for you. But I really don't know much about these things. If you need me to do anything, you have to tell me."
She did not want to be the one dragging her legs.
Gu Jingze gazed at Lin Che's apologetic face and said,
"I don't need you to do anything, Lin Che. And I don't want you to be some prissy princess or live like a rich man's wife. This is my life and it is also yours. As long as you feel comfortable, that's all that matters. You don't have to change anything for me."
"But I don't want to cause trouble for you and I don't want to drag you down either," Lin Che said.
Gu Jingze smiled faintly, "A man must support and provide for a woman. Don't worry. Your troubles are not a big deal to me. Even if you mess up more, it's not going to trouble me that much. The Gu family worked hard over the years to be at the top. If I crumbled just like that, wouldn't that be a waste of effort? If I can't even support my woman, what's the meaning of having all this power and money?"
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze and was touched by his magnanimity and comforting words.
Gu Jingze helped up Lin Che's arm, "I'm not standing at the top to see my woman sacrifice for me. So you can do whatever you like. You don't need to care about what others think."
Lin Che was really at a loss for words.
Gu Jingze tugged Lin Che, "Let's go and see what you might like. We didn't come here to get nothing. We have to contribute a little to this charity gala."
Lin Che heard this and became interested. She tugged at Gu Jingze and said, "So whatever I want will be mine?"
"Of course. The purpose of bringing a female partner today is to buy her gifts."
"How nice. Heh heh. Then I'll get the more expensive one."
"Alright. It's only been a short while and you're already getting money-minded again."
"Of course. You have too much money to spend so I'm helping you with it."
"Fine fine fine. You can spend it."
Although she said that, Lin Che honestly didn't dare to ask for expensive things.
Seeing that the bracelet was considered cheap, she thought for a long time before finally deciding to bid for it. Meanwhile.
Mo Huiling heard Gu Jingze was starting to bid for items and she looked up at the upper deck.
There was a VIP room where you could see everything below but nobody could see from the outside.
