So this was how he planned his strategies. No wonder he had been so quiet the whole day.
Lin Che could not help the wave of admiration she felt. This was precisely what a businessman was. He did everything so secretly but in the end, it turned out that he was actually the mastermind.
Gu Jingyu looked at Lin Che. “My Second Brother voluntarily went to such lengths for you… he even specially approached me. Lin Che, I think that you’re very fortunate.”
“Fortunate?”
“Yes. You don’t need to compare yourself to Mo Huiling at all. She can’t compare to you because my Second Brother is on your side. He cares about you so much and does everything for you. It already shows how important you are to him. So how can Mo Huiling beat that? You don’t have to worry at all…”
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze from afar.
He was still talking to Gu Jingming. As if he had sensed her gaze, he turned around and looked into Lin Che’s eyes. Then, the corners of his lips turned up slightly.
Lin Che said, “Eh. I’m just fortunate…”
“Nonsense.” Gu Jingyu continued, “Do you think that being fortunate is a bad thing? A person is only fortunate because she has accumulated lots of good luck. You only accumulated so much good luck because you’re a very good person. Not everyone is as lucky as you are because not everyone is ready to receive good fortune. Do you understand?”
Lin Che smiled at Gu Jingyu and nodded vigorously. “I understand, Senior Jingyu.”
She was already very content that everyone treated her so well.
Lin Che smiled at Gu Jingyu. Seeing that Gu Jingze and Gu Jingming were done talking, she bounced her way over.
Gu Jingze walked towards Lin Che with steady steps. Lin Che smiled and walked towards him with a spring in her step. Then, she said, “Gu Jingze.”
“Why?”
She looked up at him. He looked down at her through squinted eyes. He seemed to be a little tipsy.
Lin Che simply looked at him quietly and hooked her arm around his. She felt that she had already thanked him so much that there was no point in doing it again. With her arm around his, she smiled and walked out. While walking, she thought to herself that Gu Jingze was really impressive. It seemed that he already had everything in the palm of his hand. And the crucial thing was that he had obtained all of this so soundlessly.
Lin Che wondered what else exactly Gu Jingze had done to protect her silently unbeknownst to her.
Gu Lanshan watched Gu Jingze and Lin Che walk out together and even smiled at Gu Jingze in greeting.
“Jingze, are you about to leave?”
“Yes. Otherwise, are we going to wait here to see Aunt continue playing different roles and putting up a show?”
“…” Gu Lanshan was taken aback by his words.
Gu Lanshan’s face tightened. “Jingze, is this how you speak to your elders?”
“That’s right. To me, an elder is a person who protects the younger generation. Otherwise, she doesn’t deserve to be called an elder, so… I don’t think I’m wrong in speaking to you like this. After all, in terms of mentality, you’re even more immature and insensible than your juniors.”
“You… you…”
Gu Lanshan trembled as she pointed at Gu Jingze.
Ignoring Gu Lanshan, Gu Jingze pulled Lin Che along and walked out immediately.

After bidding Lin Che goodbye, Yu Minmin headed out together with Gu Jingming.
There were still many guests outside. Yu Minmin stayed beside Gu Jingming obediently and did not speak a word. Even when people constantly stared at her as she walked past, Yu Minmin remained silent and headed out directly.
It was only when she got into the car that those persistent gazes disappeared.
Only then did Yu Minmin heave a sigh of relief and say to Gu Jingming, “Were the people here today all relatives?”
