Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Hey, did you know about it?” Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze in surprise.

Gu Jingze said, “I made someone draft this speech. What do you think?”

“...” Lin Che said, “Gu Jingze, you’re handling this too?”

“What else do you think I’m handling daily?”

“Okay. Of course, I don’t understand the work of powerful people like you. I only need to worry about what I’m going to have for tomorrow’s breakfast and such. But thinking about how I actually have such a capable man by my side, I still feel very proud. Hehe.”

Gu Jingze looked at her infatuated expression, “Then, you now know that your man is very capable?”

“Yes yes, you can determine so many people’s fates just by raising your hand. Oh my, I feel so mighty just thinking about it.”

“I’ve always been very capable. It’s not like you don’t know,” he laughed and held her hand tighter.

Lin Che froze and immediately understood that the ‘capability’ she was talking about meant something else.

Ah, this guy. His words were so easily suggestive nowadays.

Lin Che scrolled through the news and said, “I didn’t expect such a strict person like Big Brother to visit the hotel with his fiancée. But it makes sense too. Big Brother is also a man. He may appear very strict, but he’s actually just another gangster.”

Gu Jingze chuckled and asked, “Do you really think that everything written in the papers is true?”

“What do you mean?” Lin Che looked up at Gu Jingze with a surprised expression.

Gu Jingze said, “The news is false.”

“What?”

“Big Brother came to discuss it with me yesterday. He accidentally touched a woman last year. In the end, it was a set-up and some people have been sending out pictures. They took the chance when I was injured this time. Everyone in the Gu family was busy taking care of my matters, so they moved into action again and released the photo once more.”

“Ah, someone is secretly tackling the Gu family?”

“Yes. Did you think that the Gu family isn’t afraid of anyone since we’re the most powerful family in C Nation? We don’t need to be afraid of anyone in C Nation, but this time, a special envoy from M Nation came to see me but was met with an accident. I’m afraid that the culprit is an old enemy of ours.”

“The Gu family’s old enemy is...”

“The Gu family’s old enemy is the Lin family. Their eldest son, Lin Yuyang, developed many terrifying strategies to tackle us. His movement and methods are different from ours. He doesn’t participate in politics, but he controls the pulse of H Nation. He is ruthless and you saw their ways this time. They are very direct. Thus, we are very worried that they will do something bad to us. We can only use this method to stop their mouths.”

Lin Che said, “So complicated...”

“Of course. That is why you’re definitely not suited to play politics with a brain like yours.”

“I thought that you guys were already capable enough in C Nation.”

“Silly girl. So you really didn’t know who I was at that time and simply used the drug on me?” Gu Jingze asked and looked at her.

Lin Che said, “Of course. If I knew you were such a tyrannical mad man, I wouldn’t have dared to touch you. In the past, I used to think that Qin Qing’s family was already very capable. My father’s side was also already very capable. I didn’t really read the political news and didn’t care about economic news. For tabloids, I also only looked at Gu Jingyu...”

“C Nation has a few powerful families. Now that you know, the Gu family has one hundred years of history in C Nation. There’s the Lu family who also helped bring down the family in Jiangshan that year after they became famous. And there’s also the Wan family who were the diplomatic flowers that year. You should have learned this before in your middle school textbooks. However, it was not clearly stated how powerful the Wan family was. In comparison, that Qin Qing’s family is nothing,” he added the last sentence scornfully at the mention of Qin Qing.

Lin Che glared at him and secretly thought, This petty guy. He was still talking about Qin Qing now.

“So, that person who is tackling you guys now... Will you guys... be in danger?”

“It’s no problem. It’s not that dangerous. We just need to be a little more cautious than usual,” Gu Jingze already used to it. He also didn’t want to disclose too much to Lin Che so that it didn’t frighten her.

But looking at Lin Che, he thought that no matter how dangerous it was and whatever danger he was in, he didn’t want Lin Che to be implicated.

He couldn’t imagine what would happen if Lin Che somehow ended up in the dangerous position he was in.

He thought that it would be better to be more cautious over Lin Che’s safety in the future.

Lin Che looked at the news and asked, “Who exactly is that person? Big Brother even said that she had no background. Is she a commoner?”

“Well, you will know in the future. It’s not certain whether this will be exposed in the future or not. Don’t think too much about it for now.”

Lin Che agreed. She should just care about herself. She definitely would not be able to participate in their complicated matters.

Gu Jingze was almost completely healed. It was just in time for the Lu family’s invitation. They invited the Gu family to the Lu family’s horse ranch.

Although Gu Jingze had wounds on his body, he still agreed. After all, this was the first gathering of the two families after the wedding. It wouldn’t be nice to not go.

Lin Che was also dragged along by Gu Jingze to select her riding suit.

Lin Che never rode a horse. Looking at the riding suit now, she felt that it was really interesting.

“These clothes look so pretty,” she remarked. “They feel exquisite.”

“You pick one and then I’ll pick one,” Gu Jingze said. “You’ll only be able to tell if it looks good when you put it on. What are you staring at?”

“I’m just curious because I’ve never seen all this before. Hey, I think this looks pretty nice,” she picked a green outfit.

Looking at another riding suit of the same color, it was black with green edges. It matched with the outfit she picked. Lin Che immediately suggested, “Gu Jingze, why don’t you wear this?”

Gu Jingze took one look and said disdainfully, “No, I want the grey one.”

Lin Che said, “Don’t be like this. I’ll wear green and you should wear the green one too. It’ll be like wearing couple clothes.”

“No. I don’t like such bright colors.”

“Don’t be like this, Gu Jingze. I never wore couple clothes with anyone before and I want to try it just this once. I think it’ll definitely look great.”

Never wore couple clothes with anyone before?

It made sense. Besides carrying a torch for that gigolo, she never dated anyone else.

Thinking about this, his expression seemed to relax a little.

Lin Che tugged at his arm, “Hubby, Hubby, you see? Others already wore this kind of thing before. I’m so old and have never done that. I’m losing out. Wear it with me. Please wear it with me...”

Gu Jingze couldn’t stand that puppy-like expression of Lin Che the most.

She looked pitifully at him like a little puppy that was just abandoned at the side of the road. Her eyes and mouth exuded desire and she kept calling him ‘Hubby’. Finally, Gu Jingze could only sigh as he looked at that green outfit with a darkened face.
