Chapter 853 - All These People Would Be Her Personal Guards

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The trailer that Lin Che had initially seen did not end up being the version that was released.

When the trailer was released the next day, there was a lot of discussion about it online. Only then did Lin Che realize that the trailer had unexpectedly been edited to that extent...

Peng Yu had gotten one-third more screen time than she had. It seemed as if she had turned into the second female lead instead of the first.

People online were also skeptical. Lin Che’s fans were extremely upset and wanted to know what exactly was going on. Was Peng Yu the female lead or was Lin Che the female lead? Why did the trailer mainly feature Peng Yu?

After watching the trailer, Yu Minmin rushed to Lin Che’s set immediately.

While sitting in the room, Yu Minmin said, “They agreed to everything you said in the beginning. Now that you’ve filmed a part of it, do they think you won’t leave? How could they bully us like this? They’re treating you like a newbie. Do they think that we’re so easy to bully and that you will tolerate this and continue filming?”

Yu Minmin immediately went to look for the director.

The director seemed to have been expecting Yu Minmin. He looked at her and said, “Minmin, you’re here. I was just about to explain to you.”

Yu Minmin smiled grimly at the director, looking as if she was waiting for a reasonable explanation.

The director hastily explained it to her over and over again a few times. He kept flattering Lin Che, talking about how good she was and how she would not make things difficult for them, but that Peng Yu was different.

Yu Minmin would not fall for this. She looked at the director and said, “Director, I gave you a bargain back then by getting Lin Che to join your production. But to be honest, I respected you because we’ve known each other for a long time and we’re on pretty good terms. But now, you’ve turned on us and slapped our faces.”

“But... Minmin, I’ll be honest. Peng Yu made a huge fuss yesterday. I had no choice either. You may not know her identity...” The director had a troubled expression on his face. ,

“No, I know what you’re going to say.” Yu Minmin stopped him and said, “You mean to say that Gu Jingze is very powerful and you don’t dare to offend him. Because of that, you think that we’re easy to bully and you’re going to get us to shoulder the consequences, right?”

“I... I’m not...”

“That’s enough.” Yu Minmin huffed. “I won’t say anything more. Do you really think she’s so terrifying that you dare not offend her? In that case, this production really won’t be able to continue. If she asks for a mile instead of an inch in the future and tells you to just film according to her instructions, then who exactly is the director of this drama? Our Lin Che did not make a proper comeback only to be suppressed by other people. If you really think that you can’t afford to offend Peng Yu and you’re willing to sacrifice us, then we’ll leave.”

“Hey, hey. Don’t be like this.”

“You shouldn’t bully honest people like this. Also, a word of advice. Don’t believe everything you hear. Don’t regret it when Lin Che leaves. You can decide for yourself.”

The director had a conflicted expression too but Peng Yu was pressuring him immensely and he thought that Lin Che probably would not leave just like that. She had just made her comeback and this was her first television series. If she actually pulled out halfway, it would not be good for her reputation in the future too.

When Yu Minmin returned, she said, “It seems like he still thinks we’re easy to bully. I’m afraid he really doesn’t dare to offend Peng Yu. Ha. Although Yin Shangshu is a good director, the way he’s so easily swayed is truly loathsome as well.”

“If he continues doing this, we can’t stay on here and let ourselves be mistreated. We will find somewhere else to go if we can’t stay here. Anyway, gold will shine no matter where it is!”

“Precisely. Recently, there was actually an outdoor reality program that offered you a spot. It looks very promising. You’ll be the only girl in the cast and you’ll definitely receive a lot of attention. Why don’t we take up that offer first?”

“Alright. We’ll wait and see how they plan the program. Let’s see how Yin Shangshu deals with this matter first.”

“We can only resign ourselves to fate after meeting such a cowardly director but if he can’t give us a good explanation, this television series will be the explanation, hmph,” Yu Minmin said furiously.

Now, the company was no longer a random small company. So many of their talents were waiting for them to set an example.

Lin Che did not remain on set today. She left directly after informing the crew.

Online, people were still arguing over this matter. Some of them took it very seriously and went to Peng Yu’s page to curse her out. Peng Yu immediately began arguing with the netizens, saying that this was the director’s arrangement and had nothing to do with her.

Lin Che did not bother about these things. She left and saw that Gu Jingze was waiting for her at home. He said that he had chosen a few loyal guards to follow her and wanted her to meet them first.

When Lin Che heard this, she was still a little confused.

He had actually picked out some people for her. She felt that she had yet to register that fact!

Gu Jingze walked in with his arm around her. Inside, she saw a row of people standing upright. They appeared to be wearing the same uniform as they stood there in an orderly manner.

The moment Gu Jingze entered, they immediately bowed and said, “Sir, Madam.”

Gu Jingze said, “She will be your master in the future. All of you are only eighteen or nineteen years old and you have never had a master. She’s your first priority, your first target of protection. I believe that you’ve been taught in the base and in the troops and that you understand what that means. It means that you will only need to listen to her commands in the future. You will not need to listen to anyone else’s command.”

“Yes,” they said in unison.

Gu Jingze said, “So now, you don’t have to call me Sir and you don’t have to call her Madam. Just call her Miss Lin. She’s the center of your world and she determines whether you stay or leave and whether you live or die. Understand?”

“Yes, Miss.”

Lin Che looked at them and felt that all of them really looked very young.

Lin Che said, “Don’t worry. If you follow me, I won’t treat you unfairly. We are one and we stand together through the storms. I don’t want to lose anyone of you either. I hope that we will be each other’s companions and be mutually loyal to each other, without any divides.”

“Yes!”

As she looked at everyone, Lin Che felt very emotional as well. She actually felt a little uncomfortable at the thought that these people would listen only to her commands in the future.

Gu Jingze said, “I hope you still remember their leader.”

Confused, Lin Che asked, “Who is it?”

“Dongzi.” He pointed to a young and sturdy lad at the side.

When Lin Che took a closer look, she immediately remembered that he was that Dongzi, the boy that she had saved back then when Lin Che and Gu Jingze had ended up in A Nation.

She broke into a smile and said with a pleasant surprise, “Dongzi, I can’t believe you’re here too.”

Dongzi smiled sincerely. Then, he immediately recalled who he was and retracted his smile. With an expression of righteousness, he said, “Miss, I’m very honored to have been selected!”

Lin Che said, “You weren’t so well-built when Linda took you away. You look really different now.”

Dongzi said, “Miss, I’ve already trained at the military base for two years and in the army for two years. I’m a qualified soldier. I will protect you in the future. I won’t ever let you undergo the kind of hardship you went through in A Nation!”
