Lu Chuxia was probably used to being rejected. She clapped her hands and said, "Whatever. You can sit anywhere."
There weren't many people sitting there. The man looked at Lin Che and said awkwardly, "Mrs. Gu, this is the first time I've seen you. I didn't expect you to be so beautiful. I hope President Gu can bring your beautiful wife out more often in the future."
Lin Che blushed and said, "Thank you for your compliment. You're too kind."
"How could that be? President Gu is really hard to invite. I hope that Mrs. Gu can come to our gatherings more often in the future. This way, President Gu can come out more often."
Gu Jingze said, "I'm just a boring person. You guys have nothing to say here."
"How could that be? President Gu is here and there are so many beautiful women looking at him. President Gu can just sit here and not talk."
Gu Jingze smiled and said, "Mr. Stephen, you flatter me."
Stephen then started to speak in English. It seemed like they were talking about something serious. Lin Che couldn't understand and just looked at them blankly.
She didn't feel bored. She just looked at them and felt that their English was like watching an American drama. It was so smooth and natural.
Her husband was really handsome when he spoke in English. His elegant thin lips spit out those tactful words. It didn't feel wrong at all.
She just stood there and watched. Lu Chuxia, who was sitting opposite her, kept looking at Lin Che.
Lin Che sat next to Gu Jingze and looked very obedient. She looked at Gu Jingze from time to time with eyes full of admiration. Lu Chuxia snorted in her heart. What a commoner. How could he think so highly of himself?
How could Gu Jingze like such a lowly person? He would get tired of this kind of ignorant woman sooner or later!
At this moment, the food was served. Lin Che naturally wouldn't drink in public. She didn't want to scare people to death when she was drunk. So, she drank her bubbly beverage obediently. Then, she heard Lu Chuxia say, "Don't you feel bored listening to men talk about business? It's so boring."
Lin Che said, "No, it's just an eye-opener for me," she said straightforwardly.
Lu Chuxia despised her even more in her heart. She didn't expect her to say it so shamelessly. "Is that so? What's there to learn? It's all about the international situation and the ocean region."
Lin Che smiled. She couldn't be bothered to explain that she didn't understand any of this. However, she felt that she could see Gu Jingze's charm just by watching him talk and work, so she didn't feel bored.
She also knew that Lu Chuxia was looking down on her for not knowing anything.
Lin Che knew that he really didn't know anything, and there was nothing to hide.
"It's fine as long as there's one person in the family who knows. Why should I know so much? Anyway, I have Gu Jingze, the head of the family, to make money to support me. If both of us in the family are so smart, how can others live?" Lin Che said.
Lu Chuxia sneered, as if she didn't agree.
Gu Jingze heard her, but he turned his head and reached out to touch her head. "That's right. You don't need to know anything."
"En, as long as you don't despise me, right?"
"Why would I despise you? Work is boring enough. Wouldn't it be even more boring to listen to you talk about work at home? I like it because you don't understand."
Lin Che's heart warmed when she heard that.
Although she knew that Gu Jingze said that in front of Lu Chuxia to give her face, she still felt warm.
She just felt happy that he was standing on her side and speaking for her.
Lu Chuxia pursed her lips slightly when she heard that. She was so angry that she wanted to glare at him.
However, she looked at the drink in front of Lin Che and held it in.
Anyway, this eyesore would be a jerk soon. She just needed to hold it in for a while.
The group continued to drink and talk. At that moment, Lin Che suddenly felt very uncomfortable in her stomach.
It was like the pain she usually felt during her period. Now, there was a strange pain.
However, she looked at Gu Jingze and the others and endured it without making a sound.
She only hoped that it was temporary and would get better soon.
However, not long after, the pain in her stomach became more intense. It didn't feel better at all. Instead, it hurt more and more.
The feeling of weakness came along with the pain, and Lin Che's face became even paler, like a piece of white paper.
However, looking at the people in front of her, she still endured it. She didn't want to disturb Gu Jingze at all.
However, Gu Jingze felt that something was wrong.
The little woman next to him was too quiet. It was a little strange. It didn't match Lin Che's personality.
Gu Jingze turned his head to look. Lin Che was sitting there in a daze. He didn't make a sound and lowered his head. Something was wrong.
Gu Jingze quickly touched Lin Che. "What's wrong?"
Lin Che looked up in a daze.
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che's pale face and his expression suddenly changed.
Beside him, Lu Chuxia had already noticed Lin Che's discomfort.
However, this was all expected. However, she kept wondering why Lin Che hadn't left yet. Why hadn't he acted up yet? Why was he still holding it in?
At that moment, Gu Jingze saw it.
Lu Chuxia looked at Gu Jingze's expression and snorted coldly.
Gu Jingze grabbed Lin Che's hand.
He felt that his palm was sweaty.
He asked directly, "Lin Che, what's wrong?"
Lin Che hurriedly raised his head and shook it. He wanted to say that he was fine, but with his current appearance, it was as if even speaking would take a lot of effort. He could only say, "My stomach just hurts a little. How about you guys continue talking here, I'll head back first."
Gu Jingze's eyes were gloomy and his cold expression was especially obvious.
He held her hand. "I'll bring you back with me."
Lin Che didn't want to delay him, so he said that he would go back and rest. "I'm fine. I might have eaten something bad. I'll go back."
However, Gu Jingze had already grabbed her hand indifferently. He didn't listen to her and held Lin Che's hand.
Lu Chuxia was stunned.
Stephen said in surprise, "President Gu, what's wrong?"
Gu Jingze said directly, "I'm sorry. My wife isn't feeling well. I have to bring her back to see a doctor."
Stephen was a little stunned, but he looked at Lin Che with an uncomfortable expression.
Lu Chuxia immediately stood up and looked at Gu Jingze. "Jingze, Mr. Stephen, it's rare for us to have a gathering. I'll get someone to send Lin Che back. You should stay."
When Lin Che heard that, she also looked up at Gu Jingze.
Although she was very unhappy about leaving Gu Jingze and Lu Chuxia here, she really didn't want to delay Gu Jingze.
