As she spoke, she looked up and tried to recall.
"I remember that Su Cen was the prettiest girl in our school. Many guys wanted to date her, but she was cold and didn't like to get close to people, so she didn't date anyone in those few years. Professor Lu, on the other hand, is the most gentlemanly professor in our school. He's the youngest professor, and I heard that his net worth is over a hundred million. He's a tycoon, so many girls really like him. Even if they aren't his students, they would still go to his classes. He's funny and humorous in class, and he leaves immediately after class. He doesn't give people a chance to talk.
However, he was only nice to Su Cen. We didn't realize it at first, but later, we found out that Professor Lu always talked to her in class and asked her to answer his questions. Later, the school wanted to apply for a place to study abroad, so he asked Su Cen out of our dorm. We were all very envious of her. But after that, she studied with Professor Lu alone. It was fine if it wasn't for a short period of time. Everyone knew that Su Cen was good at her studies, so it was natural for the teacher to treat her well. But as time went by, there were more and more rumors. Everyone said that Su Cen had slept with Professor Lu.
"Some people said they saw Professor Lu and Su Cen chatting on the boulevard. Some people said they saw them eating together. Some people even said that after school, Su Cen didn't go back to the dorm. She left with Professor Lu and got into his car. Then, the rumors got worse. People said that they got together. They said that Su Cen … traded her body for a chance to go abroad. Then, Professor Lu suddenly married a rich businessman's daughter. Su Cen never went to class with him alone again. Then, these rumors gradually died down."
Lin Che thought that this was similar to what Professor Lu had said. However, he heard more malicious things from the other person, as well as a lot of romance.
After she said some more, Gu Jingze asked someone to send her out.
"It seems that they really were together. I think it's really romantic. A teacher-student relationship … But that's not now. If it were now, no one would say anything."
"Maybe."
"Also," she looked up at Gu Jingze. "Thank you for helping me find the answer."
"Thank you so much. Don't think too much. Let's go wash up and go to bed."
"Yes, yes. I'm going to wash up and sleep. There's still a fierce battle tomorrow. I need to rest well."
Gu Jingze hugged her and said, "Alright then. Let's rest more today."
"Hey, no, let go of me. I need to rest. What are you doing …"
"Alright, you rest. I'm the only one who can move it today."
"…"

The next day.
On the horse farm on the island.
Under the pergola, there were many ladies who had changed into riding attire. They looked valiant and formidable, and their heroic spirit did not lose to any of the men.
Lin Li had already changed into her riding outfit. She felt lucky that she was the mayor's daughter, so she had learned all the things that a rich young lady should have learned since she was young.
Therefore, even if he were to stand here, he would not be afraid at all.
Han Caiying saw those rich ladies and bosses sitting on the seats and watching, so she hurried over to help Lin Li tidy up her clothes. "Behave well. Even if you fall, you have to look good. Look, those bosses are all watching you. Oh, I saw one of them looking at you."
Lin Li narrowed her eyes and looked forward. She also raised her head and stuck out her chest, smiling at those bosses.
Just then, Lu Chuxia arrived. Cheers could be heard from the stage.
Some rich heirs had specially come to watch Lu Chuxia ride her horse.
Their enthusiasm for Lu Chuxia made others jealous.
Han Caiying harrumphed. When she saw Lu Chuxia come out, she rode her horse and drew a beautiful arc on the field. Then, she pulled on the reins and stopped.
That was quite a pretty sight to behold.
Han Caiying said, "Really, isn't she just the daughter of the Lu family? What's there to be proud of? If it weren't for her good looks, she wouldn't be as good looking as you. Lin Li, you should compare yourself to her today. Look at how those rich heirs worship her. If one of them falls for you, then our family's fortunes will change."
Lin Li pouted. "She's the number one socialite. How can we compare?"
Lin Li thought that Lu Chuxia was indeed a real socialite. She looked so elegant.
After a while, Lin Che finally arrived.
Lin Che came out from the back. He didn't look as imposing as Lu Chuxia. He just stood there calmly. He wore a red riding outfit and appeared beside Gu Jingze in front of the crowd. He looked very low-key, but with Gu Jingze there, how could he not attract attention?
The people around them were already sighing in excitement. Gu Jingze was also wearing a riding outfit today. He looked so cool that it made people want to scream. He was so handsome.
Lin Che didn't care about those fangirls. He just looked at Lu Chuxia who was in front of him.
She looked at Lin Che with a look of disdain. It was as if she was secretly provoking him. Lin Che was also excited.
Today, no matter what, he had to give it his all.
"The riding competition is about to begin. It's not just a competition of speed, but also accuracy. You can see the forest in front of you. The one who can pass through the forest safely and get the hat accurately without falling off the horse will be the winner. The one who gets the most hats will get the most points. As you all know, the final points will determine our final honor. That is, we will be the number one socialite in this WW banquet. Ladies, ladies, let's go."
Lin Che got on the horse and turned around to look at Gu Jingze. He was squinting. His face was always expressionless, which made people feel at ease.

A whistle sounded. The competition finally began.
Lin Che dashed into the forest.
Lu Chuxia gave Lin Li a look.
Lin Li saw the look. Although she wanted to walk around to attract the attention of the audience, she still chased after Lin Che.
Lin Che didn't know how to ride a horse well. After some practice, he could barely ride on the road. Luckily, there were bodyguards around to ensure that these socialites would be safe.
Otherwise, if one of them got into trouble, no one would be able to bear the responsibility. After all, each of the socialites here was the backbone of a powerful family in Country C.
Although Lin Che wasn't good at riding a horse, he looked good on it.
The little brother on the grandstand watched as she walked back and forth without finding her direction. She looked silly and very cute. He couldn't help but laugh, especially when she was wearing a red mixed with black riding outfit. She looked so beautiful. Beauties were beautiful no matter what they did. Even silly things were so interesting.
