Hearing Gu Jingze's name, Lin Che, who had been engrossed in eating, almost spat out the food in his mouth.
The person beside him was startled. Seeing Lin Che gasping for air, he quickly said, "What's wrong, Lin Che? You didn't choke, did you?"
The water was quickly handed to Lin Che. He took it and took a big gulp.
Slowly, he calmed down.
What was Gu Jingze doing here?
Lin Che looked up. Seeing that they were still looking at him, he quickly said, "It's okay, it's okay. I grabbed it by accident."
Only Yang Lingxin's expression changed as she looked at Lin Che.
As expected, Gu Jingze had already entered the room.
She could tell that he was eating with someone. But he probably wouldn't come to this kind of place to eat. No, he probably wouldn't come out to eat with anyone.
Didn't he never attend gatherings or social gatherings?
Then why did he suddenly come here today?
Just then, the people at the table began to discuss.
"That must be Gu Jingze."
"Look at how imposing he is."
"But I heard that he has 12 top-notch bodyguards. Why aren't they with him today?"
"Looks like we're in luck today. It's our first gathering and we actually bumped into Gu Jingze."
Just then, Gu Jingze, who was walking up the stairs step by step, shot a glance at her.
It landed squarely on Lin Che's body.
Lin Che almost tripped. She quickly held onto the table and winked at him.
Why was he here? Why didn't he tell her in advance?
She still hadn't recovered from the shock.
She felt dizzy when she looked at him.
"Hey, why does it look like Gu Jingze is looking over here?"
"He's definitely not looking at us."
"Yeah, he's looking at Lin Che."
"Of course, Lin Che is so pretty."
He really was looking at her …
Lin Che thought to herself and blushed. "Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. What's so good about him? Just eat."
The people at the table all said, "How is he not good looking? He's the richest man in Country C. It's rare to see him."
"That's right. You already have Situ Qiong, so you don't care. We haven't seen what a rich man looks like."
"…" There was no way to continue this conversation.
Forget it, if they want to look, then let them look. She couldn't do anything about it.
Fortunately, Gu Jingze and the others soon disappeared.
Seeing that Gu Jingze had left, although everyone still hadn't recovered from the surprise just now, they were still chatting, but their voices gradually became softer.
Just as Lin Che heaved a sigh of relief, he heard his phone ring.
She suddenly had a bad feeling and picked up her phone to take a look …
As expected, it was from Gu Jingze.
It simply said, "Eat properly and don't let your imagination run wild."
Lin Che gloomily replied, "Who told you to come? You didn't even tell me!"
Not long after he sent the message, his phone rang again.
This time, it was a phone call.
Looking at the name on the screen, Lin Che hurriedly smiled at everyone. "It's a call from the company. You guys eat first, I'll answer it."
After saying that, he ran to the back and saw that there was no one around before he picked up the phone.
"Boss, what are you doing!"
"Now that you mentioned it, I just remembered that I forgot to tell you. I'm sorry, so I'll tell you right now."
"…"
He was definitely playing with her on purpose. What was the use of saying it now?
"You, you, you, who exactly is here?"
"Eat."
"Why are you here when you're eating?"
"Someone invited me to eat and I remembered that you were here too, so I came here."
Alright, the big CEO was really casual.
Lin Che said, "Forget it, you eat your food and I'll eat mine. Let's not disturb each other."
"Okay, eat properly and conserve your energy. Later …"
Later what?
Lin Che raised her guard, feeling that he was up to no good.
"Later, I'll wait for you upstairs."
What? "Why are you waiting for me upstairs!"
Gu Jingze said, "Room 1088."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Lin Che was stunned for a long time, unable to react.
When she understood what he meant, she was completely speechless.
Was he … going to get a room …
Was he crazy? He had a big house at home and came to a hotel instead …
But …
It seemed quite crazy and … quite exciting.
Lin Che blushed. She couldn't calm down at the thought of Gu Jingze eating upstairs.
When she returned to her seat, she was still beaming. The others said, "Lin Che, was that a company call just now? Why are you beaming?"
Lin Che said speechlessly, "How am I beaming? Go, go, go. Eat your food."
Everyone laughed and didn't ask about the celebrities' privacy. They knew that these celebrities had to face their own private affairs while enjoying the glory of the stage. Otherwise, a small matter like a contract termination could blow up and cause an uncontrollable ruckus.
Hence, celebrities were very careful when it came to their privacy.
As for the production crew, as staff members who knew a lot about the celebrities' privacy, they also had a tradition. That was, they would never reveal the celebrities' undisclosed privacy for no reason. Otherwise, it would be against the rules in the industry.
This could be considered an unspoken rule in the industry.
After a while, everyone drank a little more and spoke more freely.
The director looked at Lin Che and said, "Lin Che, your acting is really good. It's much better than Qin Wanwan's. Her temperament is similar to yours and she's pretty too, but her acting is far from yours."
Lin Che didn't say much and could only listen quietly.
The director said, "I wanted to cast you that day, but your company stopped me. Now, we're still fated to work together. It seems like this is fate. Although it's a little complicated, this role is destined to be yours."
Lin Che smiled. "I'm very honored too."
"No, no. Your love for this novel will definitely make you work harder in this television series. We are very confident in you."
"Thank you, everyone, for your trust in me."
As they chatted, it was already late.
Lin Che looked at the time, worried that Gu Jingze was waiting too long.
She took out her phone and secretly sent a text saying that she would be a little late.

Upstairs, Gu Jingze had already finished his meal and came upstairs to wait. He was reading a book and sitting there, looking at the night view below.
Not long after, he heard a knock on the door.
He smiled and walked over from the other side.
However, when he opened the door, his gaze turned cold.
The woman in front of him wasn't Lin Che.
Gu Jingze looked at Yang Lingxin.
"You?"
Yang Lingxin looked at Gu Jingze eagerly.
