Lu Beichen was very familiar with the place. It seemed like he came here often.
"I want the private room inside," he said and pointed to the innermost one.
The private room was Japanese-style. After entering, he sat down cross-legged and unceremoniously ordered the dishes.
Gu Jingze didn't seem to mind and ordered whatever he wanted.
When the food was served, everyone ate together.
Gu Jingyan said, "I had a great time today. Sister-in-law, do you want to come out again?"
"Yeah, it's okay to come out with Lin Che. But Lin Che, don't bring your husband." Lu Beichen snorted. He still couldn't get over what had happened.
Gu Jingze said, "You lost the bet. What else do you have to say?"
"That's your dirty trick."
"This is to teach you a lesson. There are many open and hidden attacks in the business world. If you can't even handle my little trick, how are you going to support Jingyan in the future?"
"Heh, alright, I'm not as experienced as you. After all, you've been in the business world for so many years and you've never lost." Speaking of which, Lu Beichen pitied his enemies. With this guy around, they had suffered so many losses.
Luckily, the Lu Family had always been on the same side as the Gu Family.
Lu Beichen thought to himself that he couldn't stand on the opposite side of Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingyan said, "Alright, Second Brother always tricked us when we were young. You're not used to it yet. You'll be fine when you get used to it."
Gu Jingyan looked at Lin Che and said, "You don't know this. When we were young, we hired a home tutor. In the end, Second Brother urged the four of us to go out and play. He made Gu Jingyu pretend to have a stomachache to lure the home tutor out. Then, the rest of us sneaked out and Father found out. When we came back, only Second Brother was sitting there reading a book. It turns out that before he ran out, he had already bribed the security guard at the entrance to tell him when Father came back. He didn't tell us because he was worried that no one would reprimand Father would investigate and expose him as the mastermind. In the end, the three of us were punished and he escaped. Sigh …"
Lin Che said, "Wow, you're so evil …"
Gu Jingze was still eating calmly. "There's nothing too deceitful in war."
"…"
Gu Jingyan still wanted to say something but her hand was burned.
"Ouch …" She threw the cup away and took a step back subconsciously.
Lu Beichen hurriedly threw down his chopsticks and said, "What's wrong with you … Ouch, I say, Gu Jingyan, you're an adult and you can still get scalded. Let me see where you're scalded."
Lu Beichen hurriedly looked at her hand. Seeing that it was red, he lowered his head and blew at it. As he did so, he said, "Look at you. I told you that you never knew how to be mindful and multitask. Look at you now."
"I scalded you and you're still scolding me. Do you have any compassion?"
"What's the use of loving you?"
"You're so annoying. Let go. I don't need you to look."
"Hey, I still want to see it. Give me your hand. Let me see. You're rebelling."
"Get lost, I don't need you to look."
"I still want to see it. Let me see it!"
At this moment, the waiter also came in.
Seeing the two of them arguing, he didn't dare to say anything.
He could only wait until the two of them were done arguing before saying, "Mr. Lu, Madam, we have medicine here. We're really sorry. We were careless and scalded you. Today's dishes will be 50% free of charge."
Hearing this, Lu Beichen raised his head and said, "It's your fault that I was scalded, but you don't have to pay for it. President Gu is treating today. Hehe, not only will you have to pay for it, but you can also get some tips."
"…" The waiter really liked these rich people.
If it were someone else, he would have rebelled and asked for free.
But they didn't want free food and said that.
Rich people were indeed rich people.
Seeing the two of them like this, Lin Che felt that Lu Beichen was actually concerned about Gu Jingyan. But these two were really enemies.
They didn't give in to each other. There was no other way.
This meal was indeed expensive. The four of them went home. Gu Jingze called someone to pick them up and let them go first.
Lin Che was about to go back when he received a call from Yu Minmin. He said that there would be a celebrity charity dinner in a few days and he hoped that she would attend it.
Lin Che said that she would do as she saw fit.

After this trip, Lin Che had indeed thrown all his troubles to the back of his mind. The next day, he met up with Yu Minmin to discuss their future plans.
After the studio was set up, they were going to look for some celebrities who were worth grooming. They wanted to work together with Lin Che. After all, the profits would be limited. Yu Minmin asked for Lin Che's opinion. Lin Che said, "If it can make money, of course it's okay."
Yu Minmin said, "Because some celebrities only want to be themselves. That way, they won't have to share their resources with others."
Lin Che said, "I've always felt that when it comes to resources, we shouldn't fight with each other. Instead, we should work together to fight for resources from the outside. If I'm the only celebrity, our style is fixed and our resources are fixed, we won't be able to expand further. But if there are other celebrities, it'll be different. There will be all sorts of resources and we can expand together, right?"
Yu Minmin looked at Lin Che. "Not bad. You've indeed improved after following Gu Jingze."
"That's because I'm a smart person. I don't usually exert myself because I want to give others a way out. Otherwise, if I'm too smart, how can others live?"
"Alright, alright. You're too full of yourself. But the witchcraft notes will probably be filmed in some dangerous places. You have to be careful. Life will be tough."
"Forget it, I understand. Filming has always been a tough job. I don't mind if it's a little tough. That's how it is anyway."
"Aye." Yu Minmin patted Lin Che's shoulder. "Say, Lingdong must be regretting it to death. They didn't want an obedient, sensible, and unafraid artist like you, yet they insisted on an artist like Qin Wanwan who's so troublesome."
"Forget it. I'll use my actions to tell them that I'll have a better life without them."
"That's right." Yu Minmin said, "Let's work hard together."

The charity gala was organized by a famous fashion magazine, Micro Force.
This fashion magazine had always been worshipped by many fashionistas. They always felt that their fashion magazine was the best magazine to measure the current trend of fashion.
Hence, many celebrities had participated in their magazine's print shoots.
Some big names were proud of being on the magazine's cover. It was as if being chosen meant that they had become a fashionista and could lead the trend. It was as if their taste had been recognized.
However, Lin Che had never been chosen to be on the cover.
Perhaps it was because Lin Che didn't really follow the fashion route, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
When Yu Minmin showed Lin Che the schedule, she told him in advance, "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. A few days ago, Qin Wanwan was on the cover."
