So this was how he strategized. No wonder he hadn't done anything today.
Lin Che couldn't help but admire him. This was what a businessman should be. He did everything quietly, and in the end, he was the one in charge.
Gu Jingyu looked at Lin Che. "My second brother is willing to put in so much effort for you … and he even went to look for me. Lin Che, I think you're very lucky."
"Lucky?"
"Yeah. You don't have to compare yourself with Mo Huiling. She can't compare to you because my second brother is on your side. He cares about you so much and does so much for you. This already shows how important you are to him. So, how can Mo Huiling compare to him? You don't have to worry at all …"
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze, who was in the distance.
He was still talking to Gu Jingming. As if he felt her gaze, he turned his head and met Lin Che's eyes. The corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Lin Che said, "Sigh, I'm just lucky …"
"Nonsense," Gu Jingyu said, "Do you think that being lucky has a negative connotation? A person is lucky because they have accumulated a lot of good fortune. You have accumulated so much good fortune because you are a good person. Not everyone is that lucky because not everyone is prepared to accept good fortune. Do you understand? "
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingyu with a smile and nodded his head forcefully. "I understand, Senior Jingyu."
Everyone was already very good to her and she was already very satisfied.
Lin Che smiled at Gu Jingyu. Seeing that Gu Jingze and Gu Jingming had finished talking, she skipped over.
Gu Jingze walked towards Lin Che with steady steps. Lin Che smiled and skipped over. "Gu Jingze."
"What's wrong?"
Lin Che looked up at him. He lowered his head and squinted his eyes as if he was slightly drunk.
Lin Che just looked at him quietly and held his hand. She felt that she had already said too many words of thanks and there was no need to say more. She just held his hand and walked out with a smile. As they walked, she thought that Gu Jingze was really amazing. It was as if everything was in his hands, and the most important thing was that he did it so quietly.
Lin Che wondered what other things Gu Jingze had done to silently protect her when she wasn't aware of it.
Gu Lanshan greeted Gu Jingze with a smile when she saw him coming out with Lin Che.
"Jingze, are you leaving?"
"That's right. If we don't leave, are we going to wait and see Aunt continue to play different roles here?"
"…" Gu Lanshan choked on his words.
Gu Lanshan's face darkened. "Jingze, is this how you talk to your elders?"
"That's right. I believe that an elder should be someone who loves and cares for the younger generation. Otherwise, she wouldn't be fit to be an elder. That's why … I don't think there's anything wrong with the way I speak to Auntie. After all, in Auntie's heart, she's even more childish and immature than a junior."
"You … you …"
Gu Lanshan pointed a trembling finger at Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze pulled Lin Che along, ignoring Gu Lanshan, and walked straight out.

Yu Minmin said goodbye to Lin Che and left with Gu Jingming.
There were still a lot of guests outside. Yu Minmin followed Gu Jingming obediently and didn't say a word. When they passed by, Yu Minmin didn't say a word even though people kept staring at him. He just walked out directly.
When they finally got into the car, the eyes that followed them like shadows finally disappeared.
Yu Minmin heaved a sigh of relief and said to Gu Jingming, "Are all the people who came today relatives?"
"Yes, most of them are," Gu Jingming said.
Yu Minmin said, "Alright, I think they're all very careful."
"They're just relatives from the side branches, so they rarely come to the old mansion."
"I see," Yu Minmin said. "Even Gu Jingyu came today. Ah, I feel like I'm witnessing history. Do you think he'll really reconcile with his family?"
Gu Jingming nodded. "Since he's back, it means he's reconciled. Previously, he just couldn't let go of his pride. Moreover, these people are always thinking that Grandfather doesn't like Jingyu. In fact, Grandfather likes Jingyu the most."
"Really?" Yu Minmin tilted her head and looked at him.
Gu Jingming said, "Old people always like the young. Moreover, Jingyu has always been a mischievous kid. Wherever he is, it's always lively. So, even if they broke up, how could it be like what people say? How could they not see each other? Some people even want to make an issue out of this. They forgot that Jingyu is a descendant of the Gu Family. He's Grandfather's biological grandson. No grandfather wouldn't want his own grandson. They're wrong."
"Alright, so you're saying that everything that happened today was just someone making an issue out of this?"
"Yes, it should be my aunt. She's always been at odds with my mother."
"Why would they be at odds?" Yu Minmin asked.
"Because Mother is the mistress of the Gu Family. She can only listen to Mother's arrangements."
"Alright … Actually, in ordinary families, sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law don't get along very well," Gu Jingming said.
"But … you won't be at odds with Lin Che in the future, will you?"
"Of course not," Yu Minmin said. "Why wouldn't we be at odds?"
"You're sisters-in-law. At the same time … one of you might be the mistress in the future."
"Ha, forget it," Yu Minmin said. "This is a matter for the management. If we really had the choice, we might have discussed it among ourselves. Just like our studio, we just have to work together. There's no need to compete."
Hearing this, Gu Jingming lowered his head and looked at Yu Minmin for a long time.
After a while, he said, "It's best if you think that way, because you can't be the mistress."
"Ah?"
"The future head of the family will be Jingze. This is almost decided by the family. I'm different from him."
Yu Minmin thought, Yeah, if he's going to be the president, then he can't be the head of the family.
But what did he mean just now? Was he testing her?
Yu Minmin secretly glared at him. She thought, How naughty.
She didn't want to be the mistress.
Gu Jingming suddenly came over. Yu Minmin quickly said, "You … What are you doing …"
"I seemed to have seen you glaring at me just now?"
Yu Minmin quickly said, "No, no. How could that be? I wasn't glaring at you …"
Gu Jingming looked at her slightly. His gaze seemed calm, but it was full of pressure. Yu Minmin didn't dare to look at him directly. She quickly looked away, but she could still feel Gu Jingming's oppressive gaze on the back of her head.
After a long time, Gu Jingming suddenly pulled her head over.
"Ugh …"
She wanted to say this in the car, but she didn't say it out loud.
Because her mouth had already been completely sealed by him.
