"I don't have much to do these days. You can rest at home and take a look at these scripts."
Yu Minmin threw a bunch of scripts to Lin Che. Lin Che looked at them and said speechlessly, "What are these?"
Yu Minmin said, "These are the scripts we want you to act in. We're still choosing. You can take a look first and tell me if you're interested."
"Wow, there are so many scripts," Lin Che said in surprise.
Yu Minmin smiled and said, "That's not all. We're choosing the female lead role, so there won't be any bad productions."
"Female lead?"
"Yeah, I won't give you a supporting role anymore. The first one is a supporting role, so the second one must be a main character to make you stand out. So this script is very important. Take your time to choose."
The two of them walked out side by side. Suddenly, Yu Minmin's phone rang.
Yu Minmin looked at the number and her expression changed slightly. She turned to smile at Lin Che and walked out to answer the call.
"Dad, what's up?"
"Daughter, my good daughter, I've decided to turn over a new leaf. I've let you and your brother down all these years. I've decided to quit gambling today."
Yu Minmin listened to the solemn voice on the phone and smiled. "Tell me, how much did you lose this time and how much do you want me to give you?"
"Not much … really, not much. I was cheated this time. In the last round …"
"I'm not interested in what happened. Tell me the result. How much do you owe?"
"Thirty thousand …"
"Thirty thousand … Dad, this is my salary for a few months!"
"Daughter, you're my only daughter. You have to help me. Otherwise, they'll take your mom away and make her cook to pay off the debt."
"You …" Yu Minmin took a deep breath. "For mom, dad, for mom and brother, can you stay away from mom and brother? Can you divorce mom? "
"You … are you still my daughter!"
Yu Minmin put down the phone. When she went outside, Lin Che saw that Yu Minmin looked a little absent-minded. She couldn't help but ask, "Sister Yu, what's the matter?"
Yu Minmin smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just some personal matters. Go back and read your script. I won't be seeing you off."
Lin Che nodded, but his gaze was still on Yu Minmin. "Sister Yu, I feel that you're quite mysterious sometimes."
"What?" Yu Minmin smiled.
Lin Che said, "I've been working with you for so many years, but I've never heard you mention your family or your personal affairs. Everyone says that you're a workaholic."
Yu Minmin looked at Lin Che. "I've never mentioned that you and Lin Li are sisters. You're the daughter of the Lin Family."
Lin Che stared blankly for a moment. Then, he let out a cold laugh and said, "I just feel like there's nothing much to say. Even if I say it, it's useless. I might as well fight hard on my own and break away from those people and the past."
Yu Minmin said, "That's why I've always liked you because you've never complained. You're always right, and it's useless even if you say it. That's why I've never said it. Remember, this is a society that doesn't appreciate failure. I don't like to bring my negative energy to others. Everyone has their own troubles, so why should I let others bear my troubles for me? It's like rubbing salt on my own wounds …"
As Yu Minmin spoke, she waved for Lin Che's car to come over and drove him away.
Lin Che turned around and watched as Yu Minmin turned around and walked back into the company alone. He only felt that her back view was a little lonely and lonely. It was very different from the strong and invulnerable look she used to have in front of others.
Lin Che returned home with a pile of scripts.
Gu Jingze saw Lin Che carrying the things and asked someone to take them.
"What are these?" Gu Jingze asked.
Lin Che said, "The company asked me to pick the scripts."
Gu Jingze raised his eyebrows and took out a script to read. The name on it was "Golden Armor's Love".
The name was terrible.
Lin Che sat on the sofa and piled up the scripts on the table. He leaned against the table and flipped through them casually.
Gu Jingze sat on the other side and picked up Lin Che's script to read.
"Let me help you," Gu Jingze said. "These are all for you to pick, right?"
"Yeah."
Lin Che looked at him speechlessly. "Do you know how to read them?"
Gu Jingze said, "I'm a master's student at McGill University."
"…"
Lin Che said, "Literature and acting are different!"
"But since they're both arts, there should be something in common."
Lin Che grabbed the script and looked up at Gu Jingze strangely. "But you're a businessman who stinks of money. Why would you study literature?"
Gu Jingze said without looking up, "I also have a Ph.D. in economics from Harvard and a master's degree from Yale University's School of Psychology and Law. I studied economics and management at MIT, but unfortunately, my time was limited, so I only got a bachelor's degree."
"…"
Lin Che raised his hands at him, his face full of admiration. "Genius, accept my knee."
Gu Jingze raised his head. "Genius?"
Lin Che said, "It means someone who's good at studying."
Gu Jingze said, "I see."
Lin Che couldn't help but ask curiously, "But how can you study so many things at the same time? How can you finish studying in a four-year university?"
Gu Jingze said, "Don't you know that some universities allow students to study at the same time?"
"But what's the use of studying so many things?"
"Of course it's useful. It's always good to know more."
"I can't understand …"
"Yeah, with your brain capacity, you really can't understand."
"Hey, Gu Jingze, I'm a university graduate after all."
"You're a university graduate?" Gu Jingze tilted his head and looked at her in disbelief.
Lin Che said, "Didn't you say that you've investigated everything about me before we got married?"
"There are some unimportant things that the people down there did not report to me."
"…" Did he mean that her studies were unimportant?
Lin Che said indignantly, "I graduated from the Drama Academy. That's still a bachelor's degree!"
"Oh, really?" Gu Jingze raised his eyebrows and asked.
Lin Che felt a little guilty. "Of course, I graduated after all."
"Really? How many scholarships did you get? "
Lin Che felt even more guilty. She pursed her lips and thought about what to say.
Gu Jingze laughed. "Looks like you didn't even pass."
"No, I got 61 marks. That's a pass!"
Gu Jingze raised his eyebrows. "61 marks … Lin Che, you're really bad at studying."
"…" Lin Che then realized that he was just provoking her.
"You're indeed a profiteer!"
"Don't you like profiteers like me?" Gu Jingze moved closer. Seeing her angry face, he wanted to reach out and pinch her cheeks.
He didn't mind her academic results. Instead, he thought it was fun to tease her like this.
On the other hand, her look of admiration made his vanity explode, and he felt very happy.
