MY BEAUTIFUL BRIDE, VOLUME 8 - Season 12 Episode 75

Lin Che said, “You’ll go bankrupt from bearing all the losses.”

Li Mingyu said, “Hehe. I’ll bear them. If I end up losing too much, I’ll just ask for compensation from someone else.”

Of course, the “someone else” he was talking about was Gu Jingze.

Lin Che said, “We’re working with each other. Who are you going to ask for money from? Hmph. Forget it. You’ll pay until you can’t find your underpants.”

“Good gracious. You talk so big. I have so much money. If you can lose it all, that’s a kind of skill too.”

Lin Che wondered how much money he exactly had to be able to speak so arrogantly.

However, while the two of them were playing around and joking with each other, they did not notice that the person beside them was still looking at the two of them. For a moment, she merely felt that the way the two of them were behaving… was truly alarming.

Chen Lanshan was flabbergasted. She had clearly been thinking that Li Mingyu would not allow anyone to mess around once he was here.

She did not expect Li Mingyu to indulge Lin Che to this extent.

Furthermore, looking at the two of them, it seemed that Li Mingyu was not just acquainted with Lin Che.

He did not even mind Lin Che messing around with him like this.

And Li Mingyu was still smiling as if he was very happy.

It was even more surprising to see because there had been numerous women around Li Mingyu in the past, but not one of them dared to speak to him this way.

Every single one of them was respectful towards Li Mingyu.

But she did not see any respect on Lin Che’s face at all.

The two of them… seemed like close friends messing around with each other.

Li Mingyu did not have a single friend around him. No one had ever seen him being well-acquainted with anyone because Li Mingyu’s personality always drew some criticism, and he did not like opening up to people. Although he had people to keep him company, most of them were business associates, bad friends, or fair-weather friends. Li Mingyu could not feel comfortable messing around with any of them.

What’s more, this person was a woman.

Chen Lanshan was still feeling surprised when Li Mingyu said, “Alright. In that case, you guys go ahead. Show me the results when you’re done. I’m really looking forward to it.”

“Sure. We’ll definitely work round the clock to make it and endeavor to produce it soon.”

For a moment, Chen Lanshan did not know what to say. She could only look at the two of them and shrug. She thought to herself, Alright, do whatever you want. I’ll look at the outcome when the time comes.

Anyway, the money belonged to the boss and not her.

But she nevertheless started to wonder if she had thought wrong. Lin Che did not seem to be in such a relationship with Li Mingyu.

They definitely had to take their time with the game. Meanwhile, the production for the second season of “Surprise Raiment of Rainbows and Feathers” was about to begin. Lin Che got busy with production for that. Thus, she instructed a few people to first slowly modify and test out the game according to their ideas, hoping that the game would be completed sooner.

Meanwhile, the kindergarten had organized a trip.

Lin Che and Mu Feiran were both preparing the necessary belongings for their children.

Mu Feiran said, “I heard that they’re going to the canyon. Honestly, I’m a little worried.”

Lin Che said, “Don’t worry. They won’t choose a place that’s too tough.”

“Eh. It’s mainly because I can’t stop worrying about Yunyun.”

Lin Che smiled and said, “Niannian will be around too. He will definitely look after his younger sister.”

“I sure hope so.”

In reality, it was indeed slightly worrying that the children were going on a trip. Lin Che was simply comforting Mu Feiran.

Any mother would worry about her child no matter what. It seemed that her child would be in danger at any time. Even if he was lying on the bed and sleeping restfully, she would have to go and watch over him. It was as if he would be in danger as long as he wasn’t right under her nose.

They prepared some food and drinks for their children and got their school bags ready. Then, they sent their children on their way.

The school bus parked outside the kindergarten. Lin Che walked over and said, “Niannian, take good care of Yunyun.”

Gu Shinian said, “Yes…”

“And Li Mo, too.”

Gu Shinian looked at the child shrink into himself at the back, not saying a word.

She could tell that the two of them did not seem to be on good terms. Lin Che pulled Niannian towards her and asked, “What’s wrong? Isn’t Li Mo your classmate? Why does it seem like you’re not on very good terms with him?”

Gu Shinian said, “I don’t like girls.”

“…” Lin Che was rendered speechless. “He’s a boy.”

“But I think he’s even weaker than girls.”

“…” Lin Che said, “Maybe it’s because you’re not familiar with him. When you don’t understand a person, don’t come to presumptuous conclusions about that person.”

Gu Shinian curled his lip despite this.

Lin Che said, “Alright. You make your own friends. I won’t interfere. Well then. I feel weird this time. Take good care of Yunyun.”

“Don’t worry.”

Lin Che patted his little backpack and guided him onto the bus.

As she watched the line of people leave, Lin Che felt vaguely unhappy inside. She was undoubtedly worried. She was probably going to sleep badly for the next two days.

But she had to let her child go eventually. She had to let him experience the world. Whether it was good or bad, he would make his own judgments. Lin Che would not stop him from going for a school trip just because she was worried.

—

The canyon was less than three hours away from B City. They had brought tents with them and would camp there for the night before returning the next day.

All the children were going camping for the first time. They were extremely excited.

But the teachers were so nervous that they did not dare to sleep.

Gu Shinian stayed with Yunyun the whole time.

Yunyun asked, “Niannian, can I sleep together with you tonight?”

Gu Shinian said, “No.”

“Why not?”

“Because you’re a girl. Girls have to sleep with girls.”

“Really? But Uncle Mo always coaxes me to sleep at home.”

“…” That’s your father.

Gu Shinian said, “Alright. I’ll tell you a bedtime story later, okay?”

“Great, great.” Yunyun sat there obediently. The people around them seemed unable to join in their conversation. They sat there and watched the two of them.

Yunyun was actually quite popular in the kindergarten, because she looked adorable, like a little princess. She was always dressed neatly and her face was plump. The teachers liked her and the children, following suit, also liked her.

But Yunyun only hung out with Gu Shinian. She never liked playing with other people.

Furthermore, Gu Shinian was so terrifying. When he was with Yunyun, no one dared to disturb him.

The little Li Mo was sitting all the way inside at the moment.

When Yunyun saw Li Mo sitting alone over there, as if feeling extremely lonely, she picked up a bag of snacks and walked towards him.

“Hey, this is for you to eat.”

Li Mo raised his head to look at Yunyun.

Yunyun said, “This is so delicious. My mother packed a lot of it.”

Li Mo stretched out his hand in an attempt to take it.

Gu Shinian walked over and quickly yanked Yunyun towards him. “Don’t run off on your own.”

After being pulled away, Yunyun looked at Gu Shinian. “Brother Niannian.”

Li Mo raised his head to look at Gu Shinian, not saying a word.

But he slowly lowered his gaze.

Gu Shinian narrowed his eyes at Li Mo. Then, he dragged Yunyun back to their original seats.

Yunyun asked strangely, “Brother Niannian, why can’t we play with him? My mother said that Li Mo’s father is Auntie Lin Che’s friend.”

Gu Shinian said, “You’re not allowed to because I say so.”
