MY BEAUTIFUL BRIDE, VOLUME 8 - Season 13 Episode 27

What boyfriend and girlfriend…

Lin Che looked at Su Wan. As she looked at how she was behaving, she seemed to understand something all of a sudden. Surprised, she pointed her finger. “Ah… You’re… You… You and Gu Jingyu.”

Su Wan felt even more awkward. She looked down and said, “I’m sorry. I know that this is an issue of defying morality. I don’t deserve your forgiveness. I will leave and I will resign from the production. Also, I… will stay far away from Gu Jingyu.”

“Hey, hey, hey. I think you’ve misunderstood something.” Lin Che continued disbelievingly, “There’s nothing going on between Gu Jingyu and me. Did you think we were together?”

Su Wan went blank.

She had just been feeling guilty. Now, she was instead filled with confusion.

“Could it be… that you’re not?”

As expected…

Lin Che looked at her. “You’ve got it wrong. We’re not together. He and I merely have some familial relations. We’re also very good friends. Are you… are you his girlfriend? I was wondering why he has been so out of it recently. So it was because of you.”

Out of it?

That was impossible. How could he possibly be out of it because of her?

She knew that Lin Che had probably misunderstood. But Su Wan did not know how to explain either.

“You’re not a couple…” she said while looking down. However, she heard someone else arrive outside.

“Lin Che, you were looking for me?”

Gu Jingyu was back.

After coming in, Gu Jingyu immediately saw the two women unexpectedly standing together. It was so surprising that he paused.

Afterward, he glanced at Su Wan meaningfully and said to Lin Che, “Let’s talk outside.”

Lin Che also looked around before saying, “Oh, okay.”

Outside.

Gu Jingyu said, “I just went to the headquarters. They said that you had already left.”

Lin Che sighed and said, “I don’t know what to do either. But I need your support right now.”

Gu Jingyu said, “Of course, I will always support you.”

“Although the clan relatives have been scared off by me for the time being, I believe that the people who hurt Gu Jingze must be among them. Furthermore, we haven’t found out Father’s whereabouts too. They didn’t expect me to directly take charge of Gu Jingze’s subordinates. They also didn’t expect that his subordinates would be willing to obey my command. They were slightly shocked intially. Once they go back and regroup after the setback, they will come for us again.”

Gu Jingyu asked, “In that case, what do you want?”

“I want your personal guards.”

“Mine?” Gu Jingyu continued, “Sure. I’ll give them to you.”

Lin Che’s eyes shifted. “You must consider it carefully. Those are your personal guards. If you hand them over to me now, what are you going to do? If I don’t do a good job and there are casualties and injuries, that will be irreversible. When that happens, those losses will be yours.”

Gu Jingyu looked at her. “Since Second Brother trusts you so much, how can I not trust you? Go ahead. Tell me what you want to do. I will stand on your side no matter what.”

“Exactly.”

Just then, Black Hawk also walked in from behind.

Seeing that Black Hawk was actually here, Lin Che was slightly surprised for a moment. “Why are you…”

Black Hawk said, “I went to the Gu family’s headquarters to look for you. They said that you had gone looking for Gu Jingyu.”

Gu Jingyu looked at Black Hawk and said to Lin Che, “Besides, you still have so many people to back you up. So what are you afraid of?”

Black Hawk said, “You’re too much. How could you keep this from me?”

After the matter had broken out, Lin Che had yet to tell Black Hawk about it. Because Black Hawk was not a part of the Gu family after all. She was slightly concerned and worried that others would falsely accuse her of working with Black Hawk to do this and that after finding out that she had told him.

Lin Che looked at him. “In that case, who told you?”

“Niannian,” he said.

Lin Che came to a sudden realization.

She had forgotten about Niannian.

Lin Che said, “Of course I think it’s great to have help from you guys. Thank you.”

Black Hawk said, “It’s only right for an elder brother to help his younger sister out. Come on. Let me take you out for a meal first. Just by looking at you, I can tell that you must not have eaten yet.”

Indeed, she was so busy that she had even forgotten to eat.

But right now, she did not feel that hungry either.

Seeing this, Gu Jingyu added, “That’s right. Let’s go out and eat together then. I haven’t eaten too.”

“No need. You guys can go and eat. I’m not hungry yet. It makes no difference if I eat when I get back.”

Gu Jingyu said, “No way. How can you not eat? If you don’t eat and you make yourself collapse first how will you help Second Brother?”

It made sense when Lin Che thought about it.

She said, “Alright then. Let’s go and eat together.”

She knew that these two people only wanted to eat together because they wanted to watch over her and stop her from letting her imagination run wild.

She felt that it was better for her to accept their good intentions.

Before turning around, Lin Che said, “By the way, ask Su Wan to come along with us. I saw her inside.”

Gu Jingyu frowned. “No need.”

Lin Che asked, “Why is there no need? How will she eat otherwise?”

“Alright. She has probably eaten already. We can just eat on our own.”

“…” Not allowing Lin Che to say anything more, the two of them had already pulled her away.

Gu Jingyu returned only at night.

He went into the room and looked at Su Wan.

Su Wan had initially been reading the script. The moment she saw Gu Jingyu, she hastily jumped off the bed.

Su Wan said, “You’re back… I…”

Gu Jingyu immediately lay down and looked at Su Wan. “You’re not allowed to tell anyone that you saw Lin Che. Otherwise, you’ll suffer the consequences.”

“Huh? Oh, okay. I understand.” Su Wan thought for a bit before saying, “I thought that you two were together…”

Gu Jingyu said, “No. She’s my sister-in-law. Are you mad? I’m together with her?”

Sister-in-law?

Su Wan asked, “She’s married?”

“Hn.”

“To… your brother?”

“Hn.”

Su Wan seriously felt that she had embarrassed herself greatly.

But if it was Gu Jingyu’s brother, then… which one was it?

Gu Jingyu had two elder brothers. One was the current Mr. President Gu Jingming.

That was impossible. Madam President was always in plain view of everyone. There was no way it was Lin Che.

It appeared that his other elder brother was the low-profile tycoon Gu Jingze.

Could it be that Lin Che was already married to Gu Jingze?

Everyone had no knowledge of Gu Jingze at the moment. They did not know if he was married either. There was also no information or news circulating outside.

As for Lin Che, there had never been any news of her being married.

Judging from this, they were probably married.

So this was the actual situation…

Su Wan thought, No wonder Lin Che had such a different aura. Apart from the fact that she herself was already a movie star, she was also Madam Gu.

It was no surprise that the people around Lin Che were all so formidable. So all those bodyguards were not to be trifled with.

Now that she thought about it, they indeed shared similarities with those bodyguards around Gu Jingyu.

Su Wan said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know. I thought that the two of you…”

Gu Jingyu looked at Su Wan and asked, “You thought that we were together? Huh.” He beckoned Su Wan over with his finger.

Su Wan’s face turned completely red and she dared not move.

Gu Jingyu raised his eyebrows. “Your face is red now. Why wasn’t your face red when you came up to me and asked me to save you that day?”

“I…”

Gu Jingyu pulled her towards him in one swift motion and pressed her down onto the bed directly.

He looked at Su Wan. “Don’t worry. As long as you don’t do anything during this time to make things difficult for me, like getting involved with some other men or something, I won’t do anything to you. I’m not a beast either. You don’t have to be so scared of me.”

He looked at Su Wan.

Her cheeks were red and they entertained his wild thoughts of wanting to ravage her.

She said, “Alright… in that case, we’ve agreed that after a hundred days, I’ll…”

After a hundred days, what? She had already started to think about leaving him after a hundred days?
