Closing Party

Lin Che looked at Yu Minmin speechlessly.

After spending so much time with Yu Minmin, she felt that although Yu Minmin was snobbish, she was not actually very unlikeable.

Perhaps it was because the two of them both tended to openly show their snobbery. She felt that Yu Minmin was not pretentious and did not try to defend herself either, which was why she felt that Yu Minmin was not unlikeable.

Although Yu Minmin did not treat her extremely well in the past, she did not actually treat her very badly either. It was just that Lin Che was not popular. Naturally, she did not have so many opportunities. Right now, Lin Che could be considered one of the talents who she was focusing on cultivating, so the relationship between the two had begun to improve greatly.

Very soon after, they arrived at the clubhouse that Gu Jingyu had spoken about.

From the outside, they could see that this was not a typical clubhouse; instead, it looked like a resort clubhouse that was fully equipped with amenities. Underground, there was an entertainment venue and above the ground, there was a hotel. They could eat, sing, play games and go to the bar all at one go.

Observing from the outside, it was a high-rise building that took up a large ground area and made one instantly feel luxurious and classy.

People from the production team had all arrived in groups of two or three. They were mutually congratulated each other and celebrated the completion of filming for the television series.

Lin Che brought Yu Minmin along with her to sit at a place where it was not too crowded. They chatted leisurely and casually before sensing the enthusiastic sounds that presently exploded from around them when Gu Jingyu came.

Lin Che also quickly lifted her hands to applaud. However, she saw Gu Jingyu greeting the crowd before directly coming towards her.

Lin Che's confusion showed on her face. She looked at Gu Jingyu and felt slightly strange.

However, Gu Jingyu sat directly beside Lin Che, his face completely calm.

Lin Che said, "Why did you sit here?"

There are special seats over there for lead actors and important people in the production team. Why did he run over here?

Gu Jingyu looked at her. "It's quiet here. I like the quiet. Why?"

"…" Alright, as long as you're happy.

It was still Yu Minmin's first time sitting together with a top celebrity like this. She could not help but show her slight jitters; after all, although there were so many celebrities these days, there were only a few of these A-listers.

Gu Jingyu saw her and tilted his head to smile too. Yu Minmin's face showed a flattered expression and she quickly smiled at him as well.

After glancing at her, Gu Jingyu continued to start up a conversation with Lin Che. Lin Che could not reject it even if she wanted to.

Initially, she felt like it was nothing, but when she saw the astonished looks that everyone was sending their way, Lin Che felt a little too embarrassed. She anxiously wanted to get away.

When Lin Li came in, with one look, she unexpectedly saw Gu Jingyu sitting together with Lin Che.

It was difficult for her to not see it too because everyone was looking over there and enthusiastically discussing it. It was too pertinent.

She thought of her own well-organized engagement ceremony. Initially, she could have occupied the headlines for several days and be the subject of everyone's envy. However, a single Weibo post from Gu Jingyu allowed Lin Che to take advantage of it for a few days. Lin Li just felt her heart seize up in anxiety.

Recently, Lin Che had really become arrogant! No matter where she went, she never forgot to attract attention.

When Mu Feiran came in, everyone again proceeded to congratulate her together.

Lin Che looked at Mu Feiran enviously and said, "It'd be great if I could project an aura as strong as Sister Feiran's one day."

Behind Mu Feiran was the crowd of assistants and other staff who came with her. When she came in, she made her presence felt everywhere.

Gu Jingyu also followed suit and took a glance. He smiled and said, "One day, you'll be able to too."

Lin Che looked at Gu Jingyu. "You have such a glib tongue. Forget it. That'll take a long time."

"Believe in yourself. Every path is made from walking step by step. Back in the day, when Feiran was so poor that she couldn't even buy a meal, she didn't think that she would make it till today either."

"Really? Sister Feiran even had a time like that?"

"Of course. Otherwise, is everyone a celebrity the moment they're born?"

Of course! There were people who were born with gold spoons in their mouths. Lin Che glanced at Gu Jingyu. He and Gu Jingze were both such favored sons of God. They were the subjects of envy from birth.

Gu Jingyu immediately sensed Lin Che's thoughts. He smiled and said, "You think that you'd be happy if getting food was not a problem when you were young? Everyone has worries of their own; members of the Gu family do too. At the same time that we enjoy these benefits, we also have much more responsibilities weighing on our shoulders. That's why I can't be bothered to go back to the Gu residence. Look at me. I'm so wild and free now, right?"

However, Lin Che could not help but think of Gu Jingze.

Did Gu Jingze have worries too?

It was true. Thinking about it, she knew that it was first from the fact that he had to accept a marriage that he did not desire.

Thinking about it, she felt even more sympathetic towards Gu Jingze. He was completely fine but had fallen sick with this illness, making his perfect and great life a regretful one just because of Lin Che.

"Hey, I'm speaking to you. Who're you thinking about?" Seeing that her mind had actually begun to wander, Gu Jingyu could not help but pinch her nose.

"Aiyo, no way. I'm not thinking about anyone at all," Lin Che muttered guiltily to herself.

At the closing party, everyone enjoyed themselves very much and had a crazy time too. Following the completion of filming, there was going to be a break for some time while production on the television series began in full swing. When broadcasting was about to begin, everyone was going to gather again to promote and generate publicity for the series and begin attending promotional events.

Everyone drank a substantial amount of alcohol. Naturally, Lin Che did not skimp on the alcohol either. After returning from her short trip to the washroom, she realized that she could no longer find anyone else.

Even Yu Minmin had vanished without a trace.

Lin Che could only drink alone there for some time. However, she heard someone say from behind her, "Mr. President actually came."

"Anyway, in the first place, this is the Gu family's clubhouse. There's nothing wrong with Mr. President coming to his own family's clubhouse."

"Doesn't this place belong to Gu Jingze?"

"They're biological brothers. Why make the distinction with your own family? You didn't see the spectacle earlier. It's likely that he's staying overnight upstairs, so they enforced even more security and prohibited anyone from entering."

At this moment, Gu Jingyu returned. Lin Che quickly pulled Gu Jingyu aside and asked, "Earlier, they said that the President has arrived. Is he the eldest brother in your family?"

Gu Jingyu nodded his head nonchalantly. "Yes. Is there anything wrong with him coming?"

"It's nothing… your family is really… each and every brother is a giant among men."

"So you like it? If you like it, you can join the Gu family too. When that happens, I guarantee that you'll feel a completely different flavor," Gu Jingyu said while grinning.

Even more afraid of being found out, Lin Che lowered her head. She thought to herself in embarrassment, Right now she was one-half of a Gu family member…

Gu Jingming had been the President for three years. His track record had been consistently good and he enjoyed popular support. So naturally, there was always a large crowd of supporters following him wherever he went.

Lin Che saw someone running out to see the President. She unknowingly shook her head and remembered something. She asked frantically, "Why is Sister Yu missing?"

"Sister Yu? That manager of yours? I don't know. She seemed to be drunk when I saw her earlier. She staggered out unsteadily and didn't return again at all." Gu Jingyu arched his eyebrows and said, "Oh, if she went upstairs and bumped into the President, then your fun will end for sure."

"…" Lin Che thought gloomily that they would not be that unlucky.
