Lin Che smiled dryly. “Well...”
She could not say that they were specially trained.
“I’m not sure about that either. Anyway, the company hired them.”
“Compared to those bodyguards we hired... eh, I can’t even say. They can’t even stop a fan.”
“Enough. Look at the number of fans you have.” Another cast member smiled and said, “Among the few of us, Lin Che is the one with the most fans. If her bodyguards aren’t good enough, she will seriously be swarmed anytime.”
Lin Che smiled and looked at them. “Don’t tease me anymore. I have always had just as many fans as I had haters.”
“We can’t even get haters if we wanted to.”
“That’s alright. Male celebrities don’t have as many haters as us female celebrities.”
Everyone laughed out loud. Although they expressed admiration that Lin Che exceeded them in terms of both her outfit and the services she engaged, men were really not as petty as women. Thus, when they expressed admiration they were simply expressing admiration. They were only envious for a little bit and would not actually take it to heart.
This was why Lin Che also felt more comfortable working with male celebrities.
When the event ended, Lin Che and Abby left the stage together.
Abby said, “Earlier, that person didn’t trip you up deliberately, right?”
Lin Che said in surprise, “That’s impossible.”
“Nothing is impossible. Perhaps she knew your identity...”
Lin Che said, “You make it sound so horrifying as if we’re filming a movie or something.”
Abby said, “You have to get used to it because you’re Madam Gu. The life of Madam Gu must definitely be more wonderful and exciting than a movie.”
It seemed true when Lin Che thought about it...
Before meeting Gu Jingze, the most she had experienced was a little bullying. But after meeting him, she had seriously experienced everything.
“But I think it’s probably nothing. It didn’t seem like she was acting.”
“You never know. Anyway, it’s better to be careful. I think that Gu Jingze’s worries are not unjustified. In the future, participate less in schedules with many people like this one,” Abby said.
Lin Che said, “I think so too.”
However, Abby immediately said again, “But you’re so popular now. You will definitely have many people chasing after you when you go out. Looks like you’ll probably have no way to prevent it...”
“...” She was right. These days, the fans would all follow their schedule. Such lively occasions would probably continue for some time. There was absolutely no way to avoid it.
Lin Che said, “That’s nothing. But why did I just find out that Yang Ling was actually nominated for the Golden Name Awards?”
Abby said, “I myself just heard about it. There was no mention of her in the insider news before this. But she has her ways. She probably thought of some way to get nominated.”
Abby looked at Lin Che. “Seeing that the reporters were rushing to ask about this today, it seems that she’s planning to strike. But we’re not afraid either. We’ll see whose momentum is bigger tomorrow.”
Sure enough, they saw Yang Ling’s team uploading posts just when they had returned to the company. In the posts, they said that Yang Ling had gotten nominated for Best Supporting Actress in the Golden Name Awards upon filming her first movie.
They made Yang Ling sound like a rare beauty that came by once in many years.
Yu Minmin was present as well. She sneered and said, “It’s so hard to believe. This child was so simple and honest back then. Why is she... such a braggart now?”

Abby asked, “So, what should we do now?”
“Ignore her. If we release the news that we were actually nominated for Best Female Lead, we would already be flattering her. Let her be proud first. She’s quite impressive if she really manages to obtain the award.”
Abby followed Yu Minmin’s instructions since she had more experience.
However, the big boss, nevertheless, immediately received the news that someone had tripped Lin Che and nearly made her fall.

Gu Jingze slammed the table. “How did you look after her?”
The people behind him froze at this. “There were too many people at the time...”
“I don’t care whether there are many people or not. If there were many people there, you should have sent more people to watch over her. I will punish all the people who went this time when they return. I’ll see who dares to be careless next time.”
Upon hearing Gu Jingze say this, everyone hastily returned to receive their punishment one by one.
Gu Jingze could not bear to blame Lin Che, so every single one of these subordinates proceeded to suffer for it.
However, it was fortunate that they understood how important the child was. They also understood the severity of the situation if anything happened, so they did not have much to complain about when they were punished.
When Lin Che returned home to see that each maid was more hardworking than the next, she felt clueless about what had happened.
The way one of the maids carefully put down a glass of water that she had poured for Lin Che made Lin Che very suspicious. Thus, she quickly pulled the maid towards her and asked, “What happened at home?”
The maid said, “It’s... it’s nothing.”
“Something definitely happened. Tell me.” Lin Che held the maid back and refused to let her go.
“It’s true...”
Lin Che looked at her with a tight expression on her face. “Are you going to tell me? Or should I go and ask your Sir? But you know what the consequences will be once I’m done asking him.”
Gu Jingze’s emotions were volatile right now. If his temper flared when the time came, they were done for again.
“Yes, yes, I’ll tell you... Madam, don’t be angry.” She hastily recounted what had happened and said that Gu Jingze had punished all the people who had followed her today.
The moment Lin Che heard this, she felt that the situation had not been that serious in reality. He seemed to have been too anxious.
She set down the glass and walked to the study room. She happened to overhear him on the phone inside.
“I want to know that reporter’s precise location.”
“You don’t have to bother about anything else. I just don’t want her to appear anywhere near my wife ever again. It would be best if she does not appear in C Nation as well.”
Lin Che quickly pushed the door open and walked in. “Gu Jingze, what are you doing?”
Gu Jingze looked at her. “Why are you here?”
Gu Jingze put down the phone, maneuvered himself around the table, and walked towards her.
Lin Che said, “Gu Jingze, don’t make such a big deal out of this.”
Gu Jingze said, “I didn’t make a very big deal out of it though.”
“That’s impossible. The great President Gu even went to ask personally for the precise location of a mere reporter. Isn’t that a big deal? The reporter will definitely be scared out of her wits if she heard about this. Let me ask you this. Which place in C Nation would dare to take her in if they heard that you had personally asked after her?”
Gu Jingze said indifferently, “What does that have to do with me?”
“I just don’t want to change someone’s life over such a small matter. I would feel guilty if that happened.”
Gu Jingze looked at her. “You’re just too kind.”
“I’m not being kind. If you did this to someone who treated me badly, I wouldn’t care about what happened to that person either. I wouldn’t ask you to let her off. But this person merely made a small mistake. Of course, I felt guilty after she was chased out just like that. Same with those security guards. In actual fact, they already did their job to the best of their abilities. If not, I would definitely have fallen today.”
Gu Jingze said, “They should have been prepared for all the possibilities. But they failed to do it, so...”
“So you punished them? Don’t be like this, Gu Jingze. Don’t punish them, alright?” Lin Che leaned against him once again. She looked up at him with a trace of coquettishness in her upward gaze.
