The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage novel Chapter 137

Lin Che asked curiously, "What banquet is it?"

Gu Jingze said, "Just an internal charity banquet. I need to bring a female partner along."

Lin Che replied, "Then take your female partner along."

"I have a wife. Why would I need a female partner?"

Lin Che laughed, "Alright. Then, I'll... go with you."

On the outside, it was as if she was being forced but she was actually happy about it.

To attend a banquet with Gu Jingze.

She had never done that before...

Soon after, the caretaker called and told Lin Che that she would be picked up to change her clothes and tidy up so that it would be more convenient for her to attend the banquet.

In the evening.

Gu Jingze arrived early and was in Lin Che's private makeup studio. As the makeup artist was a top-skilled professional, there usually was a lot of people. Yu Minmin even wanted to bring Lin Che here to get her makeup done for the award ceremony but there was a long line. Today, because of Gu Jingze, Lin Che had the whole studio to herself.

The makeup artist did not know Gu Jingze's relation to Lin Che, but she abided her work ethic and did not ask. She did not involve herself with the gossip outside either and was very courteous to Lin Che.

When Gu Jingze arrived, she was extra cautious.

They were not afraid of gossip.

Whoever dared to gossip about Gu Jingze would be asking for a death wish.

Gu Jingze saw that Lin Che was all ready as she turned around. She was dressed in red which somehow did not look flirtatious on her. Instead, it was so refreshing like a flower blooming after the rain. She looked so pure and clean.

The makeup artist at the side remarked, "Miss Lin is very pretty and her skin is good. Out of all the people I've done makeup for, Miss Lin's skin is the best."

Lin Che turned back and smiled shyly. She lifted her skirt and looked at Gu Jingze, "How do I look? Good?"

Gu Jingze smiled and nodded, "Hm, I guess you do the dress justice."

"..." Lin Che pouted. She just knew that he wouldn't say nice things!

Couldn't he talk nicely?

Gu Jingze tugged Lin Che and said, "Let's go." In the car, Lin Che asked Gu Jingze, "Is the banquet this time huge? Why did you invite me? Will it be okay?"

"It will be okay. Everybody is bringing a female partner so nobody will ask about our relationship. The banquet is quite huge. It's an annual charity banquet."

"Oh, but I don't think I've ever been to any banquets with you before," Lin Che asked with curiosity.

Gu Jingze said naturally, "Of course. I usually let my employees attend these banquets on my behalf. I don't normally attend them."

"Really? But I thought it would be like in a TV show. Capitalists like you would be going around banquets and whatnot. There would be lots of entertaining to do."

Gu Jingze replied, "You're talking about capitalists in small companies. That is why one must climb right up to the top. Otherwise, you'll face other people forever."

Did he mean that with his position now, he didn't need to face other people and entertain them anymore?

Gu Jingze was really... praising himself with every opportunity he got.
