Chapter 1027: The Rules Are Not Meant To Bind You

Yu Minmin said, “No, I’m not from a wealthy family, but you are. You’re from the Lu family.”

“Idiot.” Upon hearing her sarcasm, Lin Che shot her a look.

Lin Che said, “The Gu family is really not as simple as I thought. However, Gu Jingze was not the head of the house previously. He was just Gu Jingze. Now that he is the head of the house, I guess he has to face many more internal matters now and that’s why it feels so complicated to me.”

Yu Minmin sighed. “Yeah. It’s just like if I didn’t enter Glazed Tile Palace, I’d probably have never known in my whole life that there were so many problems and complicated things in the world waiting for the president to handle. They’re not small matters like losing a wallet or fistfights or lawsuits over some property. These are matters that affect the entire nation. As the saying goes: with great power comes great responsibility. There is a lot more consideration involved.”

Lin Che thought about that Xue Mengqi.

“I saw some clan members and women just now. I feel like everyone in the family is very capable.”

“Oh, who have you met? There are so many clan members and you were able to meet all of them?”

Lin Che said, “No, it’s just that one who came to say hello to me. I talked to her a little. Her name is Xue Mengqi and she just returned from overseas.”

Upon hearing Xue Mengqi’s name, Yu Minmin paused a little and looked at her. “Xue Mengqi? She’s back already?”

Seeing Yu Minmin’s response, Lin Che asked, “Why? Do you know her?”

Yu Minmin looked at Lin Che with seriousness in her eyes as she frowned. “I don’t and of course, I have not met her. After all, given Gu Jingming’s status, we can’t come back home often. I’ve only heard it from Gu Jingming that this Xue Mengqi is not a simple person.”

Lin Che propped her chin with her hand and listened seriously. “How so?”

“Well, she has five university doctoral degrees. She has been to over thirty countries and established five companies in a few years, but none of those are in her charge. It was mainly to help set up funds for Gu Industries to do charity. Later, she was chosen as a charity ambassador for six countries and she has been moving around these places for charity.”

“Ah, that’s not so different from what Gu Jingze told me, just not as detailed. No wonder you are the gossip girl. You know so much,” Lin Che said. “It looks like she really is capable. It’s not easy to gain respect from so many countries.”

“Indeed. The important thing is her intention of returning to the family at this time,” Yu Minmin said.

Lin Che’s gaze wavered. “Are you saying that her return is not innocent? She has a motive for coming back?”

“That’s right. Gu Jingming said that the clan members hold her in high regard as she is charitable and can manage things well. She is a very capable woman and has been deemed the most capable out of the womenfolk. Thus, when Gu Jingze assumed the position as the head of the house, everyone did not believe in you. They had been requesting a separate housemistress and Xue Mengqi is one of their chosen candidates.”

Lin Che’s eyes widened and glistened as she looked at Yu Minmin. “So, by coming back at this time, she intends to snatch the position of the Gu family matriarch?”

“Yes, I don’t think it’s all coincidental.”

Lin Che narrowed her eyes and thought about the things Xue Mengqi said to her.

That behavior indeed harbored a sense of hidden intent. It was subtle but she could feel it.

Thus, at that time, Lin Che didn’t like her. It turned out that a woman’s sixth sense could tell if a person liked you or not. She could sense that Xue Mengqi did not like her either.

Lin Che thought for a while. “This means that with her return now, there’s going to be a showdown. Ha.”

Challenge was knocking right on her door.

Yu Minmin said, “This is also going to be a problem. For each day you don’t accept your role, there will be a threat. However, given your body condition now, you’ll be so busy if you accept the house mistress role. It won’t be good for the baby either. Thus, now really isn’t the best time.”

Lin Che said, “Let’s keep calm. You have said that this has happened in the past but not many times. If she’s eyeing the house mistress position, it’s probably not something she could take in one or two days either. Let’s wait and see first.”

“That’s right. In any case, it’s best to be cautious towards her.”

Just then, someone outside said that Grandpa Gu had some movement.

Lin Che and Yu Minmin got up but did not go out. Lin Che made Dong Zi go over to check things out.

Dong Zi obeyed and returned a while later.

Dong Zi said to Lin Che, “Miss, Grandpa Gu woke up for a while before passing out again.”

“Oh. What did the doctor say?” Lin Che was worried.

Dong Zi said, “The doctor said that it was a good sign. It showed that he was gradually recovering. His physical condition is now very stable and it shows that he will not go into a vegetative state.”

“That’s good,” Lin Che said.

No matter what, it would be regretful if anyone died suddenly.

Too many deaths would make anyone upset.

Once Gu Jingze was done outside, he came to pick up Lin Che.

Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze and remembered what Yu Minmin said. “Yu Minmin said that I’m not supposed to be here.”

Gu Jingze took her hand. “Why not?”

Lin Che said, “It’s your family rule and you never told me.”

Gu Jingze looked at her and said as they strolled along, “Rules are for outsiders to see. It’s for bounding people who are difficult to bind, not for you to abide by.”

“But why didn’t you tell me?” Lin Che asked.

Gu Jingze smiled. “Because I didn’t think you would last this long, so I didn’t tell you.”

Fine… In the beginning, they didn’t think that they would have a future together.

At that time, Gu Jingze was the ocean while she was a grain of sand. Who would have thought that they would go hand in hand one day and become inseparable?

“What happened after that?”

“After that, I thought that rules were too binding for you and I didn’t want my woman to have to abide rules. I like you being carefree.”

Lin Che laughed. “Ah. Wouldn’t the others say anything?”

Gu Jingze said, “We fight hard to stand at the highest position so that others wouldn’t be able to say anything.”

Gu Jingze’s face was incomprehensible as he stood against the wind. There was an aura around him that was domineering.

Although he didn’t seem as violent as Black Eagle, he could still make people cower in fear.

Lin Che gazed at him and couldn’t help but feel that this man was so undeniably powerful.
