Hearing this, Lin Che smiled and said, “An apology isn’t necessary. You had no choice because of external matters. But you must still treat us. Although you’ve been busy all this while, at the very least, you were by Mr. President’s side. You must have had a much better time than we did, spending time with him every day. Give us a treat, give us a treat.”

“Yes, yes, I’ll treat you...” Yu Minmin said helplessly. “Let’s meet at Jinsha tonight.”

“Fantastic. Hehe.”

Lin Che first informed Gu Jingze about her plans when she returned home. Hearing this, Gu Jingze readily agreed to let her go out too. She had been very busy recently. This was a rare opportunity for her to let loose.

That night, they went to Jinsha. Lin Che had asked Shen Youran to come along. With the addition of Yu Minmin and Abby as well, they could probably consider it Ladies’ Night.

Yu Minmin and Lin Che were first to arrive. Shen Youran only arrived later.

The moment she came in, Shen Youran immediately asked Lin Che, “Has Mo Huiling really gone mad?”

Lin Che replied, “I don’t know. I never asked. But judging from what they said, it’s probably true.”

Shen Youran said, “Serves her right for thinking up ways to plot against you. She ended up plotting against herself instead.”

Lin Che said, “True. That’s why people... should be more kind-hearted. At least they wouldn’t cause their own death.”

Yu Minmin nodded in agreement. “It wasn’t your fault, to begin with. Neither was it Gu Jingze’s. It’s normal for a couple to break up too. Besides, she had been lying to Gu Jingze all this time. She pretended to be a good person in front of him but was actually devising evil plans in secret. In the first place, it’s wrong to behave like that in a relationship. You should be honest in a relationship.”

“Precisely.” Shen Youran added, “She wasn’t honest towards him and even plotted to tie him down by having a child. In the end, she hurt herself. Of course, she deserved it.”

Just then, someone knocked on the door to their private room. Thinking it was Abby, Lin Che told her to come in.

As expected, Abby had arrived. However, there was someone else behind her.

It was actually Xue Yang.

Lin Che was slightly surprised. Xue Yang entered the room and looked at them. He bowed sheepishly to everyone and said very politely to Lin Che, “Sister Che, Sister Yu.”

Lin Che looked at Abby and realized that she was the one who had brought him here.

Abby asked, “Why? The more the merrier. All of you know one another, right?”

Lin Che said, “I was just wondering when you two got to know each other.”

Abby replied, “I don’t have much to do at the company since all of you have been busy recently so I’ve been watching Xue Yang act.”

Lin Che looked at Abby slightly guiltily. It was true that she had been too busy recently. She had not paid much attention to Abby.

Abby said, “Come in, Xue Yang. This is a friendly gathering. You don’t have to be so nervous.”

Of course, Xue Yang was nervous. The entertainment industry was big on hierarchy. He was Lin Che’s and Yu Minmin’s junior, to begin with. Also, he knew Lin Che’s and Yu Minmin’s identities. If he were to consider it, he was probably nothing compared to everyone else in the room. Although he did not know Shen Youran, she was definitely not an ordinary person if she was gathered here with them. Thus, Xue Yang could not help but feel slightly nervous.

Lin Che glanced at Yu Minmin before looking at Xue Yang. It sure was easy for this handsome lad to attract young ladies.

Yunshi had been attracted to him immediately. So had Abby.

But Yu Minmin felt quite happy about it. The fact that he could attract young girls meant that they had been right to sign him on. It would be good if he could continue attracting young girls like these in the future. Currently, male idols really had it much easier than female idols.

After all, there were more fangirls than there were fanboys. Since they were attracted to the opposite sex, of course, they liked pretty boys more.

“Since you’re here, just come in. Why are you being shy? Are you shocked from seeing all these old women?”

There was no way Xue Yang dared to say that.

However, although they were not old and were merely in their twenties, an eighteen-year-old boy like Xue Yang did indeed find them old.

Xue Yang said, “Sister Che, you’re killing me.”

Abby said, “If that’s not the case, just sit down. Quick, sit. I’m about to die from hunger.”

Jinsha catered to the preferences of the younger generation quite well. The seats were not placed around a round table but a long table with couches beside it. The set-up was very cozy and they felt like they were in their own homes.

They ordered a table full of food. As Xue Yang was the only boy at the table and was so young, he immediately became the subject of everyone’s teasing.

He was still young and felt constantly shy at being teased. Thus, he did not even dare to speak.

Lin Che said, “Xue Yang, remember to tell us about it if any woman in the production crew comes onto you. You’re the only male celebrity our company is nurturing now. We’ll protect you.”

“...” Xue Yang’s face turned even redder immediately.

Abby nearly spluttered. “No way. Are people so straightforward even on the film set? But it makes sense. We’re like that too. People are becoming more and more open about this now. It seems like the same trend exists in the East.”

Yu Minmin said in disbelief, “Don’t listen to her talk rubbish. She’s just joking around.” Yu Minmin looked at Lin Che. “Look at you. You didn’t learn how to be proper from Gu Jingze even after being together with him. You’re so dirty-minded too. How can the great President Gu tolerate you?”

Lin Che tilted her head and pursed her lips. “He’s fine with it. He’s fine with it.”

Yu Minmin asked, “Or do you mean that Gu Jingze looks proper but actually likes that you’re dirty-minded? Hehe.”

“Ha. What’s wrong with being a little dirty-minded? Is it good to be a prude? If that really was the case... then I hope Mr. President will remain a prude for the rest of his life... if that happens, you better not regret it!”

“Damn you...” Yu Minmin’s face turned red. When it came to being dirty-minded, she was no match for Lin Che.

Although the attention was no longer on Xue Yang, he still felt uncomfortable and kept eating with his head bowed.

After all, the people they were talking about were people whom ordinary folks could never come into contact with. The way they spoke so bluntly about those people was really... unbelievable to him.

However, what happened next was worse.

Someone knocked on the door again. Thinking that it was the waiter, Lin Che called him in.

The person who came in was not the waiter, but... Gu Jingze.

He pushed the door open and walked in first with Chen Yucheng following behind him.

Lin Che immediately asked in surprise, “Hey, why are you here?”

Gu Jingze turned to look at Chen Yucheng. He was the one who had brought him here.

Chen Yucheng shrugged and said, “We came to take a look. We were afraid that you were talking behind our backs.”

“...” Shen Youran instantly stood up. “What? It must be your doing. No wonder you kept asking me which hotel we were at.”

There was space for Gu Jingze and Chen Yucheng to sit together with them. Fortunately, they had booked a huge private room. Otherwise, it would have definitely been cramped.

Then, Gu Jingze and Chen Yucheng immediately sat down as if this was their own house. It seemed like a routine to them.

Yu Minmin was completely dejected and complained, “No way. It was supposed to be Ladies’ Night... but all of you brought other people along. I... I’m not treating all of you to dinner. The person who earns the most should treat us. Hmph. All of you are tormenting me, a single dog. And you’re even asking for a treat? I’m not that nice!”
