Chapter 1057: It Was Really Like A Blockbuster Scene
Because the holiday resort they chose was a fun one and not a top-grade luxury resort, the place on this side of B City was not extravagant. It was a small town just beside B City. Visitors would come on the weekends, thus creating a demand for holiday resorts. However, the environment was not as clean and tidy as hotel rooms in the big city.
To think that Gu Jingming had to stay here. It must have been compromising for him.
She looked up and said, “This place is place is a little lackl.u.s.ter.”
“Yeah, why?” He looked down plainly at her as his fingers caressed her hair.
Yu Minmin said, “It’s nothing. I’m just worried you won’t be able to sleep well because you’re not used to it.”
“Why not? As long as you’re here, I’ll be able to sleep.” He lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.
Yu Minmin rested her head against his neck, making his entire body crave for her. She said, “The one and only Mr. President, here in this holiday resort. It must be hard for you.”
Gu Jingming continued fiddling with her hair. “I’m not Mr. President today. I’m here as Yu Minmin’s husband.”
Yu Minmin heard this and couldn’t help but smile.
Yu Minmin listened and it seemed to be already silent outside. It looked like Gu Jingze and Lin Che were already in their room.
Yu Minmin looked up. “Gu Jingze seems very busy recently.”
Gu Jingming nodded. “Yes.”
“What is he busy with? Xue Mengqi is back this time and he didn’t even accompany Lin Che back to the Gu household.”
Gu Jingming explained, “The Xue family’s forces abroad are kicking up a fuss. The family has been abroad for a long time and has acc.u.mulated power in that period. Xue Mengqi is back while they are still at it overseas. Jingze took this opportunity to head out and handle some matters outside the country on top of the Xue family’s. He also wants to finish it once and for all so that he can then keep Lin Che company.”
“I see… So tell me, is the Xue family truly powerful now? Are they… going to fight for the matriarch spot and threaten Lin Che?”
Gu Jingming said, “It’s hard to say if they can or not now. But I can imagine that they definitely won’t let it go without putting up a fight. This is the Xue family’s one and only chance to get close to the heart of the Gu family. They are definitely going to try their best.”
“Okay. I’m also very worried that something might happen to Lin Che. Sigh. Especially now that she’s pregnant, I’m afraid they might use that against her.”
Gu Jingming said, “Don’t worry. Jingze won’t let anything happen to Lin Che.”
“Okay.” Yu Minmin laid there and closed her eyes, enjoying the peace and quiet at that moment.
Unexpectedly at this moment, someone suddenly knocked on their door.
Gu Jingming frowned. He thought for a while and decided to get up.
Everyone knew that he brought very little people with him here just so that he could get some undisturbed rest. However, if they still dared to come over, it must have been something serious.
Gu Jingming opened the door and saw that Linda herself was here.
“What’s up?” Gu Jingming asked.
Linda did not look good. She looked at Gu Jingming and said, “Sir, someone just posted something on the Internet. Take a look…”
“What thing…”
Gu Jingming looked down and saw a post on the Internet. It said that Gu Jingming had a political marriage with Yu Minmin. She was sold to be in Gu Jingming’s bed at that time and in order to keep his political image, he pretended to marry Yu Minmin.
There were many photos of them at the beginning. The clear photographs showed that Yu Minmin was drunk beyond consciousness and was brought into Gu Jingming’s room. She was later sent out in the middle of the night.
Gu Jingming’s eyes moved and his face instantly sank.
Linda looked at him. “Sir…”
“Get the others here immediately,” Gu Jingming instructed. “Seal this information and protect Madam. Get someone to investigate and look into who posted this. Put Glazed Tile Palace on full alert and the presidential guards on first alert.”
His meeting with Yu Minmin happened so many years ago. Why would these people suddenly bring it up? What was their motive? For them to suddenly do this when Yu Minmin was pregnant now, who exactly were they targeting?
Gu Jingming had no choice but to be on full alert to tackle anything at any time.
The people who came for the annual meeting were prepared to leave the holiday resort the next day.
They were sound asleep when they suddenly heard the commotion outside.
They looked down from their windows and felt that something was not right.
The outside was suddenly on lockdown. The presidential guards, national security, people in all kinds of uniforms, and even armed forces with heavy weapons appeared down below.
It was like a scene out of a blockbuster film. Were they teleport through their sleep?
But then, they also recalled that Mr. President was here too.
Mr. President was here. In that case, this was logical. It was just that it was their first time seeing such a scene. Thus, they were really stunned.
Gu Jingming headed straight for Gu Jingze’s room and knocked on the door.
Lin Che saw that it was Gu Jingming. He looked extremely stern. She quickly left to let the two men talk.
Outside, she saw that Yu Minmin was also rather puzzled as if she had no idea what was the emergency. Lin Che helped Yu Minmin. “There seem to be many people outside.”
Yu Minmin said, “I probably have to head back soon. They’re here to pick me up.”
Lin Che was surprised. “So many people escorting you? Did something happen?”
“I don’t know either.” Yu Minmin was also worried. At this moment, Gu Jingming was already back outside. He looked at the two of them and said to Yu Minmin, “I’ll get my men to send you home first.”
Gu Jingze followed behind and said to Lin Che, “You will head home too.”
Lin Che quickly went to Gu Jingze’s side. “What happened?”
“We’ll talk when we get home,” Gu Jingze replied.
Lin Che nodded and waved to Yu Minmin. They looked at each other and decided to continue their chat over the phone when they were both at home.
People in the company naturally did not know what happened, but they saw their bosses leave just like that.
Gu Jingming let Yu Minmin leave under protection while he stayed behind to discuss the matter with Linda. Thus, the area was still protected. This made the company staff more curious as they continued watching from their rooms. They felt as if they were experiencing a political matter, so up close for the first time.
Yu Minmin was escorted to the car. She turned to look in Gu Jingming’s direction and was worried. She was filled with insecurity and couldn’t really leave in peace. The staff next to her said, “Madam, Sir would like you to leave as quickly as possible. He will come back home soon. Don’t worry too much.”
Yu Minmin nodded and got into the car. However…
The staff looked at each other and drove off. But shortly after…
Yu Minmin rested there and felt drowsy. She immediately sensed that something was not right. She was clearly not that tired. Furthermore, when met with a situation like this, she would never be this sleepy…
