Chapter 204: This Is Your Reward, Little Drunkard
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Youran was busy poking her mother behind, but the father and son seemed happy to hear about her work.
The man spoke first, “I also heard that you’re working in Gu Industries. That’s not bad. I’ve already sent in my resumé and I think I’ll be able to get through soon. Which department are you in? I actually don’t think it’s very hard to get in there. I have a relative in the public relations department and we already met.”
Haha.
Shen Youran rolled her eyes internally.
The guy’s father immediately said, “Yes. Of course, Gu Industries have a shortage of overseas talents like our prodigy. Our prodigy will definitely get hired and then you’ll both be working at Gu Industries. Wouldn’t that be great? You’ll have someone to take care of you too.”
Shen Youran continued rolling her eyes.
The other party continued, “After you get married, it’ll be troublesome for you too. Are you busy in your department at Gu Industries? You’re a girl, after all. It’s best to switch to a less busy department. Gu Industries is such a big company and I heard that the workload and stress can be immense. There are bound to be some problems for a girl working there when she gets married.”
Shen Youran heard this and quickly said, “Ah, yes yes yes. I think someone like me who relied on relations to enter Gu Industries is not worthy of your Gao Caisheng. Perhaps you should continue looking…”
“…” Mother Shen turned around and glared at Shen Youran. She looked like she was going to kill Shen Youran with her eyes.
However, Shen Youran really was not interested in matchmaking. Especially not with such a self-proclaimed man.
After they left, Mother Shen then picked up the feather duster and chased Shen Youran around. She yelled, “Look at you. Such a good boy and you still rejected him. Who do you think you can reject? Do you think you’re high up now that you’re in Gu Industries? Or are you still in love with that d.a.m.ned Zhou guy? Don’t let me catch you chasing after him.”
Shen Youran quickly went into her own room and locked the door. She said, “Even if you beat me to death, I won’t go for this matchmaking! What is this? I’m only so young; why are you in such a hurry to marry me out?”
“I don’t care! If you don’t go for it tomorrow, I will beat you to death. If the next one comes and you dare to have this kind of att.i.tude again, don’t think I will be courteous!”
Shen Youran had to hand it to her.
At night, Lin Che’s drama was finally finished.
At the finale banquet, everybody raised their gla.s.ses.
Lin Che stood in the middle and was highly commended by the director.
“Our female lead is truly extremely professional. It is our entire crew’s honor to be able to work with such a female lead. We never felt tired at all. Rather, we enjoyed the filming.”
The smaller actors watched from the side with disdain.
This director was praising an actress so much that she was being devalued.
It was all because of that incident. The situation shocked him and made him so full of compliments.
However, everybody was indeed curious. They didn’t know who the man behind Lin Che was.
However, the crew did quite like Lin Che. Through their years of filming, Lin Che was one of those whom they wanted to continue working with after this. This was because she wasn’t problematic or proud. At first, everybody saw that she had such powerful backing and was jealous of her for a few days. But after that, they saw that Lin Che was still the way she was and didn’t seem affected by the incident. Thus, after a few days, they treated her normally.
So at the farewell, everybody went to Lin Che for a toast.
Not long after, Lin Che also got a little drunk.
With her remaining senses, she quickly called Gu Jingze.
“Hubby… What are you doing?”
Gu Jingze listened to her voice and could immediately tell that she was drunk.
“Is your dinner over? Stay there and don’t move. I’ll come to pick you up.”
“Hubby, it ended. I don’t think I can walk. I can’t find my legs.”
“Okay. Stay there and don’t move!” Gu Jingze was helpless. He quickly set off, afraid that she was really drunk and would go crazy there.
He had sort of witnessed her crazy drunken state before. Thinking about how she might spout nonsense and behave wildly with someone else, he was not pleased.
She was so sticky when she was drunk and would carelessly touch people. He absolutely did not want her to be drunk outside alone.
Very soon, Gu Jingze reached the place.
Luckily, her company members were also probably afraid of something happening to her. They made sure that someone was watching out for her. On the other hand, Lin Che did not seem so bad. She only sat by the road and obediently looked out. She looked so pure and adorable.
Getting drunk made her behave like a little child. Her eyes were innocent.
Soon, she got picked up.
Seeing Gu Jingze, Lin Che immediately went up to him, “Hubby, you’re here.”
Gu Jingze was helpless. He held Lin Che’s hand, “Sit still and put on the seatbelt. I’m taking you back.”
There was no chauffeur today. Gu Jingze drove by himself, so Lin Che sat on the pa.s.senger seat beside him.
“Oh,” Lin Che mumbled. She obediently looked down to buckle her seatbelt and leaned against the seat drowsily.
Gu Jingze glanced at her and smirked. He drove back home.
On the way back, Lin Che kept nodding her head as if she was dozing off. That dazed behavior was funny.
Very soon after, the car stopped outside the Gu residence.
“Okay, don’t sleep here. You’ll catch a cold,” Gu Jingze said to Lin Che and leaned over to unbuckle the seatbelt.
Lin Che woke up groggily and felt Gu Jingze’s head approaching her.
That masculine fragrance with a hint of toughness immediately wafted towards her.
He smirked and his eyes moved to her chest.
Her clothes were thin and with the belt against her chest, it looked even more obvious.
Lin Che noticed where he was looking at and immediately held her hands against her chest. She said slyly to him, “Pervert. You’re such a pervert. Where are you looking at?!”
The corners of Gu Jingze’s lips curled up. He raised his head, “Since you’re already calling me a pervert, why are you still asking me where I’m looking at? Aren’t you asking the obvious?”
“…”
Lin Che was drunk and there was a certain look in her eyes. It was enough to make any man excited.
Gu Jingze suddenly spoke, “Don’t drink carelessly outside in the future.”
“What?” Lin Che still could not comprehend what he just said.
In the next moment, her body was pulled over from her seat onto his body.
Lin Che faced him now. She was straddling him and staring straight into his deep eyes.
“What… What are you doing…”
“Listen to me. You’re not allowed to drink outside in the future.” He thought for a while and added, “Unless I’m beside you.”
“Okay…” as she was stared at so intensely like that, she was unable to think straight. At this moment, she would have agreed to whatever he asked.
Gu Jingze said, “Good. That’s a good girl. I’ll give you a reward.”
“What reward?” Lin Che tilted her head and asked ignorantly.
Then, his lips inched closer.
