Chapter 543: What Are You Afraid Of? We Can Just Pay For The Damage

With Lin Che in his arms, Gu Jingze said in disbelief, “Alright. We’ll talk about it again later.”
Behind them, the manager was crying.
“What am I going to do about this…”
The fat man was sitting on the floor in a daze. He held his injured head. “You hit me, you hit me. I won’t let you guys off. Compensate me, compensate me. My face, good lord…”
Gu Jingze lowered his head and said, “We’ll pay for the items we damaged and the medical fees for your injuries. Why are you shouting? You just got beaten up, that’s all.”
The manager was speechless.
How domineering…
It was their first time he encountered such a person.
Gu Jingze said, “Get someone to quantify the damages and send the bill to the Gu family.”
Then, he pulled Lin Che to her feet and lifted this drunk woman into his arms in one swift motion. He carried her out and gestured for someone to bring Yu Minmin out at the same time.
He could not believe that these three women… had actually come here together and caused trouble.
They could not have predicted that such a thing would happen. Otherwise, they would not have let them go out alone either.
Everyone inside was stunned as they watched them leave in a formation.
What the h.e.l.l just happened? Three women had beat someone up and broken things, but they simply left just like that.
It was probably because they were so rich that they could afford to pay for the damage, so they could cause whatever damage they wanted.
Things were not cheap here. But they had not even glanced at the damage and had simply said that they would pay for the damage and injuries that they had caused. They would pay whatever amount was asked for.
It was no wonder that these three women dared to throw their weight around when they had people to back them up.
As people looked at the broken shards on the floor and the man wailing over there, they were left completely speechless.
Someone even pulled the man to his feet.
“That’s enough. Stop lying on the floor. They already said that they would pay. You’re a man but you let yourself get beaten up by women. Aren’t you embarra.s.sed?”
The man was completely stunned as well. “I… I didn’t expect this to happen either. I’m so unlucky to have encountered such a thing here. Good Lord, my face.”
Everyone was clicking their tongues in wonder.
“It must be great to be rich. After getting into a drunken frenzy outside, smas.h.i.+ng things and hitting people, you still have someone to clean up your mess…”
Lin Che and Shen Youran were led out and forced into separate cars.
As for Yu Minmin, Gu Jingze had quickly informed Gu Jingming about what had happened when he had arrived.
Gu Jingming was already here when she came out.
The moment he saw Yu Minmin being a.s.sisted by a bodyguard, he walked towards her and swiftly took her into his arms.
Gu Jingming asked, “What happened?”
Chen Yucheng said, “Nothing much. They were drunk and beat someone up inside.”
“…”
Gu Jingming looked down and glanced at Yu Minmin before pus.h.i.+ng her straight into the car.
These women… sure enough, they should never be allowed to gather together.
Just like that, the three of them were separately led away.
After arriving home, Lin Che was completely unaware of what had happened and fell asleep immediately.
The next day.
Gu Jingze woke her up early in the morning.
“It’s time to wake up, Lin Che. Quick, get up.”
Lin Che opened her eyes immediately. “Ah… my head hurts.”
Gu Jingze was looking down at her. “So you can still feel your head hurting. Are you going to recklessly go out and wreak havoc again?”
“I…” Lin Che instantly recalled the events of yesterday. “Ah… we, we… what did we do?”
“Aren’t you embarra.s.sed about it at all? The three of you beat someone up,” Gu Jingze said.
He himself found it surprising. Three women beating up a man was seriously…
Lin Che smacked her head before finally remembering.
She felt unbearably awkward for a moment. “No way. Then, what are we going to do?”
“He was the one who started the fight and you guys were only reacting, right?” Gu Jingze felt that Lin Che would not get into a fight for no reason.
She had been impulsive then and had not controlled herself after getting drunk.
She said helplessly, “I’m sorry… in actual fact, he didn’t really do anything. He was merely a little vulgar with his words, but I couldn’t control myself…”
“Don’t ever do this again.” He tapped her forehead lightly.
“Yes, yes. I definitely won’t do it again…” Lin Che said quickly.
“You can just get the guards to beat him up. Why did you do it yourself? What if he was the better fighter and you got into trouble?” Gu Jingze said.
Lin Che froze immediately. “Ah…”
So he wasn’t blaming her for hitting someone?
“Aren’t you angry that I hit someone?”
“You hit him because he had a foul mouth,” Gu Jingze said.
“But we’ll have to compensate him, right?” Lin Che said.
“I’m not so poor that I can’t even afford to compensate him this small amount of money. My woman doesn’t need to suppress her feelings just because of money either. If I have to compensate him, I’ll do it.”
Lin Che’s eyes twitched and she looked at Gu Jingze.
He was so good to her and made her heart feel so warm.
Nevertheless, she should avoid doing such things in the future. She must have been so pampered by him that she did not think about the consequences at the time.
In the past, she definitely would have thought about it but would not have taken action…
But she really felt that being rich gave her the guts to do these things…
“But if you dare to drink so much alcohol next time, I definitely won’t let you off!”
“…” Lin Che hastily smiled to appease him. “I won’t, I won’t…”
Gu Jingze patted her head. “Do you know what day it is today?”
“Uh… I think we’re supposed to wors.h.i.+p our ancestors,” Lin Che replied after thinking about it.
After a pause, she sprang up frantically. “No way, we’re supposed to wors.h.i.+p our ancestors… I can’t believe I forgot about it. Good Lord.”
Gu Jingze shook his head in disbelief. “Forget it. You don’t have to go. Just stay at home and rest. I’ll let my mother know that you’re not feeling well.”
Of course, Lin Che could not let that happen.
She hastily said, “No way, no way. To be honest, I don’t need to rest either. Forget it. Since I was the one who caused this trouble, I should still go. It’s my first time attending such a major event. Of course, I must go.”
Lin Che quickly jumped off the bed and promptly went to wash up and change.

The members of the Gu family were split into two groups. One group went up the mountain to deliver the necessary items. The women stayed at the bottom to have a chat over tea.
Upon arriving at the cemetery, Lin Che realized that there was a very beautiful-looking mountain above. There was also a park below which was now completely filled with members of the Gu family. Thus, the area was cordoned off.
In actual fact, the area was not intentionally blocked off to outsiders. However, with bodyguards standing around a family of people in the middle, it was obvious that they were not ordinary people, so many people dared not come close.
Before the men started going up the mountain, Gu Jingze looked at the listless Lin Che and asked, “Why? Is your head still hurting?”
Lin Che could only say, “I feel fine. It doesn’t hurt that much. But what does the cemetery up there look like? Is there even a public cemetery here? Why don’t I remember?”
The scenery here was beautiful and the air was enticing as well. It truly looked like a great place.
Gu Jingze said, “Our ancestral tomb is up there. The Gu family fixed up the park but the ancestral tomb is closed to outsiders. Thus, the path leading up to the mountain is blocked off and no one is allowed inside.”
“Wow… so you mean that this entire mountain is the Gu family’s cemetery?”
“That’s right.”
Lin Che really did not expect even the park surrounding the Gu family’s ancestral tomb to be so big.
But after thinking about it, there was no doubt that such a wealthy family would have a huge and majestic ancestral tomb.
