Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The reason why he was loved by many had little to do with his looks and background. It was because of the hard work he put in every day.

Los Angeles.
Lin Che went to eat with the young lady.
The Chinese food that the young lady ordered did not taste very delicious. Evidently, she had not been to C Country.
But as the young lady was tucking into the food, she said, “My dad doesn’t really enjoy Chinese food, but I love it.”
“Erm, the Chinese food here is slightly bland. It’s different from what we usually eat,” said Lin Che.
“Oh, is that so?”
“You will know when you visit C Country next time. By the way, what’s your name? You have never told me.”
“My name is Abigail,” replied the young lady.
“Wow, you have a beautiful name. What’s your surname?”
“It’s Wesley.”
“Oh, it seems like you are really born here. Don’t you have a name in C Country’s language?”
“No, I don’t. I am an illegitimate child. My dad dislikes my mother, so he wouldn’t let me come into contact with C Country’s culture.”
“Okay…”
While she was eating, Lin Che’s phone rang suddenly.
Upon seeing that it was Gu Jingze who called, she smiled and picked up the call right away.
“How is everything, Gu Jingze?”
“Hmm, don’t worry. We have brought Big Brother back from the island. He sustained some injuries but his life is not in danger. He’s currently in the hospital for treatment. Yu Minmin is there too.”
“Is it? That’s great… Really, most importantly is that he’s well.”
When Lin Che knew that everything was alright back home, she could finally put her heart at ease.
Abigail took Lin Che for a walk outside and asked her the reason she came to America.
Lin Che told her that she was supposedly here for filming but had run into some problems.
“I hit the lover of Hollywood tyc.o.o.n Henry, so she has been trying to hinder my work. I guess it will be difficult for me to continue filming for this movie,” Lin Che explained.
Then, Lin Che sighed deeply.
“Henry? The lover whom you are talking about. Is it Mary?”
“Oh, you knew about it too?” Lin Che looked at her with an astonished look and thought, She lived in Los Angeles. It would not be a surprise if she heard about it.
“Ha, so you were the one who hit her,” Abigail continued, “I was still wondering who had the guts to hit her, I didn’t expect you to hit her.”
Seeing how excited she was and even looked very interested, Lin Che asked, “What? Did the news spread so quickly already?”
Using her hands to cup her chin, she paused for a moment before saying, “Don’t worry. She won’t make things difficult for you. I will go and talk to her.”
“What? You know Mary?” asked Lin Che.
“Yes, this is a coincidence. I got to know her recently. She may be here soon as Henry is having a party on the yacht ahead. Come, let us go over.”
“Are you sure about this? Someone stopped me just now.”
“Don’t worry. You have me. They will let us through.”

Mary told Qin Wanwan that Henry would be on the yacht by the sea and she could take her to meet him.
Qin Wanwan was delighted upon hearing that. Mary was giving her a lot of respect by bringing her there. At the same time, Qin Wanwan was very keen to know this Hollywood tyc.o.o.n. She thought to herself, If she gets to make some connections with him…
She did not need to worry about her career in Hollywood and she would also gain a reputation back in C Country.
Besides, she would also be seen as meeting international standards. Back home, if your boyfriend was someone who was known internationally, the big brands would deem you as fas.h.i.+onable. Although Henry had many lovers, he was not married. If she could make him her boyfriend, many would be very envious of her.
It did not cross her mind that she would be betraying Mary. She simply went along with Mary to the beach happily.
When they entered the yacht, Mary told Qin Wanwan, “Henry is currently with the Wesleys. You might also get to see that girl later.”
“Is that so? But she doesn’t seem to like me,” Qin Wanwan said.
“Don’t mind her. That’s her personality. She doesn’t have any preference.”
“Alright then.” It did not bother Qin Wanwan. Besides, she did not think that she could befriend someone of such a high status. She wanted to leave a good impression to Mr. Wesley so that he would give her an international endors.e.m.e.nt contract. That would be great but if she did not manage to get it, she would not mind too.
Her target was the bachelor, Henry.
In the yacht, there were some people drinking and playing cards.
“Henry,” Mary called out.
Henry raised his head and signaled them to come over with a smile.
“This is Qin. I have mentioned her to you before,” said Mary.
Henry lifted his head to see Qin Wanwan casting amorous glances at him. She stood there, looking very shy. She was very different from the superstars there in America and Henry thought that she was special. He broke into a wide grin and told her, “That’s great. We are short of hostesses and both of you came in time.”
Smiling to the man in front of him, Henry said, “Mr. Wesley, what do you think of this oriental beauty…”
Wesley lifted his head to take a look but before he could speak, a person came skipping towards him happily and called out, “Daddy, I brought a friend here to play.”
She ran over and put her hands around Wesley’s neck.
Wesley could not refuse. He simply looked at her dotingly and said, “Alright, do whatever you want.”
Qin Wanwan was annoyed and thought, Seriously, why did that girl appear at this moment. How unlikeable!
“This is the friend whom I have mentioned to you. She helped me when I was in France. I just found her,” the young girl said.
“Is that so? Great, she came as well? Can you bring her over to meet Daddy?”
“Of course.”
She ran out quickly, Wesley smiled and said, “It’s really tough to discipline children nowadays. If you don’t give in to her, she’s going to walk out of home again. I am really afraid of that.”
“I don’t think so. Abigail is very brave. She spent three years alone and nothing happened to her. Like father, like daughter, isn’t it?”
“Haha, that’s true. It’s also a form of training for her. She even led a group of followers, so I’m just glad she didn’t starve herself to death.”
Everyone laughed. A child raised in a family like this might even be more willful than her. Who can tame the child?
Then, Abigail’s voice could be heard again.
“Follow me, come quickly. Lin, my father is inside.”
Qin Wanwan heard her speaking in C Country’s language and turned to see who it was.
The people turned their heads towards the door and saw Abigail pulling Lin Che strongly. Lin Che took a glance at the people in the room before walking in slowly.
Lin Che!
Qin Wanwan thought she had seen wrongly but there was no mistake.
Lin Che was dressed casually without makeup, which made her looked very healthy and clean. With the suns.h.i.+ne of Los Angeles reflecting on her face, she appeared to be energetic and full of life.
Henry froze at that moment.
When Mary saw who it was, her face turned green.
The next moment, anger rose within her and she charged towards Lin Che.
“You… It’s you again. You still have the cheeks to come here…”
