Stephen was not upset that Gu Jingze left early. Instead, he even said to him, “President Gu, to be able to care so much about your own woman, it shows that you are a man with feelings. I like that very much.”
Gu Jingze smiled, “She is my wife. I made a promise to treat her well and such is my duty.”
“Haha, it’s so rare to see such a responsible man like you nowadays, President Gu. Especially in this circle.”
Gu Jingze only smiled plainly while Stephen looked at the people dancing outside and said, “Miss Lu is really not bad.”
Gu Jingze also looked at the people over there. He didn’t care much and returned his gaze back to Stephen.
Not long after, Lu Chuxia’s first song ended. The crowd applauded and Lu Chuxia greeted everyone. She looked inside, smiled sultrily, and walked in.
“Jingze, what are you doing over here? You haven’t attended this dance for so many years. Aren’t you going to partic.i.p.ate?” Lu Chuxia really wanted her first dance to be with Gu Jingze, but she was afraid that he would reject her. Thus, she specifically went to find a dance partner for him to see how well-liked she was here.
She was good at dancing and she was absolutely confident that she was definitely the dancing queen of this dance floor.
She lifted her skirt, pursed her lips, and looked at him as she said, “When you attended the gathering, I was still young so I never really came. After that, I always came but you were too busy and didn’t show up often. Now that we’re finally here together, why don’t you have one dance with me?”
Gu Jingze looked at her, “No, I don’t know how to dance.”
“I can teach you. You’re so smart that you’ll be able to pick it up in no time.”
“But I am injured and not in the condition to dance,” he said. Without giving her a chance to speak again, he turned to Stephen and said, “Mr. Stephen, the yacht is really nice, but can I request you move my room down a level?”
“Why? Is the upper level not good?”
“We can see the water at the lower level and my wife likes to look at the water.”
“Ah, I see. Alright. Since you’re so considerate for your wife, of course, I’ll accommodate you. I’ll send some staff to make the preparations for you.”
“Thanks.”
The water could be seen upstairs, but the windows downstairs showed the underwater world. He thought that Lin Che would like it.
Lu Chuxia heard this at the side and felt his coldness towards her once again. She couldn’t help but feel enraged.
When she becomes the dancing queen tonight, she would dance with him. She had to let him see how every guy would look at her in admiration as she got crowned as the dancing queen.
It was something that little n.o.body Lin Che could ever match up to.
At this moment, someone beside Gu Jingze whispered something.
Gu Jingze’s brows twitched a little. He nodded and got up to walk out.

Lin Che was still b.u.mping around aimlessly like a fly when she heard someone call from behind, “Lin Che.”
She turned around and saw Gu Jingze appear out of nowhere.
“Ah, Gu Jingze. I was looking for you.”
Gu Jingze looked around and led her to a quiet corner inside.
He put an arm around her shoulders as they walked. He said, “You should have told someone to inform me that you’re out and running about.”
“I just saw that it was already night and I wanted to come out and look at the sea. Who knew that there would be a dance event here? So I came to look,” she said.
Gu Jingze was watching her sleep at that time and thought about her stomachache during the day. He wanted her to get as much rest as possible, so he didn’t wake her up.
But now that she was actually here, he brought her in and said as they walked, “Why? Are you interested in the dance?”
Lin Che quickly said, “No way. I’m not interested. I was just curious, so I came over. I didn’t expect everyone to be dressed like that. I feel like I’m watching a movie.”
“Yes, tonight is retro dance night. They like to set the dance event to a certain decade and everyone dresses accordingly. Today, it’s a medieval dance event, so it’s more retro.”
“I see.”
—
Lu Chuxia saw Gu Jingze leave and quickly tried to find him.
Just then, she saw Gu Jingze bring Lin Che in at the side.
The two of them were inside, almost leaning against each other as they talked.
Lu Chuxia grunted. This Lin Che still had the cheek to turn up, and especially in such drab clothes.
Did she not see what everyone else was wearing in here?
—
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che and said, “Since you’re here, let me get someone to bring some clothes for you. You can change here.”
Lin Che nodded and watched Gu Jingze gesture for his attendant to bring some clothes.
Not long after, the clothes arrived.
It was a pale, pinkish purple vintage gown with a bare back. The top was layered and the workmans.h.i.+p was intricate. A chain of silver-black lines traced the beautiful patterns, which were hand-embroidered on the dress. It made the dress look even more exquisite.
Lin Che wore it and the skirt cascaded down, leaving a slight trail behind her. Her ankle peeked out through the dress, revealing her high heels as well.
Lin Che looked at herself in the mirror and felt as if she became a rich lady in the Middle Ages. She laughed as she walked out for Gu Jingze to see, “How do I look, Gu Jingze?”
Gu Jingze turned around. His eyes narrowed as he looked at her dress.
Very beautiful.
He smiled and said to her, “You look great.”
“Really?”
“But it doesn’t look as good as what you wore during the day.”
“Huh?”
“The clothes that you wore while you were on top of me.”
“…”
Lin Che blushed. She looked at Gu Jingze and thought about how brazen she was to actually seduce him. She couldn’t believe it. She must have really gone mad to do such a thing.
“Idiot, don’t talk about that.”
Gu Jingze chuckled and said, “You were really daring at that time. Isn’t it too late to regret it now?”
He said, “Tonight, try wearing that again but don’t tie me up.”
He had been fantasizing about it for a long time. That feeling of personally taking that piece of seductive clothing off must be extraordinary.
Lin Che grunted and walked out first, ignoring him.
Just then outside, Lu Chuxia immediately saw Lin Che come out.
She looked at Lin Che’s dress. It actually looked so good on her body.
She pursed her lips and walked towards her. She lifted a leg and stuck it out.
Lin Che was totally unprepared and she walked too fast. Her eyes already saw it and she was immediately alert. She thought that even if she fell, she was not going to let Lu Chuxia off so easily. Thus, she also lifted her leg and stepped on Lu Chuxia’s ankle…
Lu Chuxia exclaimed, “Ouch!”
Lin Che also tripped and landed on the ground.
When Gu Jingze came out, he saw Lin Che on the ground and his eyes darkened.
