Chapter 626: Borrowing Yu Minmin’s Name
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yu Minmin froze. Upon closer look, it really was true.
It was probably because there were many people at night, so Gu Jingze’s men did not notice that the paparazzi was following behind.
Maintaining Lin Che’s privacy was harder now. After all, there were too many people trying to dig up her information.
Yu Minmin replied, “It’s okay. We can handle it tomorrow.”
Feng Shaoqing asked, “Minmin, did you go to the Gu residence today?”
“Yes,” Yu Minmin said.
“Oh. Was there some event with the Gu family?”
“Yes.”
“Right. You’re now an important subject of the Gu family.”
Yu Minmin replied speechlessly, “I’m an important subject of the Gu family? Your definition of an important subject is too shallow.”
Feng Shaoqing laughed and asked, “Aren’t you coming to my company to discuss advertis.e.m.e.nts? See you tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Yu Minmin went back to the photo to take a look. Thankfully, the paparazzi didn’t manage to take Gu Jingze’s face. They only managed to take a side view of Lin Che’s face. She would try to brush this off.
She searched the news. Sure enough, there were reports saying that Lin Che was seen attending a Gu family dinner.
It was already said that it was Old Master Gu Xiande’s birthday and only family members were invited to the dinner. n.o.body thought that Lin Che would also be there. They said that Lin Che attracted the attention of many rich heirs and was simply a magnet for them. Who would have thought that she would once again be linked to a rich family, and a super right one at that?
Was Lin Che entering a rich family?
Her fans saw the news and also began speculating.
Some said that it was very normal for female celebrities to follow wealthy families. They thought that Lin Che was more special, but she turned out to also be the same.
Some said that yet another female celebrity was going to be a birthing machine for the wealthy.
There were people who objected too. Some said, “Would you guys only be happy if she found a normal family instead of a rich one? If she found a normal person, you guys should ask how he matches up to your Lin Che.”
Some also said that if it was the Gu family, then wasn’t she with Gu Jingyu’s family? Perhaps Gu Jingyu invited her to dinner since she and Gu Jingyu had a very good relations.h.i.+p. Do not guess blindly. This only proved that Lin Che and Gu Jingyu’s bond was very strong.
Some also said, “You must not know who Lin Che works with in her studio. It’s Yu Minmin, the mother of the nation. What’s wrong with the nation’s mother bringing her own friend along to the dinner? You guys are really exaggerating this.”
But some were still envious and said, “It is so good to be a celebrity. You get to know all these elite people.”
Some also said that Lin Che was ultimately different from those celebrities. Looking at Lin Che’s list of contacts, each of them was shocking. Female celebrities were always linked to rich families, but only Lin Che could be the one female celebrity coming in contact with an elite family like the Gu family.
Yu Minmin read all these and was thinking whether to reply or not.
But she thought about it and continued speculating. Anyway, in a few days, these fans would find an explanation themselves. They didn’t need to think anymore. The explanation from these fans could probably be the most logical.
The next day.
Yu Minmin told Lin Che about this. Lin Che listened and her head felt light. She looked at the news and was appalled, “These paparazzi are really… They would even get sneaky shots of a private dinner like this.”
Yu Minmin said, “Anyway, you should be more careful. The paparazzi are probably keeping their eyes on you now. I’ve already got people to get rid of some and we have warned some of these companies. However, you’re famous now and there will be more and more people who will look at you. It’s inevitable.”
Lin Che nodded and said, “I will try my best to be more careful.”
Yu Minmin said, “Thankfully, Gu Jingze’s men are keeping watch. Their ability to tackle this is definitely stronger than others.”
“Yes. Oh right, are we going to the advertising company today?”
“Yes. We’ll sign the agreement and leave. We have other places to go later. Some of the publicity for Witch’s Diary will be published soon so you’ll still be quite busy.”
The two of them headed to the advertising company and went straight inside.
Lin Che chatted with Yu Minmin along the way. Unexpectedly, they saw Feng Shaoqing waiting there for Yu Minmin.
“Minmin,” he beamed and greeted her.
Lin Che looked at Yu Minmin strangely.
Feng Shaoqing greeted her very intimately, which puzzled Lin Che.
Yu Minmin quickly introduced him to Lin Che, “Oh, this is my cla.s.smate I told you about. He’s the young boss of this advertising company, Feng Shaoqing. Everybody calls him, Young Master Feng.”
Lin Che nodded and reached her hand out, “h.e.l.lo.”
Feng Shaoqing looked at Lin Che and was stunned for a brief moment. He thought that she looked better in person than on TV.
Especially when some celebrities looked a lot plainer in reality. She was different and indeed had a kind of subtle aura here.
However, she was still only a celebrity.
Feng Shaoqing was not interested in her.
He did not know that apart from being a celebrity, Lin Che was also the young madam of the Gu family.
He only focused on Yu Minmin. He smiled and said, “The agreement signing is this way. After you’re done, go over there and have a seat. If you’re not busy, you can have a cup of coffee here. Our company’s coffee is pretty good.”
Yu Minmin said politely, “Okay. You don’t have to be so formal with me.”
After they signed the agreement, Feng Shaoqing was still waiting for her. Yu Minmin could only say to Lin Che, “Wait for me. I’ll go sit over there.”
Lin Che nodded and nudged Yu Minmin, “Don’t tell me he’s interested in you?”
Yu Minmin said, “Go to h.e.l.l. That’s impossible.”
Lin Che replied, “It’s Young Master Feng. He seems pretty impressive.”
Yu Minmin said, “They are all young masters, but he is not even worth one finger of your Young Master Gu. Go away.”
Alright then. That was natural. This was only an advertising firm and Lin Che also did not know many big family businesses. However, she had indeed never seen this company before. It looked like it was not a very big family business in C Nation.
After Lin Che left, Feng Shaoqing led Yu Minmin to sit inside.
Yu Minmin went in and immediately saw many strangers seated inside. She froze.
Feng Shaoqing smiled and said, “Oh, I forgot to tell you. We have some people from the board of directors here today. Are you okay with it?”
How could Yu Minmin say anything? She could only smile at these strangers and reply, “It’s fine.”
Feng Shaoqing ushered her in and introduced her to them proudly, “Madam President, everybody wants to know you but probably only very few have seen you in person. It’s a coincidence that you’re here today.”
Everybody inside immediately stood up and greeted her.
Yu Minmin naturally felt uncomfortable deep down. What was Feng Shaoqing trying to do?
Feng Shaoqing looked at everyone’s respectful att.i.tude and polite manners towards Yu Minmin. He smiled as he tugged Yu Minmin to sit at the head position.
The members of the board of directors looked at Feng Shaoqing with praise. Their att.i.tude towards him seemed to change a little. “Who would have that that Young Master Feng would know Madam President personally?”
Feng Shaoqing puffed up his chest, “Yes, we’re old cla.s.smates.”
Yu Minmin smiled. After Feng Shaoqing said that, he whispered beside Yu Minmin’s ear, “Forgive me. They are from the board of directors and I can’t chase them away. Take it that you’re helping me out here.”
