I…
Gu Jingze’s voice relaxed.
I was indeed worried that you would do something wrong. But since you’ve already clarified, of course, I believe you.
Mo Huiling only said grievously upon hearing this,
Of course I wouldn’t do that. After so many years, do you still not know me? Even stepping on an ant and killing it usually makes me sad for so long. How can I do anything bad?
Gu Jingze put down the phone and hoped in his heart that he was just thinking too much.
It was just that when it came to matters involving Lin Che, he would subconsciously overthink a little.
After he went out, Gu Jingze saw that Lin Che was still here and said,
If you can reject it, just give up on this commercial.
Lin Che said,
Forget it. Since I’ve already signed on, it will create a lot of trouble for the company as well if I breach the contract. In any case, it’s just a commercial. Furthermore, what can Miss Mo do, right?
Gu Jingze looked at her meaningfully. In the end, he still nodded silently.
By the way, I still wanted to tell you that your school is having a celebration the day after tomorrow. Surely you’re going to go there and attend it?
What school?
Your primary school.
Huh? How did you find out about it?
Someone came and told me.
Lin Che was still perplexed but she looked at Gu Jingze and said,
From what I remember, I think it’s the 50th-anniversary celebration. But I’d rather not go.
Why?
They didn’t invite me either. What fun is it for me to go alone?
Since it’s your primary school, I want to accompany you to take a look,
Gu Jingze said.
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze in surprise.
Ah, why?
I still don’t even know what you were like in your younger years. I want to go and take a look.
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze in astonishment. She lowered her head and smiled while pinching her own hands.
I was very silly when I was in primary school…
Hn. I can tell. I don’t think you’ve improved that much now either.
…
Lin Che did not particularly remember what her primary school was like. She only remembered the beautiful pond beside the school. She and Shen Youran often went there to play. She also remembered the long and narrow path with two rows of poplar trees lined on each side. During the summer, there was an expanse of green above.
In primary school, Lin Che was already doing poorly in her studies. She probably did not have any standing in her teachers’ hearts. Nothing good ever happened to her. On the other hand, she always had a part to play in punishments whether it was standing still or copying essays.
In no time, Gu Jingze drove Lin Che to the school entrance.
The primary school was fifty years old but it still looked the same today as it did before. However, it had been completely repainted and the colors looked slightly more vibrant.
When they entered the school, they saw the various decorations that had been put up for the celebration. It was bustling with noise and excitement and people were everywhere. There were notable alumni and sponsors, and even several leaders of B City of varying importance.
The moment Gu Jingze stepped down from the car, the team at the entrance came up to welcome them.
Gu Jingze got down from the car and Lin Che followed suit as well.
Welcome, Mr. Gu.
It’s really a great honor for Mr. Gu to attend our school’s 50th-year-anniversary celebrations. Mr. Gu’s arrival brings light to our humble school as well.
Many famous people have attended our school. This includes several key figures in politics and business right now, and even movie stars and business elites. These people are all the pride and glory of our school.
Gu Jingze calmly took Lin Che’s arm beside him.
That’s right, I know. Lin Che also graduated from your school; that’s the reason I wanted to come and take a look.
Only then did all of the board members of the school notice Lin Che who was following beside them.
It took them a long time to react. They smiled and said,
That’s right, that’s right. Student Lin Che is also a notable alumnus of our school. We were planning to invite her back and hang her name on our honor roll.
Lin Che felt that all of them probably did not remember at all that a poor student like her was even a student at the school.
Inside, a row of people ushered Gu Jingze and Lin Che in.
Numerous alumni who had been invited looked over at the same time as well, wondering who had arrived.
Lin Li was one of them too. She happened to have been invited back as a notable alumnus.
It was because the Lin family was no ordinary family in the first place. For so many years, they had donated significant sums of money to the school. Thus, when Lin Li studied here, everyone looked after her well. Now that she had become a celebrity, naturally she was immediately invited back as well to maintain the school’s image.
However, at this moment she looked over there and saw many people were surrounding the entrance and looking on. She was still feeling confused when a classmate who had just been chatting with her suddenly asked,
Eh. Exactly who arrived?
Another person said,
You didn’t know? Gu Jingze came today.
However, when Lin Li heard this, she immediately raised her head. Her senses were jolted instantly and she looked over directly.
There’s no way that Gu Jingze graduated from this school, right?
Of course not. He was homeschooled by a private tutor since he was young. He only went overseas to study when he was older.
Then, why did he come?
It looks like he came together with Lin Che. Do you still remember Lin Che? The student in our class who did very badly in her studies?
Of course I remember her. She was always sitting in the last row and everyone ignored her completely.
That’s her. She’s the currently-famous celebrity Lin Che. Could it be that you don’t watch television?
What? She became a celebrity?
Lin Li could not continue listening. She clenched her hands gloomily but clearly saw Lin Che following by Gu Jingze’s side. The two of them had their arms intimately hooked together. They attracted everyone’s gazes as they walked in together. The noisy crowd that followed them included their bodyguards and security officers dressed in black. It made everyone feel that their formation was really powerful.
He proved himself to be the Gu Jingze. Wherever he goes, there are special security guards everywhere. If Lin Che is actually together with him, hasn’t she hit the jackpot?
Yes. I couldn’t tell at all that she was so formidable when we were younger.
Luckily, I never bullied her when I was younger. Otherwise, what would I do now?
Lin Li’s face darkened immediately. She looked over there with extreme jealousy. She sneered and rolled her eyes before leaving the crowd directly. She could not be bothered to continue listening to them talk about Lin Che.
The school staff quickly began to look Lin Che up. They hastily looked through the records and sure enough, Lin Che had graduated from this school.
The school chairman was so angry that he said to his subordinates,
What were you doing before this? You didn’t even know that Lin Che graduated from our school.
The subordinates said frantically,
At the time, she was not so well-known either. Didn’t she only get famous overnight this year? We probably just didn’t notice. Furthermore, Lin Che’s grades in primary school were really not too good. Look. All along, she didn’t really have any qualities deserving of special attention either.
I don’t care about all of these! All of you, go and check what class she was in during primary school and who was her form teacher. Even if you have to flatter her, you must flatter her so it sounds better too.
Sure enough, it did not even take a few minutes to bring the form teacher before Lin Che and Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze sat there with Lin Che beside him. The form teacher also found it difficult to believe that this beautiful and natural-looking young lady was actually the little girl who always sat in the last row in class in the past.
Lin Che, I was your form teacher in primary school, Teacher Hu. Aiya, it has been so many years since I’ve seen you. You really grew to be more and more beautiful. Back then, I really gave you a fair amount of punishment for your conduct. I’m sure you still remember.
Of course, Lin Che remembered.
However, before she had even spoken, Gu Jingze had already cast his cold gaze on this teacher.
Was this was the teacher who had wrongly accused Lin Che back then and made her stand in the trash pile?
Gu Jingze had always been a man who sought revenge for the smallest grievance. He felt extremely uncomfortable, especially when he thought about how Lin Che had been bullied at such a young age at her small height and with no one to help her.
