Gu Jingze quickly let his staff prepare things for the wife and arranged their trip to Phuket Island.
Lin Che told Yu Minmin that she was going on a vacation with the family. Yu Minmin readily agreed and even asked where she was going.
Lin Che said,
Gu Jingze said it’s a Mid-Autumn Festival gathering. We’re going to Phuket Island.
Yu Minmin spoke over the phone,
Just look at other people’s events. A whole family holding an event at Phuket Island.
Lin Che said,
It’s my first time too. I’ve never been to Phuket.
Yu Minmin replied,
Okay, go have fun. Take it as a break since you’ve been working hard recently.
Lin Che looked up Phuket Island online and saw that it was extremely beautiful. She got excited as she never expected herself to be going to such places. She then went to prepare.
In the room, she was choosing all kinds of swimsuits and clothes, placing them all over the bed.
Gu Jingze walked in and saw her. He went up to her suspiciously,
Are you moving homes? Why are you taking everything out?
Lin Che looked up,
I’m choosing my clothes. Which one do you think is nice?
Gu Jingze asked,
You’re choosing for the vacation?
Yes, yes.
Just taking a few pieces will do. You don’t have to mull over it.
It’s my first time to Phuket. My first time! I’ve never been overseas before so of course, it’s different. Ah, I feel so high and mighty right now.
Gu Jingze said quietly,
Actually, Phuket Island is quite close by so it’s nothing special. There are many other islands that are much nicer.
Seeing get Lin Che so excited, Gu Jingze started to regret making such a rash declaration. If he knew, he would have planned to take her to a better place.
Lin Che replied,
Of course to you, it’s not good enough. But to me, it’s already really good.
Lin Che looked at the display on the bed,
In the past, our school had a spring trip to Thailand, but I didn’t dare tell my dad. He didn’t care and I didn’t dare tell my Stepmother too. Thus, I think the biggest city I have ever gone to is the S city…
Gu Jingze looked at her and thought for a while before saying,
If there’s a chance next time, I’ll take you around.
Lin Che looked up,
You probably already went around the whole world.
Gu Jingze pondered and said,
I have indeed been to many places, but I never really explored them.
Oh, were they all for work?
Yes.
Lin Che remarked,
That’s such a waste too. You’re rich so you clearly can travel around the whole world. It looks like your money is not easy to earn.
Gu Jingze replied,
That is natural.
He looked out the window and smiled. Then, he turned back and plainly said,
Reward and effort are truly equal. I enjoy life a lot, but my responsibilities hold greater importance. I have thousands of employees under me, after all. They are all depending on me for their livelihood. I’m responsible for their lives, their families, and I also have to be responsible for the entire Gu family.
Being responsible for a family’s ups and downs… Lin Che thought that must be very exhausting.
Gu Jingze was actually alone too, but he was carrying so much on his shoulders.
Gu Jingze snapped back to reality and looked at the swimsuits on the bed.
There were all kinds in bright colors.
Gu Jingze’s interest was piqued. He took a piece up to look.
Lin Che saw him pick up a tiny bikini and blushed. She quickly tried to snatch it back and said,
This is for swimming in the pool.
Gu Jingze smiled and snatched it back,
This looks rather nice. Take this.
Lin Che said,
I’m not taking it. I’m not wearing that.
Gu Jingze asked,
Why not? It looks nice.
Lin Che said,
Ah, I’m choosing my clothes; why are you chiming in? Go go go, get out.
Lin Che said as she pushed Gu Jingze out.
Gu Jingze grabbed her wrist and stopped her from pushing him. He took the bikini again,
Of course I want to choose.
He got close to Lin Che’s ear and whispered,
You’re wearing it for me to see, after all. I want to choose something that I think looks nice.
Lin Che’s face grew bright red.
Although they were the only ones in the room and there was no need to whisper, he intentionally went beside her ear to say those words in that voice.
It was like listening to mellow music; it was so pleasant with a hint of warmth.
Lin Che quickly pushed Gu Jingze away,
You’re so annoying. Who wants to wear something for you to see?
Gu Jingze pulled his face,
Who else are you wearing it for then?
I… I’m wearing it for myself. Can I not do that?
Gu Jingze laughed, not caring about her response. In the end, he said to her,
That piece looks very nice. It will definitely suit you. Bring it, you hear me?
I’m not bringing it! I’m not bringing it!
Lin Che hurriedly pushed Gu Jingze out. Gu Jingze smiled grimly and had no other choice but to walk out.
In the room, Lin Che gradually decided on the clothes she was going to bring and then her eyes fell on that bikini.
Her eardrums involuntarily echoed the voice of Gu Jingze.
It will definitely suit you…
As if enchanted, Lin Che unwittingly grabbed it and kept looking at it.
Did he really think she would look good in this?
Her face grew hot thinking about it but in the end, she decided to take that thing and tossed it into her luggage.
The next day, the Gu family already had the airport make arrangements. The whole family arrived at the private VIP lounge room in the airport.
When Gu Jingze arrived with Lin Che, Mu Wanqing was already there with the other relatives. She saw them arrive and quickly welcomed them.
Their luggage had already been brought in for them. Mu Wanqing came over and tugged Lin Che’s hand. She said,
Ah, you’re still so slim. Seriously, do you even get any fat?
Lin Che hurriedly said,
It must be my body type. I eat quite a lot.
Gu Jingze smiled beside her,
Yes, Mom. She eats more than me, but too bad that it’s all for nothing.
Lin Che retorted,
Whatever I eat turns into essence. I’m not like you where everything turns into fat. Hmph.
Gu Jingze replied,
Ha, you think I’m fat now?
You said it yourself first.
Mu Wanqing saw that the two of them had become much more casual with each other. She could not help but laugh along.
The plane was soon ready for boarding. The family lined up and boarded the Gu family’s private plane. After a few hours, they arrived at Phuket Island.
Below, Phuket Island had arranged for a welcome for the Gu family just like for any other overseas VIP guests.
When Lin Che disembarked the plane, she saw an entire welcoming team outside and was shocked.
But then again, the Gu family was the number one biggest family in C country. Receiving this kind of treatment was imaginable.
Lin Che stood beside Gu Jingze and asked in surprise,
We’re not here for some diplomatic meeting. Is there really a need for such grandeur?
Gu Jingze said,
I didn’t inform them, but they probably found out anyway. Let’s go. No one will follow us once we get to the resort.
