“Qin Qing... does this Qin Qing really have feelings for Lin Che? He actually boosted her reputation!”

The netizens began to analyze the situation. They said that Lin Che seemed to be completely innocent and that it was Qin Qing who was so despicable that he used a woman’s feelings selfishly.

There were people even saying that although Lin Che and Lin Li were sisters, the two were vastly different upon close comparison; Lin Che was much more beautiful. It was, in fact, obvious that they did not share the same mother. Furthermore, Lin Li had constantly been selling her sob story for some time and it was really starting to get on everyone’s nerves. Then, someone said that Lin Li simply looked more manipulative than Lin Che. Any man would probably prefer Lin Che to Lin Li.

Of course, there were comments targeting Lin Che. Some people thought that there was no doubt that Qin Qing was despicable, but perhaps it was Lin Che who had seduced him first. After all, Lin Che was the child of the other woman. Since her mother had been a third party in someone else’s relationship, she had the same genes too!

However, at this precise moment, someone dug out a copious amount of information on Lin Che’s and Qin Qing’s shared past.

This included their middle school and high school graduation photos, photos of them at school events and their private photos. It was clear from all of these photos that Lin Che and Qin Qing had known each other from a long time ago. What’s more, they had known each other for a very long time, a much longer time than Qin Qing had known Lin Li.

This also proved that Qin Qing had been telling the truth when he said that he had known her before he knew Lin Li. It was only through Lin Che that Lin Li had gotten acquainted with Qin Qing thereafter. In addition, it was evident from the photos that Qin Qing had always been very caring towards Lin Che. The two of them had shared the same desk for many years without a break in between.

Subsequently, someone said that since Qin Qing had known Lin Che first, he was probably telling the truth.

Later on, someone discovered photos of Lin Che in middle school and high school. She had been extremely cute and pretty even then. Someone else had even changed the topic with a comment that Lin Che was already adorable back then and had the exact same face shape and eyes, so she was probably an all-natural beauty who had done no plastic surgery.

Now that there was this much information, Lin Che knew that Lin Li would not be able to turn the situation around.

Back inside, Yu Minmin said, “I didn’t expect Qin Qing to say that all of a sudden.”

She looked at Lin Che and sighed as she gazed at the calm expression on Lin Che’s face.

Qin Qing had only done it for her sake. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell.

Lin Che picked up her phone and walked out. She paused for quite a long time before calling Qin Qing.

It took a long time for Qin Qing to answer the call.

“Lin Che?” he said.

“Qin Qing. This incident... you didn’t have to do that.”

“Oh... you’re talking about this.” He chuckled and continued, “It’s alright. It’s the most I can do for you.”

“But it’s not the truth. You... why did you lie for my sake and willingly bear the brunt of criticism?”

“Even though it’s not the truth, I did create trouble for you by canceling my engagement, so it’s my responsibility anyway. Of course, I can’t sit around and do nothing. It’s alright. Just let me help you, Lin Che. No matter how useless of a man I am, at least I can still help my good friend out in this matter.”

What else could Lin Che say? Overwhelmed by emotion, she could only clutch her phone and thank him.

After Lin Che went back in, Yang Lingxin sensed that she still seemed to be feeling a little down. Yang Lingxin said to Lin Che, “Sister Che, right now everyone’s starting to criticize Lin Li and not you. Please don’t be unhappy anymore.”

Lin Che merely mustered a smile. “No. That’s not why I’m unhappy.”

Yang Lingxin said, “Furthermore, right now everyone is even saying that you’re definitely more beautiful than Lin Li. It serves Lin Li right for bringing up the matter for no reason. In the end, the photos were released and everyone is acknowledging the fact that she can’t be compared to you at all.”

The other two were not speaking at all. Yang Lingxin thought of Qin Qing and approached Lin Che. She said softly, “Sister Che, by the way, was the Second Young Master telling the truth? Does he really like you?” historical

Yu Minmin immediately smacked Yang Lingxin.

She was just so careless with her words.

Similarly, Lin Che merely looked at Yang Lingxin silently with her lips pursed.

Yang Lingxin could only splutter and try to explain, “I just think that Sister Che is such a nice person. It’s totally understandable for him to like her.”

“That’s enough. Go and tidy up the documents first. We’re leaving soon to eat. It’s about time to get off work soon, right?” While speaking, Yu Minmin lifted her wrist to look at the time. “I have to go first. You two go ahead and eat.”

“Hm. Okay.” Yu Minmin had been getting busier and did not often come to the company. Lin Che was already used to it.

So she only brought Yang Lingxin along for a casual meal at a nearby restaurant.

At the Gu residence.

Chen Yucheng looked at Gu Jingze incredulously. “I told you not to explain yourself. But I didn’t tell you to go there and immediately drag her out so roughly. I didn’t tell you to go there and rob the house. You should have said some pleasant words and cajoled her to come back.”

Gu Jingze breathed in deeply. He leaned back and looked out without saying a single word.

Chen Yucheng really had enough of Gu Jingze’s lack of tact.

However, it was, in fact, Gu Jingze’s first time experiencing such a thing.

If not for this, given Gu Jingze’s ability, every other woman would be docile towards him. Who else would dare to do this to Gu Jingze?

This Lin Che was really formidable.

She even forced Gu Jingze to come looking for her personally and kicked him home right away in front of so many people.

After speaking to Gu Jingze, Chen Yucheng left with a heart full of frustration.

Shen Youran trailed after him. Chen Yucheng said, “I’ve already tried to persuade him for you, but he has a really low emotional quotient, so I don’t think he’ll know how to carry out the plan.”

Shen Youran said, “I think he definitely wouldn’t betray Lin Che since he treats her so well. But he should at least go and coax her. He’s really too dumb. I get so anxious just watching them.”

“Occasionally quarreling is also a way of communication. Alright, leave it alone. Let’s go.”

Shen Youran followed Chen Yucheng back to the office. On the way there, they were asked to attend to a psychopath killer who had psychiatric issues along with biological ones.

After returning to the office, Chen Yucheng quickly changed his clothes and left together with Shen Youran.

The people in the office were still mumbling amongst themselves as they watched the two of them leave.

“Why has Doctor Chen been doting on Shen Youran so much? He brings her everywhere.”

“Yes. And on top of that, he even personally teaches her. Why would a person as busy as Doctor Chen be at her beck and call? Could it be... that there’s really something going on between them?”

“That’s such a pity. Doctor Chen has been single for so many years. Boo hoo, will he be snatched away just like that?”

Someone said enviously, “Assistant Shen is not an ordinary person. She’s Madam Gu’s best friend. Madam Gu was the one who recommended her for a job at our office. Doctor Chen is such a cold person and ignores everyone, but he teaches her. It’s not a coincidence. If you’re jealous, go get yourself a best friend like Young Madam.”

Lin Che was eating at a restaurant with Yang Lingxin.

However, she did not eat a lot because she was feeling down.

Yang Lingxin said, “Sister Che, please eat a little more. You look so skinny. It won’t be good if you continue eating so little.”

Lin Che said, “Alright, I’ll eat a little more. Don’t mind me and eat up. I just don’t have much of an appetite.”

Just then, someone beside them seemed to have realized that Lin Che was here.

“Lin Che, wow. You’re eating here too.”

Lin Che saw her fan and had no choice but to raise her head and smile.

The fan asked, “Can I take a picture with you?”
