Chapter 165: A Carefree Girl
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The teacher looked at Lin Che and pondered carefully for a bit before recalling her. He had not seen her for more than ten years, so he nearly did not recognize her.
Of course, he remembered Lin Che. Back then, Lin Li and Lin Che were both in his class. However, very few people knew that Lin Li and Lin Che were sisters. He helped Lin Li bully Lin Che fairly often, mainly because Lin Che did poorly in her studies and was even an illegitimate daughter at home. He personally did not like Lin Che either. Which teacher did not like a student with a good family background, a clean record, and good academic results? A student like Lin Che whose parents never came for parent-teacher meetings and whose results were also so terrible was destined to stay in the last row until graduation.
However, he did not expect Lin Che to actually become a celebrity after ten years.
The fact that she could qualify for the drama academy was in itself dramatic enough.
He was a little regretful that he had treated Lin Che like that back then, especially when life proved to be full of ups and downs. This girl who had been constantly bullied back then was actually standing next to the second son of the Gu family, C Nation’s most powerful family.
Lin Che looked at Teacher Hu. Offhand, she really did not have a good impression of him. Her deepest impression of him was his lofty disposition and his blatant expressions of dislike towards her. Back then, it made the tender-aged Lin Che feel even more inferior for a long time.
Teacher Hu was looking at her humbly now. His face was full of obsequiousness. However, it made Lin Che momentarily feel like he had a split personality.
She looked at him and said politely, “Good to see you, Teacher.”
“Eh eh, good, good,” Teacher Hu said hastily.
However, Gu Jingze held Lin Che back with one arm, looked at Teacher Hu, and said, “Teacher Hu, I’ve often heard Lin Che mention your ‘special care’ towards her.”
Teacher Hu shivered immediately. He looked at the corners of Gu Jingze’s lips, which seemed to be lifted at a slight angle. Gu Jingze was clearly smiling but it made Teacher Hu feel a slight chill.
When Teacher Hu thought this, he said hastily to Lin Che, “Back then, I just knew that your future would definitely be very promising. That’s why I was very strict with you. I hoped that you would make something of yourself. Sure enough, it looks like I judged you correctly. Back then, your older sister was in our class too. Look, now she’s not as good as you. This is definitely related to the hard work you usually put in. Right now, you’re more famous than her and more capable as well. Clearly, you didn’t betray my hopes all these years. I’m really...”
Lin Li had come much closer to them earlier. Right now, as she heard Teacher Hu actually describe her in this manner from behind them, she was so angry that her lungs were about to explode.
Back in the day, she gave this teacher numerous presents and thereafter hinted at him to punish Lin Che properly.
Now, he dared to say that she herself was not doing as well as Lin Che?
Although these days, Lin Che appeared on television pretty often...
However, the entertainment industry was always unpredictable. She had definitely still not hit it big. Who knew if all traces of her would vanish tomorrow?
Lin Che looked at Teacher Hu and suddenly thought awkwardly that her hard work could not be separated from Teacher Hu’s disdain towards her back then.
Thus, when she was studying for the entrance exam for the drama academy, her results for cultural studies were a result of a spurt of real hard work. She did it precisely to show those people who looked down on her that she was not completely useless.
However, she really did not want to thank him for his “encouragement”.
Teacher Hu subconsciously began to feel even more flustered upon seeing Gu Jingze constantly stare at him. He lowered his head only to see that there was something on Lin Che’s shoe. He quickly asked, “Aiya, look. Why is your shoe dirty? I’ll help you clean it.”
Gu Jingze looked at the bodyguard at the side with a dark gaze.
Without a sound, the bodyguard inched forward.
Teacher Hu only felt his body lose its balance all of a sudden. He fell down directly and took a tumble in Lin Che’s direction.
Lin Che was shocked. She felt a large hand behind her pull her away firmly and precisely. It pulled her to his side in one swift motion. Because she knew it was him, she immediately felt extremely relieved.
However, Teacher Hu was not that lucky.
He almost took a fall. From the side, the school principal and chairman looked at him and both helped him up gloomily.
He hastily got up. Gu Jingze looked at him indifferently. He protected Lin Che with one arm while looking at Teacher Hu. “What’s going on?”
“I... I...” Teacher Hu rushed to apologize. He bent his very sorry figure with a red face and flustered manner.
Gu Jingze said, “I only came to your school to attend the celebrations on Ah Che’s account. I did it because I wanted to see exactly what kind of life Ah Che lived when she was young. But I didn’t expect that all of you would instead scare Ah Che to this extent.”
The school chairman quickly pushed Teacher Hu to the back and began to vigorously apologize to Gu Jingze and Lin Che. “President Gu, President Gu, he did it unintentionally. It was unintentional and not on purpose. We didn’t look after him properly. Look at him. He’s already in his forties and his body isn’t good either...”
“I don’t care if he’s old, handicapped, or sick. He scared Lin Che!”
Upon hearing this, the chairman’s face turned white from shock. He turned around and quickly said, “Take him away.”
Then, he said to Gu Jingze, “We will definitely deal with this matter strictly. Strictly. We will make sure he receives the punishment he deserves.”
Gu Jingze protected Lin Che with one arm for a long time before nodding his head coldly. “Alright. Since the school anniversary is a happy occasion, we don’t want to stir up trouble. I just don’t ever want to see a person like this appear in front of my eyes again.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Definitely, definitely.”
The chairman said frantically, “If you look over there, that’s our school hall. Back in the day, student Lin Che probably watched performances there. That’s our school’s oldest building...”
Thereafter, a row of people walked forward in that direction. As they walked, they began to look around.
As the people at the back watched Teacher Hu get taken away, they discussed the matter with clear understanding.
“This Teacher Hu got the punishment he deserved. Back then, he really accepted a lot of money. He’s corrupt and evil. How can he be considered an outstanding professor?”
“The crux of the issue is that he bullied Lin Che quite a lot back then.”
“Now that Lin Che has hit the jackpot, she simply brought her man here to help her exact revenge.”
“Is the school that afraid of him? The moment his eyebrows came together, they immediately took him away.”
“No question about that. If he so much as moves a hand, the school may not even be able to operate.”
“Gu Jingze has a really hot temper too.”
“Isn’t his temper hot just because he has the ability to back it up?”
“Anyway, Gu Jingze is really too formidable. Why does Lin Che have such good fortune? How did she meet Gu Jingze? She really hit the jackpot this time.”
Everyone looked on enviously as Gu Jingze left. They looked in that direction with their faces full of yearning.
Although Lin Che’s brain moved very slowly, as she looked at Gu Jingze, she understood his intention early on.
When they had been shown around enough, Gu Jingze said that he wanted to walk with Lin Che alone and take a look at what the school was like.
After everyone left, Lin Che sneaked a glance at Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze said, “Your school environment is still pretty good.”
Lin Che looked into the distance and nodded, “Yes. It’s not that big but after all, it’s an old school. Look over there. I used to go there and play in the water all the time. Shen Youran and I would go there together to do our homework and we would only go home when we finished. And over there too. We used to go there after our second period every day to do exercises. You probably haven’t done them before. That type of exercise is really funny.”
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che as she chattered noisily. She looked extremely happy as she pointed to one side and recalled her past memories.
All along, Gu Jingze had not understood why she was always so carefree. Now that he thought about it, it was perhaps because she had long gotten used to it. No matter how sad her experiences were, she could always smile when she recalled them and smile as she recounted them. What exactly had she been through when she was young...
