Chapter 1388 Why Are the Roads Sealed

The weather in Dubai was very hot.

The next day, filming continued.

By the time they returned to the hotel, Gu s.h.i.+yuan was so tired that she had fallen asleep. After a crazy day, even Lin Che was feeling tired.

That night, a few mothers came running to her happily.

“Lin Che, do you want to go out to go shopping? The children are asleep. We can just get someone to look after them.”

Lin Che took a look and said, “Alright, let’s go together. I’ll get someone to help me take care of Gu s.h.i.+yuan as well.”

Although they were told not to bring people with them to attend the show, everyone would still come with the people they worked with. Lin Che brought more people with her, both in the dark and in the open. Putting other people aside, Dong Zi had always stayed by her side. Right now, she would be able to leave in peace with Dong Zi staying behind to take care of the child.

The group headed out. They pa.s.sed by Cheng Huanhuan’s room, but no one called her.

They headed straight for the mall and started a shopping spree.

Women’s ability to shop was predictable. They bought a lot, charged a lot of money to their credit cards, and their hands were all filled.

After shopping for a while, they planned on heading to another mall to continue.

As Lin Che’s English was good, she was treated as a translator and had been helping to ask for directions.

When they had just arrived outside the mall…

Lin Che saw a car that stopped by the roadside.

She unknowingly stopped in her footsteps, and then saw someone getting off the car. Who could it be other than Gu Jingze?

He had said that he would come and meet up with her, but he had to settle the matters on the other side and thus, he would arrive later.

Not only was he here, but he had also managed to find Lin Che without any problems.

Lin Che smiled. When she saw Gu Jingze, she felt that everything was fine and she could be at ease now. She wanted to head over quickly but recalled that she had other companions with her.

The other mothers saw Gu Jingze and recognized him.

They were all surprised, and all threw a yearning glance at his good looks.

After feeling envious for a moment, they quickly said to Lin Che, “Go on, go on. He’s here, so we won’t be holding you up. There’s no need to care about us. We’ll be able to go back even if we don’t know English.”

Lin Che smiled apologetically, and her face flushed up a little when she saw their teasing glances. She then hurried toward Gu Jingze.

Under everyone’s envious gazes, Lin Che got in Gu Jingze’s car.

Gu Jingze took her hand and said, “Come on, I’ll bring you back first.”

“s.h.i.+yuan has fallen asleep. I got someone to help to look after her.”

“I know. I just came from there.”

Lin Che said, “There are two more days of filming. What about you? What do you need to take care of here?”

“I’ll go settle them after you’re gone.”

The two of them returned to the hotel. The other staff members could be easily seen, and when they saw that Gu Jingze had come, all of them quickly backed off to the side. However, they continued to cast curious gazes on the two of them.

The next day, Lin Che continued with the filming.

Gu Jingze went off to settle his matters.

However, when the shooting was over that night, a car stopped by the door.

Lin Che walked over and saw that the man who had alighted was someone she knew.

It was that butler from the palace.

The staff members were still complaining, “What car is this? How can they come in just like that?”

Someone quickly whispered, “It belongs to the royal family. They are permitted to park anywhere.”

The staff member saw that it was a Ferrari.

He quickly shut up but saw that Lin Che had walked over.

“Miss Lin, the First Prince is inviting you to attend a dinner banquet at the palace.”

Everyone felt envious when they heard this. Lin Che was being invited to attend a banquet at the palace.

How cla.s.sy.

However, Lin Che frowned and said, “I’ve already said that I’m here for work. I’ll pa.s.s on the banquet.”

“Mr. Gu is also there. Are you really not going?”

“I’m placing my work first, so I won’t be going.” Lin Che insisted.

The butler let out a snort. “Alright then. The invitation is late and the First Prince said that you must go. If we weren’t successful in the invite, we might need to use some other method.”

Lin Che then saw that there were people at the back wielding guns and gradually getting closer.

Lin Che’s eyes moved, and she could only say, “Alright. I’ll get someone to send the child back and then I’ll leave with you.”

“Alright. Please go ahead.” The butler smiled warmly and put up an inviting gesture.

Lin Che could only get someone to bring the child back first.

Under everyone’s surprised gazes, she got in the royal family’s car.

“Lin Che is so amazing to be attending a banquet at the palace.”

“Moreover, the royal family had sent people to personally pick her up.”

“She only agreed to go after being urged for a few times. What an imposing disposition.”

“Look at her. That’s what someone from a rich and influential family is really like. She can throw her weight about even in front of the royal family, yet she didn’t even act haughtily in the circle. This is what a big shot really is like.”

—

Lin Che watched anxiously as the car entered the royal palace.

Said had been waiting for her for very long.

After Lin Che alighted, she immediately asked, “Where is the banquet?”

Said shrugged. “If you wish, I can have our engagement party held tomorrow.”

“Haha.” Lin Che couldn’t help but say in contempt, “What do you fancy about me? I’ve already said that I’m married and have two children. It’s impossible for there to be anything between us.”

Said squinted his eyes and looked at her. “There hasn’t been anything I want that I couldn’t get. Gu Jingze isn’t the same as who he was in the past. Do you think that he still has the capability to fight with me?”

Lin Che let out a cold snort, “I don’t wish to repeat on the same problem. What do you want now? To fight for me? To force me? Do you think that you’ll be able to get me just from forcing me?”

“No, of course not. But after Gu Jingze dies, I’ll use even more time to slowly win your heart.”

Lin Che’s eye twitched.

Said snapped his fingers. “Bring Miss Lin to rest. There’ll be a good show over these two days, and you can take a good look. Wait until I become this country’s owner. Then, you’ll become this country’s queen. I don’t believe that you can still reject me then.”

Lin Che felt increasingly uneasy. What did this guy want?

Was he crazy?

It hadn’t been long after Lin Che left when everyone saw that the road back to the hotel had been sealed.

“What happened at the front?”

“I don’t know. All the roads leading to the palace have been sealed. It could be that something had happened there.”

“It can’t be… Lin Che had just gone to the palace.”

This isn’t something that ordinary people would be able to understand.

Everyone could only see that there were many people pressing on their horns, asking what was happening.

However, at this moment, a group of people dressed in military uniforms and fully equipped headed out, one after another.

There were also many other military soldiers following behind them, pa.s.sing by with a solemn expression.

They even seemed to have seen armored vehicles pa.s.sing driving past in the late night.

It was only now that everyone realized that something might have happened.

“G.o.d, what are we to do? Are we going to continue filming the show or are we going back to our country?”

“It’d be bad if the airport gets locked down and we can’t go back.”

“It’s a pity that Lin Che isn’t around. Since she knows the royal family, she’d definitely have news of what was going on.”
