Sure enough, the news gradually died down over the next two days. However, the after-effects remained. Lin Che's Weibo page was still being flooded with visitors. Contrary to expectations, her fan count had been steadily increasing so at least she had not been scolded for nothing. She also had some fame as an actress for the first time, which counted as her having some presence for the first time.

Right at this moment, Lin Che's stepmother suddenly gave her a call and said to her, "Your elder sister's engagement party with Qin Qing is this weekend. You can set aside some time to come, right?" Lin Che's heart stopped.

Were they going to be formally engaged?

Lin Che's hand, which held her phone, trembled slightly. Still, she forced herself to put up a pretense of calmness. She said to Han Caiying through the phone, "Why do I need to go? Stepmother, are you inviting me right now?"

Of course, she did not want to go. She did not want to return home to see the distasteful faces of her family members, nor did she want to... see Qin Qing ultimately marrying someone else. Han Caiying snorted and said, "Why? You dare not to come? Could it be that you still harbor some feelings for Qin Qing? If that's the case, all the more you should come. Come and take a look so that it's easier for you to give up completely."

"Stepmother, I can't do anything about it either if you insist on putting it that way." Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Aiyo, is it just my words or is it actually what you're thinking inside? I see that you've really been working hard these few days to compete with Lin Li. You even went to cotton up to Gu Jingyu so that you could be in the headlines. What a pity that Gu Jingyu could not be bothered with you at all. It took him barely two days to push down the news. Lin Li's wedding this time will definitely be in the headlines. It'll easily give you some opportunity to show your face. Won't you come and freeload for the front page?"

As Lin Che listened to Han Caiying's words, she thought to herself that she had a really rich imagination.

Although she did not know if it was Gu Jingyu who had pushed down the news, she could confirm that Gu Jingyu was definitely not as Han Caiying had described.

Finally, Han Caiying said, "Anyway, it's up to you whether or not you want to come. If you really feel that you don't want to see Qin Qing marry Lin Li, then don't come."

Lin Che listened as she hung up the phone. She sat there and unknowingly fell into a trance for a long time.

She sat there until Gu Jingze came in and saw Lin Che staring blankly ahead. He walked over to her and said, "What happened? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze. "To be honest, I kind of sympathize with Miss Mo."

Gu Jingze's gaze was turbulent as he looked at Lin Che. He did not know why she had suddenly brought up Mo Huiling.
