Mo Huiling decided that she absolutely would not let them announce their marriage.
Not only because her victory would be diminished...
It was because...
She simply could not accept seeing Lin Che in a wedding gown beside Gu Jingze.
That position should have been hers!
Thinking about Lin Che appearing like that, she felt disgusted.

After Gu Jingze left, Mu Wanqing also came to see him numerous times.
Ultimately, she did not want Gu Jingze to have disputes with the family.
No matter what went wrong, these children were always united. This was also very comforting.
These siblings did not have any issues over money, unlike those other rich families. This also made her feel that being their mother was worth it.
Thus, the Gu family had been considerably peaceful for many years. But unexpectedly now, Gu Jingze who had always been aloof and work-focused had his own stubborn ideas. He had something he wanted even more. However, it was also because of this that problems started to arise in the family.
The three brothers were not much different in terms of wealth and power. However, they kicked up a fuss with the family because of love. With regards to this, she was rather worried as a mother.
Mu Wanqing came to the Gu residence. The maids told Mu Wanqing, "Madam, Mr. Gu already said that you should go home. He knows his limits and will not do anything out of the line."
Mu Wanqing heard this and could only sigh. She said, "Alright. Tell him that his big aunt might try to sabotage things because of this. Tell him to be careful."
Gu Jingze was an adult now and his thoughts were a lot more detailed than hers. He must have thought through it much more than she expected. She sighed and thought about Gu Jingze's behavior today. She could only sigh in her heart. This son of hers could actually become so strong for his own woman. Furthermore, he made both Gu Xiande and Gu Lanshan speechless. At the thought of this, she should feel proud.
In the study room.
Qin Hao entered and said, "Sir, Madam has already left."
Qin Hao looked up to see Gu Jingze standing by the window. He was holding his phone and looking at something.
Qin Hao hesitated and remained silent.
After a long pause, Gu Jingze then turned around, "Send people to keep watch on my big aunt's movements."
Qin Hao replied, "Yes..." He paused for a while and then said, "But Sir, I have something that I'm not sure if I should say."
"Say it."
"Since the child is not yours, why don't we find a chance to get rid of it? I actually know people in the Mo family..."
"No." Gu Jingze looked at Qin Hao."If the child is gone, then we will never know who it belongs to. I want the truth to be revealed. I want proof that the child is not mine. This way, Lin Che's life won't be implicated."
Otherwise, for years to come, people would say that Lin Che's husband, Gu Jingze, once had a child outside his marriage that was killed because of Lin Che.
He never cared about all this worthless nonsense, but how could he let Lin Che go through this?
Qin Hao froze and then nodded understandingly.
So it was for Madam.
That made sense. If it wasn't because of Madam, going by Sir's tactics...

After Lin Che arrived in Los Angeles, she rested in the hotel to adjust to the time difference.
She called Yu Minmin first to inform her of her arrival. After that, she went to sleep.
Yu Minmin hung up and heard Gu Jingming come in. She quickly packed her things and ran out.
Gu Jingming suddenly said, "There'll be a state visit later. You're coming with me."
"Huh?" Yu Minmin asked in surprise."State visit? What is that?"
"We need to make a last-minute trip to A Nation. Pack your things and we'll go."
"Ah... Wait, are you sure you want me to go? I..."
"Of course. You've been too laidback as First Lady. It's time for you to do something. Go get ready."
Without giving Yu Minmin a chance to reject, he ushered her into the bedroom.
Yu Minmin scratched her head. This was too sudden and she was still confused.
However, the maids already came in and started packing for her.
Yu Minmin could only ask the maids, "I don't need to speak a foreign language during the visit, do I?"
"Madam, A Nation also converses in Mandarin. Don't worry."
Oh, right. There are many Mandarin-speaking people there.
"Yeah, I'm so nervous. That is why..."
"Madam, relax. Mr. President will not let you be by yourself. With Mr. President by your side, why do you need to be nervous?"
Of course, she was nervous. More importantly, Gu Jingming had to look after her too. But based on past experiences, he would not care if she lived or died.
There was no other choice and they quickly packed up.
It was Yu Minmin's first time on a visit.
Gu Jingming entered the plane. The lineup of heads of state was naturally strong.
At the entrance, some media crew were outside taking pictures. The minute Gu Jingming appeared, the media immediately crowded outside. Some fans were also outside screaming.
Gu Jingming smiled slightly. He turned to look at the people and waved plainly.
The crazy fans behind screamed even louder.
Blocked by the bodyguards, a human wall formed.
Yu Minmin followed behind. She heard the media yelling, "Look! Mr. President took Madam President out with him today."
"Wow. Madam, Madam, have a word with us."
Yu Minmin always kept a low profile. After her marriage, she never appeared in front of the media. Thus, her occasional appearance made everyone call out to her.
Even with the national security bureau and presidential guards here, nothing could stop their enthusiasm.
Yu Minmin was feeling nervous. She never faced the camera before and always felt that she was rather inferior.
Especially when she stood beside Gu Jingming.
He was too perfect and it made people compare him with her, an average commoner who already had many flaws.
Just like many people said on the Internet. She could not match up to Gu Jingming and yet she became Madam President.
Actually, she knew it too. Thus, when another wave of people online said that this was true love, she thought that it was funny.
If it really was true love, then there would be nothing to match up to.
However, she knew that this was not true love.
Thus, it made her feel even more worthless because, in Gu Jingming's eyes, she was merely a tool.
And she also believed that she was actually just a tool.
The human wall continued to move. Gu Jingming held Yu Minmin's hand and smiled at her."Okay, say hi to everybody."
Yu Minmin looked ahead hesitantly. She didn't know how to.
Gu Jingming bent down.
People on the outside could only see Gu Jingming bend down slightly and go next to Yu Minmin's ear. They started cheering even more.
