“It’s me, Sister Yu,” she said.
Yu Minmin heard Lin Che’s voice and burst, “Hey, what’s up with you, Lin Che? I need to see you and I’m definitely going to kill you. Why didn’t you answer my calls? The company is after my life and I’ve been looking everywhere for you. I almost turned over the entire B district.”
Hearing Yu Minmin’s outburst, Lin Che closed her eyes and let her finish before replying, “I almost died and it was because of you!”
“Huh?” Yu Minmin paused and asked.
Lin Che continued, “It was all because of your call. I was driving at that time and then I…”
Lin Che briefly told her what happened.
Yu Minmin was shocked, “Are you serious?”
Yu Minmin asked sadly, “When did you learn how to drive? I didn’t know you were driving too. I’m sorry. How are you? Are you at the hospital? I’ll go over to visit you. I’ll take the blame from the company. We’ll forget about the celebration and I will give you some condolence money…”
Lin Che said, “Okay, okay, I’m not really blaming you either. You’re not a psychic, so you couldn’t have possibly known that I was driving. It was because I knew I was driving. Also, I’m still new so when I heard the phone ring, I stupidly wanted to answer when I really shouldn’t have.”
“Alright. You’re always so unclear. Eh, then what about your phone? What’s this number?”
“I’m using Gu Jingze’s phone,” Lin Che replied.
On the other end, Yu Minmin held her phone and looked at it in shock. She exclaimed in surprise, “No way. This… This is Gu Jingze’s number?”
“Hey, why are you yelling? My ear is going to fall off,” Lin Che rubbed her ear and said.
Yu Minmin said, “I actually know Gu Jingze’s number now? No way, I actually have Gu Jingze’s number now… Do you think this number would sell for maybe 200,000 per person? Will people buy this number? Actually, they definitely will. There’ll even be a queue for it,” Yu Minmin exaggerated.
Lin Che asked quietly, “You want to sell… what?”
“Of course I’m kidding. But you have no idea how valuable Gu Jingze’s number really is. I’m going to save it after this.”
“Ah…” Lin Che said, “You aren’t really going to sell it, right?”
“Of course not,” Yu Minmin said. “Even if I wanted to, I have to make people believe me. If they saw Gu Jingze’s name, they’ll probably think I just took some random number to bluff them.”
“Very well,” Lin Che proceeded to tell Yu Minmin that her injuries were only minor and she would be able to go back home. Yu Minmin told her about the next day’s plans and arrangements. She told Lin Che to rest well and take things slowly.
Lin Che was frightened; she needed to go back home and rest properly.
When she hung up, Gu Jingze was staring at her.
Seeing that she looked normal again, he said, “Stay at the hospital tonight.”
“No way. I’ve done the checkup and I’m fine. I want to go back home. It’s too noisy here and I can’t sleep.”
“We can go to a VIP ward. What if something happens to you at night…”
“I can just come back here. Gu Jingze, I really don’t want to stay here. I want to go home! I want to go home…”
Gu Jingze deliberated. Her accident was not a minor one after all.
However, Lin Che tugged at him and insisted, “I want to go back to our home, Gu Jingze. It’s so good to be home and we can do whatever we want. It’s too boring here.”
Our home…
Those words made Gu Jingze’s heart feel a little different. .
Home was strange to Gu Jingze.
To him, home meant the familiarity of family.
But a little home for the two of them… that was something that never crossed his mind.
Helplessly looking at Lin Che begging, he declared, “Fine, go home. We’ll go home to rest so stop being so annoying anymore.”
“Yes, yes. Definitely,” Lin Che immediately made a saluting gesture. Gu Jingze’s tense expression immediately relaxed as he laughed.
Gu Jingze was walking out with Lin Che when he received a call from Mo Huiling.
Lin Che saw the flas.h.i.+ng number. Gu Jingze was staring at it, not really wanting to pick it up. But then, Lin Che raised her brow and said, “Aren’t you going to pick it up? Otherwise, Miss Mo is going to get angry.”
Now that she lived so close by, what if she came over in her anger?
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che. Not picking up would seem like he was hiding something, so he might as well be open and answer the call. There was nothing he could not say anyway.
Thus, Gu Jingze picked up his phone.
On the phone, Mo Huiling immediately asked, “What happened, Jingze? I saw they moved the car down on the news and then there was nothing else. Is Miss Lin okay?”
Gu Jingze replied, “It’s fine. Lin Che is already going back with me. She’s well.”
“Ah… Really? That’s great. I was worried when there was suddenly no news of Miss Lin.”
Even though Mo Huiling sounded relieved, Gu Jingze felt that her undertone seemed like she was disappointed, perhaps because she previously said all those nasty words.
He knew that Mo Huiling didn’t like Lin Che, but she should not have gone overboard. Even if she disliked her, she should not curse and wish someone else to die.
Gu Jingze said, “Okay, if there’s nothing I’m hanging up.”
“Hey, Jingze, aren’t you coming to the hospital…” Mo Huiling hurriedly asked.
Gu Jingze asked strangely, “Why are you still at the hospital?”
Mo Huiling said pitifully, “I got into an accident. Of course, I should stay for them to observe me. Otherwise, what would I do if something happened at night?”
Gu Jingze took a deep breath and said, “Okay then. Rest well in hospital. Lin Che is traumatized so I’m not going to the hospital.”
“What?” Mo Huiling exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Jingze replied, “She got into a major accident and almost died. Okay? I’m hanging up.”
Gu Jingze immediately ended the call.
Lin Che did not expect Gu Jingze to say such things. She turned to Gu Jingze, “Won’t Miss Mo be angry if you don’t go accompany her?”
Gu Jingze said, “There’s nothing to be angry about. She only got an abrasion on her ankle; it’s nothing serious.”
“Abrasion on her ankle? Was it because of me?”
“Yes.”
Lin Che looked at him, “That Miss Mo must really hate me to death now.”
She thought, Miss Mo was so angry that she must have spoken ill of her.
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che, “Yes. She said you knocked her on purpose.”
Lin Che said quietly, “I… She ran towards me, okay? I was shocked.”
Gu Jingze glanced at the injuries on her body and sighed, “Initially, I wanted to ask you what happened. But seeing your driving skills and how you hurt yourself like this, I don’t need to ask anymore.”
Lin Che was stunned, “What do you mean?”
Gu Jingze patted her head, “With your driving skills, you definitely hit her by accident!”
“…”
