Chapter 475: I Just Don’t Want Any Other Man To Be Around You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When he released Lin Che, her lips were moist and she looked disheveled even though nothing had in fact happened…
Gazing at her, Gu Jingze thought to himself that this should teach her not to go and visit Situ Qiong.
The moment Lin Che got onto her feet, she felt that something was wrong. She looked down only to see that her chest…
“Gu Jingze, you…”
Gu Jingze chuckled and stood up as if nothing had ever happened.
He touched his wrist and went in to change his clothes.
Lin Che merely stomped her foot behind him. “Gu Jingze, you… just you wait.”
However, she definitely could not visit Situ Qiong in this state.
Right now, she did not even want to go outside anymore. Anyone would speculate upon seeing the marks on her body.
She was left with no choice but to call Yu Minmin as she leaned against the wall.
Yu Minmin said, “Don’t worry. Situ Qiong is fine. He just has a few small abrasions. How about Gu Jingze?”
“He’s fine too. But I won’t be able to take a look at Situ’s condition. Do me a favor and visit him on my behalf.”
“No problem. I’ll do it for you. Just go and coax your husband properly.”
She did not want to coax him…
Lin Che looked down gloomily at her body.
She could only scold him in her mind. This two-faced demon. He was too evil. He must have done this to her on purpose!

News of the fencing match between Gu Jingze and Situ Qiong elicited a huge reaction in their circle.
No one knew why the two of them had suddenly wanted to compete. But everyone was lamenting the fact that there had yet to be a winner.
Nevertheless, no matter who won and who lost, everyone already knew that Gu Jingze indeed lived up to his reputation as a formidable and enigmatic man. There was nothing that could stump him.
Lin Che returned home. When Situ arrived at his house, he called Lin Che and asked, “There’s nothing wrong on your end, right?”
Lin Che nodded and said, “Everything is fine. Why are you still worrying about me? How about you?”
Situ Qiong said, “I don’t feel well at all because I didn’t win against him in the end.”
“Hey. I’m asking you about your injuries.”
“Me? I’m fine. Thanks for your concern.”
Before Lin Che could even end the conversation, someone s.n.a.t.c.hed the phone from her hand.
Of course, Gu Jingze was bothering her again.
Lin Che quickly tried to get her phone back from Gu Jingze. “Gu Jingze, what are you doing? Give it back to me.”
With her phone in hand, Gu Jingze ended the call first before moving elsewhere to delete his number.
Seeing this, Lin Che got anxious. “Gu Jingze, what are you doing? You can’t delete my contacts.”
Lin Che jumped in to try to take her phone back, but Gu Jingze had always been tall. The moment he raised his hand, she could forget about s.n.a.t.c.hing her phone.
She could only continue looking at Gu Jingze. “Gu Jingze, you- you- you. Just you wait.”
Without hesitation, Gu Jingze first blocked the number before deleting it.
He only threw Lin Che’s phone directly to her after doing this.
When Lin Che caught her phone and looked at it, the contact was gone…
She said furiously, “Gu Jingze, you’re way too overbearing.”
Gu Jingze sat down with a dignified air. He flipped a book open and said, “No problem. It’s my responsibility as your husband.”
“…”
What?
Lin Che said, “I’ve told you that there’s nothing between me and Situ Qiong. Do you think everyone is as coveted by women as you are, to the point that there’s one at every turn?”
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che.
She was so confident that no one would be interested in her.
He said, “You fool. No man would be nice to a woman for no reason.”
“Why not? You have to trust that there are still good people in this world, you know?” Lin Che said.
Gu Jingze said, “If a man treats a woman well, he can only be thinking of one thing: that he wants that woman. There’s nothing else that can explain it!”
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze. “But… but you’re really good to me too.”
“…”
Gu Jingze leaned in closer and looked at Lin Che. “That’s right, so it means that I want you…”
“…”
Lin Che pushed him aside immediately. However, Gu Jingze nevertheless went closer and pushed Lin Che down.
Having seen the two of them quarreling earlier, the maids had already tactfully left. Even if something happened, they would be able to ring any of the bells that were all around the house.
Gu Jingze was pressing Lin Che’s entire body against the couch. Then, Lin Che heard him say, “You’re not allowed to get close to any man, no matter who it is.”
“You… why are you such a ****. This world is made up of only men and women. You don’t want me to get close to any man… it’s not really possible.”
“No matter what, I won’t allow that.” He tugged roughly at her clothes. “It would make me angry.”
“Then, what if we’re just friends…”
“I won’t allow it even if you’re just friends.”
“Then, how about as co-workers?”
“I won’t allow that either.”
“Hey. How is that possible?”
Lin Che protested.
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che through lidded eyes. He knew that it was impossible. As she had said, there were only men and women in this world. It was impossible for her to work and interact only with women.
However, what could he do? If he saw any man approach her right now, he would just think that that man had ulterior motives.
“There’s no other option. Whatever the case, I get angry whenever I see it happen. I can’t help it either…”
Lin Che’s heart thumped under his deep gaze.
Her heart also softened considerably.
No matter what, he was just jealous.
No matter what explanation he gave, she also understood that he was simply jealous.
When she thought about it this way, she was no longer unhappy. She merely looked at him with her lips pursed. Unknowingly, she had already wrapped her legs around his waist.
However, at this moment…
Lin Che’s phone began to ring.
Gu Jingze frowned and felt completely disappointed.
Lin Che quickly stood up and said, “Wait, where’s my phone? I have to pick up the call.”
Gu Jingze took a look at her phone. It was Yang Lingxin.
With a slightly angry expression on his face, he handed Lin Che’s phone to her unhappily.
While Lin Che was answering the call, he gently hugged her from behind.
“Little Xin, what’s up?”
“Sister Shuhai will be missing one of the promotional events for the film. They’re asking if we can replace her. Sister Che, do you think you can make it?”
Lin Che checked her schedule and said, “Alright. I can make it. ”
Everyone had a part to play in promoting the movie. It was entirely un.o.bjectionable for her to replace someone who could not make it.
—
It was soon time for Lin Che to partic.i.p.ate in the program. Yang Lingxin went along with her.
Because Lin Che was here on sudden notice, while she was backstage, she quickly scanned the questions that would be asked later.
Yang Lingxin said, “Sister Yu hasn’t been able to come to work recently, so she handed some matters over to me. Sister Che, I don’t have much experience, so if I do anything wrong, be sure to tell me.”
“Don’t worry. You’re doing very well. I’ll a.s.sist you.”
“Thank you, Sister Che. If not for this chance that you’ve given me, I wouldn’t be able to learn so much either.”
“It’s nothing. Everyone starts at the bottom.”
Lin Che was talking when she felt a sudden pain in her stomach.
Yang Lingxin asked, “Do you need to use the toilet? Why don’t I go with you?”
“Hn, alright.”
The two of them went to the toilet together while the Gu family’s bodyguards waited outside.
Yang Lingxin was still saying, “I thought that a manager only had to settle logistics. But it turns out that there are so many things to be done. It’s such a difficult job and a complicated one at that. I really have to work hard to learn the ropes.”
However, at this moment.
Suddenly, Lin Che felt something black cover her head directly.
“Ah…”
