Lin Che looked at his grave expression. Maybe it was so unbearable for him that he was going to get really angry.
She took out her phone and looked at it, still not quite willing to hand it over to him.
Gu Jingze did not say anything and grabbed her phone.
“Hey, what are you doing?” Lin Che asked seriously. She was unhappy that he took her phone just like that.
Lin Che quickly s.n.a.t.c.hed it back and said, “I don’t have his number. We’ve only been messaging through WeChat.”
She took her phone, opened the WeChat app, and said, “I can text him myself.”
As she said this, she thought about what to type, “Gu Jingyu, I don’t think it’s right of you to dupe your audience. Your Weibo post is too misleading. Your fans think that you’re in love but that’s not true at all. I think it’s best that you tell the truth.”
Gu Jingze frowned while she typed. One moment, she paused, and the next moment, she was all serious. Deleting, typing, and hesitating. He impatiently grabbed her phone to look.
“Hey, what are you doing?” she said as he raised his brows at her message.
“This is a rejection? You’re having a discussion with him,” Gu Jingze glanced at her.
“Well…” Lin Che did not want to come out too strong. If she offended Gu Jingyu, she would not know what the future held for her.
Gu Jingze snorted and said, “I’m going to help you write.”
“You… ”
Lin Che knew that he would not do it nicely, so she quickly took her phone.
Gu Jingze stood up tall and raised the phone up high with his arms.
The pet.i.te Lin Che jumped up and down, trying to reach for it.
Gu Jingze stood there calmly and quickly typed, “Gu Jingyu, I’m actually already married. I love my husband very much. Your actions make me feel like I have let him down. So, please don’t post such things that will easily mislead people and cause rumors. It is for the good of both of us.”
Lin Che saw him write a long paragraph, but it was too blurry so she couldn’t make the words out.
Lin Che grew anxious and said, “Gu Jingze, give it back. I want to do it myself. I don’t need your help.”
Gu Jingze did not listen and continued typing furiously.
As soon as Gu Jingze pressed ‘send’, a reply came from Gu Jingyu.
It read, “Are you seriously lying about being married just to avoid me?”
Gu Jingze’s lips curled up, “Do you want me to show you the certificate? I’m really married and it really disgusts me that you would get me involved.”
“Disgusted? In what way am I not being good that it makes you hate me? I thought you told me before that I was your highly-respected senior?”
She had actually told Gu Jingyu that?
Gu Jingze could not help but sigh as he replied, “Those words were just to compliment you. I thought you would understand. Since you decided to drag me into this mess, don’t tell me you actually like me?”
“Now that you mention it, I do quite like you.”
“…” Gu Jingze almost wanted to puke.
This Gu Jingyu was really asking for a death wish.
Gu Jingze directly replied, “Sorry, I don’t like your type. I like my husband’s type, a man who makes me feel secure. From the moment I saw him, it was love at first sight. I had to marry him. I have no interest in anyone else and especially not your gigolo type.”
He had just sent the message when Lin Che climbed up the table behind him. Her arms wrapped around his neck as she climbed onto his back and tried to s.n.a.t.c.h her phone back.
“Gu Jingze, give me my phone back!” she shouted and grabbed his hand.
Gu Jingze was not finished. He wanted to see what Gu Jingyu’s reply would be but he felt that Lin Che had become so anxious. She bit his arm.
Pain filled Gu Jingze…
This d.a.m.ned idiot woman actually bit him!
He shouted and released the phone in his hand. It fell on the floor with a loud thud.
Lin Che exclaimed, “Gu Jingze, I’m going to kill you!”
Gu Jingze felt that she was going to fall. Remembering that her leg was just recovering, he quickly grabbed onto both of them from behind.
She had just stopped using the wheelchair but she had to walk slowly. Had she already forgotten the pain?
He carried her on his back and refused to let her move, “You better be careful. What’s going to happen if you fell?”
Lin Che was too busy looking around for her phone to listen to him.
She did not realize that her gold and silver necklace was grinding on his back. He felt her tender bosom press against his body.
So obvious…
“Gu Jingze…”
“Don’t move! Calm down!” Gu Jingze’s body grew hot. He felt himself tightening up.
“No, I don’t want to! Gu Jingze, you had no right to s.n.a.t.c.h my phone and drop it… You must pay for it!” she demanded. Even though she had her arms around his neck, he could not help but feel his body tremble. Only then did they realize…
She was leaning against him, his hands firmly supporting her b.u.t.t and his shoulders tense. Her chest was pressed against his back and her face brushed against his cheek. She was right beside his ear and she could smell the clear, masculine cologne from his neck.
She immediately let go and coughed awkwardly.
She did not mean to do that…
Gu Jingze finally let her go as well. She stood on the ground, too awkward to look at him in the eye.
Gu Jingze felt better. His heart, which was initially racing, finally calmed down. He looked at the woman in front of him. He really felt like strangling her.
Natually, Lin Che felt embarra.s.sed. She could still feel the warmth of his body.
It was so hot and so different from women.
It was lingering.
She suddenly remembered her phone that fell on the ground. She hurriedly picked it up and inspected it.
The screen had fallen apart.
She looked up, depressed and screaming, “Gu Jingze, you’ll pay for this.”
Gu Jingze looked at her indifferently and snorted while glancing at the screen.
She checked her WeChat to find a reply from Gu Jingyu.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know I was such an annoyance to you. I won’t disturb you anymore.”
The next line read, “And, I’m not a gigolo.”
“…” Lin Che was close to tears.
She scrolled up to read all the texts that Gu Jingze had sent. She turned to him and yelled, “Gu Jingze, I’m not shameless like you. I did not fall in love at first sight with you!”
“Why else did you drug me then? Was it not to get in bed with me?”
“…”
Lin Che did not know what to say…
Lin Che only thought about how she must have offended Gu Jingyu. What was she going to do about the next filming set or the promotions for the show? Not to mention, Gu Jingyu’s influential power was tremendous. If he wanted to take revenge, how was Lin Che going to live in the future?
