Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as Lin Che looked away for a split second, Gu Jingze’s body came charging forward. He grabbed Lin Che and pulled her into his arms. Eventually, he pinned her down on the table.
Lin Che’s eyes widened in shock as she looked at his body leaning towards her.
“Lin Che, what do you want me to do?” Gu Jingze was over her. Looking at her face, he asked in a gentle voice.
Lin Che’s eyes s.h.i.+fted to the marks on his hand and her heart wrenched in pain.
Such a good-looking body had so many scars on it.
These were just the tip of the iceberg. At that time, his back had sustained the most injuries. She wondered if there were more scars on his back.
Lin Che detested herself that she was still worrying over these issues but even now, she did not wish to see a single scar on his body.
Even though she found him annoying, she still wished that he was perfect and without any scars.
Lin Che tilted her head. “What do you mean by what do I want you to do? I should be the one asking what you want me to do so that you will let me off.”
Gu Jingze replied, “You don’t have to do anything because no matter what you do, I’m not going to let you go for my entire life.”
“You…”
“Lin Che, I really regret it.”
Regret? Isn’t it too late to say that he was regretful?
She said, “There’s nothing to be regretful about. Besides, someone with your ident.i.ty does not need to say that.”
Although she knew from the beginning that he had no other choice but to send her abroad, she could not help but feel upset.
He said, “No, I don’t regret sending you abroad. What I regretted was that night. I should not have entered into the hotel room and met you there.”
Lin Che’s eyes halted.
What did he mean? He regretted meeting her?
Her heart wrenched and she was about to lash out at him that she should be the regretful one.
He continued, “If I hadn’t met you, I would still be the decisive and firm person. I would not blame myself and I would not speak to someone in a lowly manner. But now, I have already met you. Even though I regret it. you are standing before me now. In my life, there would not be a second person whom I will speak to in this manner. Because it’s you, I’m willing to do that for you.”
Lin Che froze and looked into his deep eyes. They were like the deep sea, reflecting her image on the waters.
That extremely good-looking face had not become uglier as the years went by. Instead, with age, he had become more mature and it made him even alluring.
Listening to those words that he had just said, it would have melted one’s heart.
And because she knew that he was not someone who would say such things, it was exceptionally touching when he actually said them.
Lin Che closed her eyes and reminded herself to not be fooled by him again.
She pushed him away and said, “Gu Jingze, I’m different from you. I have not regretted meeting you, but… I regret trusting you so much.”
Gu Jingze felt something sharp stab his heart.
Lin Che pushed him away. “Let me go.”
She stood up and headed out.
Gu Jingze stood there for a moment.
Then, he went after her.
Lin Che headed out in big steps. There were many people on the streets because it was lunchtime.
Lin Che headed out and did not turn around despite hearing Gu Jingze calling out to her from the back.
Sweet talk, hmph. He would not say these in the past. Where did he learn it from? He must have used it on Miss Yun before!
Due to the resentment against Gu Jingze in her heart, she cursed him in every thought.
As she crossed the road, she could hear Gu Jingze calling from the back, “Lin Che, where are you going?”
Lin Che turned around and lashed out, “No matter where I go, it’s none of your business! Just mind yourself.” Gu Jingze was about to walk towards her but there was a bread van driving in their direction.
Gu Jingze did not pay attention to the traffic so he was not aware that the green light had stopped flas.h.i.+ng and the red light came on.
Gu Jingze was still walking towards her.
When he turned around and looked, it was too late.
He turned his head to the side and was extremely shocked.
Lin Che shouted at once, “Gu Jingze, watch out!”
Then, the sound of the sudden braking overwhelmed all the other noises in the surroundings.
Lin Che only heard a thud and Gu Jingze’s figure disappeared behind the bread van. Lin Che felt like she was about to suffocate. Her mind went blank for a moment before she ran to Gu Jingze while calling out his name.
“Gu Jingze, are… are you alright?!”
The bread van came to a halt.
Lin Che went past the van and saw Gu Jingze lying on the ground.
The bodyguards who were nearby swarmed forward immediately.
Meanwhile, Lin Che rushed over to Gu Jingze as fast as she could.
She held Gu Jingze up and called out, “Gu Jingze? Gu Jingze, wake up! How are you feeling?”
Gu Jingze laid there motionless and it was as if he was no longer breathing.
Lin Che put her hand close to his nose and there was no exhaling. She withdrew her hand in shock and shouted, “Gu Jingze, wake up, wake up!”
On the side, the bodyguards asked anxiously, “Madam, should we call the doctor?”
“Of course! Hurry up!” Lin Che lifted her head and burst out impatiently.
The bodyguard fished out his phone to make a call.
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze and was about to burst into tears.
However, she knew that she had to control herself at that moment and she tried to calm herself down.
She hurriedly laid him flat on the ground and unb.u.t.toned his coat. Then, she placed her hands over his chest and pressed them down twice but there was still no response. She held his mouth open to resuscitate him.
“Gu Jingze, you better wake up now. ”
“Gu Jingze, I won’t allow you to die.”
“Gu Jingze…”
She hit against his chest but it was to no avail. She was truly getting very anxious and continued to perform resuscitation on his lips.
However…
That moment when she was about to move, she felt something slipping into her mouth…
He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her pa.s.sionately. The tip of his tongue wrapped around hers and their kiss became more intense. Then, he rolled her over the ground.
Lin Che then knew that he was fine this entire time.
She felt relieved for a moment but it soon turned into rage.
She was about to bite off his tongue but then, he had already let go of her.
Lin Che sat on the ground and hit his chest angrily.
“Gu Jingze, are you sick?!”
Gu Jingze laughed while holding onto his chest and said, “You are quite professional in giving chest compressions but you exerted too much strength. I was nearly killed.”
“…”
He even had the guts to say that!
“Serves you right if you die! What kind of person are you?! Too despicable!”
Lin Che continued to hit his chest repeatedly but Gu Jingze pulled her in for a tight embrace. “Let’s not bicker anymore, Lin Che. We have wasted so much time. Let’s not waste it anymore. We never know whether the future or an accident will arrive first. Who knows? I’m alive today but tomorrow…”
