Gu Jingze’s eyes paused. Feeling Mo Huiling grit her teeth, he realized that for the first time that this woman had a fierce side to her.

He never worried about having to explain the situation to his family, but it was definitely going to invite unnecessary trouble if they caused a scene here. Especially in the eyes and judgment of others, it wasn’t going to be good for Lin Che.

Gu Jingze said, “If you want to fight me, it’s not going to do anybody good. Huiling, I advise you to back off now.”

“No, I’m not backing off. Why should I? It’s all because of you, Gu Jingze. You’re so ruthless. Lin Che, he’s so ruthless. He can just throw away many years of a relations.h.i.+p like that. The next person he’ll abandon will be you.”

Gu Jingze frowned. Taking the chance while Mo Huiling was still talking, he gave a look to his men behind him.

Before Mo Huiling could react, someone covered her mouth forcefully.

She was immediately dragged away. She struggled but since she couldn’t win the bodyguard, she continued being pulled away.

Silence followed and Gu Jingze only sighed in relief after she was gone.

Lin Che said, “She…”

“Don’t bother about her. She must be crazy.”

“But what if she really tells the family…”

“I’ll let my men keep watch and make sure she doesn’t go to our family. Anyway, she actually wouldn’t dare to.”

Lin Che nodded. After it was confirmed that Mo Huiling was sent out, Gu Jingze brought Lin Che back in.

The banquet continued here at night. Lin Che and Gu Jingze already decided to stay at one of the villas at the resort.

Although Lin Che spent the entire day playing, she was dead tired. She sat there and dozed off.

Gu Jingze saw her and said to Mu Wanqing, “Mother, if there’s nothing else, I’m heading back first.”

Mu Wanqing looked at the drowsy Lin Che. She smiled and agreed.

Gu Jingze patted Lin Che and woke her up. She sleepily left the place with Gu Jingze.

Gu Jingyan watched the two of them leave. She smiled and said to Mu Wanqing, “I didn’t think that Second Brother would care so much for someone else.”

Mu Wanqing replied, “Indeed. I feel much more at ease seeing him change. He’s no longer that cold and heartless anymore. Otherwise, I would have been really afraid that he wouldn’t be able to find anybody and would have to spend the rest of his life alone.”

Gu Jingyan said, “Yes. Also, I think that my sister-in-law is a very good person.”

“Yes, I liked her the moment I saw her.”

Gu Jingyan said, “That’s right. She looks so simple and pure.”

So enviably pure.

Mu Wanqing asked, “Didn’t you say that Lu Beichen would come soon? Where is he?”

Gu Jingyan’s face changed. She turned away and quickly changed the subject.

Lin Che walked on the road with a whole entourage behind her, ready at her service. Lin Che was already used to it. Whenever Gu Jingze stepped out, it was always such a big commotion. She found it scary initially but now, she didn’t think too much of it.

She was rather unstable and almost fell.

Thankfully, Gu Jingze was beside her and holding her arm. When he got a good grip on her, he frowned at her, “Look at yourself. You’re so dumb. Sigh, what would you do without me?”

Yes, she was really dumb. What would she have done without him?

She dared not to think about that question.

“My legs are just feeling numb from standing the whole day. I’m not that stupid, okay?” Lin Che retorted.

Gu Jingze heard this and immediately looked at her legs, “What? Your legs are numb?”

“Yeah, just a little. It’s alright,” Lin Che said.

However, Gu Jingze carried her up.

“Hey, you…”

“Don’t move. We’ll talk when we go in,” he said as he licked her light body and headed towards the nearby villa.

Very quickly, they were inside and the people behind them dispersed. He let the maids rest for the day, leaving only him and Lin Che in the big room.

Gu Jingze let her down on the sofa and she sat there.

After that, he squatted down and reached out to take off her shoes.

Realizing that he was taking her shoes off, Lin Che quickly said, “No, it’s dirty. I’ve been wearing these shoes the whole day and never took them off.”

Gu Jingze looked up at her, “No wonder your legs are numb. You wore shoes for the entire day. Why didn’t you take them off to check your feet? Hold on, let me check what’s going on.”

“But… But aren’t you afraid of smelly feet?” she looked at him and mumbled.

Gu Jingze looked at her, “Do you have smelly feet?”

“Of course not…” Lin Che hurriedly replied.

“Then, there is no problem,” he said and continued taking off her shoes.

Lin Che wanted to say that although there was no odor, it was still dirty.

However, Gu Jingze didn’t seem to care. He took her shoes off and pressed her feet.

Lin Che looked at him in embarra.s.sment, “It’s dirty… Don’t you dislike it?”

Gu Jingze said, “Even if you’re dirty, you’re my wife. As your husband, I can’t dislike my own wife.”

Lin Che felt her heart become so sweet as if she ate honey. She looked at Gu Jingze kneeling gracefully on the floor. She couldn’t help but feel amazed. How did she ever meet such a man?

No wonder Mo Huiling was very angry. She also thought that she was obviously so average.

Lin Che said, “Miss Mo must be so mad that you treated her that way today…”

“She asked for it. She was too much today,” Gu Jingze said.

Gu Jingze didn’t want to talk about Mo Huiling at all. Until now, he still couldn’t understand why he thought that Mo Huiling was gracious, elegant and beautiful in the beginning.

He saw wrongly. He was blind to fall in love with such a woman.

He never regretted doing anything but this matter made him regretful. He regretted wasting so many years with Mo Huiling and for even wanting to marry her.

But Mo Huiling was this kind of woman.

Thus, Gu Jingze only wanted to treat Lin Che better. He didn’t despise Lin Che at all, especially when he thought about how Lin Che didn’t despise him. He thought that a husband and wife indeed couldn’t hate each other for their flaws.

He puked so horrendously at that time and she didn’t say anything. She only took off the shoes and didn’t care about the filth.

When Gu Jingze and Lin Che went in, they didn’t plan to go out again. Lin Che went to shower while Gu Jingze sat outside listening to the water run. He suddenly thought of how he had been married to Lin Che for so long but there were never any romantic gestures. They never had a wedding ceremony or wedding rings. There was nothing.

Gu Jingze began to blame himself.

Thinking about it, he picked up his phone and made a call.

“Send two people here now. I need help with something…”

Inside, Lin Che finished showering and didn’t feel tired anymore. She wore her pajamas and walked out comfortably.

However, when she stepped out, she saw petals on the bed. Warm music echoed but there was no one in sight…
