Lin Che asked, “Hey, what are you doing? This is a school. Put me down.”

Gu Jingze said, “Don’t move. We’ll talk when I take you home.”

Lin Che speechlessly looked at Gu Jingze.

The two of them reached home very quickly. The maids saw Gu Jingze actually carrying Lin Che in and were very puzzled.

Gu Jingze asked the maids to fetch some hot water and then he put Lin Che down on the sofa.

When the hot water was placed at the side, he waved his hand to dismiss them.

Lin Che was still shocked, but Gu Jingze already took her shoes off and tossed them to the side.

One look at her leg and it was indeed already swollen.

And it wasn’t a light injury.

His heart couldn’t help but ache. He looked up with his dark eyes staring at her, “Don’t partic.i.p.ate in some party again.”

Lin Che froze and then quickly said, “Don’t be like this.”

“I said don’t go. Don’t care about what others say. You are my wife. I’ll make sure that whoever dares to talk about you or mention this incident will disappear from C Nation. They will disappear from every corner I know.”

Lin Che had never seen Gu Jingze like this.

His dark eyes were so cold and murderous intent was almost jumping out through his soul.

It was as if anybody in his way would be ruthlessly trampled under his feet.

It was like man stopping the murder of men and G.o.d stopping the murder of G.o.ds.

He was really very angry and he looked scary when he was angry.

Lin Che quickly grabbed his shoulder.

She looked into his eyes and said, “No, Gu Jingze, no.”

Gu Jingze listened to her voice.

He knelt on one knee and his eyes were leveled with hers.

Lin Che bit her lip and looked at him holding her leg.

Her heart was warmed. She suddenly felt as if she could do anything for him.

Yes, all these were so that one day, she could stand beside him properly and without being despised.

What he said was right. There was no need to care about what others thought. However, it was all the more so that she wanted everything to be perfect.

She looked at Gu Jingze, “But I’ve already started learning. I don’t want to give up.”

Gu Jingze’s quiet look was frightening. He looked at Lin Che, “This is not considered giving up. Don’t endure this suffering anymore. Let’s not partic.i.p.ate. Let’s stop learning.”

“No, Gu Jingze. I’ve already been through the worst part. Don’t you see? Isn’t this swollen now? It will change for the better tomorrow. If I just give up like this, then my hard work these past two days will be for nothing. There’s no way I’m giving up now. I can’t waste this. Furthermore, all this may be extremely tough, but the one who benefits will be me. It’ll be useful for me in the future. It’s no big deal to continue learning. I can persevere. Please trust me, okay?”

Gu Jingze still couldn’t bear for her to do so. He looked silently at her, raising his chin and stiffening his face.

Lin Che said, “Really. I know it’s tough, but isn’t life like that? If everything goes so smoothly, there’ll be no meaning to life. I simply want to try and challenge myself continually. It’s very meaningful to me. Also, don’t tell me that you believe that I’ll definitely lose and all my effort will go to waste? Are you stopping me because you don’t believe in me?”

Gu Jingze looked at her quietly. After a long time, his expression finally softened.

Lin Che then smiled and said, “And it doesn’t hurt at all. Alright, get up. I’m going to wash up.”

But Gu Jingze did not budge. He ma.s.saged her leg and said, “Don’t move. Let me do it.”

Lin Che hastily said, “No, I can do it myself. I just need to soak it.”

“I’ll help you ma.s.sage it.”

“You…”

Gu Jingze didn’t wait for her to speak. He immediately placed her feet into the water and washed them.

Those previously fair and slender feet were now swollen like bread rolls.

He washed them meticulously, not ignoring any of the gaps between her toes.

Lin Che’s feet were in his hands and she couldn’t help but blush, especially when he pressed at the sensitive spots of her feet. It tickled her and she wanted to withdraw her feet.

Looking at the man who was kneeling on the ground, she thought that a man who could humble himself was the greatest man…

That seriousness in his eyes as he stared at her feet really made her feel hot.

—

The next day, Lin Che went to ballet cla.s.s in the morning and made an appointment with Situ Qiong in the afternoon.

Gu Jingze never thought that she would be able to convince Situ Qiong to teach her.

He sent Lin Che to Situ Qiong’s home. When they were outside, he said, “This person’s character is weird. Remember to call me if you meet any trouble.”

“Don’t worry. It’ll be fine. I think that everyone is just exaggerating.”

Gu Jingze shook his head. This la.s.s was still so naïve.

“Villains don’t spell it out on their foreheads. Even elementary school kids know this and you don’t.”

“Get lost. Of course, I do. It’s just that he doesn’t have any reason to be bad to me.”

“True. You indeed don’t have any value that Situ can make a big fuss over.”

“Go away!”

Gu Jingze added, “But Situ is hard to please because he doesn’t care who you are. He dares to do whatever he wants to do. This kind of person has no principles and is not afraid of power. That’s why people feel that he is difficult to handle.”

“Okay…”

“Alright, go ahead.”

Lin Che very quickly entered the house.

After watching her enter, Gu Jingze still decided to leave some people here to keep watch before he left.

Housekeeper Chen of the Situ household saw Lin Che and brought her in. He smiled and spoke as they walked, “Master Qiong really hasn’t taught anyone fencing in a long time. We were really very surprised that you were able to make Master Qiong pay attention to you.”

“Is that so… Will he still know how to fence then?”

“Tsk…” Housekeeper Chen said, “Don’t say something like that.”

This girl was too bold with her words.

However, they were all indeed suspicious. Did Master Qiong who had to suddenly return to take care of family matters still know how to fence?

Very soon, Lin Che was inside. She saw that Situ Qiong was already standing there. He was tall and slender, but obviously still aloof.

Lin Che walked in and said, “Hey, I’m here.”

He turned around and looked at Lin Che, “Are you ready to suffer?”

“…”

Situ Qiong then brought Lin Che in to look at the equipment.

The fencing room here was really very professional. Everything looked especially complete.

Situ Qiong said, “Fencing is divided into three disciplines: foil, epee, and saber. The fencing compet.i.tion for your WW party will be foil. It is also the most suitable style for girls.”

He gave her a set of equipment and said to her, “There are sensors on it. Once the sword touches them, it will give a signal. This is a way to help the referee determine the score in the game.”

“Wow, fencing has so many styles?”

“Now,” he looked at Lin Che. “You will first do physical training with me.”

“Ah…”
