She was a little scared and she pushed his chest out of fear. Her body was trapped in his embrace while her legs were crossing alternately again and again down below.

She did not want this. She really did not want this.

She did not want him to make her feel such pain again.

Nor did she want to see such a frenzied Gu Jingze again.

Gu Jingze also thought of the same thing.

When he remembered the marks on her body and the way she shrank into herself involuntarily at his touch, Gu Jingze instinctively slowed himself down. Holding her hand, he kissed her lips slowly with movements that became more and more gentle each time.

He also loosened his hold around her arms considerably. While kissing her like this, he mumbled her name gently and hummed, “Lin Che, Lin Che, don’t be scared, don’t be scared…”

Still, how could Lin Che not be scared? The more she felt his lips pressing deeper, the more afraid she got.

When she felt him release her lips and move the tip of his tongue to her neck, it became even more difficult for her to suppress the terror she felt inside and she immediately wanted to push away the man beside her.

Gu Jingze tried his best to be gentle, but he could still feel the woman in his arms begin trembling uneasily from head to toe.

Gu Jingze froze immediately.

She was trembling like a leaf falling as it rustled in the cold wind.

Gu Jingze’s heart sank.

Was she really so terrified of him?

He instantly let go of Lin Che. Lowering his head, he saw that she was panting lightly. Although her body appeared completely fine on the surface, he could feel from simply touching her skin that even her fingertips were trembling.

She also had her head down as she looked straight ahead. The fear in her eyes with their clearly-delineated blacks and whites was incredibly obvious.

Gu Jingze’s heart twitched painfully at the sight. He drew in a deep breath as he looked at Lin Che.

He did not know how long he had been looking at her before he suddenly released his hold, turned around resolutely, and walked out.

Lin Che only felt her hand get released abruptly.

His retreating figure swiftly disappeared from the room.

The maids were all shocked when Gu Jingze left the house again in the middle of the night.

Gu Jingze flung the door open and left. It was only when he sat in the car that he closed his eyes deeply.

She was actually so afraid of him…

“Tell them to look after Madam properly. Remind her to take her medicine and don’t put anything spicy in her food for the time being,” he said to the Butler when he opened his eyes.

The butler froze before nodding his head quickly. He then asked, “Sir, are you not planning to come back for the time being?”

“Yes,” Gu Jingze said. Not wanting to say anything more, he waved his hand and gestured for the driver to start the car.

He massaged his temple.

He was really degrading himself too much. She disliked him so much and detested him so much, but he had still instructed the maids to look after her before leaving.

Why did he have to place himself in such a lowly position?

In the room, Lin Che sat on the huge bed, still feeling a little gloomy. Gu Jingze had just left like that…

She thought to herself that he must have been really angry to have left so resolutely.

She also thought that it was no wonder that he suddenly got so angry; there were plenty of obedient and sensible women around him. None of them were as troublesome as her.

A little dejected, she looked around the room. She wondered if Gu Jingze would chase her out of this place someday.

Just then, Shen Youran suddenly gave her a call.

Why did Shen Youran call her out of the blue at such a late hour?

Lin Che hastily picked up her phone.

“Youran, did something happen?”

“I’m the one who wants to ask you if anything happened. Gu Jingze suddenly called me in the middle of the night.”

“What? Gu Jingze called you?”

“Yes. I was literally frightened out of my wits when I received the call. I thought something had happened.”

Lin Che was also about to be frightened to death. Why did Gu Jingze suddenly call Shen Youran?

Shen Youran said, “Gu Jingze’s call… Hey, by the way, help me check if that was his private number. I want to save it, hehehe.”

“…” Lin Che quickly asked, “Enough of that. You still haven’t told me why he called you.”

“Oh, I was too excited for a moment and forgot to tell you. He just told me to go over and visit you. He said that you’re injured and asked me to look after you a little. But where are you injured?”

“…”

Gu Jingze even thought of her injury and asked someone to look after her?

With her phone in hand, Lin Che’s heart ached and swelled faintly.

Was he still worried about her? Was he still feeling sorry for her?

Or did he ask someone else to look after her because… he did not want to return again?

Holding her phone, Lin Che casually said a few words to Shen Youran before hanging up directly. She hurriedly stood up and walked out to see the butler looking troubled as he walked in her direction. When the butler saw Lin Che, he quickly asked, “Madam, are you still angry with Sir? Sir just left for some reason. He suddenly said that he was going to stay at the villa at Fushan. Sir dotes on you so much. If you say something to cajole him, his heart will definitely soften.”

Lin Che said, “I… I didn’t say anything harsh though.”

“In any case, Sir is about to leave to stay at Fushan for a bit. He’s still at the entrance right now. Are you not going to take a look?”

Lin Che did not continue speaking to the butler. Skirting around him, she walked outside. She wanted to ask Gu Jingze why he had called Shen Youran for no reason. By going there, did he want… did that mean he wanted a divorce?

If he was not going to come back, then they should simply sign the divorce form. Why did he still have to trouble himself and ask someone else to look after her?

Outside, the wind was still cold. Lin Che wrapped her clothes around her and ran out. Immediately, she saw Gu Jingze’s car beginning to move slowly.

Lin Che frantically called out, “Gu Jingze, Gu Jingze. Come back. Where are you going?”

Nevertheless, Gu Jingze’s car still drove directly out of her sight.

Inside, Gu Jingze saw Lin Che run out and frowned.

The driver looked at Gu Jingze. “Sir, Madam…”

“Just ignore her,” Gu Jingze said.

It had not been easy for Lin Che to run down. Since Gu Jingze’s figure had moved inside the car, she thought that he had seen her and would probably get out of the car. However, she only saw the car move along a smooth trajectory before her eyes. Thereafter, it did not slow down even an inch and simply drove off directly.

Lin Che stood there in anger. As she watched the car leave, she stood there and shouted angrily, “Gu Jingze, you…”

She thought bitterly to herself, By leaving now, did Gu Jingze really not plan to return?

She actually began to get upset. She thought, Could it be that their relationship would end just like this?

Even though she knew from the start that it would end, she only realized at this moment when it ended that she, in fact, badly did not want it to end.

She did not want it to ever end.

However…

After an hour, news of an explosion made the entire C Nation go into an immediate frenzy…

There had been an explosion at the villa in Fushan. There were suspicions that someone had thrown a bomb. The number of people dead or injured was still uncertain as of date, but according to reports, the place that had been blown up was a piece of property belonging to the Gu family. That night, Gu Jingze had secretly met the confidant of M Nation’s Prime Minister. It was speculated that a spy had discovered this and created this explosion. At the site, the confidant had died on the spot and Gu Jingze’s whereabouts were unknown…
