In the darkness of the night, Gu Jingze looked down at Lin Che. Her shoulders were trembling slightly. The sight of her narrow and small shoulders made him feel an overwhelming tenderness and protectiveness.
His heart ached a little and he was also at a slight loss as to what to do. He looked at her. "Lin Che, tell me. What's wrong with you?"
Lin Che merely came closer and closer to Gu Jingze step by step but did not let him approach her. "I just dislike you intensely, can't I?"
"You dislike me?" Gu Jingze looked at her in astonishment. "Why do you dislike me?"
"There's no reason. I just don't like you when I look at you!" How could this man be so long-winded as well?
Lin Che simply hated that he did not leave even when she threw a tantrum at him. Why was he still here when she had already said so much?
As he held onto her arm, waves were surging in his black pupils at this moment and they were filled with concern. His gaze was like a torch that nearly made her combust when it was fixed on her.
Lin Che merely felt that she seemed to be a greedy scoundrel. The closer Gu Jingze got to her, the more and more she wanted from him. To be honest, she was no different from Mo Huiling. They were both this selfish; they wanted to completely own a man and have all of his concern and attention instead of just a small portion of it.
Right now, she simply had the urge to seize all the concern he reserved for Mo Huiling, for herself.
It must be because she had never been cared for by someone like this. Thus, when Gu Jingze merely treated her a little better, she was simply unable to bear it.
However, this was perhaps just a part of Gu Jingze's gentlemanly etiquette.
Gu Jingze held onto her tightly. His hand clutched her arm tighter and tighter, and he was completely reluctant to let go even a little bit. "Lin Che, what exactly is wrong with you?! Your complexion is really bad. Are you seriously ill?"
"No. I'm just asking you to leave me alone from now on!" Lin Che said in a trembling voice.
Gu Jingze gazed into her fragile eyes. The deep pain in that pair of originally clear eyes made his heart wrench. He gripped her wrist in a tight hold. "You're my wife. Who else should I concern myself with, if not you?"
Lin Che blanked out. As she looked in his pair of resolute eyes, a slight sweetness began to rise in her chest. Yes. She was his wife.
However, she was not his lover.
"I'm the wife whom you will inevitably divorce," She said softly in a chilling tone.
Gu Jingze stared into her eyes unflinchingly. His deep and bottomless eyes were like those of a hibernating beast, focused and entrancing. "But still, you're currently my wife despite that fact."
Lin Che was actually left momentarily speechless. She simply gazed into his eyes with her lips slightly parted. In that instant, she just felt that she had already fallen into his eyes. She felt like she was an ant that had been helplessly sucked into his eyes without any ability to resist at all.
A man like this...
How could anyone possibly refute him?
How could anyone possibly resist him?
It was no wonder that Mo Huiling loved him so much and to the extent that she was willing to easily give up her own life because of her love for him.
It was likely that only a woman who had never experienced it would find it inconceivable. However, he was simply a man who effortlessly entranced people.
However, at the thought of this, another thought came to Lin Che abruptly. Yes. Perhaps at one point in time in the past, he had been equally good to Mo Huiling as he was to her now.
Lin Che shortly regained some of her rationality. She looked down and said, "But I still don't want you to concern yourself with me."
"Why?"
"You shouldn't be too concerned about me." She looked at him.
Gu Jingze was even more confused. "Why shouldn't I be? Could it be that you didn't want to see me only because I was so concerned about you? Is it wrong for me to care about you? What person wouldn't like concern from others?"
