Gu Jingze didn't want to say anything more and only said to her, "Alright, Huiling. I'm not blaming you."
"Really?" Mo Huiling's eyes lit up.
She looked unbelievably at Gu Jingze.
Her heart glowed as she thought that he still loved her deep down inside.
However, Gu Jingze continued, "I let you down first."
"No, not at all. I know you didn't have a choice. You have no feelings for Lin Che. I just thought yesterday that since nothing happened to you when you touched her, you must have already recovered. That was why I dared to touch you. If I knew it was so serious, I would never have touched you."
"You're right. Nothing ever happened when she touched me," Gu Jingze looked at Mo Huiling. "I'm sorry I never told you. What shouldn't have happened between Lin Che and me already happened a long time ago. So the one who betrayed the other from the beginning... was actually me. I'm the one who let you down."
Mo Huiling froze for a long time, wondering if she heard him wrong.
What shouldn't have happened already happened?
He and Lin Che already...
Mo Huiling collapsed and took a few steps back. Her wide eyes stared in shock at Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze never intended to tell her this.
He initially thought that it was just a one-time thing with Lin Che. And it was because of the drug's effects.
When they divorced, there would be nothing left. Not saying it out would prevent Mo Huiling from getting hurt.
Even if they separated, he wanted to separate on good terms. But he actually made the wrong move. He should have told her earlier. This would have only been fair to her.
"You and Lin Che have already... already..." Mo Huiling still could not believe it and repeated him.
"Huiling, I'm sorry..." Gu Jingze could only say deeply.
Mo Huiling started bawling.
"Why? Why...? Why can you be with her but not with me..."
"This is also why I can touch her and not you. This is not something we can control and right now, we don't know why either. But it just happened to be this way. So, Huiling. Please stop fixating yourself on me. I'm no longer the Gu Jingze who you wanted in the past. Take it that I betrayed our relationship and I hope you'll get over it sooner..."
Mo Huiling cried and looked at Gu Jingze. She already didn't know what to say.
After that, Gu Jingze could only have someone send Mo Huiling back.
Lin Che soon came out and saw Gu Jingze standing there. She asked him strangely, "What happened?"
Gu Jingze smiled and said to Lin Che, "Let's go. Didn't I say that I would take you to the ski park?"
"Huh? Now?"
"Yes."
Lin Che chuckled, "Is your body well enough... Let's not force it. You should rest today."
They were going back tomorrow.
Gu Jingze heard this and the little trace of warmth on his face was erased, "Why not? You're belittling my body too much. Relax, even if we go at it again tonight, I'll be able to take it."
He looked at Lin Che, "Shall we try?"
Lin Che kicked his shin, "Get lost. Who wants to try that with you?"
Gu Jingze yelped in pain, "I think you're getting more brazen now." Lin Che blushed and ran away.
Gu Jingze looked up and saw his bodyguards quickly turn their heads and pretend to have not seen.
Since when were the bodyguards so tactful?
Usually, if someone dared to move a muscle towards him, they would have come rushing forward.
Naturally, after yesterday's events, these people felt even more so that Mrs. Gu was essential.
In the end, no other type of woman was as good as Lin
