Lin Che felt as if blood had suddenly rushed to her brain, turning it to complete chaos.
It was only when his slightly cool lips brushed against hers and left behind a lingering patch of moisture that she regained her senses.
He had kissed her...
And he was still kissing her.
He daringly pried her teeth open and almost raided her of all her air, not giving her any space to think at all.
Their tongues knocked against each other and his tongue wrapped around the tip of hers. With one forceful suck, all of her blood seemed to begin flowing backward and a feeling of numbness immediately spread across her entire body.
Lin Che's eyes widened. As she looked at his perfect face in such close proximity, a fragrance embraced her. It was tinged with the heat of ambiguity and it caused her to suddenly forget her pain.
Her fingers clutched his strong hand as the heat still in his palm traveled into her hand in threads.
She did not feel an ounce of pain again until the doctor stitched her wound up. Until Gu Jingze slowly released her lips.
Her scent was as sweet as he remembered.
After he released her lips, the remnants of desire lingered between his teeth.
It might have been the earlier spike in adrenaline that had allowed Lin Che, who had lost an excessive amount of blood, to stay awake all this while.
However, when the doctor stood up and said that he was done treating her, she laid down and fainted immediately like a broken string that was released.
When Lin Che woke up, she realized that there was an expanse of blue around her. There were various types of apparatus in operation.
She froze and struggled to get up only to pull her wound below that left her feeling a stabbing pain. However, she sensed that someone was still holding her hand.
It was only then that she saw Gu Jingze laying by the bedside, fast asleep.
Her slight movement caused him to open his eyes instantly. "What happened?"
He looked at her with slight anxiousness. "Is there anything wrong with you?"
He looked a little tired. Lin Che could not help but wonder if he had stayed here accompanying her for the entire night.
Lin Che quickly said, "No, no. I just pulled on my wound slightly."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingze rushed to stand up and lifted the blanket to check her wound.
It was still tightly bandaged and probably would not lead to any complications.
He let out a sigh of relief and frowned at her. He said, "Be a little more careful. Don't move around for no reason."
In the last night, she mumbled from time to time and her groaning made him feel uneasy.
He could only hold her hand like this and stay beside her throughout the night. It was only when dawn approached that he succumbed to his tiredness by laying down and falling asleep.
Qin Hao could not bear to see him like this and wanted him to sleep in the adjacent hospital room. But each time he moved, Lin Che would grunt a few times.
Thus, he lifted his hand and gestured for Qin Hao to leave. He stayed here looking after her the entire night.
Fortunately, the doctor said that although a major artery had ruptured, the bleeding had stopped and she was going to heal with timely treatment.
However, a large amount of blood flowed from the major artery, so even though the bleeding stopped, there was still an excessive amount of blood loss, which caused her to feel very weak.
The doctor also said that it was highly dangerous for the major artery there to bleed. If not for the timely treatment, she would have likely died within a short amount of time.
Lin Che felt that she seemed to be in much better spirits as she looked around the luxurious VIP ward. If not for the excessive number of apparatus, it really looked nothing like a ward. She knew that she was probably alright now. At the same time that she heaved a sigh of relief, she suddenly remembered. "Oh no, what about my title deed and my property deed?"
Gu Jingze looked at her, dumbfounded. "I don't know."
Lin Che was shocked. "No way!"
She had tossed it aside somewhere in her moment of anxiety. How could it be that no one kept it for her?
