Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As Lin Che was carried out, she caught a glimpse of Gu Jingze approaching. He pulled open the door and got down from the car. The wind on the bridge was strong and blew at his clothes. His coat was blown open, revealing his white shirt. The dark blue blazer flapped in the wind, looking very relaxed and easy.
Gu Jingze walked over.
Some people saw Gu Jingze and quickly made way for him.
Soon, he was right by Lin Che’s side.
Lin Che just experienced a close call with death. For a minute, she thought that she would never see Gu Jingze again.
She was filled with fear but upon seeing Gu Jingze, she began to relax and her body shook.
Indeed, she almost never saw Gu Jingze again. She almost died.
Looking at Gu Jingze, she reached out her hand, “Gu Jingze, I…”
Lin Che’s face was completely pale and her lips had turned green. He felt angry yet anxious at the same time.
He wanted to give her a scolding but looking at Lin Che, he could only tug her wrist and pull her into his arms. Hugging Lin Che, he could feel his anxious heart slowly calming down.
Although it was only a few minutes, it felt like an eternity.
When he watched the news, he could not bear to look at the car hanging from the bridge. However, he wanted so badly to jump in there and rescue her himself.
But he was no superman and he could not fly. He could only quickly call for rescue. He had to remain calm or end up a whole mess himself.
There was no time for worry or fear. At that time, he only had one thing in mind, and that was to save her.
Now that she was finally safe and sound, the fear started creeping back in.
If she fell from there, death was inevitable.
This damned woman, did she not know what that would entail?
She actually dared to drive out by herself and she must have not cared for her life.
If she died…
Gu Jingze could not imagine a world without her. He could not imagine what it would be like.
Gazing at Lin Che’s petite face, he could not bear to scold her. He hugged her and quickly brought her to the hospital.
In the car, Lin Che also realized how scared she was. She hugged his waist, sitting on his lap and clutching onto him tightly. That feeling made all his anger disappear. He looked down at her hand holding onto him tightly, her head pressed firmly against his chest, so vulnerable like an injured fawn.
Smiling, he held her tightly too and looked ahead. There was unprecedented stability.
Soon, they reached the hospital.
Gu Jingze called for the doctor to quickly check her.
The doctor assessed Lin Che. There were abrasions on her body, but the abrasions were quite large.
Gu Jingze watched and frowned, lowering his head as he said to the doctor, “I don’t wish for her to get any scars.”
The doctor looked up and replied, “Don’t worry, Mr. Gu. These are just superficial abrasions. There should be no scars. We will treat them with care.”
As the doctor spoke, she seemed to have gotten nervous and tense. Her hand moved and Lin Che’s thigh moved along with it.
The doctor was shocked and said in a flustered tone, “Sorry, sorry. Did I use too much strength?”
Gu Jingze frowned, “Be careful, alright?”
Lin Che hurriedly said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. Why are you so fierce?” She looked at the young and pretty doctor, “Take your time; it’s alright. It’s just a small injury, so it doesn’t hurt. The more nervous you are, the worse you’ll perform right?”
Gu Jingze glanced at her. Was it really a small injury?
Lin Che continued, “See? The way you are pressing now is a lot better. This little injury was like when I was learning to ride the bicycle when I was little. I often rubbed it like this. It’ll be fine. It will scab over in just a few days. A year later, it’ll be invisible.”
“A year…” Gu Jingze’s expression sank. “Doctor, I don’t want this to take one year to heal.”
The doctor looked at Gu Jingze in a troubled manner, “This… It is impossible for this to be completely invisible. There will at least be an uneven skin tone in the skin around the injury, but there shouldn’t be anything bigger than this.”
Lin Che insisted, “I can cover the uneven skin tone with some foundation and it’ll be alright. Okay Doctor, take your time.”
Gu Jingze glared at this mouthy woman.
She could not shut up even at a time like this.
Gu Jingze looked at her, “We’re not taking back the car.”
“…”
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze unbelievably, “Why?!”
Gu Jingze looked at her, “You still dare to ask why? You’re not allowed to drive anymore.”
“I… I…” she was just careless this time.
Gu Jingze thought that it was really strange. She was completely different from Mo Huiling. A little injury and Mo Huiling was screaming and shouting. Here, Lin Che nearly died but she was unfazed.
He really did not know how her heart grew.
Lin Che exclaimed, “You bought the car for me; it wouldn’t be good if I don’t drive it!”
Lin Che carefully tugged at his sleeve, “I’ll be careful next time… It’s your gift to me and I can’t leave your gift to rot.”
Hearing her talk made Gu Jingze’s heart soften.
However, when he thought about what happened today, he stood his ground, “I’ll find you a chauffeur. In any case, don’t think about driving for the rest of your life.”
“…” Lin Che pouted. “So bossy.”
Gu Jingze glanced at her, “I shouldn’t have bought you that car.”
Perhaps the next gift should be something more gentle.
Otherwise, this woman might just unknowingly play herself to death.
“You let me buy it,” Lin Che retorted.
Gu Jingze replied, “I miscalculated back then. I overestimated your abilities. Now I know that you’re not just a simple road murderer; you’re a psychopath on the road.”
“…” Lin Che said, “I’m not that dangerous.”
“Not that dangerous!”
Lin Che thought, Fine! Maybe it was a little dangerous, but he doesn’t need to be so strict.
“I got overly excited for a moment and forgot that I can’t pick up calls while driving.”
“…” Gu Jingze considered getting her a personal assistant so that there would be someone to remind her constantly. With a brain like hers, she could forget anything.
Lin Che recalled, “I need to call Sister Yu. Hey, why is my phone missing?”
Just then, she remembered that the whereabouts of her phone was already unknown long ago.
Gu Jingze handed his phone to Lin Che, “Use mine first.”
“Oh, okay,” Lin Che took the phone and then realized she did not know the number.
Gu Jingze looked at her speechlessly and then asked Qin Hao who was outside, “You have Yu Minmin’s number, right?”
Qin Hao was such a versatile person, Lin Che admired him so much. Whatever they wanted, he would have it.
Qin Hao heard Gu Jingze’s request and quickly sent the number to them.
Using Gu Jingze’s phone, Lin Che very soon made a call to Yu Minmin.
Yu Minmin picked up the phone and asked strangely, “Hello?”
