Gu Jingze furrowed his brow. “Doctor, Lin… How is she?”
The doctor examined yet another time. Frowning, she said, “How did she get injured so badly… Was it her first time? She must be treated more gently if it was her first time. Otherwise, it’s very easy to get injured.”
The doctor only remembered who was standing before her when she had finished speaking. She quickly shut her mouth and raised her head fearfully to say, “What I mean is… it’s a little severe. I’m afraid that she’ll need to rest for some time in order to recover.”
However, Gu Jingze only felt his heart pounding continuously when he heard this. He felt more and more regretful for treating her this way.
He had indeed been very angry, but he had never thought of intentionally hurting her.
The last time they did this, he had clearly already experienced the same thing. He knew that it was better to be more careful with her, but he did not expect himself to still intentionally treat her this way again. Although he knew perfectly well that her body could not withstand it, he still went so far as to exert such brute force against her.
He had done it in a moment of anger at the time. The only thought in his mind had been to punish her.
However, the self-reproach he felt currently made him feel that right now, she was not the only one who was punished. He himself was also punished.
When he saw that she had been injured, he only felt more upset. He did not at all begin to feel better.
Gu Jingze said, “Is there any effective method to speed up her recovery?”
“I’ve already sewn up this young lady’s wounds. The areas where blood oozed out still require some stitches. For the next two weeks, you can’t have any sexual intercourse. You must also make sure that the wounds don’t get infected. Remember to apply the medicine every day and rest up more,” the doctor could only say this in the most tactful way as she looked at Gu Jingze.
Despite this, Gu Jingze’s face still became overcast. He glanced behind the curtain silently with his lips already tightly pursed.
It was so bad that she even needed sutures…
Lin Che merely listened from behind the curtain and did not dare to make a single sound. This continued until everything was still outside. Only then did Gu Jingze walk to her side of the curtain with a gloomy face.
He looked at Lin Che and said, “Let’s go. I’ll take you home first.”
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze blankly. “Then, on Mother’s end…”
“I’ll instruct someone to inform her.”
While saying this, he was already moving towards Lin Che and was about to carry her.
Not wanting to be carried by him, Lin Che tossed her head to the side in spite. “No need. I’ll handle it myself.”
“You…”
As Lin Che said this, she jumped off the bed on her own.
However, her thighs began to feel uncomfortable due to the anesthesia that had been administered earlier.
Gu Jingze frowned. When he saw her figure sway, he frantically made his way to her and immediately carried her.
“You…”
“Don’t move. Move again and I’ll throw you onto the ground.” Gu Jingze looked at her ferociously.
Lin Che snorted forcefully and threw an angry glare at him.
Gu Jingze said, “That’s enough. No matter how much you hate me, let’s go home first and then talk about it.”
When Lin Che heard this, her heart twitched.
Yes, the person she hated the most was precisely Gu Jingze.
He had hurt her so brazenly and then pretended to be a good person by bringing her to the hospital.
Why didn’t he just tell her to stay there and run her own course? In any case, perhaps he considered her a mere tool for him to play with.
In no time, the two of them arrived home together.
Gu Jingze placed Lin Che on the leather bench used for lounging purposes in the bathroom. He had instructed the maids to prepare the bath and a towel. With the towel in hand, he walked to Lin Che and said, “Don’t shower today. I’ll wipe you down.”
Lin Che watched him as he walked to her and snatched the towel from him. “No need. I’ll do it myself. I won’t trouble you to help me.”
“You…”
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che. However, she turned her head the other way and did not spare him even a glance. Using her backhand, she began to fold the towel.
In a moment of anger, Gu Jingze said angrily to her, “Fine, do whatever you want!”
When he finished speaking, he pulled the bathroom door open and walked out.
Lin Che heard the door close with a thump. Biting her lip, she did not turn her head but merely looked down and began wiping her body. However, when she saw the marks he had left behind on her body, her heart ached even more.
Gu Jingze stood outside. He sensed that a lot of time had passed but she still had not come out. At the same time, he felt slightly regretful for having left out of spite. Nevertheless, when he recalled how disgusted she had looked earlier, he stood by the door and looked at it but ultimately did not open it.
He simply just stood outside listening to the sounds from inside.
There was still no sound from inside after a long time.
At last, Gu Jingze could not help but rush over to knock on the door. “Lin Che?”
His hand was about to pull the door open when it opened first.
Lin Che had already put on her sleeping clothes. She looked at Gu Jingze and snorted before brushing past him and walking directly towards the bed.
Gu Jingze froze. “Lin Che, I know that I was careless and hurt you this time, but…”
“It was out of carelessness?”
Gu Jingze clenched his teeth. “Yes. I’m apologizing to you.”
“Okay. I got it. But I’m not prepared to accept your apology,” Lin Che said.
Gu Jingze looked deflated.
Lin Che looked at him. “If there’s nothing else, I hope I’m allowed to sleep. I still have work tomorrow, so I need the rest.”
Gu Jingze stood there and gazed at her deeply.
Lin Che felt bitter inside and there was no hint of a smile on her stubborn face. She did not even glance at Gu Jingze.
The corner of Gu Jingze’s lips twitched. He seemed to have exhausted all his energy. In the end, he looked at Lin Che before pulling the door open and walking out directly.
When she saw the door close with a thud, Lin Che’s mind also became at ease. She sat on the bed and could still feel a sudden pain in her nether regions. The effects of the anesthetic had worn off and the area now felt slightly uncomfortable.
But what made her even more upset was the image floating continuously in her mind of him being so brutal and mad earlier.
She had never seen him like this and at the moment, she was really unable to accept how he had treated her.
In the meantime, after Gu Jingze left the room, he did not continue staying in the Gu residence. He immediately drove off and left.
The maids in the house knew that the two of them had likely gotten into an argument and none of them dared to say another word.
Gu Jingze arrived at another piece of property. As he took a shower in the bathroom, he could still see in the mirror some marks on his own body as well. They were probably all a result of her kicking and hitting him. They were not very deep but were nevertheless visible.
Frustrated, he suddenly smashed the mirror into pieces. He then turned around and placed his arms on the table for support as he stood there.
Previously, his rationality had been absent and he had been very frenzied. When he looked back on it now, he had seriously been too paranoid to have actually accused her of being involved with Gu Jingyu just because of a wrist-watch.
He knew Gu Jingyu well and he knew Lin Che well too.
Knowing that Gu Jingyu was his younger brother, Lin Che would absolutely not have any real entanglement with him.
It was only because he had gotten too furious in the moment that he did not think about it carefully.
However, when he had suddenly thought of how Lin Che and Gu Jingyu were on such good terms, he still got insanely jealous even though friends giving each other gifts was normal.
Lin Che… Lin Che had never even given him a present!
He felt that his way of thinking was childish too. How could he be just like a little boy who got angry over just a small present? Still, he could not control his thoughts.
After washing up, Gu Jingze lay on the bed and was unable to fall asleep. He thought about it and felt that given Lin Che’s carelessness, it was really not too good to leave her alone at home when her body was still injured. Thus, he picked up his phone again and called the butler back home.
