Chapter 394 - She Ran Away From Home!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Jingze saw Lin Che lying on the bed. He walked towards her and placed his large hand on her forehead.

Shocked, Lin Che’s eyes jerked open. She looked at Gu Jingze right in front of her while thinking of the fact that he had actually lied to her earlier. She lifted her hand to simply slap his hand away and asked, “What are you doing?”

“I came to take a look at you. Are you sick? Are you feeling unwell?”

Lin Che pursed her lips. “No.”

“Then why is your complexion so bad?”

“It’s probably something I ate during dinner,” Lin Che said.

Gu Jingze’s forehead darkened and he picked up his phone.

“There was something wrong with the food we ate at the restaurant just now. I need you to handle the matter.”

Lin Che froze when she heard his steely voice.

When he said to handle the matter, did he mean that he was going to make them close up shop?”

This Gu Jingze was a little too unreasonable.

Lin Che hastily said, “What are you doing, Gu Jingze?”

Gu Jingze looked at her. “Didn’t you say that there was something wrong with the food we had earlier?”

“Hmph. It’s definitely not their fault. It’s yours, alright?” Lin Che said angrily.

Gu Jingze paused before looking at her. “Tell me. What did I do wrong?”

“Don’t you know what’s wrong with you? How dare you ask me? Gu Jingze, it’s true that this is merely a contractual marriage. If you want to keep another woman by your side, you can just tell me frankly. You don’t have to waste your energy to lie to me.”

When Gu Jingze heard her say the words contractual marriage, it immediately incited his anger.

He looked at Lin Che. “I dare you to say that again!”

“Why... why wouldn’t I say it? If you dare to even do it, why would you stop others from talking about it? You don’t have to lie. You can be with Lu Chuxia if you want to. It’s not like I care, hmph.”

She didn’t care?

Gu Jingze held his lip between his teeth. How did she know that he was with Lu Chuxia?

“There was a reason I met Lu Chuxia. But there’s nothing else going on between her and me.”

“It’s none of my business who you’re with!”

Was there nothing else going on between them?

Then why did he have to lie?

Was he worried that she would be angry?

Why was he worried that she would be angry?

So they did have something going on!

Lin Che knew that if he had told her that he was going to meet Lu Chuxia, she might have taken it to heart and might have been angry too.

But she would not have been as angry as she was right now.

She was even more furious because he had lied to her.

Gu Jingze stood there and looked at her. “Did you just say that it’s none of your business? Lin Che, I dare you to say that again!”

Lin Che scoffed and got up from the bed. “So what if I say it again? Gu Jingze, I don’t care what you do. You can meet whoever you want to meet in the open. If you’re uncomfortable meeting her outside, you can bring her home. If you think that my presence here irks you, I’ll just leave now.”

“You...”

As Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che, his anger surged instantly and was about to burst through his temples. Even the veins in his forehead were starting to throb as a result.

He watched as Lin Che take out her clothes and drag her bag down as if she was really about to leave. Gu Jingze stood tall with his face pulled taut as he pointed at her and yelled angrily, “Lin Che, if you dare to leave, don’t ever come back!”

In her fit of anger, of course, Lin Che paid no heed to his words.

“Who said that I’ll be coming back?” Lin Che casually stuffed her clothes into the bag and proceeded to walk out in long strides.

Gu Jingze did not think that she would actually leave.

He looked on as she pushed the door open and walked out without a second glance back at him. Then, he quickly chased after her.

Outside, Lin Che dragged her luggage down the stairs step by step. She looked like she was having a rough time.

Gu Jingze gazed at her with blood throbbing in his temples. “Lin Che, come back here!”

Lin Che merely scoffed.

“Lin Che, you... you get back here now, you hear me?”

Lin Che continued to walk down the stairs. Finally, she arrived at the bottom after a lot of difficulties. Gu Jingze held onto the balustrade and looked at this stubborn girl from above.

This damned woman. She actually meant it when she said that she would leave.

However, just then, the maids happened to look towards them from the side as they were extremely surprised and curious.

They wondered what had happened to the couple again.

Gu Jingze lifted a foot but noticed the maid’s gaze.

He immediately stopped in his tracks and merely looked down. “Fine, fine. Lin Che, don’t regret this!”

“There’s no way that yours truly will regret this, hmph.” As Lin Che spoke, she pushed the main door open directly and walked out.

“You...”

She even dared to refer to herself so arrogantly.

Gu Jingze felt that even his lungs were about to explode from anger.

Despite this, he continued to stand there pridefully as he watched her leave. He huffed and strode back inside.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Noticing that the maids were still watching, he turned around coldly and shot them a cutting glance.

The maids quickly pretended that nothing had happened and went off to do their chores.

Gu Jingze was livid as he returned to the bedroom. He stared at the empty bed and went to lie down on the couch instead. He thought to himself that this damned woman was seriously... seriously becoming more and more audacious!

—

Having left the Gu residence, Lin Che turned around to take a look. Inside, she was thinking to herself, This Gu Jingze was an overbearing man, a total pervert, and a complete lothario. He could go and look for someone else. She would not serve him any longer.

She glared fiercely at the magnificent house before looking at her own luggage. She did not know where she should go now.

In her helplessness, she had no choice but to call Shen Youran.

On the other end of the line, Shen Youran said in surprise, “No way. Boss, did you argue with Gu Jingze?”

“That’s right. Why? Do you have space to take me in? I’ve been chased out of the house and I’m living on the streets right now.”

“How could Gu Jingze bear to chase you out? You must have thrown a tantrum and ran away from home yourself.”

“Shut up. Why would he be reluctant to chase me out? He has so many women flocking around him. Without me, there are still countless women who will simply offer themselves to him. Of course, he doesn’t care where I stay. So do you or do you not have any space for me? I’m really about to sleep on the streets right now.”

“Go stay in a hotel. My place is in a mess. I don’t think it’s suitable for a Young Madam like yourself, don’t you think?”

“I... I’m definitely not going to a hotel. How would I know which hotel belongs to the Gu family? Right now, I don’t want to have anything to do with the Gu family at all right now.”

Shen Youran said disbelievingly, “Alright then. If you don’t mind, come over and live a difficult life with me. Come to my rented apartment.”

Shen Youran gave her an address and Lin Che arrived there in no time.

Shen Youran met Lin Che downstairs and said, “I respectfully welcome Young Madam... but I feel so pressured now that you’re here. Gu Jingze won’t blow my apartment up, right?”

Lin Che glared at her fiercely and swatted her head. “Get lost!”

“Yes, Young Madam. Your humble servant will get lost now.”

Lin Che speechlessly hauled her luggage upstairs alone and threw it into Shen Youran’s room. She then looked around Shen Youran’s apartment.
