Chapter 685 - I Should Have Shot You Dead Earlier

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The people outside quickly called Gu Jingze to inform him while the rest of them stayed behind to continue the rescue operation.

Mo Huiling turned around to look at Lin Che. “It’s all your fault. Everything is your fault!”

Lin Che looked at Mo Huiling. “I can understand that you don’t want to lose Gu Jingze. But stop lying to yourself, alright? Gu Jingze is no longer the Gu Jingze of the past. He no longer loves you.”

“Ha. You mean that he loves you since he doesn’t love me anymore?” Mo Huiling looked at her as if she was about to go mad.

“This... I didn’t say that either. But right now, he wants to live together with me. He dotes on me a lot and likes me a lot too. Even if his feelings for me are not as deep as love, I know that he likes me.”

“Pft. There is no way that he would like you. He has feelings for you only because he can touch you.”

“No, I trust him. I can sense his feelings for me. Even if some things are left unsaid, I can still sense them. Mo Huiling, you can’t demand for a person’s heart. These are emotions. Our marriage may have been a mere contractual one in the beginning. However, we truly want to be together right now. So I hope that you won’t keep bothering us, alright? You’re not even that old anyway. You’ll still be the rich and young heiress of the Mo family even after giving birth to a child. You’ll be able to get any man you want!”

“No!” Mo Huiling shouted loudly, “I want Gu Jingze but I can’t have him. He’s already in your hands now, so of course, you can say that. But there’s only one Gu Jingze. Do you think you would still fall for someone else if you left Gu Jingze? No, you wouldn’t. If that happened, you would only become crazier and angrier than I am now!”

Lin Che jolted. She had indeed thought about it before. Whether she would fall in love with anyone else if she no longer had Gu Jingze.

Yes, she would not.

Lin Che looked at Mo Huiling. “I may not fall in love with anyone else. But at the very least, I can still love myself a little more and treat myself better. Even if I don’t fall in love with anyone else for the rest of my life, I won’t humiliate myself like this. I won’t let myself be stuck in the past. Even if I’m all alone, I will still look towards the future and not stay in the same place.”

Mo Huiling sneered. “You won’t understand how I feel because you’ve never lost anything. All of you have forced me into madness. Gu Jingze forced me to become like this!”

Just then, they heard a noise outside. People had started prying the doors open.

The elevator rocked back and forth.

Mo Huiling clinged to the elevator wall in fear. She cursed loudly at the people outside, “Do you know what you’re doing at all? Can you bear the consequences of putting my child in shock.”

The people outside already knew that Gu Jingze had, in fact, picked up the call earlier. Upon hearing that Lin Che and Mo Huiling were trapped in the elevator, he simply said that he would be there soon. However, they could sense the big boss’s worry.

Perhaps Mo Huiling was telling the truth.

They had no choice but to be patient with Mo Huiling so that she would not be unhappy.

“Miss Mo, don’t worry. The elevator won’t drop. Our elevators have double reinforcement. What you’re experiencing now is a normal occurrence. Don’t worry. We’re also doing this to get you out of there as soon as possible, okay?”

Mo Huiling’s mood improved immensely as well upon clearly sensing the change in their attitudes.

“Hmph. I’m merely reminding you. You should know how important the child in my womb is. You’re finished if anything goes wrong with my child.”

“Yes, yes. Of course, we won’t dare to hurt your child. Don’t worry. We’ll get the two of you out immediately. We’ve already informed Mr. Gu as well. He said that he will be here shortly.

From inside, Mo Huiling banged on the elevator doors. “I don’t want to stay with this cheap woman for even a minute!”

“It’s the same for me, Mo Huiling. I don’t want to spend another minute with you either.”

Mo Huiling sneered and looked at her. “I should have shot you dead immediately just now!”

“Huh. It’s too late for you to regret it now.” Lin Che leaned against the wall and quietly listened to the noise outside.

Sure enough, the doors started moving again a while later. It was not long before the doors were pried open to reveal a slim gap.

“Ah. Miss Lin, Miss Mo, come out quickly.” Delighted, Lin Che immediately walked towards the opening. However, Mo Huiling quickly pushed her aside.

She looked at the people outside and asked, “Don’t you know who should be given priority? Hmph, all of you are truly clumsy. You took such a long time to pry the doors open. Move aside.”

Now that they knew her identity, they did not dare to do anything to offend her either. They watched Mo Huiling make her exit first before hastily saying to Lin Che, “Miss Lin, we’re so sorry. We’re so sorry to have actually trapped you inside the elevator. Quick, come out. You’re not hurt, right? Your fans would definitely not let me off if they found out about this.”

Lin Che said a simple thank you before swiftly leaving this narrow space.

Just then, the people outside suddenly shouted in surprise.

The crisp sounds of footsteps could be heard from afar. Gu Jingze walked quickly while leading his subordinates into the area.

The two of them had been trapped inside for a very short time before being rescued, so Gu Jingze had only just arrived too.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Upon seeing Gu Jingze, Mo Huiling immediately rushed towards him.

However, Gu Jingze simply walked past Mo Huiling amidst the shouting and came immediately to Lin Che’s side.

Everyone was still gasping in awe at the fact that they had seen Gu Jingze. They were so shocked at the unpredictability of life. They were even able to witness such a scene and became stunned by what happened later.

Prior to this, they had carefully catered to Mo Huiling’s whims. However, right now they were realizing that Gu Jingze was completely unconcerned about Mo Huiling and instead headed straight for Lin Che.

He looked down and pulled Lin Che up. He heaved a sigh of relief only after carefully examining her body and confirming that she was fine.

“You’re fine, right?”

“Yes. But she...” Lin Che glanced at Mo Huiling at the side.

The people around them were all slightly surprised. Mo Huiling had repeatedly said that she was pregnant with Gu Jingze’s child. But why was it that the person Gu Jingze was worried about... was actually Lin Che?

However, without waiting for the shocked reactions of the others, Gu Jingze raised his eyebrows and his subordinates immediately began clearing the venue.

Upon seeing that everyone had been cleared out, Mo Huiling went up to Gu Jingze and said, “Jingze, I...”

Gu Jingze sensed Mo Huiling’s hands creep up his arm. He waved his arm and pushed her away.

Mo Huiling was immediately frightened by the expression on Gu Jingze’s face. She stared at his face with a hint of hope that flashed in her eyes.

He was merely angry. He behaved like this when he got angry...

No, but she had never seen such a terrifying expression on his face. It was as if the man before her was not Gu Jingze but a demon.

Gu Jingze looked at Mo Huiling with loathing. “I believe you’ve already seen the results of the DNA test. Your child has nothing to do with me at all. Please don’t use it as an excuse to keep pestering me again. And don’t get closer to Lin Che by even an inch.”

“No, I don’t believe it. You’re lying to me. You fabricated the results!”
