Chapter 157: Untitled
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Che whimpered. She felt the sensation of boiling heat cause her body to tremble in waves. It was as if a shock of electricity had hit the top of her head and continued to attack downwards. Her heart and body were already shaken up but it instantly made her tighten up completely.
As he hugged her, she felt the heat from all over his body. Her hand was still pressing against his front chest, but it was also frighteningly hot there. It even made her momentarily feel that he was just a fragile doll. She did not dare to simply touch him and did not dare to use force against him either.
He was kissing her with more and more force. It was as if he wanted to suck her entire soul out of her body along with everything else.
As if this was still not enough, he wanted even more. Just like a starving leopard, he bit her lips very hard.
Consumed in pain, she groaned faintly.
Fresh blood oozed out and the acrid taste seemed to make him even more crazed.
With a simple turn of his body, he pushed her hard onto the blanket.
His body was as hot as a fireball as it clamped down tightly on her.
He gripped both of Lin Che’s hands tightly and pressed it down on both sides.
All ten of his long, slender fingers hooked her fingers tightly. His lips left her mouth and moved all the way down.
Lin Che felt her body tighten up even more. Her fingers clapsed his fingers tightly. She became completely alarmed and nervous as well. But then, she lost her mind over and over again with each kiss.
Although this was not Lin Che’s first time, it was still very painful.
It had happened too suddenly the last time. When she recalled it now, she still felt like it was a dream.
However, this time, it happened in an astonishingly detailed manner.
Too much time had passed since the first time. She felt like she was experiencing it again. Her entire body was in pain as if it had been cooked through.
Gu Jingze released Lin Che and lay there while panting. He only turned his head after a long time to look at the marks spread all over Lin Che’s body. He did not know if it was due to the fever or if his face really was red. At this moment, it looked just like iron that had turned red from high heat. It was swelled up and red.
He said to Lin Che, “Uhm... go take a shower.”
Lin Che did not move at all. She turned her body to the opposite side in reluctance. “I don’t want to... ”
Gu Jingze did not have a choice. He could only prop himself up and pat her. However, she still did not move. So he could only say, “I’ll help you,” as he lifted Lin Che in his arms in one swift motion.
Lin Che whined. She could still feel the heat on his body but it also seemed to have gotten much better than it had been just now.
It was just that the sweat that was sticky on her skin made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
He said, “It’s uncomfortable if you don’t shower. Let’s go.”
Lin Che did not move. She sensed that he had already placed her in the bathtub. The temperature of the water raining down on her was just nice. As it washed her body, it immediately woke her up after some struggle. Her face was red as she looked at Gu Jingze. “There’s no need. I’ll do it myself.”
Gu Jingze frowned and looked at her. “It’s alright. I’ll do it. Don’t move.”
While saying this, he had already held Lin Che down and started to wash her gently and meticulously.
Lin Che did not dare to look at him at all. She turned her head away with her hand covering her face. After a lot of difficulties, he finished washing her. Then, she sensed that he was retrieving the bathrobe behind her. He wrapped her whole body in the bathrobe before lifting her in his arms and carrying her back to the bed step by step.
It was only when Lin Che sensed that Gu Jingze had left again, probably to take a shower himself too, that Lin Che pulled the whole bathrobe so that it was tighter around her. Her face was so hot that she could die from the heat.
She did not know how much time had passed. However, Gu Jingze had still not returned. Lin Che was still nestled in the bathrobe. She did not seem to hear any sound coming from the bathroom except for the sound of rushing water. Immediately, she felt that something was wrong. She quickly flipped her body around and got up. After wearing the bathrobe properly, she hurried to the bathroom.
“Gu Jingze? You’re still not done showering?” Lin Che first knocked on the door. However, there was no sound. Shocked, Lin Che hastily pulled the door open.
Only to see that Gu Jingze had actually fallen to the floor just like that.
Lin Che was truly frightened. She quickly ran in and pulled Gu Jingze up.
“Gu Jingze, Gu Jingze wake up... ”
He himself was already like this. Where exactly had he found the strength to carry her here for a shower earlier?
When Lin Che recalled this, she still felt guilty. However, right now she had finally stopped thinking about her embarrassing state earlier. It was not convenient for her to call for help in this situation either. She could only hold him up herself as they walked towards the bed. After struggling for a while, she toppled him onto the bed, dressed him properly in his pajamas, and laid the blanket over him. She was already sweating buckets. She touched his forehead only to feel that its temperature had risen again. Instinctively, she quickly called Chen Yucheng.
Chen Yucheng was obviously still in a dream-like state. When he heard her voice he said groggily, “Madam Gu, what happened again? ”
“The situation isn’t good. Gu Jingze just fainted. Quick, come and take a look.”
Lin Che was really frightened. She had never seen Gu Jingze this weak.
He seemed to have lost all of his strength. As he lay there, it was as if he would stop breathing in the next moment.
This tall and strongly-built man had always given her the impression that he could do anything and stood high above the masses. However, his illness has unexpectedly gotten so severe today. It really made her feel completely at a loss all of a sudden.
Lin Che applied an ice compress on him for a while. Thereafter, she took a towel and continuously wiped him down. She wiped his arms, his underarms, and his front chest. Before Chen Yucheng arrived, she did not stop even for a moment.
She did this until Chen Yucheng finally came.
When he knocked on the door and entered, Lin Che quickly ran to him. “Doctor Chen, quick. Take a look and tell me exactly what to do now.”
Chen Yucheng walked in and took a look. It seemed that he also had not expected Gu Jingze to suddenly have such a high fever.
“No way. Why did his fever suddenly rise? Did he take his medicine to bring down his fever?”
“He took it but it had no effect.”
Chen Yucheng drew some blood from Gu Jingze. Thereafter, he put him on an intravenous drip. While looking at the ice compress and the towel that Lin Che had placed at the side, he smiled and said, “Looks like Madam Gu took pretty good care of him.”
Flabbergasted, Lin Che said, “Pretty good care? If you still didn’t come, I would have died from shock.”
“I just wanted to give Madam Gu an opportunity to shine.”
“If I continued to do it even for a little while longer, Gu Jingze would’ve died.”
Chen Yucheng packed up and left. “I’ll just wait outside. You can call for me if there’s any problem.”
Lin Che nodded and turned to look at Gu Jingze. She kept feeling sad.
After Chen Yucheng left, Lin Che simply stayed by his side and watched over him. Occasionally, she would check up on him.
The sky gradually began to brighten.
When Gu Jingze woke up, Lin Che was bent over the side of the bed. It looked like a very uncomfortable sleeping position.
Gu Jingze moved and Lin Che immediately propped herself up.
“How are you? How are you?” Seeing that Gu Jingze had finally awoken, Lin Che instantly threw herself at him. “How are you, Gu Jingze? Do you still feel discomfort anywhere?”
Gu Jingze frowned and looked at Lin Che. “Did you just bend over the bed and sleep here?”
“Yes... ” Lin Che wiped her mouth because she thought that there was drool on her face from having slept there bent over. However, she did not really feel anything there.
Gu Jingze frowned and looked at her small movements. He shook his head speechlessly.
After Gu Jingze woke up, Chen Yucheng came in very soon after and began to examine him.
