Chapter 173: Who Else Should I Concern Myself With, If Not You?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the darkness of the night, Gu Jingze looked down at Lin Che. Her shoulders were trembling slightly. The sight of her narrow and small shoulders made him feel an overwhelming tenderness and protectiveness.

His heart ached a little and he was also at a slight loss as to what to do. He looked at her. “Lin Che, tell me. What’s wrong with you?”

Lin Che merely came closer and closer to Gu Jingze step by step but did not let him approach her. “I just dislike you intensely, can’t I?”

“You dislike me?” Gu Jingze looked at her in astonishment. “Why do you dislike me?”

“There’s no reason. I just don’t like you when I look at you!” How could this man be so long-winded as well?

Lin Che simply hated that he did not leave even when she threw a tantrum at him. Why was he still here when she had already said so much?

As he held onto her arm, waves were surging in his black pupils at this moment and they were filled with concern. His gaze was like a torch that nearly made her combust when it was fixed on her.

Lin Che merely felt that she seemed to be a greedy scoundrel. The closer Gu Jingze got to her, the more and more she wanted from him. To be honest, she was no different from Mo Huiling. They were both this selfish; they wanted to completely own a man and have all of his concern and attention instead of just a small portion of it.

Right now, she simply had the urge to seize all the concern he reserved for Mo Huiling, for herself.

It must be because she had never been cared for by someone like this. Thus, when Gu Jingze merely treated her a little better, she was simply unable to bear it.

However, this was perhaps just a part of Gu Jingze’s gentlemanly etiquette.

Gu Jingze held onto her tightly. His hand clutched her arm tighter and tighter, and he was completely reluctant to let go even a little bit. “Lin Che, what exactly is wrong with you?! Your complexion is really bad. Are you seriously ill?”

“No. I’m just asking you to leave me alone from now on!” Lin Che said in a trembling voice.

Gu Jingze gazed into her fragile eyes. The deep pain in that pair of originally clear eyes made his heart wrench. He gripped her wrist in a tight hold. “You’re my wife. Who else should I concern myself with, if not you?”

Lin Che blanked out. As she looked in his pair of resolute eyes, a slight sweetness began to rise in her chest.

Yes. She was his wife.

However, she was not his lover.

“I’m the wife whom you will inevitably divorce,” She said softly in a chilling tone.

Gu Jingze stared into her eyes unflinchingly. His deep and bottomless eyes were like those of a hibernating beast, focused and entrancing. “But still, you’re currently my wife despite that fact.”

Lin Che was actually left momentarily speechless. She simply gazed into his eyes with her lips slightly parted. In that instant, she just felt that she had already fallen into his eyes. She felt like she was an ant that had been helplessly sucked into his eyes without any ability to resist at all.

A man like this...

How could anyone possibly refute him?

How could anyone possibly resist him?

It was no wonder that Mo Huiling loved him so much and to the extent that she was willing to easily give up her own life because of her love for him.

It was likely that only a woman who had never experienced it would find it inconceivable. However, he was simply a man who effortlessly entranced people.

However, at the thought of this, another thought came to Lin Che abruptly. Yes. Perhaps at one point in time in the past, he had been equally good to Mo Huiling as he was to her now.

Lin Che shortly regained some of her rationality. She looked down and said, “But I still don’t want you to concern yourself with me.”

“Why?”

“You shouldn’t be too concerned about me.” She looked at him.

Gu Jingze was even more confused. “Why shouldn’t I be? Could it be that you didn’t want to see me only because I was so concerned about you? Is it wrong for me to care about you? What person wouldn’t like concern from others?”

“Yes. I’m precisely that kind of a strange person. If you think that I’m no good, you can just go back to look for Mo Huiling right now. She definitely isn’t as troublesome as me.”

While saying this, Lin Che pursed her lips and turned her head. Although it was not her intention, traces of jealousy could be detected from her words. It was already so obvious that it could not be more obvious.

It was just that she herself had yet to realize it.

Upon hearing this, Gu Jingze really thought about it carefully. When he had been together with Mo Huiling, indeed there had not been so many problems.

“But it’s definitely true that Huiling never made me worry like you do.”

“You...” Lin Che was so angry that her face was twisted. She pushed Gu Jingze and said, “Then, go and look for your Huiling. Don’t come and look for me!”

It was too obvious that she was acting like a child and behaving shamelessly. Gu Jingze nearly laughed because of how she said one thing but meant another. She did not even know how to act. She said that she wanted to push him away but her expression was clearly full of reluctance.

And yet, she still called herself a professional actress.

Gu Jingze realized that her acting was truly terrible in her daily life when there was no script. She had never succeeded.

“Hey, but I’m already here.” Gu Jingze held her back in one swift motion. He looked at Lin Che and said, “I came all the way here. Don’t you feel bad if you just chase me away like this?

“Didn’t you say that I’m no good?! Then, why are you still staying here, Gu Jingze?” Her eyes flashed as she turned around to look at Gu Jingze seriously. “Do you actually feel that I really have many shortcomings?”

Gu Jingze thought about it seriously and said, “It’s true that you have quite a number of shortcomings.”

“What?” Lin Che exploded again.

However, Gu Jingze even began to start describing them in detail for her, “For instance, you’re very sloppy and clumsy. You move a lot in your sleep, you have a terrible sleeping posture, you drool, you love using your hands to eat, you chew too loudly, you speak in a very fierce tone, you curse too much, you love chattering, you’re not gentle, and you’re not quiet at all...”

Lin Che’s face became darker and darker. She glared in Gu Jingze’s direction but at the same time, she felt that she had no good retort.

When she thought about it, these shortcomings... it seemed that she did have them all.

“If I have so many shortcomings... then why aren’t you leaving? Go, go, go. Don’t stay here and get irritated by me.” Lin Che was so angry that she stretched out her arm to push him.

Gu Jingze quickly smiled and turned his head back, grabbing her arm instead. “Alright, alright. You told me to say it, but after I said it all, you still hit me.”

“You...” Lin Che was blushing. This man, did he not at all understand a woman’s thoughts? She really did not know how Mo Huiling had tolerated a fool like him for so many years.

“If you really feel that I’m so troublesome, shouldn’t you leave quickly? What are you still doing here?”

“I talked about all your shortcomings, but... I’m already used to them.”

When Lin Che heard this, she paused slightly. She looked down and sneaked a glance at his expression.

Gu Jingze was smiling faintly as he looked at her rare expression of slight awkwardness. On the contrary, he did not hate it as he looked at her.

Thinking about it, he felt it very strange too. Why was it that she had so many shortcomings, but he slowly began to feel that it was actually pretty good for her to be like this?

This was the real Lin Che. If she really became like a well-bred young lady one day and no longer blustered, he might feel uncomfortable then.

Seeing that she was frozen, Gu Jingze seized the opportunity to grab her around the waist with one arm.

Lin Che seized up immediately before hastily attempting to struggle free.

However, Gu Jingze hugged her in a death hold and refused to let go. “Don’t move, don’t move. I dare you to push me again. Just you watch how I would punish you.”

“What... Gu Jingze, what are you doing? Let go of me. I have so many shortcomings. Why don’t you go and look for your Miss Mo? Quick, let go of me!”

Gu Jingze lowered his head and looked at Lin Che. Her face was completely red. “Lin Che... Are you jealous?”
