Gu Jingze’s shoulder was stained with blood from her ruthless bite. Although the wound was definitely not huge, his shirt was too white and clean. Thus, a little stain looked more obvious and grave than it actually was.
Gu Jingze frowned as he looked at his side. He decided to unbutton his shirt.
By the time Lin Che realized it, his chest was already revealed in front of her.
His muscular chest looked much stronger than before.
Since he had nothing to do at home, he vented his boredom on working out. Over the past few years, his body really became more ripped.
Lin Che was stunned. Then, she snapped back to reality. Why was he stripping?!
“Gu Jingze, what… What are you doing?!”
Gu Jingze looked up and saw Lin Che walk around him.
He took one step and blocked Lin Che’s path. “Don’t run away.”
Lin Che looked up and bumped into a firm wall that was his chest. Every single muscle was extremely attractive and unavoidable in her eyes.
His masculine scent was distinct. This familiar smell made her slightly confused in a brief moment.
“Gu Jingze, you… Are you trying to seduce me?!” This man was too shameless. He already stripped himself as soon as he came in!
Gu Jingze paused and raised his brow. He watched her try to avoid his gaze while he grabbed her wrists and held her hands back, pushing her against the wall.
A soft thud…
She looked up and could see his lips and cheeks drawing close. Those charming eyes were almost pressed against the top of her head. The air suddenly felt thin and she could hardly breathe.
“Gu. Jing. Ze. Get away from me!”
“If seduction was useful… I wouldn’t mind seducing you.” His voice was warm as it curled tightly around the corners of his lips.
“It’s useless! There are plenty of men like you overseas. They are tall and large and they are also very handsome!”
“Ha… According to what I know, the only person you’ve been in contact with was Mu Feiran. You’re not close to anyone else. Even if you are, none of them can be better than me.”
Lin Che looked fiercely at him. She hated his confidence now.
However, Gu Jingze’s expression changed. He gazed at Lin Che with deep affection and said softly, “No matter what you do, I won’t let you leave. Lin Che, even if you hate me or find me annoying, I will keep you here.”
Lin Che said, “Yes, I hate you! You’re annoying. Let go of me!”
“Lin Che, I still want you to stay here. You say that this is not home and that this place has nothing to do with you. This is not the case. You are everywhere here. Everything here has your shadow. Ever since you left, I have been staying in other places and have never stepped in here because this place has been waiting for its mistress. So, how can you leave?”
Lin Che was almost getting sucked into his abyssal eyes. However, her logic told her that she should not.
These were only sweet-nothings from this stinky man. She was not going to believe him.
“Your glib tongue has improved over the years. It looks like Miss Yun must have contributed to it.” She turned away and then spoke.
Gu Jingze stared at her. “Yun Luo? She is only a friend’s daughter. I’m in contact with her only because her family hoped that I could find her a doctor to treat her. You know that I have my own research center because of my illness and it has many cutting-edge technologies in the world. She had not been able to find a cure and her family was very anxious. They hoped that my research center could help her do some research into a new type of heart valve for her.”
Lin Che grunted. “Sure. Research, research. The two of you researched all the way into bed together.”
“…” Gu Jingze nodded sideways with his palms rested against the wall. He looked at her expression. “So you’re not willing to come back because you’re jealous, right?”
“…” Lin Che looked up angrily. “Stop being so shameless. Who is getting jealous over you? If Niannian hadn’t run over here by himself, I would never have come here!”
This made her remember why she came here. Her expression changed. “Where is Niannian?”
Gu Jingze said, “My people are taking great care of him. Don’t worry. He’s my son and I naturally won’t let any harm come to him.”
“Get lost. You wish. He’s my son.”
“Your son is my son.”
“Forget it. He belongs to only me and he has nothing to do with you. It has always been just the two of us all these years. What are you?” Thinking about it, her gaze grew more determined. She stared at him and suddenly remember something. Before he could react, she hit the wound on his shoulder once again.
“Ouch…” Gu Jingze winced and instinctively released his grip.
Lin Che slipped out from under his arms.
Gu Jingze endured the pain and quickly chased after her.
“Lin Che, don’t run. I know you’re unhappy. I promise you that I will never leave you alone again. Not for the rest of my life!”
“Sorry but I don’t believe that!” Lin Che opened the door.
Gu Jingze frowned. “You can’t escape.”
Lin Che gritted her teeth. She knew that everybody here was under his orders and it would be difficult for her to leave. She turned around and looked at him. “Then it’ll be like what you said. I can do whatever I want. In that case, I want to see my son now and I don’t want to see you. I can stay here, but you must listen to me. Otherwise, I’ll use every single method I know to make sure I get out of here.”
Gu Jingze listened to her threat and paused. He deliberated for a while and nodded. “Okay, I promise you.”
Lin Che asked, “Well, if this room is mine, can you leave now?”
Gu Jingze looked at her deeply. “Okay. I’ll bring Niannian here right now.”
Lin Che waited for him to retreat and she closed the door unceremoniously.
On the outside, Gu Jingze looked at the door shut tightly in front of him. He sighed lightly and ordered some attendants at the side, “Bring Young Master here.”
However, no matter what. she was here now.
He wanted to fetch her personally from Seattle and solve the problem between them at the same time. However, his plan was all ruined now.
Not long after, the child was sent to the room.
Lin Che looked at Gu Shinian and pulled him in exasperatedly.
“You little rabbit. Who said that you could sneak your way here? How did you get a plane ticket and accommodation?!”
If he did not run here, why would she come back? Now, she was even locked up here and she needed to deal with that irritating Gu Jingze.
That was right. He was annoying.
