Chapter 209 - All These Marks Were Left By You

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In other words, this elevator was a trap for Lin Che.

Fortunately, he went in too. Otherwise, if Lin Che went in by herself, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Gu Jingze stood by the door and looked at the city outside the window with one hand resting on it. He clenched it slightly.

“Go find out. I want to know who intended to harm Madam.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Inside, Lin Che was stirring awake.

She rubbed her eyes and felt that her brain was still buzzed. Gu Jingze asked, “Aren’t you going to get up? The sun is already high up.”

When Lin Che saw Gu Jingze, she felt her whole body ache. She fell back on the bed and said, “No, I’m not getting up...”

Gu Jingze chuckled and walked over, “Quick. Get up.”

“I don’t want to. Go away.”

“This is a hotel; it’s not convenient. Let’s pack up and go home.”

“No. You go first. I’ll take my time.”

Lin Che was too embarrassed to look at him. Thinking about what happened between them yesterday, she was still in disbelief. It was undeniable that her body felt good after being released. After yesterday, her body was sore but she still felt a happy feeling.

Lin Che couldn’t help but think that she was really getting old. She desired a man and even felt satisfied.

Thus, it was all the more that she couldn’t look at Gu Jingze. She felt that if she did, her body would tremble and she wouldn’t be able to concentrate. She would only think about the previous night and she would get so shy.

Gu Jingze smirked and looked at her, “Why? Do you want to stay here and reminisce about last night?”

“...” Lin Che hastily replied, “What nonsense are you talking about?!”

Gu Jingze watched Lin Che raise her arms and block her own face. Laughing, he reached out and pried her hands, “Or else, what are you doing? If you can’t bear to leave this place, you can just say it. Fine, fine. If you don’t want to leave, we shall not. I’ll stay here and keep you company. How about it? Do you want me to help you reminisce?”

“No! Go away, Gu Jingze. You... you’re teasing me on purpose!” Lin Che’s face was flushed.

“How am I teasing you? I meant every word I said. Why don’t we try?” Gu Jingze said as he took hold of her wrist and pressed her down.

Lin Che quickly jumped off the bed, “Idiot.”

She grunted and jumped on the ground. Just then, she remembered that she wasn’t wearing clothes.

She blushed even more, glancing at Gu Jingze and quickly picking up the clothes on the floor. She covered herself and dashed into the bathroom.

Gu Jingze watched her escape. He finally could not hold it any longer and burst out laughing.

They soon returned home.

Gu Jingze got out of the car and let Lin Che get off as well.

Lin Che got out while holding onto Gu Jingze’s arm. But when she touched it, Gu Jingze let out a low grunt.

Lin Che froze. She carefully noticed that he was a little different.

She quickly looked at Gu Jingze, “What’s wrong?”

“Oh,” Gu Jingze said. “It’s nothing. Let’s go in.”

Lin Che did not believe him. If that was true, he wouldn’t have grunted for no reason.

She hurriedly pulled Gu Jingze and said, “Let me take a look at what’s going on.”

As she spoke, she pulled up his sleeve.

There was a huge bruise and it looked swollen.

There was also a scratch on his arm but the blood already dried up.

“Oh my God. What happened? Why didn’t you tell me earlier,” Lin Che didn’t notice that he had these injuries previously.

Gu Jingze seemed unfazed. He tidied his sleeve and said, “It’s alright; it’s just a little injury. It’s better than losing my life in comparison. This is nothing.”

Although yesterday’s incident was still frightening, it was indeed already good enough that he managed to survive. However, injuries still had to be treated.

Lin Che quickly pulled Gu Jingze inside, “Let’s go in and talk.”

Gu Jingze was helpless and could only be dragged by Lin Che through the door.

The security guards on both sides watched. They never thought Gu Jingze would have a day like this, getting dragged in so stubbornly by a woman.

But also, this woman was their Madam. There was nothing else to say.

In the living room, Lin Che asked the maids to bring the first aid kit. She squatted there and looked at Gu Jingze’s wounds. She frowned and said, “Why are there so many wounds...”

Gu Jingze naturally did not want to tell Lin Che the truth. When the elevator dropped, he climbed out through the doors and his legs were still dangling below. It took him ages to climb out. It was truly a close call. He almost dropped with the elevator. If it was another person who didn’t have the same physique as Gu Jingze, they probably wouldn’t have been able to climb out in time.

However, he didn’t want to tell Lin Che this near-death experience.

Lin Che looked and her heart ached. She said to Gu Jingze, “Take off your shirt and let me see where else it hurts.”

It was so chaotic yesterday that she didn’t take notice.

Seeing him today, she was really taken aback by these shocking wounds.

How exactly did he escape from the elevator?

Lin Che thought about these and could only feel her heart hurt.

Gu Jingze still said, “There’s really nothing. What’s there for you to look at...”

“I said take your shirt off,” Lin Che glared at him and said stubbornly.

Gu Jingze looked at her and could only smile speechlessly. While he took off his coat, he said, “Fine... Tell me... Did you get addicted to stripping me yesterday and you haven’t gotten enough of it? You’re already making me strip as soon as we got home. It won’t be good if others saw.”

“You...” Lin Che looked angrily at him. He still had the mood to joke around?

“Gangster, who wants to look at you... I want to look at the wounds,” she scoffed, reached up, and then helped him take his clothes off.

On his back, there were strips of wounds and even some unknown marks.

She gasped, “Why on Earth are there so many wounds...”

Gu Jingze paused and then turned his head to look at himself.

From what he could see on his shoulders, there were strips of marks.

He laughed and went beside Lin Che’s ear, “These were not caused by the elevator.”

“What?”

“You left behind all these, don’t you remember? You’re the real murderer.”

“...” Lin Che’s mouth twitched.

Thinking about yesterday... She seemed to have a period of excitement...

He smiled and said, “Naughty girl. Now, do you know how rough you were with me? I was bullied by you for the whole night.”

Although he enjoyed being bullied by her.

“...”

Lin Che was at a loss. She quickly said, “Bastard, that’s nonsense... I... I was just... That was because you were too rough. It was all because of you...”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Fine fine fine. Why are you panicking? I’m not saying that it was bad. These marks are fine. I take it as your acknowledgment towards my skills.”

“...” She really wanted to cover his head and bash him up.

Such a filthy mouth!
