The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage novel Chapter 51

"Be clear about this. I wanted to drug Gu Jingyu, not you!" Lin Che got angrier the more she thought about it.

Little did she notice that her words had turned Gu Jingze's handsome face stone cold.

"Say that again!" Gu Jingze growled suddenly.

Lin Che thought something was not right with his voice. She turned around to see his face all sinisterly dark and icy as he inched closer towards her.

Lin Che panicked.

Right. It was his blood brother she was talking about. He should not be trifled with either.

Lin Che hastily said, "That's not what I meant. I didn't really want to drug him. I only heard from others that the drug would make people fall asleep. I was only planning to take a few pictures and leave. Who knew I'd get duped too and you'd become so beastly after eating that..."

Beastly?

Gu Jingze's face lightened.

Even though he was mad that she would rather drug Gu Jingyu, her words somehow inexplicably eased some of his anger.

Smiling slightly, he said, "Very beastly?"

Lin Che was stunned again. Her mouth was agape, revealing a set of perfect white teeth, "Well...."

Feeling a strong sense of masculinity slowly approaching, it seemed for a moment that it had already tightly enveloped her. She felt like Gu Jingze was unconsciously getting closer and closer.

She could even feel his breath grazing her cheek.

His slender fingers held up her chin as he looked down at her and smirked.

Lin Che said, "Yes, you were very beastly, were you not? Of course, that's a compliment... For all we know, it might have been because of the drug, but..."

Gu Jingze's expression darkened.

This stupid woman...

She really did not know how to talk.

Lin Che asked, "You can't be mad over something like this, right? Or is something else the matter? Is your illness acting up?"

She noticed that his eyes looked strange, burning so hot that it was as if he could burn down people with his stare.

As if he was possessed, Gu Jingze's dark pupils moved down to her. He lowered his head to look at her slightly moving lips. Her tongue looked delicate and lovable. Her lips were red and radiant against her beautiful, bright skin.

Lin Che looked at him who seemed to be getting lost in his thoughts. She felt like she was being sucked in by him. Her feet were planted firmly on the ground and she did not want to move. The more she thought about getting away, the more she could not.

His rough fingertips gently brushed across her lips. Looking into her bright and clear eyes, he said, "Let me tell you. You can't go around complimenting a man that he's beastly."

"Huh?"

"Even if it's a fact."

"This will easily cause him to misunderstand. Do you get it?"

Gu Jingyu saw guilt written all over her face. Looking deeply at her, he sat down and replied, "Hey, are you really married? You don't look like it at all. You're way too young."

Lin Che thought of what happened the night before and the rubbish texts that damned Gu Jingze sent. She hated him so much, but she could only say guiltily, "Sorry, I was too agitated yesterday and it made me say all those nasty stuff that I didn't mean to say. I feel bad about it. I'm really married and I don't think age matters when it comes to marriage. I think it's more about when you meet the right person."

Gu Jingyu hesitated. Looking at Lin Che, he sighed and nodded, "Alright. If it is that way, I won't make things hard for you. I wish you the best, but am I really a gigolo?"

"..." Lin Che shook her head immediately, "No, no. Of course you're not."

Gu Jingyu frowned and said, "So it's because I'm not your type. That's why you pretended not to see me?"

"I... It's really because... I'm married, so I don't take notice of other guys. I only feel respect and admiration for you and nothing else. You're like... You're like my dad. You're someone I truly look up to. Really," Lin Che did not want to tarnish his impression of her, so she begged him not to get upset over this matter. She tried her best to appease him.

Seeing how exaggerated and fake she was, it was almost laughable. Yet, it was not detestable. Gu Jingyu could only shake his head silently.

"I don't want to be your dad!" Gu Jingyu said, "Relax, I will delete that Weibo. I will also not bring this up again so you don't need to avoid me because of this. However, I'm really curious about your husband. Just how great is he to make you fall in love with him? He must be very mature and stable for you to want to marry him at such a young age."

"..." Lin Che thought, he should go ask his own Second Brother how he could say such shameless things.

Come to think about it, Gu Jingyu was really much more mature and stable than Gu Jingze.

"There's nothing really great. You'll be able to see him sooner or later."

"Okay..." Gu Jingyu patted her shoulder as he smiled at her.

After that, Gu Jingyu soon deleted his Weibo post. The company followed with a statement declaring that that was not a confession, but an expression of his feelings and personal thoughts. Gu Jingyu and Lin Che were just good friends who wished the public not to sabotage their friendship.
