Gu Jingze looked at his hand for some time . To be honest, he had not expected himself to actually hit her .

It was just that the extreme fury in his heart earlier had been like a ball of fire burning inside . It made his entire body get angry as well .

Thus, he involuntarily slapped her without hesitation .

Gu Jingze stood there unmoving and looked at her .

Mo Huiling bit down on her lips as she glared at Gu Jingze, "Gu Jingze, I've been with you for so many years . How dare you hit me because of another woman?! In the past, you could not bear to see me suffer even a bit of pain . Your heart would ache when I bumped into something even slightly . And now, you actually hit me…"

When Mo Huiling finished speaking, she directly barged in between the two of them and ran out while crying .

Lin Che turned her head back again after she saw Mo Huiling leave . Gu Jingze was standing there rooted to the ground with a very ugly expression on his face as well . Lin Che only felt awkward and did not know how to best deal with the situation .

After all, this was something that had happened between the two of them . Yet, at the same time, it had happened because of her .

She looked at Gu Jingze and fidgeted slowly before stroking her hair and saying with a lot of difficulties, "Gu Jingze, are you alright? Sorry, I…"

Gu Jingze immediately regained his bearings upon hearing Lin Che's voice . He looked down and grabbed her hand swiftly . Fortunately, the soup was not hot . Her hand was only slightly red .

Gu Jingze gestured at a distance for the maid to come over .

"Go and take the ointment for burns . "

Lin Che wanted to say that she was fine and that she did not really feel any pain; she only felt ashamed .

However, she looked at Gu Jingze's gloomy expression and did not say a word .

Gu Jingze lowered his head and lifted her hand . He applied the ointment on it carefully .

"Go and change your clothes . "

It was only then that Lin Che remembered that her clothes were still in a sorry state .

She nodded and went to change her clothes . When she came out, Gu Jingze was already seated there quietly . He continued to eat his unfinished dinner .

However, the atmosphere in the dining room seemed to have plummeted to rock bottom within that short span of time . It made her feel extremely uncomfortable .

Lin Che walked over to him, lowered her head, and said, "Gu Jingze, I'm sorry…"

Gu Jingze raised his head to look at Lin Che . "It has nothing to do with you . "

"But…"

"I'm the one who didn't handle the situation properly . It's not your fault . " Gu Jingze put down his chopsticks . "It's a fact that she did something wrong . No matter what, she can't do that . But it's also a fact that I shouldn't have hit her . I'm just a bit vexed . I'm not someone who would ever lay a hand on another person . I was momentarily impulsive earlier and I didn't manage to control myself . "

Gu Jingze had never thought that he would be a compulsive and irrational person . However, when he saw the soup in Mo Huiling's hands pour down on Lin Che's body earlier, Gu Jingze really did not know what was wrong with him . What made him unable to control himself? This was something that had never happened before and it was very difficult for him to accept it at the moment .

Indeed, he had never hit someone before, much less a woman, and even much less Mo Huiling .

He was not some saint . However, whatever he did, there was never a need for him to raise his hand either .

Gu Jingze lifted his head . "I'm the one who should be apologizing . Are you alright?"

Lin Che hastily patted herself . "Of course I'm alright . "

Gu Jingze nodded his head and went upstairs .

The balcony on the third floor was very big . The foliage there was very beautiful and tended to by the gardeners .

Lin Che followed Gu Jingze upstairs . She looked on as Gu Jingze stood outside alone behind the balustrade .

Knowing that he was not in a good mood, Lin Che's mood began to worsen as well . She walked towards him with an intense feeling of self-admonishment still in her heart . If it was not for her, perhaps Gu Jingze would not have gotten into an argument with Mo Huiling .

"Gu Jingze, you…" She said abruptly, "Let me ask you a simple math question . "

Seeing that Gu Jingze did not turn his head, Lin Che said, "This is a primary school math problem . The question is: If a man takes five minutes to shower and a woman takes half an hour to shower, then how many minutes will they take if they shower together?"

Gu Jingze's shoulders tensed up instantly . He was still perplexed .

Lin Che laughed out loud and said, "Xiaoming replied, 'Idiot, of course, it's half an hour . The time they take to shower together overlaps . ' Xiaohua said, 'Idiot, the length of time they take to shower depends on how long the man can last!'"

Gu Jingze sputtered involuntarily . He turned his head to look at Lin Che . She was smiling and her face was slightly red .

After understanding the true meaning of the joke, he thought speechlessly that she was really a fool .

However, in the next moment, he pulled Lin Che to him in one swift motion . "Come . Come over here . "

Lin Che froze . She felt him pull her wrist and bring her into his embrace .

Lin Che's head was leaning on his shoulder . He placed his hand gently on her back . Thereafter, he lowered his head and closed his eyes as he took a whiff of the scent of her hair . Lin Che still wanted to move, but she heard him say softly into her ear, "Don't move; let me hug you for a while . "

Lin Che froze there . Her body was slightly stiff as he hugged her like this . She could still feel his hand on her back as he caressed it gently . The heat from his large palm made her feel warm at the moment, without feeling any desire at all . However, an embrace like this made her feel so good . It was as if time had stopped here for them and made her feel reluctant to part from him…

As Gu Jingze embraced her, he felt as if she had some bizarre medicinal effect . It did not take a long time for his heart to follow suit and quiet down . He no longer felt so uncomfortable as well .

However, he still wanted to continue hugging her . It was as if he yearned for her scent . He lowered his head and breathed deeply . With each breath, he became more addicted and could not bear to let go of her .

Lin Che sensed that he was still unmoving . Thinking that he was really in a very bad mood, she sighed and said calmly, "If you're worried about her, then give her a call to ask how she is . Actually, you should have chased after her to check on her earlier . It's pretty dangerous for her to just leave like this too . Furthermore, she will definitely be very angry . But honestly, women only need a bit of cajoling to feel better . It all depends on your attitude . Women still have very tender hearts . "

Gu Jingze loosened Lin Che slightly from his embrace and looked at her solemn expression . Dumbfounded, he said, "Are you giving me love advice?"

"Yes . " Lin Che too did not want to see Gu Jingze in a bad mood .

Gu Jingze said, "You're so silly . "

He tapped her forehead lightly . "Silly you . Actually, I'm not in a bad mood because she got angry . "

"What?" Was that not the case? Lin Che looked at him in confusion . Then, why was he in a bad mood?

Gu Jingze said, "I'm in a bad mood because I couldn't control my emotions . I was at fault for this incident . I should have been able to control myself, but I don't know what happened then . "

It was actually because of this…

Flabbergasted, Lin Che looked at him . "How could you? Because of this…"

Gu Jingze lifted his head silently . As he looked at Lin Che, he felt that he was only so impulsive because of her .

He actually lost his temper at Mo Huiling to this extent because of Lin Che…

He really thought that it was a little inconceivable . He gazed deeply at Lin Che's small face and said, "Lin Che, I think, towards you, I…"

However, before he finished speaking, Gu Jingze's cell phone began to ring .

Mo Huiling's number showed on the screen .

Gu Jingze frowned and pressed the button to receive the call . However, the voice he heard over the phone was not Mo Huiling's…
