181 CAN''T BE SUCH A NUISANCE ANYMORE
The two of them soon returned to the room. Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze in puzzlement and said,
"That Xiao Xiao girl looks really young. I don''t think it''s right to introduce her to your elder brother.
Their age difference must be at least ten years."
Gu Jingze said, "This is the God-knows-how-many times a girl has been introduced to Brother
already. He has always rejected them."
"Really? I think he''s pretty nice to her."
"Brother is like that. He doesn''t show it on his face whether he likes a person or not."
Lin Che pouted, "Then any woman who marries him is going to have a tough life."
Gu Jingze replied, "Not everybody is as lucky as you to marry such a great husband like me."
"Ha, you''re praising yourself too much!"
Lin Che thought that Gu Jingze was praising himself more and more.
However, the way he was now made him a lot more down-to-earth.
Lin Che suddenly thought that when they were together sometimes, it really felt like it was just them
in their own world. There was no Mo Huiling or any other outsiders.
However, when they walked out of the room, reality hit back like a wave crashing on the shore.
Ultimately, they did not have that kind of normal marriage.
Early in the next morning, Gu Jingze came in and saw that Lin Che was still asleep. Thus, he called
Lin Che, "Lin Che, time to wake up."
Lin Che rolled over and continued sleeping.
Gu Jingze shook his head and walked to the other side, "If you''re not going to wake up, I will take
away the nket."
"Take it, take it. I''m not wearing any clothes," she said.
"Not wearing clothes? Well then, I''m taking the nket away. Don''t you regret it," Gu Jingze moved
closer to her.
"Ah, I''m not going to regret it. You''ve already seen all of my body anyway."
"..." Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che speechlessly. Her skin was getting thicker and thicker.
"Hurry up, get up. Don''t make me force you."
"I''m not getting up. I''m not getting up," Lin Che refused to listen to him. Gu Jingze went beside her.
She rolled over again. This time, her back faced Gu Jingze. She was adamant in not waking up.
Gu Jingze leaned in and looked at her petite face. His hand reached up and pinched her nose.
Lin Che frowned but did not move. Slowly, her expression rxed and her head eventually tilted to
one side...
Gu Jingze thought, Lin Che lost consciousness and immediately released his hand.
There was cold sweat on his back as his brain nked out.

He quickly touched her nose and tried to feel her breathing. He froze.
She really was not breathing.
"Lin Che? Lin Che, are you okay?" Gu Jingze shook her gently and then thought of giving CPR. He
put his two palms carefully on her chest and pumped twice. There was no reaction.
"Lin Che?"
Gu Jingze''s voice became hoarse.
Instead, Lin Che suddenly chuckled a little and then burst intoughter as she opened her eyes.
Gu Jingze was shocked as he watched Lin Che sit up.
Her bright eyes moved while she looked at Gu Jingze. Sheughed and said, "You forgot that I''m a
professional actress. I used to be particrly good at being a corpse and not moving for a long
time."

As Lin Che said this, Gu Jingze red resentfully at her. His face stiffened as he got off the bed.
Lin Che noticed. Was he angry?
She quickly jumped off the bed and chased after Gu Jingze, "What''s wrong? Are you angry? I was
just ying with you. You can''t possibly get angry that easily?"
Gu Jingze pushed her hand away, "Don''t touch me."
"Well, I may have stopped my breathing but my heart was still beating. Didn''t you feel it when you
ced your hands there?"
His eyes moved. The darkness in his eyes seemed to have gone deeper.
At that time, he was so worried that he lost all sense of logic. How would he have noticed something
like a heartbeat?
Gu Jingze only felt that he wasn''t himself at all at that moment. He thought that she really was not
breathing and almost called for help.
That was why he got even angrier.
She really scared him.
"Ah, you can''t be serious. It was just a joke." "Heartless!" Gu Jingze turned around and eximed
hatefully.
"You just don''t have a good sense of humor."
"Don''t you ever y that kind of joke again," Gu Jingze turned back and looked at her with his deep
eyes. Her heart moved.
Seeing his serious expression, Lin Che could only silently nod her head.
Gu Jingze turned back and walked out.
Lin Che''s eyes followed Gu Jingze as she said, "Seriously, it was just a joke. There''s no need to be
so angry."
"You think everybody is as heartless as you and can y stupid jokes every day?"
"If everybody lived like you, life would be too boring."
"Because normal people like us have normal pursuits and that is to strive in our career and improve
in our work. We''re not heartless like you."
"Ha! That is called ''work hard, y hard''. Even if we die, you''ll definitely die before me. You''re
always so busy and don''t even have time to rest or y. You''re going to die from working too
much."
"At least I''ll leave behind a legacy."
The maids outside looked in shock at the two of them bickering.
Since when did their meticulous Second Young Master suddenly talk so much to someone else?
Looking at the two of them arguing like a regr married couple and entering the dining room, the
maids greeted them. They said to Gu Jingze, "Second Young Master, First Young Master is
preparing to leave and would like you toe over."
Lin Che watched Gu Jingze leave and then went to wash up beforeing back to eat.
The maids looked at Lin Che sitting by herself. They smiled and said, "We haven''t seen Second
Young Master be so lively like that in a long time. Madam, your rtionship with Second Young
Master is really getting better."
Lin Che asked, "Is it? No way. I thought he had always been this way."
"Definitely not," the maids said. "Ever since Second Young Master started handling the family
business when he turned fourteen years old, he never smiled like this."
"Really? It must have been rather good too when he was with Miss Mo."
"He has never also. Second Young Master and Miss Mo feel more like a formal rtionship only. He
was never as lively as he is with you."
"Yes, we all feel this way. Second Young Master and Madam are a perfect match."
Lin Che heard this and was very happy.
Deep down, she thought that these people were naturally saying good things about her and Gu
Jingze and not Mo Huiling just because they were in front of her. She was the Madam, after all.
However, she still felt rather happy about it.
When Gu Jingze was done settling some things at home, he took Lin Che and prepared to leave.
Lin Che asked Gu Jingze, "Did Big Brother ask you to send him off? Seriously, you two live in the
same city and yet don''t even see each other once in a long while."
Gu Jingze said, "Big Brother only said that he thinks he and the Xiao family''s daughter will not be
together."
"Oh, why? Is it because she''s too young? I feel the same way too, actually. They don''t match."
"Big Brother felt that she''s not mature enough. She isn''t fit to be the First Lady."
"Alright..." Lin Che said. "But I think that if Big Brother meets someone he truly likes, he shouldn''t
care too much about maturity. I guess he just doesn''t like her."
"Hmph. You''re so naive. Sometimes, marriage is not about whether you like that person or not."
Lin Che froze. Come to think about it, she and Gu Jingze were a ssic example.
Just then, the car stopped. Gu Jingze wanted to settle some matter at the shopping mall on the way.
