The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage novel Chapter 153

"Because of Gu Jingze?" He smiled bleakly as he spoke.

Lin Che shook her head and looked at Qin Qing. At the very least, this was the young boy that she had liked in the past. "The reason for liking or disliking someone isn't because of someone else."

If you liked someone, you simply liked them. There was never a need to compare them to someone else.

She turned her head and simply walked out. She switched on her phone after a lot of difficulty and saw that there were already countless missed calls.

When she walked out, she immediately saw the butler presently waiting outside for her.

Lin Che said frantically, "Butler, how did you know that I was here?"

The butler said quickly, "Sir looked for you for a very long time. He said that you didn't meet him for dinner and he didn't know where you had gone."

Lin Che slapped her head. "Right, I completely forgot about dinner. Something cropped up on my end."

"The subordinates will handle this matter for you. Madam, you can just go back first."

Lin Che said, "Alright then. There's nothing much else to do here anyway." Lin Che got into the car that was to send her home.

She was thinking about the butler who was always calm and steady but looked extremely unusual today. She did not know what had happened and hurriedly grabbed the driver in front. "Is your Sir angry?"

This man was so petty. He was definitely angry.

The driver looked at Lin Che awkwardly. He knew that this Madam of his was usually loud, careless, and did not put on airs. However, today Sir was indeed...

None of them dared to speak another word. He could only say, "Madam, you'll know when you get back."

With one look, Lin Che knew that things were not good. She thought frantically, Could it be that he was so angry because she had stood him up?

Knowing that she was at fault in this matter, she hastily drafted a speech in her mind and proceeded to enter.

Coincidentally, Gu Jingze was walking out in quick steps towards her. He immediately saw Lin Che pushing the door and coming in. His jet-black gaze flashed with slight gloominess. His heavy gaze landed on Lin Che. He glanced at her before directly skimming over her head and walking straight outside.

As Lin Che watched him stretch his long legs apart and walk out, she quickly said, "I'm sorry. It's my fault. Gu Jingze, I shouldn't have stood you up and shouldn't have ignored your calls. But it's because I really had something on and was momentarily flustered, so I didn't notice, I..." His gloomy gaze turned to her. The lines on his face that he had inadvertently concealed followed suit and turned completely cold. As if he was a stone that had been completely steeped in ice, a chill emanated from him that penetrated to the bottom of her heart.

He really did not know if he should be angrier that she simply did not pick up her phone or because she actually did not pick up her phone because of him...

He looked at Lin Che coldly. Momentarily flustered?

Why didn't she say who she had gotten flustered over?

Gu Jingze stretched his long legs out again and walked out in large strides.

Lin Che panicked and called out from behind, "Gu Jingze, are you really angry?"

Seeing that Gu Jingze did not even turn his head back, she hurriedly chased after him. "Gu Jingze, why are you being like this? You just got so angry without even asking me one question. It's really because something cropped up. Also, I just stood you up once. Do you really have to get this angry? You..."

"Explain?" Gu Jingze stared at Lin Che. "What explanation do I even need?"

Lin Che held onto the car door.

Gu Jingze's gaze landed on her hand. He stretched out his hand and gently pushed it aside. "Do I have to wait for you to explain that you went to the hospital for the sake of the man you love? That you didn't pick up my calls because you had to look after a sick man?" "I..." She was indeed stupid, she thought. He must have known. That was why he instructed the butler to look for her at the hospital.

There was nothing that Gu Jingze did not know.

"But..."

"I'll just ask you this. Do you still remember that he's your older sister's fiance? Someone whom you're supposed to call brother-in-law?"

11J I!
