The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage novel Chapter 253

Lin Che looked up and wanted to get up but a huge hand pressed her shoulder down.

Lin Che turned around to see Gu Jingze with bloodshot eyes. His expression was the usual coldness but his eyes looked tired from his lack of sleep. It seemed like he came here immediately after finishing his work.

Before Lin Che could speak, Gu Jingze already hushed her and pointed to the bed. He pulled Lin Che up and brought her out silently.

Outside, Gu Jingze gently released her hand and asked her, "How was the operation?"

Hearing his voice so hoarse, Lin Che asked, "Were you working all night with no sleep?"

Gu Jingze replied, "A few cases were sent over together so I handled them together. It's fine. They are already more or less settled."

Lin Che felt uncomfortable seeing him suffer and yet she couldn't help him.

She hated herself for not studying economics back then. She couldn't help him at all.

And now, she even troubled him. He was so busy but he still came to show his concern for Granny.

"Granny is fine. The operation was fruitful but the lab results are not back yet," she said.

Gu Jingze nodded and held her face, "Don't worry too much then."

"Yes, Granny will be fine. You don't have to worry too. If you didn't sleep at all last night, why not go take a rest?" Lin Che looked at his eyebags, which had turned blue. Although it made him look like a decadent beauty, it was still unhealthy.

Gu Jingze said, "There are still some matters unsettled..."

"Still? Didn't you say it was more or less done?"

"More or less, not completely. You're so silly. It's fine. I'll just finish up my work in the meeting room next door. There is not much left. There are just some forms that I need to look at."

Lin Che turned back and saw that Granny was still in a deep sleep. She probably wasn't going to wake up soon. Thus, she looked up at him and asked, "Then is there anything I can help you with?"

"Sitting beside me and looking at me will help," Gu Jingze didn't think that she would be able to do anything with her intelligence.

"No, let me do something. I can... do some miscellaneous office stuff. It's no big deal. I can help get you water or tea and stuff. Don't look down on me! I'm a university graduate!"

Lin Che wanted to help in one way or another so that she wouldn't appear useless. Gu Jingze looked helplessly at Lin Che and nodded, deciding to grant her wish.

Lin Che jumped up and down and went next door with him.

Everything was already prepared for Gu Jingze in the meeting room. His laptop and documents were all there.

Lin Che walked over to take a look. Those forms were filled with numbers and she... couldn't understand them.

Gu Jingze asked, "Why? Do you know how to manage forms?"

Lin Che looked and laughed dryly. She came up with an excuse, "My... My mathematics is bad. How about some language stuff?"

Gu Jingze said, "Then... can you help me sort out the language for this case?"

Lin Che smiled and picked up the case.

Damn it. There were so many strange lines.

She almost wanted to faint, "This... my composition is actually not that good. I can only memorize poems. Is there anything else..."

Gu Jingze watched as she foolishly tried to come up with excuses to save her face. He burst out laughing.

His first smile of the day radiated on his tired face.

Lin Che looked up and saw his curled lips. That shallow curvature stunned Lin Che.

He didn't smile often but he looked very good when he did.
