The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage novel Chapter 362

When Lin Che came out of the washroom, she heard everyone still discussing.

"Gu Jingze actually came."

"Yes. The Gu family just joined the Lu family in marriage. Gu Jingze has to at least give some face to his own sister and interact more with the Lu family."

"That Lu family's daughter had her eyes set on him long ago. Didn't you see how she clung onto him from just now?"

"Ha, that Lu family's daughter used to be so reserved and proud. She had so many suitors but she didn't even look at them."

"She didn't fancy any of them because she had been waiting for this one. She is being too ambitious to set her sight on Gu Jingze."

"Who doesn't want to be Mrs. Gu?"

Lin Che couldn't help but clench her fists.

Who didn't want to be Mrs. Gu? Yes, it seemed like Lu Chuxia already had an open secret, but she didn't seem to care at all.

What about Gu Jingze? Did he care? Lin Che walked out, so preoccupied in her thoughts that she accidentally bumped into someone.

"Oh my, I'm sorry. Are you okay? Let me see," Lin Che looked at the old man who appeared to have fallen on the ground. He sat there with pale lips, seemingly in a bad condition.

Lin Che got scared. She quickly asked with a concerned voice, "Ah, sir. Are you ill?"

The old man looked up at Lin Che. The moment he saw her, he went silent.

"You... You are..." He suddenly grabbed Lin Che's wrist and spoke.

Lin Che was even more taken aback. She quickly said, "Sir, don't be afraid. I'm not going anywhere. I know it was me who knocked into you. Quick, check if there are any problems on your body."

He only looked intensely at Lin Che. He narrowed his eyes as if scrutinizing her every facial expression.

Lin Che couldn't help but feel strange. She looked at the old man, "Sir, are you alright? Are you really hurt somewhere? Tell me, I'll help you check."

But the old man held onto Lin Che's arm and looked at her, "No, no. I'm not hurt."

Lin Che felt that there was something off about this old man. She looked at him worriedly and asked,

"What exactly happened? I think you got hurt, sir."

He looked at her weirdly for a long time and then seemed to slowly return to normal. He sighed and said to her, "No, no. Little lass, I'm not hurt. I just thought that you look like someone I know. What's your name?"

Lin Che said, "I'm Lin Che."

"Oh, Lin Che... That's a nice name. I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me," the old man said.

Lin Che still felt that something was up with him, "Sir, let me help you up. Don't move."

She helped him up, looked at him and said, "Sir, if there is something wrong, you must tell me. I'll take you for treatment. I bumped into you, so I should be responsible."

The old man smiled and waved his hand dismissively, "I'm really fine. You didn't bump into me. I was careless too."

"How can that be? It was still my fault. I didn't see where I was going. I don't know what went on in my head, so I wasn't seeing clearly. Sorry, sir," Lin Che said apologetically.

He looked at Lin Che, "Most people who bump into someone else would push the blame onto the other party. You are so kind to insist that it's your responsibility."

"Because it is my responsibility, to begin with. Sir, where is your family? Shall I help you to look for them?"

"My family is outside. It's fine, I can go alone," he looked at Lin Che. "Which family's daughter are you?
