The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage novel Chapter 67

"There's no need to apologize. It's not your responsibility," Lin Che dismissed him with a wave of her hand.

"No, you are my wife," he emphasized.

Lin Che's heart fluttered. He looked at her with dead seriousness, filling her heart with emotions.

He said she was his wife...

She quickly turned away, not wanting see his enchanting face.

Soon, they arrived home.

They walked in one after another. Gu Jingze instructed the maid, "Give Madam some medication."

Lin Che turned back. Gu Jingze said, "You still have a cold. Take some medicine before going to bed."

In the bedroom, Lin Che sat down on the bed. The maid brought the medicine in. Gu Jingze took the medicine and signalled for the maid to leave. He said to Lin Che, "Open your mouth."

Lin Che replied, "I'm fine, really. I don't need to take any medicine."

Gu Jingze frowned, "Open your mouth. Be a good girl." His voice was low and pleasant like a cello. Lin Che's heart palpitated and she thought how rare a perfect man like him was.

He was so hypnotizing, sexy, wealthy, and even responsible.

He was so nice to her.

It was only because he felt responsible to be nice to his contract wife that he helped her so much. But still, she felt touched.

It suddenly occurred to her that if they divorced one day, she would never be able to find such a perfect man again.

Lin Che's heart felt a slight tang.

Gu Jingze asked," What are you daydreaming about? Don't act dumb. Open your mouth and take your medicine."

Lin Che blushed and turned away, "No."

"Really?"

"Really, I'm fine. Anyway, medicine is not good for the body. I didn't even take medicine when I had a high fever of forty degrees Celsius when I was a kid. And I got well on my own."

"Forty degrees..." Gu Jingze stared at Lin Che. She had some kind of luck to still be alive until today. "I finally understand why you're so intellectually challenged. It must be that childhood fever."

"Bastard!" Lin Che raised her head in objection and said, "It's precisely why my body is so strong! I lost so much blood but still survived.

"Your method is not scientifically proven. Who skips medicine when they have a high fever?" Gu Jingze insisted.

Lin Che said, "Not everyone is born with a golden spoon in their mouth like you. We don't all have a personal doctor at our call. I lived with a nanny when I was little. She was always busy and no one really bothered about me. But it didn't matter because I rarely got sick. My body is strong. I only remember getting a forty degree fever that one time. I woke up in the middle of the night but my nanny wasn't around. I ran out to look for medicine but I hadn't learned many words back then. So I mistook a bunch of yellow tablets as cold medicine and swallowed them all. I almost scared my nanny to death and she rushed me to a nearby clinic. It turned out that nothing happened to me and my fever had already subsided. The doctor said that kids who usually take medicine would have been in grave danger. I was lucky to have such a strong immune system."

Upon hearing how nonchalant she was, his face sank and his thin lips formed a straight line. He had unknowingly moved closer to Lin Che. She raised her head and met his dark pupils. She leaned back but Gu Jingze said threateningly, "Take your medicine. Don't force me to take extreme measures."

Lin Che watched him inch closer to her, his lips and throat moving. She felt her body get warmer so she turned around, ready to escape, "I'm really okay. I don't need medicine.

At that moment, Gu Jingze put the pills in his own mouth. His long arm reached over to her and his hand held Lin Che's chin. He pressed his lips against hers.

A cool tongue, accompanied with the bitter taste of medicine, invaded Lin Che's mouth.

Lin Che screamed and then she felt his lips completely block her breath.

The pills slid down her throat as she stopped breathing momentarily.

What was worse was that even after the medicine had gone down, his tongue was still exploring her mouth, not wanting to leave.
