Chapter 396: How Dare She Kick Him?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Che was still lazing around Shen Youran apartment.

She heard her phone ring and held up her phone only to see that it was actually Gu Jingze.

She nearly answered the call immediately but remembered that it was strange of him to call when they were in the midst of an argument.

Because of the argument, she was reluctant to go to the company or to the film set. She just wanted to stay at home all day and lay around not doing anything.

Thus, she simply rejected his call.

She snorted and wriggled her nose at her phone. She refused to bother with him.

Men who lied were all bad men!

Just then, she heard someone knock on the door.

Lin Che froze.

She got up and wondered if Shen Youran was back. But she should have had her keys with her.

She walked to the door and opened it only to see a group of people in black clothing.

And the person at the very front was Gu Jingze.

Back home, the ceiling was higher and he did not appear tall. However, the ceiling in this apartment was slightly lower. As he stood by the door, it made him look surprisingly tall.

It seemed as if his head would hit the ceiling the moment he entered.

Lin Che gulped. She looked at Gu Jingze and wanted to close the door immediately.

However, Gu Jingze stopped her from closing the door.

He placed his hand directly on the door. It closed on his hand but he still did not budge.

Lin Che’s heart suddenly clenched and she hastily loosened her hold on the door.

However, she still continued looking at Gu Jingze and asked fiercely, “What are you doing?!”

Gu Jingze looked at her with an emotionless face. Then, his lips moved, “Lin Che.”

Lin Che turned away from him. “Let go of the door. I’m going to close it.”

“That’s enough, Lin Che. Come home with me,” he said.

Lin Che said, “I don’t want to.”

Gu Jingze had a gloomy expression on his face. “It’s not safe here. Come home with me.”

“How is it unsafe?! I’m not safe with you.”

“...” Gu Jingze replied, “Stop throwing a tantrum and come home with me.”

“There’s a total pervert and an evil woman at your place. Of course, I’m not going back, hmph.”

Gu Jingze said, “This door can’t even protect you against burglars. It’s too dangerous here. Come back with me, alright?”

“There’s no need for protection against theft here. There’s no way that so many evil people would target us, ordinary people,” Lin Che said.

“Lin Che, can’t you be a little more sensible?!” Gu Jingze’s eyes darkened instantly when he heard her use the term ordinary people.

Lin Che said, “Fine. I’m insensible. You’re sensible. But at least I didn’t lie, hmph.”

“You...” Gu Jingze said.

“Move aside. I’m going to close the door. Don’t hang around here anymore, alright?”

Lin Che tried to close the door again, but his hand stayed there firmly and prevented her from closing it.

Yet she really did not want to slam the door shut again and hurt his hand.

“Quick, come out! You have two choices right now. You either come out on your own or I’ll go in and drag you out!” Gu Jingze’s tone was overbearing.

Lin Che froze. Putting aside the numerous people following behind him, Lin Che would definitely not be able to get past Gu Jingze alone. For a man as strong as him, this small door was indeed not a problem at all.

“I’m not going out. You... don’t you dare think about coming in. If you barge in, I’m going to scream!”

“What is there to scream about?!”

“I’ll scream for everyone to witness a trespass.”

Gu Jingze sneered. “I actually want to see if anyone can stop me.”

As he spoke, Gu Jingze pushed the door forcefully. Lin Che was powerless against his strength. Seeing that he was about to barge in, Lin Che frantically shouted, “Ah, help, help, someone is trying to break in!!”

Beside them, an old aunt opened her door immediately.

“What’s all this shouting about?” She shouted and opened the door. When she saw so many people outside, she froze immediately. Looking at them suspiciously, she wondered what was happening here.

“Ah, ah, ah... are you loan sharks here to collect a debt?” That was was the only thing the old aunt could think of. Otherwise, why would there be so many people, each one so well-built, standing there coldly and looking on?

Gu Jingze drew in a deep breath and looked at the old aunt. “Auntie, I came here to look for someone. I’m not a loan shark.”

Hearing this, Lin Che hastily cried out, “Auntie, auntie, he’s a loan shark. Quick, help me call the police. My useless husband borrowed money from them, but that shameless man ended up running away himself. Now, they’ve come knocking on my door. I’m the only one left to care for the elders and the children in my family. I can’t die.”

“...” Gu Jingze stood there and looked at this damned woman.

How dare she call him a shameless husband?

In her shock, the aunt’s eyes darted around the people in front of her. “You guys... you guys, it’s illegal to loan money at a high-interest rate. Why are you bullying a woman?”

Lin Che nodded her head frantically. “Precisely, precisely. They won’t even let me close the door. Auntie, help me call the police, quick.”

The aunt did not dare to interfere too much. She could only look at them and say, “You guys... if you continue doing this, I’m really going to call the police.”

Gu Jingze sighed. He merely glared at Lin Che before telling the aunt, “Auntie, you’re mistaken. She’s my wife, but we’ve had a bit of a conflict, so she came here. I came here to pick her up because she refused to meet me.”

“...” The aunt immediately became even more confused.

Gu Jingze looked at her. “Auntie, all of us are good people. Do we look like loan sharks?”

The aunt looked at Gu Jingze’s tall and slender build. He also had a particularly handsome face. Furthermore, although the people behind him looked cold, they did not seem like loan sharks. Seeing that Gu Jingze was so pleasing to the eye, she smiled and looked at Lin Che who was equally beautiful. “My goodness, you’re right. You don’t look like a loan shark to me. How can you be a loan shark when you’re so handsome? You must be a good man since you’re so handsome. There’s no need for you to resort to evil methods.”

“...” Lin Che could not believe that the aunt was so swayed by his appearance.

Just because a person was handsome did not mean that he would not be evil.

“Auntie, how could you think this way?!” Lin Che shouted.

The aunt said, “Dear me, little lady. Fights between a married couple shouldn’t last long. On account of his handsome face, don’t be angry anymore.”

Lin Che pursed her lips. When the aunt spoke, Lin Che saw Gu Jingze’s expression clear up slightly before he looked calmly at her.

Lin Che pursed her lips and said, “I refuse to go back with him. If I go back, he’ll definitely bully me.”

Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che. “That’s enough. Come with me. Quickly.”

“I don’t want to. If you don’t release your hold, I’m really going to slam the door hard.”

“I won’t let go!” Gu Jingze was about to just burst through the door.

Lin Che instantly became even more anxious.

“Gu Jingze, you...” While speaking, she stuck her leg out through the gap in the door and kicked his leg.

Gu Jingze froze. When he felt her kick his thigh so forcefully, he stepped backward in pain.

How dare this woman kick him?

As he stepped back, his hand naturally left the door.

The door slammed abruptly in his face.

Gu Jingze froze completely.
