nLin Che waited a very long time at home. She called Gu Jingze but he did not pick up either. She asked the maids beside her and the security guards outside but all of them said that they did not know where Gu Jingze was.

nShe angrily held up her phone and sent a few messages to Gu Jingze first. She did not care whether or not Gu Jingze would see them.

n“Gu Jingze, I don’t know why you got angry. Since you already know that I was only at the hospital because Qin Qing had gotten injured, then do you also already know that he protected me from the object that fell from above? That’s the only reason why the person in the hospital now isn’t me. So what’s wrong with me looking after him for a bit in the hospital? Why must you get angry? Surely, I shouldn’t repay his kindness with ingratitude and ignore him? Would doing that be right?”

nAfter she sent the message, there was still no response. Alone on the bed, Lin Che lay on her stomach. She waited for a long time and felt even more strongly that she was literally waiting for someone who would not repent. She felt that rotten.

nForget it. Since he wanted to be angry, then he could just be angry.

nLin Che did not want to bother with him anymore. She fell into a fitful sleep. The next day, she went directly to the filming venue. She did not even want to go home when night came. She wanted to just stay overnight at the filming site.

nDuring the breaks in filming, Lin Che thought of Qin Qing. It was not convenient for her to go over and look after him again. Then, he would overthink. However, it would be better if she called him first and asked about his condition.

nAfter the call went through, Qin Qing’s voice sounded very gloomy over the phone.

n“Hello?”

n“Qin Qing, it’s me. I’m filming and I’m a little busy so I can’t go and visit you.”

nQin Qing smiled. “I’ve already transferred to another hospital. Thank you.”

n“Oh, is that so? That’s good. I was still worried that the facilities in that hospital were not good enough and would interfere with your condition.”

n“Thanks for your thoughts. Actually, it doesn’t matter. All of my injuries are just external injuries.”

n“Of course it matters. You only got injured because of me.”

nShe did not know currently that Qin Qing still thought that she had asked Gu Jingze to change his ward.

nBoth of them were each saying what they wanted to but neither spoke very clearly.

nQin Qing smiled as he said, “Don’t overthink it. Putting aside the fact that we’ve known each other for so many years, you’re as close to me as a biological sister would be. Even if it was a stranger, how could I just watch a person get hurt? It doesn’t matter.”

nActually, Qin Qing was a very good person too.

nWith her phone in her hand, Lin Che paused and remained silent for a long time. Then, she said into the phone, “Thank you, Qin Qing.”

n“Silly.” Qin Qing said, “In the future, you’re still my sister.”

n“Hn. You’re still my good friend.”

nLin Che put down the phone but she began to feel even more sad.

nTime was really a strange thing. It washed away so many feelings and took away so many regrets…

nA day had passed but she still had not received any news from Gu Jingze.

nEven Yu Minmin noticed that Lin Che’s mind was occupied with other things.

nAs she looked at Lin Che playing with her phone over there, Yu Minmin walked over and said, “Hey, what’s wrong with you? You’re so out of it today.”

n“No way… I filmed all my scenes in one take today!”

nYu Minmin said, “I’m not talking about filming. Look at yourself. After filming, you nestled yourself here immediately and your expression has simply not been good. Didn’t you realize? Today, no one in the production team has dared to come and bother you at all.”

nLin Che blinked as she raised her head. “Really? My expression is that terrible?”

nYu Minmin said, “That’s a given.”

nLin Che got up and looked at Yu Minmin, “Exactly how terrible is it… is my expression just very rotten?”

n“What do you think?!”

n“Oh my god.” Lin Che said, “How come I didn’t sense it at all? But why is everyone afraid of bothering me?”

n“Because they’re afraid that you’ll throw a tantrum.”

n“No way… I’m so kind and cute.”

n“That’s how you are usually. But today, you look like an old witch,” Yu Minmin said bluntly.

nLin Che sighed as she looked at Yu Minmin. “Sister Yu, in your opinion… if a man always gets angry for no reason, what does it mean?”

nYu Minmin said, “Oh. No wonder you’re so distracted today. Gu Jingze got angry at you? What happened? How did he get angry?”

n“… ” Lin Che lowered her head. Only after a long time did she say, “Uhm, it went like this… ”

nLin Che briefly summarized what had happened. She did not mention that Qin Qing had unexpectedly and inconceivably confessed to her. In any case, that did not count as a proper confession either. It was possible that it was merely just thinking of possibilities.

nYu Minmin looked at Lin Che with surprise, “You’re really great. You’ve already gotten together with Gu Jingze but you still have a male childhood friend who got injured on your behalf. Are you trying to make every woman envy you to death?”

n“Sister Yu, just tell me what do now. If he’s injured, he’s just injured. I can’t leave him be either. But that Gu Jingze is really too petty. He actually ignored me just because I stood him up.”

nYu Minmin looked at Lin Che, “You’re sure that he’s not just jealous?”

n“What?” Lin Che looked at Yu Minmin in front of her with an astounded expression.

nYu Minmin slapped the table, “That’s enough. You can’t even tell? Gu Jingze’s not angry because you stood him up. He’s angry because you stood him up for the sake of your childhood sweetheart. Are you kidding me? That’s precisely what being jealous is.”

n“… ” Really?

nLin Che fidgeted as she looked at Yu Minmin. “That’s not possible.”

nShe really did not want to flatter herself.

n“Alright. Men need cajoling, especially jealous men. Lower your stance a little and cajole him properly. Everything will be fine then. Go back quickly and stop wasting time here.”

n“… ”

nAll of a sudden, someone came to look for Lin Che outside.

n“Sister Che, someone is waiting for you outside the venue,” the assistant director ran over as he spoke. From his tone and gaze, it seemed that the person who had come was a little unordinary.

nLin Che looked at Yu Minmin. Upon seeing Yu Minmin nod at her encouragingly, she ran out in a rush.

nHowever, when she arrived outside, she saw that the person standing outside was Chen Yucheng.

n“Doctor Chen, why are you here?”

nChen Yucheng looked at Lin Che, “You haven’t gone home for more than a day?”

nLin Che pursed her lips, “Yes. It’s because I’m afraid of irritating someone if I go back.”

nChen Yucheng said, “Hey. I really don’t know what exactly Gu Jingze owes you.”

n“What?”

nChen Yucheng said, “He must have had a fair amount of enmity with you in his past life. So you came to torment him after reincarnation in this life.”

nDumbfounded, Lin Che said, “Exactly who is tormenting who?”

nChen Yucheng said, “Are you still going back to see Gu Jingze one last time?”

n“What?” Upon hearing this, Lin Che got shocked.

nChen Yucheng said, “Gu Jingze is about to die.”

n“You… what are you saying… ”

n“He’s about to be angered to death by you.”

n“… ”

nLin Che glared at this Chen Yucheng who spoke in bits and pieces. “Get lost!”

nUpon seeing that Lin Che had lost interest, Chen Yucheng quickly said, “Alright. I won’t joke with you anymore. But Gu Jingze is really ill.”

nLin Che’s expression froze as she looked at Chen Yucheng.

nIll?

nWhy?
