Lin Che was pulled back.

Granny smiled as she looked at them. Then, she quickly opened the door and walked out.

“Hey… Granny…” Lin Che speechlessly watched Granny leave. Her wrist was held by Gu Jingze, so she could only retreat and look at Gu Jingze silently.

Gu Jingze smiled devilishly and immediately pulled her into his embrace.

That petite body was wrapped in his arms. He looked down at her, leaving no room for her to escape.

“What… What are you doing?” Lin Che looked outside fearfully. Granny was still around. What if Granny saw her get hugged by him like that… That would be embarrassing.

Gu Jingze looked down and frowned, “What are you running for? Am I so scary that you want to run away quickly?”

“I-I-I… I don’t mean that,” Lin Che quickly replied. “I’m not running away. I just want to help Granny.”

“You’re not running? Ever since I came here, you’ve been trying to avoid me. Tell me what exactly happened? Why are you suddenly avoiding me?” Gu Jingze felt that something was different. He looked down at her and asked.

Under the intense stare of his sharp eyes, she felt that there was no way to escape him at all. Lin Che hesitantly crossed her legs. She had absolutely no idea what to say.

“I’m not running away. I was simply bored at home and I called Granny. I missed her, so I wanted to see her here.”

Lin Che avoided Gu Jingze’s eyes as she spoke.

When he stared at her, she could not tell any lies.

But how could she say that it was because she saw the news about him with another woman? How could she say that it made her emotional and even jealous?

Actually, he hadn’t even gone to that stage with that woman.

She just had her own little mood and she couldn’t tell him about these feelings.

Gu Jingze continued staring at her slightly nervous face.

He narrowed his eyes and his fingertips suddenly held her chin and pinched it tightly.

“You’re still not telling the truth!”

Gu Jingze exclaimed and immediately kissed her as a punishment.

Lin Che was stunned. Granny was still outside and could come back at any minute. Lin Che panicked and started hitting his chest with her fists.

Her tongue avoided his attack and kept escaping.

Gu Jingze saw that she still dared to escape. He became angrier and bit her lip.

Lin Che then said, “We can’t… Gu Jingze… Granny…”

Gu Jingze’s voice became hoarse.

He only felt something moving around that made it difficult to suppress the heat flowing up his body.

Lin Che was previously injured, so he didn’t touch her for many days. After that, he was out of town and he didn’t touch her for a long time. His body was more than ready.

As he hugged her now, he felt her body respond to him too. How could he resist?

He bent his head and stared faintly at her. He said, “Tell me, do you still dare to run away?”

“No… I don’t dare.” He who understands the times is a wise man. How could she be silly enough to go against him right now?

He stared hard at this petite woman and didn’t quite believe her. It would be a miracle if this woman was ever going to be that obedient.

However, he looked outside and knew that now was not the time. It was just a moment of passion and it was not like he couldn’t endure it.

He lowered his head, bit her lip and kissed her again. After another round of teasing, he finally let her go. He tidied her clothes and touched her nose, “If you get dishonest with me again next time, just wait and see what will happen to you.”

Lin Che’s lips were red and she blushed as she looked at him.

If this was his punishment for anyone who made a mistake… There would have been countless women willing to commit any crime for him.

That kiss just now was really too intoxicating…

But Granny was still outside and the sound insulation here was probably not good either. She was only worried that the sounds she made would be uncontrollable and accidentally heard. She would be so embarrassed then.

Thankfully, Granny didn’t seem to have reacted. She let out a sigh of relief and looked speechlessly at Gu Jingze.

After a while, Granny called from outside, “Little Che, Jingze, come out and eat.”

Granny was also not really a pedantic person. She may have been old, but she was experienced.

Whatever the two were doing inside, she naturally wouldn’t have barged in like that. So once she finished cooking, she called from outside.

Lin Che quickly looked down and straightened her clothes.

Gu Jingze also stood up from where he was sitting.

Lin Che patted her face to energize herself. Following Granny’s voice, she opened the door and walked out.

“Granny, that was fast,” she smiled and said.

Gu Jingze followed behind. As the house was short, he was extra careful to avoid bumping his head.

Granny smiled at them, “I don’t have that much. I only made two dishes. Help yourselves.”

Lin Che naturally didn’t care as long as she had something to eat. She was not picky about the food at all.

However, she looked up at Gu Jingze worriedly.

Even on a regular day at home, there were at least a few dishes and they were all very exquisite.

She was afraid that it wouldn’t suit his palate.

Especially when it came to these dishes fit for peasants. They indeed didn’t look very appetizing.

But Gu Jingze only smiled. He sat down and said, “It’s good enough. Let’s eat together, Granny.”

“Okay okay, I’ll eat too,” Granny scooped rice for them. She smiled and said, “They are all washed just now but not disinfected. I figured that you disinfect the food back home.”
