Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze who was frowning. She said, “You can go ahead and do your work. I can go home myself.”

“It’s okay. Let’s go to the hospital.” He tugged her as he spoke.

Lin Che thought that if the Mo family was there, wouldn’t they be even angrier if they saw Lin Che?

However, Gu Jingze was already holding her hand stubbornly.

—

At the hospital.

Mo Huiling cried, “It’s a blessing that my child is fine. I didn’t think about all this at that time. I didn’t think about my own life or my belly. I only thought about saving Gu Jingze.”

Mother Mo cried and said, “My poor child, why are you so silly? He likes a young and pretty actress, not you. Nevermind that your years of youth are gone. Now, a respectable lady like you has to bear a child for him. You are too silly. You almost lost your life today. Has the Gu family said anything? They didn’t even come to see you.”

Mu Wanqing watched from the side. Seeing the two ladies cry nonstop, she also didn’t know what to say.

“I already said that I will make it up to her. Furthermore, Jingze already said that her child is not ours. You…”

“Fine. Don’t think that we’re afraid of your family. Yes, your Gu family is considered the most powerful in C Nation. However, if anything happens to our Huiling, we will do our best and not let you guys off. I’ll let everyone know of your Gu family’s viciousness. I’ll make your family lose your livelihood! Let your son be president? Hmph. With such viciousness, I’ll see if the citizens still want your family as their president or not.”

“Hey, how can you be so unreasonable?”

“What’s going on?” Just then, Gu Jingze finally arrived.

When Mo Huiling saw Gu Jingze, she immediately smiled. However, she saw that Lin Che was behind him. Her face immediately fell once again.

The Mo family looked at Gu Jingze and immediately said, “Our Huiling is now injured because of you. We don’t even know if half of her body can still function again. She is even carrying your child who was fortunately saved in time. The child was almost gone and you’re still not thinking of taking responsibility now?”

Gu Jingze looked at the pitiful-looking Mo Huiling.

“I’ll definitely compensate her, but the child is not mine.”

“You… You still want to shirk responsibility?!” Mother Mo said, “We’ll know if the child is yours when he is born. If you don’t admit to it, people are going to laugh at you.”

Gu Jingze said, “My mother had suggested giving her a shopping mall as compensation. She took a shot for me and I admit to that now. That is why I’ll give her another shopping mall. How about Haining Shopping Mall in C City?”

Upon hearing about two shopping malls, Father Mo’s heart moved.

Gu Jingze was really something. The Gu family was way too generous. How much was that going to cost?

But…

“I don’t want any shopping malls,” Mo Huiling said. “Jingze. I am hurt because of you. I… I want to move in with you and recuperate in your house.”

What?

Everyone looked at Mo Huiling in shock.

Mo Huiling looked at Gu Jingze stubbornly. “If you don’t agree with it… I’ll kill myself right at your doorstep. Anyway, I’ve already embarrassed myself beyond salvation. I don’t want to live anymore…”

Gu Jingze scoffed, “You can do whatever you like. But even if you die, it has nothing to do with me. You cannot live with us.”

“You… Gu Jingze, you really want to say such words? I won’t care so much anymore. If I die, I must make a scapegoat out of you. If my child and I die, I want Lin Che to die with me. Hmph. Even if I can’t drag her down, I will make sure she can’t live a normal life! You may not care about yourself, but don’t tell me you don’t care about Lin Che?”

Gu Jingze stood there and was just about to speak when Mu Wanqing quickly stopped him.

“Jingze, outside. Listen to me.”

Mu Wanqing led Gu Jingze and Lin Che out. She said to Gu Jingze, “She wants to move in only because she wants to interact more with you. And she wants to interact with you only because she still can’t let you go in her heart. Don’t fight fire with fire this time. Otherwise, you will really hurt Lin Che. You and Lin Che are getting along just fine. Even if she moves in, it won’t be a big deal. Perhaps if she sees that she doesn’t have a chance, she’ll give up too.”

Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes and remained silent.

Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Che. “Little Che, you don’t have to tolerate her. If she dares to do anything in front of you, we will always stand on your side. You are Jingze’s lawfully wedded wife. Are you still afraid of her?”

Lin Che said, “I’m not afraid.” She lifted her head up. “What Mom said is right. It’s okay. We’ll just settle on a fixed period and let her leave when she’s recovered. I can still endure this little bit of time. Furthermore, I’m indeed not afraid of her.”

Gu Jingze looked down and gazed deeply at Lin Che.

His brows were filled with worry for a fleeting moment and then coldness blanketed them once again.

—

In the ward.

Mu Wanqing walked in and said, “I spoke to Jingze. You can move in.”

Mo Huiling heard this and her eyes immediately lit up. She tried to suppress the excitement in her heart. “Really?”

“Yes, but it’s only until your arm recovers.”

Mo Huiling nodded profusely, “Of course. I’m the young mistress of the Mo family. I won’t burden your Gu family.”

Mu Wanqing looked at Mo Huiling and thought to herself, Isn’t this still burdening us?

If it isn’t because I don’t want Lin Che to be implicated by you, who cares about you?

If this blew up, it wouldn’t help Lin Che’s career. Furthermore, she believed that Jingze and Little Che wouldn’t bother with her.

Mo Huiling was elated. As she sat there, she thought that taking the bullet for Jingze this time was all worth it.

She said it before. Sooner or later, she would move into the Gu household one day.

Now, she did what she said she would. Furthermore, when she moved in this time, she would definitely chase Lin Che out of the house and gain back everything that should have belonged to her…

Father Mo initially felt sad about the two shopping malls. But thinking about Mo Huiling moving in… If she and Gu Jingze patched up, then everything that belonged to the Gu family would also belong to the Mo family. Thus, he felt comforted by these thoughts.

—

On that night itself, Mo Huiling already had her attendants pack up everything to move into the Gu residence.

She stood at the entrance of the Gu residence and looked at those strict guards. She was excited beyond words. Although it wasn’t what she thought in the past, she still did it. One day, she would move into this garden-like secret castle.

This place wasn’t the best and it wasn’t like the Mo family couldn’t afford to buy it. However, this was Gu Jingze’s place. Looking at those security guards wearing the Gu family’s emblem already made the status of this place out of this world.

She thought, Moving in here is only the first step. I will become the house mistress in the future!

The maids saw Mo Huiling enter and were naturally unhappy too.

However, Mo Huiling never held these maids in regard. The moment she entered, she immediately instructed them, “Pick a good room for me.”

“Miss Mo, you can pick whichever room you like,” the maids replied.

“Huh. Okay then. What if I pick Lin Che’s room?”

“Madam’s room is Sir’s room. Of course, you can’t choose that.”

“…” Mo Huiling heard this and was so angry that her face turned purple.
