He froze the moment he saw Lin Che.

Lin Che immediately saw him and paused. “Ah, I’ve seen you before… you’re definitely an actor in the crew!”

He was probably one of the extras and often appeared on different sets. Although Lin Che could not remember his name, it was only when she saw him that it immediately occurred to her. So it was this man.

Upon seeing Lin Che, he turned around and ran. He even threw the two bottles of water he was holding onto the ground.

Lin Che quickly ran after him.

“Get back here. I won’t hurt you. You just have to tell me where Yunshi is. As long as she’s still safe, I absolutely won’t do anything to you!”

However, the man still ran straight inside. He ran with all his might and did not look back.

Before Lin Che could even react, her bodyguard ran out from beside her within a moment. He chased in the direction, which the fair and clean-cut man had run.

Lin Che shouted, “Be careful. Don’t hurt Yunshi.”

When she shouted like this, the people around her immediately noticed her.

Some people said in surprise, “This person’s voice and appearance really resembles Lin Che.”

“No way. Why would a huge celebrity come to an internet cafe?”

“How would I know? Anyway, it seems to be her.”

Lin Che threw caution to the wind and ran out with all her might.

Just then, she saw the man actually pulling Lu Yunshi along and running out from inside. Grabbing Lu Yunshi, he ran towards the back.

Thereafter, her bodyguard ran out as well.

Lin Che shouted, “Yunshi!”

Lu Yunshi seemed to hear a sound. But before she could react, she had already been pulled away and had vanished without a trace.

Lin Che frantically ran after them while shouting.

The man was pulling Lu Yunshi along.

She looked up and asked, “Where should I run to?”

The man said, “There’s a French window over there. You can open the whole window and jump out!”

“Ah. This is the second floor. Can I jump?”

“Why not? You won’t die. Don’t worry.”

“But…”

“Why? Forget it if you don’t have the guts. If you don’t dare to do it, go back with them.”

“I… I’m definitely not going back…”

Lin Che shouted, “Yunshi, what are you doing?!”

She had just run over only to see the man standing by the French window. He pulled Lu Yunshi and was about to jump down.

Shocked, Lin Che immediately shouted, “Yunshi, don’t do it. Don’t jump! It’s too dangerous!”

Lu Yunshi turned back and hesitated for a moment.

But just then, the man said again, “Decide yourself whether you want to jump or go back!”

Lu Yunshi hesitated for some time.

But then, she, nevertheless, stood up and positioned herself as if she was about to jump down.

This time, Lin Che was terrified.

Although this was the second floor, it was still quite a few meters away from the ground.

She would not die if she jumped, but she would still be injured.

Lin Che shouted, “No!”

She ran towards them immediately.

The man jumped down. Lu Yunshi did not dare to, but she was nevertheless dragged down by him.

Lin Che did not know where she got the strength to swiftly run to them and pull Lu Yunshi.

She grabbed onto Lu Yunshi and pulled her inside.

But she herself shifted to the side and fell outwards directly.

“Ah… Baby Che…” Lu Yunshi shouted.

Lu Yunshi was so shocked that her face turned completely white. Her hand flew to her mouth.

On the other hand, Lin Che fell onto the ground with a thud…

When Gu Jingze arrived, he saw Lu Yunshi run out directly from inside.

Gu Jingze froze and his face turned dark instantly. He walked towards her in large strides. “Where is Lin Che?”

Lu Yunshi’s face was covered in tears. “Baby Che fell out of the window. She’s right behind the building. Quick, go!”

Gu Jingze pushed Lu Yunshi away and frantically ran to the back.

When he reached the back of the building, Lin Che happened to be lying on the ground. She was holding her arm while collapsed on the ground. She was in excruciating pain.

“Lin Che!” Gu Jingze reached her in one stride and lifted her off the ground in one swift motion.

“My arm… my arm… don’t touch my arm. It hurts…” She cried out while pointing to her twisted arm.

Gu Jingze looked at her warily and his face turned even darker. “What happened?!”

“It’s all my fault…” Just then, Lu Yunshi caught up with them and cried while saying, “I’m sorry, Baby Che. It’s all my fault. How are you? Wuwuwuwu. Did you hurt yourself in the fall…”

Lin Che’s expression softened when she looked at Lu Yunshi. She hastily said, “Alright, I’m fine. Don’t cry. Yunshi, don’t jump down next time. Look. You really will hurt yourself if you jump, right?”

Hearing this, Lu Yunshi started wailing even more. “I won’t be rebellious again. Really…”

Gu Jingze frowned as he looked at Lin Che who had just been gritting her teeth in pain but was now smiling instead. He shook his head and quickly carried her up. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to the hospital.”

He turned back to tell the people around him, “Go to the Glazed Tile Palace and inform Eric that his daughter Annie has been involved in a situation here. Just tell him to go straight to the hospital once he’s done.”

Lin Che could not help but ask, “It should be fine to tell him now, right?”

“Hn. It’s fine. Let’s go.”

At the hospital.

After the doctor had examined her, he told Gu Jingze,

“Madam’s forearm is fractured. It’s a slight fracture. Can you see that this area of her bone has been split?”

So it turned out to be a bone fracture. No wonder it was so painful…

Fortunately, it was just a slight fracture. She definitely did not want to see what her bone would look like when it was really broken.

Gu Jingze held up the X-ray and examined it. The fracture was not that small either.

“Does she need a cast?”

“It would be best to use a cast,” the doctor said.

Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che.

Lin Che said, “I didn’t jump down deliberately either. Anyway, it definitely wasn’t that high…”

How did she get a fracture if it wasn’t that high?

Gu Jingze frowned. He wanted to scold her, but at the same time, he could not bear to.

Forget it. She was already in enough pain. He should not scold her.

It was only because his heart ached for her that he felt stifled inside. It seemed that when she got hurt even a little, his heart felt as if it had been dug out of his chest.

“Don’t do this next time!”

“I…”

“Forget it. Anyway, you’re just like this. So ridiculously muddle-headed.” Gu Jingze knew as well that she had only been so foolish to fall out of the window because of Lu Yunshi.

Although this woman appeared careless, she had a very sensitive heart.

Lin Che said, “Alright, don’t blame Yunshi. She was probably so rebellious because she just hit puberty. It’s probably because everyone else is very envious of her and feels that she’s very fortunate to be Eric’s daughter, but she wants something else like momentary freedom or something novel. That’s a child’s natural inclination. I think that she has already been shocked by what happened just now. She’s a kind-hearted little lady. She must be blaming herself immensely after seeing that I got hurt.”

Gu Jingze pushed her head slightly. “You.”

Lin Che fisted the fabric of his clothes. “I mean it…”

“Forget it. I’m not that scary either. Do you think that I wouldn’t have considered what you had in mind?”

He turned around and looked pointedly at the person beside him to open the door.

When Lu Yunshi saw the door open, she frantically ran in.

Her eyes were all swollen from crying. Her face was also flushed red. She looked at Lin Che and cried even more. “Baby Che, how are you? You scared me to death earlier. I saw you fall out of the window. Wuwuwu. It’s all my fault. I’m sorry. I was the one who wanted to leave with him, so I ran out. I won’t do it ever again…”
