The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage

“Already ended?”

“Yes. Aren’t you in a meeting?” Lin Che asked.

“It ended early. We can go home together.”

“Yes yes. I’ll go over immediately. I’m about to take the elevator.”

Gu Jingze replied, “Don’t move. I’m already going up the elevator towards you.”

Lin Che hung up smiling.

Yu Minmin said from the side, “You look like a spring breeze… Gu Jingze is really good to you.”

Lin Che quickly said, “No way… He’s just picking me up on the way. There’s actually nothing between us…”

Lin Che spoke and looked at Yu Minmin’s amused expression. She quickly went out.

The elevator stopped just at that moment. With one ring, the doors opened and inside was Gu Jingze in a gray suit. One hand was in his pocket and as he looked up, his gaze was light and blue. This sight would have lit up anyone’s eyes immediately.

Lin Che smiled and hastily said, “Hey, you didn’t bring anyone with you? Let’s go.”

“It would attract too much attention if I brought them up to find you. Let’s go.”

As Lin Che spoke, she followed him into the elevator.

Gu Jingze looked down at Lin Che who looked very pretty and fresh. She was doing a promotion so she put on simple makeup. The elevator doors closed. Outside, Yu Minmin decided not to follow them and wanted to give the two of them some space.

Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze and thought about Yu Minmin’s sudden remarks just now. When she glanced at Gu Jingze, she felt shy and sheepish as if she was stealing glances at him.

But at this exact moment…

The elevator suddenly trembled.

Gu Jingze instinctively grabbed hold of Lin Che.

Tilting his head up, he looked around the elevator with his sharp eyes.

Lin Che was shocked and froze for a while before she exclaimed, “What the heck? Is the elevator spoiled?”

Just as she spoke, the elevator suddenly shook violently.

Lin Che was shaking until she looked like she was trembling herself.

Meanwhile, Gu Jingze held Lin Che in his embrace. Lin Che exclaimed, “What is going on? Don’t tell me that the elevator is dropping down? This is more than 10 floors; we’ll be smashed like human pancakes!”

Gu Jingze did not say a word. He looked silently at his surroundings and stuck close to Lin Che. He said, “Don’t move. Relax, I’m here.”

Dust began to drop with the trembling. Lin Che could not open her eyes.

At that moment, the elevator suddenly began to drop.

“Ah…” Lin Che shouted. Her hands grabbed tightly onto Gu Jingze’s clothes.

In that instant, Gu Jingze was like her angel. It was as if she only needed to hold onto him and she would have nothing to fear.

The elevator was still shaking. Lin Che was really scared now. Tightly guarded in Gu Jingze’s arms, she still felt anxious.

It was only a brief moment, but Lin Che felt like a century had passed.

It was like in the movies. At the moment just before the end of the world, it was just her and Gu Jingze.

Luckily, the elevator stopped again in an instant.

Lin Che gripped so tightly that her fingers hurt and her heart was in her throat. She looked up at Gu Jingze and croaked, “The elevator is going to drop, right? Are we… going to die here?”

“Silly, I forbid you from saying that,” Gu Jingze’s hand held her arm tightly. His eyes stared into hers.

Lin Che said, “Gu Jingze, you’re still so bossy at a time like this!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t let you die. Really.”

“Idiot. If I die, you can reunite with Mo Huiling. We won’t have so much trouble and problems anymore either.”

Gu Jingze’s face tightened, “Don’t spout nonsense.”

“I’m speaking the truth!”

“I told you that I won’t let you die and I mean it!” Gu Jingze suddenly felt pain in his heart after hearing her say that if she died, he could be with Mo Huiling. There was suddenly an emptiness in his heart. It was so uncomfortable.

If she died, he would never be able to find her in this world.

Even if there was someone who looked exactly like Lin Che, she still wouldn’t be Lin Che.

Because there was only one Lin Che in this world.

Gu Jingze suddenly could not imagine his life without such a noisy, chatty and troublesome person.

Would he return to the peaceful life he had before?

That kind of life would be so boring.

He had actually spent many years of his life like that without Lin Che.

But that feeling was different.

What Gu Jingze could not stand was that at one moment, she was in his hands. In the next moment, he felt like she might disappear.

He could not stand seeing her get hurt. It was all the more needless to say that he couldn’t stand seeing her die like this in front of him.

“You won’t die. My men are below. If anything happens, they’ll immediately come up.”

Just as he said that, they heard some voices outside frantically yelling and preparing for rescue.

Lin Che’s hands gripped even tighter and Gu Jingze hugged her tighter. He was not willing to let her go. It was as if once he let her go, she might just disappear in front of his eyes.

Just then, they finally saw a glimmer of hope through the doors. Lin Che exclaimed in surprise, “The doors are opening!”

The doors moved and were finally pried apart using some machine.

“Sir.”

“Sir, come out quickly. The elevator is unstable and extremely dangerous.”

Lin Che looked back at Gu Jingze.

Gu Jingze pressed Lin Che and then pushed her out, “You go first.”

Lin Che’s heart moved, “I…”

“Quick.”

Lin Che gazed at his firm expression and decided not to waste any more time. Thus, she quickly climbed out.

Lin Che’s feet touched the solid ground and she let out a breath of relief. But at that moment…

From behind, Lin Che’s hand was still holding onto Gu Jingze. Just as he was trying to get out, the doors suddenly moved again…

Lin Che yelled but before she could react, Gu Jingze had already pushed her hand away.

In a flash, the doors shut tight.

Everybody froze in shock. Then, there was a loud sound from the elevator…

“Gu Jingze!”

Lin Che almost fainted right there and then.

Her heart hurt. She felt hatred towards herself for deciding to come out first.

Everybody followed and ran downstairs.

Lin Che also followed the crowd and ran downstairs.

“Madam, Madam, don’t go over…”

“Let go of me!” Lin Che somehow mustered the strength to push away the people blocking her and headed straight down.

Her brain was in a mess and there was only one name flashing nonstop in her mind.

Gu Jingze, Gu Jingze…

If you die, what’s the point of me living on?

Her immense pain turned into a great moving power. She rushed down ten floors at three times her normal speed.

In a pile of debris, that elevator was already smashed into a million pieces.

In that instant, Lin Che’s heart felt like it was dying…

All her strength suddenly vanished at that moment. She collapsed on the floor and her tears were about to flow…

Just then, she heard a soft voice wheezing behind.

“Lin Che…”
