Chapter 134: Hugging Will Do

Gu Jingze stopped Lin Che from going to him. He looked up and said, “It’s okay, it was probably just too spicy.”

Lin Che was naturally scared. If she brought him out to eat Mala soup and ended up making the president of Gu Industries sick, she would be in big trouble.

Even though Gu Jingze said that, she could tell that his face was becoming pale with pain.

Lin Che hurriedly said, “No, we need to go to the hospital. What if it’s food poisoning or something? That will be too dangerous.”

Gu Jingze could not hide his discomfort and thought for a while before taking his phone out, “Call Chen Yucheng.”

Oh right, he had his personal doctor.

Lin Che quickly took the phone and called Chen Yucheng.

“President Gu, you’ve been ignoring me for a while. I thought you really fired me,” Chen Yucheng answered.

“No… Dr. Chen, Gu Jingze is sick. Can you see…”

“Ah… Miss… Miss Lin?”

Soon, Gu Jingze and Lin Che were at Chen Yucheng’s place.

Chen Yucheng examined Gu Jingze and looked at him, “How strange. I thought you didn’t like to eat spicy food. How come you ate Mala soup and so much at that?”

Gu Jingze gave a silent, hard look at Chen Yucheng to shut him up.

Chen Yucheng turned to look at Lin Che at the side and already knew that it must have been because of Lin Che. Still, he wanted to poke fun at Gu Jingze.

Gu Jingze was never like this in the past. Ever since he got with Lin Che, he became much better to poke fun at. He was no longer the uninteresting and boring Gu Jingze.

Lin Che heard and her face turned red. She felt so guilty, “I’m sorry, Dr. Chen. It’s all because I brought him to eat it. He actually doesn’t like it. What do we do now? Is everything okay?”

Gu Jingze turned to her and said, “It’s not your fault.”

If he really didn’t want to eat something, nobody could say anything to make him eat it. It was just that it tasted good when eating with her and he was in a great mood, so he ate it willingly.

Now that his stomach was upset, he realized that it was not a good idea.

Chen Yucheng said, “It has nothing to do with you. His digestive system is just too fragile. You can relax, Madam, it’s just common gastroenteritis. He just needs to take medicine, rest, and also eat things that are easier to digest. Luckily, this is only the early stage. Otherwise, he might have ended up puking and having diarrhea.”

Lin Che’s mouth twitched. How did he get gastroenteritis just from some Mala soup?

Lin Che said, “I’m sorry, Gu Jingze. People like me grow up eating junk food so our digestive system adapts and become pretty much fearless. You were probably not used to it.”

Gu Jingze looked up, “Forget it, it’s okay.”

Chen Yucheng said, “If you’re still not well tomorrow, we’ll do something else. I think it looks fine for now.”

Gu Jingze nodded and Lin Che quickly helped him up.

She said to Chen Yucheng, “Sorry for the trouble this time, Dr. Chen.”

Gu Jingze replied, “Okay, he takes my money. There’s no trouble.”

Chen Yucheng pouted, “Madam is still the best.”

This Gu Jingze better learn from Lin Che to talk politely.

Lin Che continued blaming herself as she looked at Gu Jingze’s pale face. But his expression was still as silent as usual. She thought that he must be keeping himself from yelling in pain so that she would not blame herself.

“Gu Jingze, if you’re in discomfort, you can let it out. You don’t have to keep it all in,” Lin Che said.

Gu Jingze looked at her, “I’m not in discomfort.”

Lin Che felt even more guilty and sorry. He was really such a good man.

Soon, they arrived home.

Gu Jingze laid on the bed and Lin Che ran to serve him tea and water. She was extremely attentive to him.

Gu Jingze folded his arms and smiled as he watched her.

It was rare to see this girl being so honest.

Lin Che came in from outside again and looked at Gu Jingze. She asked, “Does it still hurt? Is the medicine working?”

Gu Jingze frowned slightly and said, “My stomach still hurts.”

“Ah, what shall I do?” Lin Che asked anxiously. “I should call and ask Dr. Chen or we should use the drip.”

“No need,” Gu Jingze halted her. “You can just come over and rub my stomach.”

“Huh,” Lin Che asked. “Will that be enough? But I don’t know how to rub.”

Gu Jingze replied, “Just come over and rub it.”

Lin Che did not think of anything else. She walked over and sat beside him. Gu Jingze took her hand and put it on his abdomen.

Lin Che hesitated and then began to rub, “Does this still hurt?” Her voice was now much gentler as if she was coddling a child.

Gu Jingze enjoyed it so much as he crossed his arms and directed Lin Che, “A little to the left.”

“A little to the right.”

“Yes, not bad.”

Lin Che rubbed and rubbed and felt that something was not right. She looked up to see Gu Jingze’s face. There was a pleasure on his face and his eyes were closed as if he was enjoying a massage. She immediately looked at him speechlessly, “Gu Jingze!”

She almost wanted to hit his stomach but was scared that he still had not recovered. She half-knelt on the bed and glared at him.

Gu Jingze asked, “What’s wrong? Continue.”

“Continue your ass. You lied to me. It looks like you aren’t even hurt!”

Gu Jingze laughed and hugged her into his embrace.

“Are you the roundworm in my stomach? How do you know I’m not in pain anymore?”

Lin Che angrily hit him while still in his arms, “What are you doing? Let go of me. Look at yourself. Do you look like you’re still in pain?”

This Gu Jingze was really getting worse. He even knew how to lie.

Gu Jingze hugged her waist and looked at her face, “It hurts. It really does.”

Lin Che looked at his furrowed brows and really wanted to smoothen his forehead.

Her voice softened as she said, “Then don’t fool around.”

Gu Jingze replied, “That’s why I need you to distract me. Talk to me more, rub my belly, and let me hug you so that it might hurt less.”

Lin Che blushed a little.

Why would hugging her make it not hurt anymore… She wasn’t medicine.

However, she continued letting him hug her and did not move for a long time.

Gu Jingze hugged her soft body in his arms. On one hand, he felt that it did not hurt as much anymore, but on the other hand, there was a different kind of discomfort in his body…

He wanted so badly to use another method and ease the pain…

The next day.

Gu Jingze woke up and felt that the pain was intolerable, so he went to Chen Yucheng’s place.

Chen Yucheng brought Gu Jingze and Lin Che to his clinic and asked someone to examine him with a machine.

Lin Che waited outside and helplessly thought that there was no effect at all from hugging her the whole night.

Just then, Lin Che heard her phone ring.

It was Shen Youran.

She said in a fluster, “Lin Che, I locked myself out of my house. My keys are in my room and I have nowhere to stay.”

Lin Che asked in shock, “What happened? Where’s Auntie and Uncle?”

“They brought my sister to the countryside.”
