Chapter 1333 Spending Quality Time With You
In the office, Lin Che gleefully said to him, “Take a guess. What do you think I brought?”
Gu Jingze turned to stand behind his desk and looked across it. Lin Che leaned over the office table until her face was close to his. Her mysterious ways were adorable even though she was already a mother of two, had her own studio and company, and was no longer the silly young lady. In the eyes of others, she was a successful person but she was still a child at heart.
Seeing how close she was to his face, he gave her a peck on the lips.
“You being here is already a surprise. There’s not a need to bring anything.”
Lin Che’s heart skipped a beat. She felt it pounding.
“Annoying. Stop teasing me.” She pursed her lips and said, “But I already brought it here.”
“What?” he asked.
She got serious and commanded, “Only praises, not one bit of disdain!”
“Oh, this comes with an order as well.”
“No no, it’s a must. No disdain!”
“Alright, alright. No disdain and it must be praised.” He was amused by her demeanor.
There was still an order to give compliments, eh?
But it was not easy to earn his praise.
However, if it was her, getting forced for a bit was just as well.
In this world, only she could give such a command to him.
In an instant, a small little bento box was placed in front of him.
He was surprised for a moment and looked at her without saying a word. His face showed worry. “Must I compliment it?”
Lin Che pouted. “What kind of face is that? So reluctant!”
If it was other things, perhaps he could still believe that she could do it well. But…
It was cooking.
He predicted it would not be easy to give compliments.
He said, “It’s… not impossible. If it’s a lie, it’s just gibberish.”
“Y-y-you…”
Lin Che was maddened by him and stretched her arm out towards him. Seeing him laugh, she punched his chest. “You get lost. It’s not that scary. It must be nice since the chef watched me do it.”
“Alright alright. Why are you so worked up? I believe you.”
She scoffed and looked at him threateningly. Her eyes seemed to warn that if he were to show any signs of disdain, he would have to watch out.
The bento box was opened slowly.
Upon seeing the insides, Gu Jingze said immediately, “The presentation is not bad.”
Lin Che nodded. “That is true.”
“Did you really make this?”
“Oh, you dare to doubt me?” Lin Che shot him a look.
“No no.” Gu Jingze laughed awkwardly. Seeing Lin Che bringing the chopsticks over, he hurriedly said, “Alright alright, won’t it be easy once I start eating?”
Lin Che stared at him.
He lifted his head. “How am I supposed to eat when you’re staring at me like this?”
Lin Che shot him a second look. “Why aren’t you eating? Hurry up and eat for me.”
Gu Jingze laughed at the sight of her resembling a tiger.
“Okay okay, I will eat.”
With a mouthful, he felt that it did not taste as bad as he thought it would be.
At least, it was better than her previous attempts. It was much better this time and definitely edible.
It seemed like it would not poison someone to death.
He ate in mouthfuls as Lin Che watched from the side. It was only when he finished everything that she clapped her hands in glee.
Seeing her being finally satisfied, Gu Jingze asked, “Can I put the chopsticks down now?”
“Oh-oh, you can start complimenting.” Lin Che put her hands on her waist and replied.
Gu Jingze looked like he was in agony.
Lin Che immediately shot him a look for the third time.
Gu Jingze said, “Okay okay okay. My wife is really beautiful and generous, kind and adorable, and does everything well.”
He leaned over the table and pulled her over.
“Hey hey, what are you doing?”
Lin Che struggled to get away as she fell into his embrace when she got pulled over.
He hugged her and said, “My compliments can’t be compared to how much I love you.”
He bit her neck.
“Hey, you’re biting the hand that fed you.”
“No, I’m just not feeling full yet. It was nice food but not as nice as eating you.”
As he hugged and kissed her, Lin Che’s body trembled as her neck got tickled. She kept saying, “Let go, let go, let go. Gu Jingze, you’re tickling me to death.”
Gu Jingze let go of her and looked at her face. “Thank you.”
He became serious in an instant and she was at a loss of what to do.
Gu Jingze tugged onto her. “You’re treating me well.”
Lin Che lowered her head in embarrassment. “Is this well?”
“Of course.”
“But I’ve never made a meal for you before.”
“You don’t have to. It’s the thoughts that count.”
“However, other wives always cook up meals for them… How about I cook proper meals for you in future?”
“No, I don’t want to tire you out.” He kissed her hand. “Your hands are nice to look at, so I don’t want you to be slogging it out in the kitchen every day.”
Lin Che’s heart became weak again.
However, she frowned at him and threatened, “You sure it’s not because the food is too terrible and you don’t want to have it anymore?”
“…” Gu Jingze chuckled. “You’ve become smart now.”
“…” Lin Che was stunned for a moment and she only reacted later.
What he had meant was that she had cleverly guessed correctly.
That meant that what she said was right.
Lin Che put on her fiercest look. “Gu Jingze!”
“Alright alright. I’ll stop teasing you. It wasn’t bad. I liked it.”
Actually, it did not matter what he ate. He was full if she could come and he could see her.
It was more fulfilling if he had the chance to eat what she prepared.
He said, “But, I meant what I said. I don’t want you to tire out. You don’t have to worry about me. I can take care of myself. I know my limits.”
“I don’t think you do.” Lin Che looked at him and sighed. “Look at you. You haven’t had lunch right?”
“I…”
Lin Che continued, “You’re already more forgetful than I am and men have a shorter lifespan than women. If you don’t start cherishing yourself… Then in the future, do you wish to leave me all alone in this world?”
Thinking about this, Lin Che was suddenly horrified.
She could not imagine a life without him. What meaning was there if she had to live life by herself?
Gu Jingze was silent. He looked at Lin Che and slowly went closer. He caressed her hands and his chin touched her forehead.
Any other warnings would not work but this very sentence was etched deeply in his heart.
“Alright, I promise you. I’ll have proper meals.”
She smiled gently.
The two of them stayed in the office for quite some time before Lin Che left.
Gu Jingze said, “But there are indeed improvements in your cooking. You see, I’m still alive. I didn’t get poisoned to death. Which means it’s still alright…”
“Get lost!”
She must have married a fake husband.
