The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage
Chapter 61: We're Going Back Now

Lin Che had lost track of how many times she said that she did not know what happened. She stated countless times that those drug deals had nothing to do with her at all.

Lin Che said, “Can I call my manager?”

The police officer snorted. “No.”

“Then can I call my family?”

“No to that too. I’ll let you make a call only after you confess.”

Lin Che said indignantly, “What gives you that right?”

The police officer said, “This is a special case. You brought it upon yourself since you’re a celebrity.”

From outside, a few police officers were watching the situation inside.

“This person probably just started to get popular. I’ve never seen her before.”

“Yes. She’s just a small celebrity without any background or backing. Otherwise, why would she be in this terrible situation?”

“Serves her right. Why would she get involved in some drug deal? Even if you have no background or backing, you can’t demean yourself like this.”

“She probably had no other way to get popular.”

“But she’s really quite beautiful. Eh, is it alright to lock her up like this?”

“Relax. How can a small celebrity like her overturn the heavens? Even if she gets whatever she wants outside, once she’s here, she’s just another criminal. She has to obey us.”

After an unknowingly long time, the police officer saw that he really could not elicit any information from her. Thus, he said that she could go out to make a call.

Lin Che picked up her phone and called Yu Minmin first. But unexpectedly, Yu Minmin still did not pick up.

Left with no choice, she thought it over and flipped through her phonebook. When she saw Gu Jingze’s number, she pondered for a bit before proceeding to call him.

“Beep, beep, beep. The number you have just called is temporarily unavailable.” Even he had switched off his phone too…

Lin Che was at her wit’s end. The police officer behind her hastened her impatiently. “Quickly make your calls. Are you going to call or not? If no one is picking up, then go back.”

Lin Che had no choice. As she flipped through her phonebook, she decided to just stop calling altogether. “Forget it. I have no one else I want to contact.”

Even if she was going to die, she still did not want to contact the Lin family. Aside from these people, she did not have anyone else to call.

Inside, Lin Che sat inside feeling slightly hopeless. She just felt that her entire body was unwell. She had not slept for a night and felt completely dizzy and groggy. The room was humid and gave her the chills. She could not help but lean against the side to take a rest. However, she felt that the chair and the wall were all ice-cold.

And on the other side.

Qin Hao stood at a side and said to Gu Jingze, “Sir, the airplane has already commenced landing. Right now, we’re in H Nation. There will be a team to receive us soon, so it’s time for you to change your clothes.”

Gu Jingze nodded before heading to the changing room to change his clothes. He had flown for five hours and worked the entire time on the plane. But once something cropped up, he could still perk up immediately as if he had slept that entire time.

The airplane landed in no time. He turned on his cellphone but instantly picked up a call from Mo Huiling.

“Jingze, hehe. I have a surprise for you.”

“What?” Gu Jingze asked in a confused tone.

“I’m in H Nation.”

Gu Jingze was momentarily stunned. He had not quite expected this.

He drew in a deep breath and could only say to her, “Alright, wait outside for me. H Nation’s ****** team is here to receive me. I’ll be busy for some time before I can go look for you.”

“Alright…” Mo Huiling pursed her lips and her voice sank. She was obviously a little unhappy.

Gu Jingze put down his phone, only to see a notification on the screen, indicating that he had missed another call the night before.

It was a call from Lin Che.

His entire body jolted and he immediately called her back with his phone.

At his side, Qin Hao was slightly anxious. While looking outside, he said to Gu Jingze, “Sir…”

Gu Jingze stretched out a hand and stopped Qin Hao from speaking.

The call got through in no time. However, the person on the other end was not Lin Che. Instead, it was an unfamiliar male voice.

“Who is this? This is the police station.” The person on the other end was very impatient.

“Where’s Lin Che?” He asked, frowning.

“Lin Che? She’s locked up. What’s your relationship with her?”

Locked up? A dim light flashed in Gu Jingze’s eyes.

He put down the phone and suddenly said to Qin Hao, “Cancel today’s schedule for the time being. Coordinate with the airline company and tell them we’re going back now.”

Qin Hao flinched. But when he looked at Gu Jingze’s solemn expression, he could only swallow his words that were going to contradict him.

“Lin Che, someone came to bail you out.” At this moment, she unexpectedly heard a police officer’s voice traveling from outside.

Lin Che did not think that there would be another turn of events. But when she walked out, she immediately saw that the person standing at the entrance… was Qin Qing.

Lin Che’s heart warmed instantly and she looked at him in pleasant surprise.

“Qin Qing, why are you here?”

As Qin Qing looked at Lin Che’s pale face, his heart immediately ached.

She looked like she was doing poorly; she looked haggard and restless, and her lips were as white as snow.

“The police called the Lin family and said that you’d been locked up. I was worried about you, so I came over to take a look.” Qin Qing held her up. Seeing that she was very weak, he simply slung her arm over his shoulder and carefully supported her as they walked out.

“Thank you, Qin Qing.” Lin Che thought, It was likely that the police really saw no other way, so they called her nominal family, the Lin family. In the end, the Lin family did not want to bother with her at all, so the person who came instead was Qin Qing.

Qin Qing said, “Let’s go. You look really unwell. I’ll take you home first. Where do you live?”

Lin Che could not say that she was living in the Gu mansion. Furthermore, in her current state, she did not want to go back either. She shook her head and said, “Just send me to a hotel.”

Qin Qing said, “Let’s go to my house instead. The hotel is too chaotic; there are reporters everywhere outside.

Lin Che’s eyes paused…

She had known Qin Qing since they were young, so she had gone to the Qin residence quite often. At this moment, she put down her pretense and nodded, intentionally neglecting his statement that there were reporters everywhere outside. She was in no mood to bother with those reporters.

However, when they arrived at the parking lot, both Lin Li and Han Caiying immediately rushed over from the opposite side.

“Lin Che, what are you doing?!” When Lin Li saw Lin Che physically held up by Qin Qing, she turned completely green in the face.

Han Caiying looked at Lin Che venomously as well. Sure enough, this little lass was still thinking of Qin Qing until now. She even dared to call Qin Qing; she was really asking for death.

Lin Li walked over in a few steps and pushed Lin Che aside.

Lin Che had already been tormented for one night and was thoroughly exhausted. Upon being pushed by Lin Li, she fell to the ground immediately.

Shocked, Qin Qing raised his head and yelled recklessly at Lin Li, “What are you doing?”

He quickly bent down to pick Lin Che up. “Lin Che, are you alright?”

Lin Che shook her head. She lifted her head and sneered as she looked at Lin Li.

Seeing that Qin Qing was so worried for Lin Che, Lin Li pointed at Lin Che even more angrily. “Lin Che, what exactly are you trying to do? Don’t you already have some powerful man sponsoring you? What happened now? You’ve been tossed aside, so you eagerly came to look for Qin Qing? How can you be so despicable and shameless?”

“Lin Li, that’s enough. What nonsense are you spouting?” Qin Qing sternly interrupted Lin Li’s tirade.

Lin Li looked at Qin Qing in a craze. “Qin Qing, you’re still defending her? I’m your fiancée! But you’re protecting her like this now! I’m not just spouting nonsense! I’m about to go crazy because I’m angry at you! That’s why I’m spouting nonsense!”

Behind her, Han Caiying hurriedly pulled her daughter towards her. She was worried that she would be unable to control herself due to her anger and offend Qin Qing.

She glared at Lin Che maliciously and said, “Lin Che, this is where you were wrong. You can do anything, but you had to get involved with drugs. You’re really too much; everyone can understand that you want to get famous, but how can you do such an ugly thing to get famous? What you’ve done is illegal and as a person, you shouldn’t stoop that low. No matter what, you’re still a member of the Lin family. Now that you’ve done this, the Lin family will also consequently lose face. You’re really thoughtless.”
