Ling Chuxia was jolted by the heavy sound of the door slamming shut, the coldness in her chest spreading gradually to her entire body.

Even before she ca up, she had ntally prepared herself, but when faced with the reality, her heart still began to ache densely and finely.

Shi Che truly didn’t want to see her. Perhaps, the night he went out to look for her, it was only because he was afraid that she might get into so trouble that could tarnish the Shi Family’s reputation?

She actually... actually felt a shaful surge of joy when she heard Sister Hua say that.

Ling Chuxia lowered her eyes, her nose feeling sour, and the acidity surged straight to her eyes, which gradually beca moist. Her hands clenched tightly, and she took a fierce sniff.

No, she couldn’t give up like this. She promised her elder sister that she would hold onto her position, waiting for her to return. Now, she absolutely couldn’t allow Shi Che to dislike her; she had to calm his anger.

Ling Chuxia looked up, staring hard at that door, her hands clenching tighter and tighter. Then, she took a deep breath, opened the door, and stepped into the room.

Shi Che was standing with his back to her, at the window, though standing still, his body radiated an extre chill that made one shiver despite not being cold.

With the experience of these three years, Ling Chuxia knew how angry and furious Shi Che was at the mont, and it would be best for her to keep her distance, but now, she couldn’t leave, no matter how scared she was.

Ling Chuxia suppressed her trembling and took a few steps forward.

Shi Che’s cold voice suddenly sounded, "Get out." Every word sounded as if it was mixed with extre disgust, heading straight for Ling Chuxia.

Ling Chuxia’s face turned slightly pale, her teeth tightly clenched, her steps didn’t stop, and in fact, she sped up her pace as if afraid she would suddenly lose her courage, quickly advanced a few steps, spread her arms, and hugged Shi Che’s waist from behind, her body leaning into Shi Che, her cheek pressed against his broad back.

With Ling Chuxia’s embrace, Shi Che was completely taken by surprise. When the soft body pressed against him, his entire being shook violently, his eyes montarily hazy.

Through the thin shirt, Ling Chuxia could feel Shi Che’s muscles tensing up, his body temperature very low, so low that she involuntarily shivered.

Fearing that Shi Che would tell her to leave again the next second, she shakily spoke out, word by word, "I’m sorry, I was wrong, sorry..."

That haze was instantly shattered by her apologies, Shi Che’s dark pupils sunk completely, his hands grabbed Ling Chuxia’s hands that were around his waist, forcefully pried them open, his voice deep, almost roaring, "I told you to get out!"

Shi Che’s strength was imnse, the grip on her wrists extrely painful. Ling Chuxia’s brows furrowed tightly, she couldn’t help but gasp in pain, but whether it was out of stubbornness or genuine fear of being chased away by Shi Che, as soon as he pushed her away, she hugged him again, refusing to let go.

The headache made Shi Che increasingly irritable, his handso face slightly twisted from pain and anger, his eyes tinted with a trace of red, his ears filled with her humbling apologies, anger completely engulfing Shi Che’s heart. His hands showed no rcy as he pried Ling Chuxia’s hands apart and flung them fiercely behind him.

Shi Che’s strength was too great, and for a mont Ling Chuxia couldn’t stand steadily, pushed backward by that force, and her hand inadvertently hit a vase. The vase fell to the floor and shattered. The next second, her whole body stepped onto the broken pieces and plumted to the ground with a heavy fall.
