Chapter 646: Chapter 645: Not Treating You as a Stand-in (5)
If it were before, perhaps she would have been thrilled by Shi Che’s slightest bit of gentleness, an indulgent gaze, a faint gentle smile. But now, seeing everything he did, his kindness to her, his gentleness, his patience, all became the sharpest needles, piercing her heart viciously.
She didn’t know what Shi Che really wanted, she only knew that every minute, every second Shi Che was in front of her, it was torture for her.
She had tried so hard to forget him faintly, to keep herself from thinking about him. These days, she had finally calmed down, genuinely living her new life. But why did he have to appear again, why come and entangle her?
The hand Shi Che held the spoon with was forcefully pushed away, causing his body to be pushed to one side, and the other hand, which held the bowl, moved slightly, causing some porridge to spill out, splashing onto his hand.
The porridge, having cooled down, wasn’t very hot, but Shi Che felt the porridge splashed on the back of his hand burning his heart with pain. Her actions, her words, all told him how much she repulsed him. Even though he knew she hated him, at this moment, his eyes still involuntarily filled with deep sorrow.
But in just an instant, the sorrow in his eyes was hidden; he calmly set down the bowl of porridge, pulled a few tissues from the bedside table, and one by one wiped off the porridge splashed on the back of his hand, then picked up the bowl of porridge again, his dark eyes looking at Ling Chuxia, his pupils dark, showing no emotion as he opened his mouth and said gently, unaffected, "Drink the porridge first."
Ling Chuxia’s eyes widened incredulously. All her fury, in front of such a calm Shi Che, felt like punching cotton, irritating her to the point of clenched teeth, yet she was helpless.
However, the more indifferent Shi Che became, the more fiercely her anger burned, her wide eyes seemingly ablaze with raging fire, recklessly she reached out again, forcefully overturning the bowl of porridge in his hand, yelling loudly at him, "I won’t eat! I won’t eat anything, I just want you to leave! I don’t want to see you!"
With her roar, her cheeks reddened eerily, her eyes burning with flames, furiously glaring at him, she didn’t even care if her body was weak and feeble, she climbed down from the bed, grabbed Shi Che’s clothes, trying to push him out.
She had no strength at all, she couldn’t move Shi Che an inch, but her hands stubbornly clung to Shi Che’s shirt, teeth clenched, straining with force.
Shi Che could feel Ling Chuxia using up all her strength to pull him, he lifted his eyes, looking at Ling Chuxia standing in front of him, so angry, so resolute, clearly without any strength, yet still holding on to him.
Shi Che felt his heart, painfully twisting, he had thought he had gotten used to Chuxia’s hatred towards him, but he hadn’t expected that when she truly showed her utter powerlessness, it would hurt him so deeply, a pain making him wish he were dead.
Shi Che closed his eyes, suppressed all the pain in his heart, and when he opened his eyes again, they were even deeper, abyssal, unfathomably deep.
