Chapter 666: Chapter 665 I Will Prove My Love for You (7)
Lin Shasha was speaking, and at the same time, she winked suggestively at Ling Chuxia, "Who sent this one? Is it from the person who sent the champagne roses last time?"
Lin Shasha just wanted to tease Ling Chuxia, but she did not expect that just as she finished her sentence, Ling Chuxia’s expression had suddenly turned extremely ugly. She abruptly stood up, packed the lunchbox Lin Shasha had taken out back into the bag, and then headed towards the wastebasket, throwing it in without hesitation.
Her movements were neat and decisive, leaving Lin Shasha with her eyes widened and mouth hanging open in shock, unable to close it for a long while. It took a moment for her to recover, and even then, her words were stuttering, "Chuxia... Xiaxia, what’s wrong with you?"
From the time she had known Ling Chuxia, her personality had always been that of a very "gentleness" and soft-hearted woman. Lin Shasha had truly never seen her this cold and indifferent, and it stunned her.
Ling Chuxia walked back to her seat and sat down, her voice slightly hoarse, "It’s nothing, just something from an annoying person. I don’t want it."
An annoying person?
This was the first time Lin Shasha had ever heard Ling Chuxia speak in such a harsh tone. Even when Ai Li had targeted her before, she showed no emotional fluctuations, as if she were incapable of anger. Yet, unexpectedly, there were people she disliked.
Lin Shasha looked at Ling Chuxia’s expression. Although curious, she knew it wasn’t the right time to ask and so tried hard to suppress her gossipy nature. Her eyes glanced toward the bag on the waste bin, and she couldn’t help but sigh, "Xiaxia, even though you dislike that person, this takeout is innocent. It’s from Century Hotel, and the cost of this takeout might be equal to our monthly salary. Doing this... is such a waste."
After a pause, she added with deep regret, "If you won’t eat it, you could give it to me!"
That evening after work, Ling Chuxia and Lin Shasha left the company together. Because Lin Shasha had her boyfriend come to pick her up, they waved goodbye at the entrance, and Ling Chuxia walked a few steps toward the subway entrance. There, she saw Shi Che standing under a streetlight.
His figure was tall and straight, handsome and elegant, standing there quietly as if he existed in a different world.
This time, Ling Chuxia didn’t pause for even a moment. No ripple of emotion appeared in her eyes, and she simply walked past him. Shi Che, with a serene look, accepted the outcome as if it were expected, quietly following behind her as he had that morning.
-
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
Since that day, Shi Che had almost been repeating the same routine every day, accompanying her to work in the morning, delivering her to the company. At noon, he would order food for her, which at first was only for her, but each time she threw it away without hesitation. Later, it was uncertain if he had learned about this, as he began ordering for the entire office as well, which meant that whenever she tried to throw it away, she inevitably faced the watchful eyes and persuasion of the whole office. In the end, she had to keep the food while suppressing her frustration, yet she never took a bite. Then, in the evening, he would follow her home after work.
No matter how much Ling Chuxia ignored him, treated him coldly, or rejected him, he seemed oblivious, continuing to do his own thing. On the surface, Ling Chuxia appeared calm, but deep down, she was becoming more irritable and frenzied by the day.
