Chapter 668: Chapter 667 I Will Prove My Love for You (9)
If it were any other day, Shi Che would have followed Ling Chuxia, but with the rain being so heavy today, he could not bear to watch her go home in the rain.
As Ling Chuxia passed by him, his hand suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
Ling Chuxia stared in astonishment and looked at him, her expression immediately darkening, "Let go of me!" she said, struggling to shake off Shi Che’s hand as if his touch was unbearable to her.
A trace of dimness flashed through Shi Che’s somber eyes, but it quickly returned to normal. The strength with which he held Ling Chuxia’s wrist wasn’t strong, yet it was enough to prevent her from breaking free.
His voice was calm, word by word, "I will take you home." His sentence was brief but resolute, carrying a tone that brooked no resistance, just as he had always done.
Listening to him, Ling Chuxia suddenly laughed. His behavior over the past week had led her to believe he might have really changed, but apparently, she was thinking too much.
Shi Che was still Shi Che, no matter how well he masked himself, deep down he was still the same arrogant person.
"I don’t need you to take me!"
Ling Chuxia’s voice inadvertently rose a bit, her eyes full of immense sarcasm as she stared at Shi Che, "You’re just worried I’ll get caught in the rain, right? Fine, I’ll take a cab! That way, I surely won’t get wet, right? Now, you can let go, can’t you?"
The mockery in Ling Chuxia’s eyes was so deep, so intense. Even though Shi Che had grown accustomed to her coldness over this period, it still hurt him somewhat.
In her heart, he was always the man with ulterior motives, and yet he was just... worried she might get rained on, might get a fever again.
She wouldn’t let him stay by her side to take care of her, and she couldn’t take good care of herself alone...
But even so... he would never force her... not in this lifetime... he would never force her again...
The light in Shi Che’s dark eyes completely dimmed, and his grip on her wrist gradually loosened. Before he could fully let go, Ling Chuxia eagerly shook off his hand and without looking back at him again, she took a step to leave.
Lin Shasha was completely stunned when she saw Shi Che appear.
Others might not recognize Shi Che at first glance, but she had met him. Such a handsome and charismatic big boss, how could she possibly forget him?
However, the scene unfolding between Ling Chuxia and Shi Che shocked her even more, her eyes widened, and her jaw felt like it was about to drop to the ground.
During the last dinner, there was something odd about the interaction between Shi Che and Ling Chuxia. Still, as one was a junior employee and the other a big boss, Lin Shasha didn’t delve deeper. But now, overhearing their conversation, she couldn’t help but think more deeply!
This... this... clearly, there’s something between them!
And more importantly, the big boss in front of Ling Chuxia was actually... so... humble? And Ling Chuxia... usually so gentle, was actually... so... cold and noble?
Had their roles somehow been reversed?
Lin Shasha’s dark eyes spun as she suddenly thought about the lavish lunches every day this past week and the previous champagne and roses!
Could it be... that the big boss was pursuing Chuxia?
