Chapter 675: Chapter 674: You Care About Me (2)
Chuxia’s heart suddenly contracted. What was she really doing?
It seemed that the things Shi Che had done and the words he had spoken to her yesterday had affected her far more than she had assumed. In the end, Shi Che had indeed shaken her heart.
Realizing this, Chuxia’s hand clutching her purse tightened even more, her fingertips turning slightly white.
She closed her eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and tried to calm the turbulent emotions caused by Shi Che’s departure. Her red lips parted slightly as she continued in a cold voice, "I just hope that this will be the last time we meet."
Shi Che had thought about it all night and still couldn’t persuade himself to let go. Yet, when Ling Chuxia pleaded with him twice, he couldn’t ignore her feelings either. He didn’t want to push her to such exhaustion and helplessness. Conveniently, there was a significant collaboration at the company that Xiao Zhao couldn’t handle for him, so he planned to return to Liang City for a while. On one hand, he could handle the collaboration, and on the other... his departure would also give Ling Chuxia some relief.
He really didn’t want to keep pushing her so hard.
His departure, however, didn’t mean he was giving up. He would come back later to fight for Chuxia’s love. In this lifetime, he only recognized one Ling Chuxia; there was no way he could give up on her.
If in the end, he was able to have her, it would be his fortune. If not, he would wait for that man who would appear by Chuxia’s side. If she was happy, he would... try hard to let go.
So he spoke, trying to tell Chuxia that he would be in Liang City for a while and would come back later, but he hadn’t expected to be interrupted by Ling Chuxia’s angry words. Just as he was pondering the meaning behind Chuxia’s anger, another sentence from Ling Chuxia completely shattered his heart again.
The last meeting...
She always thought about not wanting to see him, while he hoped to always see her.
So... he could agree to anything for her, but this, he could not agree to.
Shi Che’s dark eyes slightly drooped, emotions shifting beneath, and then slowly, he raised his eyes, looking at the steel wall of the elevator, which reflected Ling Chuxia’s figure. She stood there, her thick lashes drooping, hiding the expression in her eyes, making it impossible for him to read her thoughts. However, he had to make it clear to her that he was only leaving temporarily and had no intention of giving up.
"Chuxia, actually I..."
No sooner had Shi Che started speaking than the lights in the elevator flickered a few times, and both were startled. The next second, the elevator, which had been moving slowly, jolted violently and stopped abruptly.
Everything happened so quickly and unexpectedly, leaving both Ling Chuxia and Shi Che slightly altered in complexion, and Shi Che’s words were thus interrupted.
Almost a minute after the elevator steadied, Shi Che was the first to regain his composure. His dark eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze quickly falling on Ling Chuxia’s face, his voice low and filled with concern, "Chuxia, are you alright?"
Although Ling Chuxia’s reaction was slow, upon hearing Shi Che’s voice, she also somewhat came to her senses. She gently clenched her hand and slowly shook her head, "I’m fine."
Seeing that she was indeed not seriously hurt, Shi Che breathed a sigh of relief. He then examined the elevator, his brow slightly furrowed, and said in a deep voice, "It seems the elevator is malfunctioning."
He walked over to the control panel, preparing to call for help, when the previously still elevator... shook again, and then...
