Chapter 687: Chapter 686: The Text Message Wasn’t Sent by Me (4)
Looking like this, given Miss Chuxia’s character, it was impossible for her to ignore him. She would always come back—he had to ask clearly, what about the text message?
-
When Ling Chuxia dialed the number, she habitually called Ling Yunshu’s phone. After all, Ling Yunshu and Shi Che were currently fiancés, and she was the most appropriate person to take care of him. But as she was about to press the call button, her hand hesitated. Suddenly, she didn’t want to call her elder sister over.
As this thought slipped into her brain, Ling Chuxia herself was thoroughly shaken. What was she doing? How could she harbor such a thought?
Could it be that, despite her saying she didn’t trust Shi Che’s words, subconsciously, she really believed what Shi Che said—that he and her sister had nothing to do with each other?
No, it wasn’t like that. She just didn’t want her sister to come over and see Shi Che together with her again, didn’t want her sister to misunderstand anything again.
Yes, it was just that, it was only that!
Ling Chuxia tried to convince herself and ended up not calling her elder sister, but called Xiao Zhao instead.
After all, if she called Sister Hua, then Madam would find out, and it would surely be another big hassle. Calling Xiao Zhao was the most appropriate thing to do.
-
Shi Che waited and waited; he didn’t know how long it had been. Finally, the door of the ward was pushed open again. A flash of light sped across Shi Che’s dark eyes. His thin lips slightly parted, ready to call out "Chuxia", only to see a tall, skinny figure walk in from behind the door.
The two characters on Shi Che’s throat were suddenly stuck there, unable to make a sound, and the expectation in the depths of his eyes turned into gloom.
His dark eyes stared at Xiao Zhao, icy and chill, staring directly at Xiao Zhao until the latter felt a shiver down his spine upon just entering.
"Why did you come?" Shi Che’s low voice sounded, unmistakably cold.
Xiao Zhao, facing Shi Che’s icy stare and hearing his cold question, couldn’t help feeling wronged.
You see, the moment he received a call from Ling Chuxia and learned that Shi Che had fallen in an elevator, he was so scared that he fell off his chair, then, without any time to pack his things, he rushed to the airport and took the fastest flight. As soon as he landed, he took a taxi straight there. Before he could even exchange pleasantries, he was met with such disdain from his own boss. His voice immediately took on a wronged tone, "President Shi, such a big thing happened, why didn’t you say a word to me... I was nearly scared to death when Miss Chuxia called."
Even though he had already guessed, the moment Xiao Zhao uttered the words "Miss Chuxia", Shi Che’s heart still sank a little.
Indeed, when Ling Chuxia hardened her heart, she didn’t leave any leeway.
She looked so gentle and weak, but in fact, she knew best how to crush his heart.
As Shi Che thought, his expression darkened. He had probably guessed that there was a serious misunderstanding between him and Chuxia that had led to their current situation, and this misunderstanding was related to the text message and the child.
If this misunderstanding were cleared up, then he and Chuxia might be able to start over.
But now, was Chuxia trying to avoid him?
Before, he didn’t understand her feelings, so he didn’t dare to make a move carelessly. That’s why he trod carefully, walking on eggshells, but now, he absolutely wouldn’t allow her to run away again!
