Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 821 - 820: Mutation (3)

This unease slowly arose from deep within her, gathering, fermenting, spreading, causing her body to tremble involuntarily.

Shi Che noticed her trembling and lowered his eyes, his dark gaze falling on her face. His voice was hoarse, with the laziness following lovemaking, "What’s wrong?"

Ling Chuxia lifted her gaze. The light in the bedroom was dim, the weak glow casting on Shi Che’s handsome face, as if enveloping him within, beautiful yet somewhat illusory.

Ling Chuxia’s hand reached out unconsciously, her fingers touched Shi Che’s face, feeling the warmth of his skin, and her heart relaxed a little.

Noticing something off in her expression, Shi Che held her hand, his voice becoming softer, "Chuxia, what’s really wrong?"

Seeing the concern in Shi Che’s eyes, Ling Chuxia slowly shook her head, "It’s nothing..."

Shi Che furrowed his brows slightly, his dark eyes squinting, his gaze fixed on her face with an obvious disbelief.

Ling Chuxia sighed lightly, slowly speaking again, "Actually, I just feel too happy... a bit unreal."

Pausing, she lightly bit her lower lip and continued, "Shi Che, we’ll continue to be this happy forever, right?"

She had never imagined that one day she could be this happy with Shi Che, living as if in a fairy tale, but fairy tales aren’t reality, could they one day be suddenly broken?

Shi Che had heard Ling Chuxia say such things before, in Provence, she said the same thing. She felt happy, but there was always an undercurrent of unease in her tone.

A slight pain pricked Shi Che’s heart, after all, it was his past self that gave her such insecurity. So even in this time of happiness, it still couldn’t dispel her unease.

Shi Che’s dark eyes darkened slightly, but it was fleeting, a devilish smile curling at his lips, "What feels unreal?"

Holding Ling Chuxia’s hand, he guided her to touch his face, "Is it here?"

Then downward, to his chest, "Here?"

And then further down, to a certain part of him, "Or here?"

Ling Chuxia was lost in her worries, when suddenly her hand touched something hot, and she snapped back to reality, quickly withdrawing her hand with force, her large eyes glaring, gritting her teeth as she said, "Shi Che, you rascal!"

Shi Che, however, raised his eyebrow with a smile, his warm fingers gently stroking her brow, his voice low and warm, "Does this assure you I’m real?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

In an instant, his words flowed like a warm current, flooding into Ling Chuxia’s body, drowning her worries and insecurity.

Shi Che must have sensed her unease, which is why he deliberately used this method to soothe her.

As Ling Chuxia’s gaze remained on Shi Che, gradually filling with gentleness, she leaned closer and softly kissed Shi Che’s lips. Her voice was still low, but without the previous panic and unease, "Shi Che, thank you."

Shi Che looked at Ling Chuxia, the teasing in his eyes gradually subsiding, his expression growing slightly serious, "Chuxia, a week from now, we’ll be married. Then, I’ll be your husband, and you’ll be my wife. We’ll live happily just like every loving couple in the world. So, don’t think of happiness as an illusion, and don’t doubt it. Face it openly, okay?"
