Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 850 - 849: As Long As You Don’t Leave Me (7)

"Chuxia..."

Shi Che called Ling Chuxia’s name softly, his voice tender and light. His hand reached out tentatively and slowly grasped Ling Chuxia’s wrist. He could feel Ling Chuxia’s hand tremble slightly with force, yet she restrained herself from shaking him off.

His heart steadied a bit, his hand gradually tightened, and then he slowly pulled Ling Chuxia into his embrace. Ling Chuxia leaned against his chest, her body stiff. His hand rested on her back, gently stroking it bit by bit.

Ling Chuxia’s face pressed against Shi Che’s chest, her tears soaking through his clothes. Her voice was low, filled with endless despair, "But Shi Che... I’ve been tainted... tainted..."

Ling Chuxia spoke hoarsely, each word tearing at her heart, ripping it apart piece by piece.

"No, you’re not tainted!"

Shi Che’s hands suddenly cupped Ling Chuxia’s face, his thin lips pressing straight down towards her.

Ling Chuxia’s eyes widened in shock. The next second, she seemed to realize what Shi Che intended to do, and she started to struggle violently.

Shi Che understood that at this moment, doing such things with Ling Chuxia was inappropriate. But he knew in his heart that if he didn’t forcefully help Ling Chuxia wash away her inner humiliation at this time, this shadow would affect her for a lifetime! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

He couldn’t just stand by and watch her remain in such pain. It was better to endure the pain once and for all.

With this thought, Shi Che held Ling Chuxia even tighter, ignoring her protests, and kissed her deeply. Ling Chuxia continued to struggle, "No, Shi Che, no."

In her current state, how could she do such things with Shi Che?

A flash of deep pain flickered in Shi Che’s eyes, but he suppressed it deeply. He released her lips slightly, staring intensely into her eyes with his dark gaze, "No to what? Chuxia, don’t forget, tonight is our wedding night. We’re husband and wife, we’re supposed to do this."

"No."

Ling Chuxia shook her head forcefully, her hands instinctively gripping her collar tightly, her fingertips turning white.

Shi Che said nothing more. Instead, he used both arms, lifting Ling Chuxia horizontally, and carried her upstairs. Entering the bedroom, he placed Ling Chuxia on the dragon-phoenix motif red quilt. His tall body pressed down as his kiss fell on her again. On her fair skin were still those glaring marks, which Shi Che kissed away without a second thought.

Soon, the previous marks were covered, leaving only his.

Ling Chuxia struggled in embarrassment, but Shi Che held her down firmly. Only after he covered all the marks on Ling Chuxia from head to toe did he lift his eyes.

He stared at her fixedly, his warm, large hand caressing her trembling body, sliding over those marks bit by bit. He spoke in a low, hoarse voice, one word at a time, "Chuxia, look, here, here, here, and here, they are all me, my marks, my imprints. You’re not tainted, not in the least. If you’re tainted, then I’m tainted too. We’re tainted together."

Sometimes, words seem so powerless, but other times, they are so moving.

All the pain and unease in her heart seemed to gradually disappear with Shi Che’s actions and his words.
