Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 896 - 895: Don’t Touch Xiaxia’s Child (15)
"Xiao Chen, I was originally planning to listen to you and let it go. I really didn’t want to fuss with Ling Chuxia, but she insists on picking a bone with me. I can’t swallow this, I can’t!"
Facing Xiao Chen, her tone was no longer aggressive, but soft, gentle, pitiful.
Even though she spoke words of hatred, Xiao Chen couldn’t find a response to refute her.
This frail Yun Shu, just like when he saw her in the United States, was so tender and heartbreaking, heartbroken enough that he fell deeply for her, even to the point of being unable to extricate himself.
Xiao Chen closed his eyes deeply, slowly raised his hands, and embraced Ling Yunshu’s slender body. Her body trembled violently, causing him to hold her even tighter, his hands clasped firmly around her.
In his heart, Ling Yunshu had always been this soft, this pitiful, this much in need of protection, so he had once said he would protect her without reservation. But now, he had still let her get hurt...
The moment Xiao Chen’s hands wrapped around Ling Yunshu, she clearly felt the man’s softening. In recent times, no matter what she did or said, Xiao Chen had always ignored her, even though he still attended to her with warmth and care, he refused to hear a word about Shi Che and Ling Chuxia.
Originally, she thought today’s humiliation was for nothing, but now, it became the perfect tool to sway Xiao Chen again.
Initially, she really didn’t think she could do anything to Ling Chuxia, but Ling Chuxia herself delivered the opportunity to her doorstep, so she couldn’t be blamed.
Between her and Ling Chuxia, it was destined to be a fight to the death!
Some things are better left unsaid, so Ling Yunshu stopped talking, quietly nestled in Xiao Chen’s embrace, crying silently. Her tears soaked through the cloth of his chest, seeping into the skin, slicing Xiao Chen’s flesh like a small knife.
He held Yun Shu tightly for quite a while before he opened his eyes. His hand slowly pushed her away, his gaze resting on Yun Shu’s face, his voice laced with extreme pain, "Yun Shu, let me tend to your wound first."
This time, Ling Yunshu had no objections, obediently letting Xiao Chen tend to her wound. Yet, as he applied the medicine, no matter how gentle his touch was, she would occasionally wince in pain, furrowing her eyebrows, causing Xiao Chen’s hands to tremble. He had to restrain himself to finish applying the medicine.
Once the wound was treated, Xiao Chen went to the bathroom to wash his hands. Ling Yunshu sat on the bed, her eyes slightly narrowed, a flicker of hatred and malice crossing her gaze.
The ploy of gaining sympathy worked, so next, she had to pursue her advantage and have Xiao Chen help her once more. This time, she was determined to ensure Ling Chuxia would never rise again.
When Xiao Chen came out of the bathroom, the expression on Ling Yunshu’s face had returned to its usual softness and pitiful look. Xiao Chen sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her still shocking face even after the medication, his heart aching painfully.
He took a light breath, his voice gentle beyond words, "Yun Shu, have a good sleep."
Even before he finished speaking, Ling Yunshu obviously refused to just sleep like that. She lowered her eyelids slightly, a glint flashing quickly in her eyes, then gazed at Xiao Chen with tearful eyes, speaking in a low voice, "Xiao Chen, I can’t sleep right now. Stay with me, please."
