Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 34 Donโt Hear the Old People Cry (4)
Ling Chuxiaโs words were interrupted by Ji Xinxinโs sharp remarks that were as piercing as ever. ๐๐๐ฎ๐๐๐๐๐ท๐๐ฟ๐๐ต.๐๐๐
Ling Chuxiaโs eyes flashed with a hint of sadness, but it was fleeting. She lowered her gaze and said softly, "I made him angry first."
Ji Xinxin snorted directly, her tone full of disdain, "With your passive demeanor, always taking punches without hitting back, are you really capable of making Shi Che angry first? Do you think Iโm a fool?"
Ling Chuxia also knew that her words were not convincing. She had always been respectful to Shi Che, so how could she possibly do something to anger him? She never understood why Shi Che was always mad at her.
Perhaps... her very existence was the root cause of Shi Cheโs anger.
Ling Chuxia didnโt know how to explain these things to Ji Xinxin, so she simply said, "Xinxin, I have to go home."
No matter how Shi Che treated her or how much embarrassment and grievance he caused, she could only endure it, never daring to resist. That was her fate.
Although Ling Chuxiaโs voice was weak, it carried a note of certainty, which made Ji Xinxin furious at her passivity.
She freed up one hand and, disregarding the Heavenly Empressโs composure and reserve, directly poked Ling Chuxiaโs wooden head, "Look, just look, youโre always like this, such a pushover! No wonder Shi Che walks all over you, making you suffer every day."
Ling Chuxia did not refute, just blinked her big eyes at Ji Xinxin, with a look of pleading and determination, "Xinxin, I want to go home."
Ji Xinxin was so furious that she slammed on the brakes, and the car screeched to a halt by the roadside. She yanked off her large sunglasses, stared wide-eyed at Ling Chuxia, opened her mouth, ready to say something to shake some sense into her, but in the end, she just smacked Ling Chuxiaโs head and exclaimed, "Serves you right for suffering!"
Old Zhu, following Shi Cheโs orders, turned the car around halfway to find Ling Chuxia, but by the time he returned to the original spot, Ling Chuxia was already gone.
Ling Chuxia had no money, no phone, and didnโt know the way, so where could she go?
Old Zhu, worried that something might happen to her, drove along the road searching, yet he couldnโt find any trace of Ling Chuxia. Feeling uneasy, he decided to call Shi Che to report the situation.
By then, Shi Che had already returned to the company and was about to attend a very important meeting. When his phone suddenly rang, he glanced at it and saw it was from Old Zhu. He answered the call directly.
As soon as the call connected, he heard Old Zhuโs anxious and worried voice, "Young Master, thereโs a problem. When I returned to the original spot, Young Madam was gone. I searched along the road back and forth but couldnโt find her, and she hasnโt returned home. Could something have happened to Young Madam?"
