Shi Che had almost no patience to wait for her answer. He suddenly stood up, his tall figure towering in front of Ling Chuxia. The next second, his hand reached out and grabbed Ling Chuxia’s collar. With a forceful tug, Ling Chuxia’s heels gradually left the ground, and her entire body seemed to be lifted into the air.
The light in Shi Che’s eyes was dark and gloomy, filled with a fierce and menacing intensity. His handsome face now looked like a demon from hell, fury surging up, almost as if he was about to tear someone apart. "I ask you, what is this all about?"
He threw each word at Ling Chuxia with such force and ferocity, carrying a thick murderous aura.
Ling Chuxia, with her collar seized by Shi Che and her feet off the ground, found it increasingly difficult to breathe. Her cheeks flushed crimson as she faced Shi Che’s nearly murderous gaze. At that moment, she genuinely felt that Shi Che wanted her dead.
Having made this choice, there was no turning back for her. The truth would be revealed sooner or later. She just hadn’t expected it to come this soon... this soon.
What could she say? She had nothing to say!
Ling Chuxia’s silence utterly shattered the last taut nerve in Shi Che. His hands suddenly exerted force, and he threw Ling Chuxia onto the bed. Then, kneeling on one knee, hovering over Ling Chuxia, his long, cold fingers fiercely gripped her delicate neck.
In his eyes hid a deep pain, too deep to be seen. He stared intensely at Ling Chuxia and said word by word, "Let me say it for you. This box should contain vitamins, but it turned out to be contraceptive pills. That box should contain Contraceptive Pills, but in the end, it turned out to be vitamins. And you, taking them punctually every day as if you’re afraid of being a moment late, are taking ’vitamins’!"
As Shi Che spoke, he even let out a laugh, his hands’ veins bulging, a sight to behold.
"Ling Chuxia, you’re really something. To get pregnant, to fulfill my mother’s task, you would do anything, you dare do anything. You’re treating me like a fool, aren’t you?"
When she called him, asking him to come home, when she said, "If you don’t want a child, then forget it," how he felt, she would never understand.
He had always known that everything she did for him was with a mission, with a purpose. Yet, even the pretend happiness he treasured so cautiously, so dearly.
He didn’t ask her to love him; at least, she shouldn’t always be thinking about how to manipulate him, how to use him to please Mrs. Shi.
She had married him, yet she had never really looked at him! Never for a moment did she really consider him.
Shi Che’s fingers, like iron clamps, were tightly locked around her neck. Ling Chuxia’s cheeks slowly turned from red to a slightly bluish-purple, almost truly struggling to breathe. As she listened to Shi Che’s words, she could only keep shaking her head.
In this matter, she indeed felt guilty, but she really had no other choice, that’s why she did it. She didn’t want to deceive him, nor did she ever treat him like a fool.
Ling Chuxia struggled to squeeze out a sentence with great difficulty from her throat, "Madam...really...hopes we could...have a child."
It would have been better if Ling Chuxia had not said this. The moment she did, it was like instantly igniting all of Shi Che’s flames of anger. His eyes turned a fierce red, and his handsome face appeared somewhat distorted amidst the flames of rage.
