Why did Shi Che always treat her this way? She had returned and seen Shi Che, yet he hadn’t even offered her a smile, not to mention... not even a proper glance, right?
She really didn’t understand, how was she any different from Chuxia?
Even though they looked exactly alike, even though she had now changed her own temperament, trying to make herself more lively, more mischievous, he still wasn’t willing to spare her a second look?
She couldn’t accept it, really couldn’t accept it.
It seemed that Ling Chuxia must leave, must leave as soon as possible. She had to send Ling Chuxia far away, so that he would never see Ling Chuxia in his lifetime!
Ling Chuxia’s footsteps gradually turned into a jog, running all the way, Ling Yunshu’s words echoing in her ears over and over again, like a sharp blade repeatedly slicing her heart, too painful to bear.
When she was nearly out of strength, she finally collapsed, slumping onto a bench in the corridor, tears falling like pearls with broken strings, dropping one by one.
To leave... Turns out that divorce wasn’t enough, he hoped that she would completely disappear from his world and never wanted to see her again.
When he became heartless, he was indeed terrifying.
He didn’t want the child that carried his blood; even after the divorce, he couldn’t tolerate her presence and wanted to send her away, far away. Just like her elder sister, who was exiled to a foreign land.
But at least her elder sister could still look forward to a return, whereas once she was sent away, she wouldn’t have a return date, would she?
From then on, she would really be all alone.
No, no, she didn’t want that, Ling Chuxia vehemently shook her head, her arms wrapping around herself, holding herself tightly, yet no matter how tight she held herself, her body still couldn’t stop trembling.
She could leave, could stay out of their sight, but she didn’t want to go abroad. She didn’t want to be sent out of the country.
When Ling Chuxia returned to the hospital room, it was already quite late. Sister Hua saw her staggering in and couldn’t help but speak, "Young Madam, why have you returned so late...?"
Her words stopped abruptly when she saw Ling Chuxia’s ghastly pale face; her eyes widened in alarm, "Young Madam, you... what happened to you?"
Where was she still a Young Madam? Now, she was nothing more than someone driven out by the Shi Family.
Ling Chuxia stared blankly, looked at Sister Hua, and let out a self-mocking laugh, her voice hoarse, "Sister Hua, don’t call me Young Madam anymore. I’m no longer the Young Madam of the Shi Family."
Sister Hua’s words stalled, and she thought to herself, where was she not the Young Madam? The young master hadn’t gone through with the divorce at all.
But in the end, the young master had agreed to get engaged to Yun Shu, so the matter of divorce was only a matter of time, right?
Sister Hua sighed softly, not saying anything more, "Yes, Miss Chuxia."
The words Miss Chuxia slowly reached Ling Chuxia’s ears, and her expression became somewhat vacant.
When she first married Shi Che, Ling Chuxia was very unaccustomed to the title of Young Madam, feeling as if she was stealing her sister’s title, but now that she was finally not the Young Madam, but Miss Chuxia, she unexpectedly felt even more unaccustomed, even more reluctant...
Ling Chuxia abruptly shook her head, casting all these thoughts out of her mind. At last, her hands clenched tightly, and she started speaking in a low voice, "Sister Hua, I’m thinking of checking out of the hospital tomorrow."
