Chapter 122: Chapter 122 To Pounce or Not to Pounce (8)
Because she didn’t care, she pretended not to see him with other women, because she didn’t care, she ignored that other women answered his calls. Because she didn’t care, she could casually say "I believe you" and dismiss him.
He had anticipated this response, but he still felt dissatisfied. There’s a saying about not turning back until hitting the south wall, yet he, on Chuxia, had hit his head till it bled but still hadn’t learned to turn back.
Che gave a cold laugh, but it wasn’t clear whether he was laughing at Chuxia or at himself.
When Chuxia said that, there was a moment of silence from Che, and her heart reflexively tightened. However, Che didn’t say anything but just gave a cold laugh, leaving Chuxia’s heart hanging in her throat.
She couldn’t see through Che’s other emotions, but she clearly understood the signs of his anger. Panic and regret flashed quickly in Chuxia’s eyes. Just as the atmosphere had eased slightly, it was shattered by her words.
Although she didn’t understand what was wrong with her response, she knew she was indeed clumsy with words, easily saying something wrong that could provoke Che.
Knowing this, she’d have been better off staying silent from the start.
Before Chuxia could finish her regrets, Che had already stepped on the accelerator again. The car shot forward rapidly, but this time, he floored the pedal. The speed indicator slid toward its maximum, and the car’s speed kept increasing, like lightning.
Chuxia, frightened, quickly grabbed the handhold above her head, her eyes widening and pupils contracting sharply.
She was the type who was terribly afraid of fast driving. Despite being fearless as a child, she was extremely scared of roller coasters and couldn’t bear to look at them. Now, this car, with the pedal fully pressed, was even scarier than a roller coaster. Chuxia’s heart involuntarily contracted.
She wanted to ask Che to slow down, but seeing his frosty face, she couldn’t bring herself to speak. She could only grip the handhold tightly and shut her eyes hard.
Running at full power, the car covered an hour’s journey in just half an hour and abruptly stopped at the front of the house. Che, without a glance at Chuxia, said with extreme coldness, "Get out!"
Chuxia, pale-faced and weak from the ride, hadn’t recovered yet when she heard Che’s command. She forced her eyes open, trembled as she looked at Che, and wanted to get out of the car quickly to escape him.
But... Che hadn’t come home in a long time. He had now brought her to the doorstep but showed no intention of returning.
Although she didn’t want him to stay under these circumstances, Chuxia clearly remembered that in a few days, she was due for a routine check-up when she would definitely meet Mrs. Shi, who would undoubtedly inquire about the pregnancy progress.
If she let Che leave now, she wouldn’t be able to explain herself to Mrs. Shi later.
Chuxia gripped her hands tightly, swallowed hard, and mustering courage, she spoke softly, "Young Master, it’s so late... Are you still going out?"
