Chapter 201: Chapter 200 You Don’t Deserve to Have My Child (6)

Is it true that if there’s no expectation, there’ll be no hurt?

When Ling Yunshu married Shi Che, her feelings were incredibly complex. To her, Shi Che had always been a good friend, someone she grew up with and had always believed would become her sister’s husband.

Yet, no one had anticipated that it would end up with him marrying her.

At that time, she was exceptionally angry with him because he had betrayed her most beloved elder sister. Furthermore, her feelings for him had always been that of a good friend, a buddy, yet he had become her husband, which felt incredibly awkward to her.

She really wanted to know what Shi Che was thinking, but since her elder sister forbade her from asking, she could only suppress her questions inside her heart. No matter how much she agonized over it, she couldn’t find a way to get clear answers.

Yet, she held a grudge against Shi Che in her heart. After their marriage, even though she couldn’t ignore him, her attitude towards him was often sarcastic and distant.

However, back then, Shi Che was especially kind to her, extraordinarily kind, so much so that every time she was unreasonably temperamental, she lacked confidence in her behavior.

Even before their marriage, her relationship with Shi Che had been good—a friendship born out of sharing a bowl of noodles that continued into adulthood. But this kind of goodness was different from the kindness after marriage.

She could feel his gentleness, his doting, his tenderness. Back then, he would always smile, look at her gently, softly caress her face, kiss her in the morning light, and cover her with a blanket in the darkness of night.

Deep down, she had always been someone who craved warmth, not needing a life of wealth, luxurious living, or material possessions. Just a little bit of warmth was enough to capture her heart.

She simply couldn’t resist Shi Che’s warmth, which permeated her life like the air, bit by bit. At that time, she wondered if he treated her so kindly because he saw her as his elder sister. Yet, deep down, she secretly longed for his affection to be for her alone—not as an elder sister—because she truly cherished that bit of warmth.

But later, everything changed, he became suddenly temperamental towards her, cold, and harsh with his words. She didn’t dare to be presumptuous anymore, nor carefree. To win his favor, she even forced herself to emulate her elder sister—imitating her grace, her generosity, her aloof demeanor, her presence, her speech tone. She almost became her elder sister... but she could no longer satisfy Shi Che.

In fact, she understood why Shi Che acted this way: because Ling Chuxia was Ling Chuxia, no matter how well she imitated it, she was still a counterfeit; she could never be Ling Yunshu, never be the elder sister he deeply loved.

But hadn’t she tried hard? To cling to this position, to wait for her elder sister to return, to reset everything to the origin, she had done all that she could. Why did he have to be so cruel?

Ling Chuxia’s tears fell like pearls off a string, uncontrollable, and she shivered so violently that she couldn’t even stand. With tears clouding her vision, she looked at Shi Che, biting her lower lip hard until it turned pale. Yet, with trembling lips, she gathered the strength to speak, "I know you don’t like me... but at least for now, I am your wife."

I know you don’t like me...

Shi Che thought his words had been hurtful, but compared to Ling Chuxia’s words, what was he?

Did she know he didn’t like her?
