Chapter 301: Chapter 300: Do You Love Him? (6)
Ling Chuxia couldn’t help but knit her delicate brows, could it be that her sleeping position was uncomfortable?
Ling Chuxia gently shifted her body, turning on her side to sleep, but she still felt uneasy in this position. Subconsciously, she turned over again, changing to another pose.
However, no matter how much she tossed and turned, trying different sleeping positions, she still felt uncomfortable and couldn’t fall asleep. During her restless movements, her body unconsciously rolled towards the center of the bed. By the time she realized it, she was extremely close to Shi Che—so close that upon opening her eyes, she could see his face.
Panic fluttered in Chuxia’s heart. How did she... how could she have moved to the middle? And to be so close to Che!
She bit her teeth hard, stealthily glancing at Shi Che. Thankfully, he was sleeping quietly, seemingly unaware. She decided to slowly move back.
Just as Ling Chuxia was preparing to silently shift back to her side, Shi Che suddenly turned over, facing her direction. Then, his dark eyes opened.
Ling Chuxia’s eyes met his dark gaze. When their eyes locked, she felt a chill run down her spine as if a basin of cold water had been dumped over her head.
Shi Che’s handsome face was expressionless, his cold eyes fixated on her. Chuxia could feel the chill emanating from them, pressing straight towards her, making her inwardly groan in misery.
If only she had known she wouldn’t be able to sleep, she wouldn’t have tossed and turned. And now, look what happened—she had agitated the King of Hell.
Ling Chuxia gently bit her lower lip, her eyes flickering, as she tentatively spoke, "I’m sorry, did I disturb you?"
As if Shi Che hadn’t heard her, his gaze remained steady on Chuxia’s face. His lips parted slightly, his voice still carrying a hint of ice, "Can’t you sleep?"
This abrupt question took Chuxia by surprise. She hadn’t expected Shi Che to ask such a thing and was momentarily stunned. It took her several seconds to gather her thoughts and look at Shi Che again. She didn’t dare to lie in front of him, so she just honestly nodded, "Yeah."
"Why?"
Why, indeed? She would love to know the answer herself. She had slept well before, but tonight, for the life of her, she could not fall asleep. Every position felt wrong.
While wondering, she unconsciously lifted her eyes to glance at Shi Che’s arms. Could it be that in just a short time, she had already become accustomed to sleeping in Che’s embrace, and that was why she was now unable to sleep?
The thought had barely crossed her mind when Chuxia startled herself. How could that be possible? Was she actually longing for Shi Che’s embrace?
Impossible! She had found his embrace uncomfortable and awkward before, feeling constrained as if she were imprisoned.
Impossible!
But then again... Shi Che’s embrace was indeed warm, and his arms holding her felt strong and reassuring. In his arms, she felt an extreme sense of security...
Chuxia’s eyes gradually filled with a misty haze as she gazed at Shi Che’s chest, as if bewitched, unknowingly leaning in.
Shi Che was waiting for Chuxia’s answer, yet she remained silent, her gaze fixed on a spot, slowly becoming absent-minded. Following her gaze, he saw that she was staring blankly at his chest.
His brow furrowed slightly, a trace of doubt flitting through his eyes. He lifted his gaze, about to speak, when a soft body suddenly came close, slender arms wrapping directly around his lean waist.
