Chapter 302: Chapter 301: Do You Love Him? (7)

In the moment her delicate hands wrapped around his waist, Shi Che’s entire body suddenly stiffened, the light in his eyes rapidly solidified, and he unconsciously lowered his gaze to look at the woman in his arms.

As Chuxia leaned into Shi Che’s embrace, she felt his body temperature, slightly feverish, sobering her up instantly. Chuxia’s eyes widened in shock as she looked at the chest that was so close before her, stupefied.

Oh God, what had she just done? Had she actually... actually approached him on her own and hugged Shi Che? Was she possessed just now?

Chuxia’s heart clenched bit by bit, feeling doomed. How was she supposed to extricate herself from this situation now? Shi Che was already in a bad mood, and now... if she touched him without his consent, would he throw her off the bed? With this thought, Chuxia’s hands started to shake uncontrollably.

Chuxia reflexively tried to pull away from Shi Che’s embrace, but just as she started moving backwards, a warm, large hand pressed against her lower back. With a slight force, Chuxia was pulled back into Shi Che’s embrace.

Chuxia looked up in astonishment once more, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She had thought Shi Che would be angry, would erupt in rage, but she had never imagined that he would hug her back. She dazedly lifted her gaze and in that moment, fell into the depths of Shi Che’s dark eyes.

His dark eyes were profound, the light within them deep and mysterious, yet not as inscrutable as before. Instead, they seemed to exude warmth, one glance and it felt like it sank into the heart.

Chuxia just stared blankly, forgetting to react for a moment.

Shi Che watched her, his lips slightly curling up, a fleeting smile crossing his handsome face that was hard to notice.

He asked her why she couldn’t sleep, she didn’t say anything, but instead, suddenly snuggled into his embrace and hugged him.

Did she mean that she could only fall asleep by hugging him?

Shi Che knew that might not be Chuxia’s intention, but... they had been married for so long, and Chuxia had hardly ever initiated closeness with him, just this once... even if he didn’t know why she suddenly came to hug him, his heart completely softened because of her embrace, and even the anger he had felt before dissipated without a trace.

She might not know, but in his heart, her small and unintentional actions had become a sweet release for him.

Shi Che involuntarily tightened his arms around her, his lips parting slightly, his voice husky, "Can you sleep now?"

Still lost in the gentle light of Shi Che’s eyes, Chuxia didn’t come to her senses and just instinctively nodded in response to his words.

Shi Che’s eyes grew even softer, his palm gently stroking her long hair, his voice growing tenderer, "Sleep then."

As she lay in Shi Che’s arms, feeling his warm body temperature and his strong arms, she, who could not seem to settle into sleep no matter what just moments before, began to sink into drowsiness, her eyelids drooping slowly.

Shi Che glanced down at Chuxia and suddenly thought of something, speaking softly, "You don’t need to worry about the divorce."

Just when Chuxia was about to close her eyes and drift off, Shi Che’s sudden remark jolted her back to alertness; she abruptly lifted her head, her dark eyes looking into Shi Che’s.

What did Shi Che mean by that? What did he mean by saying she didn’t need to worry about it?
