Chapter 81: Chapter 81: Showing Off Love, Dying Fast (9)

She stared as bright red blood spilled from her fingertip, and before she could even react, Shi Che had already squatted in front of her, taken her hand in his without any disgust, and placed it directly into his mouth.

After the bleeding stopped, he released her hand and scolded her with furrowed brows. He said, "Ling Chuxia, are you an idiot? You cut yourself just cleaning up some broken pieces! Did you bring your brain with you? What were you even thinking!"

At that moment, he had a stern face, his handsome features displaying displeasure, his dark brown eyes coldly fixed on her, and his tone was frightening.

Ling Chuxia had already been upset from cutting her hand, and with Shi Che shouting at her like that, tears immediately surged forth. At that time, she was still somewhat afraid of Shi Che and didn’t dare to cry out loud. Her tears just spun around in her eyes, pitifully replying, "I know I’m clumsy; I’ve been clumsy since I was little..."

Shi Che originally maintained a stern face, but the moment he saw her tears, a hint of helplessness colored his eyes. He tried desperately to restrain himself, but in the end, he couldn’t help but lift her into his arms and awkwardly comfort her, "Alright, stop crying. Just be more careful in the future."

When someone feels like crying, if no one comforts them, they might be able to hold back, but once comforted, their tears become unstoppable.

Naturally, Ling Chuxia was like this too. If Shi Che had continued to scold her with a stern face, she would never dare to cry out loud. But Shi Che eventually said to stop crying, and though his voice was gruff, it also carried a comforting tone. Her tears fell like pearls off a broken string, raining down relentlessly, leaving Shi Che completely at a loss.

At that time, Shi Che held her tightly for an entire afternoon. He didn’t even go to the office, just quietly accompanying her as she cried.

Later, Shi Che never let her clean up the dishes again. After each meal, he automatically and conscientiously took care of the dishes, not allowing her to touch them.

Now, Ling Chuxia couldn’t imagine why she had been so melodramatic back then. But looking back, such melodrama was also a result of Shi Che’s pampering. Eventually, when Shi Che harshly scolded her and mocked her, she was heartbroken for a long time. Consequently, she no longer dared to act freely in front of him, no longer dared to shed tears freely, and never again dared to show her grievances.

Ling Chuxia looked at her finger, the bright red blood dripping out unrestrained and falling to the floor, forming a small puddle of blood.

She suddenly snapped back to her senses, stood up abruptly, and intended to grab the first aid kit to dress the wound. Maybe it was because she had been squatting for too long, or perhaps because of her sudden movement, she felt a bit dizzy and unintentionally took a step backwards. If not for her timely grab at the edge of the table, she might have tumbled right into the shards.

Ling Chuxia stood still for a while to steady herself before walking towards the storage cabinet.

She took the first aid kit out from the cabinet, walked to the living room sofa, sat down, opened the kit, took out the antiseptic solution, and poured it over her injured finger.
