Chapter 432: Chapter 432

Ling Chuxia was startled and instinctively wanted to hide, but it was already too late. The door was pushed open, and the person outside suddenly appeared before her eyes.

The man stood tall and slender at the doorway, backlit by the light. As Ling Chuxia looked over, he seemed to be framed within a halo, giving him an ethereal feel.

Ling Chuxia’s eyes widened uncontrollably. Was she... was she so heartbroken that she was seeing illusions? How... how could Shi Che be here? Wasn’t he supposed to be at the company?

When Shi Che saw Ling Chuxia, his dark pupils also constricted slightly. Why was Ling Chuxia here? Shouldn’t she be in the hospital?

Both of them silently gazed at each other for a while, until Shi Che recovered first. His dark eyes fixed intently on Ling Chuxia, the surprise in his eyes slightly abated, and he spoke with his usual indifference, "Aren’t you supposed to be in the hospital?"

As his words entered her ears, they broke the illusion, and Ling Chuxia instantly came back to her senses. Her heart skipped a beat, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

She just wanted to come back to say a proper goodbye. Why had Shi Che also returned... She had barely managed to avoid him this morning, and now to run into him face-to-face, what was she supposed to do now?

Ling Chuxia’s dark eyes moved helplessly, she bit her lower lip hard, her mind went blank, not knowing how to answer, and she replied unconsciously, "I... I’m fine now, so I... I came back to pack some things."

She had already divorced Shi Che, so naturally, she could no longer stay here.

Shi Che’s eyebrows furrowed deeply. Was she packing her belongings to leave? Was she so eager to leave? His hand clenched into a fist involuntarily, and his handsome face inadvertently darkened.

After Ling Chuxia spoke those words, it was as if she found her reason, and she nodded vigorously, repeating, "Yes, I came back to pack my things... I, I’ll leave immediately after I’m done... don’t worry."

Ling Chuxia murmured this, not daring to look at Shi Che, she immediately turned and hurried towards the wardrobe.

Shi Che’s dark eyes stared blankly at her, watching her walk to the wardrobe, watching her tiptoe to take down the suitcase from above the wardrobe, watching her open the wardrobe, and swiftly stuffing her clothes into the suitcase. Her actions were rapid, almost without looking, as if she just wanted to finish packing and leave this place, leave him...

In her heart, was there really... no attachment at all? Was this marriage, these three years, to her, really just shackles she was desperate to break free from?

Then why... did she care about the necklace he gave her, why, that night, was she so tender? And why, during his dangerous moments, did she cry in sorrow?

On the day he found out she was pregnant, he threw away the necklace he had retrieved in anger and despair. Yet later... he went looking for it again. That night, after leaving her hospital room, he found himself unconsciously walking to the entrance of the hospital and began looking for that necklace.

In fact, he didn’t have much hope, after all, it had been many days, and he had thrown it from such a high building, not knowing where it had gone, but... he found it in a bush.
