Chapter 493: Chapter 493
Ling Yunshu hadn’t finished speaking when Shi Che’s voice rang out, cool and distant, "You’re a hundred, no, ten thousand times better than Chuxia?"
He repeated Ling Yunshu’s words, the coldness in his eyes slowly rising, "But in my eyes, you’re not even worth a single hair of Chuxia’s." He paused, then shook his head, "No, it’s not right to compare you to Chuxia, because you’re not worthy."
After speaking, Shi Che turned and entered the bathroom. When he came out, he had regained his neatly dressed and elegant demeanor, completely void of the previous dispirited appearance. He stepped over the mess on the floor, about to leave the bedroom, but as he was about to step out, he paused. Without turning to look at Ling Yunshu, who still stood there dumbly, he spoke coldly, "Considering you are Chuxia’s elder sister, get lost, and never let me see you again."
With his words falling, Shi Che stepped without hesitation into the bedroom.
All strength left Ling Yunshu’s body at that instant, unable to support herself, she collapsed.
Considering you are Chuxia’s elder sister...
Ling Yunshu murmured these words, tears spilling over, her hands slowly clenched tighter and tighter. She had thought that if she just tried hard enough, if she just drove Ling Chuxia away, she could be close to Shi Che, she could stay by his side. But now, she realized she was wrong. With or without Chuxia, he would never love her, would he?
No... it’s not like that, it’s not! Originally, she should have never pleaded with Mrs. Shi to bring Chuxia back to the Shi Family too. If Chuxia had never come to the Shi Family, Shi Che would have never met her, and he wouldn’t have fallen in love with her. Then the person Shi Che would love, would still be her!
It’s all Ling Chuxia’s fault, all her fault!
Why, when she had been so good to her, did she have to steal the man she loved! Ling Chuxia, I hate you! I hate you!
Shi Che went downstairs, still feeling the stabbing pain in his head, the combination of a hangover and headache was truly unbearable.
He frowned slightly, lifted his hand, and rubbed his brow forcefully. Then, he walked towards the kitchen, opened the fridge, and took out a bottle of water, twisting off the cap to take a sip.
The ice water hit his throat, the chill stimulating his brain, and Shi Che closed his eyes, feeling considerably more awake. However, his mind involuntarily conjured up scene after blurry scene.
Every scene featured Ling Chuxia, and every one of them was so vivid, as though they had truly happened. But... how could that be possible?
Shi Che’s hand suddenly clenched the bottle, the veins on the back of his hand subtly bulging.
The ringtone of his phone suddenly went off, Shi Che slowly released his grip, took out the phone from his pocket, glanced at the screen, it was Sister Hua calling. His dark eyes steadied, his fingers trembling slightly as he swiped to answer.
Just as the connection was made, Sister Hua’s uncontrollable excitement and joyous voice came through, "Young Master, Madam has awakened!"
Shi Che’s expression flickered with momentary confusion, almost unable to react. But quickly, he replied, "I’ll come over immediately."
After hanging up, Shi Che immediately made another call to Old Zhu, then strode out the door.
The car hadn’t arrived yet, Shi Che stood at the doorway, inadvertently glancing up to see a black Audi slowly driving away, getting further and further.
Shi Che’s dark eyes squinted slightly, the fleeting figure in the passenger seat seemed familiar...
