Chapter 609: Chapter 609

Shi Che often practiced Muay Thai, and he knew exactly where to hit on the body to cause excruciating pain without being lethal. His fists, hard as iron, left President Hong unable to even cry out in pain after a few blows.

Shi Che glanced sideways at him, loosened his grip, and President Hong’s corpulent body slid down the wall, powerless.

Shi Che casually shook his hands and looked down at President Hong with disdain, his voice intense with every word, "Next time, if you dare touch my wife, I’ll take your life!" The source of this content ɪs novèlfire.net

Shi Che turned and walked back to the bedside. Even though he had been harsh and full of ferocity moments before, his movements became incredibly gentle as he bent down to pick up Ling Chuxia. It was as if an ounce more of force would harm her.

Holding Ling Chuxia in his arms, Shi Che disregarded the stares of the attendants, holding her tightly as he walked out of the clubhouse.

Xiao Li was startled when he saw Shi Che carrying the unconscious Ling Chuxia. He hurriedly got out of the car, opened the back door, and Shi Che slid into the car with Ling Chuxia. Xiao Li closed the door and quickly returned to the driver’s seat.

He glanced sideways at Shi Che and asked, "President Shi, where to?"

With a firm grip, Shi Che held Ling Chuxia close to his chest. He gently brushed her stray hair behind her ear with his slender fingers before replying, "To the hospital."

After the doctor’s examination, it was confirmed that Ling Chuxia was not in any serious danger. She had simply been asleep due to the combined effects of alcohol and drugs and would naturally wake up once the drugs wore off.

Shi Che finally relaxed, though his handsome face showed no excess emotion—just a slight nod and a murmured, "Thank you."

The doctor nodded, packed his things, and left. A nurse gently closed the door, and suddenly, the hospital room was enveloped in silence.

Shi Che stood still, gazing at Ling Chuxia on the bed. Her sleeping face was peaceful and beautiful, stirring a deep sense of relief in his heart.

If he hadn’t decisively come for Chuxia today, now... she might have...

Thinking this, Shi Che’s hands, hanging by his sides, involuntarily clenched again, wishing he could go back and give that audacious swine another beating.

Thankfully, she was alright. Nothing mattered more than those five words.

Even now, Shi Che felt as if he were floating. He drifted over to Chuxia’s bedside and sat down. His cool hand slowly held hers.

His hand felt chill, but Ling Chuxia’s was warm. The warmth from her hands gradually transferred to his, soothing his fears and his bloodlust.

Shi Che quietly held Ling Chuxia’s hand. The turmoil in his eyes gradually subsided as he gently pulled her hand closer and left a soft kiss on the back of it.

Suddenly, Shi Che felt a spontaneous surge of gratitude. If Chuxia weren’t unconscious now, he wouldn’t have been able to get so close to her so quickly, to touch her again, to be by her side.

Before she woke up, he could stay right here by her side...

Shi Che’s lips slowly curled into a smile, his hand reaching out to gently touch her cheek when suddenly, Ling Chuxia’s cellphone rang.

Shi Che’s brows furrowed lightly, his gaze involuntarily shifting towards her handbag.
