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.
