Chapter 184 - 183: Investigate This Medicine (3)
Is this woman devoid of any sense of pain?
Shi Che’s dark pupils slightly narrowed as he immediately threw back the covers and got out of bed. He carelessly donned a robe and strode quickly to Ling Chuxia’s back, bent slightly at the waist, grasped Ling Chuxia’s arm, and was about to pull her up, "What are you doing? Stop picking them up!"
Her head had already bumped into something, yet she was still preoccupied with picking up those damned pills.
Ling Chuxia was unwilling to stand up. Her hands kept moving swiftly to pick them up. Although she tried to maintain her composure, the tremble in her voice betrayed her, "I’ll be done soon."
Shi Che’s frown deepened, and his voice took on a hint of annoyance, "What are you still picking up for? Are we so short on money we can’t afford to buy more medicine?"
Ling Chuxia was at a loss for words. She pursed her lips and tried to pick up all the scattered pills on the floor as quickly as possible, otherwise... if Shi Che discovered something amiss, she truly couldn’t imagine the consequences.
Shi Che was gradually losing patience. His grip on Ling Chuxia’s arm tightened, and with a little force, he lifted her straight up. Ling Chuxia dared not struggle, but she stretched out her arms forcefully. In the last second as Shi Che pulled her up, she managed to pick up the last pill and put it into the medicine box.
Shi Che really didn’t understand why she was so persistent about picking up that pill. It had fallen to the ground, could it still be eaten?
Shi Che’s dark eyes coldly stared at the medicine box that Ling Chuxia clutched tightly in her hand, as if afraid it would be snatched away. His gaze grew even more intense. He lifted his hand and unceremoniously poked her head at the spot where it had been hit.
