Chapter 190 - 189: Investigate This Medicine (9)
Shi Che was actually dining with a woman!
She had been by his side for so long, yet apart from group meals, he had never dined alone with her, had he? So... was Shi Che’s attitude toward her now because there was someone new?
Zheng Rourou really wanted to confront him and clear things up at that moment, but when she saw Shi Che’s gloomy face, she couldn’t help but shrink back. Her eyes involuntarily swept towards Ling Chuxia, wanting to see clearly what this new favorite looked like, but Chuxia kept her head down, and Rourou clenched her fists tightly, not daring to provoke Che. In the end, she ran away crying.
With Zheng Rourou gone, the atmosphere quieted down, becoming eerily silent. Ling Chuxia could clearly feel that Shi Che was in a foul mood. Although Chuxia didn’t know what had happened between Shi Che and Zheng Rourou, she felt somewhat depressed herself. Shi Che had finally taken her out for a meal, which started with her feeling alright, but then this incident happened.
Ling Chuxia didn’t know what to say, but it didn’t seem right to let the tension continue. She took a deep breath and summoned the courage to lift her hand, then took her chopsticks and picked up a dish, placing it in Shi Che’s bowl, whispering, "Eat up."
Ling Chuxia’s indifference had already angered Shi Che enough. Now, with Zheng Rourou gone, and Chuxia still acting as if nothing had happened, encouraging him to eat, his rage was uncontrollable. He picked up his chopsticks and threw the dish Chuxia had placed in his bowl back onto hers, blurting out angrily, "I won’t eat!"
She actually felt like eating!
Seeing another woman fawning over her husband, she did not get angry, did not rage, didn’t even ask a single question, and yet she was still able to eat so properly!
