Shi Che walked into the bedroom just in time to see Ling Chuxia in that state. His gaze slightly darkened as he stepped forward, grabbed her wrist, and moved her hand away from her ear, saying in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"
Ling Chuxia hadn't expected Shi Che to suddenly appear. She was stunned for a moment before she could react, instinctively breaking free from Shi Che's grasp and even stepping back to create distance between them.
Shi Che watched as his hand was suddenly shaken off, his dark eyes narrowing sharply as he stared directly at Ling Chuxia, a hint of surprise and darkness in his eyes.
Feeling Shi Che's piercing gaze, Ling Chuxia suddenly realized what was happening, and her heart trembled fiercely. She bit her lower lip and slowly managed to squeeze out an apology, "I'm sorry."
