Ling Chuxia nestled in Shi Che's embrace, her head tilted slightly upward, looking at him. From her angle, she
could see the smooth line of Shi Che's jaw, the slight bulge of his Adam's apple, and his clean collarbone.
She still remembered when they were younger, how he held her just like this, walking through the school’s long
corridors, past the lush trees, and along the quiet paths.
Back then, he wore white clothes, and when a soft breeze blew, it would billow his shirt. She was carried in his
arms like that, as if all her fears could disappear.
But now, this embrace must be the last, right?
After this, he would never hold her again, and she could no longer nestle in his arms.
Ling Chuxia tilted her head slightly, pressing her forehead against Shi Che’s chest, slowly closing her eyes as
tears glistened and fell from the corners.
When the car returned to the villa, Ling Chuxia had already fallen asleep against the seat back. Shi Che turned
off the engine, angled his head slightly, and looked at her with his dark eyes.
Her eyes were gently closed; long, thick lashes cast a small shadow beneath her eye sockets, with a trace of
pallor still on her cheeks. She was supposed to be sleeping against the back of the seat, but her body was still
curled up instinctively.

Ling Chuxia’s sleeping posture had always matched her straightforward personality. He remembered that when
they first got married, she was quite reserved before she fell into deep sleep. But once she did, her wilful and
dominant sleeping style would show without fail.
No matter how large the bed was, she could always take it over entirely by herself. He was often hit, kicked, or
even kicked out of the bed by her. Then the next day, she could open those big eyes of hers and look at him
innocently, as if nothing had happened, leaving him unable to vent his frustrations. In the end, he simply held
her tight every night, so she couldn’t break free and kick him out of the bed anymore.
But later on, her sleeping posture becmore regulated, more peaceful. He no longer needed to hold her
tightly, to restrain her limbs, for she could sleep soundly on her own. On that large bed, she occupied only a very
small corner, her body curled up, back turned to him, like a little animal scared of getting hurt, wrapping herself
in a hard shell in an attempt to protect herself.
Those nights, he would watch her back, suffering from insomnia, headaches, anxiety, irritation, yet helpless to
do anything about it.
When he found her diary, his heart nearly broke. The girl he deeply loved did not truly love him. In fact, she
stayed by his side just for her elder sister, for the sake of being the Young Madam.
Since then, every tshe cclose to him, every tshe smiled at him, showed him gentleness, or cared
for him, the thought would uncontrollably surface in his mind: What were her smiles, her gentleness, her care
really for? For her elder sister? For a position? For Mrs. Shi?
In any case... it was never for him.
He couldn't resist her advances, but he also couldn't accept her motives.
The deeper the love, the greater the
resentment, the resgntment. CWHy
