CHAPTER 337: CHAPTER 336: DETECTING CLUES (10)

No, she would not let Chuxia take everything from her. Che should love her; Mrs. Shi should choose her; the position of Shi Family’s Young Madam should be hers!

She stared intensely at Ling Chuxia, her voice hoarse to the extreme as she said, "Xiaxia, have you seen the Young Master?"

Ling Chuxia shook her head with frustration, "Elder sister, I’m sorry, I didn’t find Che just now, but don’t worry, I’ll go out again and find him. I’ll definitely bring him to see you, and I’ll make sure he gives you an explanation!"

"No!"

She violently grabbed Ling Chuxia’s wrist, tightening her grip bit by bit, staring into her eyes, and spoke word by word, "Don’t go looking for Che, and don’t ask him, never ask."

"Why?" Ling Chuxia was extremely shocked and puzzled.

She lowered her gaze, a trace of coldness flashing through her eyes, yet her lips curled into a bitter smile, "Just consider it... preserving my last bit of dignity. I believe the Young Master must have his difficulties. I also don’t want him to defy Madam for me and ruin their mother-son relationship."

"But..."

"No ’buts’ anymore, Chuxia, if you really care about me, then promise me, you must marry Che and take good care of the position of Young Madam. When I return, I’m sure I can be together with the Young Master again."

If Che had loved her, she definitely would have fought for him, would have contended with Mrs. Shi, but the person Che loved was Chuxia, and fighting over him was just humiliating herself.

So, she could only wait for the right moment.

Ling Chuxia was so disliked by Mrs. Shi, she surely wouldn’t last long. Once Mrs. Shi was completely disappointed in her, she would definitely consider her.

And because of her, Ling Chuxia could absolutely not come to like Che. Che, unrequited and too proud a person, would never confess a second time. Therefore, he and Chuxia could never be!

She would not lose, she definitely would not lose. When she returned, she would reclaim everything that belonged to her.

Everything was unfolding just as she had expected, even though she was abroad. She knew the relationship between Che and Chuxia was very bad; it had even reached a deadlock at one point.

She had been waiting, waiting for Mrs. Shi to call her back. And this wait lasted three years.

But it didn’t matter. As long as she could return, she would have a chance, yet she had always overlooked one thing.

That was human emotion.

She thought Ling Chuxia would not fall in love with Che. But now, not only had Chuxia fallen for Che, she was also pregnant. She even refused to back out just like that.

However, after all her long, hard scheming, how could she willingly give up? Ling Chuxia must divorce Che, and she must become the Shi Family’s Young Madam.

The coldness in Ling Yunshu’s eyes grew deeper. Her hand clutched the blanket, almost crumpling the entire blanket, gripped tightly in her palm.

Ling Chuxia stood on the balcony, her heart full of self-reproach and guilt, which stubbornly occupied her mind. Ling Chuxia took deep breaths, but she couldn’t suppress these emotions. Her eyes were red-rimmed, tears welling up incessantly and falling drop by drop.

Wasn’t she ultimately being too selfish? For her own sake, she hurt her elder sister like this. Thankfully elder sister wasn’t seriously harmed, otherwise, what would she do?

Ling Chuxia stood on the balcony for a long time before she managed to somewhat calm her emotions. Then, she slowly turned around and walked back to her room.
