65 Wish She Died Early (2/2)

”That's enough, Xia Ruoxin. I don't want to hear you saying something like that again. I never said I wanted you to die early.” Chu Lui's hands on her shoulders were still tight and forceful.

His eyes were deep. Xia Ruoxin smiled slightly, a bitter tear falling from the corner of her eye. Was that not the case? Was there anyone who cared about her life? Even her mother wished for her early death. Would this man who hated her care?

Then, she felt herself being reeled into an extremely warm embrace. She shut her eyes gently. So such a cold man could be so warm, too.

”I never wanted for you to die early. Regardless of whether I admit it or not—and whether you're willing or not, you are still my wife. Xia Ruoxin, I realized that while hating you, I have started to care for you. Do you understand what this means, Xia Ruoxin?”

Chu Lui's hands wound tightly around her waist and felt her jump lightly in his arms. His lips curled up into a smile at this moment. He never wanted her to die early—never ever—for what he wanted was…

For her to stay…

In a living hell.

Under the flashing light, the man's features seemed colder and more callous. Perhaps this was his true nature.

Xia Ruoxin hugged his clothes tightly and took a deep breath of the faint tobacco scent on him. She felt like her heart, which shattered into pieces, was slowly growing back together and healing again.

”Chu Lui…” She called his name, her throat closing up. Could she think of it as him starting to fall for her, even just a little? Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
