<h4>Chapter 126: Chapter 126 To Pounce or Not to Pounce (12)</h4><h4></h4>


    Wearing such a dress, Ling Chuxia only applied pasties, so when the dress slipped, she was practically in a state ofplete nudity.


    Ling Chuxia reflexively covered herself with her hands, too embarrassed to cope, but the next second, her hands paused. She had, after all, convinced Shi Che to stay tonight, wasn’t it to sleep with him... and then to get herself pregnant?


    Under the circumstances, couldn’t she just go with the flow?


    Thinking it over, Ling Chuxia mped down on her shyness, her hands slowly releasing. However, there was no movement from behind her as she had expected. Puzzled, Ling Chuxia discreetly turned her head, only to realize that Shi Che wasn’t watching her at all; after unfastening the button, he had turned and walked toward the bed.


    Ling Chuxia felt a wave of heat rushing to her forehead. So, Shi Che hadn’t had that in mind at all—it was her own wishful thinking... The embarrassment she had just felt turned entirely into awkwardness. Ling Chuxia’s face became as red as a monkey’s butt, and she was relieved that Shi Che wasn’t looking at her now; otherwise, she didn’t know how he would mock her.


    Ling Chuxia clenched her fists tightly, hastily grabbed the sleepwear resting beside her, and clumsily pulled it over her body. Then she gently patted her face to dissipate some of the warmth before picking up the dress and cing it on a chair nearby.


    She turned back around and saw that Shi Che was already sitting by the headboard, a thin MacBook resting on his knees. His dark eyes were focused on theputer screen, his slender fingers asionally tapping on the keyboard.


    Ling Chuxia observed his profile, with its beautiful lines and handsome contours. Unconsciously looking down, she could see his robust chest, the smooth V-line leading to a well-defined six-pack, and firm muscles.


    There was still a droplet of water lingering on his chest that suddenly slid down, following the V-line and disappearing under his towel, sparking endless fantasies.


    Ling Chuxia’s gaze inadvertently followed the water droplet, her eyes slightly dazed.


    Perhaps sensing her stare, Shi Che abruptly lifted his eyelids and looked in her direction, startling Ling Chuxia back to her senses; she immediately lowered her gaze, her heart pounding fiercely.


    Feeling Shi Che’s gaze on her, the slight coolness that had previously returned to her face began to build up again, bit by bit. Ling Chuxia inwardly berated herself for her earlier actions!


    Fortunately, Shi Che only nced at her before turning his gaze away. Ling Chuxia stood in ce for a while, taking several deep breaths topletely calm down, before lifting her head. Then she turned and walked towards the coffee table, picked up the milk she’d put down earlier, and walked to the bedside. She gently ced the milk on the nightstand and softly said, "You had some alcohol earlier. I’ve made you a cup of warm milk."
