Ling Chuxia hadn't expected Shi Che to return so abruptly. At the sight of him, she froze for a moment, her grip on the medicine box failed, and it dropped to the floor.
Startled, Ling Chuxia felt her heart ready to leap out of her chest. Reflexively, she wanted to bend down to pick it up, but Shi Che's dark gaze had already shifted coolly toward her. Chuxia's eyes hardened, and her movement abruptly stiffened. To squat down and pick up the medicine box would be too obvious, especially since she hadn't anticipated his early return and hadn't taken any measures to hide it. The blatantly obvious vitamin box would surely arouse suspicion if seen.
