If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1353: How Could I Possibly Cheat?

"I knew you would bully me," protested Xu Chaomu.

"How am I bullying you again? I can’t even begin to express how much I adore you."

Xu Chaomu admitted that every time Shen Chi sweet-talked her, she found it cheesy, but... she was still very much enjoying it.

Right then, a fragrant pan-seared halibut was served. Xu Chaomu picked up a piece with her chopsticks and fed it into his mouth.

Only then did Shen Chi stop teasing her. He smiled slightly, his eyes curving into two crescent moons. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Xu Chaomu also giggled, looking down from the building more than twenty floors high at the night scene of the entire C City. The brilliance of lights, cars like flowing water and horses in a dragon dance, bustled with extraordinary liveliness.

She really liked this kind of excitement, and furthermore... there was always someone by her side, accompanying her to watch these myriad sceneries.

...

During the days of Xu Chaomu’s pregnancy, Shen Chi noticeably cut down on his work, rarely going out for social engagements, and would accompany Xu Chaomu whenever he had the time.

He knew there were many regrets Xu Chaomu had when giving birth to Xiaobao, and this time, he was going to try his best to make up for all her regrets.

In her spare time, Xu Chaomu started to get busy with her workshop matters, and sometimes Lou Yanli would come to the Shen Family home.

However, whenever Lou Yanli came over, no matter the time, Shen Chi would appear right on cue.

One day, after Lou Yanli left the Shen Family home, Xu Chaomu looked at the man sitting on the sofa drinking coffee and said, "Shen Chi, so you just happen to have the day off again today?"

"Yeah, any complaints?"

"Yes, I do have a complaint!" Xu Chaomu huffed, "Every time Lou Yanli comes over, you just happen to be off work or you come home to grab something. Are you doing this on purpose?"

"Yes, on purpose," he said nonchalantly.

Xu Chaomu walked over, snatched the magazine from his hand, and huffed, "No more reading! Are you jealous?"

"Do I need to be jealous?" Shen Chi narrowed his eyes, putting down his coffee cup.

"Stubbornly in denial," Xu Chaomu glanced at him, "You’re always guarding against other men as if they were thieves. Haven’t I told you, Lou Yanli has a girlfriend. Are you not confident in yourself? Do you think you’re getting old? Afraid that you can’t keep me?"

Shen Chi stretched out his hand, gave a tug, pulling her into his embrace, exuding a dangerous aura.

"Do you think I’m old?" Shen Chi looked at her.

Xu Chaomu realized she had said something wrong and quickly laughed, "No, no, no, husband, you are still very young, it’s me who’s getting old."

"No matter whether you’re old or not, you’re still the one I like," Shen Chi looked at her, his eyes filled with deep affection.

Xu Chaomu felt tingles all over her body, wondering if they might declare their love without any disagreement. When it came to sweet talk, she really couldn’t stand against him.

"Then you’re not allowed to meddle in my affairs anymore. We already have two children, how could I possibly have an affair?" Xu Chaomu said.

"Not meddling in your affairs... that’s impossible," Shen Chi lowered his head to look at her.

"..." Xu Chaomu stretched out her hand and poked him.

Lou Yanli had been helping Xu Chaomu with the early stages of setting up her workshop, which he had been in charge of at first, but it didn’t take long before Shen Chi had a talk with him.

"Master Luo must be quite busy, right? I’ve heard your honored father plans to hand over the family company to you," Shen Chi said indifferently.

Lou Yanli laughed, "CEO Shen is well-informed, it is so. It just so happens that my girlfriend also wants to invite me abroad to give her a hand."

Where could Lou Yanli be unaware of Shen Chi’s intentions? From the first time he met Shen Chi, Shen Chi had always been very domineering towards Xu Chaomu.

So he simply went with the flow and played along with Shen Chi’s plan.

"Mr. Luo should focus more on his own company." Shen Chi said.

"You’re right, Mr. Shen. And for Mrs. Shen’s affairs, we still need to trouble you."

"Oh? My wife’s affairs? It’s fine, I’ll just help out."

"That’s good, I was worried I might not handle it well, but with you, Mr. Shen, there’s nothing to worry about." Lou Yanli said, "I will have someone send over the documents this afternoon."

"Mhm." Shen Chi’s fingers gently tapped on the desk.

And so, Xu Chaomu’s studio was all handed over to Shen Chi.

Xu Chaomu didn’t know yet. Some time later, when she heard that Lou Yanli had gone abroad, she urgently called him, only to find out that Shen Chi had taken over the tasks of her studio. Frustrated, Xu Chaomu went directly to Shen Chi’s office.

"Shen Chi, didn’t we agree that you wouldn’t interfere with my studio?" Xu Chaomu said angrily.

Shen Chi, however, looked as calm as a breeze: "I didn’t do much."

"Why are you so annoying? I just want to do something by myself, without your involvement."

Xu Chaomu didn’t want to be labeled everywhere with Shen Chi’s name; she truly wanted to see what she was capable of.

"Do we still need to distinguish between you and me? Must you draw such a clear line with your husband?"

"I don’t want your help in everything. It makes others think I rely on you," Xu Chaomu said discontentedly.

Shen Chi stood up from his chair and walked over to her, smiling: "No matter what you do, they will think you’re relying on me."

"Shen Chi!" Xu Chaomu was furious.

"What’s the problem? They are just jealous of you," Shen Chi chuckled, "You have an outstanding husband. They don’t, so of course, they’re jealous of you."

"I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Don’t come home tonight," Xu Chaomu said, angry. She just wanted to run her own studio and design things she liked.

"Shush, don’t make a scene, we’re in the office."

"Don’t interfere anymore, or I’ll really get mad," Xu Chaomu said with a hint of blush on her face.

"Don’t you want to meet the internationally renowned designer? I can help you make contact, it would be much more efficient," Shen Chi said, "There are many procedures that are very complicated. Using your husband’s name can also make things much more efficient."

"I don’t need it!"

"Fine, then do it yourself," Shen Chi compromised.

Only then did Xu Chaomu pout and stopped being mad at him.

However, how could Shen Chi truly let her do it on her own? If she really wanted to depend on herself, she probably couldn’t even get a permit.

Behind the scenes, Shen Chi still had his assistant help her by greeting the various departments and designers, he just didn’t tell Xu Chaomu.

No matter what, as long as she was happy, Shen Chi could afford the expenses of a studio.

Xu Chaomu was still very dedicated, spending a lot of time each day in her studio. But as her pregnancy progressed, the butler watched over her every day, not allowing her to overexert herself.

Xiaobao was also well-behaved, knowing that his mother was pregnant, he neither cried nor made a fuss. During the day, he learned painting with a teacher; at night, he would cling to his father.

It wasn’t long before Mo Shuifu returned.

Upon hearing the news, Xu Chaomu went to the hospital immediately.

Shen Shihan was arranged in the Luo Family Medical Group. He lay calmly on the hospital bed, with Mo Shuifu tucking the blanket around him.

Mo Shuifu’s child was bigger than Xu Chaomu’s, and she seemed a bit less mobile.
