If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 683: Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu are both dead
Chapter 683 -683: Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu are both dead
“Oh…” Zhou Peitian drew out his words, “Scared that I didn’t catch Xu Chaomu? I remember, I caught a pregnant woman, eh? Haven’t seen her in five years, and this girl has gotten even prettier, oozing femininity all over. It really does make a man unable to stop wanting more.”
Zhou Peitian’s voice was not loud, but it carried an undertone of ambiguity and ridicule.
Shen Chi clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot.
“Let her answer the phone!” He repeated sternly.
“Sure, just a phone call, right? Do I, Zhou Peitian, look like someone who’d be scared of you? However, Shen Chi, you better speak to me with some respect. Otherwise, with just the two of us here, I don’t guarantee what I might do to her,” Zhou Peitian sneered coldly.
Shen Chi’s grip on the mobile phone tightened, his pupils constricted as his blood boiled.
“Zhou Peitian, dare touch her and see what happens!”
“What’s wrong, President Shen…” Zhou Peitian laughed loudly, “Right now, I’m just a loner with nothing left to lose—no wife, no children, nothing at all. Do you think I’d still be afraid of you? Don’t you forget, all of this is thanks to you, hahaha.”
Zhou Peitian laughed as he walked into Xu Chaomu’s room.
Xu Chaomu was staring blankly at the bottle of mineral water, silently calming her mind.
When the door opened, she immediately became extremely vigilant.
“Girl, Boss Shen doesn’t believe I brought you here. Say something to him.”
Zhou Peitian looked at Xu Chaomu and handed her the phone, his face allowing no room for refusal.
Xu Chaomu nervously took his phone: “Fourth… Fourth Brother…”
“Mumu!” Shen Chi shouted out anxiously, “How are you?”
“I’m fine.” Xu Chaomu lowered her head, “Don’t come here.”
Xu Chaomu wanted to say that Zhou Peitian was prepared to go down with the ship; he had explosives!
“Tell me, where are you?” Shen Chi asked coldly; how could he possibly not go.
No matter how harshly he would speak to Xu Chaomu, or how uncontrollable his emotions might be, he would never ignore her safety.
“On Meishan,” said Xu Chaomu. “It’s very high.”
Zhou Peitian, upon hearing this, panicked and snatched the phone from Xu Chaomu’s hand, raising his arm to strike her.
“You dare to say it in front of me?!” Zhou Peitian roared.
Xu Chaomu staggered backwards, avoiding the blow. Luckily, Zhou Peitian only had one arm.
“Shen Chi!” Zhou Peitian yelled into the phone, “You hear that, don’t you? Fine, since you heard, I’ll wait for you on Meishan. If you’ve got the guts, come and save this woman alone! If there’s one extra person, don’t blame me for blowing her up. You should know, I’m not scared of anything now.”
Shen Chi stayed silent. Meishan, indeed, was that very steep mountain.
“Alright, I’ll come alone,” Shen Chi said calmly.
Xu Chaomu heard him and cried out, “Shen Chi, I don’t need you to come. I don’t want to owe you anything, listen well, the child in my belly is another man’s. What are you coming for? Don’t you find it ridiculous? You’re being cuckolded, yet you still want to save that person’s wife and child. Shen Chi, you are just…”
Xu Chaomu was agitated; Shen Chi couldn’t come over, Zhou Peitian had explosives.
But before she could finish, Shen Chi hung up the phone.
Zhou Peitian laughed loudly, looking at Xu Chaomu: “You really like him that much, huh? So much that you can say the child isn’t his?”
“Zhou Peitian, my child is indeed not Shen Chi’s,” Xu Chaomu said, expressionless, looking at him.
“Oh? So that means, there’s a good chance Shen Chi won’t come now?” Zhou Peitian laughed loudly, “Your little tricks won’t fool me. Shen Chi, he won’t stay away. Just wait for your reunion with him.”
“Zhou Peitian, what do you want?”
“Wait for him to come, then you’ll know,” Zhou Peitian laughed loudly.
After speaking, he leisurely walked out of Xu Chaomu’s room and continued drinking in the courtyard by himself.
In such a summer, the mountaintop had wind, moon, and beautiful scenery. It truly was delightful.
Candles burned in the wind, sending wafts of black smoke, and soon the tips formed little candle flowers, crackling noisily.
The air was filled with a melange of scents, the freshness of water, the fragrance of flowers, and the unpleasant odor of the candles.
Zhou Peitian hummed a tune while drinking and eating.
Having lain in wait on that road for so long and finally capturing Xu Chaomu was indeed something to celebrate.
He realized living on with a large sum of money wouldn’t be too bad either.
With this thought, he suddenly sent Shen Chi another text message: Bring five million in cash.
Originally, he didn’t have such cravings; after all, he had nowhere left to run in C City.
But suddenly, he felt that life with money was still worth living. What if both Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu died? Wouldn’t he then make a fortune?
Eventually, he could leave C City with the money, and no one would chase after him. Wouldn’t he be able to live a carefree life?
At this moment, he was quite pleased with his own idea.
As he hummed outside, Xu Chaomu examined the inside of the room with a flashlight.
The room had a window, not large but very old. Alone, she could definitely climb out.
But she knew that outside her room, everything was rigged with explosives. If Zhou Peitian discovered her climbing out the window, he might just shoot her on the spot.
She was somewhat scared, she wouldn’t climb out unless it was absolutely necessary.

And even if she did make it out, she would need the strength to run down the mountain.
Zhou Peitian was utterly ruthless; he was capable of anything. Right now, her priority was not to provoke him.
Looking around the room, this was the only window through which she could escape.
She hadn’t taken a good look when she first entered the room; she didn’t know what the layout outside was like.
With this in mind, she knocked on the door: “I need to use the bathroom!”
Zhou Peitian, who was drinking and eating, was a bit annoyed when he heard Xu Chaomu’s voice: “Open the door yourself and turn left!”
“Oh.”
Xu Chaomu opened the door and cautiously turned left, using the flashlight to illuminate the ground.
The area outside the room was indeed packed with explosives, dozens of packages that petrified her to the point where she could barely take a step.
If all these explosives were lit, the power would be enormous.
By then, it likely wouldn’t just be people that would be destroyed—the entire mountaintop might crumble.
She carefully avoided the explosives and made her way to the bathroom.
Using the flashlight, she hadn’t expected to find a water pipe in the bathroom that was connected to the spring water from the mountain.
A lightbulb went on—yes, she could douse the explosives with water!
Once soaked, the explosives would be rendered ineffective!
But, undertaking such an act would undoubtedly involve huge risk. If Zhou Peitian found out, she’d be dead on the spot.
She pondered in the bathroom, thinking about when to water the explosives, and how to do it…
