If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1283: Keep It a Secret for Us First

Wen Zhiyuan didn’t say anything, just silently furrowed his brow.

Shen Chi walked in front, this wasn’t his first time coming to the Luo Family’s paternity test center.

From behind, Wen Zhiyuan quietly asked, "What’s going on?"

Xu Chaomu made a "shushing" gesture and indicated with her eyes that she would explain to him later.

Wen Zhiyuan quickly arranged for them a doctor to conduct the paternity test; the doctor was obviously surprised, after all, Xu ChaoMu had just recently come in for a paternity test.

Xiaobao became scared upon seeing the doctor in a white coat, and he cried out in fear when the syringe was extended toward him.

"Wuwu... No..." Xiaobao hid in Xu Chaomu’s arms, "It hurts, baby is afraid of pain..."

Wen Zhiyuan chuckled, finding the little guy quite cute, and somewhat resembling Xu Chaomu.

"Baby isn’t afraid of pain, baby is good," Xu Chaomu hastened to comfort him.

Shen Chi kept a stern face: "What hurts, come here!"

"..." Xu Chaomu’s face was full of black lines, that tone was just like when he reprimanded her as a child.

Just as Shen Chi said, if Xiaobao wasn’t his biological child, he might be gentler, but since he is, Xiaobao shouldn’t blame him for not being polite.

Xiaobao, frightened by Shen Chi, paused for a moment, but soon cried even louder: "It hurts, don’t want, Mommy go home, Daddy bad..."

"Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid," Xu Chaomu comforted him.

But Shen Chi yanked Xiaobao over, rolled up his sleeve, and signalled the doctor with his eyes.

The doctor understood and took a blood sample from Xiaobao.

Xiaobao cried miserably, why did every person in a white coat have to be so unpleasant, he’s been subjected to blood draws more than once already...

"Baby hurts..." Xiaobao cried and fussed, unwilling to calm down.

"What hurts, be quiet!" Shen Chi yelled at him.

Xiaobao stared at Shen Chi, bit his finger, and fell silent.

Wen Zhiyuan quietly laughed, suddenly feeling a bit envious of Shen Chi.

After the sampling was done, Wen Zhiyuan took them to the rest area. Xu Chaomu had wanted to talk to Wen Zhiyuan, but Xiaobao was clinging to her and refused to go to Shen Chi.

Xiaobao was particularly hostile towards Shen Chi today because he had yelled at him.

In fact, Shen Chi was also holding back his temper, because Xiaobao had been calling him "Uncle Four" in the car, more than just once.

Wen Zhiyuan brought some snacks for Xiaobao, and only then did Xiaobao stop holding a grudge against Shen Chi and quietly went to the sofa to eat.

After chatting for a while, Wen Zhiyuan found out that it was Xu Chaomu who had brought Shen Chi and Xiaobao for paternity testing, and Shen Chi didn’t seem to care.

Xu Chaomu also recounted the twists and turns to Wen Zhiyuan, who was surprised – so many coincidences had happened, he really didn’t know if someone had done it on purpose or if it was fate.

"Dr. Wen, please keep this matter confidential for us," Xu Chaomu instructed.

Wen Zhiyuan nodded: "I know that, and not only me but our hospital won’t disclose a word either."

"Thank you."

While they were talking, Xiaobao had already eaten many of Wen Zhiyuan’s snacks.

After eating for a while, he lost interest and, grabbing Xu Chaomu’s hand, wanted her to play with him.

The little guy, being small and with a big temper, was truly ignoring Shen Chi because he had been stern with him, and only stuck close to Xu Chaomu.

"Mommy, go out to play..."

"It’s cold outside, isn’t it better if we play here?" Xu Chaomu squatted down, patiently buttoning his clothes and cleaning his mouth.

"I want to go out to play..." the little guy spoke in a milky voice.

Xu Chaomu looked helplessly at Shen Chi and, holding his hand, said to Shen Chi, "I’ll take him out for a walk."

Shen Chi handed her his scarf: "Hmm, tie it on him, don’t let him catch a cold."

"Okay." Xu Chaomu took it and tied the scarf, still warm from Shen Chi’s body heat, around Xiaobao’s neck. It was, after all, woven by her own hands, and Shen Chi treasured it, wearing it whenever he had the chance.

Xiaobao was still holding a grudge against Shen Chi, so when Xu Chaomu tied it on, he refused to accept it.

Xu Chaomu glared at him twice, and he obediently complied.

Wen Zhiyuan, standing to the side, watched them with a warm smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

Xu Chaomu had truly changed a lot and was nothing like the young girl he had met six years ago.

Now, Xu Chaomu knew how to care for others, managed to keep her temper in check, and was not as stubborn as before.

The little guy was really adorable, with his fair and tender skin.

Wen Zhiyuan couldn’t help but feel tense every time he thought of the little guy having gone through life-and-death situations, some of which he had witnessed.

Fortunately, the little guy was now safe and sound.

As Xu Chaomu was taking the little guy to the door, Xiaobao purposely turned his head to look at Wen Zhiyuan: "Goodbye, Uncle Wen."

After saying that, he grabbed Xu Chaomu’s hand and walked towards the outside of the lounge, not even glancing at his father.

Shen Chi was really upset, wishing he could go over and spank him a few times.

Wen Zhiyuan laughed loudly: "Your son is really just like you."

"In what way?"

"The way of infuriating people without paying for their life." Wen Zhiyuan said deliberately, "Before, you had Xu Chaomu to keep you down, and in the future, you’ll have this little guy. Even Shen the Fourth Master has times when he’s under someone’s thumb."

"You’re really rejoicing in my misfortune!"

"Of course." Wen Zhiyuan laughed heartily.

He too had been bullied by Shen Chi, so now seeing Shen Chi frustrated made him feel much better.

"How is my father’s health?" asked Shen Chi casually.

Wen Zhiyuan spoke as if it was nothing: "Still the same, undergoing treatment and maintenance every day, and your mother accompanies him daily. I’m afraid he’ll still need medication for treatment in the future, just without any agitation."

"No one agitates him."

"That’s right, other than you, his own son, no one dares to agitate Director Shen."

"You make it sound like I’m unfilial." Shen Chi glared at him.

"It’s not that, I think Director Shen hasn’t come around yet," said Wen Zhiyuan. "In the future, you should bring Xiaobao to see him; his mood might improve."

"Mhm."

"No matter how many disputes there were in the past, after all, you’re still one family, and it will pass. Xiaobao is so cute, I think Director Shen would really like him," said Wen Zhiyuan.

"If there’s another grandchild added, he would like it even more." As he said this, Shen Chi glanced at Wen Zhiyuan.

Wen Zhiyuan understood what Shen Chi meant; he just smiled: "Then your sister’s marriage has to be put on the agenda."

"Don’t worry about that, when my sister gets married, you will definitely be invited," said Shen Chi with a cold look at Wen Zhiyuan.

After so many attempts and mentioning it nearly every time he saw Wen Zhiyuan, this guy just showed no reaction.

So many years have passed since their fallout; could there really be anything that couldn’t be resolved?

"I will also prepare a gift," said Wen Zhiyuan, with a constant light smile on his face.

Shen Chi was nearly pissed off by Wen Zhiyuan. Preparing a gift? Was he eyeing Shen Di and Qin Chen?!

Mentioning these things just inexplicably ruined Shen Chi’s mood, so he simply dropped the topic and changed the subject.
