If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1374: Have You Never Seen a Girl Before?
Chapter 1374: Chapter 1374: Have You Never Seen a Girl Before?
"You’ve been rather keen on meddling in other people’s business lately," Shen Chi said indifferently.
"What do you mean ’other people’? Chuqing and I are friends, I’m worried about her."
"Worried about what? There was a lecture in the finance department at C University this morning, remember?"
"Oh!" Xu Chaomu slapped his head, "I remember now, Chuqing must be busy preparing for the lecture."
"Hmm, not everyone is as free as you are."
"Hey, Shen Chi, are you despising me now? I’ve only been free for a bit and you already despise me." Xu Chaomu pushed his shoulder, "It’s not like I don’t want to work. If you think I’m too idle, I’ll go job hunting tomorrow, so I won’t be in your way at home."
"I say one thing, and you respond with ten," Shen Chi hooked his hand, pulling her into his arms, his eyes carrying a slightly dangerous message, "Is it because your ’claws’ haven’t been trimmed recently and you’re ready to scratch again, hmm?"
"Let go, let go."
"I’ll deal with you later." Shen Chi pinched her face and smiled, "Let’s go out to eat."
"Eating out again? Are we bringing Xiaobao?"
"Let’s bring him," Shen Chi said.
"We must bring him, otherwise, the little guy will complain about us again." Xu Chaomu thought for a moment, "I’ll also call Weiwei and Li Beiting, bring little Xiaobao along too, I haven’t seen him for a while, really miss him."
"Is it so difficult to have a meal just with our family?" Shen Chi glanced at her displeased.
"Err... alright, alright, just our family, won’t invite anyone else."
Shen Chi drove them personally to a French restaurant with Xu Chaomu and Xiaobao.
Xu Chaomu has been having a good appetite lately, no more morning sickness, and what’s more, it’s been a long time since they had French food, she missed it.
She remembered back in Paris, Nie Chenglang used to take her out for meals often, thinking about it, since returning to the country, she and Nie Chenglang never really had a good meal together.
However, that was all in the past, and what remained of Nie Chenglang for her was endless nostalgia...
She heard Lu Feili fell sick after returning to the country, and several outsiders at Feili Group were eyeing greedily, wanting to snatch Feili Group from Lu Feili’s hands.
But they probably didn’t expect Shen Chi to help Lu Feili behind the scenes, considering everyone thought Shen Chi and Lu Feili were archenemies.
The outcome for those people, of course, wasn’t very pleasant. Lu Feili, knowing Shen Chi was helping her, was thankful and gave a large portion of Feili Group’s shares to Shen Chi.
Her only son was no longer around; keeping this vast group didn’t mean much anymore.
Her health wasn’t great either; for her later years, she wanted peace and handing the group over to Shen Chi was undoubtedly the best decision.
As for Qi Na, last time Shen Chi taught her a tough lesson, she was in the hospital for a long time. Old man Qi felt too humiliated, once she recovered from her injuries, he sent her abroad.
Shen Chi quietly warned Old Man Qi, not allowing Qi Na to return to C City.
Old Man Qi wouldn’t dare offend Shen Chi, especially since Qi Na was in the wrong, he agreed right away.
Shen Chi spared Qi Na from prison, Old Man Qi was already very grateful, how could he dare stir up more trouble?
Xu Chaomu is now just hoping that Shen Shihan wakes up soon, how good would that be...
Xiaobao was happily eating, and it just so happened that there was a cute little sister at the next table, he quickly made friends with her.
When leaving, he was reluctant, almost wishing he could go home with the little sister.
Shen Chi had no choice but to drag him away, Xiaobao looked back longingly, truly reluctant.
"This guy is really not promising," Shen Chi said.
Xu Chaomu laughed, "You might have been just like this when you were little."
"Who said that."
"Do you promise that you haven’t looked at any girls?"
"I have, and she was underage."
"Tsk tsk, Shen Chi, you really have a weird taste. Didn’t you scare that little girl? Does she have psychological trauma now?"
"Not at all, she’s still by my side, perfectly fine." Shen Chi gave her a glance.
"..." Xu Chaomu’s mouth twitched. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Shen Chi then wrapped his arms around her waist, gave her a look with a smile, sporting a determined expression.
...
After failing to contact Xia Chuqing for several days, Xu Chaomu felt there was something wrong and directly called Xia Chuqing’s class teacher.
The teacher responded indifferently: "Chuqing is at school, attending classes on time every day."
Xu Chaomu got angry, then why didn’t she answer her phone?!
So, Xu Chaomu had no choice but to take a trip herself and had the driver stop the car underneath Xia Chuqing’s dorm.
When Xia Chuqing came out for class, she just happened to stop her.
"Xia Chuqing, are you mad at me? Why didn’t you answer my calls? It’s not like I deliberately didn’t come to the lecture..." Xu Chaomu really couldn’t find a reason why Xia Chuqing would be angry.
Xia Chuqing paused, using her textbook to block the sun: "Chaomu... why did you come."
"Why didn’t you answer my calls?" Xu Chaomu asked.
"Oh..." Xia Chuqing’s expression immediately faded, a hint of worry between her brows, "It’s nothing, I just wanted some quiet."
"Quiet? Hearing that word from you surprises me, I remember you being quite optimistic. In Jin City, I particularly envied you, I always felt that you had no troubles..." Xu Chaomu said, "It seems, you do not consider me a friend, and there are some things you don’t want to discuss with me."
"It’s not that..." Xia Chuqing countered.
Xiao Mo also knows Xu Chaomu, but she didn’t know how to explain it to Xu Chaomu.
"Don’t make excuses!" Xu Chaomu looked at her, "Do you think now that I’m a mom to Xiaobao, I’m out of touch with you young students, so you don’t want to hang out with me anymore?"
"Of course not!" Xia Chuqing hurriedly said, feeling like she was in a position hard to defend.
Usually, Xu Chaomu seemed quite gentle, but Xia Chuqing didn’t expect her to be so straightforward and articulate when it came to reprimanding someone.
"Then tell me why."
"I..." Xia Chuqing hesitated, "It’s nothing... just got scolded by a teacher in class."
"Treating me like Xiaobao, thinking I’m easy to fool." Xu Chaomu said.
The thing is, her home’s Xiaobao isn’t that easy to fool either.
"Sister Chaomu... maybe you shouldn’t ask anymore, you’re pregnant, go home and rest early, I’ll go to class."
"You go to class, I won’t hold you up, I’ll wait here for you."
Xia Chuqing widened her eyes: "Let’s not, you should go home to rest, if something happens to you, I wouldn’t be able to bear the responsibility, Mr. Shen would kill me."
"If you don’t clear things up with me, I’ll deal with you first." Xu Chaomu pretended to wipe her neck to scare her.
"..." Xia Chuqing pouted, "Then let’s go to the tea shop, I’ll skip class."
"Skipping class is not what a good student does, you go to class, I can wait." Xu Chaomu said.
"It’s okay, it’s my best subject, Monetary and Financial, missing a few classes won’t affect much." Xia Chuqing said.
"Oh..." Xu Chaomu was quite confident in Xia Chuqing’s studies, knowing Xia Chuqing always won a scholarship as an excellent student, so she wasn’t worried.
