If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 479 - : Whatever I, Shen Chi, Wants

Chapter 479: Chapter 479: Whatever I, Shen Chi, Wants

“`

He called when she was sitting on the sofa, knitting a sweater.

She knitted with undivided attention, knitting earnestly.

These past few days, she had knitted quite a lot; she indeed looked forward to the day she could personally dress her baby in it.

Before, she found children particularly noisy and annoying. But recently, she had taken to watching parent-child shows.

Whenever she saw those adorable children on TV, she couldn’t help but wonder if her own baby would be as smart and lively in the future.

Um… they certainly would be.

At such times, she eagerly anticipated her baby growing up quickly so she could take them to partake in parent-child activities.

What she wanted had always been simple.

Because of the heat, Xu Chaomu was wearing only a loose white T-shirt as she sat on the sofa; her long hair was tied up carelessly, making her look exceptionally calm.

Shen Chi called around midday, and Xu Chaomu smiled as she looked at the screen.

The words “Husband” flashed on the screen, set by him. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

She answered the call but didn’t know how to start the conversation.

The two-day deadline was up today, and she still hadn’t signed her name on the agreement.

Once she signed, he would no longer be her husband.

Although, she never admitted aloud that he was her husband.

“Mumu, not seeing me for a few days, don’t you miss me?” Shen Chi was the one to speak first.

“Miss you? For what?” Xu Chaomu also smiled, although her smile was somewhat bitter.

“Miss your husband’s handsome and extraordinary charm, his dashing elegance, and also… his ability to warm the bed.”

“In such hot weather, I don’t need you to warm the bed.”

“Then what about the text message you sent a few days ago saying you missed me? What did you miss?”

“Sent to the wrong person,” Xu Chaomu replied coolly.

“Sent to the wrong person? So, who were you supposed to send it to?” Shen Chi pressed.

“Weiwei.”

“Mumu, you’re so disobedient. Wait till I come back and see how I’ll deal with you.”

“You… when are you coming back?” Xu Chaomu asked, her voice tinged with nervousness and hesitation.

“In a few days, I still have some matters to handle,” Shen Chi’s brow furrowed slightly, “Has the baby been well recently?”

“Quite well.”

Shen Chi couldn’t detect any ripples in Xu Chaomu’s tone, as if she was just humoring him.

“What’s wrong, not happy?” asked Shen Chi.

When she was unhappy, his mood would also plummet. He hoped that she could be cheerful every day; that was his Chaomu.

“Shen Chi, you haven’t come back these past days, did you really go to a meeting?” There was no expression on Xu Chaomu’s face.

At her words, Shen Chi’s brows furrowed deeply.

“Chaomu, what do you mean by that?”

“Nothing, I just don’t really believe you went to a meeting.” Her tone carried a trace of mockery.

“Xu Chaomu, speak clearly.”

When Shen Chi was in a good mood, he would call her “Mumu”; when upset, he would call her by her full name, “Xu Chaomu.”

Xu Chaomu knew that him calling her by her full name meant he was really unhappy.

“It’s nothing.”

“Speak!”

Shen Chi’s voice carried a sharp command over the phone, causing Xu Chaomu’s heart to tremble.

This man, when tender, could offer you the world, but once he turned harsh, he became the most dangerous.

“Does attending a meeting take several days?”

“I said it’s an important conference,” Shen Chi’s voice was deep and hoarse.

“Someone said they saw you mingling with quite a few women.” Xu Chaomu fabricated casually.

“So, are you jealous?”

“Why would I be jealous? I just feel like you’re lying to me.”

“Xu Chaomu, stop being unreasonable. There are no women in the hotel.”

This sort of thing, he would normally be too lazy to explain. But he thought, she’s pregnant, perhaps a bit more suspicious than usual, so he’d better clarify.

“Someone…”

“Stop with the ‘someone said this and that’. Unless you’ve seen it with your own eyes, don’t take it to heart so easily! Xu Chaomu, you’ve been with me for no short amount of time, how have you not learned even half of my smarts?”

Xu Chaomu’s mouth twitched; he was shameless, always seeking to feel superior in front of her.

She wasn’t as smart as him, but her baby would certainly be smarter than him in the future.

“You just like to bully me,” Xu Chaomu grumbled.

“If I don’t bully you, then who? Even Dabai is smarter than you.”

Usually, if Shen Chi said this, Xu Chaomu would definitely argue.

She would have argued forcibly, if he bullied her, she would retort.

But today was different, she didn’t want to argue about anything…

Besides, those words just now, they were being unreasonable. How could he go to the hotel to fool around with other women, she trusted him.

At this moment, her mood was extraordinarily downcast, and for a long while, she didn’t speak.

Silence, silence.

Finally, she spoke up.

“Shen Chi, let’s… break up,” she said.

Shen Chi’s face turned ashen on the other end of the line, his deep brows tightly knotted, his face showing impatience.

Plus, with the hot weather, he unbuttoned his shirt’s collar.

“Xu Chaomu, say that again!” he demanded, his tone especially dangerous.

Xu Chaomu’s heart raced, like a little rabbit thumping nonstop, as she felt very nervous and even a slight layer of sweat formed on her forehead.

She was never afraid of him, but at this moment, she felt guilty.

“We… should break up,” Xu Chaomu repeated weakly.

“Xu Chaomu, you really dare to say that!” Shen Chi burst out.

“I…”

“I’ve told you many times, I’ll listen to anything you say, but this is the one thing you must never even consider!” Shen Chi raged.

Xu Chaomu could hear his fury; this man was terrifying when angry.

“Shen Chi, after five years, I don’t like you that much anymore. Why do you still keep me around? It’s not good for anyone.”

“Anything Shen Chi wants, he will get, including you!” Shen Chi’s tone was sharp, like the edge of a knife.

“But I don’t like you anymore…”

“Don’t like? That’s fine, I have a thousand and one ways to make you like me.”

“I’m serious.”

“I’m serious too,” Shen Chi replied coldly, “Don’t think just because I’m at a hotel, I can’t come home and deal with you.”

“You…”

“You what?” Shen Chi didn’t give Xu Chaomu a chance to speak, in a furious tone, “Tell me, who have you taken a liking to? I can make sure he won’t be seeing tonight’s moon!”

“Unreasonable!” Xu Chaomu reproached.

“There’s no need to be reasonable with an unreasonable woman, Xu Chaomu, am I right?” Shen Chi said, “As for breaking up or not, the decision is in my hands.”

“I have that right!”

“Hmm? Generally, men are better suited to holding the initiative,” Shen Chi countered.

“Shen Chi, I’m serious, after five years, I don’t have feelings for you anymore. Sometimes I try to find that old feeling, but all I find is disappointment. Besides, I should have a happy family, a husband, children… why would you forcibly interfere?” Xu Chaomu said with a faint voice.
