If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 845 - : Sharing the Bed for So Long Now

Chapter 845 -845: Sharing the Bed for So Long Now

Her mood had improved somewhat, and Shen Chi was considerate, so she didn’t hold it against him as much.

As an ordinary married couple, bumps and scratches were inevitable; if they took every argument seriously, life would be unbearable.

Shen Chi supported her all the way to the bathroom, which was close by, but it still took them quite a while to get there.

“Stand here, don’t move, be careful of the slippery floor,” Shen Chi let go of her hand.

“I won’t move around.”

Xu Chaomu leaned against the wall, silently watching him.

Shen Chi went in to adjust the water temperature for her, and when he found the perfect warmth, he started filling the bathtub with hot water.

Xu Chaomu squinted at him, and gradually, a thin mist began to fill the bathroom.

His bathroom had a minimalist style, unlike her room, which was decorated in a fresh, youthful, girlish manner.

Like his bedroom, the bathroom was dominated by just three colors: black, white, and gray, giving it a simple and monotonous look.

Xu Chaomu thought, no wonder this man lacked “sexual interest” for so many years; it had a lot to do with colors as well.

“You could ask the maid to come up and help,” Xu Chaomu said, deliberately.

“I’m not that idle,” Shen Chi looked at her, “Is that answer satisfactory?”

“…” Xu Chaomu’s lips curved up, her face showing a shallow smile.

Soon, the bath was ready, and Shen Chi turned to help her.

“Be careful, the floor is slippery,” Shen Chi supported her.

Xu Chaomu didn’t say anything, just enjoyed his tenderness.

Shen Chi removed her coat and reached to take off her sweater underneath, but as soon as he touched her collar, she shrank back.

“I can do it myself,” Xu Chaomu said, looking down.

“What’s there to see that I haven’t seen already?” Shen Chi teased with a twitch of his lips.

They had shared a bed for so long, and she was still shy?

“Don’t move,” Shen Chi didn’t give her a chance to refuse, “You are not in the position to.”

After saying that, Shen Chi held her hands and helped her out of her sweater.

Once the sweater was off, Xu Chaomu’s lovely figure was revealed in front of him. Despite being pregnant, her beauty couldn’t be hidden.

Xu Chaomu’s face turned red, and she let him take off the rest of her clothes without protest.

After helping her into the bathtub, he still showed no sign of leaving.

Xu Chaomu grabbed a towel, and said shyly, “Why aren’t you leaving? I’ll call you if I need anything.”

“Are you sure you can manage?” Shen Chi crossed his arms, deliberately gazing at her in the water.

Even with her attempts at covering up, he could still see everything clearly.

“Yes, I can,” Xu Chaomu responded.

“I’m not reassured; I’ll watch over you.”

“I’m less comfortable with you here,” Xu Chaomu frowned at him.

She had seen the desire in his eyes, but since she had told him not to touch her for a few months, he probably wouldn’t make any moves on her.

Shen Chi’s lips curved, “I won’t do anything to you, I’ve been really tired from work these last few days, and I’m not that interested in a pregnant woman.”

“…” Xu Chaomu inwardly scoffed, so bold to say he wasn’t interested when every time it came to that, he was fiercely energetic, terrifyingly so.

“But don’t worry…” Shen Chi bent down, whispering in her ear, “After you give birth, I’ll take back everything one by one.”

“Shen Chi you beast!”

With that, Xu Chaomu scooped up water with her hand and splashed it on him.

“…” Shen Chi was doused with water on his face.

The hot water streamed down his cheeks, soaking his dark blue shirt.

He wiped his face with his hand, looking at Xu Chaomu with a look of grievance.

Xu Chaomu did a bad deed and felt delighted inside; she intentionally let out a laugh.

“Xu Chaomu,” Shen Chi said through gritted teeth, “I think it would be better to shower together, so I can take better care of you.”

He deliberately emphasized the word “care.”

The next second, without another word and before Xu Chaomu could react, he stripped off his half-wet shirt and unbuckled his metal belt.

“Uh, Shen Chi… don’t come over… you… mmm…”

Xu Chaomu completely became a pet at someone else’s mercy.

…

Two days later, C City International Exhibition Hall.

The luxurious and dazzling exhibition hall was resplendent, bathed in light. The lobby on the first floor bustled with people, filled with service staff and workers from the sales exhibition.

Everyone was dressed in business suits; the women wore scarves, and the men wore ties.

The exhibition hall was grand and imposing, with electronic screens scrolling through international groups participating in the exhibit, hailing from all around the world.

Even though it was daytime, the lights all around were on, casting an even brighter, more luxurious glow over the exhibition hall.

Shen Group was the host of this sales exhibition, and everything at the exhibition hall was run by Shen’s in an orderly fashion.

Early in the morning, before dawn had broken, Shen Chi left the Shen Family home as he needed to stop by the group’s headquarters first.

As he got up, Xu Chaomu happened to wake as well, so he handed his tie to her, saying, “Tie this for me.”

“I’m not good at it,” Xu Chaomu said sheepishly.

“What’s there to fear when I am here?” Shen Chi said.

Having no choice, Xu Chaomu took the tie from his hand and tied it for him.

After tying it, he picked out a black, handmade suit from the wardrobe, somber and imposing without losing the air of a business elite.

Xu Chaomu half-squinted at him, unable to take her eyes off such a Shen Chi.

A cold and resolute face, furrowed brows, a high nose bridge, and eyes sharp as obsidian emitted a quiet, cold light.

The more she watched, the less sleepy she felt.

“Mrs. Shen, you should also get up,” Shen Chi said while adjusting his suit.

Xu Chaomu smiled, “I know, Mr. Shen.”

“Has Linda explained everything clearly to you?”

“She’s gone over everything. I’ll head to the group soon to meet up with them, and we will leave for the National Exhibition Center from there.”

“Alright.”

Once dressed, Shen Chi pressed the call bell.

Soon, a servant came up from downstairs, knocked on the door.

Shen Chi walked to the door, opened it and took a clothing set from the servant’s hands, then closed the door again.

“This outfit was custom-made for you,” Shen Chi said as he placed the clothes next to her pillow.

Xu Chaomu sat on the bed, her hands resting on her stomach, and curiously asked, “Open it up, let me have a look.”

Shen Chi hooked the corner of his mouth and opened the beautifully crafted wooden gift box.

Xu Chaomu watched intently, eager to see what kind of custom outfit it was.

As soon as the box was opened, an elegant and enchanting fragrance wafted out, like roses with a hint of bergamot.

Inside was elaborate and meticulous packaging.

It was a pure black dress, with the cuffs set with understated diamonds, exquisitely and lavishly made, yet the overall style was sober and low-key.

Shen Chi took out the dress and revealed a beige shawl jacket underneath.

“The exhibition hall won’t be cold, but you should still keep warm,” Shen Chi said indifferently.

“Black… won’t it be too much for me to handle?” Xu Chaomu asked, somewhat nervously.
