Chapter 912 -912: I Have a Son Myself

“Remember to take off your clothes before sleeping,” Ji Shengxuan reminded him.

Seeing Shen Chi’s exhausted appearance, he was truly afraid he might fall asleep even while walking, so he couldn’t help but give a few extra reminders.

Shen Chi was already too drained to converse with him. After a twelve-hour flight yesterday and arriving in the evening, he had rushed to Waterside Pavilion and sat outside all night.

He said he needed some peace, and now he thought he had had just about enough of it.

“…” Shen Chi didn’t respond, simply opening the door to the room.

This was the first time he had come to mooch off Ji Shengxuan’s house.

Ji Shengxuan felt utterly helpless, but he wasn’t too curious. With Shen Chi looking like this, it was obvious that it had to do with Xu Chaomu.

Only everything to do with that little girl could so entangle his heart, entangle all that he was, even to the point where Shen Chi didn’t recognize himself anymore…

Those five years, Ji Shengxuan had watched as Shen Chi struggled through step by step.

Wasn’t Shen Chi’s headache the result of too much drinking during those five years?

Ji Shengxuan shook his head. After finishing his breakfast and before leaving, he reminded the butler, “If President Shen needs anything, just attend to him.”

“Yes, young master,” the butler nodded.

“Mhm.”

Wearing casual clothes, Ji Shengxuan had someone take him to the club. Today he didn’t need to negotiate with the businessmen, so it was a relatively easy day.

However, Ji Shengxuan was somewhat puzzled. Didn’t Shen Chi recently propose to the young girl quite prominently at the exhibition sale? It hadn’t been that long, so why were they at odds again?

At this thought, Ji Shengxuan’s eyes grew dimmer.

He couldn’t help but recall some memories…

Be it falling in love or newlywed life, there’s always a trying period of adjustment. If you can get through it, naturally that’s best, but if you can’t…

The corners of his lips betrayed a hint of bitterness as he gazed deeply out the window, silent.

…

When Shen Chi awoke, Ji Shengxuan had not yet returned.

He hadn’t slept for too long, probably because he wasn’t used to sleeping in the morning.

After taking the medicine, his head stopped hurting, but he felt a continuous, dull pain in the region of his heart.

Upon waking, he didn’t get out of bed immediately but lay there, surveying the guest room.

It was a tastefully decorated room, with a fresh style. Not much inside, only the most commonly used items like a water glass, teapot, ashtray, and so on.

Shen Chi was too tired; he picked up his phone to see the time, not having slept for long—it was just nine thirty.

There were several messages from Xiao Mo on his phone and nothing else.

He rubbed his temples again and after lying down for a while, he finally got out of bed.

He pressed the call button, and soon, a servant opened the door to the room.

“President Shen, may I ask what you need?”

“Bring me some toiletries, and this coat, help me wash it,” Shen Chi handed her his suit jacket.

The Ji Family’s heating was excellent; it was warm enough without needing a coat.

“All right,” the servant took it, “Please wait a moment.”

“Mhm.”

Shen Chi walked over to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the guest room. The space was spacious and bright, directly facing the sea, the azure water was a refreshing sight to behold.

He had to admit, Ji Shengxuan really knew how to enjoy life.

The waves surged one after another towards the shore. Standing at the window, the view was incomparable. Indeed, it was like facing the sea with spring blossoms.

The early fog had dissipated, the sun shining on the silver-tipped waters, while seagulls circled above, all around was quiet and beautiful.

Shen Chi’s hands were tucked in his trouser pockets as he silently watched everything outside the window.

Very nice.

However, Shen Chi hadn’t noticed that a fat, big yellow cat was running towards this guest room.

“Meow…” The big yellow cat narrowed its eyes and curiously walked up to Shen Chi’s feet, staring at him.

Shen Chi’s gaze returned, and he looked down to discover that it was a cat.

He knew it belonged to Ji Shengxuan, who treasured it greatly on normal days.

In the Ji Family, apart from Ji Shengxuan himself, it was this cat that held the highest status.

This yellow cat could roam in every corner of the Ji Family home, and whether it shattered precious vases or dirtied Ji Shengxuan’s valuable paintings, no one dared say a word.

Ji Shengxuan cherished the cat immensely; even when it showed temper, he still doted on it.

Even though the cat wasn’t of any particularly precious breed, it was quite common.

At that moment, Shen Chi saw that the cat was curiously looking at him, the guest.

“Meow, meow…” The yellow cat called out to Shen Chi twice more.

Seeing this cat melted Shen Chi’s heart.

Somehow, it reminded him of the “little wild cat” at his own home.

Shen Chi’s lips moved slightly as he intently watched it.

Then, a servant entered the room and kept apologizing to Shen Chi, “I’m sorry, Mr. Shen, for letting Ahuang disturb you.”

“Not at all.”

“I’ll take it away,” the servant said as she picked up the big yellow cat.

“Wait,” Shen Chi stopped her, “Is Young Master Ji still doting on this cat?”

“Yes, Mr. Shen, Young Master Ji treasures it a lot. Whenever it gets bumped or bruised, Young Master Ji feels distressed for quite a while. One time, a servant took it out for a walk and lost it, and Young Master Ji almost killed the person.”

“If I’m not mistaken, this is your Young Madam’s cat, isn’t it?” Shen Chi’s eyebrows twitched as he spoke in a low voice.

“Yes…” The servant’s face changed, and she said no more.

She nodded at Shen Chi and hurried away with the big yellow cat.

The big yellow cat seemed quite reluctant to leave Shen Chi, continuously “meowing” at him in a very cute manner.

Shen Chi remained composed and silent, saying nothing more.

It seemed that Ji Shengxuan was completely unaware of Weiyang’s appearance in C City last time; moreover, Ji Shengxuan probably couldn’t even dream that he had a son.

The boy named Su Shaoyan looked too much like Ji Shengxuan; their eyes, noses, mouths… as if carved from the same mold.

Su Weiyang really had some skill to have kept it a secret from Ji Shengxuan for so many years.

If Ji Shengxuan found out about this, who knows how angry he would become.

His own biological son had reached the age of six, and yet he had been kept in the dark. Any man would find this unbearable.

Even someone as graceful as Ji Shengxuan would undoubtedly be furious.

Shen Chi knew that this man’s surface grace and good temper concealed a heart that was ruthless and merciless, a man who would devour others without blinking.

Which successful businessman on the commercial battlefield didn’t have extraordinary means?

However, regarding the matter of Su Weiyang and Su Shaoyan, Shen Chi decided to hold off and find another opportunity to speak with Ji Shengxuan.

After all… he hadn’t even settled his own family’s affairs.

Shen Chi gracefully descended from upstairs. The Ji Family servants had prepared breakfast for him; he sat at the dining table, eating breakfast while waiting for Ji Shengxuan to return.

From the dining table’s position, he could see the beautiful scenery of the Ji Family garden; it was breathtakingly beautiful even in winter, with a charm all its own.
