If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 708: Chapter 708 Can’t Even Wear the Wedding Dress Anymore

“You’re trying to compliment me?” Shen Chi raised an eyebrow. If she wanted to compliment him, she should just be direct about it—he loved hearing it.

“Forget I said anything,” Xu Chaomu knew that this man was quite vain and shouldn’t be praised too much.

Xu Chaomu continued to bury her head in his chest, finding his scent to be pleasantly fragrant, and his chest always gave her a sense of security.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and secretly smiled.

“Mumu, guess what time it is now?” Shen Chi looked down at her, this silly woman.

“I don’t know. Are you trying to rush me to go to work?” she whispered.

“Seven o’clock.”

“Huh? What does that mean?”

“It means we can go another round.”@@novelbin@@

Having said that, Shen Chi embraced her waist and pinned her beneath him. With a light touch, he unfastened his own clothes.

Men who awoke in the morning were like wolves, a fact that Xu Chaomu had been informed about many times by Yu Weiwei.

Indeed, Shen Chi’s eyes were filled with desire.

Xu Chaomu hadn’t even put on clothes before she was pressed down by him.

“Shen Chi, can’t we calm down a bit?” Xu Chaomu furrowed her brows discontentedly, “I’m pregnant.”

“Then tell me truthfully, if you weren’t pregnant, would you want me to calm down?” Shen Chi’s slender fingers caressed her chin.

“Uh…” Xu Chaomu’s face turned red. She could not believe he would ask such a question.

Xu Chaomu lowered her eyelids and pushed him with her hands: “I refuse to answer.”

“If you say you hope so, then I think you’re frigid in some ways,” Shen Chi said without any courtesy.

“Do you think I’m frigid, Mr. Shen?” Xu Chaomu was angry. Damn, it was the first time anyone had ever said that to her.

Five years ago, when she was the one seducing him, she couldn’t have been more passionate. Back then, he had truly been the cold one.

“Then let’s try it out.”

“Get up, I need to go to work at the company. Linda said she’s taking me to see the finished necklace,” she said.

“She can go see it by herself just as well,” Shen Chi said indifferently.

After saying that, Shen Chi could no longer restrain himself. He bent down and captured her neck with his lips, his tender, moist kisses falling on her neck like gentle spring rain.

“Ah…” Xu Chaomu let out a soft moan, unable to stop him.

She thought to herself that she probably wouldn’t be able to get up properly in the mornings from now on.

The morning’s Xu Chaomu was like a half-ripe green apple on a branch, with an air of youthful tartness about her, especially her long black hair scattered over her shoulders, which made her look even more like a young woman.

Such a Xu Chaomu was irresistible to Shen Chi; his breathing grew even more ragged.

“Shen, Shen Chi…” Xu Chaomu pushed at him urgently, but the man was unmoved.

Unfortunately, his kisses made her go soft and numb all over, her little hands devoid of strength and hanging on his neck.

After his explorations from the previous night, he had fully learned all her sensitive spots.

Now, to get her in the mood quicker, his kisses targeted those spots, and his hands roamed freely.

“Ah…” Xu Chaomu, stimulated beyond her control, couldn’t help but cry out, “Big… big brother… no… Ah… don’t…”

“Dishonest,” Shen Chi curved his lips, nibbling at her earlobe.

As she arched her back, he entered her once more and commenced the morning’s first exercise.

Xu Chaomu was completely blank-minded, as if she were walking on clouds, utterly powerless.

Dazed and confused, she had no idea of time.

This time, after toying with her for more than an hour, he finally let her be.

The sunshine filled the entire room, casting shards of golden light onto the floor.

Shen Chi was drenched in sweat, and so was Xu Chaomu. After letting her go, he patted her cheek and curved his lips.

“Next time… you can scream a little louder.”

Xu Chaomu’s face turned red, and she grabbed a pillow to smack it against his face: “Get lost, Shen Chi, just get the hell out of here without stopping!”

She remembered how she had been clinging to him and crying out “gently” and “slowly”…

“I’m going to take a shower; want to join me? Hm?” Shen Chi asked with a smile.

“Get lost, stay away from me, I don’t want to see you for a few days,” Xu Chaomu gritted her teeth.

“I want to see you,” Shen Chi said as he took the pillow away and got out of bed.

Naked, he entered the bathroom, and soon, Xu Chaomu heard the sound of running water.

She quickly wrapped herself in a robe, put on slippers, and ran back to her own room.

Once back in her room, she firmly closed the door. Looking in the mirror, she found her body covered in blue and red marks, all inflicted by a certain beast.

She quickly took a bath in the bathroom, scrubbing hard at the marks on her body, but to no avail—she eventually gave up.

When she went downstairs, Shen Chi was already sitting at the dining table.

Wealth was running around at his feet. Evidently, it had grown familiar with Shen Chi and had started to cling to him.

Shen Chi was calm, eating breakfast elegantly while feeding Wealth some treats.

His white shirt’s top button was slightly undone, revealing a hint of sexy skin. With his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, he put aside his usual indifference; his entire visage softened, his eyes filled with warmth.

“Woof woof woof”… Little Wealth ran about, gobbling up food, never ceasing to be lively.

By the time Xu Chaomu came downstairs and approached him, he had already placed breakfast in front of her.

Shen Chi glanced up briefly, acting as if nothing had happened, and simply said, “Eat more.”

He saw the marks he had left on Xu Chaomu’s neck and slightly curved the corner of his mouth.

Xu Chaomu bowed her head in silence and just continued eating her breakfast.

Wealth ran around Shen Chi’s feet for a while before moving to circle around Xu Chaomu’s.

The bell around its neck kept jingling incessantly, filling the living room with its sounds.

“Who put that little bell on it?” Xu Chaomu asked curiously.

“Sister.”

“It’s quite cute,” Xu Chaomu said with a smile, “By the way, I’ve been missing sister a bit.”

“Li Beiting is getting married; she’ll come back for that.”

“Li Beiting is getting married… I doubt that,” Xu Chaomu said, “How is he doing with Mi Fei?”

“Mind your own business,” he said.

“I’m not interested in Li Beiting; I care about Weiwei. It’s not real until the marriage license is obtained, and the wedding is held,” Xu Chaomu muttered.

She remembered that she herself had only got the marriage certificate and hadn’t held a wedding.

Very few people knew that she was married to Shen Chi.

“Hmm,” Shen Chi responded indifferently, expressionless.

Xu Chaomu mumbled under her breath. What did his “Hmm” mean?

Was he not planning to hold a wedding with her? But now, she was already four months pregnant, and with a visible bump, the wedding dress would no longer fit.

If there’s no wedding, then so be it, she thought. There was just a hint of regret in her heart.

Yet, what worried her most was the feeling of insecurity.

If Shen Chi truly wanted a wedding, Zhou Ran and Shen Cexian would definitely not come, would they?

Who wouldn’t want their parents present at their wedding…
