If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 716: Chapter 716: Want to Do it Again

Xu Chaomu casually pulled over the blanket from the bed and covered herself with it. Truth be told, couldn’t she resist?

She touched her belly and muttered to herself under the blanket, “Baby, you have a brute for a daddy.”

“What are you muttering about?” Shen Chi heard her and barked at her again.

Xu Chaomu felt wronged, she poked her head out of the blanket, unhappy, “Why are you yelling at me again? Didn’t we agree back in the cave? You weren’t allowed to yell at me anymore…”

“Did we agree? How come I don’t remember?”

“You’re being shameless, you still are…”

Xu Chaomu covered her mouth, oh, some things can’t be said recklessly now.

In the past, especially five years ago, she loved to say, “Are you even a man?”

Every time she said that, someone would raise an eyebrow at her: “Want to try?”

Okay, now she had tried, and he was not only a man, but a very powerful one at that.

Ying ying ying, Xu Chaomu covered her face, how could she become so dirty-minded.

Just as she grabbed the blanket, Shen Chi had already taken off his shirt, raising an eyebrow at her, “Are you going to take it off yourself, or shall I help you?”

“I…” Xu Chaomu looked crestfallen, not sure how to answer his question.

Right at this time, it was still daytime outside, bright everywhere, and more importantly, it was just past three in the afternoon, one of the hottest times of the day, yet Shen Chi chose this moment.

“When exactly are you going on your business trip?” Xu Chaomu asked.

“The flight is at seven in the evening.”

“Then why did you come back so early?” Xu Chaomu slammed in anger.

“Don’t you want me to come back and see you? Huh?”

Shen Chi felt that Xu Chaomu was starting to misbehave and needed to be properly punished.

He threw off her blanket and, really, she had no reaction at all, still fully clothed!

“Shen Chi, we had an agreement, take it easy, you can’t go back on your word. Otherwise, when the baby is born, I’ll have him call you ‘Uncle Four,’ and he will hate you to death,” Xu Chaomu said, “Do you know that being thrown around repeatedly will make the baby very frail?”

“Xu Chaomu, are you finished?!” Shen Chi snapped angrily, “Thrown around repeatedly? You have the nerve to talk about repeatedly?!”

Shen Chi was angry, in total how many times had they done it?

An angry man is frightening, especially an angry man filled with desire.

With a swift move, he ripped open her T-shirt.

Xu Chaomu closed her eyes, resigning herself to fate.

Sure enough, this time, that someone showed no mercy, heavy kisses landed on her skin, leaving one mark after another. His palms were like fire, each caress causing Xu Chaomu to shudder uncontrollably.

“Ah…”

His burning skin pressed against her body, and she couldn’t help blushing, wrapping her arms around his neck.

His eyes were filled with a predatory, scorching glow, as he drowned in her tenderness and beauty…

His foreplay was always thorough, because he did not want to hurt her.

This time, Xu Chaomu truly felt no pain; she clutched his neck, delighting in the pleasure he brought her…

…

By the end, evening had arrived, and that beast of a man wanted to go another round, but Xu Chaomu mercilessly pushed him away.

The setting sun was low, casting a layer of orange gauze everywhere, hazy yet utterly beautiful.

Even the curtains in the room were covered in orange, with some light falling on the floor, casting shadows of various objects.

Shen Chi was originally holding Xu Chaomu, but she pushed him forcefully: “Go away, go away, go away.”

“So eager to have me leave?” Shen Chi curled his lip into a smile.

“Yes!” Xu Chaomu was the first to jump out of bed to take a bath.

Only when she got down did she realize her waist ached, her back hurt, and her legs were trembling.

She had no choice but to hold her waist, stick out her belly, and lean against the wall to make her way to the bathroom.

Seeing her like this, Shen Chi smiled with satisfaction, seemingly very pleased.

While she was bathing, he also took a shower.

When Xu Chaomu came out, Shen Chi was already sitting at the dining table downstairs.

“Why haven’t you left yet?” Xu Chaomu glanced casually at the clock. It was already past five.

“I want to look at you some more,” Shen Chi answered lightly.

Xu Chaomu rolled her eyes at him. That man sat at the dining table, as if nothing had happened, gracefully peeling an orange.

After the bath, he appeared as if everything was normal—dressed in a neat, ink-colored handmade shirt and a tidy navy-blue tie, very much the image of a CEO.

Xu Chaomu had changed into a light pink, loose-fitting dress, and she slowly approached the dining table and sat down.

“By the time I return, your belly will have grown quite a bit,” Shen Chi said calmly.

“Didn’t you say, at the soonest it’d be four or five days?” Xu Chaomu got anxious hearing him say that.

Anxiousness showed in her eyes. She really didn’t want him to leave.

But she knew it was impossible; he was a CEO, and the company couldn’t run without him. He was busy every day.

“That’s just an estimate,” Shen Chi said expressionlessly.

As he spoke, he finished peeling an orange and handed it to her: “Here.”

“You try it first,” Xu Chaomu said.

“I don’t want to,” Shen Chi frowned.

This season’s oranges were somewhat sour, and Shen Chi didn’t like to eat things that were too sour, but he knew Xu Chaomu liked them since she got pregnant.

Xu Chaomu took it, broke off a piece, and tossed it into her mouth.

As she ate, she started to feel a little sad.

“Can you try to come back earlier?” she asked, head down, eating the orange.

It’s uncertain if it was the sourness of the orange, but her nose turned sour, and her eyes welled up with tears.

“It depends,” he said.

These things, he couldn’t say for sure.

“Will you miss me?” Shen Chi shamelessly asked.

But Xu Chaomu wasn’t in much of a joking mood, eating her orange without a word.

“Be good, remember to call me,” Shen Chi looked at her.

Sitting opposite her, he gazed tenderly at her face. A few extra glances would also be nice.

He didn’t even know how he had managed those five years. Now, every smile and frown of hers was so beautiful.

Every day with her was a sunny day.

Although he might scold her sometimes, he… cared about her too much.

Xu Chaomu swallowed a bite of orange and nodded.

She offered Shen Chi another segment of the orange: “Here, you have a bite too.”

“I don’t want it,” Shen Chi frowned; he disliked sour tastes.

“You won’t eat it even if I feed you?”

“No!” Shen Chi was adamant.

“You’re not giving me any face,” Xu Chaomu withdrew her hand. @@novelbin@@

She hadn’t even fed him yet and he was so disdainful. Really, the oranges didn’t seem that sour; they were okay to eat.

As she ate the orange, Shen Chi just watched her.

“It’s getting cooler, remember to dress warmly,” Shen Chi said coldly.

“I know, I know, look after yourself outside too,” Xu Chaomu said.

“Hmm.”

“When are you leaving?” Xu Chaomu asked again, unable to hide her reluctance.
