If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 809: Chapter 809: Amniocentesis for Paternity Test with Him

Yu Weiwei rolled her eyes, “With the likes of you, don’t you know that even attending parent-teacher conferences for you used to embarrass Shen Chi?!”

“Why, why, it’s tough enough, okay? Bringing this up makes me angry. Until I left C City, he only attended one parent-teacher conference for me, and even then, he did it sneakily as if he was afraid others would find out he’s my fourth brother.”

“You did not make him proud, either.”

“Then do you think if I have a son, he’d just take after Shen Chi?” Xu Chaomu snorted.

“Is the kiddo in your belly really Shen Chi’s?” Yu Weiwei still didn’t believe it.

Last time, Xu Chaomu had told her about it mysteriously, and it sounded like a tall tale to her.

“Really,” Xu Chaomu said.

“Don’t believe it,” Yu Weiwei still shook her head, “It’s like a fantasy.”

“Believe it or not, it doesn’t matter, Shen Chi himself doesn’t believe it either.”

“We are people who value evidence, you don’t have proof, of course, nobody will believe you.” Yu Weiwei took a bite of bamboo shoot, “But, once he’s born, bring him for a paternity test.”

“That’s what I was thinking too. Shen Chi doesn’t believe it, you don’t believe it, Doctor Wen doesn’t believe it, they made me start doubting myself.”

Yu Weiwei laughed, “But your man is really good to you. Even thinking the child belongs to someone else, he treats you and the baby with no difference. No, he actually dotes on you a lot.”

“You didn’t see him when he’s in a bad mood,” Xu Chaomu pouted.

“But… Xu Chaomu, if the child turns out not to be Shen Chi’s, wouldn’t that hurt him a lot?”

“Right…” Xu Chaomu said blandly, “So last time I suggested doing an amniocentesis to test paternity with him, but he flatly refused.”

“Better wait until the child is born, amniocentesis isn’t good for your health,” Yu Weiwei said.

Xu Chaomu nodded, “I know.”

“Actually, whether you do it or not doesn’t matter, he won’t doubt you.”

Yu Weiwei still had faith in both Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu, even though they had only lived together for a few months after five years.

“Alright, enough about me. Let’s talk about you,” Xu Chaomu changed the subject.

“What’s there to talk about me? Busy working every day, still not making as much as your sweetheart does in a minute,” Xu Chaomu propped her chin.

“Your man Li Beiting can make a good amount too, ha!” Xu Chaomu comforted her, “Shen Chi said he has a few good projects recently.”

“What does he have to do with me?” Yu Weiwei snorted.

Now, hearing what Yu Weiwei said, as expected, Yu Weiwei seemed unaware that Li Beiting was going to get married in ten days.

Since Yu Weiwei didn’t know, Xu Chaomu didn’t plan to tell her.

“By the way, your institute is expanding, do you need my help?” Xu Chaomu shifted the topic again.

“What can you, a pregnant woman, help with? Carrying bricks or masonry?” Yu Weiwei gave her a disdainful look, “Take good care of your pregnancy; first teach this little guy to call ‘sister’ once he’s born.”

“Dream on, ‘sister’ my foot, taking advantage of me!” Xu Chaomu huffed.

“Don’t you think I’m beautiful as a flower, like an eighteen-year-old girl?”

“No no, eighteen is too old; you look sixteen.”

“…” Yu Weiwei rolled her eyes, “That’s insincere, the friendship boat flips just like that!”

With that, both of them laughed.

While they chatted, when it got past seven, they finished eating and walked out of the dry pot restaurant.

Yu Weiwei was carrying a bottle of beer, opening it as soon as she stepped out of the restaurant.

To accommodate Xu Chaomu, Yu Weiwei walked slowly, taking sips of beer as they sauntered along.

Not far from the dry pot restaurant, Yu Weiwei pointed to her research institute and asked, “Beautiful, isn’t it?”

Xu Chaomu looked around, and although the research institute wasn’t very big yet, it had become much more impressive after the recent renovations.

The windows were bright, and more than half of the lights inside were still on.

“Beautiful, really nice,” Xu Chaomu said with a bit of envy.

“Chaomu, aren’t you designing at Shen’s? How’s it going? You said you liked it a lot.”

“My work capability is definitely amazing!” Xu Chaomu declared.

“Is… it…” Yu Weiwei looked at her doubtfully.

Xu Chaomu thought that it would be great if her work could win an award at the upcoming sales exhibition; she hadn’t won an international prize yet.

Yu Weiwei tilted her head back and took a sip of beer.

She pointed to a building not far away, “Dare to go up to the rooftop for some fun?”

At that moment, the night breeze lifted their long hair, sending strands flying in the wind.

Xu Chaomu narrowed her eyes, looking at the tall building.

She admitted defeat, “I don’t dare, I’m afraid.”

“When did you become so timid?”

“I’m carrying a baby, can’t take risks,” Xu Chaomu shook her head.

“Fine, after you give birth, let’s see if you’ll dare,” Yu Weiwei said.

“I will, I’m very brave, don’t you remember my heroic deeds from back in the day?”

“Anyone can boast. It’s settled then, after your baby is born, you’ll accompany me for some fun,” Yu Weiwei said.

Before Xu Chaomu could respond, Yu Weiwei frowned again, “You say you’re so young, what’s with having a baby? You can’t treat it as a toy. Once it’s born, you’ll see. I’ve heard that kids are very troublesome!”

“It’s not my fault, I didn’t want to become a mom so young either,” Xu Chaomu complained.

Blame should be placed on Shen Chi, that beast, for climbing into her bed without taking proper precautions.

But then again, he was so drunk that he couldn’t remember anything. Forget it, she forgave him.

“I’m telling you, once you have one, that beast of yours will definitely want you to have a second, and after the second, he’ll want a third. That’s how these wealthy families do it. I think your future’s pretty much gone. I won’t see the delicate and charming Xu Chaomu anymore, just a pregnant woman waddling in front of me all the time,” Yu Weiwei said, looking at her with a great deal of sympathy and shrugging her shoulders.

“I… won’t let him get his way,” Xu Chaomu swore confidently.

“Can you outplay the one at your house?”

“Are you insulting my intelligence?”

“No, just a little doubtful,” Yu Weiwei said with much sympathy. “Of course, I still have confidence in you. Go for it.”

After speaking, Yu Weiwei took another swig of beer.

Walking along the path in the evening breeze, the two of them together.

The autumn wind was cool, and the fragrance of grass came softly from the green belts around. Streetlights quietly illuminated the ground, casting a dim yellow halo.

It was a beautiful enjoyment to walk and chat on such a night.

Just then, Yu Weiwei swallowed a gulp of beer, and suddenly, her stomach began to churn uncomfortably.

“Ugh…” She hurriedly threw down the beer bottle and ran to the trash bin.

“Hey, Weiwei!” Xu Chaomu also hurried over.

Yu Weiwei bent over, vomiting incessantly by the trash bin.

Xu Chaomu looked at her disdainfully, “I told you not to drink beer. Look, your stomach’s upset now, isn’t it? You know your stomach has always been weak.”
