If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 948: Chapter 948: Xu Chaomu is Flirting with Shen Chi Chapter 948: Chapter 948: Xu Chaomu is Flirting with Shen Chi “Butler, I’m going to hang up now. Make sure to take good care of Chaomu, make sure,” Yu Weiwei repeatedly urged, “Especially be on guard against Shen Chi’s mother. I’ve noticed Chaomu doesn’t quite like her, she’s always so evasive each time she mentions her.”

“Alright, I’ve got it all,” Butler Ling replied.

Not just her, during such a sensitive time, Shen Chi wouldn’t let Zhou Ran come to the Shen Family’s house either.

After Yu Weiwei hung up the phone, Butler Ling sighed and looked out the window.

By the swimming pool outside of the Shen Family home, Shen Chi was sitting with Xu Chaomu.

Today the sky was cloudless and the sun blistering; sitting outside in the sunshine couldn’t be better. She saw someone had brought them some pastries and hot drinks, and the two of them were talking about something.

Xu Chaomu was staring at the water in the swimming pool, her face unreadable.

“Mumu, in a couple of days, let’s take a trip to Australia,” Shen Chi said, seeking Xu Chaomu’s opinion, “What do you think?”

“Isn’t the group busy?” Xu Chaomu looked at him.

These past few days, she could clearly feel that Shen Chi had been by her side the whole time, not even inquiring about the group’s work.

“I’ve delegated everything to Xiao Mo,” Shen Chi said, “Just so happens, I’ve just finished with the expo and could use some relaxation myself.”

“Then alright, let’s go to Australia. My older sister is there too,” Xu Chaomu said calmly.

“Hmm.”

Shen Chi glanced at her, the girl’s large eyes showing neither sorrow nor joy. It had been almost a month, and he didn’t know if she had truly moved on from the shadow of the child.

His judgment was that she hadn’t.

The incident had been a huge blow to Xu Chaomu, and her excessive calmness always left him with a nagging unease.

All he could do was try his utmost to help her ease it all; as for the future, he believed in finding light amidst the darkness.

“Speaking of sister,” Xu Chaomu said, “I haven’t seen Doctor Wen for quite a while.”

“He’s always busy with work, and his medical skills are not bad either. Countless people specifically ask for him to perform surgeries,” Shen Chi said.

“Not to mention, Doctor Wen has a good temper and personality. Being busy… seems inevitable,” Xu Chaomu continued Shen Chi’s thought with a smile curving her lips.

“What, missing him?”

“I just feel like talking to Doctor Wen.”

Xu Chaomu looked at the scenery ahead, where a mountain of no great height stretched before them. Most of the trees on the mountain were withered, giving the whole mountainside a desolate yellow appearance.

A layer of hazy mist enshrouded the mountain peak, scattering in the wind.

“You don’t avoid the subject at all. If I didn’t know you liked me, I’d probably be jealous,” Shen Chi pinched her cheek.

“You should make more friends like Doctor Wen, instead of those like Li Beiting or Ji Shengxuan,” Xu Chaomu said smilingly.

“What if I told them both what you said? Guess what would happen?” Shen Chi looked at her leisurely.

“They wouldn’t dare scold me or hit me, so what consequence could there possibly be?” Xu Chaomu said disdainfully.

“So you think you’re right now, is that it?”

Suddenly, Shen Chi turned his head and moved closer to her, casting a glance at Xu Chaomu who was leaning back in the rattan chair.

As Shen Chi drew near, she caught the distinct clean, crisp scent that clung to him, and she turned to look at him.

Their proximity was close as Shen Chi simply gazed at her.

“If you keep looking at me like that, I’ll get shy,” Xu Chaomu said.

When it came to a battle of wills between them, she always lost.

Shen Chi had such attractive eyes; she couldn’t resist them after just a few glances.

“I just like the way you look when you’re shy,” Shen Chi said shamelessly.

He moved in even closer, to get a clearer view of Xu Chaomu. Now, only a few centimeters separated them, and he could clearly see her long eyelashes.

As soon as he looked at her, sure enough, she couldn’t stand her ground.

Xu Chaomu pushed him with her hand, “Be serious.”

“In the Shen Family, it’s well-known that the Fourth Young Master is a serious person,” Shen Chi continued shamelessly.

His gaze never left her face, it remained there the entire time.

“Shen Chi, you have no shame!” Xu Chaomu said in a lowered voice.

Here, there were many servants coming and going; it would be so embarrassing to be seen by others.

“In the Shen Family, your lack of shame is also well-known,” Shen Chi deliberately said.

“That was in the past!” Xu Chaomu argued with him.

“It’s still the same now.”

Suddenly, Xu Chaomu wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him closer to her, her hands hanging on his neck, she lowered her head and bit his shoulder.

It was neither light nor heavy, just a single bite.

Seeing her childish act, Shen Chi actually laughed. Then, he deliberately said, “To others, it now looks like you’re the one teasing me.”

Their posture was very intimate, and while Shen Chi’s hand was propped on the chair armrest, Xu Chaomu’s hands were hanging on Shen Chi’s neck.

In that way, indeed it was Xu Chaomu who was flirting with Shen Chi.

Xu Chaomu looked up, then pressed harder, pushing his neck down, bringing herself even closer to him.

Annoyed by the blanket on her, she simply kicked off the blanket from her body.

In the moment she drew near, she took the initiative and kissed his lips.

Their lips were both cold, like the chilly pool water, yet when they pressed together, they became as passionate as fire, igniting a blazing flame.

This time it was Xu Chaomu who took the initiative, she could no longer remember when she had ever been so forward.

Shen Chi was clearly surprised, frozen for a good few seconds, but then, the man reacted.

Unlike usual, when he would take control after reacting, although he’d always thought that in matters like kissing or taking the lead men should initiate, this time, he didn’t make any move.

Xu Chaomu, with her arms around his neck, kissed him, just as he would usually kiss her.

The girl was really into the role, wholeheartedly thinking about how to properly kiss him for once.

Shen Chi didn’t react, allowing her to have her way with him.

After rolling and tussling on his lips for a while, Xu Chaomu wanted to deepen the entanglement.

It’s just that her actions were both clumsy and awkward, putting a lot of effort into trying to kiss him, she almost fell off the chair.

At that instant, Shen Chi stretched out his hand, wrapping it around her waist!

With his powerful guidance, she tumbled into his embrace.

Shen Chi was too domineering, she simply couldn’t control him, and just when she was about to give up on the kiss, Shen Chi wrapped one arm around her waist and supported her little head with the other, turning passivity into initiative!

His kiss was far more skilled than hers.

To him, she always possessed a special charm and magic, and even after so many kisses, it still felt as wonderful as their first.

Xu Chaomu went limp in his arms, her small hands unable to hang onto his neck, so she had to let them drop.

Thankfully, Shen Chi would hold her, so she didn’t need to worry about falling.

She closed her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering slightly, allowing Shen Chi to kiss her.

The sunlight shone on her face, and his crisp scent filled her nostrils.

The air was pure, the breeze enchanting, and she was enveloped in his arms.

This kiss was lengthy and fervent.
