If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1272: Are You Pregnant?
Chapter 1272: Chapter 1272: Are You Pregnant?
Just then, Shen Chi walked over and picked up Xiaobao: "Daddy will take you to play with your little sister."
Xiaobao finally stopped fussing and made up with Shen Chi, completely forgetting about the puzzle.
After some thought, Xu Chaomu decided that in a few days, once she had given it enough thought, she would have Shen Chi take Xiaobao for a paternity test.
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Chi sat down next to her.
"Nothing..." Xu Chaomu denied.
"Do you still remember the name I gave Xiaobao?" Shen Chi asked.
Xu Chaomu nodded, and Shen Chi laughed again: "To be honest, I still like you the best when we were in the cave, so anxious about me, you almost gave up on Xiaobao."
He remembered everything, of course, every single detail.
To take care of him, she ran back and forth in the cave and often woke up from her sleep. She also said that if they lost the child, they could conceive again, but if he left her, she would follow him.
Xu Chaomu suddenly felt a pang in her heart, her nose tingled, and she tightly hugged Shen Chi’s neck.
"Don’t ever make me so anxious again; you can never leave me." Xu Chaomu’s voice was choked with sobs.
"Crying?" Shen Chi touched her fluffy little head, and actually smiled.
"Do you promise me?"
"Alright, alright, I promise you."
Xu Chaomu hugged him even tighter, her chest pressed against his, as if by doing so, their hearts could be even closer.
She hooked around his neck, unwilling to let go for a long time.
Time seemed to stand still, the whole room was utterly quiet.
...
After Valentine’s Day, Shen Chi seemed to get even busier at work, often leaving early and returning late, sometimes Xu Chaomu couldn’t even see him once.
But in that matter, Shen Chi was always relentless, no matter how late he returned at night, he would always pester her.
Xu Chaomu knew that the reputation crisis at Shen Group before the New Year had not been fully resolved, and Shen Chi must be very busy.
She also heard that the project in collaboration with Ji Shengxuan was about to start construction, and once it did, he would likely have even less time to come home.
She understood, marrying Shen Chi meant enduring a life different from ordinary people.
She had chosen to escape before, but now, she chose to accept.
She would get used to this kind of life, someday.
On this day, the weather was clear and sunny. Xu Chaomu held Xiaobao in the courtyard to sunbathe when a car stopped at the gate.
Xu Chaomu squinted, recognizing the car, it belonged to the Shen Shihan family.
Indeed, Mo Shuifu got out of the car.
"Chaomu, I heard you came back, I have missed you so much." Mo Shuifu walked over.
Xu Chaomu also stood up happily, handing Xiaobao to a servant nearby.
"Shuifu, long time no see."
"Where did you go? I’ve been trying to call you but couldn’t get through. Thankfully, Shihan told me not to worry."
"I stayed in Jin City for a while."
Xu Chaomu brought Mo Shuifu into the house, after a long absence, they had endless things to talk about.
Mo Shuifu was not usually talkative, but upon seeing Xu Chaomu, she too had endless things to say.
Xu Chaomu held her hand and shared lots of family and community news, Mo Shuifu listened in surprise, not expecting that so much had happened.
"This little guy is really cute." Mo Shuifu held Xiaobao in her arms.
When looking at Xiaobao, Mo Shuifu’s eyes revealed a kind and motherly love, as well as a twinkling sparkle.
"Xiaobao, call her Auntie," Xu Chaomu said.
Xiaobao had never called out this term before and was a bit confused.
However, after Xu Chaomu taught him a few times, he learned and called out "Auntie."
Mo Shuifu was delighted to hear it, feeling an indescribable joy in her heart.
Xu Chaomu didn’t know what to say either; she knew that Mo Shuifu had been married to Shen Shihan for many years without having any children.
"Is the Fourth Young Master very busy?" Mo Shuifu asked.
"Yes, he’s been leaving early and coming back late recently, not sure what he’s busy with."
"Shihan is the same, he can rarely come home." Mo Shuifu sighed, "I haven’t seen him for many days; he only spent a few days with me during New Year."
"The Third Brother is very good to you."
Mo Shuifu nodded: "Yes, he is really good to me, I know that."
She remembered that at first, she always thought that she liked Shen Chi, but her day-to-day interactions with Shen Shihan made her realize that love could sometimes be a gentle and gradual process.
It was just that neither of them were good with words, and many things had remained unsaid between them.
"Chaomu, the piano shop has been quiet recently, and I can go out now," Mo Shuifu said frowningly, "But I feel a bit unwell, could you accompany me to the hospital? Shihan is too busy, and I can’t see him, so I thought of asking you to go with me."
"Sure, no problem, I will accompany you. I just happen to have nothing to do at home."
"Thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? But where do you feel uncomfortable, is it serious?" Xu Chaomu asked anxiously.
Mo Shuifu shook her head, then smiled again after a while: "It’s nothing serious, just some dizziness and vomiting. I want to confirm it at the hospital."
Xu Chaomu realized immediately, asking excitedly, "Shuifu, could you be pregnant?"
Mo Shuifu smiled: "I don’t know, we’ll find out after going."
"Then let’s go in a bit," Xu Chaomu was thrilled, even happier than Mo Shuifu herself.
Although she had not completely forgiven Shen Shihan, her relationship with Mo Shuifu was very good, and for many years, she had hoped that Mo Shuifu would have a child of her own.
Children are truly angels sent by heaven, capable of dissolving all strife.
Just like Xiaobao, so adorable.
"Mm-hmm." Mo Shuifu nodded, a light smile always on her face.
"Shuifu, I need to tell you something."
"What is it?"
Xu Chaomu shared Bai Xuan’s matter with Mo Shuifu, and when she mentioned that Bai Xuan was her biological father, there wasn’t much fluctuation on her face as if she was just telling a story.
Mo Shuifu was somewhat surprised: "You’re saying, Bai Xuan is your biological father?"
"Yes, I never thought about it," Xu Chaomu said indifferently, "And I think, if it weren’t for Jiang Zhilan being in trouble, would they have never told me..."
"Bai Xuan..." Mo Shuifu pondered.
Xu Chaomu did not speak further. Having told Mo Shuifu about the issue, she felt much more at ease.
Mo Shuifu had seen all her experiences growing up; she knew about the hardships her mother and she had suffered.
If it weren’t for the Mo Family, she and her mother would have been bullied even more.
"I’ve met Bai Xuan before; it was last year." Mo Shuifu thought about it—it was at the golf course, "At that time, I was wondering where I had seen this person before..."
Xu Chaomu was taken aback: "Had you met Bai Xuan before?"
"Now that you mention it, I remember, when I was little, Bai Xuan went to find your mother."
