If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1277 Do You Know Who You Slept With?

Kissing and kissing, the two of them ended up in the corner of the wall.

Shen Chi caressed her hair, his tender gaze alone could melt Xu Chaomu.

"Let’s have dinner first, Xiaobao must be starving." Xu Chaomu knew what he wanted to do.

Shen Chi touched her head and smiled slyly: "Yeah... That’s fine."

Anyway, he came back early tonight; there was plenty of time.

During dinner, they had quite a lot of conversation, turns out he was in a bad mood today because of a project delay, which made him lose his temper at the board meeting.

Xu Chaomu rarely heard him talk about corporate affairs with her, now whether she understood or not, he would share with her.

She knew that he truly regarded her as family now, only with family would one open up their heart like this.

After dinner, he took her to the large room prepared for Xiaobao.

She said she liked the soft, fluffy blankets, so he sat with her on the blanket, watching the stars outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

He had a small glass of red wine in his hand, only he wouldn’t let her drink.

Xu Chaomu nestled in his arms, asking softly, "When will you have time?"

"Hm? Do you want me to accompany you?"

"Um... do you remember what I told you when I was pregnant the year before last?" Xu Chaomu finally made up her mind.

"You said quite a lot when you were pregnant, which one should I remember?" Shen Chi teased.

"It’s just..." Xu Chaomu was somewhat at a loss for words, unsure where to begin.

The room was lit by just one small table lamp, its light flickering on and off.

Looking at Shen Chi under the lamp, she felt an uncontrollable urge.

If she told him about this matter, would he still not believe her? Would he be happy?

"What’s wrong?" Shen Chi asked gently, looking at her.

He reached out a finger and gently stroked her lips.

"It’s just... Shen Chi, that April the year before last... our wedding anniversary... do you know who you slept with?" Xu Chaomu asked directly, gathering her courage.

Shen Chi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, his expression dimmed, and the sparkle in his eyes also faded.

His facial contours stiffened slightly, and even his fingers paused mid-air. Blood coursed through his veins at accelerated pace, his mind flashing through numerous scenes.

Just... on that day he indeed drank too much, never been so drunk before, because... on that day, it was also the day they registered their marriage, and she had not yet returned.

"Why bring this up all of a sudden?" Shen Chi said in a deep voice.

His voice in this dim room sounded particularly silent and carried a hint of forlornness.

That incident, he did not wish to mention again.

"Think about it carefully." Xu Chaomu turned her head, put down the wine glass from his hand, and looked at him seriously.

"I can’t remember." Shen Chi frowned tightly.

He really couldn’t remember, only a vague memory that the woman kept... crying out in pain.

Afterwards, he didn’t even turn on the light, and left the room leaning against the wall, feeling dizzy.

"How come that woman hasn’t chopped you up." Xu Chaomu said resentfully, "People like you, who get promiscuous with alcohol, as long as it’s a woman you’d go for, are you even human."

Shen Chi’s face was covered in dismay, placatingly he said: "I was ignorant... Afterwards, Jian Sisi kept saying it was her, so I didn’t think too much about it, I wrote her a check, told her not to entangle anymore, it’s just that I didn’t expect what happened afterwards."

"Is this what you usually do? Running into someone else’s room when you’re drunk?"

"I remember I didn’t go into the wrong room..." Shen Chi held his forehead with a headache, "Jian Sisi drugged me that day, which made me lose control. Believe me, I’m not normally like that."

"Don’t you have any impression of that woman?" Xu Chaomu pressed on.

"I don’t..." Shen Chi clammed up.

In fact, he also didn’t know why, but the woman that night, with her enticing scent, made him unable to stop himself; in his haze, there was always a familiar feeling.

Now... suddenly hearing Xu Chaomu ask this way, Shen Chi was smart, he suddenly realized...

In an instant, his eyes grew stern, and his gaze slightly cold, he stared intently at Xu Chaomu.

"Who knows if you’re usually that kind of man." Xu Chaomu muttered, "You make me feel uneasy. What if, when I’m older, you bring home several illegitimate children?"

The more Xu Chaomu spoke like this, the more Shen Chi doubted. A truly jealous woman wouldn’t talk like this without flipping the table!

His gaze turned harsher, but he did not expose it.

"Aside from that time in Paris, has your husband touched any other women?"

"I’m not monitoring you all the time; how would I know. You have lots of dinner events and social gatherings, who knows..."

"Who knows what?"

"You... I..." Xu Chaomu started to get incoherent.

"Xu Chaomu, do you know something?" Shen Chi’s voice deepened as he lifted her chin with his finger.

"What could I possibly know? I’m just worried. What if there really are illegitimate children in the future, what should I do?" Xu Chaomu looked pitiful.

"I somehow feel... that I indeed have an illegitimate child?" Shen Chi raised an eyebrow.

From her recent words, and what she said the year before last, he seemed to understand something.

A surge of dark tide swelled in his heart, wave upon wave crashing against his chest, fiercely pounding, but on the surface, he remained calm, tranquil as water.

Even his complexion didn’t change a bit, under the light, he was still as strikingly handsome.

Only his heart was pounded by the dark tides, surging, roaring!

Illegitimate child...

If he hasn’t guessed wrong, it’s highly possible that it was Xu Chaomu in Paris that night!

He was shocked by his own thought; he never considered it - yes, he was a man who valued evidence and logic, he simply didn’t believe such coincidences could happen!

Such coincidences were extremely unlikely, so unlikely they could be ignored!

But... his heart still shocked uncontrollably. If it was true, then Xiaobao was his son?!

Struggling to suppress this urge, he stared into Xu Chaomu’s eyes, trying to find some clue there.

Xu Chaomu’s gaze avoided his and she even had a smile on her face: "Really? Congratulations, President Shen, you’ve got an illegitimate child."

The next second, Shen Chi wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed her hard onto the carpet!

He pursed his lips, looking at her without any expression, trapping her legs so she couldn’t move.

"Xu Chaomu, why are you so happy?" Shen Chi’s voice was hoarse as he stared at her.

He was only a few centimeters away from her, he could see her long eyelashes clearly, and he could also feel her "thump-thump" heartbeat.

"Of course I’m happy; Xiaobao will have a companion, but... if your little mistress is better than me, then I’ll abdicate and let her have you."

"Better? In what way?" Shen Chi’s finger traced her cheek, lips, and chin.
