If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 329 - Let’s Get a Divorce
Chapter 329: Chapter 329 Let’s Get a Divorce
She had personally accompanied Bai Man to the hospital and watched with her own eyes as she entered the ultrasound room, where Bai Man pointed at a soybean-sized image on the screen with exceptional joy.
Bai Man said she was going to be a mother, and that it was Shen Chi’s baby.
“Mumu, how could you be so naive? Just because she said she was pregnant, you believed her?”
“Oh, I forgot. You’re incapable.”
Shen Chi’s face was full of black lines, the conversation circled back to this issue again and again.
Xu Chaomu didn’t believe it. Bai Man was clearly pregnant and, logically, Shen Chi’s child should be five years old by now.
But, what did the age of his child have to do with her?
Shen Chi touched her belly and asked with his chin resting on her forehead, “Does it still hurt?”
“It doesn’t hurt anymore. You can take your paw off now.” Xu Chaomu tried to swat away his large hand.
“Kick me away once you’ve used me? Huh?”
Shen Chi wasn’t so easy to use. As he spoke, his large palm moved upward from her abdomen and, when she wasn’t paying attention, he sneaked a squeeze at a soft spot through her shirt.
The feel of it… wasn’t bad.
Xu Chaomu immediately shrieked and pushed him away forcefully: “Shen Chi! You freaking roll away!”
“Keep your voice down. People who don’t know better might think I did something to you. If you feel like you’ve lost out, I’ll let you touch me.”
“I don’t fancy it. I’ve touched plenty of men abroad. I’m not into the likes of you.”
“But I am into you.”
Having said that, that person’s mischievous hand reached out again.
“Keep up this hooliganism and I’ll call the police! I’ll charge you with harassing a decent woman!” freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Xu Chaomu leaped aside, warily watching Shen Chi.
“Speaking of hooliganism, come here, I have something to show you.” Shen Chi beckoned her over with a not-so-innocent smile.
“What are you up to?”
“Just suddenly remembered something.”
“What?”
“Aren’t you getting engaged?”
“Yes, at the end of next month. Mr. Shen, would you honor us with your presence at the banquet? My fiancé is very handsome.”
“How handsome?”
“He puts you a hundred streets behind.”
“Have you registered your marriage?”
“We have. Why, are you envious? Jealous?”
“Really registered?” Shen Chi looked at her, impressed by her ability to lie without blushing.
Xu Chaomu felt a bit guilty under his scrutiny. Actually, she and Nie Chenglang hadn’t registered their marriage yet; they were just going to get engaged next month.
“It’s none of your business.” Xu Chaomu snorted coldly.
“If you really registered, then that would be a crime,” Shen Chi remarked while staring at her.
“What do you mean? Don’t think that just because you have the power to cover the sky with one hand in C City, you can spout nonsense.”
“Just wait, I have something to show you.”
After saying that, Shen Chi made a call to old Cheng.
As soon as old Cheng received Shen Chi’s call, he hurried over and handed a handbag to Shen Chi.
Shen Chi took the item from the bag and tossed it to Xu Chaomu: “Take a look for yourself!”
“What is this?” Xu Chaomu was puzzled as she unwrapped the layers of kraft paper.
As she unwrapped, she eventually found herself looking at two bright red marriage certificates!
Xu Chaomu was shocked and quickly opened them.
Shen Chi, Xu Chaomu.
Shen Chi, Xu Chaomu.
Genuine marriage certificates!
“What’s going on here?! Where did these marriage certificates come from?! When did I marry you?!”
Xu Chaomu’s eyes widened as she fired off a series of questions!
Since when had she become a married woman?
“Obviously, it’s a marriage certificate issued by the civil affairs bureau.”
Xu Chaomu looked closer and saw that the photos on the marriage certificate were from five years ago—that pink dress! Yes, it was that day!
That wasn’t right; they had gone to obtain a notarization that day, hadn’t they? How had it turned into a marriage certificate?!
Xu Chaomu was completely baffled, her eyes widened, while someone beside her was smiling as if basking in a spring breeze.
“Mumu, committing bigamy is a criminal offense.”
“Damn it, Shen Chi, get lost! This is serious coercion! You took advantage of me! I was clueless! Weren’t we supposed to get a notarization that day? How did it turn into a marriage certificate!”
“Unaware? But you looked quite happy in the photo.”
Shen Chi took the marriage certificate and pointed at the Xu Chaomu in it.
In these past five years, whenever it was quiet at night, he would lie in bed holding this marriage certificate.
He remembered them holding hands, walking into the civil affairs bureau together, taking this photo together.
Bound by hair, they were husband and wife, never to part in this life.

Xu Chaomu was so angry that she trembled, and her belly started to hurt again.
“Shen Chi, you’re the most shameless man in history. I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you, and I will not recognize this marriage certificate!”
“No matter, the law recognizes it.”
Shen Chi extended his long fingers and slowly wrapped up the marriage certificate again.
“We’re getting a divorce.”
“Impossible.”
“Shen Chi, let me tell you, you’ve been out of my heart for a long time. What’s the point of holding onto a marriage certificate? If I’m not happy, neither will you be, so it’s better to divorce.”
“I haven’t even enjoyed the rights of a husband yet. How can I possibly get a divorce?” Shen Chi looked at her indifferently.
“Shen Chi, don’t forget, I’m pregnant with my husband’s child. I can’t possibly be with you! Don’t ruin us! And don’t forget, you’re the son of the man who killed my mother. Let me tell you, I’ll never forget that for as long as I live.”
Shen Chi’s heart ached, and any good mood he had had disappeared in an instant.
He had always had a short temper over these five years, and hearing her say this, he suddenly stood up!
“Shen Chi, I will not be with you. If you still want to atone…”
“Enough!” Shen Chi shouted coldly, “Xu Chaomu, let me tell you, this marriage is not going to end!”
Agitated, he flung his hand, sending a teacup on the table crashing to the floor!
With a “clang,” the cup smashed, and the pieces flew everywhere.
Xu Chaomu, frightened, quickly covered her belly, afraid of startling the baby inside her.
The man’s eyes were blood-red, exuding a chilling air that inspired fear.
As he turned his head, he saw her protecting her belly, holding it tight, afraid of any harm coming to the child.
“You care that much about this baby? Who is the baby’s father?”
He walked toward her with large strides, bent down, and trapped her in a corner of the bed.
“What are you doing?”
Xu Chaomu’s eyes widened, her hands around her belly. She was reminded of three days prior when this man had taken her to the operating room.
“Tell me, who is the father of the child.”
“My husband.”
“There is only me as your husband!”
“You know very well that this baby has nothing to do with you. As for who the father is, sorry, but I had such a chaotic personal life abroad that I really need to think about who the father is.”
“You slept with more than one man?”
Shen Chi was completely enraged, grabbing her collar as if he wished he could strangle her.
“Yes. Surprised? Alone and stranded abroad, with no relatives, and no money, I had to survive. You know what it’s like, being pampered by the Shen Family, I didn’t know how to do anything. Later they told me, go act in adult movies, they pay well.”
“I had no acting skills, so I worked as a body double. My first time was given to a male actor.”
