If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 340 - : The Fourth Young Master Really Loves You
Chapter 340: Chapter 340: The Fourth Young Master Really Loves You
Jian Sisi seemed simple and straightforward on normal days, yet I never expected her to harbor countless schemes.
It was nothing more than seeing that Shen Chi was unmarried and childless, wanting to exploit the situation for her benefit through her child.
Indeed, she played her cards well.
But anyone who dares to gamble on Shen Chi’s head will only meet a tragic end, no matter who it is!
Shen Chi, with a stony expression, drove a Lamborghini into the night, heading for the hospital.
When Xu Chaomu drew the curtains, she just so happened to see Shen Chi’s car leaving the Shen Family estate.
Going out so late, Xu Chaomu snorted and closed the curtains, pacing back and forth in her room.
Unexpectedly, after five years, this place hadn’t changed at all—it was still the same as before.
The table was stacked with books, which she flipped through carelessly, the very ones she had left on her desk without a second thought five years ago.
Atop the books lay several test papers.
They weren’t just any papers but the ones from the midterm exam right before she left.
Xu Chaomu felt a surge of warmth in her eyes and a sourness in her nose as tears began to flow.
Those high school memories and bygone days couldn’t be returned to.
In those years, so carefree and naive, truly unaware of the taste of worry.
She randomly flipped through the test papers, her eyes lingering on the immature and naive handwriting as her tears flowed more freely.
As she flipped the papers, a faint scent of paper wafted up. Five years had passed, and the papers had yellowed slightly.
“Weiwei, lend me your homework to copy, I’ll bring you breakfast tomorrow!”
“Take it, take it, I copied it from someone else too.”
“Weiwei, what rank are you aiming for in this midterm exam?”
“I want to be last.”
“Last place is mine, don’t you dare take it.”
The years of youth passed too quickly.
“Thud, thud, thud.”
Suddenly, the door to her bedroom was knocked.
Xu Chaomu hurriedly wiped away her tears with a tissue, “Who is it?”
“It’s me.” The butler’s voice came through.
“Coming.” Xu Chaomu quickly went to open the door for the butler.
The butler held a glass of milk in his hand, “The Fourth Young Master just went out, and he asked me to warm a glass of milk for you. I added some honey. Drinking a cup before bed is good for your health.”
Xu Chaomu reached out to take it, “Thank you, butler.”
“What are you being polite with me for? The Fourth Young Master said you refused to eat dinner, so he had me bring you some milk. He said, you might not give him face, but you would at least give me face.”
“Butler, there are many things that you don’t understand.”
“I may not understand, but I still trust what I see,” the butler sighed, “Miss, let’s sit down and have a talk, shall we?”
Xu Chaomu nodded, moved a chair for the butler to sit on, and then sat on the bed herself, facing the butler.
“Miss, are you really going to get married? To that man who works at the company?”
“Yes, I’ve decided. We were planning on getting engaged anyway.”
“In your heart, is there really no place for the Fourth Young Master anymore?”
“I was young and ignorant before, like any other girl, I had a crush on him. But gradually I realized that we’re not from the same world, it was all my wishful thinking.”
“Miss, if the Fourth Young Master liked you too, would you change your mind?”
“No one would stay stuck in the same place,” Xu Chaomu said lightly.
“Miss, you really have no idea, the Fourth Young Master loves you, he truly does.”
Xu Chaomu took a sip of milk, remaining silent.
“These five years, you can’t imagine what he’s been through. That period right after you left the Shen Family, he was like a madman searching for you. Every morning, when I went to clean his room, I’d find a pile of cigarette butts on the balcony floor.”
The butler continued, “I always thought the Fourth Young Master liked Miss Bai, until I found out later, the one he loved… was you.”
Xu Chaomu spoke faintly, “Butler, he and I are not suitable.”
The butler became anxious, “What’s unsuitable? You like him, he likes you, isn’t that enough?”
“Butler, there are some things you don’t understand.”
Xu Chaomu was reminded of that night five years ago, the storm, the gunfire ringing in her ears.
The waves swallowed up the ship, the rain drenched their clothes.
Bai Man painstakingly told her that her mother, Xu Mengxi, had been killed by Shen Chi’s mother, Zhou Ran.
When she asked him about it, he didn’t deny it.
He had known all along, yet he deceived her for so many years.
Latter, she took a bullet for him.
She thought she would die, but to her surprise, she didn’t. She lived.
Since she lived, she had to live well.
“Can’t you talk to me about it?” the butler said.
“Butler, how about Miss Bai? Didn’t they get married afterward?”
“No, the Fourth Young Master and Miss Bai called off their engagement, and neither of them remarried. When that happened, it was well known throughout C City.”
“Wasn’t Miss Bai pregnant?”
“Pregnant? I haven’t heard anything about that.”
Xu Chaomu was stunned. Could it be true that she wasn’t pregnant?
A few days ago, when she brought up the matter, Shen Chi said Bai Man had deceived her, and now the butler was telling her the same, that Bai Man wasn’t pregnant.
Could it be that, five years ago, Bai Man really had lied to her?
“It couldn’t have been a pregnancy. If Miss Bai really had been carrying the Fourth Young Master’s child, Mr. Bai would never have agreed to cancel the wedding.”
“So, she really did deceive me,” Xu Chaomu lowered her head.
Back then, Bai Man went from the shopping mall to the hospital, with vomiting and medical check-ups, every step meticulously executed.
She had never once considered that Bai Man was deceiving her.
Not bad for an actress, such impressive acting skills.
“Miss, you have to believe the Fourth Young Master, he wouldn’t deceive you.”
“Not deceive me?” Xu Chaomu scoffed.
“You have to believe him.”
“Butler, it’s late, you should go back and sleep,” Xu Chaomu was tired of hearing these words.
She had believed him for eight years, but what had that led to…
Knowing she didn’t want to discuss it further, the butler didn’t insist and stood up, “Then you should rest well. Your room has been the same for five years; if you need anything, just call me.”
“Butler, I want to make a phone call.”
“This… this is not allowed.”
Xu Chaomu let out a cold laugh, “Is it his order again?”
The butler was silent.
Xu Chaomu didn’t speak again, turning to tidy up the things on the desk.
Understanding, the butler tactfully left, closing the door to her room behind him.
As soon as the butler left, Xu Chaomu took a shower, turned off the lights, and went to bed.
She lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
The bed was the same one she had slept in for eight years.
In the past, she could fall asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow, but now she found it impossible to drift off…
She kept touching her stomach, talking to the child inside.
“Baby, keep mom company and talk to me. Tell me, do you also really dislike your fourth uncle? You see, your mom grew up under his oppressive control.”

“Baby, mom will make sure to keep you away from him in the future. He has a terrible temper, prone to flips of anger as if the whole world should cater to his moods.”
