Chapter 781: Chapter 781: A Warm Family Dinner for Three
“Do you think I’m thinking about you every moment, with my heart filled with you?” Xu Chaomu rested her chin on her hand as she gazed at him, “Where else can you find such a wonderful wife like me?”
“Xu Chaomu, do you have no shame?” Shen Chi gave her a cold look.
“I have no shame, and neither do you, so why should I need any?” Xu Chaomu looked at him and laughed.
“…” Shen Chi’s face was lined with exasperation.
Xu Chaomu loved to see him at a loss; his frustration always amused her.
So, after watching him for a while, she resumed eating.

Shen Chi sat beside her, joining her, and before long, Xu Chaomu began feeding Shen Chi.
“Husband, have a taste of this tiramisu,” Xu Chaomu said, offering him a spoonful.
“Husband, try a bite of this cream puff.”
“Husband…”
At first, Shen Chi was adamantly resistant, but Xu Chaomu’s enthusiasm never waned despite his myriad of rolled eyes.
“Shen Chi!” Xu Chaomu became unhappy, “If you won’t eat what I feed you, I’m going to sleep over at Yu Weiwei’s house tonight! And you won’t see me for days!”
“Not eating, take it away!” Shen Chi felt embarrassed, his expression darkening.
There were so many people in the restaurant, and here he was, a man being fed by a woman, how inappropriate!
“Really not eating? If you really won’t, I’ll be angry!” Xu Chaomu huffed.
She admitted she was doing this on purpose. If he dared to kiss her in public, she dared to feed him in public. They would see who was less ashamed.
As it turned out, both were quite shameless.
“Xu Chaomu, do you believe I will gobble you up right now?!” Shen Chi said in a low growl.
“…” Xu Chaomu’s expression feigned fear, but she was still doing it on purpose.
The two locked eyes, sparking countless flashes of challenge, neither willing to back down.
However, clearly Shen Chi had the upper hand. The coldness in his eyes was enough to subdue her, and Xu Chaomu obediently bowed her head.
That tactic wasn’t working, so she simply lowered her head and stayed silent, quietly eating. She kept on eating and said nothing, her whole demeanor projecting an air of pitifulness.
Sure enough, this tactic was more effective.
Finally, after a long silence from Xu Chaomu, Shen Chi looked at her again.
“What’s the matter?” Shen Chi asked indifferently.
“…” Silence.
“Why aren’t you speaking?”
“…” Silence.
“Are you upset?”
“…” Silence.
After asking her three questions and receiving only silence as a response each time, Shen Chi conceded.
“I was wrong,” Shen Chi said.
But wait, Xu Chaomu could hear a whiff of tsundere pride in his voice, as if he was being forced to admit it.
Xu Chaomu still didn’t speak, quietly focusing on her food.
“Chaomu,” Shen Chi called out to her, “I will allow you to feed me.”
“…” Xu Chaomu was truly amused by someone’s permission, as if she wanted it!
As Xu Chaomu continued her silence, Shen Chi grabbed her hand, holding onto her paw.
“Hey, Shen Chi, what are you doing? I want to eat, eat!” Xu Chaomu glared at him.
Shen Chi returned her gaze, his eyes twinkling with pride. He kept holding her hand, not letting go, and said nothing.
Okay, in the end, it was Xu Chaomu who gave in.
“Alright, alright, I’ll feed you, just let go of my paw,” Xu Chaomu snorted.
Paw? Shen Chi was taken aback; this was the first time someone had used that word for him! Wasn’t that what he used to call Xu Chaomu?!
He was displeased and looked at her coldly.
Having no choice, Xu Chaomu used her other hand to pry his away.
It took a lot of effort, but the man finally relented.
She scooped up a bite of tiramisu and brought it to his mouth: “Eat up.”
Shen Chi was not about to eat it. He just wanted to see her not angry anymore, to feel a sense of relief. He snatched the spoon from her hand, refusing to be fed, and ate it himself.
Xu Chaomu laughed, knowing how awkward he could be at times, but she still adored him.
As long as he wasn’t really mad at her, she would be very happy.
So, she stared at him entranced for a while longer.
He ate gracefully, his white shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows, his movements deliberate and steady.
Xu Chaomu couldn’t help herself anymore, couldn’t resist! She scooted closer, wrapped her arms around his neck, and planted a kiss on him.
Shen Chi froze momentarily, but soon, a slight curve formed at the corner of his mouth.
However, Shen Chi maintained his composure and continued his lunch.
A few tables over, disdainful glances were cast their way, whispering, “These young couples nowadays, they don’t know how to restrain themselves, always cuddling and hugging in public places.”
Xu Chaomu pushed Shen Chi and snorted, “They’re talking about you.”
Shen Chi was stern and impassive, “Who’s your young couple?”
“If you’re not my young lover, then who is? Don’t tell me you have a mistress? I don’t care, if you do, I’m taking the baby and running away from home.”
“You’re the young one, I’m not,” Shen Chi stated matter-of-factly.
After that, he continued with his meal.
Meanwhile, Xu Chaomu was left dumbfounded, thinking, is it really okay for him to make such suggestive remarks so openly?! And so seriously at that!
“Shen Chi, you’re truly shameless, spouting such filth. Who did you learn this from? Mind your influence, will you? Don’t ruin my innocent baby,” Xu Chaomu huffed.
“Hmm?” Shen Chi turned and gave her a faint look, “What are you thinking?”
“What am I thinking? Aren’t you alluding to that certain meaning?! And asking me what I’m thinking, how shameless. Are all men as shameless as you are? Have you been to******** often?” Xu Chaomu scolded.
“I said you’re young, I’m not, what’s the problem?” Shen Chi asked calmly.
“…”
“Any problem?” Shen Chi asked again.
“…”
This time, it was Xu Chaomu who looked as if she’d been hit by a truck.
That shameless man, he obviously didn’t mean it that way!
“Xu Chaomu, it turns out you’re not so innocent after all. I had underestimated you,” Shen Chi looked at her coolly.
Xu Chaomu put her hand to her forehead… Could she pretend she didn’t know Shen Chi? This wolf who was cunning to the core.
“Eat your food!” Shen Chi glared at her, “Finish and get back to work, no slacking. Next time we go out for a nice meal, remember to bring your husband along. Eating together as a family of three is more heartwarming.”
Xu Chaomu lay her head on the table. Okay, she admitted that his mention of “eating as a family of three is more heartwarming” struck a chord in her heart.
She had never experienced eating together as one family since she was a child. She was grateful to Shen Chi, not only for meeting him but also for giving her a home.
At home, there was him, her, and a little baby.
Suddenly, she entertained the thought that if having a baby… didn’t hurt so much, maybe she could consider having another one, or… two?
No, no, no, she quickly suppressed the thought, not wanting to give Shen Chi that satisfaction.
