If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 928 - My Wife Shen Chi

Chapter 928 -928: My Wife, Shen Chi
All was quiet, they could even hear each other’s breathing.
Xu Chaomu closed her eyes and whispered, “I can’t sleep.”
“I can’t sleep either,” Shen Chi soothed her.
In fact, he had flown back from Los Angeles the night before, sleeping only in the car at night and for a while in the morning at Ji Shengxuan’s home, his head felt somewhat heavy.
But coaxing her was also a kind of happiness.
It had been many days since they had spoken so calmly together, and she had not acted spoiled with him for a long time.
“If you can’t sleep, why don’t you find a topic to talk to me about?” Xu Chaomu grumbled.
“I… you know, I’m not good at coming up with topics,” Shen Chi admitted.
“But at cocktail parties and balls, aren’t you always witty and eloquent?”
Shen Chi laughed. Was this girl being jealous, or was she really just jelly?
“You want to hear those superficial pleasantries? If you want to, I can say them to you right now. Like…” Shen Chi contemplated for a few seconds, “Miss Xu Chaomu, your gown today is exquisite, the highlight of the Paris fashion week’s spring collection, and it’s a limited edition. You and your boyfriend, Mr. Shen Chi, make a perfect pair, just like two halves of a whole.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Chaomu laughed.
So it turned out this man really knew how to coax people, no wonder women always said Shen Chi was irresistibly charming, elegant, and gentlemanly.
But in her eyes, Shen Chi was a fake gentleman.
“Shen Chi, you really have a way with words. No wonder young girls are throwing themselves at you to climb into your bed,” Xu Chaomu said jealously, “but in my eyes, you’re not like this, though… you never talked to me this way.”
“What do I look like in your eyes?” Shen Chi became curious.
“Scheming, venomous-tongued, and a pretender, never the same inside and out,” Xu Chaomu criticized, “A wolf in sheep’s clothing, a heart of a beast beneath a human face.”
Shen Chi laughed out loud but didn’t counter.
Xu Chaomu continued, “Are you always this gentle when you talk to other girls? You clearly talk to me like this…”
Xu Chaomu cleared her throat and imitated Shen Chi’s tone, “Xu Chaomu! Are you eating this food or not? If you’re not eating, get out right now!”
She nailed the imitation, impressing herself, and Shen Chi was laughing hard.
“You treat others differently than you do me,” Xu Chaomu muttered.
“If it were the same, would you now be able to be my wife, Shen Chi’s wife?” Shen Chi asked.
“…” Xu Chaomu was at a loss for words and fell silent all of a sudden.
However, Shen Chi’s words brought a warm breeze to her heart, and she bit her lip, secretly smiling in the dark.
She didn’t laugh out loud, otherwise… Shen Chi would again call her silly.
She was in a good mood today and did not hold Shen Chi’s cold attitude towards her against him; after all, whenever he turned cold on her, it was actually he who lost out.
Right now, she was still waiting for the little bun to come out, for the moment when the little bun would return to her side, and when that came, she would surely hold her baby tight.
Her baby would surely be very well-behaved and very beautiful.
By then, she could openly torment Shen Chi.
Shen Chi added, “Does your wound still hurt?”

“It hurts less when I listen to you talk,” Xu Chaomu said.
Shen Chi’s voice was deep and powerful, sexy and magnetic, like the sound of a rich cello, comforting to the heart.
She lay in bed and dared not move; in fact, it would still hurt if she did.
“Then I’ll talk, and you listen,” Shen Chi said, worrying that talking too much would tire her.
“Go ahead…”
“Let’s start with a couple of reasons why I disliked you back in the day,” Shen Chi deliberately said.
“Hmm?”
“Listen.” Shen Chi pretended to be serious, “First of all, I hate it most when you always think about sneaking over while I’m taking a bath, trying all sorts of ways to see me bathe.”
Xu Chaomu’s face turned red. Was she really that lecherous?
Seems like… maybe… yeah…
“I didn’t see anything…” Xu Chaomu muttered, “For eight whole years I saw nothing; your vigilance is really strong.”
“Who knows if you saw anything or not.” Shen Chi deliberately said.
“I really saw nothing!” Xu Chaomu argued with him.
Back then, she had climbed the window many times, peeped through the door cracks so many times, but to no avail. She didn’t even know what color underwear he liked to wear, all her scheming for eight years in vain.
“Fine, fine, fine, you saw nothing.” Shen Chi, worried she would get emotional and start arguing with him, continued…
Shen Chi went on to talk about the things he used to hate most about Xu Chaomu back in the day, but it wasn’t hate, it was nostalgia.
Now when he thought about these matters, he felt a warm feeling inside.
Xu Chaomu truly was a ray of sunlight in his life. Without her, his life wouldn’t be as full, and certainly not as warm.
In the empty room, Shen Chi’s deep and rich voice circulated in the air, sounding especially pleasant.
Xu Chaomu closed her eyes, quietly listening to him speaking of the past.
Sometimes she would steal a laugh, sometimes she would be moved.
Before long, with her eyes closed, she slowly fell asleep…
Seeing that Xu Chaomu remained quiet for a long time, Shen Chi knew she was asleep. He smiled and eventually closed his eyes to sleep as well.
But he wasn’t like Xu Chaomu; he always had a sense of unease lurking inside, scratching at his heart.
That night, Xu Chaomu slept very soundly.
Out of habit, as soon as dawn started to break, Shen Chi woke up, and his concerns kept him awake throughout the night, resulting in light sleep.
However, it wasn’t long before Xu Chaomu also woke up.
When she turned her head, she caught Shen Chi with his hands under his head, quietly gazing at the ceiling.
“Good morning.” Shen Chi said.
“How did you know I was awake?” Xu Chaomu asked.
She hadn’t spoken yet, just turned to glance at him, and besides, Shen Chi hadn’t moved, so how did he realize she was awake?
“Sharing a bed for so long, how could I not know?” Shen Chi said with feigned mystery.
His words held a hint of suggestiveness, making Xu Chaomu blush upon hearing them.
But why was she blushing? They already had a baby, and still blushing, pshaw.
Only then did Shen Chi turn his head to look at her, his lips curving slightly, silently watching her.
After an unknown stretch of time, Shen Chi got out of bed, after which he let the butler come in to take care of Xu Chaomu.
But none of them expected that at a little after eight in the morning, there would be a knock at the door.
“Thump thump thump.”
“Who is it?” The butler hurried over.
“Butler, it’s me.” A deep voice came through, tinged with a hint of weariness.
The people inside were all stunned. Shen Chi, however, was much more composed as he strode to the door and opened it himself.
Outside, it wasn’t anyone else, but Xiao Mo!
The morning fog must have been particularly thick, for a few specks of white frost clung to the strands of Xiao Mo’s hair, giving off a slightly damp impression.
He wore a mid-length black coat, standing in the doorway and nodding at Shen Chi: “President Shen.”
“Shouldn’t you be in Los Angeles?” Shen Chi asked indifferently.
