Chapter 953 -953: No Longer Wanting to Have a Second Child
Shen Chi knew all too well about it, and he had no intention of telling Ji Shengxuan.
She was someone who enjoyed a simple life, and although she had a life in the Shen Family, it was far from simple.
“So, Boss Ji, this afternoon, Ahuang is mine, are you okay with that?” Xu Chaomu said.
“Don’t let it scratch you, the thing may look tame now, but once it gets familiar with you, it starts to become annoying,” Ji Shengxuan looked at the cat with a face full of distaste.
“Really? How about you get a new one then? Mrs. Qian next door’s cat just had a few kittens, and I can go ask for one for you.”
“No matter how disdainful, it is still the one I raised,” Ji Shengxuan curled his lips in a smile.
Xu Chaomu knew he was too attached to give it up – these men, they always say one thing but have a different set in their heart.
Now considering it, Xiao Mo seemed to be more down-to-earth.
Xu Chaomu looked again at Ji Shengxuan – the man seemed even more mature than he was five years ago, and even a casual sweater could not hide his innate refinement, charm, elegance, and nobility.
“Come on, Chaomu, open up!” Yu Weiwei suddenly ran over, holding a small plate.
Before Xu Chaomu could clearly see what it was, Yu Weiwei had already tossed the food in her mouth.
“Eat up, it’s my homemade apple jam baked cheese slice, and here’s my freshly made cheese pudding!” Yu Weiwei was delighted.
Xu Chaomu blinked and took a bite.
No wonder she’d been watching Yu Weiwei bustling about at the dining table — she was making something.
“Is it good? Out of a hundred points, how many would you give me?” Yu Weiwei said.
Xu Chaomu tasted and nodded, “It’s delicious, I’ll give you ninety-nine points.”
“Give me a hundred, I won’t be proud,” Yu Weiwei laughed, feeding Xu Chaomu another spoonful of pudding.
Yu Weiwei wouldn’t let Xu Chaomu lift a finger, feeding her directly.
Ahuang in Xu Chaomu’s arms watched with envy, always eyeing Yu Weiwei’s plate.
Xu Chaomu stroked its head, signaling Yu Weiwei to feed it something.
So the fool Weiwei fed Xu Chaomu a bite, then Ahuang a bite.
Under the sunshine, the scene was harmonious. Weiwei, with her slightly protruding belly, was standing up, Xu Chaomu was sitting on a chair with a chubby Ahuang in her arms, and the delicate blue flowery plate in Weiwei’s hand was emitting a tempting aroma from the food on it.
When Shen Chi turned his head at that moment, he caught sight of this moment, feeling a mixture of emotions.
After the discharge from the hospital, no one spoke to Xu Chaomu about the child, nor did she bring it up herself.
Even butler Ling hadn’t said anything to Chaomu along the lines of “there will be more children.”
He and Xu Chaomu would have another baby, but this child was gone for good.
Putting that aside, everything at the moment was very heartwarming.
Shen Chi’s eyes constantly rested on Xu Chaomu’s face; whenever he saw her smile, a ripple would run through his heart.
“President Shen,” Li Beiting walked over and slung an arm over Shen Chi’s shoulder, turning him around, “do you realize your eyes right now could devastate any female creature?”
Shen Chi chuckled, “Is that jealousy I hear?”
“Though brothers are as close as limbs, I still have to be cautious – what if Yu Weiwei gets swept away by you?” Li Beiting said.
“Then that just shows you lack charm,” Shen Chi took a sip of red wine.
Li Beiting also sipped his wine, then pulled Shen Chi a little farther away.
Li Beiting lowered his voice, “What are your plans recently?”
“In a few days, I’m taking Chaomu on a vacation to Australia.”
“Yes, spend more time with her. It’s not easy for a woman to be pregnant.” Li Beiting didn’t continue his words after that.
“Mhm.”
Li Beiting then said a few more words to Shen Chi. He knew that Shen Chi was a smart man; he would understand a lot from just a hint.
Deep down, he still hoped that Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu would have another child. That way, Xu Chaomu could also recover from the grief of losing the first child much quicker.
But, he was afraid that Xu Chaomu might have been traumatized and was unwilling to have a second child.
While Li Beiting was talking with Shen Chi, the other few men were chatting about their topics beside the dining table.
At one o’clock in the afternoon, the luncheon was over, and the servants came to the lawn to clean up.
The weather was still very nice. Xu Chaomu felt a bit drowsy from basking in the sun, so she walked over to Shen Chi and said, “I’m going to take a nap. You entertain your friends well.”
“Sure, do you want me to take you back?”
“No need, it’s just a few steps away. If I can get lost here, that would really be a testament to my IQ,” Xu Chaomu said.
“As if your IQ isn’t a testament as it is now,” Shen Chi whispered with a chuckle.
“If I were a bit smarter, I wouldn’t even consider you,” Xu Chaomu looked at him disdainfully.
“Oh? And who would you consider then? Doctor Wen? Or perhaps Boss Ji?” Shen Chi asked deliberately.
“Boss Ji isn’t bad; I quite admire him,” Xu Chaomu responded playfully.

Upon hearing this, Shen Chi laughed out loud, “Ji Shengxuan, the man who looks good, has a high IQ, but when it comes to EQ…”
Shen Chi shrugged his shoulders and said no more.
Xu Chaomu glanced at Ji Shengxuan, who wasn’t far away, with confusion. Could it be that such a shrewd man like Boss Ji could make a mistake? Could it be that he had been scorned by the ‘low EQ’ Shen Chi?
“Alright, go rest, and remember to cover yourself well with the blanket,” Shen Chi said as he touched her head.
Xu Chaomu nodded, “Then I’ll be going back.”
After speaking, Xu Chaomu left the lawn and walked down a small path towards the living room.
Having sunbathed outside for so long, her nose began to show a faint sheen of sweat beads. The sun at this hour was even hotter, with no hint of winter at all.
The sides of the path were filled with wintersweet, which were in full bloom at this season.
Yellow flowers, one after another, clustered on the branches, emitting a delicate and charming fragrance.
Some of the flowers had fallen to the ground. Xu Chaomu picked a branch of wintersweet and stepped on the petals, enjoying the fragrance as she made her way back to the living room.
Upon returning to the living room, she placed the wintersweet she had picked into a clear glass vase, and instantly the room was filled with its fragrance.
“Pretty,” Xu Chaomu admired her own creation and praised.
“Xiaoyu, have the flower petals on the dining table been thrown away? If not, pick a few beautiful ones and place them in these spots,” Xu Chaomu instructed, pointing around the living room.
“Okay, Fourth Young Madam. I’ll go check,” Xiaoyu replied.
“Great, I’ll go upstairs,” Xu Chaomu said.
She proceeded to the spiral staircase, her steps becoming lighter.
But, just as she had reached halfway, Xiaoyu called out from downstairs, “Fourth Young Madam, Mr. Xiao is here to see you.”
Mr. Xiao? Xiao Mo?
Xu Chaomu frowned slightly, turned around, and walked back down from the stairs; indeed, it was Xiao Mo.
“Secretary Xiao, what brings you here?” Xu Chaomu was somewhat surprised.
