If You Could Hear My Heart

This sudden alarm forced Shen Chi to frown and open his eyes, “What is it?”

“Did you swap out my clothes?” she exclaimed, looking as if she had been violated. And the fact was, she really had been!

“Mhm.”

“Who gave you permission to change my clothes? Shen Chi, you’re taking advantage of me!” Xu Chaomu could hardly imagine what this beast did while she was unconscious!

“Are you even worth taking advantage of?” Shen Chi looked at her with disdain and disgust, his gaze indecently falling on her chest.

Xu Chaomu hurriedly crossed her arms over her chest, suddenly recalling his comment about her being flat-chested. Right, someone vulgar like him only liked women with larger busts!

“Shen Chi! You need to take responsibility!” Xu Chaomu said with moral indignation.

“So, what should we do? Seen what should’ve been seen, and also what shouldn’t have been seen. What do you want then?” Shen Chi was remarkably unfazed.

God, this man is acting smug even after getting his way, utterly punch-worthy!

Who is Xu Chaomu? She’s a female hooligan. Now, as a hooligan, having been taken advantage of by another, she has to get even!

Xu Chaomu’s little claws reached out for Shen Chi, as she clambered over to the passenger seat and lunged at him.

“You saw me, I have to see you in return, right? Big Brother, isn’t that so?

What’s that saying… do unto others, whatever…?”

Black lines ran down Shen Chi’s face, the corner of his mouth twitching.

Xu Chaomu’s hands already began to pull at Shen Chi’s shirt, expertly starting with the top button!

A fire within Shen Chi was stirred by her actions; this was the second time Xu Chaomu was unbuttoning his shirt!

“Stop it!” he barked, brows furrowing deeply.

“You’re not taking responsibility, so what’s wrong with letting me have a look?” Xu Chaomu refused to let go.

Damn it, he had already seen her twice, both times “seen what should and shouldn’t have been seen,” yet she didn’t even know what he looked like shirtless!

This isn’t fair play at all!

Just as she had undone the top button of Shen Chi’s shirt, he firmly grasped her wrist.

“0w, it hurts, let go. If you think I’m clumsy, then why don’t you do it yourself…” Xu Chaomu’s face twisted in pain.

This man was too strong; she was no match for him.

“Alright then,” Shen Chi’s lips curled into a smirk, “Do you really want me to unbutton it myself?”

“What else? If you won’t let me touch, then you unbutton and let me have a look. Once that’s done, we’ll be even, and I won’t hold you responsible!” Xu Chaomu wouldn’t stop talking.

“Remember, those are your words.” A mischievous smile spread across his lips.

Shen Chi held her small hand tightly with one hand and went for her shirt buttons with the other.

With a flick of his finger, a button popped open, exposing Xu Chaomu’s snow-white neck to the car’s dim yellow light!

“Shen Chi, you trickster! Have you no shame!”

Xu Chaomu hadn’t anticipated this move at all. How dare he! How could he start undressing her!

Unable to break free from his grasp, she twisted and turned, trying to escape him.

The way she lay on top of Shen Chi was particularly suggestive, and coupled with her movements, it was a good thing no one was outside the car, as even Shen Chi felt it was embarrassing.

The doused flame was ignited once again. Shen Chi’s throat moved, his eyes filled with desire.

He asked in a hoarse voice, “Still want to keep unbuttoning?”

“Let go of your hand, and let’s talk properly…” Xu Chaomu was at her wit’s end.

Shen Chi didn’t prolong the tussle; with a loosened grip, Xu Chaomu scrambled off him.

She quickly buttoned up her shirt, looking at Shen Chi defensively. When had this man become so shameless?

Shen Chi gazed at her, her face flushed with anger, still puffing at him. As their eyes met, Xu Chaomu, for some reason, saw a hint of… tenderness in his eyes?

She sat down, glancing at him, “Big Brother, why didn’t you come to pick me up tonight?”

“The car had some problems,” Shen Chi replied flatly, lying back in his seat.

“Oh, I thought you didn’t want me anymore and had gone off to be intimate with Miss Bai.”

“She’s my fiancée, how is it that I can’t be intimate with her?” Shen Chi turned his head, leisurely looking at her.

“Of course you can, she is your fiancée after all. I wish you a hundred years of happiness together; don’t forget to have your child call me auntie. But look at you two, haven’t even got your marriage certificate yet, right? Better to restrain yourself a bit.”

Xu Chaomu wasn’t in the best of moods; she really disliked Shen Chi at times like these.

He really had absolutely no feelings for her.

“Are you jealous?” Shen Chi glanced at her.

“Big Brother, you have Miss Bai, I have my boyfriend. You tell me, what do I have to be jealous about? You are my dearest Big Brother, and I am your little sister, right?” Xu Chaomu said deliberately.

“Mhm.” Shen Chi just responded indifferently.

Damn it, Xu Chaomu almost lost her composure again. What did that “Mhm” mean?

Stay calm, stay calm, don’t stoop to Shen Chi’s level.

If she had stooped to his level, she would have been infuriated many times over by now.

The rain outside the window continued to pour. Xu Chaomu turned away, no longer looking at Shen Chi. The more she looked, the angrier she got; better to watch the raging storm.

However, she suddenly remembered something important — her backpack…

Her little wooden puppet was still in there!

She remembered being thrown out, and her backpack being thrown as well. It must be not far from here!

She pulled hard at the car door, and as soon as it opened, she ran into the rain!

“Xu Chaomu! Where are you going?” Shen Chi reacted quickly, yelled out, and also leaped out of the car.

He thought she might be sulking. With the weather like this, it was certainly no joke. If a rock were to fall from the mountain, it wouldn’t just result in a bump on the head!

Xu Chaomu had underestimated the heavy rain; within moments of running out, she was soaked through.

Guided by the car headlights, she searched nearby, but all around were mud, stones, leaves, and branches — no sign of her backpack!

Shen Chi approached and enveloped her in his arms, carrying her back toward the car!

“Are you out of your mind? Get in the car!” His domineering tone brooked no dissent.

He held her tightly, forcefully opened the car door, and tossed her in.

After finally wrangling her inside, he got into the car, pressed a button, and the car door wouldn’t open anymore.

“Have you lost your mind?” Shen Chi shot her a cold glance.

Xu Chaomu was a mess, her hair also damp. Fortunately, it wasn’t too bad.

“I just wanted my backpack, I’m so into my studies after all,” Xu Chaomu pouted.

Shen Chi laughed coldly, “If you were into studying, the sun would rise from the west.”

‘ Stay calm, stay calm, Xu Chaomu told herself, despite seething with rage, she reminded herself to resist taking Shen Chi’s bait..
