If You Could Hear My Heart

“Miss Bai, you should keep your voice down, don’t let President Shen hear you. After all, Miss Xu is President Shen’s most beloved sister,” Old Cheng always maintained a neutral attitude.

“Old Cheng, do you think I’m eight years old?” Bai Man scoffed.

“I’ve said what I needed to say. Miss Bai, you should know better than me that

President Shen does not like people who are immature.”

“Fine… you’re ruthless,” Bai Man’s delicate melon-seed face contorted.

Alright, if they won’t let her in, she’ll wait.

Bai Man turned arrogantly and got into her sports car, closing the doors and windows, trying hard to calm herself down.

Old Cheng was right, Shen Chi didn’t like people who were immature, and wasn’t the reason she had been able to stay by his side also because she was mature enough?

But her mind was still in chaos. In that case, she had seen a lot of Xu Chaomu’s immaturity in the Shen Family these past few days, but she hadn’t seen Shen Chi show any dislike for Xu Chaomu.

She didn’t believe the emotions she had shared with Shen Chi over so many years could be so fragile.

After all, everyone in this circle said that she was the one Shen Chi loved the most.

Hopefully, she was just overthinking it.

In the dental clinic, the doctor finished the last step of the procedure, then put away his instruments and took off his gloves.

“All done, the cavity has been dealt with, so you won’t feel any more pain. Be careful with your diet these next few days, keep it light. I will prescribe some medicine; remember to take it on time. Also, try to consume less sugary food in the future,” the doctor advised.

Xu Chaomu was half dead already, even with the anesthesia, she had shed tears all over her face.

It still hurts so much!

She clung to Shen Chi’s hand and wouldn’t let go. Shen Chi laughed, “Did you hear that? Eat less sugary food in the future.”

Xu Chaomu couldn’t speak, so she just nodded her head.

There is a kind of torture in this world that’s called being unable to speak; it’s unbearable!

Shen Chi was rarely able to see Xu Chaomu being so obedient, so he added, “And argue with me less from now on.”

Why can’t I argue with you! If you’re wrong, should I just listen and obey? Besides, you’re the one who’s more unreasonable most of the time!

Xu Chaomu wanted to roar, but since she couldn’t speak, she could only glare at Shen Chi to express her discontent.

This shameless Shen Chi was taking advantage of her!

After the doctor wrote the prescription, Shen Chi went with Xu Chaomu to get the medication. She held on to his arm, and he did not refuse.

She was naturally carefree, and after having her tooth pulled, she had forgotten all about Li Beiting’s words.

When Shen Chi took Xu Chaomu out of the hospital, it was already past seven in the morning. Bai Man’s car was still parked at the entrance of the building, and she felt like her patience was nearly exhausted!

However, when she saw Xu Chaomu coming out with her arm hooked around Shen Chi’s, she chose to continue persevering.

“President Shen, Miss Bai is over there,” Old Cheng whispered.

Shen Chi barely lifted an eyelid, and sure enough, Bai Man was sitting in her car, looking in his direction.

Xu Chaomu suddenly remembered Li Beiting’s words and immediately let go of Shen Chi.

Bai Man got out of the car, reining in any superfluous expressions, her tempting smile blooming as she took Shen Chi’s arm: “Why did you come to the hospital?”

“I brought Chaomu to get a tooth extraction,” Shen Chi said casually.

“Is it serious? Is it done?”

“It’s fine.’

“Are you still going to A City?” Bai Man asked cautiously.

“If we leave now, it’ll be too late.’

Anxiety flashed across Bai Man’s face. If Shen Chi didn’t go to A City, what about the contract? And the press conference?

She had planned to use this press conference to announce to the world that she was Shen Chi’s fiancée. Clearly, Shen Chi had not refused her.

But now this had happened…

“What should we do? This signing is very important for you. If it doesn’t happen, it will be a huge loss for the group!” Bai Man said.

Xu Chaomu didn’t understand what they were talking about; it seemed very profound.

“I have my own arrangements.”

There was not much disturbance on Shen Chi’s face; he didn’t say much to Bai Man anymore and instructed Old Cheng, “Take Chaomu home, I’ll head to the group.”

“Okay,” Old Cheng responded.

“Shen Chi, let me take you to the group! I happened to drive here,” Bai Man offered.

“No need.”

Bai Man didn’t dare say more. Once Shen Chi refused, she had no room for negotiation.

Shen Chi tossed the medicine to Xu Chaomu: “Take the medicine on time!”

Xu Chaomu nodded vigorously like a pecking chicken. This man changed his expression as quickly as the weather; just a moment ago in the clinic, he was quite kind to her, and now he had adopted another cold and icy face!

Shen Chi hailed a taxi on the roadside while Old Cheng was preparing to drive Xu Chaomu back home.

The rain continued to fall, leaving the ground wet. The day had dawned, and the hospital gradually became bustling, with doctors and patients coming and going with umbrellas.

Xu Chaomu felt as if it was all a dream, from being taken away last night to now, holding medicine under the corridor.

But at least, in the dream, there was him.

She had survived safely for now, but the problem was, when could she kiss him?

With his strong defenses, before she could even touch him, he would probably have rejected her fiercely.

Xu Chaomu sighed deeply; the task was challenging indeed!

“I just happened to be going back to the Shen Family, why not let me take Chaomu?” Bai Man suggested to Old Cheng.

Old Cheng expressed his thanks to Miss Bai, saying, “President Shen asked me to take Miss Xu home, I don’t dare to shirk.”

Xu Chaomu gave Old Cheng a thumbs up; she definitely didn’t want to take Bai Man’s car.

Unable to do much and unable to pull rank, Bai Man simply smiled: “Then let’s go together.”

“Of course, Miss Bai, please go ahead.”

Bai Man drove out of the hospital, with Old Cheng’s car following closely behind.

Xu Chaomu was tired as well and fell asleep as soon as she got into the car. She dreamt of her mother. It had been a long time since she last dreamt of her mother, and in the dream, she cried.

Her mother asked if she was doing well, and she kept nodding and saying she was doing fine.

Sometimes she wondered if being taken to the Shen Family was luck or misfortune.

In a daze, she dreamt the entire way until the car reached the Shen Family mansion. Seeing Xu Chaomu deep in slumber, Old Cheng didn’t wake her up.

After parking the car in the garage, he whispered to Butler Ling, “Miss Xu is asleep; let her rest for a while. She doesn’t need to go to classes today.”

Butler Ling nodded, and Old Cheng left the Shen Family.

When Xu Chaomu woke up, she felt refreshed, and her tooth ached much less, not really hurting anymore.

But as she rubbed her eyes, the person sitting in the driver’s seat had become Bai Man?

Bai Man was staring at her, her peach blossom eyes gleaming, lips slightly curved, as if laughing.

Xu Chaomu had to admit, a big star was indeed a big star, perfect from every angle; no matter how you looked, just beautiful. That fair face and those charming red lips, especially below the neckline, Xu Chaomu found most enviable.

It wasn’t clear in the magazines, but now that she’d met the real person, damn, it was even better than the pictures!

No wonder Yu Weiwei said that men liked women with large chests, because they felt great to the touch. The so-called large chests were just like Bai Man’s.

If she were a man, she would like that too! No wonder Shen Chi, that tacky man, looked at Bai Man so tenderly..
