If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1278: Did I Hurt You?

"..." Xu Chaomu fell silent. Do you really have to be so shameless?

"Xu Chaomu, I have to say, you’re quite awful in bed," Shen Chi added another stab.

"Get lost!" Xu Chaomu got angry. This is just like saying a man is incompetent, you know?!

"But I like it as long as I’m happy." Shen Chi curved his lips, gently caressing her chin, "Just don’t scratch me when you’re feeling good, and also, a louder voice would be even better, I would like that more."

Xu Chaomu’s face turned red and she lifted her leg trying to kick him.

But she was pressed down firmly by him and couldn’t move at all, so she could only push him with her hands!

"Shen Chi, get the hell away from me! If you find me unsatisfactory, go find some other woman! Also, how do you know I’m not good? Have you slept with many other women?!"

Shen Chi laughed, his face full of ambiguous amusement: "Good or not, I’ll know after trying it out. No comparison necessary."

"Shen Chi, when did I not realize you were so sleazy?!" Xu Chaomu regretted deeply, "I used to think you were a male god, so high and mighty, like the stars, only to be looked up to."

"Isn’t it the same now? I am still high and mighty."

Having said that, Shen Chi’s body pressed down even more, immobilizing her!

"..." Xu Chaomu’s mouth twitched.

The "high and mighty" they were talking about were clearly not the same thing! They were not on the same wavelength at all!

"Shen Chi, can I ask you a private question?" Xu Chaomu blinked, her little hand sliding down his neck and sneaking under his collar, "That time on our wedding anniversary the year before last, was it your first time?"

"What first time?" Shen Chi pretended not to understand and raised an eyebrow.

"Don’t play dumb!" Xu Chaomu huffed, "You’ve become pure now?"

"Didn’t you ask this question before?"

"..." Xu Chaomu paused, oh, she seems to have asked it the year before.

"Now, it’s my turn to ask you, was that your first time?" Shen Chi pressed on her.

In the past, he would definitely not have asked. But this time is different, from the moment she started to talk to him about it, he understood something.

To this moment, his heart was filled with hidden turmoil, yet he did not betray a single hint of it.

If it hadn’t been Xu Chaomu that night, she wouldn’t be joking with him so lightly right now.

This girl was somebody he had watched grow up; her little schemes couldn’t escape his eyes.

Thinking about this, his heart started beating faster.

His palm was warm, and he grabbed her hand firmly.

Palm to palm, their hearts seemingly drew even closer.

"..." Xu Chaomu did not expect him to ask this; he had never asked her before because he had assumed that she had slept with other men and even had a child.

"Speak," he said in a low voice.

"Yes," Xu Chaomu pursed her lips, not denying it.

That night, he was utterly ruthless, causing her pain all night long. Dammit, it was her first time!

But with the surveillance footage stolen, she couldn’t prove anything to him.

"Did I... hurt you?" Shen Chi bent down, whispering softly in her ear.

His hot breath brushed by, Xu Chaomu’s ears heated up, and without thinking, her little hand scratched the palm of his hand: "You’re simply not human, you took me so many times in one night, and I was still..."

Before she could finish, Xu Chaomu suddenly covered her mouth!

Damn, Shen Chi was testing her!

Damn it, she just spilled the beans!

Shen Chi hooks his lips, the corners lifting slightly, as expected...

His eyes squint, a dangerous aura emanating from him.

He leans down, his lips grazing her milk-pure skin, his tone both ambiguous and domineering: "Xu Chaomu, how long were you planning to hide this from me?"

"When did you find out?"

"Tonight."

"Okay, okay, I wasn’t planning to hide it from you..."

Xu Chaomu stammers, swallowing nervously, a little scared.

"Tell me, when did you find out? Was it that night, you knew it was me? Took advantage of me being drunk, and stubbornly denied it? Huh?"

Shen Chi’s presence grows increasingly menacing, especially his narrowed eyes, making her shiver uncontrollably.

She’s still pinned down on the carpet by him, unable to move.

"No, no..." Xu Chaomu says meekly like a little lamb, "It was after I moved into the Shen Family’s home that I found out. That night, I was drunk too, just a tiny bit more lucid than you, just a tiny bit..."

"What do you mean by a tiny bit more lucid?!"

"Because the man’s odor was identical to yours, I’ve been with you day and night for eight years, I could tell. Later, I had a friend pull some strings to check the hotel surveillance footage!" Xu Chaomu explained, "And you were completely oblivious, are you an idiot?"

"Try being dead drunk and drugged by someone!" Shen Chi glares at her.

"Goddamn, how much drugs were you on that night? You nearly killed me with your antics, do you know that? It was my first time!"

"I don’t remember anything, only that the woman kept screaming in pain..."

"Get lost!" Xu Chaomu kicks him again.

"I also remember the woman’s screams being pretty loud, at least much louder than now."

"Shen Chi, bastard, sleazebag!" Xu Chaomu kicks him yet again.

"What about the hotel surveillance footage?" Shen Chi holds down her foot, preventing her from moving, his expression turning serious and earnest.

Xu Chaomu pouts and recounts the incident with the video to Shen Chi. She told him how the footage ended up lost and that she never found it.

After listening, Shen Chi falls silent for a while.

"Do you think I’m lying to you?" Xu Chaomu bats her eyelashes.

After all, this story sounds like a fantasy, such a coincidence, would he believe it?

"I believe you."

"Weren’t you always convinced I was deceiving you? Thinking I was just consoling you? When I was pregnant, I said Xiaobao was your son, but you didn’t believe me, insisted I was just trying to make you feel better." Xu Chaomu brings up the past grievances.

"... "Now it’s Shen Chi’s turn to fall silent.

"Honestly, I really hated you at that time; nothing you said was believable. I planned to take off with my son, or have him call you ’Uncle Four’ for the rest of your life." Xu Chaomu speaks bluntly.

"No one would believe that in my position." Shen Chi says.

"You just believe in yourself." Xu Chaomu purses her lips.

"So, Xu Chaomu, before you came back to the country and saw me, and the surveillance footage, you always thought it was Nie Chenglang that night?" Shen Chi asks.

Xu Chaomu nods: "Yes, I woke up early, Chenglang came over, and he confessed to me. He actually did it because he was afraid I’d be heartbroken..."

"He truly loves you, then."

"That’s why I’m saying, you can’t lay a finger on him."

"Hmm." Shen Chi snorts coldly, neither confirming nor denying, "For your sake, I won’t touch him."

"If you hadn’t caught me at the engagement party when I returned to the country, I would probably be married to Chenglang by now." Xu Chaomu says.
