If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1763: Harmony at Home, All Is Well (1)

Chapter 1763: Chapter 1763: Harmony at Home, All Is Well (1)

When Qixi Festival arrived, it was already midsummer.

The greenery was lush all around, and the air was filled with an endless sultriness.

The day before the Qixi Festival, it rained, leaving everything damp, and a faint fresh scent emanated from the soil.

"Honey, what gift did you prepare for me today?"

Early in the morning of Qixi, Xu Chaomu pinned Shen Chi down and wouldn’t let him get out of bed, demanding a gift.

Shen Chi opened his eyes slightly, casually saying, "I forgot."

"Hmm? Forgot?" Xu Chaomu refused to let it go, "Really forgot?"

"Sorry, I really did forget. I’ll go out and buy you something later."

"Forget it, I don’t want it anymore."

Xu Chaomu let him go, unhappily jumping out of bed.

What’s the point of a requested gift? It’s better not to have one.

On such an important day, he actually forgot to get her a gift.

"Don’t worry, I’ll go out and get you something later," Shen Chi called out deliberately.

But Xu Chaomu went into the bathroom, ignoring him, very angry!

Shen Chi curled his lips; although he wasn’t a particularly sentimental person, he still remembered to buy gifts for important occasions like Qixi and Valentine’s Day.

Of course, this time would be no exception.

Xu Chaomu thought Shen Chi had really forgotten and was too mad to speak to him; she went downstairs alone after washing up.

"Good morning, Mom." Xiaobao and Erbao were already downstairs.

The two of them sat side by side, looking at Xu Chaomu with big eyes.

As soon as Xu Chaomu saw her obedient sons, her anger dissipated, "Good morning."

"Mom, I made breakfast for you." Xiaobao pointed to the snacks on the dining table.

"Hmm?" Xu Chaomu didn’t believe it, "You made this? How did you do it? You’re so clever."

"It was simple, Butler Ling taught me, and I learned it." Xiaobao said.

The butler laughed beside him, "Yes, Fourth Young Madam, Young Master made these snacks for you with his own hands, I can vouch for it. Young Master is very smart; I taught him, and he picked it up."

"Thank you, baby." Xu Chaomu beamed with joy.

Although the snacks didn’t look very attractive, they smelled wonderful.

"Mom, there’s me too." Erbao raised his hand, "I squeezed you some orange juice. I heard it’s good for beauty and health."

Xu Chaomu laughed and walked over to pinch his cheek, "How old are you to be thinking about beauty and health?"

"I heard it." Erbao said, "My deskmate Mei said her mom drinks orange juice every day, for beauty and health."

"Thank you too, Erbao." Xu Chaomu sat down happily.

She felt that compared to her sons, Shen Chi was simply outmatched.

"Mom, you look very pretty today." Xiaobao watched Xu Chaomu with joy.

Xu Chaomu took a look at herself, huh? Really pretty?

"Yes, Mom is very pretty today; will she get snatched away when she goes out later?" Erbao looked worried.

Xu Chaomu laughed, "No, Mom can’t bear to leave you."

"Mom, try the snacks I made." Xiaobao looked at Xu Chaomu sincerely.

"Okay!" Xu Chaomu was sure to eat them.

She tasted one, finding the flavor quite good, with a refreshing strawberry filling.

"Mom, there are many flavors; guess them all." Xiaobao looked at Xu Chaomu with anticipation.

"You guys eat too," Xu Chaomu said.

"Okay!"

"This one’s mango-flavored, and this one’s apple-flavored." Xu Chaomu took a bite and reported each flavor.

The mini snacks were cute and delicious.

Xu Chaomu expressed that even though Shen Chi didn’t give her a gift, she could feel the love from her sons.

It turns out that all the usual affection wasn’t in vain...

Just as Xu Chaomu was about to pick up a snack with her fork, Shen Chi leaned over, grabbed her wrist, and brought the snack to his own mouth.

"Hmm, this one’s blueberry-flavored," Shen Chi said.

"Dad, you’re shameless; this is meant for Mom," Xiaobao protested.

"Did you hear that," Xu Chaomu snorted coldly.

"Then what did you make for Dad?" Shen Chi looked at him.

"Nothing," Xiaobao spread his hands.

"Fine, don’t ask me how to woo girls in the future," Shen Chi said indifferently.

"Dad, my snacks are all yours; they’re all yours." Xiaobao fawningly pleased Shen Chi.

"That’s more like it," Shen Chi said as he took Xiaobao’s plate without hesitation.

"You gave your snacks to him, so what will you eat?" Xu Chaomu protested discontentedly.

Xiaobao quickly said, "I’ll drink porridge, just porridge; I suddenly really want to drink white porridge today."

Shen Chi curled his lips, "This child can be taught." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

As the family sat together for breakfast, Xu Chaomu complained, "Shen Chi, what do you usually talk about when you chat with Xiaobao? Teaching him how to woo girls?"

"No, I don’t admit to that," Shen Chi immediately said.

"I don’t admit to it either," Xiaobao added.

"A pair of scoundrels," Xu Chaomu mocked them.

Xu Chaomu finished eating first, grabbed her handbag, and waved at Xiaobao and Erbao, "Study well with your teacher later, got it?"

"Got it!" Xiaobao and Erbao said in unison.

"Okay! Mom’s off to work now!"

Xu Chaomu was still happy inside because this time in the final exams, both kids scored first in their class.

Especially Xiaobao, who made significant progress, both she and Shen Chi were very pleased.

Xu Chaomu decided to take them on a trip in a few days as a reward for their achievements.

As soon as Xu Chaomu left, Xiaobao blinked and looked at Shen Chi.

Shen Chi finished his breakfast elegantly, sipping coffee while waiting for Xiaobao to speak.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before Xiaobao couldn’t hold it in and said sneakily, "Old Shen, Mom was really happy today."

Last night, Shen Chi had called him and his brother into the bedroom, deliberately avoiding Xu Chaomu.

Shen Chi had them make breakfast for Xu Chaomu themselves; initially, they hesitated, thinking they couldn’t do it, but under Shen Chi’s coaxing and threats, they complied.

"Hmm," Shen Chi replied.

"Then Old Shen, you promised to take us to Disneyland; don’t go back on your word."

"We’ll see tonight. What’s the rush?" Shen Chi set down his cup, calmly glancing at Xiaobao.

"Don’t worry, we’ll definitely cooperate with you just for Disneyland." Xiaobao patted his chest, vowing confidently.

Shen Chi twitched the corner of his mouth, "Are you guys just doing this for Disneyland?!"

"No, no, no." Erbao waved his hands, "We’re doing this for Mom’s happiness and Dad’s joy. Seeing you happy makes us happy too!"

Shen Chi glanced at Erbao, this little sycophant was even more crafty.

Both were full of joy; just thinking about going to the long-awaited Disneyland made them delighted!

"Alright, don’t add dramas for yourselves; you have nothing to do during the day, just follow the teacher and learn well," Shen Chi said.

"Dad, will you still quiz us on our lessons tonight?" Xiaobao looked at Shen Chi with pitiful eyes.

"Depends on my mood."

"Dad will surely be in a great mood!" Xiaobao flattered.

"Enough, you’ve overacted," Shen Chi snorted coldly.
