If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 403 - : Old Friend Reunion

Chapter 403: Chapter 403: Old Friend Reunion

“I’m telling you, Shen Chi is really childish,” Xu Chaomu said as she started complaining to Mo Shui Fu on the phone.

“Childish?” Mo Shui Fu was hearing someone describe Shen Chi as childish for the first time.

Shen Chi, a person known for his maturity and rationality, was being called childish.

“Yeah, I’ll take the time to explain it to you in detail when I’m free. I have to expose his true colors, having him strut around playing the male god, deceiving young girls every day,” Xu Chaomu huffed.

Those young girls, the moment they saw Shen Chi on TV, looking like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, would cheer and get starry-eyed.

In reality, he was nothing but a beast, a childish ghost.

For instance, he would crawl from the sofa to her bed in the middle of the night, and when caught, he’d put on an innocent face, pretending to be the victim.

Mo Shui Fu couldn’t help but laugh, “You’ve destroyed your Shen family’s CEO’s image, be careful he might bully you when he gets back.”

“Wuu wuu, Shui Fu… if he dares to bully me, you have to stand by my side,” Xu Chaomu feigned crying.

“Of course, I’ll definitely stand by your side,” Mo Shui Fu said with a laugh, “But you know, the fourth young master wouldn’t bear to bully you.”

Xu Chaomu pouted, as if.

Shen Chi often bullied her, sometimes throwing personal attacks about her low IQ; sometimes stealing a kiss when she wasn’t paying attention; sometimes reaching out his ‘salty pig hand’ and groping her.

After he kissed and touched her, she surely couldn’t… kiss and touch back, could she?

Xu Chaomu spent nearly half an hour pouring out her troubles to Mo Shui Fu. Had the phone call not remained connected, Butler Ling would have suspected that Xu Chaomu was chatting up a pretty boy, they were laughing and talking so merrily.

After hanging up, Xu Chaomu was in a particularly good mood.

She hummed a tune as she went upstairs, searching for something nice to wear with great enthusiasm.

Shen Chi had already picked up the luggage she brought back from Paris for her, but that sly wolf had already inspected the suitcase for her.

The little gifts Nie Chenglang had given her were all taken by him.

Some of her own little purchases were also taken by him.

What was left in the suitcase were some clothes, books, daily necessities, and snacks.

There was even a notebook with a lock she had, and that pervert had taken it too—it was brand new!

She went through the suitcase and realized something was amiss—her clothes were missing too.

Sure enough, all those off-shoulder, strapless, backless, and ultra-short dresses were gone.

What remained were very conservative, traditional dresses and shirts.

Damn it!

Xu Chaomu was so annoyed she was twitching.

If only she had known, she would have packed a few boxes of birth control pills and condoms; but this grudge must be avenged to be a gentleman.

Xu Chaomu browsed through her options and eventually settled on a relatively nicer beige lace long dress.

She took off her pajamas, put on the long dress, and matched it with a pretty little handbag.

Her own clothes were always nicer than those Shen Chi bought, so much nicer.

And he always complained about her poor taste; his own taste was the worst.

She casually tied up her hair and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, looking quite nice.

After all, she had mixed in Paris for five years and studied design.

“Butler Ling, I’m going out shopping,” Xu Chaomu called out as she walked downstairs, swinging her handbag at Butler Ling who was finalizing some accounts.

Butler Ling took off his reading glasses and gave Xu Chaomu a look, wow, Xu Chaomu was really beautifully dressed today.

Hence, he became a bit more cautious.

“Madam Fourth Young Master, where are you going shopping? Do you want the Fourth Young Master to accompany you?”

“He’s busy with a thousand things every day, let’s not disturb him. I’ll just have a casual stroll. I’m quite familiar with C City, you don’t have to worry,” she replied.

“Chaomu, you haven’t been back for five years. I think it’s best to have the Fourth Young Master accompany you. C City has changed a lot in these five years. Plus, look at you, pregnant. It’s always good to have someone with you.”

“Then I’ll go find Weiwei and have her accompany me while shopping.”

“The Fourth Young Master could carry your bags and swipe his card for you,” Butler Ling insisted.

“Really, don’t tell him. With him by my side, I won’t even think about shopping,” she argued.

“Then… Madam Fourth Young Master, are you really going to find Weiwei?”

“Yep, if I can’t find her, I’ll just shop alone.”

“You’re not actually going shopping with another man?” Butler Ling probed.

“Definitely not,” Xu Chaomu twitched the corner of her mouth.

“That’s good, then go ahead, do you want Xiaogao to drive you?”

“No need, I’ll just take a taxi.”

After that, Xu Chaomu quickly ran out.

Butler Ling blinked and Xu Chaomu was gone, she sure ran fast. But then again, she probably felt really bored these days.

After leaving the Shen family residence, Xu Chaomu walked out of the luxurious Villa District, standing by the side of the road waiting for a taxi.

Taxis were hard to come by in this area, but she might spot an acquaintance who could give her a lift for a stretch, which wouldn’t be bad at all.

She stood under the shade of a tree with a parasol, idly fiddling with the bracelet on her wrist, bored.

She was reminded again of her lost rose necklace since coming to C City; she had no idea how she lost it, it was so baffling.

The necklace wasn’t a gift from Nie Chenglang, but something she bought with her own salary.

Even though it was only eight thousand yuan and Shen Chi had ridiculed her for it, it was still purchased with her hard-earned money, and she treasured it dearly.

While she was playing with her bracelet, she suddenly heard the “beep beep beep” of a car horn in front of her.

Xu Chaomu lifted her head and squinted into the distance, recognizing the familiar license plate number C9999! That flashy red Maserati!

Excited, thrilled!

Xu Chaomu ran over, right up to the driver’s side of the vehicle.

Although Li Beiting didn’t think much of her before and she eventually felt the same about him, she now thought that Li Beiting sincerely treated Shen Chi as a brother and had his best interests at heart.

The things she couldn’t understand before, she now realized were right. Li Beiting was correct.

She truly couldn’t help Shen Chi with anything, she even dragged him down.

Li Beiting’s insistence that she leave Shen Chi wasn’t wrong.

However, five years had passed, and the past had dissipated with the wind…

Now meeting an old friend again, she was still happy.

But, as she approached the Maserati, she froze.

Li Beiting indeed was in the driver’s seat, but there was a delicate, graceful young woman sitting in the passenger seat.

She rubbed her eyes, definitely not Yu Weiwei, absolutely not.

So who was she?

Li Beiting lowered the window and took off his sunglasses, “Chaomu, I heard you were back. I didn’t expect to run into you here today.”

Xu Chaomu nodded slightly, caught off-guard, somewhat regretful.

Compared to five years ago, Li Beiting looked more composed, and he didn’t smile much when he spoke, let alone exhibit the playful demeanor he had back then.

“Where are you off to? Want me to give you a lift?” Li Beiting asked again.

Xu Chaomu hesitated for quite a while before she finally came to her senses, “No trouble, I’ll just wait for a taxi here.”
