If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 813 - : Shen Chi, What Is Your Attitude?

Chapter 813: Chapter 813: Shen Chi, What Is Your Attitude?

Xu Chaomu hurriedly took a bath and paced anxiously around the bedroom.

By half-past nine, Xu Chaomu couldn’t set her mind at ease and went downstairs in her pajamas.

To her shock, Shen Chi had disappeared!

He was just taking a bath; where could Shen Chi have gone?!

“Ling Butler, Ling Butler!” Xu Chaomu called out.

Soon, Ling Butler came through the living room door, “Chaomu, I’m here.”

“Where’s Shen Chi? He was just in the living room.” Xu Chaomu looked around and didn’t see Shen Chi anywhere, only his laptop remained on the table.

Ling Butler said, “The young master left just a moment ago. It seems he went to the Li Family.”

“So late to the Li Family?”

“Yes, apparently Young Master Li needed his help with something, probably about tomorrow’s wedding.” Ling Butler continued, “Weddings are a big deal, all the details need to be meticulous, so he might have gone to ask for the young master’s help.”

“I see,” Xu Chaomu scoffed.

“Chaomu, don’t worry, the young master should be back soon. You should head to bed early and not stay up late. Would you like me to make you a cup of milk?”

“No need, thank you, Butler.”

Having said that, Xu Chaomu walked upstairs with a grim face.

Ling Butler was a bit confused—was Xu Chaomu angry? But then again, it was within reason; after all, Xu Chaomu’s good friend was Li Beiting’s ex-girlfriend…

With a sigh in his heart, Ling Butler also silently left.

A surge of resentment built up inside Xu Chaomu; she had just asked Shen Chi to check on Yu Weiwei, could it be that he had forgotten?

Haha, going to the Li Family to help…

He seemed to take that matter to heart.

Xu Chaomu tried calling Yu Weiwei several times but no one answered. The text messages she sent to Yu Weiwei also went unreplied.

What was up with this girl?

But if it was Shen Chi getting married tomorrow, she would probably disappear tonight as well… It was only natural.

Xu Chaomu was extremely worried about Yu Weiwei. The girl had no one to take care of her in C City or to share her worries with.

This thought made Xu Chaomu feel all the more that she couldn’t abandon Yu Weiwei—they were friends for many years!

Just like the day Li Beiting got engaged when Yu Weiwei was so drunk. If there had been no one by her side, might she have rushed to a bar in a moment of impulse, or to a hospital?

Xu Chaomu shuddered at the thought and quickly changed out of her pajamas, putting on a shirt and an overcoat.

She was going to find Yu Weiwei.

But, as soon as she stepped out of the living room, she was stopped by Ling Butler, “Chaomu, where are you going so late at night?”

“I’m stepping out for a bit,” said Xu Chaomu.

“The young master told me to make sure you rest well at home,” Ling Butler said, feeling quite troubled.

In this house, the young master’s orders were not to be disobeyed.

“Do we have to listen to everything he says?” Xu Chaomu felt a twinge of anger; he had promised to help her get in touch with Yu Weiwei, but he had disappeared himself.

“It’s late, and the young master is looking out for your best interest. It’s too dangerous for you to go out alone at night,” Ling Butler tried to persuade her.

“Then find someone to accompany me out,” Xu Chaomu was still angry.

With that, she pushed past Ling Butler, intending to walk to the garage.

At this hour, it was very difficult to get a taxi in Jinxiu Tianxia, so she had no choice but to drive herself.

“Chaomu, the garage is locked,” Ling Butler said helplessly.

The young master had ordered her to keep a close eye on Xu Chaomu and not to allow her to go out.

Xu Chaomu stood there, stunned, then gritted her teeth and fumed, “Shen Chi, you’re inhuman!”

She picked up her phone and dialed Shen Chi’s number.

The evening breeze outside was a bit chilly, Xu Chaomu stood at the bottom of the steps, gazing at the scenery of the villa district. Not far away, the Li Family’s home was brightly lit. Shen Chi and Li Beiting were probably colluding together, likely inside the Li residence.

“Shen Chi, where are you?” Xu Chaomu made a call.

“Outside,” Shen Chi replied indifferently.

“I asked you to find Yu Weiwei, have you? If you don’t want to look for her, don’t give me the runaround. I’ll go find her myself!” Xu Chaomu rattled off.

“She’s at the research institute, she’s fine,” Shen Chi said.

“What is she doing at the research institute? Since she’s there, then I’ll go see her. Have someone open the garage door.”

“I won’t let you go.”

“Shen Chi, you traitor, scoundrel! Fine then, keep scheming with Li Beiting. Don’t bother seeing me again, yes, I won’t see you either! You’d better bring a girlfriend home tomorrow and then we can say goodbye,” Xu Chaomu said.

“Stop it, hanging up,” Shen Chi said with a lackluster tone.

“Hey, Shen Chi, Shen Chi!”

But without another word, Shen Chi had already hung up the phone.

Xu Chaomu held her phone, utterly helpless and out of options, she could only say to her phone, “Dammit, Shen Chi, what an attitude!”

The butler advised, “Chaomu, it’s chilly outside. Come in, don’t catch a cold.”

“Let me know when Shen Chi comes back,” Xu Chaomu said angrily.

“Okay.”

With no alternative, Xu Chaomu had to return to the Shen Family home. She knew that if Shen Chi didn’t want her to go out, then he had a thousand and one ways to stop her.

But now, no matter how she tried, she couldn’t get through to Yu Weiwei’s phone.

Thankfully, Shen Chi had told her that Yu Weiwei was in the research institute, which gave her a bit of relief.

Li Beiting was getting married tomorrow, and Yu Weiwei must have known, so she was working overnight in the research institute to numb herself.

Back in her bedroom, Xu Chaomu couldn’t rest easy and dialed Yu Weiwei’s number again, but still, there was no answer.

Xu Chaomu was very worried and remained so, without changing her clothes, she fell asleep at her desk in the middle of the night.

In the night, she had a nightmare that Yu Weiwei, feeling life was unbearable, went to the hospital to terminate her pregnancy.

Startled, she awoke and looked up to see it was late at night; the world outside was quiet and clear as water, with not a sound to be heard.

Even the slightest movement would cause the faint sound of the chair scraping against the floor.

She glanced at the wall clock; it was two-thirty.

She put on a coat, opening the door to her bedroom.

The Shen house was very quiet. She first went to Shen Chi’s room next door and knocked a few times, but no one responded.

He hadn’t returned all night?

That made sense, the Li Family must be extremely busy, and he needed to stay up all night to help.

Xu Chaomu snorted coldly and returned to her bedroom. She glanced at her phone; Yu Weiwei hadn’t returned her call.

It was the middle of the night, and with no actions left to take, she could only reluctantly close her room door and lie down on the bed.

She set her alarm for six in the morning.

By six o’clock, the sky was already bright, with a hazy mist hanging in the air. The wind blew, and the mist drifted everywhere.

Xu Chaomu glanced at her phone; there were no callbacks from Yu Weiwei or Shen Chi.

She felt a little sad. On the day of Li Beiting’s wedding, she couldn’t be by Yu Weiwei’s side. Yu Weiwei must be so disappointed.

She quickly got dressed, finished her washing up, and ran downstairs.

“Chaomu.” The butler was the first to see her, quite surprised, as it was only six in the morning.

“Did Shen Chi not come back last night?” Xu Chaomu asked.

“Yes, I heard that the Li Family was quite busy, the fourth young master must still be helping out.”
