If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 515: Chapter 515: Shen Chi, You’re Ungrateful and Ruthless
 

And then… Shen Chi woke her up, and when she awoke, she found herself sleeping on the ground.

Shen Chi took Xu Chaomu’s phone and flipped through the messages.

Xu Chaomu’s face turned red, and she hurried to snatch it back. She didn’t really want Shen Chi to see the messages between her and Nie Chenglang, afraid he would misunderstand.

“Give me the phone!”

Xu Chaomu wasn’t as tall as someone, and she couldn’t snatch it back from him.

Shen Chi held the phone in his hand and continued to look at the messages.

Indeed, the first few messages were sent to him, along with the picture of Xu Chaomu being tied up. He had been too anxious at the time to notice that the photo was just a setup.

Had Shen Shihan changed after five years?

But, no matter how much a wolf changes, it’s still a wolf at heart.

Shen Chi’s brows furrowed; he didn’t want Xu Chaomu to overthink, so he quickly deleted those messages.

“Shen Chi, give me back my phone. If you don’t, I’ll leave on my own!” Xu Chaomu tried to grab it again.

She still couldn’t snatch it from Shen Chi and grew impetuous.

She didn’t know what he was looking at so intently.

After Shen Chi deleted those messages, he scrolled up and found the messages Xu Chaomu had sent a few days ago: “I miss you.”

Seeing this, Shen Chi’s eyes and brows gradually softened.

“Mumu, who brought you to this place?” Shen Chi put away the phone and asked her.

“I don’t know. I was walking on the road… then I was knocked out, and when I woke up, I saw you. Where is this place?”

Xu Chaomu didn’t dare say she went to find Nie Chenglang…

“Didn’t see who it was?” Shen Chi asked with furrowed brows.

“No, it was too dark, I couldn’t see anything,” Xu Chaomu shook her head.

“Around what time?”

“Seven or eight o’clock.”

“On which road?”

“I…” Xu Chaomu stammered, her gaze flickering uncertainly.

On the road of Nie Chenglang’s residential area, but… could she say that?

“Hmm?” Shen Chi lowered his voice, looking into her eyes.

Xu Chaomu stuttered, “Just… just went out to buy stuff, walking down the alley.”

“Didn’t I say that whatever you want, just ask Butler Ling to go out and buy it!” Shen Chi was slightly annoyed.

Xu Chaomu jumped, pouting unhappily, “Why are you yelling? Can’t I even go out to buy things now?”

“It’s not that you can’t go out to buy things. When you go out, take more servants with you, or ask Butler Ling to buy them for you. Why can’t you remember this?!”

“My memory is bad. I can’t remember it! It’s just buying stuff; don’t I even have that little bit of freedom after coming to the Shen family?”

She yelled at him, and he yelled back.

“This is not about freedom. You can go out alone, but can you guarantee nothing will happen?!”

“Marrying you is the only reason there is so much trouble! When I was in Paris, I lived happily every day without any problems!”

Xu Chaomu, now furious, reached out to snatch Shen Chi’s phone from his hand!

Shen Chi raised his hand, not letting her snatch it.

With no other option, Xu Chaomu glared at him and walked out on her own, carrying her handbag.

Her little cheeks were red with anger. Why was this man like this!

“Stop!” Shen Chi called out to her.

Xu Chaomu paused for a moment but didn’t listen to him and continued walking forward.

The corridor was very dark, without any lights, and she couldn’t see her hands before her eyes. Xu Chaomu walked cautiously, afraid of falling.

She braced herself against the wall, not daring to move rashly.

Shen Chi quickly caught up to her; he walked in front of her and blocked her way.

“Let me go.”

“We’ll talk when we get back!” Without another word, Shen Chi swept her up into a princess carry, domineeringly holding her in his arms.

“Put me down, I can walk by myself, let me go!”

“If you’re not afraid to wake up the whole floor, then go ahead and yell a bit louder!” Shen Chi said coldly.

Xu Chaomu fell silent. She didn’t know where this was, but it looked like an apartment building.

“Hold on tighter, if you fall, I won’t take responsibility!” Shen Chi added.

Xu Chaomu couldn’t see his face, but from his tone, she felt he was especially fierce, which made her even more upset.

But for the sake of the baby in her belly, she still wrapped her arms tightly around his neck.

“Really heavy,” someone said indifferently.

Xu Chaomu gritted her teeth—she was pregnant, how could she not be heavy?

“If you think I’m fat, just say it,” Xu Chaomu said irritably.

“Shut up.”

“You!” Xu Chaomu fumed.

In the darkness, she couldn’t see anything, but she knew she was very close to him. She pouted her body and bit down hard on his neck!

“Hiss…” Shen Chi drew in a breath of cold air.

His brows furrowed, and through clenched teeth, he enunciated each word, “Xu Chaomu, are you a dog?”

“Not happy about it?” Xu Chaomu gloated.

“Alright, I’ll remember this,” Shen Chi said in a deep voice.

Carrying Xu Chaomu, he followed the path they came from and soon saw the elevator. The elevator hadn’t been used for a while and was still on the fifteenth floor.

He pressed the button, and the elevator doors slowly opened.

The elevator was brightly lit, and with the light, Xu Chaomu could clearly see the expression on Shen Chi’s face.

He looked very serious, his head low, his deep eyes staring at her.

Xu Chaomu quickly turned her head away, not daring to stare back at him. However, she still noticed the clear bite mark she left on his neck.

Serves him right for yelling at her, shameless.

The elevator slowly descended, and Shen Chi’s gaze never left Xu Chaomu.

The flickering light in the room just now hadn’t given him a good look at her, but now, he saw her clearly.

Although they hadn’t seen each other for some days, she hadn’t changed much.

But today’s pink dress was beautiful on her, making her look ethereal and elegant.

Xu Chaomu was looking down, but she could still feel two hot stares fixed on her.

Frightened, she didn’t move and turned her head towards his chest.

She sniffed her nose and suddenly smelled blood.

Following the scent, she saw blood oozing from Shen Chi’s arm.

“Why is your arm bleeding?”

Xu Chaomu looked up at him.

“It’s nothing,” Shen Chi said lightly.

“There’s so much blood. Let me re-wrap it for you.” Xu Chaomu was serious.

“No need, you wrapping it is worse than not wrapping it at all.”

“You! Heartless and ungrateful, Shen Chi, you don’t appreciate kindness! Fine, just let it bleed then, I was just being nosy. Besides, why should I care about you,” Xu Chaomu said, getting even angrier, her little face turning redder.

Just then, the elevator reached the first floor with a “ding,” and the doors opened.

“Are you worried about me?” Shen Chi looked at her.

“I’d rather worry about Dabai. At least when I show concern for Dabai, it wags its tail at me,” Xu Chaomu said angrily.

Shen Chi carried her out of the elevator. Her face was flushed with anger, and he found himself smiling.

But now, having carried her all the way, his arm was indeed straining. With the exertion, the blood started flowing again.

“Put me down, I can walk. I’m so heavy, it can’t be comfortable for you to hold me,” Xu Chaomu said, seeing the blood seeping from his arm. But his words had just annoyed her so much that she could only express herself this way.

“It’s okay,” he said lightly.
