If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 791: Chapter 791: It’s just a pity, the child belongs to someone else
 

The bodyguard couldn’t help it, but he still stood outside waiting quietly, with a proper smile on his face.

When Xu Chaomu called Shen Chi, Zhou Ran was half-squatting, opening the safe.

As the cell phone rang in his hand, Shen Chi looked down. Seeing it was Xu Chaomu, his expression immediately softened a lot.

“Mumu,”

“Fourth Brother… Someone came down to pick me up, are they your people?” Xu Chaomu asked.

“Yes, come up,” Shen Chi said in a very gentle tone, the girl finally seemed to have learned something.

“What’s the matter?”

“Come up.”

“Oh,” Xu Chaomu opened the car door, “Wait for me, I’ll be quick.”

“Take it slow, be careful with the baby,” Shen Chi said with concern.

Xu Chaomu smiled, the corners of her lips curving up, “Okay, no problem.”

“Mm.”

Xu Chaomu hung up the phone and opened the car door.

Under the night sky, she glanced at the bodyguard beside the car and smiled, “Let’s go.”

“Yes, Mrs. Fourth Young Master,” the bodyguard nodded, making a “please” gesture.

“By the way, where are we going?”

“To Director Shen’s ward,” the bodyguard replied.

“Oh,” Xu Chaomu nodded; indeed, she hadn’t guessed wrong.

Yet, whenever Shen Cexian was mentioned, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable inside. The events of the past few days had saddened her.

She had never expected Shen Cexian to actually tamper with the paternity test, causing her heartache for a long time.

Shen Cexian really knew how to act; he could have won an Oscar for it! Zhou Ran too, as the best supporting actress. And, of course, that female doctor.

As Shen Chi was on the phone with Xu Chaomu, Zhou Ran’s hands paused.

Indeed, it was only when he spoke with Xu Chaomu that Shen Chi would reveal all his tenderness.

Five years ago, Shen Chi wasn’t like this at all. In fact, at that time, he was very averse to Xu Chaomu, often yelling at her, telling her to scram.

But five years later, Shen Chi couldn’t do without Xu Chaomu.

Shen Cexian had his eyes closed, leaning against the hospital bed. He too heard the difference in Shen Chi’s tone while talking to Xu Chaomu compared to when speaking with him.

He sighed deeply in his heart, closing his eyes without a word.

Soon, the safe was opened, and Zhou Ran took out a stack of paper documents, along with several seals.

“Cexian,” Zhou Ran called out to him softly, holding these items and walking towards Shen Cexian.

It was then that Shen Cexian finally opened his eyes, reaching out his hand.

Zhou Ran understood his intention, silently sighed, and placed all the documents in his hand.

Shen Cexian caressed these items as if they were his own children, his eyes filled with pain and compassion.

His fingertips, slightly white, gently traced over the documents as he opened each page. His gaze was deep and solemn.

Shen Chi still stood at the same spot near the window, not having gone over.

As Shen Cexian flipped through the papers, some pages had already yellowed.

Zhou Ran couldn’t bear to look and her eyes reddened. She knew Shen Cexian was reluctant.

Although Shen Cexian had told her that in the future, the company was definitely going to be handed over to Shen Chi, she never imagined it would be in this way.

The ward was suddenly enveloped in silence again, only the sound of Shen Cexian leafing through the documents could be heard.

A thick stack of documents, along with several square seals.

When Xu Chaomu arrived, she didn’t hurry, with the bodyguard keeping close by her side.

The higher the level of the VIP ward, the quieter it became, with only a few nurses moving around in the hallway.

It must be past nine in the evening already…

Xu Chaomu had no idea what Shen Chi and Shen Cexian talked about, so why did he insist on having her come up?

“Mrs. Fourth Young Master, this way,” the bodyguard led her around a bend.

At this time, Xu Chaomu could already see a few bodyguards walking around the entrance to Shen Cexian’s ward.

She didn’t recognize these people and didn’t know if they were Shen Chi or Shen Cexian’s men.

But she knew, the one beside her was Shen Chi’s man, so she felt very safe.

With one hand on her belly, she followed the bodyguard towards the ward, able to hear the sound of her own footsteps.

Xu Chaomu was not unfamiliar with Shen Cexian’s ward, even could say she was quite accustomed to it, having been there alone before.

She still remembered when she came by herself, unbeknownst to her where she got the courage from, she directly confronted Shen Cexian.

Five years ago, she was only a meek little girl, not daring to refute anything Shen Cexian said.

Five years later, she was no longer that person.

But, she also remembered the incident in the ward when Zhou Ran slapped her. That slap, she still felt a bit painful thinking about it now.

Ultimately, the truth could not be hidden and was discovered by Shen Chi.

She didn’t know what was the matter tonight…

When they reached the ward’s door, the bodyguard pushed it open for her.

As the door opened, a bright light spilled out, bright and dazzling.

Zhou Ran and Shen Chi both looked up towards the door, while Shen Cexian paused for a while before slowly raising his head.

Xu Chaomu stood at the door, still feeling a bit nervous inside.

One hand on her belly, her big eyes surveyed everything inside the room.

Shen Cexian sat on the hospital bed, looking at something with a very serious face. Zhou Ran stood by the bed, expressionless. And Shen Chi, leaning against the window, behind him the endless night sky.

Shen Chi, leaning casually against the window, was captivating, especially with the night sky as backdrop.

His hands lazily pocketed in his dress trousers, his eyes looking at her were full of affection.

“Come in,” Shen Chi said to her softly.

His gaze rested entirely on her, not leaving for a moment.

Xu Chaomu nodded, gave him a smile, and then closed the door to the ward.

With him there, she wasn’t afraid.

Zhou Ran watched the girl, who she hadn’t seen for a few days, and noticed her belly seemed a lot bigger, making the blouse look small.

It’s a pity that it’s someone else’s baby.

Xu Chaomu slowly walked towards Shen Chi, the ward was very quiet, and she felt a little nervous.

Halfway there, Shen Chi quickly strode towards her, taking her hand.

“Why are your hands so cold? Were you sleeping in the car?” Shen Chi lowered his head, furrowing his brow, asking her.

“I had just fallen asleep when you had someone call me up,” she said.

“Don’t you know to cover yourself with a coat? Your hands are so cold!” Shen Chi said, rebuking her lightly.

“I forgot, I thought you’d come down in a bit…” Xu Chaomu said feeling a little aggrieved.

She looked up at him, and he was also looking at her.

Xu Chaomu lowered her head, feeling a bit embarrassed, especially since there were two other people in the ward.

There was a “snap” as Shen Cexian suddenly closed the documents forcefully; his complexion didn’t look very good.

Xu Chaomu looked towards him, puzzled; she didn’t understand what the situation was now.

Shen Chi gripped her hand tightly, and she let him hold it.

“Father, sign it,” Shen Chi said indifferently.

Looking at Shen Cexian, his gaze was as sharp as ever, completely different from when he looked at Xu Chaomu.

Xu Chaomu was still very puzzled, she looked at Shen Chi for a while, then at Shen Cexian.

Sign? Sign what?
