If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 615: Chapter 615: Believe it or not, I want you now
 

Xu Chaomu was not only resolute in her attitude, but she also protected her belly with both hands, displaying an expression akin to a mother guarding her young.

“So you have the heart to endure it?”

Xu Chaomu felt scared upon seeing him, afraid of what this man, who had abstained for so long, might do in his frenzy.

She said earnestly, “You can go find another woman.”

“Xu Chaomu, telling your own husband to go find another woman, do you fucking love me or not?” Shen Chi exploded upon hearing Xu Chaomu’s words, his eyes bloodshot with rage.

Sometimes, men need a sense of security too. Five years on, Xu Chaomu had never openly told him she loved him.

He sometimes doubted whether she stayed by his side because of his coercion, dominance, or for some other reason…

Xu Chaomu was greatly frightened by him, especially tonight, as he had lost his temper twice.

She pushed him away, clearly unhappy, “I don’t care who you find, but don’t touch me.”

Shen Chi was also upset, his long fingers pinching her chin, his gaze cold.

“Are you remaining chaste for Nie Chenglang? Hm?”

He had heard that if a woman truly loved a man, she couldn’t bring herself to give her body to another man.

The pressure of his hand hurt, and Xu Chaomu felt pain in her chin.

She grabbed his hand, trying to pry his fingers loose. But there was no budging him.

This man, once consumed by jealousy, became utterly irrational.

“Shen Chi, it’s not like you haven’t wanted other women before. Yes, I just don’t want you to touch me.”

Xu Chaomu looked back at him icily, her pregnancy notwithstanding. No matter how many months along she was, she wouldn’t let him touch her, she insisted.

“Xu Chaomu, do you believe I will have you right now?” Shen Chi said through gritted teeth, his eyes reddened with passion.

“Shen Chi, if you dare touch me, I will make you regret it for the rest of your life.”

Xu Chaomu’s eyes reddened too as she confronted him unyielding.

“Heh.” Shen Chi sneered coldly, “Just how much space does Nie Chenglang occupy in your heart?”

He didn’t want to bring up that man’s name in her presence; each mention was like gouging a wound in his own heart.

“Get away from me.” Xu Chaomu’s brows furrowed as she lost her temper too.

Whenever he was being unreasonable, she found him utterly despicable.

“I’m asking you a question!” Shen Chi’s face grew uglier, his deep-set, terrifying eyes fixed on her.

“Shen Chi, are you that petty? If you are so suspicious and distrustful of me, then let’s just end this. Why keep me around? To add to your troubles? To make your life less comfortable?”

Xu Chaomu had no desire to cater to this unreasonable man!

Having said that, she took hold of the necklace around her neck, the one he had just put on her.

She pulled at it forcefully, making it clear she didn’t want it anymore.

He had just told her not to take it off, but she couldn’t swallow her pride. He was a man, yet more sensitive than a pregnant woman.

“Shen Chi, has no one ever dared to tell you to your face that you have a bad temper? Well, let me tell you today, your temper is so foul you have no friends, and your mood flips on a dime. Do you think everyone is your punching bag? Is bullying me all you’re good at?!”

Xu Chaomu blurted everything out in one breath. He was pinching her chin painfully, yet he refused to let go.

Her eyebrows were furrowed in distress, but to him, it was as if he couldn’t see it.

Tyrant! Tyrant!

After her spiel, Shen Chi showed no signs of letting her go; his expression remained grim.

Xu Chaomu’s heart fluttered with panic. In the past, after she had spoken her mind, he usually wouldn’t be too upset, and if he was in a good mood, he might even apologize to her.

But this time, he showed no reaction whatsoever.

“Answer me,” Shen Chi said in a hoarse voice, his words heavy.

“Answer what?” Xu Chaomu scoffed, “Do you want the truth? Nie Chenglang is much nicer than you, he never loses his temper at me, never forces me to do things I don’t want to, and doesn’t say things people don’t want to hear, unlike you!”

Xu Chaomu couldn’t hold back anymore, she was telling the truth, Shen Chi’s temper was just too cruel!

After saying this, she began to unfasten the necklace around her neck.

The necklace couldn’t be torn off, so she had to unclasp it.

Just as she had twisted the necklace a full circle, Shen Chi caught her hand, his eyes dark and stormy, “Xu Chaomu, I have spoiled you too much.”

Any other person wouldn’t dare to speak to him this way.

“President Shen, if you feel you’re losing out, it’s not too late to regret it now. I’ve used your credit card but made sure to replenish the spent amount. It’s in the bag, and you can take it back any time. I can give it to you right now.”

Shen Chi’s coldness intensified when he heard her words.

After keeping her by his side for so long, she wouldn’t even use his money? She drew such a clear line between them, proving she had never sincerely wanted to stay with him.

“Xu Chaomu, have you ever considered me your husband?”

“What does it matter if I have or haven’t?” Xu Chaomu looked at him squarely.

Shen Chi gave a wry laugh. Heh, clearly she hadn’t.

He knew she wasn’t the student from five years ago anymore. Now, even if she left him, she could still make it on her own, especially since she had Nie Chenglang in this city.

“Xu Chaomu, if I let you go today, will you run to Nie Chenglang tomorrow?”

“If you let me go today, I will immediately go to Nie Chenglang!” Xu Chaomu stated coldly, looking right at him.

“So eager to see him? Do you hate me that much, after all, I tore you two apart…”

“Shen Chi, you’re just too full of yourself. As I said, it’s not too late for you to regret it.”

Shen Chi fell silent, his inscrutable eyes still trained on her.

The words that struck his heart the most today, perhaps, were: I’ve used your card, but made sure to replenish the spent amount, which is in my bag waiting for you to take back at any time.

Both fell into silence.

The distance between them was mere centimeters, each able to feel the other’s breath.

His breathing was rapid; she knew he was in turmoil.

Seizing a moment when he was unsuspecting, she pushed him forcefully and quickly got off the bed.

Without even bothering to put on her shoes, she grabbed her cellphone from the table and rushed out the door.

The moment she left, Shen Chi stood up, watching her flee in panic. His fists slowly clenched tighter and his pupils sharply constricted.

She was running away from him as if from something terrifying.

Xu Chaomu left the room and promptly exited the Shen Family residence.

She hadn’t wanted to return to this place to begin with; it was only because Shen Di was coming home that she had come over today.

Now with Shen Chi’s temper flaring, her urge to leave intensified.

It was still early, and the gates of the Shen Family home were not yet closed.

Without a word, she walked straight out.

A young servant noticed her and hurriedly approached: “Fourth Young Madam, where are you going?”

“Just out for a walk.”

Xu Chaomu didn’t look up and kept walking away.

The young servant didn’t dare to stop her, because they hadn’t seen the Fourth Young Master emerge either.
