Chapter 1033: Chapter 1033: Don’t Step Into the Shen Family’s Door Again Chapter 1033: Chapter 1033: Don’t Step Into the Shen Family’s Door Again Xu Chaomu walked happily into the living room with Wealth in her arms, who was so obedient it was as though he understood everything Xu Chaomu said, not causing any trouble at all.
She set everything down on the sofa, and Xu Chaomu fed Wealth a little snack first.
Wealth seed not too interested in the food, constantly gazing at the other bag in Xu Chaomu’s hand.
“Ah, Wealth, you’re so clever, you know there are clothes in here, don’t you?” Xu Chaomu joked with him, smiling.
Wealth’s eyes imdiately crinkled into slits, eagerly anticipating his new clothes.
Xu Chaomu took a small red, adorable piece of clothing out of the bag for Wealth to wear.
After dressing Wealth, Xu Chaomu especially stood with him in front of a mirror to take a look. Wealth wagged his tail, looking very pleased.
Xu Chaomu took out her phone and snapped several pictures with Wealth.
Cute poses, funny ones, intimate ones… She captured all sorts of photos.
However, just after she finished taking photos, that stranger’s number texted her again.
“I’m with your husband,” the ssage read with just a few cold words.
Xu Chaomu thought it was really childish. She instantly replied, “You think I’d believe you just because you send so photos and fabricate a few voice recordings?”
After sending her response, she didn’t wait for a reply and imdiately blocked the number!
Childish, so childish!
She was being childish too. She had agreed not to respond, hadn’t she?!
Bai Man was genuinely irritated, wondering when Xu Chaomu had beco so generous. Wasn’t Xu Chaomu the one who was most attached to Shen Chi?
Could it be Xu Chaomu truly didn’t love Shen Chi anymore?
But no matter, there was no need for her to be upset with Xu Chaomu. One number blocked, she had plenty more.
She was in a good mood today and wouldn’t bicker with that woman. After all, what was she? Just an ex-wife?
She was looking forward to the day Xu Chaomu received Shen Chi’s divorce papers!
A smug curve appeared at the corners of her lips as she stood at the window absorbing the view. It was only after a while that she slowly went downstairs.
Those days, Bai Xuan still forbade Bai Man from going out. Unable to defy Bai Xuan, Bai Man could only stay at ho.
But her enthusiasm for keeping tabs on the outside world had not diminished. She had her assistant report Shen Chi’s situation to her daily and noted that recently, Shen Chi hadn’t been seen with any female companions.
One morning, while Bai Man was eating breakfast on the balcony, her assistant called.
“Miss Bai, I heard sothing yesterday.”
With a tone full of secrets, Bai Man perked up her ears to listen intently.
“Mm?”
“Didn’t Mr. Shen stay at the Waterside Pavilion recently? I heard that last night, Mr. Shen returned to the Shen Family ho. He seed to be in a bad mood and lost his temper. I heard that he threw many of his ex-wife’s belongings out the window.”
Hearing this, Bai Man couldn’t hide her delight.
Threw away everything?
“And then?” Bai Man pressed on.
“I heard among those belongings were many items that Xu Chaomu cherished a lot. Mr. Shen just threw them out, along with clothes, ornants, and whatnot,” the assistant said.
“I see,” Bai Man replied, a triumphant smile playing on her lips.
“I wanted to tell you last night, but I was worried you were asleep, so I waited until this morning,” the assistant added.
“Next ti, share such good news right away, got it?”
“Okay, I know.”
“Mhm.”
Bai Man hung up the phone and held her mobile, deep in thought for a good while, growing happier the more she dwelt on it.
It seems that everything Shen Chi had told her was true, and it was she who had been overthinking.
Feeling unexplainably happy at the thought, she ate a little more than usual at breakfast.
After eating, she called Shen Chi, pretending to know nothing.
“Shen, are you busy today? I wanted to invite you out for a al.”
“Busy,” Shen Chi declined.
“Oh, then you must be preoccupied with work, right?”
“Mhm.”
“Then I won’t bother you. Call when you’re free.”
“Mhm.”
Bai Man could tell his mood seed down, probably over so ex-wife or another…
She needed to take this ti to have a good heart-to-heart with Shen Chi.
After hanging up with Bai Man, Shen Chi sat on the couch and finished the remaining half cup of coffee.
Just then, Butler Cheng entered.
“Young Master, are you really going to throw away the Young Mistress’s belongings like that?” Butler Cheng still felt regretful.
“What, you haven’t thrown them out yet? I said, get rid of it all!” Shen Chi said coldly.
“No, no, I just thought it was a bit of a sha. The Young Mistress never wore many of those clothes, and they were bought by you,” Butler Cheng really didn’t understand what had been going on with Shen Chi lately.
After Xu Chaomu left, he had been concerned for a while, but in recent months he hadn’t shown any interest.
And it wasn’t as if she hadn’t seen the newspapers and videos – Shen Chi was often seen with different won at various occasions.
What hurt her even more was that yesterday, Shen Chi actually threw away Xu Chaomu’s things.
“Do I, Shen Chi, lack clothes? They were just irritating to see!”
“Yes… I understand. You don’t love the Young Mistress anymore.” Butler Cheng felt a heavy heart, deeply saddened.
“When did Xu Chaomu ever deserve my love? When I loved her, what did she treat like? Did I care when she was pregnant with another man’s child? Did I care when she threw tantrums at ? Now that she’s gone, she shouldn’t take a single step inside the Shen Family’s doors!”
Shen Chi spoke in a cold tone, his face as dark as the sky of June.
Butler Cheng’s eyes reddened, and he nodded, “I understand.”
In his heart, Butler Cheng was truly sorrowful; he had watched their relationship develop step by step – the couple had once been so in love.
Well, if it’s over, it’s over. Seeing Shen Chi like this, it seed he would really never accept Xu Chaomu again.
The divide between them was too deep, and staying together would just be another form of tornt. Maybe it was for the best that they had separated.
Butler Cheng left silently with his head bowed.
Once the living room door closed, the expansive space was left with only Shen Chi.
He unbuttoned the top button of his shirt and tossed aside the magazine he was holding.
He couldn’t rule out the possibility of a mole within Waterside Pavillion and the Shen Family, with Xiuxiu being the pri example. So, having made this move, he wasn’t about to let himself lose. He wouldn’t tell the truth to anyone, not even to Butler Cheng.
After all, what were tossed yesterday were just so clothes, mostly brought back from Paris by Xu Chaomu.
He had long found those clothes distasteful, alright? He had wanted to throw them away for a long ti, alright?
Those clothes, for all he knew, might have been bought while she was with Nie Chenglang; he just couldn’t stand them!
Good, he had finally captured the opportunity to discard them openly and rightfully.
As for the clothes and shoes he had bought her, they were last year’s styles anyway, ti for an update.
Thus, Shen Chi didn’t feel a bit of regret. On the contrary, this move had been played perfectly.
Likely, Bai Man’s informants had reported back to her imdiately after he discarded the items last night.
