Chapter 1176: Chapter 1176: I Will Beco a Qualified Father Chapter 1176: Chapter 1176: I Will Beco a Qualified Father At this mont, sunlight dappled across the sheets, the floor, and also cascaded over Shen Chi’s hair and Xiaobao’s face.
In the light, the two of them sat, with Xiaobao laughing joyfully, revealing shallow dimples.
Shen Chi also curved his lips, a lifted arc at the corner of his mouth, and upon a closer look, one could see the faint dimples at the edges of his own smile.
Xu Chaomu pushed the door open and was greeted with such a loving scene.
From the side, Xiaobao and Shen Chi did bear so resemblance to each other.
Especially when both smiled, those shallow dimples on their faces were strikingly identical.
Without realizing it, Xu Chaomu also cracked a slight smile.
Hearing the footsteps, Shen Chi turned his head around. As he did, he caught Xu Chaomu’s smile, and he was slightly startled.
How long had it been since he had seen her smile like that? Her smile dazzled him to the point where he could hardly open his eyes.
Only the doctor was rather a spoilsport, as he walked over solemnly, “President Shen, let give you a check-up.”
Shen Chi’s brows furrowed ever so slightly, what inconvenient timing.
Xu Chaomu could tell that Shen Chi was on the verge of losing his temper, so she quickly stepped forward, stating bluntly, “Doctor, please be thorough with the check-up.”
With Xu Chaomu saying that, Shen Chi contained his irritation and stared at her.
“President Shen… you should stay seated on the bed and avoid excessive movent, it’s important to maintain a cheerful mood,” the doctor said.
“Sit on the bed,” Xu Chaomu said indifferently.
Her tone was like that of scolding Xiaobao, which made Shen Chi’s mouth twitch.
Xiaobao on the other hand was still laughing carefree, but upon seeing the person in the white coat, he was shadowed by fear, and unconsciously scrambled away.
After being poked for blood by a ‘bad person’ in a white coat last ti, Xiaobao was quite vexed.
Xiaobao crawled quickly, and upon seeing him like this, Xu Chaomu couldn’t help but burst into laughter!
She knew Xiaobao was scared, after the blood draw last ti, he had cried for a long ti.
When Xu Chaomu laughed, Shen Chi’s gaze lingered on her, unable to move away for quite so ti.
She picked Xiaobao up and sat on the side while the doctor quietly perford the check-up on Shen Chi.
“President Shen, here is the dication. Take two pills of each kind, and I will have a nurse co over to start an IV for you shortly,” the doctor said.
“No IV,” Shen Chi replied coldly.
“What are you, acting like a child now!” Xu Chaomu scolded.
“…”
“President Shen, an IV will prevent infection in the wound and help it heal faster,” the doctor said.
“…” Shen Chi remained silent.
“It’s okay, doctor, have the nurse co and set the IV,” Xu Chaomu said.
The doctor nodded, understanding that ‘one thing subdues another’—this saying really wasn’t false. Shen Chi, in the presence of anyone else, would be domineering and aloof, listening to no one’s words, but whenever Xu Chaomu spoke, he would comply obediently.
As the doctor left with the report in his hand, he overheard Xu Chaomu’s chiding words, akin to scolding a child, “Even Xiaobao isn’t afraid of getting an injection, what are you afraid of. Can you recover without injections or dication?”
The doctor smiled and closed the door behind him as he left.
After being reprimanded by Xu Chaomu, Shen Chi found himself at a loss for words.
However, he was always obedient to Xu Chaomu; if she asked him to take his dication, he would, but only if she was there, was he truly willing.
“The water’s just the right temperature now; take your dicine,” Xu Chaomu said as she brought out the pills.
As a child, she rembered how Shen Chi would often scold her when she refused to take her dicine, sotis even intimidating her!
Shen Chi frowned, showing reluctance to comply.
But upon glancing at Xu Chaomu, with half-closed eyes he said, “You feed .”
“…” Xu Chaomu sighed.
“I won’t eat it if you don’t feed ,” Shen Chi huffed.
“If you don’t eat, your headache will persist,” Chaomu retorted, not falling for his pretense, “And don’t bla if you can’t sleep at night or develop so kind of lingering ailnt!”
… Shen Chi gave her a sidelong glance, this unromantic woman.
As a result, Shen Chi shalessly stuck to his guns, not eating if she wouldn’t feed him.
“Hey, Shen Chi, are you going to eat or not? The water will get cold if you wait any longer!” Chaomu yelled.
Shen Chi was actually being so shaless and disobedient!
After she yelled, Shen Chi looked up innocently and silently stared at her.
“Why are you looking at ? I’m not the dicine. Staring won’t solve anything!”
“How can you say you’re not dicine? In my heart, only you can cure my illness,” Shen Chi said earnestly.
… Chaomu’s face expressed the feeling of ‘I just ate a bug’; how could he be so cheesy?!
Yet, when the usually domineering Shen Chi said such things, it felt strangely fitting. His brow was slightly furrowed, his expression a mix of pain and sorrow.
Seeing him like this, Chaomu couldn’t bring herself to stay angry.
“Baba, baba…” Xiaobao had sohow crawled over to Shen Chi, trying to climb onto him.
His little hands were frantic, grabbing onto Shen Chi’s neck.
Shen Chi was usually petty, not letting others touch him!
But Xiaobao was different. No matter how he touched him, even if he scratched him with his nails, Shen Chi never got angry; instead, he was overjoyed.
“Xiaobao, be good, daddy will pick you up!” Shen Chi hoisted him up from the bed.
“Giggles,” Xiaobao laughed.
“Xiaobao, your fourth uncle refuses to take his dicine. You feed him,” Chaomu said, pushing a pill into Xiaobao’s tiny hand.
… A twitch appeared at the corner of Shen Chi’s mouth.
“Don’t use the term ‘fourth uncle.’ I’m his father. Didn’t you hear him calling ?!” Shen Chi said sternly.
“Xiaobao, go on, feed him. Your fourth uncle is even more childish than you. He’s afraid to take dicine; you can laugh at him,” Chaomu urged Xiaobao, as if she hadn’t heard Shen Chi’s words.
Xiaobao continued to giggle, “Gege, gege,” a sound that seed like mockery to Shen Chi.
Suddenly, Shen Chi released his hold, letting Xiaobao climb on top of him, then, with one strong arm, he pulled the endlessly chattering, rambunctious woman over.
Once he had her in his grasp, he embraced her tightly.
“Chaomu, what am I to you?” he asked, staring intently at her with a hint of nace in his eyes.
“Big brother.”
“Ever seen a brother and sister get a marriage certificate?!”
…
“Let give you another chance, what am I to you?”
“What are you planning to do?”
“Nothing, just want to make it clear in front of Xiaobao.”
“Hooligan!” Chaomu frowned, “Xiaobao is still young, don’t set a bad example for him!”
“That’s up to you. If what you say pleases , I won’t act on it. If it doesn’t, I might just corrupt him a bit.”
“Is this how you act as a father?!” Chaomu blurted out in desperation!
Upon hearing this, Shen Chi’s face imdiately lit up with a smile.
“You should believe that I will be a qualified father, and also a qualified husband,” Shen Chi whispered in her ear.
At that mont, he held Chaomu with one arm and Xiaobao with the other.
A smile filled his eyes; indeed, this had to be the happiest mont of his life.
As Chaomu was held in his arms, lying on his chest, she could hear his heart beating “thump, thump.”
