Chapter 158: – Give So Ti
Translator: 549690339
Xu Chaomu’s eyes beca moist. All her life, she had never truly understood what “ho” ant.
She had no ho; her only family, her mother who had been her whole world, perished in a fire when she was ten.
The Shen Family took her in, and to be fair, her life with the Shen Family was pretty good, especially when it ca to Shen Chi. Despite being sowhat overbearing, he was really good to her, beyond reproach.
But that said, the Shen Family was still the Shen Family, not her ho.
How she longed to have a ho of her own…
She would decorate it beautifully, with little flower pots and a variety of lovely flowers; she would learn to cook, preparing a table full of delicious food; she would hang a warm floral curtain, and with a pull, the bedroom would be drenched in sunlight…
Having a ho would be so wonderful.
That’s why sotis she was really envious of Bai Man. She had a complete family, parents who loved and cherished her, a career, beauty, and family background…
Particularly the last ti the Bai Family ca to the Shen Family to discuss marriage arrangents, and she saw Bai Man nestled against her parents, her heart was filled with such envy…
She too wished to be pampered and babied in the arms of her parents. Unfortunately, she couldn’t do that.
“What are you thinking about?” Seeing her quiet for a long ti, Shen Chi turned his head and asked indifferently.
Xu Chaomu didn’t want to speak, her brow revealing a faint trace of wistful sorrow.
Shen Chi saw her gaze lingering where a family of three had passed by just monts ago and figured out what she was thinking.
His large hand reached out involuntarily, wanting to touch her head.
The warmth of his palm gently fell, with tenderness and indulgence.
Xu Chaomu didn’t dodge, just lifted her eyes in surprise and looked at Shen Chi.
After a long while, he slowly began to speak.
“Give so ti,” his voice sounded, deep and hoarse.
In his eyes, there was an unfathomable depth, his pupils dark as abyssal waters, mysterious and impenetrable.
Xu Chaomu didn’t understand what he ant. Her eyelids drooped again, and she turned her head subconsciously, still quite resistant to him.
Just then, the red light turned green, and Shen Chi let his arm fall, sighing, and pressed the accelerator once more.
If it were the old days, when he touched her hair, she would definitely have struck back wanting to touch his in return, she would definitely have protested, “Big bro, you’re taking advantage of again!”
Now, maybe she had beco lazy, no longer finding the interest.
How much longer could she continue to like him? Next month, he would be engaged…
There was a sharp pain in her heart, unbearable.
Suddenly, she rembered the press conference where he had personally placed a ring on Bai Man’s finger, saying aloud, “Next month, I will be engaged to Miss Bai Man, which also signifies that in the future, we will be just as this ‘Eternal Heart’, eternally in love.”
Eternally in love…
Those four words were the greatest irony to her.
Soon, the car arrived at Xu Chaomu’s school.
It was late, and the students were in their break ti. Because of the rain, the students were only moving around in the corridors, and no one was outside.
The rain was pouring down heavily.
Even with the excellent sound insulation of the Maybach, she could hear the steady downpour.
Xu Chaomu thought, according to Shen Chi’s habits, he wouldn’t drive into the school. After all, every ti before, he had her get out of the car from afar.
Perhaps he didn’t want to be associated with her. Indeed, she hadn’t done anything that would make him proud.
But today, Shen Chi drove into the school gates.
This made Xu Chaomu sowhat anxious. She reached for the seat belt, “You don’t need to take in, I can walk over.”
“How can you walk in such heavy rain?” Shen Chi frowned.
“It’s not that far, it doesn’t matter if I get wet for a bit, I’m not that delicate. Just stop the car,” she said.
“Sit still! ”
Shen Chi didn’t listen to her at all and drove straight into the school.
But the parking spot was still a distance from the teaching building, and the
rain was indeed heavy.
As soon as he parked the car, she reached to open the door, but she was thwarted when she found it locked and could only stare helplessly.
“Don’t you have an umbrella in the car? Lend it to . I’ll return it when I go back ho,” Xu Chaomu said.
“I don’t,” he replied.
“Then please unlock the door. I’ll walk over, it’s just a few steps. Don’t worry, I won’t talk nonsense. In front of others, I never ntioned that you are my fourth brother. Nobody knows.”
So annoyance appeared in Shen Chi’s eyes. He turned his head, and a coldness seed to settle there.
“Really, I’m not lying to you,” Xu Chaomu, thinking he did not believe her, anxiously twisted her fingers, “Even if I did tell, nobody would believe . But I swear, I haven’t told anyone. I might be immature, but I know my limits. If you don’t want to say it, I won’t say it.”
After her speech, the annoyance in Shen Chi’s eyes deepened.
“I haven’t seen you this obedient before,” he snorted coldly.
Xu Chaomu pouted, seeing that he still had no intention of opening the door, she reached out to press the button herself, “I’m already late, if I don’t get there soon, the teacher’s going to make stand as punishnt.”
“It would be a miracle if a teacher isn’t driven to tears by you,” Shen Chi said flatly.
“If you dislike , then don’t look at , so I won’t offend Your Highness’s eyes. You’ll bla if you can’t eat or sleep well,” Xu Chaomu retorted discontentedly.
The events of last night were still fresh in her mind: her liking him, and him disliking her. In this case, it didn’t matter if he disliked her a little more. She rembered there was a term for this, “part on good terms.”
Part on good terms.
Her words were especially grating to the ear, causing Shen Chi to frown.
No one had ever dared to speak to him like that before; he was both angry and amused, but mostly he felt helpless.
He had lost his temper with her badly the night before and later felt he had wronged her.
He could lose his temper with anyone, but he should not have done so to her.
His hand brushed through her hair, his lips curving up slightly, “If I can’t eat or sleep well, it would certainly be because of you.”
“How is that my fault? If you really can’t eat or sleep well, it’s definitely because Miss Bai hasn’t satisfied you. Bastard, hurry up and open the door; I need to get out!”
Shen Chi’s face was filled with annoyance; Xu Chaomu was being improper again.
He couldn’t even recall how many tis she had called him a “bastard.” If soone else had insulted him like that, he would have turned against them long ago.
Shen Chi’s face remained expressionless, his deep eyes inscrutable.
He unlocked the door, and Xu Chaomu, like a rabbit, leapt out of the car.
The rain outside was heavy, and she heedlessly rushed out, desperately trying to avoid him, and in her carelessness, she even sprained her ankle.
“Are you out of your mind?!”
Shen Chi’s eyes narrowed with intensity. He quickly jumped out of the car, his steps steady and firm.
Approaching her, he scooped her up without a word, cradling her tightly in his arms.
“Hold on to !”
His tone was as commanding as the force of his arms, leaving no room for her to protest or struggle.
The rain soon drenched Shen Chi, his hair soaked in no ti. He shielded her, unwilling to let her get wet in the slightest..
