Chapter 555: Since the Miscarriage
Shen Chi hung up the phone with Li Beiting and tossed his cell phone onto the sofa, continuing to browse through the pages on his computer.
A white business laptop lay on his legs as he lazily leaned against the sofa, his eyes fixed on the computer screen.
Before long, his phone rang again, this ti it was Xiao Mo calling.
“President Shen.” Xiao Mo’s tone was a bit anxious.
“What’s the matter?”
“Jian Sisi has been diagnosed with depression. I’m wondering whether to send her to the hospital. Her condition is not good.”
“Where is she now?”
“Still at the sa place where she was detained before.”
“I’ll co over.”
“Okay, President Shen, I’ll wait for you.” Xiao Mo hadn’t expected Shen Chi to be free to co over today.
Shen Chi was usually too busy, and since the last ti, he hadn’t paid any attention to Jian Sisi’s situation.
Of course, no matter how busy he was, as long as it involved Xu Chaomu, he would always make sure to be there as soon as possible.
This man’s heart always leaned towards Xu Chaomu.
Shen Chi closed his laptop, stood up, and took a suit jacket from the rack, draping it over his arm.
He glanced at the ti; it was exactly eight o’clock in the evening.
As he left the house, he happened to see Xu Chaomu learning to knit a sweater with the butler.
Xu Chaomu lifted her eyelids briefly before dropping them again. She ignored Shen Chi and continued to knit.
Since his last bout of jealousy, the man hadn’t let it go for several days.
These days, he had been cold and indifferent to her. Xu Chaomu, being stubborn herself, ignored him in return.
Xu Chaomu even thought, since she had swiped over a thousand yuan from him last ti and he was unhappy, perhaps she should find a chance to pay him back.
“Fourth Young Master, are you going out this late?” It was the butler who asked out of concern.
She was asking on behalf of Xu Chaomu, knowing that Xu Chaomu was too lazy to ask.
“Mhm,” Shen Chi responded and headed straight to the garage.
Xu Chaomu nudged the butler with her elbow and whispered, “Don’t bother with him.”
The butler smiled helplessly. This Fourth Young Master and his lady were quite the quarrelso pair.
Shen Chi got in his car, and under the cover of night, he quickly arrived at the place where Jian Sisi was being held.
Xiao Mo had already been waiting outside, and he hurried forward to open the car door for Shen Chi.
“President Shen.”
“How’s the situation?”
“Her depression cos and goes. A doctor is treating her. It’s just that she refuses to take her dication herself and we have to force her every ti.”
“Mhm.”
“President Shen, be careful if you plan to see her. We’ve already stopped placing breakable items near her, but she still bites.”
“Does she know that Zhuo Fan is dead?”
“She doesn’t.”
“Alright, I understand.”
Shen Chi, walking through the dark night, entered the low, unassuming house.
Bathed in moonlight, the house appeared like a small mound, utterly inconspicuous. Bamboo was planted all around the house, and the wind caused the sea of bamboo to sway, the leaves making a swooshing sound.
People were guarding outside the house. Xiao Mo accompanied Shen Chi inside.
Just as Shen Chi reached the entrance, he heard a loud pounding on the wall!
“President Shen, please be careful,” Xiao Mo cautioned in a low voice, knowing that it was Jian Sisi making the noise.
“Let out.” The voice of a woman, desolate and grieving.
The sound echoed in the emptiness, strikingly loud and sending shivers down the spine.
Shen Chi took a few steps and stopped in front of a room.
The room’s window was open, but there were iron bars on it, making it look very much like a cage.
Shen Chi stood by the window, his piercing gaze directed into the room.
Indeed, Jian Sisi inside was pounding the wall, but the wall was unmoved. After attempting for a while and failing, she began to cry.
She lay over the table, crying brokenheartedly.
“Let out… my baby… Zhuo Fan, where are you?!” Jian Sisi was sowhat incoherent.
Through the light in the room, Shen Chi saw Jian Sisi with disheveled hair, looking as though she hadn’t changed her clothes in many days.
The Jian Sisi from before at least took care of her image as his secretary, always ticulously made up and dressed extravagantly. This woman now was hardly recognizable as the sa person.
Of course, compared to the desperate Jian Sisi from four years ago, there wasn’t much difference.
“Ever since the miscarriage, she has been like this. She’s smashed everything smashable in the room, and now there’s nothing left to break; she just cries every day,” Xiao Mo said.
“What if she knew Zhuo Fan was dead?” Shen Chi’s expression was cold.
“She would… probably go mad.”
“If she goes mad, throw her in a ntal hospital,” Shen Chi said in a low and heartless tone, as if discarding sothing completely inconsequential.
“Yes,” Xiao Mo responded.
After all this ti, Jian Sisi’s plight was of her own making.
Initially, Shen Chi had done everything he possibly could for her, yet she had the audacity to threaten him, even daring to lie.
Such a bold and greedy woman, Xiao Mo had never seen before.
Other won at most sought to seduce Shen Chi and climb into his bed, but this one dared to deceive.
She wanted not just money but also the position of the Fourth Young Mistress.
It was a pity that their cleverness led to their folly.
Shen Chi stood by the window for a while, Jian Sisi weeping throughout, her cries loud and particularly chilling in the night.
She was completely unaware of Shen Chi by the window, sotis even talking to herself.
After standing for quite so ti, Shen Chi walked to the door.
“Open the door.”
“President Shen, if you have sothing to say, just ask her from the window,” Xiao Mo was a bit worried. “She’s in a very unstable state right now; I’m afraid she might harm you.”
“Am I supposed to be afraid of her?” Shen Chi’s face darkened as he gave Xiao Mo a cold glare.
“Still… please be careful.”
Xiao Mo, unable to go against Shen Chi’s wishes, reluctantly found the keys. He cautiously unlocked the door and gently pushed it open.
As soon as the door opened, Jian Sisi reacted with extre sensitivity!
She darted towards the doorway with agile steps!
Xiao Mo quickly intercepted her, giving her a forceful shove and sending her crashing to the ground!
Shen Chi entered and closed the door behind him.
“President Shen, President Shen… I’m Sisi, don’t you recognize ? I’m Sisi…”
Upon seeing Shen Chi, Jian Sisi clung to him like a lifeline, her eyes shining eagerly as she rushed toward him!
Xiao Mo, of course, wouldn’t let her touch Shen Chi. He blocked Jian Sisi.
“Xiao Mo, why are you stopping ?” Jian Sisi glared at Xiao Mo with resentnt.
Supporting herself with her hands, she slowly rose from the floor. Her eyes, bloodshot and filled with hatred towards Xiao Mo, were pleading as she looked to Shen Chi.
Shen Chi stood several steps away, his arms crossed, observing her without a word.
“Jian Sisi, behave yourself!” Xiao Mo warned her.
With Xiao Mo standing in the way, Jian Sisi could not get close to Shen Chi.
Desperately, she could only gaze at Shen Chi, her heart pounding with urgency.
