Chapter 601: Chapter 601: In a lifeti, I only love you
She had t both of them before: they didn’t talk much and were serious about their work, without any inappropriate behavior.
She rarely spoke to them, let alone harbored any grudge against them.
Now that the video was missing, if it was taken by one of them, then they must have been instructed by soone.
Xu Chaomu’s heart was a bit panicked; she had stored the video at the bottom of the box and didn’t even know when it had gone missing.
However, for the ti being, the person who took the video had not taken any action.
“Chaomu, are you going back to Waterside Pavillion today?” Just as Xu Chaomu was thinking about this, the butler asked.
Xu Chaomu nodded: “Yes, I am.”
“How do you find living there? Are you settling in all right?”
“It’s pretty good.”
“That’s good to hear. But with Mr. Li Beiting there, I’m relieved. He will surely take good care of you,” the butler said, “Have you been to the hospital for check-ups recently? How’s the baby?”
“I’ve been to the hospital a few tis. The doctor says all is well, very healthy.”
“That’s great, that’s great. As the months go by, you shouldn’t overexert yourself. If there’s anything you need, just tell Mr. Li Beiting, with him around, everything can be easily handled.”
“He treats very well,” Xu Chaomu said, lowering her head.
The butler moved his lips, wanting to say more, but swallowed the words back down.
In truth, he really wanted to say, Chaomu, those things from the past, why not let them be?
But then he thought, with such a matter of life and death, such a deeply felt pain, how could it possibly just be let go?
Moreover, Xu ngxi was Xu Chaomu’s mother.
So, was Xu Chaomu carrying another man’s child now as a form of punishnt for Beiting?
Thinking this, the butler sighed inwardly; these two children must stay together well in the future…
At that mont, Xu Chaomu’s phone rang; it was Yu Weiwei.
“Chaomu, are you out yet? I’m already waiting for you here at Ho Furnishing City.”
“I’ll be ready soon, wait for a bit more.”
“Okay, no rush, take your ti.”
After hanging up the phone, Xu Chaomu went upstairs to change her clothes.
As for Yu Weiwei, she parked her car in the nearby parking lot of Ho Furnishing City and, carrying her bag, entered the first floor.
She wanted to get so items for the office and, while at it, buy so furniture for her own small apartnt. While waiting for Xu Chaomu, she started browsing the first floor.
The first floor had many beautiful beds: European style, retro, mahogany, rosewood… all kinds and styles, dazzling to behold.
Since it was the weekend, the place was quite crowded, and walking alone, Yu Weiwei didn’t feel lonely.
She didn’t need to buy a bed herself, but she found them quite appealing.
As she browsed, her eyes fell upon beautiful little baby cribs.
A wave of excitent surged within her as she ran to a shop that specialized in baby cribs to take a closer look.
Xu Chaomu had been back in the country for a while now, and it seed that she had not bought any gifts for her baby. Perhaps, giving her a little crib could also be nice.
That way, when Xu Chaomu’s baby was born, they would happily call her “auntie.”
Yu Weiwei smiled as she chose among several different styles of baby cribs.
“Hello, miss, what type of baby crib would you like to see?” the sales assistant asked with a smile.
“I’ll just look around myself,” Yu Weiwei said, bowing her head and walking back and forth among the plethora of cribs.
“Sure.”
After looking around for a while, she thought that a light green imported wooden crib, complete with a mosquito net, a sleeping bag, and other accessories, looked particularly adorable.
Yu Weiwei was imdiately captivated by these little gadgets, which stirred the maternal affection hidden deep in her heart.
Yu Weiwei squatted down to take a closer look at the crib.
“Beiting, help choose another dressing table, I don’t really like the one at your place.” A sweet female voice rang out.
Yu Weiwei’s hand instinctively froze. She didn’t recognize the voice, but the na… she was all too familiar with it.
“Hmm,” the man replied in a deep voice.
Indeed, it was him.
Is this what they an by “adversaries are bound to et,” she wondered?
Head bowed, pretending to look at the cribs, she didn’t want to stand up.
“Beiting, look, there are so many baby cribs here, so cute. Look at those patterns; aren’t they interesting? That one, that pink one, I like it so much. Let’s go take a look?”
The voice was getting closer, and Yu Weiwei seriously wished she could just crawl away.
Unfortunately, the two stopped not far from her.
With no way to avoid them and not wanting to remain crouching, Yu Weiwei calmly stood up, ready to leave the area.
Just as she stood, Li Beiting and Mi Fei coincidentally stood right in front of her.
Shock filled Li Beiting’s eyes; he had not expected to encounter Yu Weiwei here.
He had thought he wouldn’t see her before the wedding, and of course, he had been actively avoiding her.
Mi Fei wasn’t familiar with Yu Weiwei, but as her husband’s ex-girlfriend, she definitely recognized her.
Mi Fei took the initiative to smile: “Hello.”
Yu Weiwei also offered a smile: “Hello.”
It was just a brief greeting, and Yu Weiwei passed by them without a mont’s hesitation, leaving the area.
She hurried off elsewhere, and for so reason, her heart began to pound in disarray.
Compared to them, she was apparently more discomposed.
This was the first ti she had seen Li Beiting and Mi Fei so close together. After breaking up, she was too proud to care about Li Beiting—they had agreed never to see each other again.
After composing herself, she continued to look at furniture.
Li Beiting had beco a thing of the past, and what’s past is past…
But for so reason, her palms still broke out in a dense layer of sweat.
She found a restroom and, turning on the faucet, scooped up a handful of water to wash her hands and face.
In the restroom mirror, she saw her own reflection, looking a bit pale. She thought it must be because of the heat.
The little wet hairs around her ears clung to the drops of water, which now ticulously dripped down her cheeks.
She dried the water marks with a tissue and looked at her face in the mirror.
Gradually, a bitter smile spread across her lips.
She lowered her head and rummaged through her handbag, intending to touch up her make-up.
As she searched, she suddenly felt a ring bump against her fingertip. Her finger was lightly nicked by the diamond on the ring, and she jolted awake, pulling the diamond ring from the bag.
This ring was a recent gift from Li Beiting.
She had kept it in her bag, thinking many tis to just throw it away sowhere appropriate, but to this day, it still lay safely inside her bag.
As she held the ring, she rembered Li Beiting’s words: “Yu Weiwei, listen well; this ring is a token of engagent from Mr. Li Beiting. He promises, to love only you for a lifeti.”
A more pronounced bitter smile spread across Yu Weiwei’s lips, a lifeti?
