Chapter 634: Chapter 634: Li Beiting’s Engagent Ceremony
Moreover, Xu Chaomu found that Qin Chen was particularly ticulous.
She hadn’t noticed when she made a mistake on a lace edge while knitting a sweater, but he glanced at it inadvertently and pointed it out to her.
Just then, Shen Di ca back. Qin Chen looked up, “Did you get the dicine?”
“Yep, got it.” Shen Di handed the dicine to Qin Chen and chided, “Hold onto it for . If I keep it, who knows, it might be missing by tomorrow.”
Qin Chen accepted it with a smile: “Sure, I’ll keep it.”
“Chaomu, are you knitting a sweater for the baby?” Shen Di glanced at the sweater in Xu Chaomu’s hands, which looked particularly cute with its soft pink hue.
Delighted, she sat next to Xu Chaomu and touched it.
“Yes, I’ve knitted so many already.”
“Pink? Hmm? Is the baby a girl?” Shen Di couldn’t help but ask.
“Don’t know…” Xu Chaomu shook her head, “Anyway, the baby won’t understand when it’s just born.”
“Ha-ha, you’re taking the easy way out as a mom. Just be careful your son doesn’t complain about you,” Shen Di laughed.
As the two chatted, Qin Chen said, “Adi, is Dr. Wen ho alone?”
“He’s not alone, can you imagine him with soone else? With his terrible temper, would anyone willingly live with him?” Shen Di said indifferently.
Xu Chaomu said, “Sis, Dr. Wen is quite nice. Whenever I feel unwell, I reach out to him and he cos over with just a phone call.”
“Let’s not talk about him.” Shen Di swiftly changed the subject. “By the way, Chaomu, do you want a daughter or a son?”
“A daughter,” Xu Chaomu said without hesitation.
Shen Di smiled. Daughters are good, they’re sweet.
However, her thoughts turned to the little girl she had seen at the hospital a few days ago, and she felt a wave of sadness.
No candy is sweet enough to lt the bitterness of illness and pain.
…
Three days later, it was the engagent ceremony of Li Beiting and Mi Fei.
That day, Shen Chi hurriedly flew back to C City from T City.
Xu Chaomu neither went to the hotel nor to the Shen Family. Instead, she visited Yu Weiwei’s research institute.
When she arrived, Yu Weiwei was speaking with a patient.
“Dr. Yu, the dicine you prescribed last ti really worked wonders. After I took it, our marital relationship greatly improved, and now we’re planning on having a baby,” the man said, arm around his wife’s shoulder.
Yu Weiwei smiled and said, “Glad to hear it’s helpful.”
“We wish Dr. Yu’s institute all the success and Miss Yu to grow ever more beautiful,” the patient said.
“Thank you.”
“You’re about to finish your shift, so we won’t keep you any longer, we’ll head back now.”
“Alright, take care, and visit whenever you’re free.”
Yu Weiwei saw them out, and as they left, she saw Xu Chaomu standing outside.
“Wow, soone’s presented Director Yu with a banner of honor,” Xu Chaomu said as she entered her office, laughing.
“Of course, Director Yu’s gifted hands bring life back to the dying, her dical skills are top-notch!” Yu Weiwei patted Xu Chaomu on the shoulder.
“Tsk, tsk, what does it feel like seeing so many n every day?” Xu Chaomu winked teasingly.
“No feeling.”
Xu Chaomu could tell Yu Weiwei was in a good mood, probably unaware that Li Beiting and Mi Fei were getting engaged today.
Xu Chaomu wouldn’t tell her. She definitely wasn’t going to attend Li Beiting’s engagent ceremony today.
“By the way, Weiwei, I think I left my necklace at your place last ti…”
“I’ve put it away for you, shall we go to my place and get it later?”
“Sure, let tell you, Shen Chi won’t be ho tonight, so I’ll sleep at your place this evening.”
“I’ve discovered a secret.”
“Hmm? What secret?” Xu Chaomu turned to look at her.
“There are two characters carved on the jade pendant of your necklace. It looks like soone hand-engraved them,” Yu Weiwei said with the expression of soone who had discovered a new continent.
“He was just happy when he did it… It was for fun,” Xu Chaomu said sheepishly.
“Why doesn’t soone get happy and engrave one for ?”
“I’ll do it for you, do you want it? My dear Miss Weiwei”
“No, I wouldn’t dare let a pregnant woman carve for . You can’t even do that properly. Besides, your handwriting is so ugly, it would look even uglier if you carved it,” Yu Weiwei said seriously.
“You actually disdain , you’re actually rejecting …” Xu Chaomu said with feigned hurt.
“Okay, okay, I’m not rejecting you. My Chaomu is beautiful and so is her handwriting. If she carves it, it will definitely look beautiful, just like… I can’t co up with more…”, Yu Weiwei looked at Xu Chaomu with mock resentnt.
Xu Chaomu chided, “You’re treating to dinner tonight!”
“Shall we go for spicy hotpot?”
“Yes, spicy hotpot!”
The two happily walked out of the institute together, Xu Chaomu arm in arm with Yu Weiwei.
Having had plenty of good food at the Shen Family, she actually missed the taste of spicy hotpot.
Yu Weiwei found a nice little shop with good ambiance. They sat inside with the air conditioner on and enjoyed their spicy hotpot.
Just as the hotpot was ready, Shen Chi called.
“Where are you?” Shen Chi asked in a deep voice.
“Weiwei and I are out having spicy hotpot,” Xu Chaomu replied.
“Li Beiting’s engagent is about to start,” Shen Chi said.
“You know very well I won’t go,” she replied.
“Fine, stay away then, and don’t wander off.”
Xu Chaomu could hear the weariness in Shen Chi’s voice. She knew he had headed straight to the hotel from the airport without even stopping by the Shen Family ho.
“Don’t drink too much,” Xu Chaomu cautioned.
Upon hearing Xu Chaomu’s words, Shen Chi’s lips curved into a smile: “Sympathetic?”
“I don’t feel sorry for you. I’m just worried you’ll drink too much and then lose control, what they call ‘drunk and disorderly.’ And if by chance, you get hooked up with so beauty… Now that I think about it, I should remind you to be safe.”
“Xu Chaomu, do you believe I could drag you back here right now?!” Shen Chi said, angry.
“I’m just being kindhearted, simply reminding you out of good will, considering your best interests, I am… such an upright, kind-hearted person!” Xu Chaomu rapidly finished her sentence, then hurriedly hung up the phone in fear.
She believed it, Shen Chi was capable of anything.
After she hung up the phone, Shen Chi was left helpless, that wild little woman, he needed to set her straight so ti.
In the hotel, the guests had mostly arrived.
Dressed in a white suit, Li Beiting walked over and handed Shen Chi a glass of red wine.
Shen Chi didn’t say much; he just clinked glasses with him and said indifferently, “I wish you happiness.”
Today was supposed to be a joyful engagent party, yet Li Beiting’s face bore no expression, it was even cold.
Upon hearing Shen Chi’s blessing, he curved his lips faintly and responded briefly: “Thank you.”
After that, he continued to mingle with other guests.
Under the bright and dazzling lights, Shen Chi narrowed his eyes at Li Beiting’s retreating figure.
There was a touch of loneliness in the stance of that man.
It had been a long ti since he communicated with Li Beiting, but from the fact that Li Beiting borrowed 65 million from him, it was clear the guy hadn’t forgotten Yu Weiwei at all.
