Chapter 783: Chapter 783: Did You Really Kill ngxi?
Today wasn’t too bad, Shen Cexian’s mood had few ups and downs, perhaps he was getting used to it.
Zhou Ran took a pill from the dicine box and handed it to him, “Take your dicine, then get so sleep after you’re done.”
“Achi said he would co over tonight.”
“Let him co, you’re not afraid of him anyway.”
“Of course, I’m not afraid of him. He wouldn’t dare do anything to , his father. He just takes advantage of the fact that I’m old and can’t manage him anymore,” Shen Cexian said indignantly.
“It’s not that. He’s just been bewitched by Xu Chaomu, lost all his rationality,” Zhou Ran said lightly.
...
“Yes, Achi used to be so rational, always thinking through every decision, never this impulsive.”
“That girl, she’s not even that pretty, nor is her personality particularly gentle, and she has no outstanding talents. I really don’t know what Achi sees in her,” Zhou Ran shook her head.
“It shows the girl has her ways,” said Shen Cexian with a sigh.
Zhou Ran passed him the water cup, “Indeed, five years ago, she was always hanging around Achi. Back then, I warned her to keep her distance from Achi and even told her to leave him, but she wouldn’t listen.”
“Aran, tell the truth,” Shen Cexian looked at her, “Did you really kill ngxi? Tell the truth, I’ve never believed it.”
A hint of hesitation flashed across Zhou Ran’s gaze. After a long pause, she said, “Take your dicine, it’s going to get cold.”
“Aran, you…”
“There’s nothing worth bringing up,” Zhou Ran shook her head.
Shen Cexian saw the change in her expression and sighed inwardly, not pressing her further.
He picked up the pill from Zhou Ran’s hand and swallowed it, one by one.
The dication had a drowsy component, and after a while, Shen Cexian began to nod off.
Zhou Ran remained silent as he closed his eyes, growing sleepier.
“Aran, if you have sothing else to do, go ahead; I’m going to nap.”
“I don’t have anything. You sleep, I’ll watch over you. I’ll wake you up when it’s ti,” she said.
“Is Achi really coming tonight?”
“He will,” Zhou Ran said with certainty.
She knew Shen Chi’s character well; if he said he would co, then he definitely would. But she wondered if it was still about Xu Chaomu’s father’s issue.
Nevertheless, since Shen Cexian was determined not to tell him, his coming would be in vain, wouldn’t it?
Zhou Ran didn’t ponder further and gently tucked Shen Cexian in.
Shen Cexian closed his eyes, and the effects of the dicine worked quickly, sleepiness washing over him in waves.
In this neither cold nor hot weather, it was easy to fall asleep, and it wasn’t long before Shen Cexian was asleep.
After he fell asleep, Zhou Ran sat on the sofa, silently reading a book.
The guards outside the sick room were all Shen Chi’s people. Anywhere they wanted to go was under Shen Chi’s surveillance.
Shen Chi had left them so dignity; the people outside the sick room were all watching in secret and did not enter or exit the room.
The sky gradually darkened, with early autumn nights coming earlier and earlier.
As night approached, the weather turned cooler, the dying sun cast its rays onto the water, and half of the river glimred a dusky crimson.
Xu Chaomu had finished the design drawings. Aside from an introduction to write for the project, there wouldn’t be much else for her to do.
The end of the work day arrived, and her colleagues from the design departnt left one after another.
“Chaomu, why aren’t you leaving? Thanks for the chocolate this morning, it was delicious. I’ve been thinking about it all day; sigh, I don’t know when I’ll be able to taste it again,” said a female colleague.
Xu Chaomu smiled, “I’ll be leaving soon. As for the chocolate, if there’s a chance, I’ll have my husband bring so more.”
But even as she said that, Xu Chaomu stuck out her tongue; she can’t be that wasteful, right?
Saving so money for the baby’s formula would also be good!
Her colleagues quickly left the design departnt, and Xu Chaomu slowly packed up her bag.
She wanted to wait until they had gone so she could sneak off to the CEO’s office to find Shen Chi on her own.
However, before she could leave, Shen Chi had already called her.
The phone rang, and the screen flashed with the words “Husband.”
A young girl saw it and teased with a smile, “Chaomu, it’s your husband’s call, pick up! We won’t disturb you anymore; we’re heading ho now, bye!”
Xu Chaomu answered, lowering her voice, “What’s up?”
“et in the company’s garage after work.”
“Huh? Are you coming ho with ?”
“Just co over!”
“Oh,” Xu Chaomu murmured.
Done talking, Shen Chi hung up the phone.
In the evening, they usually didn’t go ho together. Sotis Shen Chi was busy with work, etings, or social engagents, and she would occasionally work late but mostly left work on ti.
Today, Shen Chi suddenly wanted her to wait for him in the garage?
Was there sothing going on, or possibly so surprise?
But as soon as Xu Chaomu rembered that Shen Chi was a man with no sense of romance, she thought it was better not to expect any surprises.
After packing up her things, most of the people in the design departnt had left.
She slowly made her way towards the garage, knowing how to get to the CEO’s private garage because Shen Chi had given her an access card.
The garage was spacious, and once inside, Xu Chaomu paced back and forth, waiting for him.
About fifteen minutes later, Shen Chi ca down from above.
He was wearing a black suit that made him look stern and profound, his deep blue tie ticulously knotted on his shirt.
“I’m over here,” Xu Chaomu called out waving to him.
“Get in,” Shen Chi took out the car keys and opened the door.
“What about the driver?” Xu Chaomu curiously asked, how co it was Shen Chi driving again?
“Get in the car!” Shen Chi repeated.
“Can’t you talk nicely?” Xu Chaomu muttered, looking at him with disdain.
Xu Chaomu sat in the passenger seat, and once she was settled, Shen Chi started the car and drove out of the garage.
By this point of early autumn, the sky had already darkened, with streetlights lining up brightly along the roads, bustling with cars and pedestrians.
Shen Group was located in the city’s center, a pri location with a geographic advantage. The area was illuminated with bright lights and bustling activity.
“Where are we going?” Xu Chaomu asked curiously again.
She turned to look at Shen Chi, whose brows were furrowed under the low-hanging night sky, his back straight, his eyes as deep and mysterious as the ocean.
Every ti Xu Chaomu saw Shen Chi with that expression, her heart skipped a beat.
Was there sothing important going on?
“Just follow ,” Shen Chi said flatly.
To lighten the mood, Xu Chaomu pursed her lips, “You’re not planning on selling , are you? Though I’m not worth much, especially as a pregnant woman, I could still buy you a few als.”
“Are you sure it’s not you who would have to pay?”
They reached a red light, and Shen Chi stopped the car, turning to look at her.
“…” Xu Chaomu felt an urge to punch him.
