Chapter 784: Chapter 784: Have to try hard to have a daughter
Shen Chi curled his lips and stretched out his large hand, gently stroking her hair.
“Why do you still want when I’m so worthless?” Xu Chaomu asked, tilting her little face up to him.
“To save money,” Shen Chi said.
“Shen Chi, don’t tell you’re not planning to give a dowry?” Xu Chaomu said huffily.
“What else? That’s what you call saving money,” said Shen Chi, his lips curving upward ever so slightly.
“Swindler,” she teased.
...
“No business is clean.”
“But you’re the worst of them all.”
Xu Chaomu huffed a few tis, thinking that marrying a girl he had raised would indeed save a lot of money. Others like Li Beiting and Ji Shengxuan hadn’t done what he did. Shen Chi really is the greatest swindler!
“This is called ‘keeping the profits in the family,'” Shen Chi said, touching her head again with a smile.
Xu Chaomu gave him a disdainful glance, and just then, the green light turned on, and Shen Chi withdrew his hand and stepped on the gas.
After a few words, Xu Chaomu felt Shen Chi’s mood had eased a lot, not so severe anymore.
When he got serious, it always scared her a bit, feeling like sothing big was about to happen.
The Maybach moved steadily forward. It was the rush hour, and cars filled the streets, horns blaring incessantly, “beep, beep, beep, beep.”
The car’s headlights flickered nonstop, and Xu Chaomu watched intently, her gaze a little blurred.
Where was Shen Chi taking her?
At that ti, Shen Chi started the car’s CD player and switched to a piece of classical music.
It was rather dark inside the car. Xu Chaomu rested her cheek on her hand and quietly watched outside.
She listened to the music, slling the faint scent of lavender in the car, and felt very relaxed.
“Hungry?” Shen Chi asked lightly.
“A little,” Xu Chaomu replied.
“You ate so much at noon and you’re still hungry. Are you a pet pig?”
“…” Xu Chaomu rolled her eyes at him, “Then I’m not hungry anymore.”
“First, I’ll take you to eat.”
“Where to?”
“There’s a nice Western restaurant up ahead, just co with .”
“Corrupt! Have you eaten at all the high-end restaurants?” Xu Chaomu asked.
“Ji Shengxuan’s property, might as well eat if it’s free.”
“Oh? Ji the boss? I used to think he only had that one Weiyang Club. Seems like he also has restaurants and such?” Xu Chaomu was curious.
“Not just that.”
“Boss Ji is quite nice, but speaking of which, I haven’t seen him for a long ti.”
“Missing him?” Shen Chi’s eyes showed a hint of danger.
Uh… Xu Chaomu knew that she shouldn’t ntion any man other than Shen Chi, especially young n.
“As friends, can’t I even ntion them?” Xu Chaomu said with an innocent face.
“Friends? Since when did you beco friends with Ji Shengxuan? I didn’t notice that.”
“Well, just casual acquaintances, okay? Do you have to expose like that?”
Xu Chaomu had spoken to Ji Shengxuan only a handful of tis, but she always thought of Ji Shengxuan as a cunning fox, similar to Shen Chi.
Of course, if they weren’t sowhat similar, these two wouldn’t have beco friends.
With that thought, they both seed like dangerous individuals.
On the other hand, Li Beiting seed harmless and was rather straightforward.
“If you dare think about any man other than , I’ll throw you into the sea to feed the sharks!” Shen Chi threatened her.
“Boss Shen, I’m so scared,” Xu Chaomu said.
She leaned closer, staring at him intently, and put on a very frightened expression.
Shen Chi’s lips twitched as he glanced at her.
“Boss Shen, does that an I can’t even think about my son in the future?” Xu Chaomu asked, looking at him with innocent wide eyes.
“You know what I an,” Shen Chi said coldly.
“I don’t care, you must have forgotten about my son again!” Xu Chaomu seized the opportunity, “This is already the second ti you’ve forgotten about this little guy today. You’re really a very unqualified dad. With a dad like you, you definitely won’t be able to properly raise a child. You can’t even rember his existence, do you really care about him?”
“Xu Chaomu, stop arguing!” Shen Chi glared at her, trying to justify himself again.
Today was the second ti she had caught him slipping.
Xu Chaomu snorted and sat down, her hands caressing her belly.
“Baby, do you think your dad deserves a beating? Deserves a beating, doesn’t he? When you’re born, we’ll beat him up together.”
Shen Chi said she was carrying a son, and she suddenly felt that having a son wouldn’t be bad either—at least her son could help her.
“Are you sure he will help you beat when he’s born?”
Uh… Xu Chaomu’s hand paused as she touched her belly. She hadn’t really thought about that question.
What if this guy gets bought over by Shen Chi in the future? After all, Shen Chi is a swindler, and she couldn’t outplay a swindler.
“I think a daughter would be better, everyone says a daughter is closer to their mom. No matter what, a daughter is always on her mom’s side,” Shen Chi said blandly.
“Hm?” Xu Chaomu blinked, “I also think a daughter would be nice, just like , don’t you think?”
“So, try your best to have a daughter.”
“But you said I have a son in my belly.”
“We can have a second child,” Shen Chi said, “If that doesn’t work out, three…”
“Get lost!” Xu Chaomu snapped.
“Then do you still want a daughter? One like you, lively and cute, who loves to laugh and make trouble and fight,” Shen Chi tempted her.
“I…” Xu Chaomu hesitated.
“After that, you can comb her hair every day, buy her lots of pretty dresses, and take her to dance classes.”
“…” Xu Chaomu was deeply shaken.
“She’ll stick to you all day long, smile at you, play with you, ask you to teach her piano, ask you to attend parent-teacher conferences.”
“…” Xu Chaomu relented.
“I’ll think about it,” Xu Chaomu admitted, swayed by Shen Chi’s words.
How wonderful it would be to have a little girl. She could dress her up as Snow White or Barbie, buy her many beautiful dresses, just like her mother did for her.
“Hmm, this issue is worth serious consideration,” Shen Chi continued to persuade her, “Actually, giving birth isn’t that painful, especially the second ti around.”
Shen Chi was helpless; if he could, he would have given birth for her.
Xu Chaomu was silent, continuing to ponder.
“When you see your cute child smiling at you, you’ll forget all the pain. You’ll think that enduring pregnancy for ten months is all worth it,” Shen Chi said.
That talk really tugged at Xu Chaomu’s heartstrings.
She thought about it and seed to find so truth in it.
She wanted a little girl, too.
“Chaomu, do you think I’m right?” Shen Chi reasoned with her, appealing to her emotions.
He could already see that Xu Chaomu was tempted.
“It does seem quite right, I’ll seriously consider it,” Xu Chaomu said earnestly.
“Actually, there’s no need to think about it. If you want one, just have it. Your husband can afford it anyway.”
“Shen Chi.” Xu Chaomu suddenly turned her head, looking at him warily, “Tell , are you up to sothing again?”
“…” Shen Chi appeared innocent, “I just really like daughters, especially… the ones you give birth to.”
