Chapter 807: Chapter 807: Ten Days Later, The Wedding
Butler Ling always liked seeing Xu Chaomu, especially when she smiled; there was sothing particularly innocent about it.
“Butler Ling, how is Uncle Cheng’s arm doing?” Xu Chaomu asked with concern.
“Much better, there are basically no major issues now. The hospital that Fourth Young Master found for him is quite good. His arm is just like before, no problems at all.”
“That’s good, I was worried that it might have been because of …” Xu Chaomu’s voice trailed off.
“No, no, that incident has nothing to do with you, Chaomu. You shouldn’t carry any psychological burden.” Butler Ling knew Xu Chaomu was kind-hearted and always felt that she had implicated Old Cheng.
“I’ll visit Uncle Cheng again another day.”
Butler Ling nodded, “Sure, I just told him yesterday that the Fourth Young Madam has been concerned about you.”
“The events of that night were just too terrifying. If not for Uncle Cheng, I don’t know what would have beco of .”
Butler Ling said, “Old Cheng was also at fault; he shouldn’t have taken you down that road, knowing full well how secluded it was.”
“Okay, Butler Ling, let’s not talk about this. By the way, is there any good news recently?”
Xu Chaomu entered the Shen Family mansion. She hadn’t been here for a while, and although the Shen Family always looked the sa, it was forever immaculate and ticulous.
With Butler Ling around, the Shen Family was always well-organized.
Butler Ling dismissed the servants and followed Xu Chaomu saying, “Good news… I don’t know if this counts…”
“What is it?” Xu Chaomu asked curiously.
“The Li Family sent the Shen Family an invitation, ten days from now, a wedding.” Butler Ling hinted but didn’t elaborate.
She felt that this might not be good news, because Xu Chaomu’s good friend Yu Weiwei was once Li Beiting’s first love.
“What?” Xu Chaomu was stunned, “In ten days?”
“Yes, I just delivered the invitation to the master and madam, and I guess Fourth Young Master has received one too.”
“I didn’t know that.” Xu Chaomu was a bit angry. Li Beiting is getting married to Mi Fei? What about Yu Weiwei?
Weren’t there rumors that Li Beiting and Yu Weiwei had secretly registered their marriage? What was this all about then?
Li Beiting truly was sothing else, registering his marriage with Yu Weiwei on one hand while getting married and walking down the aisle with Mi Fei on the other? What kind of situation was this!
“The news ca just these past couple of days, I heard the invitations have been sent out one after another, and Mr. Wen received one too,” Butler Ling inford her.
“Butler, have you seen Li Beiting recently?”
Butler Ling shook his head: “I rarely see him to begin with, and with the wedding approaching, he must be busy.”
“He’s really getting married?” Xu Chaomu still couldn’t believe it, looking baffled.
“Yes, there’s no mistake about it; the invitation clearly states so! Neither the Li Family nor the Mi Family would joke about such a matter!”
“No, I need to ask Shen Chi about it,” Xu Chaomu still had her doubts.
Is Li Beiting really such a person? If that’s true, then on the day of the wedding, she’d take Yu Weiwei there to confront him!
She couldn’t just stand by and let Li Beiting treat Yu Weiwei like this. If he wanted to marry Mi Fei, why did he even bother registering a marriage with Yu Weiwei?!
A man juggling two won was just too much!
“Chaomu, don’t worry, Fourth Young Master is coming back for lunch, isn’t he? You can ask him then. I’ll go prepare the al for you,” said Butler Ling.
“Alright,” Xu Chaomu nodded.
As soon as Butler Ling left, Xu Chaomu started pacing the living room.
A wedding in ten days?!
Everything was turned upside down; Li Beiting was really pushing his luck!
Yu Weiwei probably didn’t even know about it yet. She guessed Li Beiting wouldn’t dare to tell Yu Weiwei.
With Yu Weiwei’s temperant, it would be a surprise if she didn’t kill him.
Xu Chaomu paced anxiously in the living room and, finally, after much difficulty, he looked forward to noon when Shen Chi returned.
Xu Chaomu’s mind was so preoccupied with that one thing that he didn’t even have ti to go to the kitchen and help butler Ling.
As soon as Shen Chi entered, he changed into slippers and took off his suit jacket.
The mont he ca in, he saw Xu Chaomu’s restless deanor and frowned, “Mumu, are you troubled by sothing?”
Lunch hadn’t yet started, and Shen Chi sat on the couch, pouring himself a glass of red wine. The red liquid flowed slowly along the edge of the glass.
Shen Chi was always calm, it seed… only when Xu Chaomu was in trouble would he beco disturbed.
“Yes!” Xu Chaomu admitted without hiding anything.
“Hmm?”
Shen Chi picked up his wine glass and calmly looked at her.
“Shen Chi, be honest with , is Li Beiting getting married?” Xu Chaomu questioned him.
“Oh,” Shen Chi responded casually, “Isn’t that normal? Li Beiting is already engaged. Following that, shouldn’t he get married?”
“Excuse ?” Xu Chaomu’s face looked as if she had been slapped, and she yelled emotionally, “Didn’t he register for marriage with Weiwei?!”
“Calm down,” Shen Chi said. “This is also normal.”
“Damn it, in the eyes of you n, no, rich n, is it normal to have many wives and concubines?!”
“Yes, in the eyes of those rich n it is, but not including .”
“Get lost! Shen Chi, you and Li Beiting are cut from the sa cloth; neither of you are any good! Li Beiting actually dares to marry Mi Fei?! Shen Chi, was this nasty trick your idea?”
Shen Chi looked innocent: “How am I not a good person?”
“Whether you are a good person, you know in your heart!” Xu Chaomu was very angry.
Fortunately, at this point, butler Ling had several servants bring lunch in.
“Fourth Young Master, Fourth Young Master’s lady, the dishes are all served,” she said.
When butler Ling ca in, she glanced at them; the young couple seed to be having an argunt.
“Fourth Young Master’s lady, let help you over,” butler Ling offered as she walked over to Xu Chaomu’s side and took her arm, “I haven’t seen you in so many days, and you’ve gotten much bigger.”
Xu Chaomu was resentful, but she wouldn’t lash out at butler Ling.
She let butler Ling help her sit at the dining table, and she moved her lips slightly: “It’s been five months.”
“Yes, yes, I’ve also been keeping track of the days for you. This baby will surely be plump and white, especially adorable. I’m really looking forward to it,” butler Ling said.
Xu Chaomu smiled: “Butler Ling, he is a boy.”
“Ah? Did you find out?” Butler Ling was a bit surprised.
“Yeah. The doctor accidentally told , said it was a boy,” Xu Chaomu said with so regret, “Actually, I wanted a daughter; I even knitted a pink sweater.”
“Having a boy is also good,” butler Ling comforted her. She knew Xu Chaomu had always wanted a daughter, “But, you and the Fourth Young Master are still young. It’s not too late to have one or two daughters.”
Xu Chaomu held her forehead, as if having one or two children were such an easy thing…
“Fourth Young Master, Fourth Young Master’s lady, please take your ti eating.”
After speaking, butler Ling led the servants away, not wanting to disturb their mont together.
When Xu Chaomu sat down at the dining table, Shen Chi was still sitting on the sofa drinking his red wine, his expression calm and his features cold and charming.
“Co over, sit with ,” Xu Chaomu patted the seat beside her.
