Chapter 891: Chapter 891: How Many Tis Can a Woman Get Pregnant Chapter 891: Chapter 891: How Many Tis Can a Woman Get Pregnant Butler Ling went out anxiously looking for soone and happened to see a young servant watering the flowers. She asked, “Have you seen the Fourth Young Master and his wife?”
The young servant shook her head, “I haven’t seen the Fourth Young Master. As for the madam, I just saw her go out.”
She went out? Butler Ling looked around but didn’t see her.
“Where did she go?”
The young servant pointed ahead and said, “It seems she went to the small garden.”
“And none of you followed?”
“The madam didn’t ask us to follow, so we… didn’t dare.”
“Really are blockheads,” Butler Ling frowned.
She hurried towards the direction of the small garden. She had given them space to be alone, and Shen Chi actually hadn’t accompanied Xu Chaomu?
Upon reaching the small garden, sure enough, from a distance, Butler Ling saw Xu Chaomu sitting in the pavilion, chin propped on her hand, gazing into the distance.
She looked at Xu Chaomu’s back but couldn’t see anything abnormal about her; it seed Xu Chaomu was just like always, watching the scenery.
Butler Ling shook her head and silently walked up to her.
“Chaomu, are you enjoying the scenery by yourself?” Butler Ling said.
Xu Chaomu nodded her head, “Yes, the weather is so nice today, Butler. Look, there’s a row of wild geese in the distance.”
It was deep into autumn, and the sight of wild geese was a pleasant surprise; she hadn’t seen them in a very long ti.
The ecological environnt around the Shen Family estate was still very good, where one could often see so wild birds and rare fowls.
Butler Ling squinted and looked up, indeed, not far away, there were geese flying south, probably migrating to spend the winter.
“Why did you co out here alone, Chaomu?” Butler Ling asked with concern.
“It’s peaceful being alone. I don’t know since when I started liking this tranquility,” Xu Chaomu said, resting her cheek in her hand and looking toward the distance.
A pang of pain struck Butler Ling’s heart. Was this the Xu Chaomu she knew?
Ever since she t Xu Chaomu on the first day, she had been very lively. Xu Chaomu’s current deanor was unfamiliar to her.
She liked the lively and endearing Xu Chaomu, open and straightforward, whether she was laughing, making trouble, or even stirring up chaos. She liked her as long as she wasn’t silent and still.
“Chaomu, what’s wrong? You can talk to . If you trust , treat as your aunt,” Butler Ling moved to her side.
Xu Chaomu smiled, her lips curving into a faint smile, “I’m not unhappy, nor do I have any worries.”
“It must be the Fourth Young Master bullying you,” Butler Ling sighed.
“It’s nothing…” Xu Chaomu suddenly lowered her head, a flash of wistfulness in her eyes. She spoke slowly, “Actually… maybe it’s because we’ve been too close to each other, and we both need so space.”
Butler Ling was shocked to hear Xu Chaomu say such a thing; at least before, she wouldn’t have said this.
Both Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu are too stubborn. Sotis, Shen Chi gives in to Xu Chaomu, and sotis it’s the other way around, but neither is willing to back down together.
It must be their nature, Butler Ling sighed silently to herself, feeling truly at a loss.
Will it only be at a mont crucial as life and death, or during separation and bereavent, that the two of them will understand that being together is more important than anything else?
But if everyone could see this clearly, there would neither be farewells nor quarrels in the world.
Too many trivial attachnts blind everyone’s eyes; indeed, it’s the spectator who sees the ga best, not the players who are engrossed in it.
Butler Ling didn’t know how to persuade, can only heave a sigh that the players are lost in the ga…
During lunchti, Xu Chaomu didn’t go back, but sat alone in a small courtyard of the Shen Family.
This small courtyard was beautiful, adorned like a little castle from a fairy tale. Green ivy, stars-like starflowers, and flowers that bloom all year round. Even though all these decorations were fake, Xu Chaomu found them beautiful and they often brightened her mood.
She sat by a table in the courtyard and asked a servant to bring her lunch there.
Not having much appetite, she had Butler Ling prepare a sweet and sour spare rib rice, enjoying her al alone in the sun.
Butler Ling also noticed Shen Chi; Shen Chi didn’t co out of his room until after one in the afternoon.
At that ti, Xu Chaomu got sleepy and dozed off in a small room in the courtyard.
Looking out the window at the lush greenery, mories of the beautiful springti ca to her.
Spring was better, everything was, full of life and vitality that made one feel boundless energy.
At this mont, looking at the decorations outside the window, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Butler Ling generally wouldn’t dare to disturb Shen Chi, knowing his self-control was rather good and he didn’t allow her to ask too many questions.
Therefore, when Shen Chi ca downstairs to eat lunch at one in the afternoon, she ordered the kitchen to prepare a fresh al for Shen Chi.
“Butler Ling, go up to my room and put so commonly used items into my luggage. Don’t move anything that’s already in there,” Shen Chi said indifferently.
“Luggage?” Butler Ling was curious, “Young Master, where are you going?”
“Los Angeles, tomorrow morning.”
“Going abroad.” Butler Ling wasn’t prepared at all; it was so sudden that she was a bit shocked.
Shen Chi was soone who was very planned in his actions; he always prepared well in advance for a long trip. But this ti it was so abrupt—was it to avoid Xu Chaomu?
What exactly had happened this ti?
“Young Master, is it sothing urgent? Is it possible not to go abroad?” Butler Ling spoke to Shen Chi in this way for the first ti.
She usually wouldn’t go against Shen Chi’s wishes, nor did she dare, but today, she wanted so clarity, to at least make an effort.
“Transnational rger and acquisition,” Shen Chi replied, his face void of expression.
“Is it that important? How long will you be gone?” Butler Ling asked boldly.
She normally only obeyed Shen Chi and never dared to ask too much, but today, seeing Xu Chaomu, her heart ached…
“At least half a month.”
“Half a month!” Butler Ling’s eyes widened, “Young Master… that’s too long. If you can, please let Xiao Mo handle it. Half a month… frankly, it’s a bit too long.”
Without much thought, Butler Ling blurted out her response. Of course, it resulted in Shen Chi’s displeasure, for he didn’t like others inquiring too much into his affairs, especially if they weren’t his closest people.
Shen Chi frowned and pursed his lips, remaining silent.
Butler Ling realized her misstep, as Shen Chi always disliked others prying too much.
If his bottom line was crossed, he could beco very angry.
This was sothing Butler Ling understood very well after so many years with Shen Chi.
But the words were already spoken, so she boldly said a bit more, with the worst consequence likely being driven out of the Shen Family by Shen Chi.
“Young Master, excuse my overstep, but the Young Mistress has been pregnant for over seven months. A woman, how many tis can she beco pregnant in her life? Any pregnant woman would wish for her husband to be by her side every day. Pregnancy is truly arduous, with tis of being unable to eat or sleep,” Butler Ling said, mustering her courage.
