Chapter 952: Chapter 952: A Boring Woman Chapter 952: Chapter 952: A Boring Woman “Take it back and have a good look!” Xu Chaomu feigned anger, “If you still don’t like it, then consider giving the photo to !”
Xu Chaomu said this on purpose, thinking that it would be better for the photo to be with Wen Zhiyuan than to stay at the Shen Family.
Xu Chaomu stood up and walked over to Wen Zhiyuan, directly tossing the photo into his coat pocket.
“This…” Wen Zhiyuan was utterly helpless, having no way to deal with Xu Chaomu.
Now that the photo was in his coat pocket, he had no choice but to leave it there, reluctant to take it out again in front of Xu Chaomu.
“Alright, let’s talk about sothing else.” Xu Chaomu was much happier now, settling back into the sofa.
“What’s for lunch?” Wen Zhiyuan asked.
“We don’t need to discuss that, Shen Chi has already prepared a lavish lunch, just waiting for the other lazybones to arrive,” Xu Chaomu said.
Wen Zhiyuan saw that Xu Chaomu’s personality remained the sa as before, but her feigned calmness made him feel very uncomfortable.
He had witnessed Xu Chaomu crying helplessly in the rain and had seen her lying on the cold operating table, voluntarily requesting the removal of her child…
Having witnessed many of Xu Chaomu’s painful mories, he couldn’t figure out whether her current strength was genuine or a pretense.
“Do I know the other friends?”
“You know all of them.”
“Okay.” Wen Zhiyuan guessed it was probably Li Beiting and the others.
“Doctor Wen, you’ve lost a lot of weight recently. Make sure to eat up later, don’t be polite with us, we’re all family,” Xu Chaomu said, especially emphasizing the last part deliberately.
“Hmm.”
The two of them chatted for quite a while, mostly with Xu Chaomu talking and Wen Zhiyuan listening.
Wen Zhiyuan was patient and wouldn’t argue with Xu Chaomu, who also liked to talk to him.
They chatted over tea.
Before long, Shen Chi ca in.
“Fourth Young Master,” Wen Zhiyuan greeted him.
“You’re here. Xu Chaomu has been nagging about wanting to talk to you for the past few days. It’s good you’ve finally co, otherwise she would have worn out my ears.”
“Look who’s talking,” Xu Chaomu muttered, uncovering her own shortcomings again.
“Go out and see, Weiwei is here,” Shen Chi said.
“Hmm? Weiwei is here? Alright, then I’ll go have a look. Keep Doctor Wen company, I’ll be back in a bit.”
After speaking, Xu Chaomu left the living room with the help of a servant.
With her gone, only Shen Chi and Wen Zhiyuan were left in the room.
Shen Chi lost his smile and beca more somber.
“Zhiyuan, no matter what, don’t tell her about her father’s issue for the ti being. It’s been a long ti since the last paternity test, but I’ve never dared to speak up. Even now, I dare not ntion it,” Shen Chi said.
“I know,” Wen Zhiyuan nodded, “Moreover, Chairman Shen has always been tight-lipped, hasn’t he? We don’t even know whose blood was used that ti.”
“So, don’t speak of it. When the day cos that she wants to know about her father, I will tell her then, it won’t be too late.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t say anything I shouldn’t,” Wen Zhiyuan said, “Doctors value precision, and this matter, to , is an imprecise predicant. So, rest assured.”
Shen Chi nodded, “I’m relieved. I don’t want her to worry anymore during this ti.”
“You’re right; we should hold gatherings like this more often and invite a few of our friends over for a al,” Wen Zhiyuan teased.
Shen Chi laughed, “Like I could really invite you.”
As they were talking, Xu Chaomu returned to the living room with Yu Weiwei and Li Beiting in tow.
The living room suddenly beca much more lively, and even the butler Ling felt that the Shen Family hadn’t been this lively for a long ti.
It was good to have a lively atmosphere, at least, Xu Chaomu liked it. Such liveliness also made it less easy for people to think about things they shouldn’t.
Butler Ling warmly greeted them and had also prepared a luxurious lunch for them.
Once everyone had arrived, Shen Chi led them to the Shen Family’s big lawn.
Xu Chaomu and Yu Weiwei walked side by side, talking softly to each other.
Yu Weiwei didn’t understand until she beca pregnant herself that children are truly little angels sent from heaven. And she felt very sad every ti she thought about the premature birth and how Chaomu had lost her child.
Sotis, when the baby in her belly kept her up at night, she would think of Xu Chaomu.
During those tis, she would wake Li Beiting up, insisting that he keep her company and talk for a while; otherwise, she would really get depressed.
Thankfully, now it seed that Xu Chaomu didn’t suffer from any postpartum distress syndros, which had slightly eased her mind.
The midday sun was very pleasant, warming everyone with its gentle rays. The lawn was set with a very long table, covered with a sky-blue tablecloth, and on the table were champagne, red wine, and various drinks.
The sunlight shined on the glass cups, which reflected a rainbow of dazzling colors.
The long table also had a variety of buffet food, with many choices that emitted tempting aromas and colors.
There were several bouquets of fresh flowers on the table, including roses and lilies.
Xu Chaomu noticed that Shen Chi had put a lot of effort into the arrangent.
“Chaomu, your husband is really good to you,” Yu Weiwei whispered in Xu Chaomu’s ear.
Xu Chaomu just smiled and said nothing.
When everyone had gathered, they all started to dine.
Shen Chi specially prepared a chair for Xu Chaomu, asking her to sit as much as possible and not to walk around. As for what she wanted to eat, he would take care of it for her.
Xu Chaomu sat there, chatting with Yu Weiwei for a bit and then with Wen Zhiyuan.
Among all the people there, Xiao Mo was the quietest, while Yu Weiwei was quite noisy.
Seeing Yu Weiwei and Li Beiting so affectionate with each other, she felt relieved.
Ji Shengxuan indeed brought his big yellow cat along, and the cat wasn’t shy at all. Xu Chaomu could hold it, and it didn’t hide.
“This cat is really beautiful,” Xu Chaomu exclaid, “So clean and cute.”
“ow…”
The big yellow cat seed to understand Xu Chaomu, squinting its eyes happily, lying contentedly on her lap.
Ji Shengxuan said, “Ordinary house cats are very prim and proper in front of strangers, but they’re wild at ho.”
“Really? I like cats like this the most. What’s its na?”
“Ahuang.”
Pfft.” Xu Chaomu couldn’t help but laugh, “Ji Boss, you’re really casual with nas.”
“I didn’t na it. It was an uninteresting woman who did,” Ji Shengxuan said coolly, his tone even.
Xu Chaomu suddenly rembered sothing, an uninteresting woman? Was he talking about Weiyang?
If this na was given by Weiyang, then the cat must also belong to Weiyang, right?
But Weiyang didn’t seem like a completely uninteresting woman. Although Ahuang was not a nice-sounding na, the na she gave her son was actually quite good.
This thought made Xu Chaomu rember Su Shaoyan whom she had t in the hospital.
Now, she looked at Ji Shengxuan a few more tis, there was a resemblance, indeed very similar.
