If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 752: Chapter 752: Shen Chi Returns
 

Shen Cexian wasn’t wrong; she couldn’t afford even a balcony, a corner, or even a table in the Waterside Pavilion.

She gently lowered her eyelids, a trace of melancholy crossing the depths of her eyes.

“What are you standing there for? Kick her out!” Shen Cexian commanded.

“Yes, President Shen.” Two bodyguards immediately prepared to grab Xu Chaomu’s arms again.

Xu Chaomu stepped back and warned, “Don’t touch me!”

“President Shen, since the Waterside Pavilion belongs to my fourth brother, it’s not yours either, so what right do you have to kick me out of the Waterside Pavilion? If your logic holds, couldn’t I also kick you out?” she challenged.

“You’ve got quite the nerve,” Shen Cexian scoffed. “Ask them, who dares to kick me out?”

Shen Cexian glanced around at everyone in the living room; as expected, all the servants lowered their heads, none daring to look up at Shen Cexian.

Xu Chaomu knew they were definitely afraid of Shen Cexian.

“Take her away!” Shen Cexian roared again.

This time, the bodyguards showed no regard for Xu Chaomu’s dignity, grabbing her arms and dragging her toward the exit of the Waterside Pavilion!

“Let go of me, let go!” she demanded.

No matter how much Xu Chaomu shouted, they were expressionless; they were just following President Shen’s orders.

As they reached the living room door, Xu Chaomu refused to leave; she lowered her head and bit one of the men’s hands.

The man winced in pain, but their professional training kept them cool and composed as they continued to firmly hold Xu Chaomu, enduring the pain to take her out!

“Shen Cexian, you come looking for me when my fourth brother is not home because you’re clearly afraid!” Xu Chaomu refused to leave, standing at the doorway.

A cold smile played on Shen Cexian’s lips, “Afraid of what? I can kick you out tonight, and I can kick you to any corner I want! Xu Chaomu, you must pay the price for your youth and thoughtless words! When I decide to send you away, no one can find you!”

“Shen Cexian, I have always respected you because you are my fourth brother’s father. But now, five years later, you’ve been pushing me relentlessly, just as you did five years ago,” Xu Chaomu said calmly. “You have the power to send me away, to even have me killed with the flick of a finger. You can chase me to any place, and I can’t resist.”

Xu Chaomu paused for a moment and continued firmly, “Nevertheless, I still want to say, I love my fourth brother deeply.”

That was the only thing she could cling to—her love.

If one day that love crumbled, the world she relied on would end too.

“Even though he’s your half-brother from the same father, you still want to love him?” Shen Cexian sneered.

“As for that outcome, I don’t believe it, of course, I have no evidence. The decision lies with you,” Xu Chaomu responded.

“Heh, I think you’re just too obsessed, even refusing to believe in the paternity test report!”

Shen Cexian was losing patience, he wasn’t in good health to begin with, and he was tired of arguing with Xu Chaomu.

This time, he was determined to have her driven out of C City!

He really hadn’t expected her to return after five years.

And yet, even after coming back and getting pregnant, Shen Chi still liked her.

The few servants in the Waterside Pavilion were dumbstruck. What? Young Master Four and his wife are siblings?!

Everyone knew Young Master Four’s wife was adopted and not well received by the Shen Family, but they were siblings?!

Yet… the relationship between Young Master Four and his wife was known to be good…

All of them dared not make a sound, even as Xu Chaomu was about to be led out of the living room by the two bodyguards; they still didn’t dare to call Shen Chi.

No one dared to move, and the living room fell into a cold silence.

“By the way, I promised to give you money, and I did,” Shen Cexian said. “Now, you must go to the hospital to abort this child, then, leave C City!”

The moment Shen Cexian’s words were uttered, everyone was once again shocked!

They were speechless, their eyes as wide as cowbells!

Abort the child?

How much Young Master Four’s wife loved this child, they all had witnessed. Although it was said not to be Young Master Four’s, he loved the child too!

Asking Young Master Four’s wife to abort the child was like gouging a knife in her heart!

Xu Chaomu managed a bitter smile, “If you want to abort my child, you’ll have to let me die with it, because you will not touch him otherwise.”

“Threatening me? Good,” Shen Cexian turned his head, sneering. “You think I can’t bring myself to do it, or I won’t?” he warned deliberately, his gaze sharp and cold as he looked at Xu Chaomu.

“I know you’re powerful,” Xu Chaomu defied stubbornly, “but I’m just declaring my stance.”

She wouldn’t be able to overcome Shen Cexian, and if he truly forced her to abort her child, she wouldn’t let him get away with it.

All of a sudden, the room grew even quieter.

Xu Chaomu stood by the door, her face resolute.

She gritted her teeth, looking at Shen Cexian with determination. She would not yield!

“Take her out!” Shen Cexian ordered. “In the entire C City, no one born yet dares to defy my commands! Whatever I want to do, I’ll see who dares to stop me!”

Shen Cexian was resolute!

Upon receiving their orders, the two bodyguards grabbed Xu Chaomu’s arms and started to drag her out.

“Let go of me, let go!”

Xu Chaomu’s voice sounded desperate, especially under the night sky, it was heart-wrenching.

The two bodyguards behaved as if they were deaf, not hearing a thing, just knowing they needed to keep escorting Xu Chaomu away!

However, at that moment, suddenly, a black Maybach came to an abrupt stop, its car door flung open violently.

“Is that so? Father, no one dares to disobey your command?”

Shen Chi, still in his black suit, got out of the car, his voice harsh and icy. He strode forward with long steps towards the living room.

Under the night sky and the lights, the man cast a long shadow, the aura about him powerful enough to intimidate everyone present!

In his tone lay challenge, contempt, and of course, boundless rage and irritation.

Xu Chaomu was stunned, Shen Chi… he… how had he come back?

Wasn’t he attending a meeting in Washington?

In a few strides, Shen Chi stopped before Shen Cexian, towering over him, his gaze piercing.

Even Shen Cexian’s eyes flickered with a trace of doubt, but he quickly suppressed it, presenting an unflappable face to Shen Chi.

Unexpectedly, Shen Chi had returned.

Xu Chaomu kept her gaze fixed on his back. Apparently, because he had hurried back, there was a touch of weariness about him, but it did nothing to diminish his domineering and serious demeanor.

“Achi, I will handle this matter, I don’t wish for you to interfere!” Shen Cexian looked up at Shen Chi, saying coldly, “You two, take her out!”

Even as Shen Cexian was still issuing commands to his bodyguards, Shen Chi burst out shouting, “Let her go!”

That roar sent a wave of intimidation through everyone present.

They saw that Shen Chi’s eyes were red, filled with bloodshot veins, the whole of him like a lion incensed with wrath!
