Chapter 327: Chapter 327 The Little Rascal Became a Big Rascal

A faint smile actually appeared on his face, the surgery wasn’t done, and her child was saved.

About ten minutes later, the door to the operating room opened, and the doctors and nurses all walked out.

Shen Chi pushed everyone aside and rushed into the operating room, heading straight for the operating table!

“Mumu, Mumu, it’s okay now; if you want to keep this child, I won’t touch him anymore.”

He grabbed her ice-cold hand and placed it against his lips, gently kissing it.

Xu Chaomu lay on the operating table with her eyes closed, her complexion pale.

Tears still marked her cheeks, and she lay there quietly, like a powerless rag doll.

“Should I also thank you for sparing my child’s life, Mr. Shen?” Xu Chaomu said weakly.

A pain more severe than a knife wound suddenly pierced Shen Chi’s heart, and his face was full of astonishment.

“Mumu, five years have passed, do you still hate me?”

“It’s not about hate; if it weren’t for today’s encounter, I think I would have forgotten what you looked like.”

Those words struck him like thunder.

Indifference is more terrifying than hatred.

Shen Chi was instantly stunned; he didn’t know what to say.

All words seemed pale in comparison.

Xu Chaomu kept her eyes closed, resting quietly. Her hand brushed her lower abdomen, relieved that the little life was still there.

She didn’t know whether it was a boy or a girl, though she preferred a girl a little more.

The operating room was silent, Shen Chi holding Xu Chaomu’s hand tightly, unwilling to let go…

During that time, the weather was exceptionally good, with the blinding sun hanging in the sky, the summer air especially intense.

Xu Chaomu had been recuperating in the hospital for three days, with Shen Chi constantly by her side, refusing to let her be discharged.

Xu Chaomu didn’t seem to care at all; one day’s delay was no loss to her.

But it was different for him; one wasted day for him meant losing billions in assets.

Alright then, let’s just drag it out.

“Mr. Shen, aren’t you bored?”

Xu Chaomu, holding a magazine, shot him a disdainful glance.

Shen Chi was sitting on the sofa opposite her, doing nothing but watching her.

Five years had not seen each other, a full five years.

No amount of looking seemed enough.

“Why would I be bored?”

“I’m not a toy, nor am I food; you talk as if one look at me would satisfy you,” Xu Chaomu said with disdain.

“A toy can be played with, you can too; food can be eaten, you can too. It’s the same principle really,” said someone with a smirk.

“Get lost!”

Damn it, Xu Chaomu threw the magazine at him with a “thud”!

A dog can’t spit out ivory!

The magazine headed straight for Shen Chi’s handsome face without deviation!

Fortunately, Shen Chi’s reflexes were fast enough to catch it before it hit his face.

“Mumu, you really have a heavy hand,” Shen Chi tugged at the corner of his mouth, not annoyed at all.

“Mr. Shen, do you plan to just sit here in the hospital and watch me?”

“Mhm,” he replied earnestly, “what would I do if you ran away?”

“I’m saying, Mr. Shen, have you not had any sex life for these five years?”

Xu Chaomu opened her bag nonchalantly and took out a small mirror, looking at herself from different angles.

“Xu Chaomu, have you no shame, how can a girl say such things?!”

“Yo yo yo, enraged with embarrassment? Oh… I forgot, you can’t do it, Mr. Shen. I’ve heard from Weiyang’s clients that women could sit on your lap, and you’d have no reaction,” Xu Chaomu said, not raising her head, continuing to look at her little mirror.

“Xu Chaomu, would you like to try now or right away?”

Shen Chi got angry; he could bear being scolded, he could bear being hit, but being told he was inadequate, he couldn’t bear!

He stepped forward, his hands braced on either side of her, trapping her under his chest.

“Hm? Why so quiet now? Want to try it on the bed, on the floor, or maybe… in the bathtub?”

He was merely inches away from her, his gaze smiling and full of innuendo.

The delicate fragrance of a young woman wafted through the air, now matured since five years before.

Being close to her, he was enveloped by that familiar scent.

Just a slight bend of the head, and he could touch the tip of her nose!

He scrutinized her closely; five years had passed, and without the greenness of youth, she’d become more enduring to the gaze.

She was his Mumu, Xu Chaomu, whom he’d made a lifelong promise to.

Suddenly, he missed her taste; he wanted to kiss her.

“Move, move, move aside, I’m not interested in you. Abroad, I’ve seen all kinds of men,” Xu Chaomu said, pushing him away as if it was nothing.

Shen Chi’s face immediately darkened, and he suddenly remembered the child in her belly.

But that child was a line he wouldn’t easily cross.

Once crossed, their relationship would become a full-blown battle!

No problem, she’s young, he could be a bit indulgent.

“Mumu, you’ve gone from being a little hooligan to a big one,” he said as he touched her cheek, a habitual action that he hadn’t changed even after five years.

“No, I used to play the hooligan only in words, but now I really am one,” Xu Chaomu glared at him.

“Is that so? Play the hooligan with me then.”

“Sorry, I’m not interested in you,” Xu Chaomu said, continuing to look into her little mirror. After she finished, she took a small embroidered box from her bag.

A red embroidered box, small and exquisite, decorated with a beautifully stitched peony pattern, bright and captivating.

She gently opened the embroidered box, and upon opening it, a diamond ring was revealed!

A platinum diamond ring, inlaid with a dazzling diamond.

Xu Chaomu took off the ring and put it on her finger.

She looked at it from the left, then from the right, unable to put it down.

“Mr. Shen, is the diamond ring pretty?”

“It’s pretty, and then what?”

“My husband gave it to me.”

“Hmm? I never gave you this ring.”

“Shameless.”

Xu Chaomu slammed the jewelry box shut with a “bang” and lifted her hand to admire her ring.

The sunlight streamed in through the curtains just right; the summer sun was especially pleasant, even the dust particles carried a warm scent.

She liked summer because it always gave people countless hopes.

Light hit the ring, and the diamond reflected a myriad of colors.

Xu Chaomu, realizing belatedly while looking at the ring, suddenly touched her neck, “Where’s my necklace? What happened to my necklace?”

Her neck was bare, no sign of a necklace.

“Your necklace is missing? What does it look like? I’ll help you look for it.”

Someone immediately put on a concerned expression, pretending to search around the bed and everywhere else.

He was skilled at feigning a scene.

On the bed, in the cabinet, on the sofa, inside the clothes…

No trace was found anywhere!

Xu Chaomu became anxious: “It’s a pendant necklace with a rose design, very beautiful.”

“Really? I’ve never seen this necklace; could you have lost it at some point?”

“Lost it? Impossible, I’ve always worn it around my neck,” Xu Chaomu said, looking puzzled.

“Think harder; could you have placed it somewhere? Bathroom? Washroom?”

Xu Chaomu grew more anxious: “I’ve always worn it around my neck, how could it just disappear?”
