“You like Weiwei?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Why won’t you admit it, you do like her. Are all you men so secretive? Will you get pregnant if you admit it?”
Li Beiting’s mouth twitched.
“Hurry up and say it, otherwise I’ll introduce a boyfriend to Weiwei. Let me tell you, there are plenty of guys who like Weiwei.”
“Hm? A lot of people like her?”
“Yeah, the kind that could line up from the south gate to the north gate of the school. If you won’t admit it, then forget it.”
“Alright, alright, I just have a bit of a crush on her,” Li Beiting said helplessly.
“Liking someone isn’t something to be ashamed of, just say it and it’ll be fine,” Xu Chaomu chuckled. “But Li Beiting, you must treat Weiwei well, don’t scold her, don’t hit her, don’t give her a hard time.”
“I know.”
“Just don’t be like Shen Chi, he’s always scolding me,” Xu Chaomu pouted.
“Chaomu, don’t get involved with Weiwei in any more messy stuff, filling in the ‘male department’.”
“You know about it already? I think the ‘male department’ is pretty good. If one day you guys get sick, just come to us for free treatment, it’ll save money.”
“Don’t jinx us when there’s nothing wrong,” Li Beiting glanced at her.
“Oh, spit, spit, spit, ignore what I said. If you have any problems, then Weiwei’s lifetime ‘happiness’ won’t be guaranteed.”
“Look at you, not being serious again. If the fourth brother finds out, he’ll scold you so much you won’t know which way is up.”
“He’s just a hypocrite himself,” Xu Chaomu grumbled.
Chatting back and forth, Xu Chaomu’s mood significantly improved.
It was only when Li Beiting saw that it was getting late that he let Xu Chaomu return to the classroom.
By evening, when school was dismissed, Xu Chaomu was buried in homework and hadn’t realized that everyone else in the classroom had left.
Mr. Cheng entered the room at some point and knocked on Xu Chaomu’s desk.
“Miss Xu, I’m here to pick you up.”
“Hm? Uncle Cheng, where are you taking me?” Xu Chaomu was confused, as she lived at the school now and didn’t require Mr. Cheng to pick her up.
“To a place.”
“What place?”
“You’ll know once you come with me.”
“I’m not going, I still have a lot of homework to do,” Xu Chaomu shook her head.
“Consider it a favor to me,” Mr. Cheng said with a smile.
Because Mr. Shen had instructed him no matter what, he had to bring her to the Waterside Pavilion.
Kind-hearted as she was, Xu Chaomu felt it would be rude to refuse after hearing Mr. Cheng say that.
After pondering for a while, she reluctantly packed her books and followed Mr. Cheng into the car.
The Maybach raced along the broad road, a route that Xu Chaomu had never taken, arousing her curiosity.
“Uncle Cheng, where are you taking me?”
“To a small villa Mr. Shen has purchased.”
“I won’t go, I won’t go, let me out of the car, Uncle Cheng! I don’t want to see him,” Xu Chaomu said as she tried to pull the car door.
But the door was locked, and Mr. Cheng tried to reassure her, “Miss Xu, Mr. Shen isn’t a tiger, why are you so scared of him?”
“Uncle Cheng, you know very well, he went with me to get the certification done today, which means, from now on, I have nothing to do with the Shen family.”
“I can’t do anything about what you tell me, all I know is, Mr. Shen asked me to pick you up.”
“What does he want?”
“I don’t know.”
Xu Chaomu, her frustration building up, ruffled her hair. Finally, the car stopped in front of the Waterside Pavilion villa.
Although not as expansive as Jinxiu Tianxia, it had its own unique, exquisite charm.
Little bridges over flowing water, streams babbling. Waterfalls cascading onto rocks with a “whoosh” sound, the clear water slipping through the crevices of the stones.
The landscape was picturesque, the scenery elegant.
It was evening, and the afterglow of the sunset shone through the clouds onto the small villa, layering colors, bright and dazzling.
Swarms of swallows flew by overhead, adding an endless charm.
Xu Chaomu pursed her lips, This man, he really knows how to enjoy life.
“Miss Xu, please go ahead, Mr. Shen is waiting for you inside.”
“Uncle Cheng, are you leaving?”
“Yes, I still have errands to run.”
“I don’t want to stay with him, he’s up to no good.”
“Miss Xu, haven’t you known the fourth master for eight years? Aren’t you aware of his character?”
“Of course I am aware, he is superficially decent but a beast at heart; one way in front of others and another behind their backs; vulgar, lowbrow, pandering, and a shameless pretender.”
“Cough, cough.”
Mr. Cheng took a glance back and saw Shen Chi approaching, so he quickly coughed to alert Xu Chaomu.
“Also, he looks refined but he’s totally corrupt, with no morals or scruples, he is just…”
“It sounds quite like the real deal.” Shen Chi approached, speaking in a low, slow voice.
After having slept half the day, he looked much better, had taken another shower, changed into a simple dark shirt, and overall appeared refreshed and spirited.
“You guys chat, I’ll go get busy.” Mr. Cheng was very tactful.
But no matter what, Mr. Cheng couldn’t understand why Shen Chi, who was clearly very unwilling to let go of Xu Chaomu, had gone to get the certification.
It just didn’t make sense.
“Mumu, why do you love spreading rumors about me so much? Am I really worth nothing in your eyes?” Shen Chi looked at her, his voice full of grievance and helplessness.
“Right! Not worth a damn!” Xu Chaomu glared at him, brandishing her claws.
Shen Chi’s mouth twitched, these weren’t words a girl should speak.
Once again, he realized the failure in his family’s upbringing.
“Say it, what did you bring me here for? My time is precious, you know. The class president from Class Three has asked me to go to a movie, the study committee member from Class Five has invited me for fried chicken, oh, and the math delegate from Class Six asked me…”
“But tonight, you’re booked by me,” Shen Chi narrowed his eyes.
“Hmph, don’t forget, we’re nothing to each other now, we just got the certificate this morning.”
“Yeah, just this morning,” Shen Chi said with a narrow gaze, a sly smile on his lips. Just this morning… we got married.
It’s still hot off the press.
“You know and that’s good,” Xu Chaomu said disdainfully, “Let’s hear it then, say what you have to say.”
“Come inside with me,” Shen Chi said, pulling her hand dominantly, allowing no resistance.
Xu Chaomu tried to scratch him yet he didn’t react, tried to pull away but still, he gave no response.
Alright, she just gave up.
There’s no winning against this man with physical strength – she’s always on the losing end.
Damn it, a black belt in Taekwondo thinks he’s great! Damn it, having strength thinks he’s great!
Well, she admitted, it is impressive. For instance, right now, she couldn’t budge an inch.
Shen Chi pulled her into the house and closed the door.
The villa was cozy and warm, with a layout that was very inviting. The overall color scheme was the warm yellow of the lights, which felt very comfortable and pleasant.
The moment she looked up, she saw the beautiful crystal chandelier, dazzling and brilliant.
“You had me come here just to show off your wealth, right?” Xu Chaomu said nonchalantly.
“Pretty much,” Shen Chi laughed.
Did he really need to show off his wealth to her?
“Where’s Miss Bai? Not seeing you two showing off your love is a bit unusual for me.”
Shen Chi frowned, “You talk too much.”
After saying that, Shen Chi pulled her onto the sofa and tossed a few magazines at her.
