Chapter 335: Chapter 335 If You Dare Touch My Baby

“Mumu, you’re a little fairy…”

His hot breath spilled into her ear, his breathing rapid and rough.

He couldn’t control himself anymore. He had restrained himself for so many years, so many times he’d rather take a cold shower than touch her.

Initially, it was because he thought she was too young. If he took her then, it would be the same as soliciting a minor. Later, because he was going to South Africa and his life was uncertain, he wanted to leave her untouched. If he didn’t come back, at least she could still marry someone else.

But now, look what happened—she came back with another man’s child in her womb.

Thinking of this, he bit down hard on her lips.

“Shen Chi, do you not despise me for sleeping with so many men?”

Xu Chaomu was out of breath, her words intended to be forceful, but they came out sounding almost coquettish.

“Good, you’ve got experience. Let me have a taste of that later…”

“I—I’ve even done adult films. Can you—can you still go through with it?”

“Oh? Then show a bit more enthusiasm later…”

A man out of his mind is like a wolf; no amount of disgust can deter him.

“You—you let me go… I’m still carrying a baby… You can’t do this to me…”

“The baby won’t be harmed. Besides, I have no need to care about this child!”

Shen Chi was somewhat infuriated. Saying he didn’t care was a lie—how could any man be indifferent upon seeing the woman he loved most carrying someone else’s child?

He admitted that he wasn’t magnanimous enough for that.

He was a normal man, after all.

“If you dare touch my baby, I swear to you, I’ll fight to the death!”

Xu Chaomu’s eyes reddened in panic, she raised her hand, ready to slap Shen Chi across the face!

Shen Chi reacted quickly, grabbing her wrist, preventing her from moving!

Her unlanded strike was like a bucket of cold water that instantly put out all of his desire.

Had things between them really reached the point of physical confrontation?

Their eyes met, and he saw hatred in hers; she saw indifference in his.

Xu Chaomu bit her lip, her big eyes unblinking as she continued to stare at him.

Pain coursed through her wrist where he held her, while the other hand covered her belly, fiercely protecting her child.

The two remained in a deadlock for five minutes until, finally, Shen Chi let go of her hand!

With a flick of his wrist, he turned his face away, refusing to look at her again.

His back was ramrod straight, facial lines tense, not even a hint of a smile to be seen. His whole being radiated a chilling air.

The man now was completely different from the one he had been moments earlier.

Xu Chaomu somewhat relaxed; this man’s mood was like the weather in June, unpredictable.

But as long as he didn’t touch her child, she wouldn’t hold any grudges.

The Maybach drove into the Shen Family villa and made its way to the garage.

During the drive, nobody spoke a word.

Shen Chi’s lips were firmly set, his eyes fixed ahead of him filled with endless coldness.

Meanwhile, Xu Chaomu straightened her clothes and hair, then took out a small mirror to check herself.

Damn it, there were marks all over her neck left by him.

And it just had to be summer when the collars are low-cut; how was she supposed to face Butler Ling later?

Returning after five years to be seen like this?

She leaned back in the seat, stealing glances at the man who sulked with pursed lips, silent, without a single movement.

Old Cheng parked the car in the garage. Throughout the drive, he had not once put down the partition.

Only now did he lower it, glancing back: “Mr. Shen, we’ve arrived.”

Neither person in the back said a word, as if they were both in a bad mood again.

Old Cheng thought, a little spat is okay; it’s better than its distance between them.

In Old Cheng’s eyes, he of course hoped Xu Chaomu would end up with Shen Chi.

After all, over the past five years, he had watched Shen Chi torment himself over Xu Chaomu.

Now Xu Chaomu was back. If they could be together, how wonderful that would be.

But… Xu Chaomu was carrying another man’s child and was about to get engaged. Could they still come together?

To the Xu Chaomu of five years later, there was no more clinginess or fondness for Shen Chi.

Previously, Old Cheng saw in Xu Chaomu’s eyes nothing but adoration for Shen Chi, always sticking close by his side. But now…

“Hmm,” Shen Chi responded indifferently.

Old Cheng, having received Shen Chi’s acknowledgment, hurriedly got out to open the door for him.

“Mr. Shen, please.”

Shen Chi didn’t even glance at Xu Chaomu. Adjusting his tie, he stepped out of the car and walked out of the garage.

His anger had not yet subsided, and his whole demeanor seemed tense and upset.

His stride was unwavering as he walked out of the garage, silent.

Old Cheng hurried to open the door for Xu Chaomu: “Miss Xu, please come out. Go with Mr. Shen; he won’t be mad at you.”

“I’m not going. I’ve changed my mind. I have nothing to do with him; why should I care about his mood? He always puts on such a face—who’s he doing it for?”

“Miss Xu, Mr. Shen cares about you.”

“Uncle Cheng, you’re with him every day, you should know. Shen Chi has so many women he can’t count them all. Oh, right, wasn’t there a woman named Jian Sisi today making a scene?”

“You’ve misunderstood Mr. Shen. In his heart, other than you, there is no one else. Please believe in him.”

“He just tried to hit me. Tell him to apologize to me. If he apologizes, then I’ll get out.”

Xu Chaomu played the victim, acting stubbornly. She was certain Shen Chi would never apologize to her.

“Hit you? Impossible. How could Mr. Shen bear to hit you…” Old Cheng shook his head, not believing it.

“I don’t care, he tried to hit me. If he doesn’t apologize, I’m leaving.”

“Miss Xu, this is a residential area, it’s hard to get a cab here.”

“Then you could drive me, Uncle Cheng, or I could walk back on my own.”

“I can’t just leave the Shen Family like that.”

Xu Chaomu gritted her teeth; Old Cheng’s implication was clear: either walk back by herself or go along with Shen Chi.

Just as she was about to speak, Shen Chi, who had reached the garage door, stopped.

He frowned and said, “What are you muttering about?”

“Mr. Shen, Miss Xu refuses to come down…” Old Cheng replied.

“Then leave her in the car. If she feels stifled, she’ll get out on her own!”

“Shen Chi, you’re a real piece of work!”

Xu Chaomu roared and hurled a cushion from the car at Shen Chi’s back!

“Mr. Shen, this isn’t right. Miss Xu… she’s still pregnant…” Old Cheng’s voice dropped.

After all, it wasn’t Shen Chi’s child, and he feared further words would only anger him.

“I’m not forcing her. It’s a multiple-choice question that she has to answer for herself,” said Shen Chi indifferently.

“Fine, you want to make a choice for me? Can’t I walk out by myself?”

Xu Chaomu was also stubborn, and as soon as the words left her mouth, she flung open the car door and leaped out!

“Miss Xu, where are you heading? You’ve come all this way. Don’t you want to see Butler Ling? She’s missed you so much over the past five years that her hair has almost turned white…” Old Cheng said.
