Chapter 528: Chapter 528: Pregnant Women are Very Sexy

She scratched for a while, finally reaching the palm of his hand.

This time, Shen Chi let go of her and his deep gaze fell upon her face.

She thought he was angry, but then she considered, what did he have to be angry about? If anyone should be angry, it was her.

Her whole body was drenched, she had kindly offered to bathe him, and he had even forcefully kissed her. Just now… she had simply scratched him a bit…

He looked at her without speaking, but his hand firmly pressed against her back.

Xu Chaomu’s eyelashes still had droplets on them, and as she blinked looking at him, she wondered, was he really angry?

After a long while, he grabbed her hands, lifting them in front of his eyes.

“Scratching so fiercely, are you a cat or a dog?” Shen Chi examined her fingernails.

“…” Xu Chaomu tried to pull her hands away forcefully, just knowing he couldn’t say anything nice.

“No matter what I am, you already kissed me anyway,” Xu Chaomu said indignantly.

Her fingernails had been trimmed the day before yesterday, very clean.

“I haven’t kissed you enough,” he said, his deep gaze still on her.

At this moment, Xu Chaomu’s cheeks were flushed, her long black hair hanging over her chest, exuding more charm and sensuality than before.

His hand unconsciously moved to her neck, slowly sliding down…

Her pajamas were already completely wet as he brushed aside the hair on her chest, his slender fingers moving to her neckline, prying open her pajamas.

Xu Chaomu slapped his hand away, preventing him from succeeding, “Are you going to bathe or not, if not, I’m leaving.”

With that said, she tried to climb out of the bathtub.

Her current state even made herself look like a too mischievous cat that had accidentally fallen into water.

His large hand pressed down on her, stopping her from moving.

“How about we bathe together?” someone suggested with a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth.

Xu Chaomu threw a soaking wet towel onto his handsome face, angrily declaring, “Who wants to bathe with you, pervert!”

Shen Chi calmly removed the towel, but by the time he did, she had already climbed out of the bathtub.

“Be careful not to catch a cold,” he said to her, his voice flat.

“Oh.”

Xu Chaomu gave him a glance, he still knew how to show concern. If it weren’t for him, how could she have ended up in such a sorry state.

“Go change, I can bathe myself,” Shen Chi said.

His gaze was deep yet reluctant, having not seen her for so many days, he wanted to look at her every second.

It seemed, no matter how much he looked, it was never enough.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have driven his car to find her after their argument.

He was not someone who liked to concede, nor did he like to take the initiative to admit fault, but when it came to Xu Chaomu, he was helpless.

Of course, one day, he would tame this little wild cat.

Her hair, just dried, was now half-wet again, and her pajamas were completely soaked through.

The thin clothes clung tightly to her body, outlining her beautiful figure.

Shen Chi watched her intently, this time, under the thin layer of fabric, he clearly saw the rounded protrusion of her abdomen.

Pregnant women are very sensual, and so was she.

He kept looking at her, and Xu Chaomu snorted, “Then I’ll go change, bathe yourself.”

With that, she quickly ran away, because she had caught a dangerous message in the eyes of this wolf.

With a “bang,” the bathroom door was closed behind her.

It wasn’t until Xu Chaomu had left, that Shen Chi turned his head.

Just now when she had thrown herself on him, all the fire within him was drawn out by her, with no choice left, he adjusted the water to cold to douse the burning flame.

Ever since she returned to C City five years later, he had taken more than one cold shower.

No helping it, since she was a pregnant woman.

After rushing out of the bathroom, Xu Chaomu went to the closet to get another set of pajamas.

All drenched, she dried her body and changed into clean pajamas.

She didn’t even know if his injured arm would allow him to bathe properly.

She didn’t care about him anymore, anyways she had already scrubbed him quite thoroughly just now.

After changing into new pajamas and blow-drying her half-wet hair, she lay down on the bed.

The curtains outside were showing light; it wouldn’t be long before it was completely bright outside.

The curtains in her room were very thick. She switched off the bedside lamp with a gesture, and now, she couldn’t see much light, only the sound of running water from the bathroom.

The moment she turned off the light, she burrowed into the comforter, yawning.

When Shen Chi came out, Xu Chaomu was already quiet, asleep.

He wore a gray nightgown, quietly approaching her side.

Her little paws gripped the comforter tightly, sleeping soundly. Her long lashes lay over her eyelids, and the blush on her face had faded away. Now, with her claws retracted, she appeared especially docile.

Shen Chi loved watching her sleep, so obedient.

But then again, he loved her no matter what.

He sat by the bed, touching her fingers.

Xu Chaomu gave no response.

Shen Chi found her even more adorable, and touched her cheek again.

Xu Chaomu still did not react.

The room was very quiet, and no light shone. He dried his hair and simply slipped under the covers next to her.

He always said Xu Chaomu slept like a little pig.

It turned out to be true, as even when he lay beside her, she didn’t react at all.

She slept very soundly, and so his heart was at peace.

During those five years, he didn’t know how she had managed, if he could, he wanted to meet Nie Chenglang…

His warm and dry hand hooked around her small one, embracing her as he drifted off to sleep.

Due to a headache, he didn’t fall asleep for a while, just lying quietly beside her with eyes closed.

His large hand swept over her abdomen, feeling the presence of the child inside her belly.

When it finally became completely light outside, Shen Chi gradually fell asleep.

Shen Chi’s biological clock was very accurate, and he woke up a little after six.

Groggily opening his eyes, he saw Xu Chaomu still sleeping soundly.

To his surprise, when he moved slightly, Xu Chaomu opened her eyes.

“Why are you sleeping in my bed?” Xu Chaomu mumbled, her eyes barely opening, so sleepy.

“Don’t talk, go back to sleep,” Shen Chi held her tightly.

“Oh…” Xu Chaomu closed her eyes again and fell back asleep.

Shen Chi looked at her in his arms, his face full of satisfaction.

Sleeping until nine in the morning, Shen Chi got up first. After covering her with the comforter, he went to the living room to make a phone call to Xiao Mo.

“Mr. Shen.”

“Hmm,” Shen Chi responded with a deep voice, “How’s the investigation from yesterday going?”

“I checked the dashcam footage and the license plate number you provided.”

“Look again—where was Nie Chenglang after six o’clock last night, and what was he doing?”

“Okay, I’ll report back to you once I have the information.”

“Hmm.”

“Mr. Shen… Are you coming to the corporation today?” Xiao Mo inquired.

Shen Chi glanced at his watch and replied flatly, “Not today.”

“Oh, okay, don’t overwork yourself…” Xiao Mo said with implied meaning, “After all, your arm is still injured.”
