If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 506: Chapter 456: The Best Age, The Best You
Xu Chaomu wondered, was Dabai finding her childish?

Or, perhaps Dabai, like its master, was asexual?

Yikes, Xu Chaomu covered her face, realizing her thoughts were running wild again. She had been corrupted by Shen Chi.

During her five years in Paris, she was so innocent, blushing and feeling embarrassed whenever she saw couples kissing on the playground.

Those five years, she had forgotten that she was a little rascal at heart.

Now, back in C City, having not spent much time with a certain big hooligan, the rascal inside her had been fully stirred up.

No, no, no, she wanted to be pure, as pure as a sheet of white paper, as flawless as white jade, like… okay, she couldn’t keep it up.

“Dabai, if you don’t like me, I’m leaving, okay? I’ll leave you alone on the street. Then, you’ll be picked up by a very vicious old man; he will hit you and not feed you,” Xu Chaomu threatened Dabai.

Clearly, Dabai was not moved by this tactic and showed no reaction.

Perhaps it was tired; Dabai slowly lay down and just stayed there motionlessly by the roadside, looking listless.

Xu Chaomu squatted next to it and stroked its head.

“Dabai, are you sick?”

Dabai squinted its eyes but still didn’t move.

“Are you hungry because you didn’t eat enough at night?”

That shouldn’t be right; in the evening when she visited the doghouse, she saw the feast the butler Ling had prepared for Dabai, and it had finished all of it.

Still no reaction from Dabai; it just lay there by the curb.

“Missing Shen Chi?” Xu Chaomu asked again.

At the sound of Shen Chi’s name, a different expression finally surfaced in Dabai’s eyes.

Xu Chaomu patted its head and sighed, “It’s been many days since he last came back; he’s forgotten us.”

Dabai’s obedience while lying on the ground was quite endearing, without creating any trouble or fuss.

Xu Chaomu always felt that Dabai’s temperament was very similar to someone’s. Sometimes it acted haughty, sometimes it was adorably arrogant, and at times it was inexplicably delighted.

Truly befitting of someone raised by that certain person.

“Come on, let’s go for a walk!”

Xu Chaomu tugged on the leash, attempting to lift Dabai off the ground.

She was supposed to take it for a walk, not out for a sleep—it was such an uncooperative dog.

Dabai struggled a bit and very reluctantly moved backward.

Every time it stepped back, Xu Chaomu pulled it forward.

Dabai’s gaze was filled with disdain, but left with no choice, it compromised and followed Xu Chaomu.

“Ah, that’s being a good dog!” Xu Chaomu was pleased.

She continued walking with Dabai along the roadside, savoring the fragrance of the flowers and the crunch of leaves beneath their feet…

The evening breeze was cool and refreshing against the skin.

The moon in the sky was beautiful, round like a mooncake.

She missed Shen Chi considerably as well; it had been many days since she last saw him. Thankfully, she hadn’t signed that divorce agreement; otherwise, now she might not even have the opportunity to stand at the Shen Family’s place.

Moreover, several days had passed, and there was no activity from Zhou Ran and Shen Cexian.

Zhou Ran hadn’t called her again, so Xu Chaomu wondered, had she won the bet?

But she wasn’t completely certain…

In the last couple of days, she also received some good news: she had passed her interview with Shen Group, which meant she would be able to start working.

What would it feel like to work with him?

She was especially eager to see how this man looked when he was in a meeting or reprimanding subordinates. He must be… cool, right?

Actually, after returning five years later, she didn’t want anything to do with him.

At first, she indeed ignored him, and there had been several times when she particularly wanted to leave the Shen Family.

But then she found that, after five years, he had changed a lot. Besides still being domineering, he was incredibly good to her.

Five years ago, he was also kind to her, but the kindness was different from now.

What was the difference? Xu Chaomu pondered for a moment…

It seemed… before, he wouldn’t kiss her, let alone hug her to sleep. Now…

Yikes, her eyes brightened; wasn’t it that before he was discretely flirtatious, but now he was openly flirtatious?

In the end, it meant that in public, he was prim and proper, but in private, he was a beast in clothing!

“Dabai, who do you like more, me or Shen Chi?” Xu Chaomu chatted while they walked.

Asking this question was like teasing a child. Hmm, when her little bun is born, she must ask, “Do you like mommy or your fourth uncle more?”

Dabai paid no mind to Xu Chaomu’s chatter and reluctantly followed behind her.

Xu Chaomu touched her forehead; well then, it seemed she was the only one running her mouth off while Dabai showed no reaction at all.

When she was in Paris, she wasn’t this talkative; sometimes she was even quite silent.

Back in C City, back at the Shen’s, she seemed to have endless chatter and endless thoughts.

Could it be that the local environment shapes its people?

It was still early, so Xu Chaomu strolled leisurely along the roadside.

She really liked the feeling of taking a walk like this; it felt as if time had slowed down a great deal…

The memory that lingered most in her mind was from five years ago, when Shen Chi took her hand, and she walked Dabai, strolling leisurely.

Nerium oleander flowers were in bloom, petals scattered all over the ground, as the evening breeze gently blew.

The best age, meeting the best of you.

Everything merged into the most beautiful picture.

As she and Dabai ambled along the roadside, cars occasionally zoomed past them.

Xu Chaomu thought she saw Mi Fei, sitting in the passenger seat, while an adult man who seemed to be her father, was in the driver’s seat.

Their car headed toward the direction of the Luxurious Heavens, probably going to Li Beiting’s house.

Xu Chaomu was somewhat anxious for Yu Weiwei; that girl didn’t seem like she’d forgotten Li Beiting completely.

That girl was stubborn, sometimes even more so than her.

But now, with Li Beiting about to marry Mi Fei, what should Yu Weiwei do?

Watch Li Beiting get married and then offer her congratulations with a smile?

With Yu Weiwei’s temperament, since she had said they were breaking up, she definitely wouldn’t take the initiative to find Li Beiting again.

What about Li Beiting then? Did he really like Weiwei or Mi Fei?

In terms of looks, Weiwei and Mi Fei were equally matched. As for personality, they were vastly different.

Weiwei was headstrong, straightforward in speech, generous and passionate—a wonderful girl.

Of course, Xu Chaomu had met Mi Fei too; Mi Fei was the exact opposite of Yu Weiwei. She was the delicate and graceful type, even speaking in a gentle and soft tone.

These two, their personalites couldn’t be any more distinct.

Who Li Beiting liked and didn’t like should have been easy to identify.

Xu Chaomu genuinely worried for Weiwei; were she and Li Beiting really going to miss their chance?

It was clear to see, the girl wasn’t over Li Beiting at all; she was just being stubborn.

“Sigh…” Xu Chaomu let out a sigh.

The car Mi Fei was in had driven off into the distance. Xu Chaomu turned her head, and indeed, it had turned into the Luxurious Heavens villa area.

Was Mi Fei going over there to discuss their wedding?

Xu Chaomu was really anxious.

But being anxious was useless; this was being anxiously ineffectual. No, this was like the saying ‘the emperor is not in a hurry, but his eunuchs are.’
