Chapter 591: Actually, He is Your Child

Hearing his words, her face immediately turned crimson.

But she was in such a good mood now that she didn’t mind Shen Chi’s nonsense at all.

Just then, the baby in her belly kicked her again, and Xu Chaomu rubbed her stomach, feeling even happier.

She looked up at Shen Chi and said, “My baby is protesting against you. If you keep bullying me, be careful, he might beat you up after he’s born.”

“If he dares, watch me not wait until he’s born and bully both of you together,” Shen Chi retorted.

Xu Chaomu’s face turned even redder. Shen Chi, usually so proper, turned into a beast at times like these.

“I’m going to sleep, not talking to you anymore,” Xu Chaomu declared.

“You won’t let me touch?” Shen Chi looked aggrieved.

“Let you touch when he gets a bit bigger, but you can’t annoy me anymore.”

“Get a bit bigger? Which part are you talking about?” Shen Chi feigned ignorance.

Xu Chaomu’s face blushed even more, and she picked up a pillow to smash it at him!

“Shen Chi, you’re sleeping on the floor today! Go sleep on the floor!”

Shen Chi caught the pillow she threw at him, his face full of resignation: “Don’t you feel safer with me by your side?”

“You sleeping next to me would make me scared out of my wits! Shen Chi, let’s sleep in separate beds until my baby is born.”

Maybe someone would get frisky at night and touch her all over. Then upon waking up, continue to touch her all over…

“I utterly disagree,” Shen Chi said earnestly, with a resolute attitude.

“It’s for your own good. I’m afraid your body can’t take it,” Xu Chaomu posited, pretending to consider his well-being.

For any normal mature man, sleeping beside a woman every night, it would be hard to have no reaction, right?

And if he did react and couldn’t do anything about it, wouldn’t that be uncomfortable?

Of course, that was what she had read in the “Male Health Manual” Yu Weiwei gave her. As for whether practice matched theory, she had no way of knowing.

However, judging from Shen Chi’s reactions during this period, they seemed to match.

She remembered that someone was enduring quite a hardship.

“For my good? Why don’t you help me out then…” Shen Chi’s tone carried a hint of mischief.

Seeing that Xu Chaomu was in a particularly good mood, he couldn’t resist teasing her again.

“Playing the hooligan in front of my baby…” Xu Chaomu covered her face.

Shen Chi pried her hands away and chuckled in a deep voice, “With both of us here, do you think our baby will be innocent in the future?”

Shen Chi looked worried, but…it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Hearing him say “our baby,” Xu Chaomu felt a tug at her heartstrings and giggled foolishly.

Yes, this was her and his baby. If only Shen Chi had nothing to do with Zhou Ran, how wonderful that would be…

“What are you giggling at?” Shen Chi caressed her face.

“Nothing, let’s sleep.” Xu Chaomu lay down, pulled up the blanket, and covered her face with it.

She clutched the corner of the blanket tightly, refusing to look at Shen Chi.

The surprise her baby brought her today was enough to keep her happy for a very long time…

Shen Chi also let out a dry laugh and reached out to turn off the light.

Ever since being with Xu Chaomu, he had stopped having much of a nightlife. He had declined many entertainments and gatherings.

Even though he was with her every day, he never felt tired of her.

There was only one blanket on the bed. After Xu Chaomu covered herself, Shen Chi had none to cover with, so he tugged at it forcefully.

In the darkness, Xu Chaomu deliberately held on, still enveloped in the blanket.

But her strength was no match for Shen Chi. With a strong pull, he got hold of the blanket and slipped into it.

The moment he got under the blanket, he wrapped his arms around Xu Chaomu, gently punishing her with a kiss on her earlobe, “Mumu, you’re being naughty again. If I catch a cold, would you bear it?”

With his kiss on her earlobe, her whole body trembled, as if electricity flowed through her.

In the darkness, the breathing grew heavier, Xu Chaomu’s face already fiery red.

She tried to shake off his wandering hand, but the more she wanted to escape, the less she managed to.

As their arms intertwined, suddenly, his hand clasped her small hand.

Fingers entwined, he kissed her forehead, cheek, neck…

“Shen Chi… uh… if you, if you keep provoking… you’ll end up with kidney deficiency…” Xu Chaomu warned him.

“Your husband is in very good health,” the shameless man declared.

Just as Xu Chaomu resisted him strongly, he sealed her lips with a kiss, and then ceased all actions.

“Good girl, go to sleep,” Shen Chi soothed her.

Xu Chaomu’s face was burning, her body slick with sweat. At this moment, their fingers were tightly interlocked, and he refused to let them go.

Roused by his tease, her body was tingling all over, and her heart was racing non-stop.

But the instigator had now settled down to sleep, with even breathing and a steady heartbeat.

Xu Chaomu snuggled up to him, finding it even harder to fall asleep.

She stared at the ceiling, but in the pitch darkness of the room, she could see nothing.

So the night went on, Shen Chi had long fallen into a deep sleep, while her heart continued to pound.

Her hand touched his face, feeling the sharp contours in the dark. The closer she got to him, the more she could smell the light fragrance of grass and wood on him. She slowly closed her eyes, quietly savoring his steady breath.

At this moment, she wasn’t thinking about anything, he was just Shen Chi, and she was just Xu Chaomu.

“Shen Chi…” she softly called him.

She knew he was asleep, and thus her face lacked much shyness.

At this moment, only inches apart from him, as she touched him, her heart pounded even more fiercely.

Her other hand was on her stomach, and suddenly, she had a great sense of fulfillment.

Her husband was the man she loved most in her life, and she married him. What could be luckier than that…

If only… there weren’t so many barriers and gaps between them.

As she touched her belly, she moved closer to him, rubbing her belly against him.

“Shen Chi… actually, this child is yours…” she whispered softly, “I’m letting him get close to you.”

It was now the middle of the night, silent all around. Even though the room was quiet, Xu Chaomu’s voice was very low; she knew Shen Chi was asleep and wouldn’t hear her.

Rubbing against him, she felt an extreme satisfaction…

They had their own cozy home with him, her, and a little baby…

After embracing him for a long time, her eyelids began to clash. Before long, she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

However, Zhou Ran, having left Waterside Pavilion, felt uneasy in her heart. She drove along the road.

The night was enchanting, with a crescent moon hanging heavily in the sky.

Just as she left Waterside Pavilion not too far behind, she suddenly heard screams and wails.

Zhou Ran, usually indifferent to everything, remembered this sound; she had heard it when she arrived at Waterside Pavilion.
