Shen Di was quite calm, as if taking medicine was just an ordinary thing.
Qin Chen poured her another cup of boiled water and patiently waited for it to cool down a bit before handing it to Shen Di.
âThank you,â Shen Di said with a smile, taking the cup from his hand.
Qin Chen watched her, speaking softly, âTake it slow, donât burn yourself.â
Shen Di tossed the pills into her mouth, finishing them one by one. Qin Chenâs gaze never left Shen Di, concern flickering in his eyes.
Xu Chaomu glanced at Shen Chi, who didnât speak, so she didnât say anything either.
After Shen Di had finished her medicine, she suggested taking a walk around the Shen Familyâs home.
âAchi, when will Mom and Dad be back?â Shen Di asked as they walked.
âIn a few days, Dad isnât feeling well, so they are traveling abroad for recreation and treatment,â Shen Chi replied, his tone indifferent and cold.
âWhat about second sister and third brother?â
âTheyâve both moved out of the Shen Family home.â
âIs that so?â Shen Di didnât say much, âThe Shen Family is still the same as before.â
Shen Yanrou and Shen Shihan were two people she had never met, only seen a few times in videos and newspapers, so she didnât have much of an impression of them, let alone a good one.
Now, hearing from Shen Chi that they had all moved away, the Shen Family truly was still the one she remembered before she left.
Itâs just that her parents had divorcedâ¦
âYes, the Shen Family is still the same as before.â
At that moment, Shen Chi subconsciously tightened his hold on Xu Chaomu.
Xu Chaomu looked up at him, and Shen Chi lowered his head and looked at her affectionately.
After walking around the Shen Familyâs lawn for a while, Qin Chen softly said to Shen Di, âAdi, you canât walk for too long, go back and rest for a bit.â
âMhm, I know,â Shen Di was quite obedient to Qin Chen.
Indeed, after walking on the lawn for a while longer and looking at the scenery, Shen Di followed Qin Chen back to her room to rest.
Shen Diâs room hadnât been touched for many years, and of course, nobody dared to touch it.
The interior decorations were just as they were when she left a decade ago, except for some new clothes in the wardrobe and new decorations on the desk.
When Shen Di pushed open the door, her eyes brimmed with tears, the rims becoming moist.
So many years had passed, yet it was as if time had stood still.
âAchi, Mumu, you must be tired, too? Go back and rest,â Shen Di said.
âSister, you rest well, Iâll come get you when lunch is ready,â Xu Chaomu said.
âAlright, Mumu, donât overwork yourself, take care of your health.â
âI will,â Xu Chaomu nodded.
âQin, I want to read a book,â Shen Di said, looking up at Qin Chen.
Qin Chen smiled, âI brought all the books you hadnât finished the other day, Iâll go get them for you.â
When Qin Chen came out, Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu followed suit and left as well.
Shen Chi took Xu Chaomu back to his own room, and as soon as they entered, he closed the door.
âMr. Qin is so good to your sister,â Xu Chaomu sighed again, âGentle and considerate, meticulous and thoughtful.â
âAm I not good to you?â
âNot good enough.â
âIs it just because I didnât satisfy you last night?â Shen Chi said shamelessly.
âGet lost, Shen Chi, also, Iâm going to complain to my sister!â Xu Chaomu yelled hysterically.
In front of Shen Di just now, he had the demeanor of a modest gentleman, but the moment he was in front of her, he immediately turned into a beast.
Indeed, itâs impossible to change a manâs true nature.
âGo ahead, I wonât stop you.â
âYou!â Xu Chaomu was at a loss for words.
How could she possibly go and tell Shen Di that? Damn it, Shen Chi clearly knew she wouldnât dare.
âShen Chi, I have a question for you.â
âHmm?â
âWhy does sister need to take so much medicine?â Xu Chaomu was puzzled.
âHer heart isnât very good; she needs medication to maintain it.â
Xu Chaomu felt sad, thinking about taking so much medicine every day and having to go for regular hospital check-ups. She found it torture just getting a shot or seeing a doctor, so what about Shen Di?
Seeing Xu Chaomuâs face filled with sorrow, the air around them seemed to be laden with sadness too, Shen Chi changed the subject and pinned her against the corner wall, âChaomu, do you remember what you said this morning?â
Xu Chaomu was startled, âI said so much this morning, how can I remember everything?â
âDidnât you say you wanted to have a monkey baby with me?â Shen Chi loosened the buttons of his shirt, âHow about we start now?â
âShen Chi, do you even have a basic understanding of science?!â
She was pregnant; how could she have a monkey baby with him?!
âIt doesnât matter, I care about the process.â
As he spoke, he pinned her against the wall, tilting his head and placing a kiss on her lips.
âMmmâ¦â
Xu Chaomu struggled; she increasingly felt that this man probably couldnât last much longer, as he had kissed her many times since they woke up this morning.
It was still daytime, and he was already thinking about some shameless things.
And the process⦠Process my foot!
Shen Chiâs kisses were fervent and searing.
Xu Chaomu couldnât resist him; she bent her knee, aiming for his most vulnerable spot to kick,
But Shen Chi was one step ahead of her and pinned her downâ¦
As the kiss continued, a fire surged upwards, and he began to pull off the scarf around her neckâ¦
âYou, you shameless⦠itâs still⦠daytimeâ¦â Xu Chaomu warned him.
She couldnât hold out any longer, and all of Shen Chiâs emotions were also fully ignited.
Yet he let her go, his passion-filled eyes fixed on her, âThen shall we⦠continue tonight?â
âIâm going to stay at Weiweiâs place, you beast.â
âYou wouldnât dare,â Shen Chi said coldly, his face tensing.
âIâ¦â Xu Chaomu backed down; she didnât dare.
As long as she was in C City, he had the ability to drag her back from any corner, and if so, her end would be quite unsightly, and Weiweiâs as well.
For the time being, Shen Chi let go of her, but caught her hand.
On her hand, she was still wearing the jade bracelet Shen Di gave her, which he silently observed for a long time.
âThe necklace I gave you that year, you just tossed it away,â Shen Chi said, his tone icy.
Xu Chaomu pouted, âOut with the old, in with the new, why donât you buy me another one?â
âForget it, weâre even.â
âHuh?â
âAfter you returned to the country, I was the one who threw away that rose necklace.â
âShen Chi, you, you, you⦠Get lost!â
Xu Chaomu glared and hysterically scolded Shen Chi. She had even searched for it for a long time in the hospital, and whatâs key was that Shen Chi himself had pretended to help her look for quite a while!
As it turned out, he was the one who threw it away!
Shen Chi remained unfazed, finding a comfortable spot on the sofa to sit.
âWhatâs so special about that necklace that youâre so attached to it?â His tone was indifferent, even carrying a hint of jealousy.
âDo you even know how I got that necklace?â
Shen Chi sneered, âGiven by a boyfriend?â
Xu Chaomu had intended to say she had saved up to buy it herself, but hearing his tone, she coyly smiled, âYeah, given by a boyfriend, it had sentimental value.â
No sooner had she finished her words, Shen Chi pinned her down on the sofa, his eyes coldly fixed on her.
âSay that again!â
