Chapter 660: Climbing into a Man's Bed at Such a Young Age

Someone sent her roses?

Xu Chaomu hurriedly put down her bag and picked up the bouquet of roses.

“Xiaoxu, your husband is really considerate, still sending you flowers,” a colleague commented.

Xu Chaomu knew it was impossible; Shen Chi would never send her flowers. Besides, they had an agreement that within the Shen Group, their relationship would not be made public.

Sure enough, as she carefully handled the roses, she found a card nestled among the petals.

The card only had a few words: “Waiting for you at eight tomorrow night.”

Holding the card with trepidation, Xu Chaomu was even more convinced that these were not roses sent by Shen Chi.

A colleague with sharp eyes saw the words on the card, full of envy: “Xiaoxu, you already have a child, and your husband is still so romantic!”

Another person chimed in: “Indeed, it’s really enviable, Xiaoxu. You keep saying your husband is no good, but I think he’s quite the romantic, even sending you roses.”

“Those roses must have cost a pretty penny, right?”

“Definitely, the color of those roses is great; each one looks lush and vibrant.”

The group started chatting, each one adding their remarks, while Xu Chaomu felt her heart flip-flop with anxiety.

Who sent her the roses?

What does “tomorrow night at eight” mean?

Her colleagues’ voices buzzed in her ears, one after another, but she couldn’t hear a word as she kept thinking about who would send her roses…

Shen Chi, impossible; Nie Chenglang, impossible; Lou Yanli, also impossible…

She went through all the men she could think of, none seemed possible.

Of course, it wasn’t out of the question for them to play a prank on her on a whim.

“Xiaoxu, why aren’t you happy? You should be joyful to receive roses,” asked a colleague.

Xu Chaomu snapped back to reality and offered a faint smile: “Yeah, I’m happy. It’s just that I feel he’s spending too much money.”

“How is that wasting money? It’s your husband’s gesture of affection, and that’s precious. You should cherish it.”

Xu Chaomu nodded and said no more.

Seeing that Xu Chaomu did not seem very cheerful, everyone dispersed to their own desks to work.

Nevertheless, there was still whispering going on.

“I somehow feel that those roses don’t seem like the ones Xu Chaomu’s husband would send,” said a colleague in a low voice.

“I also think they don’t look like it. Her husband doesn’t have much money; how could he afford to buy her such nice roses?”

“You see the card, it doesn’t have her husband’s name. Of course, I’m just guessing, but could it be someone who’s pursuing her…”

“Ah, even a pregnant woman is being pursued, what about us spinsters?”

“Cut it out, are you as pretty as she is?”

The group behind her discussed animatedly, and some of their words reached her now and then.

She paid them no mind, tossing the roses into a drawer under her desk and carelessly throwing the card into a wastebin.

All morning, although her mind was in turmoil, she tried to stay calm and worked diligently.

In a little while, she would hand the design drafts over to her supervisor; this time, Shen Chi should be pleased.

But as she immersed herself in work, the incident with the roses somehow reached Shen Chi’s ears.

Around eleven o’clock, Shen Chi called her.

“Xu Chaomu, come to my office!”

Xu Chaomu was startled. Before she could say a few words, he had hung up the phone!

His voice was cold, dissatisfied, haughty, and carried a strong note of interrogation.

A tightening sensation gripped Xu Chaomu’s chest. She left her work behind and took the elevator to the president’s office.

The door to the president’s office was open. She walked in, finding Shen Chi there alone.

Shen Chi’s face was full of anger. Standing in front of his desk with his hands in his pockets, the fury on his face intensified when Xu Chaomu entered.

“Close the door!” Shen Chi commanded coldly, his eyebrows furrowed tightly.

“Oh.” Xu Chaomu closed the door, feeling a bit scared.

Her heart raced with palpitations, thumping erratically. She didn’t dare to move forward…

But Shen Chi took steps towards her, cornering her against the wall.

“Feeling proud of yourself, huh? Got some roses sent to you?” He cut straight to the point, failing to suppress his emotional turmoil.

He could remain composed in the face of anything else, but when it came to anything regarding Xu Chaomu, he just couldn’t!

“Are you spying on me?”

“What do you mean spying? The whole Shen Group is mine, Shen Chi’s. What do you call spying?!”

Shen Chi was indeed furious. His cold gaze bore into Xu Chaomu, not allowing her the slightest chance to evade.

Daring to send roses openly within his corporation?

“You’re spying on me. So many employees munch on snacks during work, but I’ve never seen you care!”

“Don’t fucking change the subject. Tell me, who sent the roses?”

“I don’t know,” replied Xu Chaomu coldly.

She truly didn’t know, and Shen Chi’s attitude greatly displeased her. She was here to work for Shen’s, not to be under his surveillance!

He didn’t bother about so many others, yet he spied on her.

“Don’t know, or are you keeping ambiguous relationships with too many men to have a guess?”

Shen Chi looked down at her as piercingly as a leopard. Had he underestimated this young woman?

Xu Chaomu said nothing further, as she truly was clueless!

“Hard to tell, Xu Chaomu, you really are in demand, one man after another coming after you. Even when pregnant, you attract suitors; I can’t see what charm you possess to that extent.”

“Perhaps someone sent those roses by mistake,” Xu Chaomu glanced at him.

She was a bit frightened by this version of Shen Chi, knowing that once he became unreasonable, he was capable of anything.

“Sent by mistake? Can someone really make such a mistake? Xu Chaomu, do you think I’m easy to fool?”

“I honestly don’t know, don’t push me.”

“Tell me, just how many men are you maintaining an ambiguous relationship with?”

Shen Chi’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at her furiously.

Xu Chaomu’s hands trembled slightly with fear: “I haven’t…”

“Xu Chaomu, I really underestimated you. Having dated Lou Yanli, slept with Nie Chenglang, and shared a bed with me, Shen Chi, you’re really something. In front of me, you always act all innocent and pure, but behind the scenes, you’re flirting with several men. No wonder, even at a young age, you knew to crawl into men’s beds.”

His harsh words left Xu Chaomu trembling with rage.

Her eyes red with anger, she lifted her hand, ready to slap his face!

But as soon as she raised her hand, Shen Chi grabbed it firmly!

“What, am I wrong?” Shen Chi said angrily, clutching her wrist.

Xu Chaomu struggled to pull her hand away, but she couldn’t.

Fury consumed her, and through gritted teeth, she looked at Shen Chi with resentment.

“Shen Chi, yes, I am seducing several men, acting innocent in front of you. Since you know, why don’t you divorce me? If you dislike me so much, look down on me, then go find a woman you do like!”
