If You Could Hear My Heart
Chapter 1018 - Chapter 1018 Chapter 1018 They Havent Divorced Yet

Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018: They Haven’t Divorced Yet Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018: They Haven’t Divorced Yet She sat in the car but didn’t drive away. Instead, she waited until Shen Chi’s driver arrived. After she watched his car disappear into the distance, she finally started the engine and left.

Bai Man thought there must be some problem between Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu, and it wasn’t just about the child.

Otherwise, Xu Chaomu had been in Jin City for so long–had Shen Chi really not found her?

That was impossible.

Moreover, recently Shen Chi had indeed been frequently seen in various places with female companions. To put it nicely, they were called companions, but to speak bluntly, weren’t they just mistresses?

And the newspapers, they were saying… Xu Chaomu had an affair?

Today, Shen Chi also mentioned it, saying that Xu Chaomu had lingering ties with another man…

The other man is probably Nie Chenglang.

But Bai Man still found it hard to believe that Shen Chi truly didn’t care about what happened five years ago.

If he were really fed up with Xu Chaomu, that would be possible, but now, she was unsure whether he was truly fed up with Xu Chaomu or just throwing a tantrum.

Under the night sky, with the windows down, gusts of evening breeze blew in, lifting strands of her hair.

She glanced at the restaurant, a place she and Shen Chi had visited many times.

There were many shared memories between them here…

She looked around and smiled faintly. It was a long time before she finally drove away from there.

The next day at Shen Group.

Shen Chi, as usual, arrived early and called Xiao Mo straight to the president’s office.

“Take this proposal and make me a contract out of it,” Shen Chi said, tossing the proposal Bai Man had given him last night back to Xiao Mo.

He had drunk a bit too much last night but hadn’t reached the point of drunkenness, just that he had a bit of a headache today.

Xiao Mo picked it up and saw it was a collaboration between Shen Group and the Bai Family.

He flipped through it casually and said with confusion, “President Shen, Shen Group doesn’t lack funds. There is absolutely no need for the Bai Family to buy into the company.”

“Finish reading it before you speak to me,” Shen Chi said contemptuously.

“Huh?” Xiao Mo lowered his head again and continued to look through the document.

He didn’t find anything special–it was just a detailed proposal, no different from the ones used for ordinary business collaborations.

After browsing for a while, Xiao Mo still didn’t see anything unusual.

There was no marking or anything; it was an original draft.

“President Shen, I think there’s no need to cooperate with the Bai Family. This commercial street project is a sure win, and obviously, the Bai Family just wants a piece of the pie,” Xiao Mo said. “Moreover, the Bai Family… President Shen, do you still want to be involved with the Bai Family?”

“Xiao Mo, you’re getting dumber. Should I consider firing you?” Shen Chi said disdainfully. “Do I need you to remind me of such simple logic?!”

Shen Chi was angry. Xiao Mo was indeed getting dumber. Xu Chaomu couldn’t be found, and he couldn’t even understand such a simple proposal!

Had he gone back to square one?!

“…” Xiao Mo’s mouth twitched.

He glanced at Shen Chi and then at the proposal. Suddenly, he understood.

“President Shen, I understand now. I’ll go back and draft a cooperative contract,” Xiao Mo said. “I’ll make sure it meets your satisfaction.”

“Mm.”

“But… President Shen, about those rumors flying around in the newspapers recently, don’t you plan to deal with them?” Xiao Mo frowned.

“I let them fly. Do you have a problem with that?”

Xiao Mo quickly shook his head: “No problem.”

Who would dare to have an opinion about Shen Chi!

Was Shen Chi doing this to make Xu Chaomu anxious and prompt her to call him or come to see him? After all, the two of them were not yet divorced.

Or perhaps, was there another motive?

Xiao Mo couldn’t figure it out. Regardless, Shen Chi always acted after careful consideration; there was no need for doubt.

It was just that if one day Shen Chi were to find out the truth he had concealed on behalf of Xu Chaomu, he just hoped he wouldn’t get chopped to pieces.

It seemed that for now, Shen Chi was unaware.

“If you’ve got no objections, then go back to your own office,” Shen Chi said.

“Then, Boss Shen… I have another suggestion,” Xiao Mo said.

“Speak.”

“It would be better if you met with fewer female companions; your body can’t keep up.”

“Get out.”

“I’m seriously suggesting; don’t get the wrong idea. I’m just saying, drinking too much and staying out late isn’t good for your health… Don’t start imagining things…”

“When I tell you to get out, can’t you hear?” Shen Chi said angrily.

What did he mean his body couldn’t keep up?

Other than those paparazzi photos, had he done anything that would wear him out?!

If he had actually done something that would wear him out, would he still have the face to look for Xu Chaomu?!

“Fine, fine, fine, I’ll work on the contract,” Xiao Mo said, his face lined with frustration. Couldn’t Shen Chi speak normally?

Without a word more, it just becomes… a temper tantrum.

Xiao Mo casually shut the president’s office door and walked toward his own office.

He carefully read the proposal again. The plans, schedules, funding, and so on were all very detailed. It was clear that someone had put effort into the proposal.

However, Shen Group was wealthy and had no need for the Bai Family’s assistance.

Besides, five years ago, when Shen Chi needed help, Bai Xuan presented a series of harsh demands, and it was impossible for Shen Chi to cooperate with the Bai Family again.

Shen Chi held grudges. Five years ago, when even lending money was reluctantly handled by the Bai Family, how could Shen Chi cooperate with them now, five years later?

His intent in having the contract drafted was clear: lay a trap within it, and wait for the Bai Family and Bai Man to fall into it!

So, he had to handle this contract very carefully.

The key was not to let the Bai Family catch on.

But since Bai Man was the one who gave the contract and planned on signing directly with her, it would be much easier. After all, Bai Man knew nothing about business terms.

Tricking Bai Man with a contract trap was a matter of minutes.

He and Shen Chi, weren’t they being a bit too unscrupulous…

Thinking of this, Xiao Mo couldn’t help but laugh. Since they had already decided to be unscrupulous, might as well be more ruthless.

He had studied law at the university; setting traps like this was second nature to him.

He just hadn’t anticipated that Shen Chi had already met with Bai Man in private, nor had he expected Shen Chi’s desire for revenge to be so strong.

Once this contract was out and Bai Man signed it, it would be a massive trap, potentially costing the Bai Family their entire fortune.

If they were going to play, then play hard. At that moment, Xiao Mo couldn’t help but think of Xu Chaomu.

He wondered if Wealth had recovered yet, or if he was still hobbling along.

And then there was Bai Man, whose actions had led to Xu Chaomu’s premature labor, and the loss of their child… Thinking of these things, Xiao Mo couldn’t stay calm.

However… knowing how much Shen Chi loved holding grudges and his intense desire for revenge, if one day Shen Chi were to find out he had been hiding Xu Chaomu’s affairs in Jin City, especially after so long, would he skin him alive?

Hiss–just thinking about it sent shivers down Xiao Mo’s spine.

That man, his methods were extraordinary; there was nothing you could think of that he wouldn’t dare to do.

More than just the events from five years ago, Xiao Mo truly wondered, did he even remember clearly every time he was hit as a child?

No, that was wrong. Only Shen Chi had the role of hitting others; who would dare hit him?
