If You Could Hear My Heart -
Chapter 1031 - Chapter 1031 Chapter 1031 I Will Miss You
Chapter 1031: Chapter 1031: I Will Miss You Chapter 1031: Chapter 1031: I Will Miss You Bai Man’s voice messages were full of pleading. She was currently lying on her own little bed, longing to see Shen Chi.
However, Bai Xuan did not allow her to go out.
Shen Chi replied, “I’m working.”
“Is anyone with you? If not, can you turn on the video? I love watching you while you work,” Bai Man persisted.
Shen Chi answered, “There’s one condition, once the video is on, don’t disturb my work.”
“Okay, don’t worry!” Bai Man agreed excitedly.
It had been several days since she last saw Shen Chi, and she really missed him.
The Shen Chi of now appealed even more to her. He exuded the charm of a mature man, grown more gentle than he was five years ago.
Such a Shen Chi was hard not to be moved by.
However, there were too many women circling him. If she wanted to get back by his side, she would have to be a bit crafty.
From what she could see now, he didn’t reject her, and it seemed like he was gradually accepting her. This was a good sign.
Back in Washington, when she saw him, he was indifferent to her, which had hurt her.
Later, at the trade fair, when he made that heartfelt confession to Xu Chaomu, she almost thought there was no chance for her.
But now that she thought about it, what kind of heartfelt confession was that? It must have been just for show. Shen Group needed such positive publicity, and Shen Chi needed to shape a positive image, and the trade fair was just the opportunity.
With that thought, Bai Man felt reassured.
She turned on the video, and Shen Chi also started his video.
Once the video was on, she laid on her bed and could see Shen Chi’s face, his handsome profile, firm lines, and deep eyes.
From the video, she could precisely see his side profile; she watched and smiled, unable to tear her eyes away.
“What are you smiling at?” Shen Chi curled his lips.
“I don’t know what’s funny, just think that you’re very nice to look at, very nice. The more I look, the more I feel like smiling foolishly,” Bai Man said.
“Then watch, I need to work.”
“Okay.” Bai Man smiled.
She lay on the bed, holding her phone, her eyes unblinking, constantly staring at the screen.
He looked so handsome while working seriously that no matter how much she watched, it was never enough. Especially when he looked down, his long eyelashes fluttered lightly, casting a small, shallow shadow on his eyelids.
Shen Chi didn’t look at the video; he continued to bury himself in work, reviewing several project cooperation documents.
Through the screen, he seemed to feel her intense gaze.
Who knows how long she watched, but Bai Man’s gaze slowly moved from Shen Chi’s face to his body, then gradually to his desk.
Since they had agreed she wouldn’t disturb his work, she just watched quietly.
After a while, she suddenly noticed a document on his large desk… it looked special.
She looked more carefully, but because of the video, she couldn’t see it clearly. It seemed to be… divorce papers?
She felt a stir in her heart, divorce papers? Really?
Bai Man kept her composure, continuing to watch the video, and casually said, “Shen Chi, can you change the phone’s position a bit? Let me see your front, is that okay?”
“There’s nothing much to see,” Shen Chi rejected again.
“Come on, just let me have a look; looking won’t cause any loss.”
“How can there be no loss? If I face the video towards me, every time I look up, I’ll see you. You’re so beautiful, it will affect my work. You should know, if you distract me for even a minute, you can calculate the loss yourself.”
His words made Bai Man bloom with joy.
She teased, “Just one glance, is one glance okay? If you don’t let me look, I probably won’t be able to eat dinner tonight; I’ll be missing you.”
“Really can’t deal with you,” Shen Chi smirked.
After speaking, he moved the phone slightly to the side.
Although he continued working throughout, someone as astute as him would not fail to notice anything odd!
He had already noticed that Bai Man sometimes glanced at the large stack of documents by his hand.
The documents were cleverly placed, seemingly deliberate, but within the delusion of being deliberate, he had also created an illusion of casualness. Especially that divorce agreement, mingled in the middle, was like viewing mountains through the mist–unclear, yet particularly alluring.
He also pretended to be unaware, very casual.
Indeed, Bai Man was shrewd and had spotted something different about the divorce papers.
“Alright, I’ve seen you now; you keep working, and I’ll just watch quietly. Don’t look at me,” Bai Man said with a smile.
“I won’t look at you; I still have to work to earn money,” Shen Chi said indifferently.
For a moment, neither spoke again. Bai Man watched Shen Chi intently, and Shen Chi continued to work.
During this period, no one else entered Shen Chi’s office. It was their own private time.
Shen Chi, who was used to dealing with all sorts of people, could not let any small action escape his eyes, and this time, Bai Man was no exception.
He secretly realized that at first, Bai Man was seriously watching him, her eyes full of attachment and obsession.
But after a while, Bai Man’s eyes would occasionally rest on that stack of documents.
Shen Chi had been very clever when he set up the phone’s angle. Although the full appearance of the divorce agreement was not visible, it was clear enough to be identified as divorce papers!
If placed too deliberately, it would easily arouse the woman’s suspicion!
This woman, even more so than five years ago, was prone to suspicion.
Since he had already started playing this game with her, he might as well play it seriously.
All he needed was a bit of patience and composure to subdue her.
As expected, while he was commenting on a document, Bai Man saw the cover of the divorce agreement. Her gaze did not linger too long before moving away.
Shen Chi kept count, said nothing, and just worked.
In Bai Man’s view, Shen Chi was always working, and it was she who had suggested the video call.
It seemed that the divorce papers were real.
The marriage between Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu had been silent, so a silent divorce was quite typical.
On the other side, Bai Man deliberately took a photo of the video to later enlarge and study it closely, to determine the truth.
Moreover, she had taken several photos of Shen Chi.
She, Bai Man, was a woman who remembered every grievance and sought revenge. She hadn’t yet settled the score with Xu Chaomu from last time! This opportunity was just right!
After taking the photos, a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of Bai Man’s lips.
It seemed that as long as she could verify the divorce papers were real, she could confront Gu Xiuting.
Once she did, Shen Chi would surely be hers.
And that commercial street project that couldn’t possibly lose money, she was determined to get her hands on it.
But everything needed patience; she was in no rush. She needed to probe Shen Chi’s sincerity further.
Especially about that project, as long as he agreed to let her invest, it would be equivalent to providing a full guarantee for her future life. That would be the biggest proof of sincerity.
After all, she would be in C City for a while; there was no need to rush this moment.
