If You Could Hear My Heart
Chapter 1045 - Chapter 1045 Chapter 1045 Shes All He Thinks About

Chapter 1045: Chapter 1045: She’s All He Thinks About Chapter 1045: Chapter 1045: She’s All He Thinks About “Be serious, we haven’t even left the hotel!” Shen Chi said sternly.

“…” Xiao Mo’s mouth twitched, and he fell silent.

The elevator slowly descended, and Shen Chi spoke indifferently, “Has the actress’s payment been delivered?”

“It has, that’s a must.”

“She is not allowed to leave the house within a month.”

“I know, I’ll be watching over her personally,” said Xiao Mo.

“It’s not yet time to close the net; the contract still needs to be stamped,” Shen Chi continued, “During this time, be careful. Any lie, no matter how big, can be covered up, but remember, the most important part of covering up a lie is the details.”

“Understood.”

“Once I leave the hotel, Bai Man will definitely have someone tailing me; let them keep performing.”

“I’ve already made a call and given the instructions, this will be seamless.”

“If that’s the case, then I can rest assured.”

The two men walked out of the hotel together; Xiao Mo personally drove.

Xiao Mo’s heart was still somewhat uneasy. Xu Chaomu was now in Jin City, and if Bai Man bothered to inquire a little, she would surely find out that Xu Chaomu was not in C City, which would draw Bai Man’s attention.

He had to handle this detail well before Bai Man thought of it.

After sending Shen Chi to Waterside Pavilion, he immediately called someone in Jin City, instructing them to send Xu Chaomu to the airport overnight for a project in A City.

Before this, he had diverted Bai Man’s spies in Jin City.

He did everything without a trace.

Shen Chi didn’t feel anything; he was used to playing these games, though this was the first time he was playing one with a woman.

Women, if not clever, once they become clever, they turn extremely sensitive.

To deal with a woman, he had to invest more energy and time; he would not take it lightly.

As soon as he arrived at Waterside Pavilion, Shen Chi changed out of his clothes and took another bath.

He thoroughly washed himself, although it was just a slight touch from Bai Man, he felt a strong disgust.

Especially the scent of her perfume, he felt it lingering on his skin.

So, he simply threw away all the clothes he had worn that evening.

Standing on the balcony, Shen Chi lit a cigarette.

Under the shallow moonlight on the balcony, his sharply defined face was gradually enveloped and obscured by the smoke.

The night was deep, and dressed in his grey pajamas, he stood on the balcony with a long shadow cast by the light. His solitary form projected onto the ground appeared somewhat cold and lonely.

At times like this, what he thought about the most was still her.

Would she understand that yearning was an endless frost and snow?

However, in recent days, he had temporarily relaxed his search for Xu Chaomu, partly because he feared Bai Man might notice something, and partly because he wanted to deal with her matters first before finding her.

If he brought Xu Chaomu back now, it would undoubtedly displease both sides.

He had gone over these matters many times in his mind, and he had a very clear idea of what he wanted.

Around three or four in the morning, Bai Man sent him a text message: Is everything taken care of? I miss you so much, I can’t sleep.

Shen Chi chuckled coldly, retracting his gaze from the distance, set his phone to silent, and tossed it beside the bed.

All through the night, he ignored Bai Man.

It was Bai Man, who sent one message after another and made one call after another to Shen Chi.

When Shen Chi woke up in the morning, his phone was bombarded by Bai Man.

He frowned in disgust but still returned a call to her.

“Manman, I’m sorry, things got a bit complicated, and I was so tired when I got back that I just lay down on the bed and fell asleep. I really am sorry, and I apologize to you.”

Shen Chi’s voice sounded very weary, and his apology was very sincere.

Bai Man had wanted to say something else, but now, she couldn’t utter a single word, only comforting, “You should get some sleep, don’t go to the corporation now, I’ll come to see you after you’ve rested.”

“I’m fine, I’m still okay.”

Bai Man tentatively asked, “Is it that woman causing you too much trouble? What did she do last night? Did you settle it?”

“There’s nothing I, Shen Chi, can’t handle.”

“How much did you pay her as a breakup fee?” Bai Man asked curiously.

“One hundred thousand, not a penny more.”

“Wow, that’s quite a lot for her, she’s not worth that much. Did the media make a fuss?”

“She wouldn’t dare!”

Bai Man laughed, “I also thought she wouldn’t dare, but it’s a pity that the perfect moment yesterday was ruined by her…”

“Did you wait for me all night? I’m really sorry; I didn’t expect her to be so difficult to deal with, she left several scratch marks on my arm,” Shen Chi said with disgust.

“Ah? Is it serious? Do you want me to come and see you?”

“No need, you rest up too, actually, I’m quite exhausted. It’s nothing, I can handle it.”

“Mm-hm, you get some rest, I won’t bother you,” Bai Man said, “So… where is that woman now?”

“She’s been kicked out of C City.”

“Good, good, I guess she has no face to pester you anymore. Go to sleep, I won’t disturb you.”

“You too, get some rest. You drank quite a bit of alcohol last night.”

“I’m fine.”

“Then I’ll hang up first,” Shen Chi said.

“Mm,” Bai Man nodded.

Shen Chi hung up the call and carelessly threw his phone aside.

He had only slept in the early morning the night before, and he was very tired. To say he wasn’t sleepy would be a lie; he was exhausted.

At this moment, he especially wanted to hold a certain girl, to listen to her endless chatter, even though it might be noisy, he was willing to listen.

He closed his eyes and lay on the bed, with her filling his mind.

Thinking of her, the corners of his lips curled into a bitter arc.

Because his heart was so tired, he lay on the bed and fell asleep again not long after.

The sun was just right at this time, its glorious rays shining on the window, refracting colors. The summer air carried the scent of grass and trees, and everywhere you looked, it was a riot of blooming flowers and lush trees.

But for Xiao Mo, he had been worried about this matter ever since he returned from the hotel.

After he made a call to Jin City, he began to deal with the situation in C City.

The intelligence network Bai Man had set up around her was naturally not as extensive as Xiao Mo’s. If any of Bai Man’s people stirred, Xiao Mo could find out immediately.

He hadn’t slept all night, always listening to the phone and remaining highly vigilant.

Luckily, there hadn’t been much activity on Bai Man’s part; she had started to place her trust in Shen Chi.

Xiao Mo also knew that Bai Man was a very cautious person. For her to relax her guard like this indicated that Shen Chi’s acting was indeed not bad.

Especially how Shen Chi handled the rescue today, even he was startled by the bluff, let alone Bai Man, an outsider who was unaware.

That acting was so convincing, okay?

He almost believed that Xu Chaomu was a woman who was ungrateful, shameless and greedy for money.

He could be certain that Bai Man had started to trust Shen Chi.
