If You Could Hear My Heart
Chapter 1086 - Chapter 1086 Chapter 1086 Taking You to Find Mom

Chapter 1086: Chapter 1086: Taking You to Find Mom Chapter 1086: Chapter 1086: Taking You to Find Mom Outside the office, Lawyer Chen was still waiting. Seeing Shen Chi coming out, he approached him.

“Mr. Shen, is there anything else I can help you with?”

“No need,” Shen Chi said indifferently as he walked straight out of the law firm.

Drizzle was still falling from the sky outside; as soon as he stepped out, the fine raindrops landed on his face, soft and delicate, with an indescribable sense of finesse.

Shen Chi’s heart felt incredibly oppressed, a feeling so suffocating that he could hardly breathe.

In such weather, amidst the dense drizzle, the face of Xu Chaomu kept appearing before him, no longer lively and vibrant, only restrained.

To this day, he remembered how, upon learning that the child was gone, she hadn’t cried or made a fuss, just stayed quiet and calm.

He feared her silence the most; such a Xu Chaomu would make his heart ache hundreds, thousands of times more. He loved to see her smiling.

It was he who had wronged her…

He couldn’t even protect her child, what was there left to give her for a lifetime.

Gradually, he stood in the rain, his hands clenched tightly into fists.

The assistant from the law firm had already opened the car door for Shen Chi, saying respectfully, “Mr. Shen, please.”

Shen Chi’s gaze was level, his eyes deep and inscrutable.

He got into the car, sat in the driver’s seat, and drove to Ji Shengxuan’s club.

Annoyance was brewing inside him, a yearning to see someone he couldn’t, perpetually wrapped around his heart like iron wire, constricting him inexorably, leaving him gasping for air.

The feeling was unbearable, his chest aching.

Driving into the rain, dusk fell gradually, street lights illuminating the entire broad road.

The rain danced like petals, strand by strand on the car window, slowly blurring Shen Chi’s vision…

On the drive, he made a call to his subordinate.

“Mr. Shen.”

“Keep Bai Man under 24-hour surveillance, report every move to me.”

“Received.”

“Mhm.”

After finishing this call, he made another one to Xiao Mo, giving him some instructions.

He knew the Bai Family could absolutely come up with the two hundred million US dollars, but Bai Man wouldn’t dare tell Bai Xuan about the mess she’d caused unless it was absolutely necessary.

Using her mentality, he didn’t mind being a bit more ruthless.

Xiao Mo had already returned home. Hearing Shen Chi’s commands, he nodded, “Mr. Shen, don’t worry, I’ll handle it. Three days is enough.”

“What I want is for the entire Bai Family to be ruined and for Bai Man to be disgraced and discredited,” Shen Chi’s voice was low, hoarse, and fiercely vindictive.

“Understood,” Xiao Mo got it.

After speaking, Shen Chi hung up the phone and continued driving.

Xiao Mo put away his phone, too; how could he not understand, when his own wife had been wronged, there’s no reason not to seek revenge!

“Goo goo…” The little baby on the sofa crawled around, making sleepy noises.

He wasn’t tired at all, crawling from left to right, then from right to left, his big eyes constantly looking around, very curious.

When Xiao Mo was on the phone, the baby’s gaze fell on Xiao Mo, watching intently.

Xiao Mo turned his head; his eyes met with the adorable big eyes of the baby.

“What are you looking at? Do you think your uncle is handsome?” Xiao Mo sat down, teasing the baby by scratching his nose.

The baby pouted his lips, gave Xiao Mo a disdainful glance, didn’t engage with him, and crawled away.

“…” Xiao Mo sweated.

He played by himself, completely self-sufficient, except that Xiao Mo had bought him quite a few toys, which he hardly played with, only showing interest in fiddling with building blocks.

Xiao Mo felt that this child was fairly easy to raise.

But before long, he realized his mistake; the kid either had no temper, quietly playing by himself, or when a tantrum came, it was earth-shattering.

One evening, when the night nanny was feeding him rice porridge, she accidentally spilled a little bit on his favorite blue triangular building block, and the little guy immediately protested, his temper flaring.

He became upset, reached out, pushed the bowl of porridge away, and even threw the remaining building blocks onto the floor!

“Xiaobao, I’m sorry, it’s my fault. Here, let me clean the blocks for you.” The night nanny placed the bowl on the table and wiped his building blocks with a cloth.

The little guy still wasn’t happy. He shoved with his hand, somehow with so much strength that, while the nanny wasn’t paying attention, he pushed the bowl right off the table!

With a “clang,” the small white porcelain bowl shattered immediately, and porridge spilled everywhere.

“…” The night nanny was stunned. This little guy had quite the temper.

Hearing the commotion, Xiao Mo, who was working in the study, hurried down.

Just as he reached the stairs, he saw the unhappy little face.

He sat on the sofa with a stern look, not smiling, ignoring everyone.

“Xiaobao, don’t be sad. Here, have your blocks.” The night nanny tried to give the cleaned blocks back to the little guy.

The little one put his hands behind his back, refusing!

Xiao Mo couldn’t hold back his laughter. The kid had a temper, but his serious, angry face was really endearing.

He had just bought a milky white T-shirt for him today, and the little guy, wearing his new clothes and sitting on the sofa, was especially cute.

Xiao Mo couldn’t help but stand on the stairs and take a few more glances, not going down.

The night nanny was at a loss; the little one wasn’t crying or making a fuss, just sulking. Sheesh, she had never seen a child who could get so cranky.

“Xiaobao, you can’t skip your meal tonight. I’ll go and get you some more porridge. Will you eat nicely, okay?” the night nanny coaxed.

“…” The little guy didn’t respond, just angry.

The nanny stood up and cleaned the floor. After cleaning, she went to get another bowl of porridge.

When she returned to the sofa, Xiao Mo had already come down; they met, and the nanny softly called out, “Sir.”

“Mm.”

“I’ll go feed him again.”

Saying that, the night nanny walked toward the little one.

The little guy sat in a corner of the sofa, sulking alone, his little mouth pouting ever so high.

He had thrown his favorite block aside, refusing to touch it.

Xiao Mo watched him with arms folded, such a temper, really reminiscent of a certain person. He wondered if that person had been the same as a child.

“Xiaobao, come on, let’s eat.” The night nanny soothed. “Eat up, then we can wash up and go to bed.”

She scooped a small spoonful of the mushy millet porridge and brought the spoon to his face.

The little one didn’t even lift his head, he wouldn’t even look at it, no response.

Xiao Mo laughed even harder. He went over, bent down, and pinched his cheek.

“Sir, he just won’t eat,” the night nanny was at her wits’ end.

“Why so angry?” Xiao Mo asked him, “Will you eat? If you don’t, starting tomorrow you’ll go hungry for three meals.”

The little guy pouted, not making a sound.

“If you don’t eat, I won’t take you to see your mother,” Xiao Mo threatened again.

It was unclear whether children are naturally sensitive to the word “mother,” but the little guy’s mouth moved, and he began to mumble unclearly, “Moomoo…”

Xiao Mo wanted to laugh but kept a straight face: “Not ‘moomoo,’ it’s ‘mother’! If you don’t eat, I won’t take you to see your mother.”
