Chapter 1144 - Chapter 1144 Chapter 1144 Finding a Dad for Xiaobao

Chapter 1144: Chapter 1144: Finding a Dad for Xiaobao Chapter 1144: Chapter 1144: Finding a Dad for Xiaobao When she looked down, she saw Xiaobao smiling at her.

That smile was so clean and pure, completely unlike Xiaobao from the night before.

Seeing him smile, she smiled too. Chaomu grasped his little hand, kissed it, and checked his forehead, which was no longer hot.

“Baby, you scared Mommy to death. Do you know how worried Mommy was last night?” Chaomu hugged him tightly.

Only when Xiaobao smiled did she feel at ease.

Xiaobao was also happy, his little hands grabbing Chaomu’s hair, laughing non-stop with “giggles.”

“Miss Xu, you’re awake. Let me take the baby’s temperature,” a nurse came over.

“Okay, okay.”

The nurse placed a thermometer under Xiaobao’s arm while Chaomu held him, kissing him now and then.

She was truly overjoyed at this moment; Xiaobao was alright, thank goodness.

“Miss, where is your family? You looked so exhausted last night. It’s not easy taking care of a child alone. Especially at night, when you came in holding the baby by yourself, it really tugged at my heartstrings,” the nurse said.

“They’re not at home,” Chaomu replied quietly, without elaborating.

“Oh, you can give your husband a call; it really might be a bit tough to take care of the child all by yourself.”

“He’s on a business trip and can’t come back right away,” Chaomu replied calmly.

Did she really need to find a father for Xiaobao?

She felt resistant in her heart, but… Even though the love she gave Xiaobao wouldn’t be any less, how could his life be complete without a father’s love?

Just like her own childhood, when she watched other children play with their fathers, she longed for a father of her own, but sadly, she didn’t have one.

Now, would she allow Xiaobao to follow in her footsteps?

She couldn’t be so selfish…

With those thoughts, she lowered her head.

There was no shortage of people who wanted to introduce her to potential partners, but she had always been refusing.

Now, should she start reconsidering this matter…

At that moment, she remembered the words of a man from last night, “Chaomu, let me pursue you.”

But he wasn’t suitable, not from any aspect, and she couldn’t possibly return to the Shen Family.

“Mwah, mwah…” Xiaobao, noticing Chaomu wasn’t paying attention to him, mumbled.

Chaomu snapped back to reality, looked at him, and smiled, saying, “Mwah mwah.”

Saying this, she kissed him on the face.

Every time she kissed him, he would laugh, so very happy.

After a while, the nurse took out the thermometer, looked at it, and said, “All is well, his temperature is normal. The weather has been changing a lot lately, Miss Xu, you should pay more attention to the temperature changes.”

“Okay, I will,” Chaomu nodded. “Thank you for everything. I’ll take Xiaobao home now.”

“Sure, be careful on the road. Even though it’s not raining anymore, the sky is still overcast.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

The nurse packed up her things, and Chaomu also wrapped Xiaobao’s clothes snugly.

Just as they were preparing to leave together, a hurried figure flashed at the door.

“Chaomu!” The voice was deep and cold, like the resonant sound of a cello, suddenly echoing at the door.

Chaomu, holding Xiaobao, looked up. It was… Shen Chi.

She hadn’t expected him to come; he looked travel-worn as if he had just rushed over from C City.

The nurse glanced at Shen Chi, then back at Chaomu, and said with a smile, “Miss Xu, is this your husband?”

“Yes,” Shen Chi answered first.

Xu Chaomu moved her lips but hadn’t yet said a word.

Xiaobao recognized Shen Chi. As soon as he heard Shen Chi’s voice, he poked his head out from Xu Chaomu’s embrace, struggling because Xu Chaomu was wrapped around him and wouldn’t let him look.

“Whimper… whimper…” Xiaobao struggled and struggled.

He wanted to see the handsome uncle, the handsome uncle…

Who would buy him Dabai Rabbit sweets and beautiful clothes, that handsome uncle…

Xiaobao’s little hand scratched at Xu Chaomu’s chest through her clothes, and Xu Chaomu was exasperated, damn it, who did this kid learn this from.

“Sir, you finally made it back. Miss Xu braved the heavy rain last night to bring the child to the hospital; it really wasn’t easy. The rain was pouring down last night; Miss Xu was drenched when she arrived at the hospital,” the nurse said.

Shen Chi didn’t say anything, but his eyes were filled with guilt.

His gaze was fixed straight on Xu Chaomu’s face, where he saw her haggard complexion and swollen eyelids.

Last night, the rain in C City was also very heavy. He didn’t know Xiaobao would get a fever.

“Then you two chat; I’ll be busy,” the nurse nodded to Xu Chaomu and left.

Xiaobao was still scratching at Xu Chaomu’s chest, and in annoyance, she grabbed his hand and snorted coldly, “Xiaobao, what are you doing? Mommy is taking you home.”

Having said that, she walked past Shen Chi as if she hadn’t seen him.

But, now that Shen Chi had arrived, how could he let her leave so easily?

He pursed his lips, put forth some strength, and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her into his embrace!

“Why didn’t you call me?” he asked her, almost word for word, looking at her closely.

The two were very close, and his domineering and compelling breath overwhelmed her; Xu Chaomu clenched her teeth.

“First, Xiaobao has nothing to do with you; second, you’re in C City; third, I don’t like bothering strangers,” Xu Chaomu finished in one breath.

“Talking back now?” Shen Chi gritted his teeth, “What does it take to be familiar? We’ve hugged, kissed, embraced, slept together; is that still not familiar?”

“Be mindful of the place, this is a hospital.”

“Fine, then let’s go home and become more familiar.”

After speaking, Shen Chi carried her and took Xiaobao from her arms, striding out of the hospital.

“Hey, give Xiaobao back to me!” Xu Chaomu caught up, “Xiaobao doesn’t like you; don’t carry him.”

Shen Chi walked over to the car and opened the passenger door.

Just then, Xiaobao poked his head out.

Shen Chi bent down and touched Xiaobao’s cheek with his index finger, coaxing him, “Xiaobao, don’t you like daddy?”

Xiaobao reached out, making as if to hug Shen Chi, and gazed intently at him.

He really liked Shen Chi; this uncle was so rich, and he would buy him things; whatever he wanted, he would get…

This uncle was also good-looking…

This uncle’s voice was also pleasant to listen to…

This uncle… hmm, everything about him was good.

“… ” Xu Chaomu’s face was covered in displeasure. Couldn’t her Xiaobao be a bit more spirited? “Xiaobao, are you throwing mom under the bus? Don’t you remember last night when you had a fever and mom took you to the hospital in the rain?”

She was heartbroken. Shen Chi had no idea what kind of spell he had cast over Xiaobao to make the child so infatuated.

Xiaobao clutched Shen Chi’s hand, he liked it so much…

“Yeah, Xiaobao is a good boy; get in the car with daddy.”

Saying this, he placed Xiaobao in the passenger seat.

He glanced at Xu Chaomu and said in a deep voice, “Aren’t you getting in the car?!”

“Give Xiaobao back to me.”

“If you’re not coming, forget it!” Having said that, Shen Chi pretended to close the car door and drive away.

“Don’t go!” Xu Chaomu ran up in a few steps.
