If You Could Hear My Heart
Chapter 1161 - Chapter 1161 Chapter 1161 Have a Child for Me

Chapter 1161: Chapter 1161: Have a Child for Me Chapter 1161: Chapter 1161: Have a Child for Me Shen Chi was puzzled, why would the boss call her?

Knowing Shen Chi’s confusion, the boss’s tone became more earnest, “I have a relative who just got divorced this year. He happens to be in Jin City today, would you… want to meet him?”

Shen Chi instantly understood, the boss wanted to set her up on a blind date.

She was about to decline when the boss hurriedly added, “Hear me out first. This relative is my aunt’s son. His wife cheated on him, so they divorced earlier this year and they didn’t have any children. He’s exactly thirty this year, well-established in his career, and owns a small company. His annual income is also over five million, and he’s quite good-looking.”

The boss continued, “I think you’re a great girl, and you’d definitely have things in common with him, so I thought you should meet.”

“But boss… I have a boyfriend,” Shen Chi replied casually.

She hadn’t expected the boss to care so much about her personal life, but she really wasn’t interested.

“Everyone knows you don’t have a boyfriend,” the boss laughed, “Look at you, adopting a child, it hasn’t been easy. You may think it’s nothing, but it’s different for the child. Growing up without a father’s love is not good for his development.”

“I…”

“Don’t say no just yet, go and meet him. He’s really a good catch,” the boss said, “He’ll be at Tianyi Teahouse with a rose on the table.”

Shen Chi didn’t know how to refuse her boss’s kindness. After thinking for a moment, she nodded, “Then I’ll meet him.”

“That’s the spirit, meeting him won’t do any harm, and if it doesn’t work out, you could at least make a friend. I really value you, I often tell them you’re the best designer in our company.”

“You flatter me, boss.”

“No, no, no, you really are outstanding.”

After hanging up, Shen Chi put Xiaobao to sleep.

Xiaobao’s face was clean and innocent, possessing the unique purity of a child, like pure milk.

Shen Chi smiled looking at him. Although she was reluctant to go on a blind date, she understood one thing–her child could not grow up without a father.

She herself was a living example.

The lack of a father’s love from her childhood was a lifelong regret.

“Xiaobao, what kind of uncle do you like? Would you want mom to find you a dad?”

Xiaobao had fallen asleep, unable to hear Shen Chi’s words.

Should she wait until he’s older to find him a father…

Shen Chi sighed and didn’t say anything further, she got ready and headed to Tianyi Teahouse.

The teahouse wasn’t crowded, as it was pricey and not many would afford to drink tea there.

But the environment was excellent, with flowing water visible from the entrance, along with miniature mountains, bridges, trees, and bonsai. Someone was playing the guzheng inside the teahouse, creating a very pleasant ambiance.

Shen Chi looked around and then looking up, saw a man in a white shirt on the second floor, with a rose by his side.

Shen Chi walked over and saw that his appearance was ordinary, not too old, and he seemed gentlemanly.

She went upstairs, approached him, and quietly stated her reason for being there.

The man immediately stood up and pulled out a chair for her, “Miss Xu, hello, please sit.”

“Thank you.”

Xu Chaomu sat across from him, settling her bag.

“I wasn’t sure what you liked to drink, so I ordered some Longjing tea.”

“That’s fine; I like it,” Xu Chaomu said.

“I’m glad you like it, I was worried you wouldn’t,” the man glanced at Xu Chaomu, probably thinking she was indeed pretty, and he quite liked her.

But Xu Chaomu didn’t look at him, just down at the tea on the table.

She suddenly realized, looking at any man, she just didn’t feel much.

But what was that feeling worth, after all?

She gently lifted her hand, swirling the Longjing tea in her cup.

The tea was translucent, with the green of jade, its aroma filling the air, and the steam rising. A gentle swirl produced a light ripple in the cup.

The man spoke first, “My cousin told me you studied abroad, now you’re living on your own and have adopted a child?”

“I studied abroad,” stated Xu Chaomu flatly, “and now I am living on my own.”

“How many months is the child now?”

“Over eight months.”

“What kind of person do you like?” he asked.

“Easy to talk to, good tempered, kind, someone who would be good to Xiaobao.” Xu Chaomu responded simply.

Her requirements were simple, she had always been straightforward.

In the past, some accused her attraction to Shen Chi as merely for the status of becoming a wealthy young matron and for the Shen Family’s money.

But liking someone was just that–liking them, without all those attachments.

Yet, talking about liking someone now felt rather extravagant.

“I’ll start by talking about myself,” the man began, “I’ve just divorced, but I treated my wife well. It was just that when my business faced a slight setback… she got involved with a top executive.”

He paused briefly here.

“My wife was very beautiful; that’s a fact,” the man continued, “However, what I need is a wife who takes her family responsibilities seriously.”

“I understand,” Xu Chaomu nodded.

She agreed with him; whether it’s a man or woman, they should be responsible toward their family.

“I think Miss Xu is quite pretty… may I ask why you divorced?”

“He cheated.”

“Oh, then we share a similar misfortune,” the man said, “I’m successfully self-employed now, my annual income is over five million, and it will increase in the future. You… wouldn’t mind my money, right?”

Xu Chaomu was taken aback, lifting her head, “What do you mean?”

“Oh, don’t mind me; I mean, I don’t want you to be with me because of my money. If in the future, I face failure, you shouldn’t be like my ex-wife…”

Xu Chaomu slightly curved her lips upward, remaining silent.

Who could compare with Shen Chi when it came to money?

“I’m a straightforward person, since we’re meeting for marriage, it’s better to be open about it,” the man said.

“Hmm,” Xu Chaomu responded faintly.

“As long as you don’t mind,” the man continued, “Also, I don’t have any children, I hope we can have a child out of love, two would be even better.”

“I am content with Xiaobao,” Xu Chaomu stated clearly.

“The adopted child?” the man frowned.

“Yes,” Xu Chaomu admitted openly.

The man’s expression clouded, but he managed to restrain himself, “So you don’t want to have children with me?”

“Yes.”

The man shook his head, “Miss Xu’s views are quite unusual.”

But women, they say one thing and do another.

“That’s what I think,” Xu Chaomu said.

“It’s okay.” The man suddenly smirked, lowering his voice, “In bed… maybe you will willingly have a child for me.”

“That’s vulgar,” Xu Chaomu frowned.
