Chapter 428: Chapter 428: Going for an Abortion

This sudden scare indeed silenced the person inside.

Xu Chaomu’s hands moved involuntarily to her belly, but after calming down, she still said indifferently, “It’s okay to skip a meal.”

The butler held his forehead, “Chaomu, it’s not okay, not even for one meal. Pregnant women should eat more, not less. Otherwise, if the child’s development is delayed and their intelligence does not keep up, and moreover, the first three months are the most crucial time, you need to boost your nutrition.”

“Butler, stop talking, I won’t eat. I’m going to sleep, good night.” Having said that, Xu Chaomu actually turned off the light in the bedroom.

The light was off, but how could she possibly sleep at this point?

She just quietly listened to the sound of the air conditioning, the chirping of birds and insects outside the window, and the rustling noise of the summer breeze blowing through the leaves.

Grasping the air conditioning blanket, she lay on the bed with her eyes closed, feeling very upset inside.

Shen Chi, you bastard of an uncle!

Outside the door, Butler Ling held a bowl of longan soup, hesitating to leave. Knowing Xu Chaomu was awake, she gently knocked on the door again.

“Chaomu, have some, it’s still warm. Besides, going to sleep at this hour is too early, it’s not good for the baby. Have something to eat, and when you’re done, I’ll keep you company knitting a sweater. You’ve only knitted a little for the baby’s sweater, didn’t you say you wanted to finish it before the baby’s born?”

Xu Chaomu hugged the blanket, remaining silent.

Butler Ling continued to persuade, “Chaomu, you want to give birth to a healthy and lively baby, don’t you? If you want the baby to be healthy, you absolutely can’t skip meals three times a day. I’ve been through this; I wouldn’t lie to you, you have to listen.”

Butler Ling coaxed Xu Chaomu patiently, just like a mother.

Suddenly, Xu Chaomu’s eyes welled up with tears. If her mother were still here, how nice that would be.

Her mother was also very gentle; if she were still here, she definitely wouldn’t let her suffer any grievances.

If her mother were still here, when bullied by Shen Chi, she could still go back to her parental home.

But all of these were just ifs…

She was aggrieved, with nowhere to go, wasn’t Shen Chi just taking advantage of her perceived meekness?

Her eyes teared up, and soon, two streams of tears flowed down.

Other girls, when bullied by their in-laws, would still have their own families to protect them. But she could only swallow her grievances, and even the baby had to suffer with her.

Butler Ling was good to her, but after all, she was the Shen Family’s butler; her heart must be more with Shen Chi.

“Chaomu…” Butler Ling said anxiously from outside the door.

It’s okay if Shen Chi doesn’t eat, but Xu Chaomu can’t do the same.

Just then, the door of the neighboring bedroom opened, and Shen Chi walked out with a cold face.

This man was tall, and his presence alone created an invisible pressure and aura.

He took the bowl from Butler Ling’s hands and said indifferently, “Give me the key and go downstairs.”

Butler Ling couldn’t refute and simply nodded, handing the key to Shen Chi, “Young Master, you must persuade Chaomu to eat. Don’t get angry, don’t get angry. Chaomu is a pregnant woman now, she might be a bit temperamental, which is very normal. You mustn’t get angry with her.”

“Hmm.”

Shen Chi stood at the door as Butler Ling slowly descended the stairs.

But she was still worried. Xu Chaomu had been quite happy earlier that night, even personally cooking tomato and egg soup; how had the two of them become at loggerheads so suddenly?

Normally speaking, the young master was a very mature and calm person. How could he have started quarreling with Xu Chaomu?

She couldn’t understand, just couldn’t figure it out.

No sooner had Butler Ling walked away than Shen Chi used the key to open Xu Chaomu’s door.

The room was in darkness, and then with a “snap,” Shen Chi turned on the light.

Xu Chaomu kept her eyes closed, not moving an inch.

“Get up!” Shen Chi said coldly.

Xu Chaomu snorted and pulled the blanket over her head, covering it.

Shen Chi, somewhat amused yet frustrated, placed the bowl on the table, then took steps toward the bed.

Moving over, sitting down, he nudged her with his hand.

“Get up and eat!”

“Scram.” Xu Chaomu cursed from within the blanket.

“Xu Chaomu, it looks like you don’t care about this child. If that’s the case, I’ll take you to the hospital right now to abort it!”

After speaking, he roughly pulled off her blanket and yanked her by her small arm, dragging her out from underneath it.

“What do you think you’re doing? What do you think you’re doing?!” Xu Chaomu glared at him.

“To get an abortion!”

“You dare! Shen Chi, if you fucking dare to touch my child, I swear I’ll burn the Shen Family down to the ground, believe it or not?”

Anger blazed in Xu Chaomu’s eyes, and her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at Shen Chi.

How could Shen Chi not believe her? He knew this child was her bottom line; he couldn’t touch it, no one could.

“If you don’t eat, the child won’t be healthy when born; might as well get rid of it,” Shen Chi said without any expression on his face.

“Are you not eager for me and my child to be unwell?”

“Stop babbling, you eat if you want, or forget it! The child isn’t mine anyway, what the fuck do I care!”

Shen Chi stood up, put the bowl on the bedside table with a “snap,” and it landed heavily.

“Shen Chi, what is this attitude?”

His tone, his expression, it was as if she was the one in the wrong today.

“Xu Chaomu, I’ll ask you one more time, are you going to eat or not?”

“I won’t eat!”

“Fine, be stubborn. I’ll leave the bowl here, whether you eat it or not is up to you!”

Shen Chi had lost his patience, gave her a scornful look, and walked straight away from her bedside.

Reaching the door, he closed it; with a “clang,” it startled Butler Ling downstairs, who was pretending to be busy.

Xu Chaomu’s stubborn temper also flared up; this man was simply unreasonable.

Out of the blue, he suspected her of misconduct overseas, and now that she had a reunion with Lou Yanli today, he saw it, and it upset him again.

This man, as narrow-minded as the eye of a needle.

“Shen Chi, you bastard of an uncle!”

Xu Chaomu cursed, and with a push of her hand, she knocked the bedside bowl onto the floor!

With a “clang,” the porcelain bowl hit the floor tiles and shattered.

The dates, silver fungus, longan… scattered all over, still steaming and fragrant.

If she got hold of the video, and if, just if, the child in her belly really turns out to be Shen Chi’s, she would make him suffer.

Just for his attitude today, she would ensure her baby calls him “Uncle Four,” Uncle Four!

She would make him be called Uncle Four for the rest of his life!

That night, Xu Chaomu didn’t care a bit about Shen Chi; she locked the door from the inside, securely and tightly.

If she couldn’t get the autographed photo, she might as well find someone else.

As for Shen Chi, hearing the commotion on her side, he came over to push at her door, pushed a few times but couldn’t budge it; he knew she was angry.

He admitted that he was wrong tonight, but thinking of apologizing, he just couldn’t open his mouth.

With a snort, he went downstairs.

He had not noticed earlier that a bowl of tomato and egg soup was placed on the dining table downstairs.

The soup was still steaming, and from a distance, it looked passable.

Shen Chi approached the dining table and observed the bowl of soup for a good while.

Butler Ling, who was cleaning on the side, quickly approached and said with a smile, “Young Master, this was personally made by Chaomu…”
