Chapter 520: Chapter 520 No Need to Feel Bad for You and Your Son

His eyes, sharp as a hawk, stared intently at her belly.

At a casual glance, the signs of her pregnancy wouldn’t stand out.

But with a slightly closer look, one could see her abdomen was faintly bulging.

His fists slowly clenched, tighter and tighter…

No matter how good he was to her, no matter how much she verbally expressed missing him, it wouldn’t change the fact that the child in her belly was Nie Chenglang’s.

She had gone behind his back to meet Nie Chenglang yesterday, and there would be a next time, and a time after that.

Moreover, once her child was born, the indestructible bond between father and child would only grow stronger.

At that time, would she stay peacefully by his side?

“Xu Chaomu,” he called her name in a low voice, his face clouding over.

Biting her lip, she lifted her clear eyes to stare at him.

He just wouldn’t admit his mistake!

Fine, if he wouldn’t admit it, she wouldn’t force him. A melon forced off its vine is not sweet.

“If you refuse to return to Waterside Pavilion, so be it. After all, the child in your belly isn’t mine, Shen Chi, I have no need to worry about you and your child. If you like it outside, then stay! If you dare, let Nie Chenglang come for you!”

Shen Chi’s temper flared too, and he threw the handbag with a clang in front of her!

The movement was rough and direct, and immediately, the medicine within the bag scattered across the ground!

His face turned black as he scowled, his complexion dreadful.

His icy and piercing gaze stabbed at her, his fists clenched as he turned and walked towards Waterside Pavilion.

The medicine boxes lay scattered at her feet, lying quietly on the ground.

She bit her lip, biting deeper and deeper, the pain growing.

Lifting her head, her dark and glossy eyes followed his tall retreating figure.

Her eyes suddenly reddened, and tears swirled within them as she wiped her eyes.

She didn’t know where she gathered the courage, but she used all her strength to shout at his retreating figure.

“Shen Chi, if you dare, never see me again!”

Shen Chi stopped in his tracks, his tall and upright silhouette stretching in the light. Hearing her voice, his back went cold.

Slowly, his fists clenched even tighter.

“I hate those who threaten me the most.”

The frosty voice reached Xu Chaomu’s ears, and she bit down on her lips subconsciously.

The figure of the man vanished into the night. After uttering those words, he truly walked away from Waterside Pavilion without looking back.

Xu Chaomu gritted her teeth, standing still on the spot.

Tears circled in her eyes. She pinched the back of her hand, sternly reminding herself: “Have some dignity!”

Returning to C City after five years and seeing him, they could almost quarrel every few days. Just a little too much talk would set them off.

This time, they hadn’t seen each other for several days. She thought perhaps the yearning would be a bit stronger, but in the end, it was the same.

His words from just before still echoed in her ears: After all, the child in your belly isn’t mine, Shen Chi. I have no need to worry about you and your child. If you like it outside, then stay.

Ha, the idea that he would regard her child as his own, for someone like him to say such things, she should never have believed it.

Who is he? The golden boy Shen Chi.

Why should he want a child that isn’t his?

As the resolute silhouette vanished from her view, Xu Chaomu’s heart ached vaguely.

The evening wind blew, lifting her long hair.

At this hour before dawn, it was very cold. And she, wearing only a short-sleeved long dress.

She wrapped her arms around herself, but the chill on her body wasn’t as cold as the one in her heart.

The medicine boxes scattered at her feet, she bent down, picking them up one by one, placing them back in the handbag.

Shen Chi after five years hadn’t changed at all in his bones.

Only when all the medicine boxes were back in the handbag did she stand up.

She hadn’t cried. There was nothing for her to cry about.

Carrying the handbag and cradling her arms, she began walking away along the road in front of Waterside Pavilion.

The wind blew over her body, chillingly cold.

Shen Chi had taken her phone, so she had no way to call anyone she knew. She was a bit worried about Nie Chenglang… How was he now?

If the fever was severe, without being taken to the hospital, and without medication, the consequences could be dire.

He must not have anything wrong.

Xu Chaomu walked along the road for quite a while, growing colder and colder. She hadn’t noticed before, but now, she really wished she had a coat to wrap around herself.

She hugged her arms tightly, trying to walk under the trees to avoid some of the wind.

The sky was overcast and dark, with no moon or stars visible. The oppressive blackness made her footsteps heavy as well.

She dragged her long dress, looking down at the path beneath her feet.

Slowly, she moved her hand to her abdomen.

Touching her belly, she felt the presence of the small life within.

With it accompanying her along the way, she wasn’t alone.

The morning sickness had obviously lessened a lot these days, and she had planned to have Shen Chi accompany her to the hospital in a few days.

The night wind blew against her, and she tried her best to hug her arms tightly. She didn’t want to catch a chill.

No, she definitely couldn’t catch a chill.

If she did, she would certainly catch a cold and cough, and then what would happen to her child…

The sound of the fountain outside Waterside Pavilion grew more and more distant, fading to an indistinct murmur.

Xu Chaomu just kept walking along the road, not too quickly, as she didn’t dare to hasten her steps.

She didn’t know what time it was now, but she thought it must be getting light soon. It would be better once it was light, not so cold.

As she walked along the road, many memories came to her.

She remembered that as a child, she and Shen Chi often quarreled too.

Shen Chi had a bad attitude, no matter the issue, anything he didn’t like the look of, he would show her a cold face, right or wrong.

Like the time she spent half the day on worksheets and, absolutely exhausted, wanted to relax a bit, so she picked up a storybook to read.

She was enjoying her book when a long hand snatched it away!

“How many times have I said, no extracurricular books!” he scolded her coldly, his face stern.

He questioned her without any attempt at understanding.

“I’ve been doing my homework, so many worksheets!” she argued, indignantly throwing a whole stack of completed papers in front of him.

“You probably just copied them,” Shen Chi snorted.

At the time, Shen Chi was only eighteen, but Xu Chaomu was even younger, just thirteen.

In his eyes, she was nothing but a bad student who only knew how to copy homework.

Useless, wasting time on worthless reads, copying homework, guessing her way through tests.

That day, she truly had worked diligently and hard on the worksheets, but he negated her efforts entirely.

Xu Chaomu, furious, confronted him: “Shen Chi, by what right do you say such things about me? I did those papers myself. Although they aren’t done well enough, every question was answered by me! Moreover, I only took the storybook to read for a break after working hard!”

“Stop making excuses!” Shen Chi said with an icy face.

Xu Chaomu felt it was impossible to communicate with him, and she reached out to snatch her book back!
