Tears of excitement Shen Chi couldnt hold it in and laughed out loud.
Whats so funny, Xu Chaomu grumbled softly.
Get in the car!
Im not getting in! Xu Chaomu turned and walked away.
Shen Chi opened the car door and dragged her onto the passenger seat.
B0x.comYoure getting in even if you dont want to! Sit tight! Dont move! Shen Chi fastened her seatbelt, his tone imperiously commanding.
Xu Chaomu made a ghost face with gnashing teeth: Yeah, sure, getting in is more like it!
Shen Chis face was lined with frustration as he once again realized the failure of his own familys upbringing.
He drove towards the villa, and Xu Chaomu still ignored him. By the time they reached the garage, she huffily got out of the car by herself and went upstairs with her handbag.
Once upstairs, she took out a tie box from her handbag.
She didnt know much about ties or brands. She simply thought it was attractive and that it would look even better on Shen Chi.
She changed her mind again, she no longer wanted to give it to Shen Chi. He was about to get married. Wasnt there someone else who would give him ties? Even if she gave it to him, he wouldnt cherish it.
Just as she was staring at the tie, Shen Chi came in through the door.
Xu Chaomu put the tie back in the box, and just as she was about to put it away, Shen Chi grabbed her hand.
Not planning to give it to me? he said indifferently.
Why would you need me to give you a tie, Shen Chi? Doesnt Miss Bai Man buy you plenty of nice ones? This one is for Lou Yanli, dont flatter yourself! Xu Chaomu tried to pull her wrist free, but this mans grip was so strong!
She tugged, tugged, tugged
Okay, she couldnt pull it free.
I bought it with my money, Im taking it!
With one hand holding Xu Chaomu, Shen Chi took the box in his other hand.
Shen Chi! Youre shameless!
Xu Chaomu tried to snatch the box back. Damn, she had never seen someone so shameless. If she wouldnt give it, he just took it himself!
She really had her eyes opened!
Isnt it only right that I take it? He raised his eyebrows and only then released Xu Chaomus wrist.
Xu Chaomu continued to try to snatch it back, but she was no match for this man.
So, she could only watch helplessly as the tie was taken away
What a bandit of a man! Wheres the promised courtesy? The elegance? All gone to hell!
Xu Chaomu, whats yours is mine, and whats mine is still mine. Shen Chi smirked and touched her cheek.
Xu Chaomu really wanted to kick him to death: I always said your character was terrible. How could anyone dare to marry you?
Would you dare to marry me?
Right, didnt I hear that you have midterms coming up? Shen Chi cut her off. Actually, he was afraid to hear the answer she might say aloud.
So what if we do, Ill just try not to come in last!
Ambitious, Shen Chi frowned, his voice low.
How could he, Shen Chi, have raised such an uninspired girl!
Its not like you just met me, Xu Chaomu gave up all pretense.
If you get into the top ten this time, I have something for you, Shen Chi spoke lightly.
Xu Chaomu looked up and met Shen Chis gaze. His eyes were always so deep, like an endless sky, with no sight of their limit.
What is it? If its not tempting, I dont have much motivation, Xu Chaomu pouted.
Something you want. Shen Chi stood up without saying anything further and walked out of Xu Chaomus room with the tie box in hand.
Xu Chaomu watched his retreating figure for a long time. Something she wanted?
When it was time for dinner, Shen Chi was not at home.
Liu Rumei was concerned about Xu Chaomu while eating: Chaomu, hows your studying going recently?
Not bad. My ranking at the bottom is pretty stable, Xu Chaomu replied without looking up.
If you dont understand something, you can ask your third brother, or even your second sister, Liu Rumei said.
Third brother, I believe, but second sister? Does she even know? Xu Chaomu sneered.
Shen Yanrou, who was sitting nearby, felt humiliated and said sourly, As if I never came in last.
Coming in last doesnt mean Im not smart. Consistently being at the bottom takes skill too, Xu Chaomu argued illogically.
Whenever Shen Chi was not at home, they would inevitably create a ruckus at the dinner table. But the moment Shen Chi returned, nobody dared to speak.
After eating for a while, Xu Chaomu felt like it was akin to chewing wax and stopped eating. However, just as she was about to leave, she saw a newspaper on the sofa.
It was probably Shen Chis rule that newspapers and magazines were not allowed in the living room. Xu Chaomu could hardly ever see newspapers and magazines at the Shens residence.
The newspaper today must have been left by a careless servant, right?
She casually flipped through it until she paused on the entertainment section.
A giant photo nearly occupied the entire page!
Popular actress Bai Man seen in a bar date with a mystery man, suspected to be Shen Group CEO Shen Chi.
Xu Chaomu stared at the photo, her eyes not moving at all.
In the photo, the woman was ambiguously untying the mans tie with her head lowered, her body partially shielding the man. Their poses were extremely intimate, leading one to suspect they were kissing.
Xu Chaomus heart skipped a beat!
Although the mans face was not shown in the photo, she knew his every move too well!
The watch on his wrist was something she didnt recognize by brand, but having seen him wear it for so many years, she couldnt be mistaken!
Moreover, the person with Bai Man had to be Shen Chi!
Her heart pounded wildly, her entire bodys blood boiling.
Her little hand clutching the newspaper tightened and tightened
Suddenly, she noticed a tie box on the table in the photo, containing a black diagonal-striped tie!
Xu Chaomu crumpled the newspaper into a ball in her hand and rushed swiftly to Shen Chis room!
Rage fused within her chest, the feeling that she had been deceived and played with overwhelmed her!
Bai Man gave him a tie, and yet he insisted on taking hers away.
He just thought it was fun to bully her.
All these years, hadnt he always treated her as a pet?
When he was unhappy, she would play with him to cheer him up; when he was displeased, he would vent his irritation on her; he commanded, and she had to obey; when he was in a bad mood, she was subjected to his unreasonableness, his tyranny!
Yet, he didnt inform her about the dance; she was the last to know about his fiance.
He would ruthlessly throw her on the bed, leaving her with a broken head and bleeding, but would he do that to Bai Man? No, he would be too distressed.
What did he consider her? Merely a pet. A pet for him to order around and amuse himself with.
Swallowing back her tears, Xu Chaomu bit her teeth and began banging furiously on Shen Chis door!
She knew he wasnt there, and she knew he had a habit of locking his door, but she still wanted to knock, as if with each hit, she was striking at him, soothing her feelings bit by bit!
Shen Chi you bastard all these years treating me as a pet, funny to you, isnt it
As Xu Chaomu continued to knock, she eventually broke down crying and slowly squatted down by the door. She buried herself in her knees, tears streaming uncontrollably.
