Bai Man is not the kind of woman who doesnt understand things, Zhou Ran said. If you treat her well, she will treat you well in return, and even if you dont, she will still treat you well. After all, she loves you.
Shen Chi didnt speak, he simply picked up his cup in silence.
Is Xu Chaomu still clinging to you? Zhou Ran asked again.
Shes like that with everyone. Theres no clinging to speak of.
Her last name is Xu, yours is Shen; you dont have to be too nice to her, Zhou Ran said nonchalantly. I came back this time to meet with Old Mr. Bai and have a meal together. You should bring Bai Man along. While were at it, we can discuss your wedding arrangements.
Whatever you say is fine, Shen Chi responded, without any particular emotion.
Youre busy with the groups affairs and you also have to guard against Liu Rumei at home. I wont say much, you know what I mean, Zhou Ran said in a muted tone.
This coffee is quite good, rich and aromatic, Shen Chi said with a slight curve of his lips.
Zhou Ran glanced at him, knowing he didnt want to listen.
Meanwhile, on the street, the taxi had quickly driven far away.
Xu Chaomu sat in the car with a displeased expression on her face, deciding that she would cut ties with Shen Chi from now on!
She was going to study hard, then work hard to earn money, and then take over Shen Group, making Shen Chi homeless, and then have him beg her, and then
keep him!
Xu Chaomu fantasized about the future all the way
As she thought about it, Xu Chaomu felt much more comfortable inside.
She hummed a tune, and her mood shifted from gloomy to sunny.
After keeping Shen Chi, shed first have to train him, get rid of his bad temper, then teach him how to warm her bed, teach him how to cherish and pamper women
She would definitely train him to be very submissive!
And then
Miss, weve arrived! the driver woke her from her daydream.
Ah? Oh.
Xu Chaomu rubbed her eyes and pouted, obediently getting out of the car.
By the time she arrived at the Shen Family home, it was already noon. The Shen home was quite lively in the morning, but now, there was no sound to be heard.
Had everyone gone for a nap?
She tiptoed toward the Shen Familys living room, and as she passed the garden, only a few servants were seen weeding under the sun.
Seeing her return, they looked at her strangely, but only glanced up at Xu Chaomu briefly before looking back down.
Xu Chaomu didnt pay it much mind, only feeling that today seemed especially quiet. The Shen Family was quite large; usually, at this time, wouldnt they all be talking and laughing? Sometimes there would even be guests.
Used to being carefree, Xu Chaomu didnt find anything odd and headed to the living room as usual.
But as soon as she entered the living room, she was startled!
Why was everybody gathered around the tableLiu Rumei, Shen Yanrou, Bai Man, Butler Ling
There were also a few people she didnt recognize; they seemed to be Bai Mans agents?
As soon as they saw her enter, everyones gaze almost simultaneously turned toward her.
Suspicion, confusion, turmoil!
All sorts of complexities!
Xu Chaomus heart skipped a beat. What was going on?
Feigning calm, Xu Chaomu pulled out a smile like that of blooming peach blossoms: Good afternoon, everyone.
No one acknowledged her, the room remained silent!
Xu Chaomu walked forward, and she could even hear her own footsteps!
What was this about?
Just as she was about to go upstairs, Liu Rumei was the first to speak.
Chaomu, come over here, Liu Rumei said in a very serious toneit was rare for her to be so earnest.
Xu Chaomu turned her head, Are you calling me?
Yes, come here and sit on this side, Liu Rumei directed, pointing to the seat in front of her.
As Xu Chaomu walked over, she quickly glanced over everyone. Liu Rumei still had that slick expression on her face, while Shen Yanrou was looking haughty.
As for Bai Man, with her arms folded and dressed in a cheongsam, she appeared especially aloof.
Bai Man wasnt supposed to be with the film crew? Why had she come back?
The atmosphere in the living room was chilly. Several of Bai Mans assistants and servants stood around, making the space feel oppressively crowded.
Having taken a seat, Xu Chaomu inquired, Whats the matter?
Butler Ling, close the front door, Shen Yanrou added, her tone quite arrogant.
Yes, Butler Lings face showed constant apprehension; he dared not say much else. Upon hearing the second Misss orders, he would certainly comply.
With the living room door shut, the room fell even quieter!
Xu Chaomu was really bewildered, what on earth was going on?
The room was silent, and Xu Chaomu thought she could hear Bai Man sigh.
Miss Bai, best you tell it yourself Shen Yanrou addressed Bai Man.
Bai Man had a pained expression, her eyebrows tightly knitted, clearly reluctant to speak. She hugged her arms, not looking at Xu Chaomu, with a sorrowful look on her lightly made-up face.
Xu Chaomu was quite close to Bai Man; she could even smell her perfume.
I dont want to say anything, Bai Man said indifferently after a long silence. Her tone was very muted, lofty and detached.
Xu Chaomu was about to slam the table and walk away. What the hell, they called her over to speak directly, not to beat around the bush like they were putting on a circus act?!
Stay calm, stay calm; she couldnt lose her temper with these people.
She had initially had a good impression of Bai Manbeautiful, gentle, and coming from a wealthy family. But ever since Bai Man had spoken to her in the car last time, her fondness for her had waned bit by bit.
If Miss Bai refuses to speak, am I to play the villain then? Liu Rumei raised her eyebrows and looked at Bai Man.
Its not a big deal, the item has been found, so lets just leave it, Bai Man said languidly.
Miss Bai might not want to make a fuss, but with a thief in the Shen Family, we wont feel at ease in the future, Shen Yanrou said with a tinge of sarcasm.
Xu Chaomu was no fool; she seemed to understand what was happening! She might just think its fun, or she doesnt welcome me, Bai Man maintained her tone.
Forget it, let me be straightforward, to avoid future trouble for everyone. This matter also pains me deeply, Liu Rumei got up.
She walked up to Xu Chaomu in her black sweater, and opened a red jewelry box right in front of her.
Inside the box was a very beautiful necklace, the pendant made of sapphire, surrounded by big and stunning diamonds that sparkled under the light. Xu Chaomus eyes widened at the sight of the beautiful necklace.
The gem was so large, it must be expensive!
Chaomu, this is a sapphire from Sri Lanka, given to Miss Bai by your fourth brother. This morning, Miss Bai rushed off to the film set and later discovered that the necklace was missing, Liu Rumei said, watching Xu Chaomu intently.
If Xu Chaomu didnt understand now, she would be a fool. She propped her chin and looked at Liu Rumei calmly, So what?
Later on, this necklace was found in your room. Dont you think you owe us an explanation
Xu Chaomu sprang to her feet, furious. Who had allowed them to enter her room?
Anger! Outrage! Indignation!
Her eyes were full of fury and blazing flames!
Xu Chaomu felt like her lungs were about to explode; facing everyone at the table, she shouted, Who said you could go into my room?!
