If You Could Hear My Heart Chapter 34

Chapter 34: A Harbinger of Disaster

After leaving the dance, they headed home, reaching the Shen residence in no time. Before they got out of the car, Shen Chi straightened up Xu Zhaomu’s hair.

“Does your wound still hurt?”

He inspected the gauze at the back of her head with a worried frown. Xu Zhaomu squirmed the moment he touched it.

“Of course it hurts.” She pouted.

Shen Chi didn’t say anything else. He picked her up and took her upstairs.

Xu Zhaomu was very upset. Shen Chi had emphasized that she wasn’t an outsider. But he had refused to answer her when she asked him who he was going to marry.

He was going to get married soon. And she didn’t even have the right to know anything about it.

How could he say that he wasn’t treating her as an outsider?

Anger overwhelmed her, and she jumped out of his arms. She removed his suit jacket that had been draped over her and threw it back to him. Then she marched off to her own room without a backward glance.

She slammed her door shut with a loud bang.

“Zhaomu, Zhaomu!” Shen Chi felt completely exasperated. He knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response.

Xu Zhaomu remembered the love letter that Luo Yanli had passed to her. She retrieved it from her mathematics book.

“My yearning for you is like the full moon, from dusk to dawn.”

It would have been great if Shen Chi had been the one who had written this letter.

Unfortunately, he was going to get married soon.

She had always been the one making moves on him all these years. And, evidently, not once had his heart been moved.

The more she thought about this, the angrier she became. Whatever, if he was allowed to get married, then she was allowed to date. She would go to a movie with Luo Yanli tomorrow and see how their feelings would develop.

When the time came for him to get married, she would get married at the same time. Two fortuitous events on the same day, how wonderful that would be.

As Xu Zhaomu pondered over all this, her mood improved. She went to take a shower while humming a little tune.

Alas, joy breeds sorrow. She instantly forgot that her head was still wounded and that it could not come into contact with water.

The moment hot water drizzled on her wound, Xu Zhaomu gnashed her teeth in pain.

“Ah!” She screamed and jumped. She pressed her hand against the wound with an exceedingly pale complexion.

It was really painful…

Shen Chi had been changing his clothes next door. When he heard Xu Zhaomu’s shriek, he rushed over frantically. He opened the door of Xu Zhaomu’s room and kicked the bathroom door open.

“Mumu, what’s happened?” Anxiety was written all over his face. He’d practically broken the door down.

“Ah, ah, ah, you damned pervert, get out. Get out!” Xu Zhaomu hastily wrapped a bath towel around her body.

F*ck. Her movements had been a bit too late. She suspected that Shen Chi had seen everything.

However, he stifled his laughter as he stood rooted in place. He crossed his arms and leaned against the door as he watched her leisurely.

As he had been in the process of getting undressed, he had unfastened the top buttons of his shirt. He appeared rather unruly.

“Damned ruffian, pervert. Get out! Who said you could come in?”

Xu Zhaomu was furious. Fire burned in her eyes, almost to the point of emitting smoke.

Her tiny hands gripped the towel around her, frightened that it would fall off. Water was still dripping from her hair. In contrast to Shen Chi’s composure, she appeared exceptionally unhinged.

“I’ve already seen everything I should see. And I have also seen everything I shouldn’t have seen.” Shen Chi stared at her nonchalantly. His smile widened.

Xu Zhaomu felt like jabbing out his eyes. What did he mean by seeing everything that he should have seen, as well as everything he shouldn’t have seen?

“Get lost! I don’t want to see you.” Xu Zhaomu bellowed in anger.

Shen Chi wasn’t angry. A teasing smile appeared on his face. He walked over and grabbed a dry towel from the rack. Then he started to help her to dry her hair gently.

“The doctor instructed you not to get it wet,” he said softly.

Xu Zhaomu was so vexed that her lungs were on the verge of exploding. Everything In her mind had been mushed into paste. She retreated two steps backward as she stared at Shen Chi.

He was behaving rather unusually today. It was so abnormal that she felt she had to be on her guard.

“Stop flailing around. Otherwise, you’ll let me see everything again.”

Every time she retreated, he would take one step forward. Once she was finally cornered, he tugged on her arm and helped dry her hair.

Had she consented? Had she f*cking consented?

What did he mean when he said that she’d be at a loss if he saw everything again? She was already at a loss.

How shameful. Shouldn’t she be the one taking liberties with him instead?

“You…you…leave. I can dry it on my own.”

His gestures were very gentle. As he dried her hair, a peculiar feeling arose within her.

“It’ll be better if you continue to hold the towel around you.” Shen Chi flashed a quick smile.

Xu Zhaomu really wanted to kick him silly. By chance, she had read a few interesting tidbits from Yu Weiwei’s men’s health manual which had explained the weakest body part of a man.

However, if she raised her leg to kick him, she might very well expose herself again.

“Don’t get your head wet again,” Shen Chi warned her. His voice was as tyrannical as always.

“I’ve already said that I don’t want you to care about me,” Xu Zhaomu replied.

“Don’t assume that I want to care about you. If I wasn’t afraid of your life being a harbinger of disaster, I wouldn’t spend any of my time caring about you.”

“You’re just worried that I’ll embarrass you. All right, then. Before I bring disaster to others, I’ll bring disaster to you.”

The moment Xu Zhaomu said this, she wrapped her towel around her tightly, and she shoved Shen Chi forcefully up against the wall. Following which, she pressed against his body. Her nimble little fingers started to work on the buttons of his shirt.

She wanted to show him what a female pervert looked like.

She wanted to show him what a harbinger of disaster looked like.

Her move took Shen Chi completely by surprise. He tried to stop her.

It was unknown how Xu Zhaomu had obtained this sudden burst of strength. Her little hand ripped open Shen Chi’s collar. His buttons fell to the floor one by one.

Shen Chi’s seductive wheat-colored skin was instantly exposed. His lean figure and strong muscles appeared handsome and forbidding.

Xu Zhaomu wrapped her arms around his neck. Her damp hair scattered over his neck, igniting every single spark within Shen Chi’s body.

His breathing became urgent, and his body became aroused.

“Xu Zhaomu, you are shameless! Have you gone crazy?” he shouted in a hoarse voice.

In the end, Shen Chi was still stronger than Xu Zhaomu. His large hand grabbed Xu Zhaomu’s slender arm. He switched their positions and pushed her against the wall.

Xu Zhaomu was obviously unwilling to give up. Hadn’t he called her a harbinger of disaster? Didn’t he find her shameful?

She threw caution to the wind and decided that she was going to shame him to the end. She was indeed shameless, what was he going do about it?

She counterattacked and climbed onto Shen Chi’s waist with her hands hooked around his neck. She recalled the illustrations she’d seen in her manga and rubbed against him continuously.

Shen Chi’s breathing was getting rougher by the second. The fragrance wafting from Xu Zhaomu’s body further excited his senses. The girl had a unique and distinctive scent. She smelt faintly like plum and lotus.

Very soon, Xu Zhaomu realized something unusual.

“Fourth Brother…”

Her vision was blurry as she called out his name. Stretching out her hands, she tried to take the towel off her body. But just before the knot was unraveled, Shen Chi’s face darkened. He grabbed her forcefully and hauled her onto the bed.

After tossing her onto the bed, his complexion looked as if it had been strangled by anger.

He really wanted to throttle her to death.

“Xu Zhaomu, let me tell you this. This shall be the last time I say this. If you dare to act in this way again, you can forget about staying in the Shen residence. The Shen family can’t afford to have someone like you be a part of them.”

Shen Chi’s voice was deep and strangled. A raging fire was still burning in his body. However, his words were commanding and imposing, oozing with a frostiness that threatened to permeate her bones.

Shen Chi was really angry. She could see frost and ice in his eyes.
