If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 109: Come Home with Me

Translator: 549690339

“Third brother, let’s dance. You haven’t danced for me tonight. I want you to dance with me,” Xu Chaomu shook Shen Shihan’s arm, completely ignoring Shen Chi, as if he didn’t exist.

“Your fourth brother dances even better than I do. Why not invite him?” Shen Shihan’s gaze shifted to Shen Chi.

“If you don’t dance, I’ll just dance by myself,” Xu Chaomu said without turning back, determined not to look at Shen Chi. Why didn’t Shen Shihan take her side?

“Sit down!”

Just as Xu Chaomu was about to stand up, Shen Chi grabbed her wrist, his grip penetrating through the paper.

His voice was subdued and deep, like dark clouds pressing down, instantly cooling the atmosphere by several degrees.

“If you don’t let go of my hand, I’ll scream ‘pervert’!” Xu Chaomu was not about to show any weakness.

“Yell if you’re not ashamed,” Shen Chi said, looking at her with disdain; he wasn’t going to fall for that.

After rolling her eyes several times, Xu Chaomu compromised and turned her pleading gaze towards Shen Shihan.

“Third brother, are you going to do anything about this?”

Shen Shihan smiled, his smile as clear as the moonlight in the sky: “I really can’t intervene here. Chaomu, why don’t you tell a story about a little white rabbit and see if your fourth brother is willing to let go?”

“You’re all bullying me. You have no shame,” Xu Chaomu muttered, lowering her eyelids.

Two wolves!

“The wind is picking up; it’s too cold on the mountain. Come home with me,” Shen Chi told Xu Chaomu.

“I don’t want to go back!” Xu Chaomu began to struggle to free her hand vigorously. She tried to push him away, and when that failed, she scratched.

She didn’t say “don’t want to go home”; she said “don’t want to go back” because she no longer considered that place home.

It was Shen Chi’s home, not hers. Her home had been completely gone since she was ten years old.

Soon, Shen Chi’s hand bore several bloody marks from Xu Chaomu’s nails.

As music reverberated all around, Shen Chi’s eyes showed helplessness.

Xu Chaomu pulled her wrist out and hid beside Shen Shihan. She really did look like a frightened little white rabbit.

“Chaomu, go back with your fourth brother. You have classes tomorrow and can’t be too late. Have you finished all your weekend homework?” Shen Shihan said.

“She’s going to copy someone else’s tomorrow anyway,” Shen Chi snorted coldly, knowing Xu Chaomu like the back of his hand.

Xu Chaomu, when sleepless at night, did work hard on her homework, even though she didn’t know how to do much of it, but she did try.

Now, Shen Chi was denying her efforts and even slandering her for copying homework.

“I have been doing my homework; don’t slander me. I won’t copy homework in the future.’

This resolution was her own; she had to work hard, or what would she do in the future?

“Okay, come home with me. Don’t catch a cold,” Shen Chi didn’t say much more.

It didn’t really matter to him whether she copied her homework or not. He could afford to support her regardless.

“I’m not going back with you. Third brother said he would take me to spend the night on the mountain. I don’t understand why you’re even here.” Xu Chaomu’s whole day had been ruined by Shen Chi.

“Oh?” Shen Chi glanced at Shen Shihan. The dark depth in his eyes was profound, like the still waters of a deep pool.

Shen Shihan smiled again, “Chaomu, I’ll bring you here another time. The wind has picked up on the mountain, and I haven’t booked a hotel. Just go back with your fourth brother.”

“Third brother, you broke your promise.”

“Here’s a bracelet for you, as an apology for breaking my promise. Please don’t be angry, okay?” Shen Shihan somehow had a silver bracelet, which he had apparently bought from somewhere.

The bracelet was small and exquisite, adorned with a tiny kitten charm. The kitten was very small and very cute.

The bracelet indeed suited Xu Chaomu’s style.

Perhaps because she was so taken with the kitten charm, she took the bracelet grudgingly: “I’ll take the bracelet, but I’m not going back with him. Third brother, you take me.”

“Your third brother’s car is broken!” Shen Chi caught Xu Chaomu’s hand decisively, his assertiveness allowing no room for her resistance.

Enough with the nonsense!

“Hey, shameless villain, if you keep this up, I’ll get angry! I’m terrifying when I’m angry! Hey, why won’t you let go? I’m going to bite you..

Shen Chi was already on guard and, before Xu Chaomu could bite down, he pushed her onto the cable car.

Tianju Mountain was very high, and although it was night, looking down from the cable car was still terrifying.

Xu Chaomu, frightened, covered her eyes: “I’m scared…

“I thought you were very brave?” Shen Chi snorted coldly.

Just then, the cable car started moving with a slight tremor, and Xu Chaomu’s heart almost leapt out of her throat.

Her legs were weak and trembling, and she shamefully whimpered, clinging to the cable car’s handrail for dear life: “Shen Chi, you’re such a bastard. Aside from bullying me, what else can you do? You have the nerve to bully Bai Man…”

A cold wind whistled past their ears…

Whoosh, hiss.

The piercing howl terrified Xu Chaomu.

Her heart pounded wildly, unrestrained.

Uncontrollably shaking, the cable car descended rapidly, giving her the sensation of walking on a tightrope.

Heart pounding, anxious and unsettled.

She shook violently, her lips trembling as they quivered, her eyes too scared to open.

The wind was so strong that the harsh howling sounded like the wailing of wolves.

In the wind, she thought she heard Shen Chi sigh. The next second, she was enveloped in his embrace.

His chest was firm and warm. When she fell against him, it was like a lost rabbit finding a cozy burrow to snuggle into.

His hands tightly circled her waist. Feeling her severe trembling, he held on even tighter, refusing to let go.

“Don’t be afraid; we’ll be there soon.

Xu Chaomu nested in his arms, not daring to look up or speak, just clutching his clothes tightly.

His scent was pleasant, spreading through the wind, making it seem even clearer and more faint.

Shen Shihan also stood up, his brows furrowed and his gaze deep, showing no emotion. His eyes darkened like ink, vast and fathomless as the stars above. Gradually, he stooped down to pick up the garland from the ground.

It had fallen during Xu Chaomu’s struggle.

He held it in his hand, his lips moved slightly, and with a flick of his hand, he tossed the garland down the mountain.

When Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu landed safely, Xu Chaomu’s heart was still pounding fiercely.

Xu Chaomu clung to Shen Chi’s clothes like an octopus, her face deathly pale.

Her legs continued to shake shamefully, her facial expression extremely somber.

She held him, and he didn’t push her away.

Xu Chaomu pressed against Shen Chi’s chest; how could his heart still beat so steadily?

“Let go if you’ve had enough of hugging, ” his indifferent voice came from above her.

Xu Chaomu then realized she was still clinging tightly to him.

So, she grabbed his clean shirt, crumpled it, and wiped her hands, smearing all the mud, snot, and tears onto his clothes.

That made her feel a bit better.

“What are you doing?” Shen Chi looked disgusted, catching her errant hands.

He then glanced at his shirt, crinkled and untidy.

“Where are you taking me?” Xu Chaomu asked with a hint of defiance.

“Home.”
