If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 367: Dare to Touch My Woman, You’re Looking for Death

Shen Chi’s tone was sharp, icy, and deep enough to intimidate the whole room.

Xu Chaomu’s heart also skipped a beat, knowing that when this man lost his temper, he was not one to be trifled with.

Once he lost his temper, even she would tremble.

Sure enough, the woman was frightened into silence, daring not to utter another word.

The saleswoman had long since been too scared to speak. This man’s presence was commanding and intimidating, even without anger.

At this moment, only the fat man continued to loudly speak on the phone, “Yes, yes, come over right now. Yes, eighty-eight thousand. You know I can afford it, don’t you? My wife has her heart set on this, so hurry up, do as I just told you!”

“Ten minutes, I’ll give you ten minutes to get here!”

“Yes, I’ll treat you to a meal if this works out, I’m being generous, right?”

“Now, if you’re not here in ten minutes, you wait for me to find your chairman! I’ve dined at the same table as him!”

Xu Chaomu tugged at Shen Chi’s sleeve when she heard the fat man on the phone, “Brother-in-law… I’m scared.”

“Mumu you little rascal, keep pretending,” Shen Chi bent down and whispered in her ear.

His eyes were full of doting, and his gaze tender, a stark contrast to the fiery Shen Chi from moments before.

“Oh, you know how to be scared now?” the woman said with a touch of pride, “Weren’t you acting tough just now? Hand over the longevity lock, or it’ll be ugly when we really have a falling out.”

The fat man finished his call and walked over, draping an arm over the woman’s shoulder, “Honey, what’s going on, they still won’t budge?”

“Yeah, these young people nowadays don’t know their place,” the woman sneered.

“Don’t waste words with them, just take it!” The fat man acted as if he had backing.

He walked over to Xu Chaomu, pushed her, and reached out to snatch the brocade box from her hand!

Xu Chaomu hadn’t expected him to push her, lost her footing, and staggered backward.

Fortunately, Shen Chi was quick to act, catching her waist with one hand!

“Looking for trouble, are you?” Shen Chi said coldly as he grabbed the fat man’s wrist and gave it a hard twist!

A “crack” was heard, followed by a wail from the fat man!

“Ah!”

Shen Chi gripped his wrist and completely crippled the hand that had pushed Xu Chaomu.

The fat man’s eyes squeezed shut as he wailed like a slaughtered pig, his face contorted with pain in myriad colors as if he were in a dye factory.

His woman was so frightened that she lost color, covering her mouth, unable to make a sound.

With a shove, Shen Chi pushed the man away. A loud “thud” echoed as the man fell to the ground!

In an instant, Shen Chi covered Xu Chaomu’s eyes, pressing her close to his chest.

“Mumu, close your eyes.”

“Oh.”

Xu Chaomu obediently closed her eyes, leaning on Shen Chi’s chest, her small hands tightly gripping his shirt.

Her little heart was still thumping wildly. If it hadn’t been for Shen Chi’s quick reflexes, she would have been pushed to the ground.

The fat man lay on the ground, groaning with pain.

“Husband, husband…” The woman finally reacted, crying as she went to help her man.

“Husband, what’s wrong with you, are you okay?” The woman was panicked, seemingly stunned by fear.

“Ah! Ah!” The man’s features twisted in agony, clutching at his broken hand with the other.

The saleswoman was also shocked. She looked at Shen Chi, his face cold as death, emanating a chilling aura.

All the commotion attracted a crowd, but with a single glance from Shen Chi, everyone quickly dispersed.

Just then, the manager of the gold store arrived.

He approached with a cheery cluelessness, only to freeze when he saw his friend on the floor.

“What happened? What’s going on?”

“Wang Manager, my husband was injured on your turf, you need to give us an explanation. This man is too arrogant, he actually hit my husband! Call the police!”

“Sister-in-law, hurry and take big brother to the hospital, what are you waiting for?” The manager was quick to react, “Leave the rest to me!”

“Okay, okay…” The woman finally snapped out of it, helping her man up.

Shen Chi, with a cold expression, took out a card from his wallet and slapped it down on the counter, “Charge it.”

“Sir, you assaulted someone, you’re going to need to explain yourself,” the manager said, blocking Shen Chi’s way.

“Dare touch my woman, and you’re asking for it,” Shen Chi said coolly.

Just now, if Xu Chaomu had been pushed to the ground, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

She was carrying a two-month-old baby in her belly.

“You have to be responsible, this is…”

“Enough with the nonsense. Problem? If there is, have your chairman come find me! President Shen Chi of Shen Group!”

Shen Chi slammed his hand down on the counter, his face livid with rage, his voice icy cold.

No one was permitted to bully Xu Chaomu, not an action, not a look!

The manager was stunned upon hearing Shen Chi’s name, blinking several times before recognizing him. Yes, it was Shen Chi!

He was so scared he nearly collapsed on the spot; provoking Shen Chi was truly biting off more than he could chew.

“You, you, Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen, please proceed…” The manager gestured for him to go ahead, not daring to utter another word.

The saleswoman was also stunned. What was going on?

But hearing the manager speak, she quickly took out the card machine, “Your total is eighty-eight thousand.”

The manager hastily scolded the saleswoman, “What eighty-eight thousand? With Mr. Shen here, give a discount of ten percent. I will report to the chairman.”

“No need, I’m not that familiar with your chairman.”

Shen Chi extended his long hand, with his index and middle finger pinching the bank card, and handed it to the sales associate, who nodded and accepted it.

The manager said a lot more, but Shen Chi did not respond.

Xu Chaomu, still hiding in Shen Chi’s embrace, was not willing to come out.

Only after the card was processed, and the saleswoman packed the longevity lock did Shen Chi look down and say, “Mumu, come out, let’s go buy a handbag.”

Xu Chaomu covering her eyes, looked up at Shen Chi through her fingers, “Brother-in-law, you’re too violent…”

“Hmm? Still calling me brother-in-law?”

Shen Chi adored her in this state, like a little kitten, making him want to hold her in his arms again.

“Nah, brother-in-law rolls off the tongue nicely.”

Shen Chi dangled the bag containing the longevity lock in front of her, “Call me husband, or I won’t give it to you.”

“If you don’t give it to me, you’re making trouble with my baby. It’s for him.”

“Then what do you plan for this child to call me?”

“Brother-in-law, my child should of course call you uncle.”

“Xu Chaomu, are you lawless now? One moment calling me ‘fourth uncle,’ another ‘uncle,’ I won’t allow it.”

“My baby, I’ll let him call me whatever I want.”

“Call me ‘husband’ once, and I won’t hold it against you, or else…” Shen Chi pretended to look stern, threatening her.
