If You Could Hear My Heart

Chapter 90: Chapter 090 Shen Chi will kill her

Translator: 549690339

“Ah!” The bottle struck Bai Man right in the chest, and she clutched the area, furrowing her brows tightly!

The bottle fell to the ground with a “clang,” sending a crisp sound echoing.

“Miss Bail” “Miss Bai!” “Miss Bai, are you okay?”

Everyone rushed toward Bai Man, causing even more chaos in the living room.

Xu Chaomu hadn’t expected to hit Bai Man, and she clung to the edge of the table, her lips still trembling.

They had been the ones to bully her first.

But she was still scared inside, she had made a big scene today, not only smashing a priceless treasure of the Shen Family but also injuring Bai Man.

Shen Chi was going to kill her when he got back!

She stood still where she was, feeling a bit panicked inside.

The agent named Xiaofeng shot Xu Chaomu a sharp glance, “Miss Xu, I think you’d better pack your things and leave the Shen Family as soon as possible!” After dropping that comment, she went to support Bai Man.

Xu Chaomu was stunned for quite a while before she slowly crouched down and began picking up her diaries from the floor one by one.

Tears swirled in her eyes, but she stubbornly did not let them fall.

On what basis did they accuse her of stealing the necklace, enter her room, rummage through her things, pry open her lock, and peek at her diary?

She had only tried to defend herself.

Everyone was bullying her…

In the spacious living room of the Shen family, with so many people around, not a single one spoke up for her…

Soon, the remaining few servants began to make snide comments.

“This Miss Xu sure has some nerve, daring to hit even Miss Bai. She really sees herself as the young lady of the Shen Family.”

“Exactly, she’s definitely in for it now. Whoever dares to mess with Young

Master Four never ends up well, and now she’s clashed with Young Master

Four’s fiancée, of course it’s a big deal.”

“Right, everyone says Young Master Four treasures Miss Bai; he feels distressed for a long time even when she catches a cold. Now that Miss Bai has been hit, it’s unimaginable.”

“Hey, look at this antique vase, it’s valuable too and now that’s broken as well, she’s sure to face even greater punishment!”

“Yeah, the vase is broken, the Second Miss and Miss Bai are both hurt, how can Miss Xu be so savage?”

“What do you expect from someone brought up in an orphanage? Of course, she’s wild. And still, she fancies Young Master Four…”

“Indeed, I even saw what she wrote in the diary, it seems like she’s liked Young

Master Four for a long time…”

“Young Master Four and Miss Bai are the perfect match, she’s truly overestimating herself.”

Xu Chaomu heard the crowd’s sneers and felt exhausted for the first time.

All her carefree eighteen years, even with the occasional gossip, she had ignored them all. She was a street ruffian, after all; why would she care about such words?

But now, those words cut like knives, stabbing her right in the heart. She crouched on the floor, gathering up her diaries; she didn’t want to stay there anymore.

The butler Ling, realizing the situation was getting out of control, hurriedly called Shen Chi.

She said, “Miss Bai has been wronged at the Shen Family…”

Shen Chi didn’t say much, just replied indifferently, “I am busy; we’ll talk when I get back.”

Having said that, Shen Chi was ready to hang up, but Butler Ling quickly added, “It’s a dispute with Miss Xu.”

“What?” Shen Chi’s voice turned cold abruptly.

“The commotion is quite big,” said Butler Ling.

“Understood, I’ll be back immediately,” stated Shen Chi decisively.

After being hung up on, Butler Ling was stunned for a while; hadn’t Shi Chi just said he was busy? Why did he suddenly change his tune to returning at once…

Since the old master, Shen Cexian, hadn’t been in great health, Shen Chi had effectively taken over the running of the Shen Family, and his word was law.

Butler Ling didn’t know where Shen Chi was at the moment, but it was certain that he would soon return to the Shen Family mansion!

The living room was still a mess, and Bai Man was supported to a sofa, her hand over her heart, her complexion ashen.

Xu Chaomu looked up at Bai Man, who even in distress, managed to maintain her elegant demeanor without uttering a word.

She sat on the sofa dressed in a blue cheongsam, looking very much like a renowned lady of the Republic era, which made Xu Chaomu, in comparison, seem like a wild child.

Xu Chaomu knew she was in trouble, what now, should she really hide?

Where would she go?

What if Shen Chi came back, how would he hit her?

In the face? That’s painful, and it would ruin her looks…

No, she had to get out of there and avoid the trouble. Shen Chi was terrifying when angry…

If he found out she had accidentally hurt his beloved, he’d beat her to a cripple without a doubt.

Just as Xu Chaomu was about to leave with a stack of diaries, Bai Man’s agent made a phone call to Shen Chi.

“Yes, President Shen, we’ve called the family doctor, and they should be here soon. Miss Bail s injury is quite serious.”

“That’s right, it was Miss Xu who hit Miss Bai directly with the bottle and also hurt the Second Miss.”

“You must stand up for Miss Bai.”

“With your word, I am at ease. Miss Bai and I will wait at home for you, please come back soon to see Miss Bai.”

After a few sentences, the agent hung up the phone.

She turned to comfort Bai Man, “Miss Bai, it’s alright now, I’ve spoken to President Shen, he’ll be home soon. He said he will ensure justice for us, definitely punishing the evildoer.”

“For such a trivial matter, why did you… bother him… he’s very busy.” Bai Man wrinkled her brows, her voice lacking strength.

“Only President Shen can deliver justice for us. Besides, Miss Bai, no matter how busy he is, whenever it concerns you, he will surely come right away,” said the agent.

Xu Chaomu had only one thought, Shen Chi was coming back.

No, she had to get out of there quickly.

If Shen Chi caught her, she would be done for.

Where would she slip off to? Yu Weiwei’s home? Li Beiting’s house? Or should she just find a park or something to hide?

There was no time to lose; she had to make a run for it!

With her diaries in hand, she was about to head upstairs, even if she was to flee, she needed to grab some supplies first.

“Really planning to leave the Shen Family?” Liu Rumei suddenly approached, blocking Xu Chaomu’s way upstairs.

Xu Chaomu gave her a look that said, “what’s it to you?” and didn’t even glance her way.

“President Shen is coming back. Miss Xu, it would be best for you not to leave the Shen Family. Of course, if you feel guilty, you’re free to go. We won’t stop you,” said Bai Man’s agent.

Bai Man continued to hold her chest silently, but she didn’t prevent her agent from speaking.

Bai Man has always been very smart, just like how she would never personally search Xu Chaomu’s room herself.

“You contradict yourself, you know.” Xu Chaomu chuckled sarcastically, “You just told me to leave, and now you want me to stay. You’re bipolar!”

If she really listened to them, that would be the true madness!

There was no time to waste arguing with them; she had to escape quickly.

“Xiaofeng, stop it, she’s just a child. We don’t need to argue with a child. Let her go. It’s fine, my health is not an issue, I’ll recover after some rest,” Bai Man finally spoke, her voice sounding weak.
