Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199: You Are Pregnant

Shen Chi hurriedly threw down what he was holding and ran over!

“Mumu!” he called out anxiously, “What’s wrong?”

Xu Chaomu was in discomfort, leaning over the sink unable to speak, only feeling the room spin, utterly weak and powerless.

Shen Chi grabbed her hand, which was burning hot, and then touched her forehead, still very hot.

Xu Chaomu had no strength to resist, letting Shen Chi hold her hand while she turned on the tap and kept throwing up.

“I really don’t know how you take care of yourself, to be burning up like this,” Shen Chi said helplessly. “Have you taken any medicine?”

Xu Chaomu pursed her lips, lacking the energy to argue with him, she remained silent.

“I haven’t visited for a few days and you have become like this. If you weren’t burning up, I would have thought you were pregnant,” Shen Chi commented dryly.

“Get lost!” Xu Chaomu yelled at him, unable to help but roll her eyes.

“If you want me to leave, you need the strength to kick me out.”

Saying this, Shen Chi wrapped his arms around her from behind, keeping her still. He guided her hands to the sink, washing them for her, then wiped her face with a towel.

Without the strength to resist, Xu Chaomu could only let him manipulate her like a rag doll.

“Look at yourself in the mirror, so haggard,” Shen Chi chastised. “Hair all messy.”

He sighed helplessly, his tone like he was talking to his own daughter.

After washing her face, he combed her hair.

He hadn’t done these things for anyone else, but he was surprisingly adept at it, having bathed her and blow-dried her hair in the past.

Yet, compared to combing her hair, he would rather bathe her.

“Have you taken your medicine? When did you start feeling unwell?” Shen Chi frowned and asked.

Her complexion was truly awful, her lips were pale and bloodless, her eye sockets sunken in, very haggard.

Xu Chaomu had no energy to speak with him, silently lowering her head.

“All you do is be stubborn with me,” Shen Chi said, his tone both helpless and doting. “Come home with me, I’ll take care of you.”

“If you hadn’t driven Yuan Jing away, I wouldn’t be left without anyone to take care of me,” Xu Chaomu retorted.

“Hm? Still thinking about that lad? What, is he still in touch with you?” Shen Chi narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint flashing through them.

“…” Xu Chaomu fell silent, feeling she had said too much and, of course, she no longer had the energy to speak.

“I’ll take you to the hospital, you better behave, otherwise you know I am a brute and wouldn’t mind taking advantage,” Shen Chi warned her.

“…”

After combing her hair, Shen Chi picked out a set of clothes from the wardrobe.

However, Xu Chaomu firmly refused to let him help change her, retreating to a corner of the bathroom and watching him warily.

Shen Chi felt utterly helpless. Was he really such a beast?

“I saw it all six years ago, there’s nothing to hide,” Shen Chi scoffed. “So thin, nothing appealing to see.”

“Then get out!” Xu Chaomu yelled.

“…” Shen Chi twitched his mouth.

“Here, put on the clothes yourself,” Shen Chi said helplessly.

If Xu Chaomu hadn’t still looked like this, he would have doubted she was the same person. Before, she would cling to him at every opportunity, not even blushing when stripping off his clothes, and now she was actually shy.

Shen Chi went to check on Xiaobao, who was sitting in his crib playing by himself, not fussing at all.

“Xiaobao, do you miss Daddy?” Shen Chi smiled as he pinched his cheek.

“Miss…” Xiaobao mumbled.

Shen Chi paused, overwhelmed by immense joy after a moment. The little guy was actually talking!

Shen Chi’s excitement was beyond words, he just hugged Xiaobao and gave him a few big kisses.

Xiaobao giggled and reached out to grab Shen Chi’s collar.

“Xiaobao, Mommy is sick, so Daddy is going to take Mommy to the hospital later. You need to be good and stay at home alone, hear me?” Shen Chi was still a bit worried, but he would be back soon.

The little guy looked at Shen Chi, not understanding.

Taking advantage of this moment, Shen Chi played with Xiaobao for a while.

He asked, “Xiaobao, do you like having a little sister?”

Xiaobao didn’t understand and didn’t say anything.

“Tell Daddy, you like it.” Shen Chi touched his cheek.

Xiaobao still didn’t understand. What was the handsome uncle saying?

Shen Chi took out a small cake from behind and coaxed him, “Say you like it.”

“I like it,” Xiaobao immediately said.

“Yeah, very smart.” Shen Chi smiled, “Do you like having a little sister?”

“I like…” Xiaobao, with his strong learning ability, immediately said.

“Good boy!” Shen Chi was very happy and praised him!

Then, Shen Chi taught him to say many words, this guy was really smart and learned quickly. Shen Chi didn’t teach anything new, just kept encouraging Xiaobao to say “Baby wants a little sister.”

It didn’t take many tries before Xiaobao was saying it fluently.

Soon, Xu Chaomu came out. Seeing Xiaobao so close to Shen Chi made her upset.

Why did he have to stick to Shen Chi?

“Xiaobao, play by yourself, Mommy is going to the hospital.” Xu Chaomu took Xiaobao from Shen Chi’s arms and put him in the crib.

“Gr…”It seemed like Xiaobao responded.

“Xiaobao, be good, Daddy brought you a gift, I’ll give it to you later.” Shen Chi pinched his cheek again.

Saying this, he hugged Xu Chaomu’s waist and whispered, “Are you feeling very uncomfortable? Was it because the weather was cold last night and you kicked off the covers while sleeping?”

Xu Chaomu found it awkward and did not want him to hold her.

But Shen Chi was not listening to her, he tightened his grip around her waist, not letting her move.

“Xiaobao is better behaved than you are, why can’t you listen?” Shen Chi frowned and reprimanded, “If you don’t take care of yourself, I’m dragging you back home.”

“You…”

“Don’t get agitated, I’m just saying.” Shen Chi cut her off, seeing that she was about to get angry again.

Xu Chaomu pursed her lips and didn’t speak.

Following him out the door, she had a severe headache and was unsteady on her feet, so Shen Chi simply carried her down the stairs.

Fortunately, the car was parked just downstairs, and not too many people saw.

He couldn’t remember the last time he had carried her, and she was much lighter than before.

Xu Chaomu was feeble, and after Shen Chi placed her in the passenger seat, she leaned her head back and closed her eyes.

“In a few days it will get even colder, how can I be at ease with you like this.” Shen Chi sighed, “There have been a lot of issues at the company recently, and I haven’t visited you for a long time. You don’t know how much I miss you.”

Spring went and autumn came, countless tormented nights without her, how could she know how much he missed her?

Xu Chaomu closed her eyes and said faintly, “Whether you come or not, I’ve long been used to it.”

Shen Chi felt a pang in his heart and shook his head, “But I’m not used to it.”

“That’s just because you haven’t tried to get used to it.”

“I can’t escape, and neither can you. By the way, this scarf–I really like it.” Shen Chi hooked up a smile and handed the scarf to her.
