“Talking as if you’re not foolish yourself,” Shen Chi said indifferently.

“…” Xu Chaomu, covered in metaphorical black lines on his head, was at a loss for words.

“Does it still hurt?” Shen Chi’s large hand gently caressed her forehead, careful not to use too much force, yet very attentive.

Xu Chaomu indicated that it actually stopped hurting a long time ago, but it was rare to be able to fool Shen Chi.

At this moment, Shen Chi was much gentler, the harshness in his gaze completely faded, replaced with care and concern.

After touching her a few times, Shen Chi found out the girl was pretending.

He helplessly curved his lips into a slight smile, but continued to stroke her forehead and hair.

“Fourth Brother, I suddenly realized you’re quite nice to me,” Xu Chaomu said with a smile.

Alright, she was just that forgetful; a little kindness from Shen Chi and she would immediately forget all the unpleasantness.

Her large, curved eyes looked at Shen Chi, her long eyelashes fluttering lightly, filled with countless girlish dreams.

“You’re my sister, and it’s only right for me to be good to you,” he responded.

“Sister! Who’s your sister!” Xu Chaomu was infuriated.

She swatted away his hand, glaring directly at him with wide eyes, and due to

her agitation, her chest heaved.

Locked in a gaze, Shen Chi appeared exceptionally indifferent.

“Even though you’re not my biological sister, I will treat you as if you were,” he stated in a calm tone that weighed heavily on Xu Chaomu’s heart. Like a morning bell and evening drum, the world spinning, she felt as if her entire world had collapsed.

“Shen Chi, say it again!” Xu Chaomu couldn’t believe her ears.

“Sit tight, I’m driving now,” Shen Chi didn’t repeat his statement, simply casting an indifferent glance at her.

He didn’t look at her anymore, his gaze fixated outside the window, deep and distant, ready to start the car at any moment.

In Shen Chi’s eyes, Xu Chaomu saw impatience, though she wasn’t sure if she was seeing it wrong.

Even though she had always thought that he never had any romantic feelings for her, hearing him say such words still felt like her heart was being sliced by a knife multiple times.

His kindness towards her was merely because he treated her like a sister.

Yes, what brother wouldn’t be nice to his sister?

She should have given up on any thoughts regarding him long ago, just like the words he said today.

“Everything should follow rules. If she knows that the man is married and still persists, then she can’t be considered pitiable,” he said.

He had warned her several times today, both explicitly and implicitly.

Could she be any less perceptive?

Shen Chi started the car, and without Xu Chaomu’s chattering, the vehicle was silent and calm.

Xu Chaomu felt like crying.

But she didn’t want to cry in front of him.

The car drove past the hospital, through the bustling commercial district, passing several scenic spots.

As they neared a park, Shen Chi slowed down.

“Do you want to go to the park?” he asked, his voice hoarse as he focused on the road ahead.

“No need,” Xu Chaomu replied indifferently, not even lifting her head. Her heart was congested.

“Oh,” Shen Chi said nothing more, pressing on the accelerator to continue forward.

Along the way, Shen Chi answered a phone call.

“Yes, I know.” “No more problems.” “I’m heading there now.”

He didn’t say much before the call ended; Xu Chaomu vaguely heard Zhou Ran’s voice on the line.

For some reason, now when she thought of Zhou Ran, she felt a chill throughout her body.

Once, late at night, she overheard Zhou Ran discussing photographs with Uncle Shen and mentioning her mother’s name, which she still hadn’t figured out.

On top of that, Zhou Ran had warned her to leave the Shen Family sooner rather than later. Though not aggressive, the attitude wasn’t pleasant either.

In her eyes, Zhou Ran went from being an ethereal fairy to a cold, heartless woman.

However, no matter what, it was she who brought her into the Shen Family.

It was she who allowed her to meet Shen Chi.

After ending the call, Shen Chi glanced at Xu Chaomu.

He seemed to sigh, “I’ve got something to take care of.”

“Oh, I’ll call a cab,” Xu Chaomu said with an indifferent look, obediently reaching for the car door.

Unfortunately, the door wouldn’t open, and as she turned her head, she met Shen Chi’s gaze head-on.

His eyes were unfathomably deep, and his face was expressionless. Xu Chaomu admitted to herself that she couldn’t understand him, not even after eight years.

A furrow formed between Shen Chi’s brows, his thin lips pursed slightly, yet he remained silent.

Xu Chaomu pressed the button herself; the door opened, and she stepped out of the car.

“Be careful out there,” Shen Chi didn’t stop her, only offering a word of caution.

Xu Chaomu, indifferent, kept walking without looking back. This was a lively commercial district, of course, nothing would happen.

Shen Chi watched Xu Chaomu get into a taxi before turning around and driving off in another direction.

His mother had come to C City to see him.

In the understated yet elegant coffee shop, the piano tune “Snowdreams” flowed softly, playing in the background. Outside the door of the coffee shop hung European retro-style candlestick chandeliers, while the interior was adorned with lotus-shaped vintage copper lamps.

Even in daylight, the lights are on, casting a soft glow that adds limitless charm to the coffee shop.

There weren’t many customers, and Shen Chi knew that this place wasn’t where just anyone could afford to indulge.

“Good day, sir.”

Upon entering the coffee shop, after a brief search, he found his mother, Zhou Ran, sitting beside a mahogany table to the south.

The moment he walked in, he drew the attention of everyone in the coffee shop, and even the strictly disciplined staff couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.

“That man is really handsome!”

“Isn’t he just? To come to our place, he must be quite wealthy.”

“A true tall, rich, and handsome—plus he’s young.” “He does seem too aloof, though, not easy to approach.”

“What more do you want? Dream on…”

A few staff members whispered to each other while grinding coffee beans and preparing desserts.

Shen Chi strode across the room with his long legs, heading straight for his mother’s location, who had already ordered his favorite coffee for him.

He pulled out a chair, took off his suit jacket, and hung it over the backrest, emitting an air of regal elegance in his every movement.

“Achi, it’s been a while,” Zhou Ran said with a slight smile.

She looked beautiful today, wearing a white dress, with her makeup exquisitely done, her hair gathered into a bun on her head. She appeared no more than a thirtyish-year-old matron, still full of charm.

If Shen Chi seemed more like a cold and commanding sovereign, then she, on the other hand, seemed more like a well-bred young lady, elegant and dignified.

“Yes,” Shen Chi uttered only one word in his laconic reply.

Zhou Ran understood Shen Chi’s character, so without further ado, she pointed to a plate on the table, “The pastries and coffee here are excellent. Try them, and we can chat at leisure.”

Shen Chi stirred his coffee, which was perfectly flavored.

“I heard Shen Cexian sent you to A City to sign a contract, but you didn’t go?”

“Others might not know, but you surely do. I may not have gone, but that doesn’t mean the contract wasn’t signed, ” he replied.

“I knew you wouldn’t let me down,” Zhou Ran smiled lightly, “Did it go smoothly?”

“Yes.”

“That’s good. Bai Man called me a few days ago complaining about not being able to attend the press conference; she was quite upset.”

“I’ll make it up to her,” Shen Chi said with a deep voice and profound gaze..
