Xu Chaomu eyed Shen Shihan without blinking for a good while, and before she knew it, she was smiling.
“What are you grinning about?” Shen Shihan opened the car door, and he was smiling too.
“I’m laughing because I have a handsome, suave brother who makes flowers bloom at his presence!” Xu Chaomu’s lips sweetened the words.
After a good sleep, she really could forget a lot of things, and her mood became much better in an instant.
Add to that the good weather today and the company of a handsome guy, Xu Chaomu was very pleased.
Shen Shihan was not as inaccessible as Shen Chi, and he was quite accommodating to all kinds of requests from Xu Chaomu.
“You’re the sweet talker. Come on, get out. Do you want me to carry you down?” Shen Shihan looked at her.
Xu Chaomu shook her head, her smile sly: “I’ll jump down on my own!”
No sooner had the words left her mouth than she used the car to hop down to the ground like a little rabbit. The breeze felt refreshingly crisp.
After locking the car, Shen Shihan took a backpack and started climbing Tianju Mountain from the entrance with Xu Chaomu.
The mountain was tall, piercing the clouds, majestic and lush with greenery. There were quite a few tourists today, but Shen Shihan had already found a less crowded path.
“Put on the hat, or you’ll turn into a little charcoal by evening,” Shen Shihan joked as he placed a little hat on Xu Chaomu’s head.
Xu Chaomu smiled foolishly and moved next to Shen Shihan. Pointing at several women who kept looking back at them, she said to him, “Brother, so many beauties are looking back at us. I feel so honored standing next to you! Brother, do you want to go flirt with them?”
“Stop it, come on, you climb in front, I’ll follow behind. Be careful.”
“Oh! Alright!”
Xu Chaomu, hands on the mountain wall and steps on the stony path, climbed up step by step. Now, she didn’t feel tired at all, her feet as swift as the wind, rapidly ascending.
There were many scenic spots on the mountain, and she wanted to take pictures with each one!
Shen Chi didn’t wake up until after three in the afternoon, his head throbbed immensely. By then, Bai Man had gone downstairs to make him some refreshments. He simply lay in bed with his eyes closed.
It wasn’t long before Bai Man arrived with the refreshments.
She made cupcakes, and her skills had improved a lot. When she brought them in, the whole room was filled with a rich fragrance.
“Feeling better? Are you still uncomfortable?” Bai Man sat down beside Shen Chi’s bed.
“It’s nothing, I’ve been drunk like this before,” Shen Chi’s tone was nonchalant. “Eat something, I made them myself. Why did you drink so much last night?”
“It’s nothing.”
Shen Chi got up, grabbed a jacket from his closet, and draped it over himself. Looking up, he realized it was already afternoon.
“Where are you going? At least eat a little, I worked hard on these,” Bai Man urged, bringing the cupcakes to him.
Though Bai Man was used to Shen Chi’s ways, she felt a twinge of discomfort in her heart.
“Leave it,” Shen Chi said curtly before heading straight out of the room.
“Hey, Shen Chi!” Bai Man called after him, but it was to no avail; the man didn’t look back.
After descending the stairs, Shen Chi found the butler, Mr. Ling, in the garden.
Mr. Ling was tending to the flowers and quickly bowed respectfully when he saw Shen Chi, “Fourth Master.”
“Where’s Xu Chaomu?” Shen Chi asked in a deep voice.
“Miss Xu said she went mountain climbing.”
“Climbing? With who?”
“Miss Xu didn’t say, but I saw her leave with Third Master Shen.”
“When?”
“Just after seven this morning.”
“Does she know I’m home?”
“She… she should know,” Mr. Ling dared not say more.
Annoyance flickered across Shen Chi’s face; his jaw clenched tight, his strides purposeful as he headed to the garage. Before long, he called Shen Shihan.
“Is Xu Chaomu with you?” Shen Chi demanded coldly.
As it happened, Shen Shihan and Xu Chaomu had just climbed to the mountain peak. Xu Chaomu, brimming with joy, was snapping photos of the scenery with Shen Shihan’s camera.
The view here was so beautiful, and with the sunset approaching, wouldn’t it be even more magnificent?
“Yes,” Shen Shihan glanced at Xu Chaomu beside him.
“Where?”
Shen Chi always spoke succinctly and assertively, always dominating in his tone.
He had decided last night to give Xu Chaomu the cold shoulder for a few days, but the first to lose patience was him. To outsiders, he might seem like Mount Tai standing unshaken, but many, many times, because of Xu Chaomu, his composure changed, his mind was disturbed.
But she…
When drunk, she went merrily mountain climbing.
“That’s none of your concern,” Shen Shihan said indifferently.
“Put her on the phone.”
“Sure.” Shen Shihan’s tone was casual as he reached out to pass the phone to Xu Chaomu.
He nudged Xu Chaomu’s arm, “Chaomu, it’s your fourth brother calling.”
“I’m not answering,” Xu Chaomu stated decisively, her mood suddenly half spoiled.
“If you don’t answer, he’ll be unhappy,” Shen Shihan said.
“If I do, I’ll be unhappy. Brother, I don’t want to see him. Please let me enjoy myself here, don’t answer his calls,” Xu Chaomu pouted.
“Alright then.” Shen Shihan agreed with Xu Chaomu and then spoke to Shen Chi on the other end, “Shen Chi, she doesn’t want to see you.”
Shen Chi’s pupils constricted, his gaze fierce as he stared ahead, as if he could bore two holes through the air itself!
“Ungrateful wretch.” Annoyed, Shen Chi spat out coldly and hung up the phone.
His hands rested on the steering wheel, not sure where to drive the car. Putting away the phone, Xu Chaomu asked indifferently, “He hung up?” “Yeah. Did you have a fight with your fourth brother?”
“Who dares to quarrel with him? I’m just upset and don’t want to see him, that’s all. Brother, I really detest him now, he’s too controlling. You saw, the moment I come out for a hike, his call comes through,” Xu Chaomu complained.
“He’s concerned about you.”
“I don’t appreciate it,” Xu Chaomu continued, “Let’s not talk about these upsetting things. Brother, will you stay with me on the mountaintop to watch the sunset, and then we can take lots and lots of photos?”
“Sure, or how about I take you to spend the night on the mountain? There will be a bonfire dance party here in the evening.” “Really? Brother, can you dance? Will you teach me?”
“Aren’t you tired?”
“Not tired!” Xu Chaomu grinned wide, revealing a row of small white teeth.
Shen Shihan watched her, smiling.
In the end, Shen Chi couldn’t help himself and had Secretary Xiao MO look up the phone’s location.
Shen Shihan and Xu Chaomu were on Tianju Mountain.
Soon, Shen Chi drove quickly toward Tianju Mountain. The drive was gloomy, his face somber throughout.
The car sped and in just an hour and a half reached Tianju Mountain. By the time he arrived at the mountaintop, the day was already drawing to a close. The open area was encircled with people after people.
The sounds of signing and dancing blended with laughter and chatter.
He immediately spotted Xu Chaomu and Shen Shihan.
Xu Chaomu leaned on Shen Shihan’s shoulder, sitting on the ground, watching the dance. She was laughing joyously, utterly carefree as she clapped her hands from time to time.
He didn’t know where Shen Shihan had found a floral wreath for her, which sat on her head, a bit childish but very cute..
