Old Cheng hurriedly stepped on the brakes and turned the steering wheel, even though he didn’t know where Shen Chi wanted to go.

Xu Chaomu was about to bury her head into the seat, her toothache causing her to twitch in pain.

When Old Cheng turned onto the left street, he finally slowed the car down and asked, “President Shen, where are we going?”

Shen Chi glanced at Xu Chaomu in front of him and said indifferently, “To the hospital.”

Old Cheng suddenly understood. He looked at Xu Chaomu and, with tacit understanding, drove the car toward the hospital ahead.

With a swoosh, Xu Chaomu’s face turned bright red. Was she discovered by Shen Chi?

When their car was about to arrive at the hospital entrance, Li Beiting’s car blocked the path of their Hummer.

Old Cheng quickly braked and Xu Chaomu bounced twice heavily against the seat. Why did Li Beiting drive so aggressively?

Old Cheng rolled down the window, and rainwater splashed in from outside. In the next second, Li Beiting got out of his car, his eyes fixed on Xu Chaomu.

Xu Chaomu felt somewhat scared being stared at like that; Li Beiting didn’t seem quite right tonight.

What did that look mean?

“Shen Chi, get out. I have something to say to you!” Li Beiting shouted.

Shen Chi was expressionless, calmly unfolding his long legs, “You don’t need to say it, I already know.”

“You don’t know shit. Get out here! You owe me an explanation today!” Li Beiting cursed outright, his whole being far from composed, his eyes flashing with malice and anger.

Xu Chaomu was somewhat confused about the situation. What were the grievances between these two?

Weren’t they friends since childhood?

Could it be that Li Beiting secretly longed for Shen Chi?

Yo, yo, yo, Xu Chaomu was struck by her own thought; she must be a genius, it had to be that way.

Seeing Li Beiting’s expression, looking like someone who had held it in for a long time and was about to erupt, she was very curious to see what Shen Chi would do when faced with Li Beiting.

Xu Chaomu, who loved a good spectacle, suddenly forgot about her toothache. Shen Chi sent an icy look over, “Li Beiting, move aside!”

“Don’t lose your mind, Shen Chi; you’d better see clearly what it is you want! And don’t blame me for speaking bluntly in front of this girl—she’s just an orphan picked up from the orphanage. The Shen family has raised her for eight years, and even if she doesn’t leave, she should know when to come and go.

You call her shameless for sticking to you, you…”

“Li Beiting, get the fuck out!”

Before Li Beiting could finish, Shen Chi forcefully pushed open the car door, stepped out into the rain, grabbed Li Beiting by the collar, and shoved him down against the red car.

In the rain, Xu Chaomu saw Shen Chi’s eyes turning red, like a lion enraged, brewing a tempest!

He was holding onto Li Beiting’s collar, a punch nearly landing!

“Li Beiting, I’m warning you. If you dare say that kind of thing again, don’t blame me tor not seeing you as a brother!” Shen Chi pronounced each word as if they were the sharp edge of a blade.

“Shen Chi, to think I considered you a brother, and this is how you treat me?

The 5:30 flight, you decide what to do!”

Li Beiting forcefully grabbed Shen Chi’s hand, shoving it off his collar. With a face full of resentment, Li Beiting got into his Maserati, slammed the door with a bang, and sped off!

In the rain, Shen Chi clenched his fists tightly.

The rain falling from the sky soaked his face and his shirt. He stood like a cold statue, motionless, yet emitting a frigid chill.

Clearly stunned, Old Cheng wondered why President Shen would get into a fight with President Li—they were supposed to be the best of friends. Xu Chaomu’s heart had nearly stopped, and her mind went blank.

Li Beiting… what did he say?

“Even if she doesn’t leave, she should know her place. You say she has no shame, sticking to you…”

She once considered Li Beiting a friend, but it turned out that in Li Beiting’s eyes, she was nothing but a shameless girl who clung to Shen Chi.

In the Shen family, Shen Chi doted on her so much, she almost thought she was a part of the Shen family.

It turned out, no one really saw her as part of the Shen family. The closest, Aunt Zhou did, and now, Li Beiting as well.

Her surname was Xu, not Shen.

Xu Chaomu’s head slowly drooped, her eyes clouding with a layer of mist, her face shrouded in loss and loneliness.

It felt as though there were blades churning in her chest, causing dull pains.

Who says the young do not know the taste of worry?

Minutes later, Shen Chi got into the car. He glanced at Xu Chaomu, who had buried her head by the window, not knowing what she was thinking about.

“Drive.” Shen Chi said faintly.

“Alright!” Old Cheng responded and started up the car again towards the nearest hospital.

Though it was nighttime, there were still quite a few cars parked at the hospital entrance; electronic screens and streetlights illuminated brightly, and people were still moving around occasionally.

There was water on the road, and the rain continued to fall. When Old Cheng stopped the car, Xu Chaomu’s head was still against the window, not looking up or speaking.

Old Cheng had rarely seen Xu Chaomu like this, quiet like a forsaken child, her surroundings permeated with loneliness.

Old Cheng said nothing, took out an umbrella, and got out to open the door for Shen Chi.

After Shen Chi got out, he stood by the passenger door, then opened it and lifted her out.

His grip was still domineering; once he held her, he wouldn’t let go.

Xu Chaomu showed no particular expression. Previously, she would be happy if Shen Chi held her, but now, her heart didn’t even flutter with the feeling of

“thump thump.”

“Hold onto me.”

Shen Chi furrowed his brows; she wouldn’t even touch him, not fearing to fall.

As Xu Chaomu raised her eyelids, she met his dark eyes. She symbolically hooked her arm around his neck, then lowered her head again.

Right now, she was exactly as Li Beiting described, shamelessly clinging to Shen Chi.

Shen Chi carried her all the way to the dentist’s office in the hospital building, his steps steady, holding her until they reached the dental clinic.

There was a doctor on duty in the clinic. Since it was nighttime, the hospital was empty, and all that could be heard in the corridor was Shen Chi’s footsteps.

Some departments were unstaffed and the lights were off, leaving them dark. The hospital was already a bit creepy, and Xu Chaomu was especially frightened to come here.

It was fine during the day, with many people around, but now it was night, and she felt as if she could hear the wails of patients.

Frightened, she buried her head into Shen Chi’s chest. She swore it wasn’t intentional; she was scared.

Upon entering the clinic, he placed her on the bed and told the on-duty doctor, “Take a look at her teeth and see what’s wrong.”

“Okay,” the doctor put on a mask and gloves, then approached.

With every step the doctor took closer, Xu Chaomu’s heart pounded more violently!

When the doctor held the cold forceps, Xu Chaomu was so frightened she trembled.

“I don’t want to be seen! I’m fine! My tooth doesn’t hurt anymore!” Her voice trembled as she sat up, ready to run.

Shen Chi was quick to respond, firmly holding her down and speaking with stern authority, “Lie down!”
