If You Could Hear My Heart

“Be good, go to sleep, mommy will find a way to take you home.”

The First Hospital.

When Shen Chi arrived, Jian Sisi was clutching the blanket and hiding on the hospital bed, looking at everyone in front of her with a wary face.

“If you abort this child, I’ll go to the media tomorrow!”

“Jian Sisi, don’t forget, it was President Shen who kept you. Without him, you’d still be drowning in a sea of debts! Don’t be an ingrate,” Xiao Mo said coldly.

“Then you also have no right to abort my child. He’s my child, a little life!”

“Jian Sisi, we know what you’re scheming. Don’t think we’re clueless!”

“What am I scheming? All I want is for the child to be born healthy. Once he’s born, I’ll take him away from C City and go back to my hometown.”

“Really? Who would believe that you’d return to your hometown carrying the child of the president of Shen Group?”

Scorn was written all over Xiao Mo’s face, and his eyes were filled with indifference.

“Why won’t you believe me? I just want this child, nothing else! Can you understand a mother’s feelings?”

“You don’t want the position of Mrs. President, either?”

“Of course not. I won’t disrupt President Shen’s life. I’ll take this child and flee far away.”

Jian Sisi’s emotions were a bit stirred, and she confronted Xiao Mo while sitting on the bed.

Her slender form was wrapped in an oversized hospital gown, and her shoulders trembled.

Xiao Mo frowned:”Jian Sisi, don’t think President Shen wouldn’t dare to do something to you. Now, if you obediently go with me to the operating room, there’s still room for negotiation.”

“That’s impossible, don’t force me!”

Just then, Shen Chi kicked open the door of the ward, his face an ashen hue, his eyes filled with coldness and icy disdain.

“Jian Sisi, don’t be ungrateful!” Shen Chi said coldly.

“Presi… President Shen…”

Jian Sisi widened her eyes in fear, retreating until her back was almost against the bed.

Her hands were trembling as she grasped the blanket. She didn’t expect Shen Chi to come so quickly.

“Here’s a check for ten million. Is that enough?!”

Shen Chi strode to her bed and threw a check onto the sheets.

Jian Sisi shook her head, her eyes brimming with tears: “No, no, President Shen… I really don’t want your money, I don’t care about money… Just let me keep this child, I want him…”

“Is it not enough?”

“It’s not about money, President Shen, I don’t want money…”

Jian Sisi’s face was a picture of distress, she clutched the blanket, and tears “plinked” and “plinked” as they fell.

“I’ll give you three more minutes to decide. Either take the money and leave, or be expelled from C City!”

“President Shen… How can you be like this? If it hadn’t been for that intoxicated night, I would still be pure and innocent. But now, you’re placing all the blame on me. Is your heart made of ice? I’m not asking for any compensation from you; all I want now is for this child, and I’m only begging you to let me take him away.”

“You have two minutes left.”

“President Shen, you…!”

Jian Sisi’s body shook with anger, her face turning pale.

Xiao Mo tried to persuade her: “Jian Sisi, you’ve been with President Shen for four years; you should know his way of doing things.”

Of course, Jian Sisi knew. He was ruthless and emotionless.

Somehow, Zhou Peitian had offended him in the past, and Shen Chi made Zhou Peitian’s family run like stray dogs, scurrying from place to place.

Eventually, with nowhere to go, Zhou Peitian jumped from a building in despair, causing a sensation at the time.

But she never thought he could be this heartless.

Just as Jian Sisi was about to speak, Shen Chi glanced up and spotted something beneath her blanket.

He strode forward, reached out, and lifted her blanket!

Jian Sisi’s face turned deathly pale with fright; she immediately stood up, racing to grab the object!

“Jian Sisi, clever move.”

But Shen Chi snatched it first, not something else but a small recorder.

Jian Sisi’s lips quivered, she was doomed…

Indeed, Shen Chi sneered coldly, like a provoked lion, his eyes filled with a blood-red tinge.

Xiao Mo’s face also changed, impressed by Jian Sisi’s audacity to hide a recorder under the bed.

And here she was, claiming she wanted nothing, but in truth, she aimed to use it to threaten Shen Chi for greater benefits!

This woman’s thoughts were hidden deep.

“President Shen… I… I didn’t mean to…” Jian Sisi stuttered, unable to speak coherently.

Shen Chi mercilessly crushed the recorder under his foot, lifted his shoe, and ground it with force.

Soon, the recorder was smashed to bits.

“Jian Sisi, whose courage did you borrow? Huh?” Shen Chi thundered in rage.

“President Shen… I was wrong… I was wrong…”

Jian Sisi crawled from the head of the bed to Shen Chi’s side, trying to embrace him.

Shen Chi shook her off impatiently. “Clueless!” he exclaimed. “Take her to the operating room!”

As ordered, Xiao Mo came over to pull Jian Sisi away.

But Jian Sisi wouldn’t let Xiao Mo touch her: “President Shen, I was momentarily bewitched, listening to someone else’s words. It wasn’t intentional. Forgive me and let me keep the child, please… President Shen, he’s your own flesh and blood… Look at this, look.”

Jian Sisi picked up a sonogram from the head of the bed, pointing to the middle of it: “President Shen, look, look at your baby, he’s already two months old, he’s your child. Do you really want to abort him? Once he’s born, he will call you daddy, he’ll smile at you, and act spoiled with you. If you let him live, I’ll even let him stay with you in the future, and I can stay far away.”

Shen Chi looked down and saw the sonogram.

That little bean-sized shape was barely distinguishable.

“President Shen, look here, though it’s not fully formed yet, but look how cute. The doctor said the baby is very healthy.”

Shen Chi said nothing, his gaze fixed on the sonogram.

“The doctor said, it won’t be long before the child grows. Come back for another sonogram later on, and you’ll be able to see his little head… I really love him…”

Jian Sisi’s eyes revealed a mother’s tenderness, which didn’t seem feigned.

She kept staring at the sonogram, her fingers gently caressing where the child lay.

For a moment, the hospital room fell silent.

Shen Chi’s fists clenched tighter, his pupils constricting further and further…

His frigid face became even icier, but he knew clearly in his heart that this child’s mother was Jian Sisi.

He didn’t need a child born from this woman!

“President Shen, if you really despise me, then please don’t abort this child, okay? He’s your child, a little life. This child is innocent; he has just come into this world.”

“President Shen, I can leave, as long as you spare this child’s life. If you want this child, I’ll give him to you, just don’t abort him, please?”

Jian Sisi’s tone was gentle and choked, tinged with weeping.
