Xu Chaomu buried herself in his embrace, clinging tightly to his chest; she could feel the sound of his heartbeat.
"Shen Chi... I am a bad woman. I found a witness from the fire fourteen years ago, and I'm going to take Auntie Zhou... your mother to court," Xu Chaomu said seriously, clutching his sweater.
Shen Chi felt a sudden halt in his heartbeat, as if it had abruptly stopped.
His thin lips pressed tightly together, his gaze rested on the white wall ahead.
"You tell me, am I very bad? I just seem to have it out for you. I know I might not win the lawsuit, but you're definitely going to hate me, aren't you?" Xu Chaomu smiled, her other hand caressing his chin.
His entire face tensed up; she knew she had provoked him.
"Shen Chi, I heard Shen's has been having some trouble lately. If I take Auntie Zhou to court, will Shen's shares keep falling... She is your biological mother, I know, and you will hate me for it..."
