If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 778 - : If women don’t spend money, whats the use of men earning it?

Chapter 778: Chapter 778: If women don’t spend money, what’s the use of men earning it?

Several female colleagues rushed over and gathered around her.

Xu Chaomu also looked on curiously. The expression on her coworker’s face was one of astonishment. What could she have possibly seen to be so excited?

Could it be that the big star Kim Jung-hoon was coming to C City?

However, Xu Chaomu only had eyes for Shen Chi; she was immune to all other handsome men.

No matter how attractive those guys were, could they be more handsome than Shen Chi? Of course not!

“Xu Chaomu, Xu Chaomu, come here!” The female colleague finally snapped out of her shock and waved her over.

...

Curious, Xu Chaomu walked over, “What is it?”

“Is this the chocolate bought by your husband? Is it? Is it?!”

The female colleague pointed at the computer screen, her face full of surprise, and the other female colleagues around her were also stunned.

Confused, Xu Chaomu walked over and after standing still, she glanced at the computer screen. Indeed, there it was.

Tippy Workshop custom handmade dark chocolate from Germany.

After skimming the text introduction, Xu Chaomu continued to read on, and suddenly, she too was struck dumb!

She covered her mouth, her eyes widening as she stared at the screen.

This custom handmade chocolate was worth eighteen thousand a piece! Damn it, eighteen thousand, and she wasn’t seeing it wrong!

She counted it again, five digits, eighteen thousand!

She blinked vigorously, no mistake!

Xu Chaomu was on the verge of tears. This chocolate was so valuable—its value was secondary. According to the website, it took a very long production cycle to make just one piece; it was time-consuming and labor-intensive, with very low production.

So, how much money had she squandered away this morning?

Her math wasn’t good…

With a mournful face, Xu Chaomu covered her face and prepared to return to her seat.

This chocolate must have been custom made by Shen Chi for her, right? But… but she only ate one piece.

If President Shen found out that she had been so unappreciative of his intentions, would he be infuriated to death?

“Wait, Xu Chaomu, don’t go!” A female colleague grabbed her arm, “Your chocolate, it’s a knockoff, right?”

They too were shocked, each with wide eyes.

“Eighteen thousand, eighteen thousand, and that’s probably just the conservative price online, right?”

“Damn, did I eat eighteen thousand this morning?”

“If only I’d known it was worth eighteen thousand, I wouldn’t have eaten it. I could have exchanged it for money!”

“Tell me it’s not true, not true…”

Xu Chaomu forced an ugly smile, her feelings a complex jumble.

She managed a weak smile and said, “Fake, it’s fake… Think about it, it couldn’t possibly be real…”

“I also think it’s fake. How could it be so extravagant! It’s more expensive than gold. Damn, I really did a terrible thing. Thankfully it’s fake, just fake…” another colleague wailed.

Xu Chaomu nodded, “Right, right, it’s definitely a knockoff. If you think about it, my husband doesn’t have that much money. Besides, it tasted so-so, definitely a knockoff.”

“That scared the life out of me,” that female colleague patted her chest.

“Alright, let’s get back to work, work,” Xu Chaomu smiled.

After saying this, she hurried back to her seat.

However, her little heart was pounding non-stop, unable to calm down for a long time.

How much money had she given away that morning?

Shen Chi was really generous, stuffing a can of the chocolate to her without so much as a heads-up!

If she had known, she would never have been so generous with it!

No, no, no, her heart wasn’t calming down.

She grabbed her phone and quickly ran outside to call Shen Chi.

Shen Chi was in his office reviewing documents when he saw that Xu Chaomu was calling and picked up the phone.

“Fourth Brother…”

“Hmm?”

Xu Chaomu’s face showed an urge to cry, “How much is that chocolate worth?”

“Chocolate? Oh, the chocolate.” Shen Chi acted as if it was nothing, “Just a few hundred thousand.”

“Just?! Shen Chi, you’re really generous, do you need to spoil me so extravagantly?” Xu Chaomu cried.

“Yes, you are my most beloved pet, of course, I need to take good care of you.” Shen Chi laughed, “Besides, you have another one in your belly.”

“Shen Chi, can you save some money, please? You’re being so wasteful that the baby’s milk money is gone!” Xu Chaomu huffed.

“Is it really a waste? Not at all,” Shen Chi said earnestly.

“Let me tell you, I thought it was just a few hundred dollars worth of chocolate, I shared it all with my colleagues…” Xu Chaomu held her forehead.

Shen Chi’s lips twitched. So she had shared the chocolate he had custom made for her with her colleagues?

“Xu Chaomu, you’re really wasteful!” Shen Chi was furious.

His anger stemmed from the fact that his gift, his gesture, was given away to others!

Xu Chaomu felt wronged, “It’s all been shared, there’s nothing I can do now, yell at me…”

“Not going to yell,” Shen Chi said indifferently, “What use is a man earning money if the woman doesn’t spend it?”

“…” Xu Chaomu clutched her phone, Shen Chi’s change of tone had been a bit too quick.

“If you want more, hubby will order it for you.”

“No need, I can’t afford it…” Xu Chaomu shook her head quickly.

“How can’t you afford it? Your husband still has money to buy you snacks,” Shen Chi feigned a frown.

Xu Chaomu’s mouth twitched. Is this what you call a snack? Can this even be classified as a snack?!

How could she dare to eat anymore?!

“You go back to your work, work. Next time you slip me some snacks, remember to tell me the price in advance, so I can be mentally prepared.”

After speaking, Xu Chaomu hung up the phone.

With a miserable face, she trudged back into the office.

She only realized upon her return that the design department was in an uproar.

Everyone was discussing the chocolate matter, but they all agreed that the chocolate had to be fake. Some even suspected it might cause a stomachache.

Xu Chaomu held her forehead; indeed, eating something worth eighteen thousand could really upset one’s stomach.

That whole day, Xu Chaomu had a lingering feeling of guilt.

She had never received such an expensive snack from Shen Chi before, and the one time he bought it, she went and shared it with her colleagues.

Xu Chaomu touched her belly and muttered to herself: “Baby, was the chocolate tasty? Remember, it’s eighteen thousand.”

It pained her heart, her liver, and her flesh.

Xu Chaomu shook her head, trying to suppress the thought.

She sent the design draft to Linda and started to review the notes for the upcoming exhibition.

Her supervisor even had his secretary send her a few documents. Xu Chaomu read them carefully, making notes on the paper with her pen.

For lunch, Xu Chaomu didn’t return to the Shen Family’s place or go to the employee cafeteria; instead, she went downstairs to eat.

She needed a good meal to calm her nerves!

Alone in the restaurant, she picked a nice spot, ordered some dishes, and began to eat.

Pizza, steak, milk tea… she ordered them all.

Alright, time to eat.

She needed to settle her nerves after today’s events.

However, just as she was eating her pasta, a man took a seat in front of her.

Xu Chaomu’s hand froze, and after swallowing a mouthful of pasta, she looked up, slightly shocked at him.

This man was none other than Nie Chenglang.
