417 Truth
Shen Ruojing just came back but was about to go out again. This attracted the attention of everyone in the living room.
When Chu Yu heard Shen Ruojing talking, his head immediately turned around. After seeing his mommy, he immediately ran over.
However, when he reached the entrance, Shen Ruojing was already gone. This caused him to start slightly. “Where did mommy go?”
The smile on Chu Cichen’s face gradually vanished.
Panic strangely appeared in his heart. It felt like Shen Ruojing was going to leave him…
She had always been leading a life of retirement and didn’t care about anything. But now, it seemed that she was even busier than him…
Just when he thought of this, Chu Yu asked depressedly, “Was mommy so busy in the past?”
Chu Xiaomeng took the chance to put down her writing brush as she replied, “Nope. Mommy was never so busy. She hated being busy the most.’
Chu Cichen. “Xiaomeng, don’t slack.”
Chu Xiaomeng whose actions were discovered immediately pouted. She could only pick her writing brush up again. “Daddy, this brush is too heavy. My fingers are already tired.”
Matriarch Chu, who was at the side, twitched her lips and exposed her. “You’ve practiced for less than half an hour!”
Chu Xiaomeng’s voice became softer as she spoke. “Scientific research states that the bones of five-year-old children have not been fully developed yet, so they cannot practice for more than half an hour. You guys are abusing children.”
Matriarch Chu. “?”
Chu Cichen rubbed her head and said, “This scientific research is not scientific at all. Continue to practice.”
Chu Xiaomeng’s dream was dashed. She had a dispirited expression on her face as she complained unhappily, “Daddy, it is so boring to practice calligraphy. I wish to research quantum science…”
“You can do so after practicing for half an hour more.”
Chu Xuaomeng. “…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBoohoohoo. In the past, her daddy would always agree to all her requests. But now, her daddy had a change of heart!
She stared pleadingly at Chu Tianye, only to see him stretching two fingers out to her. It must mean that he wanted $200. Chu Xiaomeng nodded in agreement.
Chu Tianye paused before suddenly adding three more fingers. The price had now changed to $500. He increased the price on the spot!
Chu Xiaomeng. “!”
But even so, she nodded her head.
Chu Tianye immediately grinned and went to Chu Cichen. The little fellow lifted his head and asked, “Daddy, what is mommy busy with recently?”
What was she busy with…?
Chu Cichen’s gaze dimmed slightly.
He also had no idea.
Speaking of which, he had yet to completely understand Shen Ruojing. Before this, he had no idea that she was Prof. Z, no idea that she was Divine Doctor Jing, and no idea that she was Anonymous and Qing Dai…
After all, the had never taken the initiative to reveal her matters and he had never asked before.
When they first got acquainted with each other, he felt that there was no need to ask. After all, this woman was just the mother of his three children. Her other matters had nothing to do with him.
After knowing that she was 518, he didn’t dare to ask. He was always cautious for fear of treading on her bottom line as it might make her leave him.
For example, like now…he didn’t even dare to ask her what she was busy with. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet
This was because he was afraid that he didn’t have these qualifications.
After all, the person who had confessed to her back then wasn’t him…the person who had accompanied her on dates also wasn’t him.
“Bzz…”
The roar from her motorbike’s engine rang out. Evidently, Shen Ruojing was going to leave.
Chu Cichen clenched his fists tightly and suppressed the impulse to rush out. He lowered his eyelids, but as expected, he no longer paid any attention to Chu Xiaomeng.
Chu Xiaomeng took the chance to put her writing brush down and spoke to Matriarch Chu, “Grandma, I want to drink water.”
Matriarch Chu. “…You just drank.”
Chu Xiaomeng, “I’m going to the toilet.”
“You just went.”
“Ah? But I feel thirsty now and also want to go to the toilet…”
Matriarch Chu was very helpless. She then glanced at her son, the only one who could support her, and saw that he was distracted and not paying attention to this. Hence, Matriarch Chu, who felt heartache for her granddaughter, decided to let her off.
Chu Xiaomeng was like a freed butterfly as she excitedly ran out.
At this moment, Chu Cichen’s phone vibrated.
He lowered his head and saw a text sent by Lu Cheng: [Boss, you got me to investigate who was dating Shen Jiayi, and I have some results. There is indeed someone who looks the exact same as you! However, before we moved in to capture him, we discovered Lord Jing’s people there too. Should we still go ahead with the plan to capture him?]
Chu Cichen’s chin tensed after he saw the text.
These days, he had been getting Lu Cheng to investigate the matter of the past. When Shen Jiayi kept speaking nonsense to him, as though the two of them had interacted privately, he sensed something. Hence, he got Lu Cheng to pay attention to Shen Jiayi.
He had finally found that person now!
But should he go and capture him?
Shen Ruojing had clearly found that person but didn’t inform him. Wasn’t it because she didn’t want him to act?
Would Jingjing be unhappy if he carelessly went over at this time?
This man, who had always been decisive, suddenly didn’t know what to do as he hesitated.
He stood at his location and felt extremely conflicted, but his phone suddenly rang at this moment.
It was a series of unknown numbers that was calling him.
...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChu Cichen’s gaze sank slightly. Although the numbers were unknown, he was very familiar with them. It must be that person in the shadows who kept calling Shen Ruojing back then!
He picked up the call, and the familiar electronic voice rang out. “Mr. Chu, Shen Ruojing is going to meet with her old flame. Why don’t you take a guess whether the person she loved is you or him?”
“That person accompanied her for a full half a year, and they would date every week. As for you, you only met her by chance overseas. So, do you think love at first sight is more important, or do you think a relationship that’s slowly nurtured is more important?”
Chu Cichen glanced at his three children and took two steps toward the entrance. He lowered his voice. “Do you think you can sow discord between us by saying this?”
“Am I sowing discord? I’m merely stating a fact. In the past, she was truly in a very bad frame of mind. It was him who accompanied her step by step until she walked out of the darkness, allowing her to have the thought of leading an ordinary life. What about you? When she needed someone to accompany her the most, where were you?! Oh, the you back then basically didn’t know who she is.”
The green veins at the back of Chu Cichen’s hand were throbbing. He clearly knew that the other party was sowing discord, but he wasn’t able to suppress the rising panic he was feeling at this moment.
W…who was the person Shen Ruojing loved exactly?!
Chu Cichen only felt that he was surrounded by darkness as if he was tossed into a land of ice and snow.
His voice was steady as he replied, “The one she loved is me. There is no doubt about this. The him back then could only masquerade as me!”
“But what if he wasn’t masquerading as you and that person has always been himself in front of Shen Ruojing?”
His words were like a thunderbolt that exploded in Chu Cichen’s ears.
...
Next, Chu Cichen’s heart sank even more as the electronic voice continued to speak, “If you are so confident in yourself, why didn’t Shen Ruojing inform you that she is going to meet him? Why did she have to do it behind your back?”
Chu Cichen pressed his lips tightly together.
Just when he didn’t know how to answer these questions and face these doubts, just when he couldn’t be sure of how this matter would develop and was lost and helpless…
“Vroom…screech!”
The sound of a motorbike’s engine whirring rang out from the entrance, followed by the sound of a sudden break. After that, a woman removed her helmet and smoothed her long black hair, allowing it to flutter freely in the wind.
Shen Ruojing quietly looked at him. “Oh, I forgot to tell you that I’ve found the guy who masqueraded as you. Do you want to go with me to find out the truth?”
“…”
Chu Cichen’s shaky heart state calmed instantly.
