Shen Ruojing slowed her steps.
After that, a smile appeared on her face. She didn't expect that she would have such feelings of homesickness.
She then quickened her pace once more. But just when she was two meters away from Chu Cichen, two bodyguards stepped out and blocked her.
She didn't mind and asked the most crucial question first, "You want to be engaged to Lin Wanru?"
If this matter was real, there was no longer a need to get to the bottom of things.
She, Shen Ruojing, was more than capable enough to let go if need be.
She had tracked him so hard for so many years simply because she wanted a result.
Chu Cichen sat on the sofa. His beautiful features were so perfect that they would shock anyone. Moreover, he was clad in a custom-made western suit, and every detail was strictly tailored. This further accentuated the sense of nobility he exuded.
When Lin Wanru was mentioned, he frowned slightly and replied, "No."
Upon hearing this, a look of satisfaction appeared in Shen Ruojing's eyes. She then continued to ask, "Where have you been all these years?"
Chu Cichen's cold phoenix eyes merely swept over her. After that, he pushed the petite and adorable Chu Xiaomeng forward and spoke with no emotions, "Miss Chen, please take your daughter with you."
Miss Shen…
This cold and estranged way of addressing caused Shen Ruojing to sense that something was wrong.
Chu Xiaomeng who was brought to the front skeptically asked, "Mommy, why does daddy say that he doesn't know you?"
Shen Ruojing started. "You don't know me?"
Chu Cichen's eyes flashed with a hint of impatience. "Should I know you?"
He had run into this little girl the moment he exited the airport. She then hugged his thigh and called him daddy, refusing to let go no matter what. Hence, he had no solution but to call the mother of this child.
In the end, he didn't expect that this woman would be even stranger. She immediately spoke to him with such familiarity when they just met.
As he pondered, he noticed Shen Ruojing suddenly side-stepping agilely, avoiding the guards. After that, she charged at him.
"Mr. Chu, be careful!"
The bodyguards cried out in shock, but the woman had charged past them. At this moment, Chu Cichen's gaze turned penetrating as his wrists were being pressed down. Shen Ruojing then sat beside him and was…feeling his pulse?
A gentle finger touched his lips. The woman's exquisite face appeared before his eyes, and her peach blossom eyes also contained immense charm. "Shh."
This pair of eyes seemed somewhat familiar…Chu Cichen actually didn't say anything due to being surprised.
The surrounding bodyguards were stunned as well. So…should they stop the woman or not? Or should they pretend not to see?
Half a minute later.
The finger on his lips shifted to his forehead and touched there.
The woman hesitated before speaking, "You are not running a fever and show no symptoms of amnesia from head injuries…"
Shen Ruojing then shot a glance at him. "Are you pretending now?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Cichen's expression changed. He abruptly stood up and took a step back to lengthen the distance between them. "Miss Shen, please respect yourself."
Leaning against a sofa, Shen Ruojing cocked her head and her beautiful eyelids fluttered. "I've given birth to your children, yet you are saying such a thing to me?"
The guards and Lu Cheng were both stunned. Lu Cheng who had always been in Sea City naturally knew who the eldest miss of the Shen Family was, so he exclaimed, "Shen Ruojing, are you saying that Bro Chen is the boyfriend of yours that disappeared?"
Shen Ruojing nodded. "That's right."
Lu Cheng found this very strange. "However, Bro Chen only returned to the country once in the past five years and only stayed for a week. I thought you and your boyfriend dated for half a year? Or are you and Bro Chen cyberdating?"
Shen Ruojing slowly sat back up. "He has always been in Sea City. We would meet for a date every weekend…"
Lu Cheng: "Your lies are not professional enough. Didn't I tell you that he has been overseas? Can you at least weave something better?"
Shen Ruojing frowned. (He has always been overseas?)
However, she could clearly remember the days they spent dating!
Could it be that—she had recognized the wrong person?
Shen Ruojing was sure she wouldn't recognize him wrongly, but just in case, she stood up and spoke to Chu Cichen, "Let me do a DNA test first before I come back to look for you."
She turned and left after that.
Earlier when she was feeling his pulse, she took the chance to pluck a strand of his hair. Taking a bag from her pocket, she placed the sample inside. She then returned home to look for her son so she could bring him to the DNA Verification Institution.
Chu Tianye, who had been waiting for news at home, looked behind her before glancing left and right. "Mommy, where is my sister?"
Shen Ruojing, "???"
Her daughter who had social phobia rarely ventured out. So…it seemed that she had forgotten and left her daughter behind?
-
In the VIP resting room of the airport.
The guards lowered their heads. "Failing to block Miss Shen is our mistake!"
Chu Cichen's expression was heavy. "There will be no exceptions next time."
"Yes!"
Lu Cheng carefully asked, "Bro Chen, what should we do with this kid?"
Chu Cichen lowered his head and looked at Chu Xiaomeng who was tugging his shirt. On the other hand, she lifted her head and stared at him with clear eyes that contained trust and adoration. Seeing her like this, he could only endure his rage and ask, "Where is your house?"
Chu Xiaomeng shook her head. "Daddy, I have no idea."
"Don't call me Daddy."
"Okay, Daddy."
"…"
A green vein throbbed on Chu Cichen's forehead. "Forget it, let's bring her to my home first."
The group of them then got into the prepared vehicles.
On the way, Chu Xiaomeng who suffered from social phobia was obediently sitting on the safety seat and did her best to reduce her sense of existence. However, her expressions were very fascinating to look at. It would be one of excitement before changing to one of hesitation.
Wow, she felt so happy. She was going to go to her daddy's home.
However, her daddy's family should be very huge, right?... That would be really scary!
Chu Cichen was observing her micro-expressions and felt that she was pretty adorable.
They soon arrived at the Chu Manor.
However, Chu Xiaomeng had fallen asleep in her seat, and her little head was tilted to the side.
Seeing this, Chu Cichen hesitated for a while before deciding to carry her down as he got off the vehicle.
Matriarch Chu was close to 50 years old yet had maintained her appearance carefully. At this moment, she took a step forward. "Cichen, you've finally returned…"
When she saw that he was carrying a child, she couldn't help but start. "This is?"
Matriarch Chu subconsciously stretched out her hand, wanting to take over Chu Xiaomeng. However, as the shifting commenced, the little fellow woke up from her sleep.
She rubbed her large eyes and saw…many people!
Chu Xiaomeng immediately squeezed her head into Matriarch Chu's embrace.
Matriarch Chu: "!"
The little child was indeed very adorable, and she exuded the smell of milk, causing Matriarch Chu to soften her tone as she asked, "Little lass, where are you from?"
Chu Xiaomeng: "Elder sister…I'm from my daddy's home."
Her brother taught her that the first thing to do in society was to address any beautiful woman as 'elder sister'!
Matriarch Chu was indeed very pleased when she heard that. She then spoke to Chu Cichen, "Is this another 'debt' due to your wild romances outside?"
There was a reason why she used the term 'another'.
Five years ago, Chu Cichen had returned to the country for a week. At that time, he was plotted against and had s*xual encounters with a woman.
Ten months later, Lin Wanru brought her child to the Chu Family.
After checking the DNA, the child did belong to Chu Cichen!
Matriarch Chu couldn't possibly ignore a child with the Chu bloodline and let it fend for itself outside. Hence, she kept the child and gave him the name 'Chu Yu'.
When she thought of this, Matriarch Chu's vision landed on Chu Xiaomeng once more. "Girly, who is your mother?"
Chu Xiaomeng replied, "Shen Ruojing."
Matriarch Chu frowned. Shen Ruojing again?
She thought of the scene today when Shen Ruojing had brought her son over and created a chaos at the banquet. But after she looked at the adorable Chu Xiaomeng, Matriarch Chu suddenly thought that things would actually be pretty good if she was truly her granddaughter.
Matriarch Chu suddenly said, "Do a DNA verification."
