I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 37: The Truth Behind the Photo

Translator: Lordbluefire

Chu Cichen sent over a photo.

When Shen Ruojing downloaded it, Chu Cichen said slowly, “I’ve thought about it for very long. When I went to school that day, I only took one photo. It was true that it was in front of the library, but back then, people took me as a foreign student and pulled me over for a group photo.”

Ding.

The photo was downloaded.

After Shen Ruojing opened it up, she realized that it was indeed a group photo.

Over 20 people stood in a row.

Chu Cichen and her were standing on the rightmost side of the crowd. But the two of them had beautiful appearances and were very eye-catching.

After covering the rest of the people, what was left was surprisingly the photo of her and Chu Cichen. Even the library background behind them was identical!

Shen Ruojing was stunned and her fingertips tightened on her phone.

The memories from that day gushed into her mind.

Back then, Chu Cichen had gone to that school for an errand. It was because he had said that his company had him go work on a project and he happened to go to F. Country during that time.

Chu Cichen had called her and asked her to meet him at the school.

That day, they walked for a very long time in the school. When they saw the library, a man who looked more like a big boy suddenly said shyly that he wanted to take a photo with her.

However, Shen Ruojing’s identity was special and she never left behind evidence on the Internet, let alone take photos.

Back then, the two of them had affirmed their relationship for two months. Looking at the boy, Shen Ruojing agreed.

The boy immediately dashed out, grabbed a passerby, and handed his phone over to them. He then ran back to stand next to her. Back then, she was a little unwilling, so her expression was a little solemn.

At that time, there was indeed a group of people who came rushing over, wanting to take photos too, but she didn’t pay much attention to them.

She casually forwarded the email and Chu Cichen’s voice came from the phone again. “Miss Shen, I think we need to have a good talk.”

Shen Ruojing said, “Alright, you can choose the location.”

“I’m at the back entrance of your neighborhood.”

Hearing this, Shen Ruojing hung up and went downstairs.

She also happened to see Shen Qianhui hanging up the phone. Shen Qianhui’s thin body was leaning against the sofa, and her elegant cheongsam outlined her graceful figure. Her exquisite makeup could not hide the worry between her brows.

Jing Zhen was eating breakfast slowly, looking as elegant as a prince. Even an ordinary scene in their lives was pleasing to the eye.

Jing Zhen always said unexpected things, but his voice was very pleasant. “Is it from the Shen Family again?”

Shen Qianhui lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes covering the sadness in her eyes. “Mn, Mother asked me to help be a middleman to introduce them to the Z Corporation or the Chu Family. It’s not like we own the Z Corporation. Would they sign a contract just because I asked them to? It’s even more impossible with the Chu family. Even if anything were to happen to either of us, I still wouldn’t want to trouble the Chu Family, lest they look down on Jingjing. And now Mother wants me to go to the Chu Family to ask them for cooperation. Why doesn’t she consider Jingjing’s situation at all?”

Jing Zhen swallowed a mouthful of bread and said in a muffled voice, “She’s not her biological granddaughter, so of course she doesn’t care.”

Shen Qianhui was stumped for a short moment, then a layer of hazy moisture appeared in her eyes. She suddenly asked, “Where do you think my biological parents are? Why did they abandon me back then?”

A dark glint flashed across Jing Zhen’s peach blossom eyes. “Maybe they had their difficulties.”

Shen Qianhui looked at him. Although her voice was gentle, her attitude was very serious. “I’m not afraid of hardship. I just hope that we can face any difficulties together as a family. However, I was probably born to be fated with weak kinships and was not blessed with them. Therefore, I was thrown away when I was born. Then, my adoptive mother tried all ways to scheme against me...”

After complaining for a while, Shen Qianhui sighed and said, “Forget it. I’m already 48 years old. What’s the point of pursuing my background?”

Jing Zhen didn’t say anything and stuffed the rest of the bread into his mouth.

He suddenly walked over and held Shen Qianhui’s hand. “Honey, have some breakfast first. Nothing is absolute. Who knows, they might come knocking on the door one day?”

Shen Ruojing was already immune to her parents’ public display of affection. She then walked through the living room and headed out.

There was some distance between her house and the district’s back entrance. When she strolled over slowly, she saw a black Bentley parked there quietly. Four bodyguards in black stood around the car with their hands behind their backs.

When they saw her, one of them immediately put out his hand and greeted her.

Shen Ruojing walked over. “… Da Shan?”

“It’s me.” Da Shan scratched his head and coughed. “I betrayed the kidnappers. Young Master… Ahem, Mr. Chu was afraid that I would be punished by others, so he asked me to come and… to come and join his guards!”

“…”

Shen Ruojing’s lips twitched. Could this cover-up be any more obvious?

Da Shan was probably part of Chu Cichen’s power in Sea City’s underworld. This time, in order to save Chu Yu, he had been exposed and could only abandon the dark side.

She asked, “What about those people from the Lin Family?”

Da Shan said, “Madam Lin and Lin Wanru are in jail. The evidence is conclusive. In addition, they were sentenced to life imprisonment for stealing a child, fraud, and a series of other things.”

After saying that, Da Shan muttered softly, “Miss Shen, don’t worry. Young Master specially instructed some people to watch over them. They will definitely suffer.”

Shen Ruojing nodded.

By this time, she had already walked to the Bentley. Da Shan shut his mouth and opened the door for her respectfully.

In the car.

Chu Cichen sat on the leather seat with the laptop in front of him switched on. The person on the computer screen was talking in French and reporting about work matters.

Noticing that the door was opened, he glanced at her and nodded slightly. “Wait a moment.”

Then he pointed to the seat opposite him and gestured for her to take a seat. He then looked at the computer again.

Shen Ruojing sat down and closed the car door.

She heard Chu Cichen reply in French, his deep voice as pleasant as a cello.

His French pronunciation was perfect. In a daze, it reminded Shen Ruojing that five years ago, he had sent her a voice message in French one night…

After dealing with the overseas matters, Chu Cichen closed the laptop and looked up coldly at Shen Ruojing. “Miss Shen, do you believe what I said now?”

Shen Ruojing lowered her eyes. “What time did you go to school that day?”

Chu Cichen did not answer. Instead, he handed her a piece of paper that he had prepared long ago. On it was his schedule for the entire day. Although he had concealed his identity that day and traveled incognito, he remembered what he was doing at every period.

Shen Ruojing took the schedule and read it from beginning to end. She realized that other than the time they were both at the library when taking the photo, there was no other overlap in their timing.

What was going on?

Could it be that she was the one with memory problems instead?

As Shen Ruojing was thinking, Chu Cichen’s body slowly leaned forward, and he became very aggressive. “Miss Shen, I really don’t know you. I couldn’t have pursued you five years ago either.”

Shen Ruojing frowned. “Why are you so sure?”

“Because,” Chu Cichen lowered his eyes and leaned against the back of the seat, distancing himself from her. “At that time, I already have someone I like.”

“…”

The car suddenly fell silent.

After a while, Shen Ruojing frowned and asked, “Who is she?”
