Chapter 202 - 202 Doubt!!
202 Doubt!!
Shen Ruojing stayed quietly in the small Shen Residence alone.
She sat on the sofa in the living room and showed no joy or sorrow on her face. No one could tell what she was feeling.
Emotions had never been a thing in her life.
It was like back then when Chu Cichen mysteriously vanished, she didn’t fall into depression and only found the matter strange. If Chu Cichen really wanted to abandon her, there was no need for him to eliminate all traces of his existence.
This was also the reason why she wanted to look for Chu Cichen. She wanted to ask him clearly what his reason was.
Shen Ruojing took a cup of hot tea at the side and drank two sips of it.
The tea she drank was warm, yet she still felt a bone-piercing chill.
Those words spoken by Chu Cichen were like stabs that pierced her heart.
A person like her wasn’t worthy of forgiveness.
Shen Ruojing then lowered her eyelids and smiled in a self-mocking manner.
However, at this moment, her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and heard Captain Cui saying, “The date of the event you asked me to keep a look-out for is going to be tomorrow.”
Shen Ruojing sat up. “Thanks.”
After hanging up, she checked the time. It was already 10 p.m.
She directly headed out, but the moment she opened the door, she saw a car from the Chu Family parked outside. The butler held a piece of luggage in her hands and started slightly when she noticed Shen Ruojing opening the door. She then retracted her hand that was about to knock on the door and spoke, “Sir Chu got me to send your luggage over.”
“…” Shen Ruojing’s fingers tightened slightly and she replied casually, “Got it.”
The butler then pointed at the car parked outside. “This was bought under your name, and Matriarch Chu said that what’s yours is yours.”
Shen Ruojing wanted to reject it, but after recalling the phone call by Captain Cui and the fact that she needed a car, as Lu Hui probably needed some time before he returned to the city, she nodded decisively. “Sure.”
After the butler finished speaking, she bowed respectfully to Shen Ruojing. She then turned and headed into another car before leaving directly.
Shen Ruojing walked over to her car directly and entered the driver’s seat.
However, she sensed something wrong and quickly turned her head only to see three little children seated behind her, staring at her in unison.
Shen Ruojing. “?”
She lifted her brows and asked in astonishment, “What are you all doing here?”
Chu Yu immediately said, “I don’t want to leave mommy. I’ll go where mommy goes!”
Chu Tianye was slower by a step. His lips twitched as he cursed Chu Yu silently in his heart. After that, he added, “Correct. I’ll be where mommy is at! Since daddy doesn’t want you, we don’t want daddy then!”
Chu Xiaomeng hugged her bag and dinosaur soft toy as she emotionlessly exposed the two of them. “It was grandma who got us to come.”
“…”
At this moment, Shen Ruojing finally understood what the butler meant earlier.
What’s hers is hers.
Warmth filled her heart.
Matriarch Chu basically had no idea what was happening and only roughly knew that she and Chu Cichen had a fallout. But even so, she didn’t hesitate to send the three children over.
When Chu Cichen had said that the Chu Family would raise the three children and only permitted her to visit them, she didn’t feel anything.
Such words were like words spoken by children during an argument. She didn’t take them to heart at all.
Given the little bit of strength that the Chu Corporation had, it was as easy as turning her palm over if she wanted to claim her children back.
However, she had been busy with her thoughts earlier and hadn’t considered this.
But since the three children had returned, she wouldn’t send them back. She directly fastened her seatbelt and started the car.
Chu Tianye asked, “Mommy, where are we going?”
“I’ll bring you guys to tour Ford City.” Shen Ruojing’s smile was now much more sincere.
“Excellent! Are we eloping?”
Chu Yu’s words were shocking. At the same time, he cast a look of disdain at his siblings nearby while silently sighing in his heart. Earlier when he heard his mommy’s phone call to get the servants to pack her luggage, he was already preparing to sneak out alone to look for her.
In this lifetime, he had decided that he would never be separated from his mommy.
Sadly, the two other extras were eventually sent over by his grandma.
If not, how great would things be if he could elope with his mommy, just the two of them?
Chu Tianye didn’t care about these. He hugged his puppy and patted its head. “Chuyu, I’ll bring you to a place that we decided to go on a whim~”
The two male children were incomparably excited, but Chu Xiaomeng had a pondering look on her face. She had yet to show her daddy the mask! It was currently hidden in her little bag.
Although she had no idea why her parents quarreled, her logic told her that as long as she took the mask out, the relationship between her parents would be mended instantly.
But then again, her daddy would surely chase after them. When Chu Xiaomeng saw him again, she would then take the mask out for him to see!
The chattering behind caused Shen Ruojing’s depressed mood to become much calmer.
Her lips slowly curled as she sent a text to Matriarch Chu. [Thank you.]
She then tossed her phone to the side and concentrated on driving.
The back seat of this off-road vehicle was very large, and it could be pushed down. Hence, at close to 11 p.m. the three children and puppy were so tired that they directly fell asleep after pushing the backs of their seats down.
Everything was already prepared and placed in the interior of the car. There were small blankets, and they all had a very good sleep.
Ten hours later.

The car arrived at Ford City.
A small-scale city built for films and movies was constructed on the outskirts of Ford City. Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen were filming there.
–
One night ago.
After Chu Cichen entered his study, he didn’t see Chu Xiaomeng. He thought that the children were already asleep, however, he didn’t mind that either.
He sat on his sofa for a very long time.
He had once argued with 518, discussing whether the creator of the No. 5 Neurotoxin was at fault or not.
518 had always been someone who was very logical, yet she was very obsessed with this matter.
Hence, he had never understood her obsession.
The No. 5 neurotoxin could kill silently. As it was colorless and odorless and just needed a tiny dosage to kill someone, it was indeed a supreme poison. However, the production process was simple. Although the majority of the countries had forbidden its production, some small workshops would still be secretly producing it. Back then in the organization, they would go and destroy these small workshops when they had no missions.
518 had shown mercy to people before. Her personality wasn’t the ruthless type.
But every time the person who created this poison was mentioned, she was adamant about hunting them down no matter what.
Why was it so?
Back then, 518 had an unbridled personality and would always rush to the forefront of things, disregarding the safety of her life. This was how she rose in the ranks of the organization and became the next publicly acknowledged leader.
At that time, he asked her why she staked her life for this. Was it worth it?
She casually replied, “My life is not worth anything.”
She didn’t care for her life, but she had a strange obsession with the No. 5 Neurotoxin. Every time they eradicated a workshop, she would heave a heavy sigh of relief.
But whenever she heard someone dying because of the poison, she would always be silent and incomparably angry.
It was as though…
She ought to be responsible for the No. 5 Neurotoxin.
But she wasn’t the person who created it. So what did this have to do with her?
…Wait a minute!!!
Chu Cichen abruptly sat up straight.
