353 Valor Gate’s Martial ‘Uncle’ (1)
Shen Ruojing asked, “Where?”
“In the capital!” Shen Qianhui was very happy. “He is still alive. I found some people who were in Ford City those years ago, and they are in the agriculture research industry. Your grandfather was their leader! Although they didn’t know his identity, they are sure that after your grandfather and grandmother separated, he returned to the capital. Hence, he is currently here!”
Shen Qianhui couldn’t help but sigh after she said this. “Do you think I will encounter him?”
“It’s a little difficult.”
Shen Ruojing glanced at the congested surroundings. There were so many people in the capital, so how could one have a random encounter in this vast sea of people?
However…
“I’ll help you investigate.”
Shen Ruojing slowly spoke.
Shen Qianhui knew that her daughter had a wide network and she had always achieved what she promised. Hence, she was very happy after she heard that.
Shen Qianhui gently nagged her to wear more clothes as the weather was cold.
Seeing that Shen Qianhui was going to continue nagging, Shen Ruojing spoke, “Mother, is father calling you?”
As expected, Shen Qianhui immediately spoke, “Oh? I’ll hang up first. I’ll look for him.”
“…’
Shen Ruojing’s lips twitched and finally put her phone down.
Just when she lifted her head and wanted to say something, the area before her dimmed.
Chu Cichen’s enlarged face suddenly appeared before her eyes. His skin was so good that his pores couldn’t be seen, and the air he breathed out caused Shen Ruojing’s eyes to narrow slightly.
At the next instant!
The man’s cold and thin lips pressed against hers.
Shen Ruojing’s body stiffened.
Back when she was dating the puppy-like guy, regardless of whether they were in the country or overseas, the most they went with was holding hands. After that…that night happened.
However, Chu Cichen was schemed against that night and was drugged. His actions were clearly in a hurry and there was no foreplay.
So, Shen Ruojing basically had no experience in this. She only felt that her heart leaped up her throat in an instant and even her breathing felt stifled!
The man might be scared of frightening her, hence, his soft lips immediately separated from hers after a quick touch.
Shen Ruojing’s first reaction was to look at the front seat. She then saw that Lu Cheng was fully focused on driving as though he hadn’t seen anything.
Only then did she look at Chu Cichen. She noticed that although his expression was normal, his red ears exposed his true feelings. His phoenix eyes then stared fixedly at her eyes, and his lips curled slightly. He was clearly extremely happy. “Jingjing, you said the words ‘mother-in-law’ earlier, so does it mean that you’ve agreed to marry me?”
Shen Ruojing. “…”
She had been wondering why this man suddenly became so gusty and dared to kiss her. So, it was because her words gave him the confidence.
Shen Ruojing blushed slightly. Chu Cichen’s gaze was so passionate that it looked as though he was about to propose the next instant, causing her heartbeat to quicken tremendously. So, she quickly turned her head away.
Chu Cichen indeed wanted to take this opportunity and propose.
He could clearly sense that Shen Ruojing didn’t resist when he kissed her earlier.
She did indeed like him.
But before he could speak, the woman averted her gaze. This caused his heart to turn slightly cold and the smile on his face to slowly be filled with bitterness.
Chu Cichen panicked.
Up until now, he was actually confused about whether Shen Ruojing was in love with the him overseas or the fake him in China…
However, he wouldn’t force her to make a choice.
The car soon arrived at the Chu Manor. The moment the car stopped, Shen Ruojing pushed the door open and swiftly got out. After that, she felt that her behavior might be misleading, so she decided to turn and look at Chu Cichen. This woman who had always been composed then fumbled her words. “Hmm…I arranged to meet someone else for fishing.”
After this explanation, she jumped onto her motorbike and directly sped out as the engine buzzed.
She was shy…this caused the unease in Chu Cichen’s heart to vanish. The smile on his face gradually grew confident.
After hearing the sound of the car, Chu Cimo walked out of the house. After seeing Chu Cichen’s expression, his heart was filled with joy. “Elder brother, did the negotiations with the Shen Family work out well?”
Chu Cichen looked at him. “Nope.”
Chu Cimo. “Why are you so happy then?”
Chu Cichen ignored him and went directly to his room.
Chu Cimo wanted to follow him, but his phone suddenly rang. He then lowered his head and checked the caller ID. As a result, his expression instantly turned heavy. He glanced to the left and right and walked toward the empty car park. Only then did he pick up the call. “Fifth Senior Bro.”
An anxious voice rang out from the other end. “Little junior brother, something bad happened!”
