205 Investigated!
Shen Ruojing drove and sent Rong Rong to a high-class district.
The security here was very tight. Without the owner’s permission, no one was allowed entry.
When Shen Ruojing came, she brought along the title deed. Rong Rong’s name was written on it. After she registered Rong Rong’s details at the real estate office with the title deed, her group then drove the car into the car park in the basement.
Shen Ruojing and Rong Rong each carried some living necessities while the three children followed behind them.
The group went upstairs together.
After reaching the apartment, Shen Ruojing took out another bank card and handed it to Rong Rong. “The password is your birthday.”
Rong Rong lowered his head and looked at that bank card, pushing it back to Shen Ruojing. “No need, I have enough money to spend.”
When she was still in prison, she had her own bank card too. Shen Ruojing would transfer money to her regularly. However, even if she had money, there was nowhere to spend it.
Hence, Rongrong had a lot of savings in her bank now.
Shen Ruojing didn’t insist too much. She knew that Rong Rong was in a sensitive phase and thus said outright, “Then... we’ll make a move first.”
Rong Rong was stunned. “Aren’t you guys staying here?”
Shen Ruojing smiled. “This is your apartment. Moreover, I have to bring the three of them to visit my father who is filming in film city.”
Rong Rong’s eyes turned red. She knew that Shen Ruojing was trying to give her sufficient space. If all of them were to live here, Rong Rong would have the feeling as if she was living under someone else’s roof.
She lowered her gaze. “After I take two days to rest and settle down, I’ll go visit Uncle and Auntie.”
“Alright.”
Shen Ruojing had the three children bid goodbye to Rong Rong and then brought them downstairs to leave.
After the group left, Rong Rong took a deep breath.
She turned and looked at this large apartment.
It would cost at least 10 million to buy a house like this in Ford City.
Many people wouldn’t be able to earn so much money even if they were to work hard for their entire lives. However, Rong Rong lived a good life from a young age and didn’t find this gift shocking.
She walked over to the sofa and sat down. She then took out her newly purchased phone and put in the sim card that she had registered earlier. She let out a long breath.
She had finally left the prison.
It was time to take back the things that belonged to her.
–
Chu Cichen saw the group enter the district from outside. After waiting for a short moment, he took out his phone and was just about to send a message to Chu Xiaomeng to call her out. However, at this moment, he saw Shen Ruojing’s car coming out again.
“...” Chu Cichen fell silent.
Muscles saw Chu Cichen take out his phone from the mirror. Chu Cichen had drafted the message and had yet to send it out. Muscles couldn’t help but ask, “Are we still following them?”
“Yes.”
This time around, the two cars finally arrived at Ford City’s film city.
Shen Ruojing didn’t inform Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen beforehand that they were coming today.
After she found the production team, she parked the car outside and brought the three children to the entrance.
“Wow, is this the production team?” Chu Tianye stretched out his neck excitedly and looked around.
Chu Yu followed Shen Ruojing wherever she went and thus was constantly by her side.
Chu Xiaomeng had social phobia and had never come into contact with so many people before. When she saw many staff employees walking to and fro inside, her small body immediately tensed up.
She subconsciously took a step back, wanting to hide by Shen Ruojing’s side.
However, at this moment, a group of people came over. The staff employee in the lead put out his hand and pushed Chu Xiaomeng. “Move, move! Hurry up and move!”
Chu Xiaomeng was pushed and only managed to stabilize herself after taking two steps back.
Shen Ruojing frowned.
She turned and looked over, only to see that the staff employee didn’t apologize. Furthermore, he also said reproachingly, “Where did these children come from? Is this a place where you guys can come? Hurry up and move!”
After he was done saying that, a group of people crowded around a woman who looked domineering as they all walked in.
As Jing Zhen was an actor, Shen Ruojing knew most of the actors who were a bit more famous recently. However, she had never seen this woman before. This person must be a newcomer.
A newcomer dared to act like a diva in the production team?
Just as Shen Ruojing was thinking this, Shen Qianhui came out. When she saw her daughter, she asked in astonishment, “Why have you come?”
Shen Ruojing was about to say something when Chu Tianye said, “Sigh, Mommy brought us with her and ran away from home.”
Shen Qianhui. “...”
They were at the entrance and it wasn’t appropriate for Shen Qianhui to ask about the situation here. She then let the four people and a puppy in.
The three children were very well-behaved. Even Chuyu was good at assessing the situation and knew that it must remain silent here. The four people and a puppy then arrived at a resting area next to the production team.
This was a good spot to watch the filming.
Shen Qianhui pointed to the actors and actresses, saying, “Look! That’s the male lead. He has the greatest popularity amongst the younger generation now!”
Shen Qianhui then pointed to the arrogant female celebrity from earlier and said softly, “That person is this film’s female lead, Yun Lu. I heard that she’s the young miss of an influential family and only entered the entertainment circle for fun. The reason this male lead was picked to pair with her is to boost the show’s popularity!”
Yun Lu... Young miss of an influential family...
Shen Ruojing didn’t need to think to guess that Yun Lu was from the Yun Family.
The Yun Family was a hegemon-like existence in the entertainment circle in Ford City. For one of their family members to come out, wouldn’t it be equal to them funding the movie?
Shen Qianhui then introduced a few other actors and actresses to Shen Ruojing. After that, the filming started. As the director said “action”, everyone else immediately became silent. No one dared to say a word.
Shen Ruojing stared at the filming scene.
This was a period drama. Jing Zhen played the ultimate villain boss and also the emperor of their era. The plot was also coming to an end and Jing Zhen had a lot of scenes.
He was dressed in bright yellow clothes and was sitting on the throne, leaning lazily by the side.
His entire body exuded an overbearing emperor’s aura.
The popular young male lead played the role of the crown prince.
As for Yun Lu, she played the role of a daughter of a sinned official. She hid her identity and wanted to restore the name of her family. In the beginning, she thought that it was other officials who had framed her entire family. However, after she made use of the crown prince’s connections to trace all the officials who were involved in framing her family, she discovered that the one who had caused all these to happen was the emperor.
At this moment, Yun Lu had become the crown princess and she started a coup d’état with the crown prince. In this scene, they pushed their way into the palace and the three of them were having a confrontation.
Yun Lu and the crown prince were each holding a blood-stained blade. It was clear that they had killed many people.
The two of them stood in front of Jing Zhen.
The crown prince said, “Father, do you still not know of your mistakes now?”
Jing Zhen looked up lazily, his peach blossom eyes filled with sharpness and indifference. Right now, the aura of a ruler filled up the place. He didn’t look at the crown prince but instead at the crown princess. “Crown Princess, I should have expected long ago that you aren’t someone who knows your place.”
His indifferent tone brought out the disposition of a ruler looking down on the world when he said this.
The crown princess was in shock.
One second passed, two seconds passed...
A momentary awkwardness appeared and everyone, including Shen Ruojing, realized that Yun Lu had failed to continue the act.
The impact that Jing Zhen gave off was too strong.
Jing Zhen had the charm of an experienced actor, in addition to the domineering aura of a ruler he had on him right now. The young male lead was able to somehow continue the act, but Yun Lu was so startled that she forgot her lines.
The director was very satisfied with Jing Zhen’s performance. Seeing how the female lead seemed to be choked with fury, he held it in for a while before saying in a roundabout way, “Cut! Lulu, what’s wrong? Have you forgotten your lines?”
Yun Lu bit her lips, feeling embarrassed. She suddenly pointed in Shen Ruojing’s direction and complained, “Director, those three children are so noisy that they made me forget my lines!”
Shen Ruojing. “?”
The three children, who hadn’t moved and made a single sound were all speechless, with question marks filling their minds.
Even Chuyu’s wagging tail suddenly stopped. The dog’s eyes turned, as it wondered if it shouldn’t be wagging its tail.
Even wagging its tail was wrong?
–
At the same time.
Outside the film city.
Chu Cichen didn’t follow them in. He sat in the car and his phone suddenly rang. He then lowered his head and took a look, to discover that it was a message from Lu Cheng about his investigations.
Lu Cheng. [Bro Chen, I’ve found out. Rong Rong was sentenced to 13 years of jail.]
13 years...
Did that mean that Shen Ruojing got to know Rong Rong when she was around 11 or 12 years old?
One of them was in Sea City, while the other was in Ford City.
Their families didn’t have any connections either. So how did they become good friends?
He then thought of 518. She was someone who had suddenly popped up 13 years ago...
Could it be...
Chu Cichen vaguely sensed that there was something about this and immediately asked, “What crime did she commit?”
