Chapter 275 - 275 Confirmed

275 Confirmed

Lu Hui answered, “When he went to the Ford City Music Academy during these two days, he visited their canteen to look for a cafeteria aunty. I’ve investigated. This lady used to work in the Forest Park of Sea City and definitely has a connection with the happenings those years ago. As for the specifics, do you want to ask her personally or should I get someone to capture her and force the truth out?”

Shen Ruojing pondered for a moment and said, “I’ll ask personally.”

Chu Cichen went twice but didn’t bring that person away. There must be a reason why.

“Okay, we didn’t alarm that aunty.” Lu Hui then continued, “Oh right boss, I recently went to the capital and our businesses here are a little impacted. You…”

Shen Ruojing interrupted him, “I’ve retired, you don’t have to report such things to me.”

!!

Lu Hui. “?”

After hanging up, Shen Ruojing went down and casually grabbed some breakfast. She was about to head out when she was stopped by Shen Qianhui. “Jingjing, why don’t you eat here before you leave?”

Shen Ruojing always paid attention to health, so she would always eat a fixed amount at a fixed schedule.

Shen Ruojing. “I have to head out urgently.”

Shen Qianhui then said, “Oh right, the Bai Family is coming to send the betrothal gift today. Since your relationship with Little Wei is so good, remember to come back in time for that.”

Shen Ruojing started slightly upon hearing this.

She had a good relationship with Yun Wei?

She had always been cold and detached, maintaining her distance from everyone. But after thinking about it carefully, her attitude toward Yun Wei and Yun Yiheng did seem somewhat different.

Hence, she nodded. “Alright.”

When she reached the entrance, she suddenly heard Matriarch Chu suppressing her voice, which was filled with anger. “Brat, you’ve gone too far!”

Shen Ruojing had initially thought that Chu Tianye or Chu Yu must have done something. She then walked forward and saw that Matriarch Chu was actually talking on the phone. Her appearance looked sneaky, as though she was afraid of being overheard.

The person being scolded should be Chu Cimo.

Just when Shen Ruojing thought about this, she suddenly heard Matriarch Chu saying, “I initially thought that you would be more reliable when it comes to doing things because you are the eldest brother. Chu Cichen, I didn’t expect you to be so unreliable. You didn’t even bother to discuss something like this with me?”

Shen Ruojing. “!!”

Chu Cichen was a calm and restrained person. What could he do to make Matriarch Chu so angry?

She curiously took two steps forward, and Matriarch Chu seemed to have heard her footsteps, quickly turning back. The instant he saw Shen Ruojing, a hint of panic flashed in Matriarch Chu’s eyes. “Jingjing?”

Shen Ruojing asked, “Are you okay?”

Matriarch Chu’s lips twitched and she immediately waved her hands. “N…nothing much…”

Clearly, there was something she was hiding from her.

This family was too strange.

Just when Shen Ruojing wanted to continue probing, two juvenile voices suddenly rang out, “Did daddy do something that lets mommy down?”

Hearing this, Matriarch Chu and Shen Ruojing turned their heads and saw Chu Tianye and Chu Yu with the puppy. No one knew when they appeared here.

The two little fellows had their own thoughts in mind.

Chu Yu’s eyes brightened as he looked at Shen Ruojing. He then spoke in a manner as though he wanted Shen Ruojing to praise him, “Mommy, don’t worry. I will never make you angry!”

Shen Ruojing. “…”

Chu Tianye had a worried look on his face. “If daddy found another woman, would her kid fight me for the inheritance? I don’t care, I only acknowledge Chu Yu and Little Meng. I’ll make Chuyu bite any other kid who dares to vie with me!”

Chuyu. “Woof!”

“…”

“…”

Shen Ruojing and Matriarch Chu both had speechless expressions.

However, Shen Ruojing didn’t continue to probe what Chu Cichen might have done to infuriate Matriarch Chu so much. She headed out directly and went to the Music Academy.

After parking her car in the parking lot outside the school, she wore her mask and entered the campus.

There were a total of four canteens in the Music Academy, and she followed Lu Hui’s direction, heading straight for the eastern canteen.

Right now, the peak period for breakfast had passed and there weren’t many people here. She then followed the students and went to order some food. A male student with eyebags was currently ordering.

“Braised pork, please,” the student said boldly.

The canteen aunty immediately whipped out a large ladle and scooped some meat.

The student’s eyes brightened, but he soon saw the aunty shaking the ladle slightly.

Many of the pork pieces that were scooped up were shaken off, leaving only potatoes and two pieces of meat in the ladle.

The male student. “…”

Shen Ruojing’s lips curled. This familiar scene brought out her own mundane experiences in the university.

“Hey girl, what do you want?”

The male student walked away depressedly with his plate of food, and the cafeteria aunty asked Shen Ruojing.

Shen Ruojing pondered for a moment and suddenly removed her mask. Just when she wanted to ask if the cafeteria aunty knew who she was, she heard the aunty exclaiming. “Eh? Miss Shen?”

Shen Ruojing’s movements froze. “You recognized me?”

“Of course! In the past, I was a cleaner in Forest Park of Sea City. At that time, you and your boyfriend would go there frequently, and both of you are as good-looking as celebrities. Me and a few of my fellow sisters would see you guys dating there every weekend!”

Good-looking people would always attract the attention of others.

And given Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen’s appearances, they were naturally a striking presence.

At that time, this cafeteria aunty actually thought that they were celebrities!

Shen Ruojing started upon hearing her words.

She suddenly felt agitated in her heart. “So, you’ve seen me and him together those years ago?”

After the puppy-like guy vanished those years ago, she had been searching for clues about him.

But no one ever saw him before and it was like he had never existed. It felt as though she only imagined everything.

Chu Cichen also said that he didn’t return to the country back then, and this caused her to suspect whether she was crazy for a time. After all, she did indeed have mental issues in the past.

But now, a witness was standing right before her and telling her that she had seen the two of them dating in the park before!

“Yup!” The cafeteria aunty felt puzzled. “What’s going on with the two of you? Your boyfriend came back yesterday and two days ago, and I recognized him with just a single glance!”

The cafeteria aunty continued, “I asked your boyfriend, and he said you guys are still together and even have three adorable children now! Since both of your genes are so good, I’m sure your children must be very good-looking too…”

Shen Ruojing then confirmed some more details with the cafeteria aunty, asking things like when did she see them and where were they dating specifically in the park. The cafeteria aunty answered her perfectly, and nothing was different from her memories!

After the confirmation, Shen Ruojing didn’t hear the other unimportant mumbling from the cafeteria aunty.

Her mind was filled with thoughts. If her memories from the past had no problem, the problematic one must be Chu Cichen!

After bidding farewell to the aunty, Shen Ruojing left the canteen and directly took her phone out as she made a call to Chu Cichen.

Her call was soon connected, and Chu Cichen’s low voice rang out from the other end. “Jingjing.”

Shen Ruojing ignored his aggrieved tone and directly spoke domineeringly, “Where are you? I’ll look for you now. Tell me the truth you discovered without embellishments and don’t leave out any details.”
