Chapter 255 - 255 The Matter Five Years Ago Has Been Investigated Clearly!

255 The Matter Five Years Ago Has Been Investigated Clearly!

Shen Qianhui naturally wanted to know.

Her only obsession in this life was to know the identity of her parents and where she came from.

But at this moment, she actually said, “I don’t want to listen to any secrets you give away for free. Who knows if it is real or not.”

She wouldn’t believe any words from this woman ever again.

“In that case, you can head to mother’s study and check an old photograph slotted within a book titled [Red and Black]! In the past, mother would always gaze at it secretly.”

Shen Wanxian’s eyes gleamed with toxicity. “Don’t you find me very pitiful because of my biological father? Let me tell you something, your father’s status isn’t anywhere as good as you imagine. Back then, your mother fell in love with an ordinary man. During that era, only parties of equal statuses could get married, so how could she lower her status to marry into the man’s family? Your biological father is just a common farmer! Tell me, isn’t it funny?”

When she said this, her gaze didn’t seem like she was lying.

However, Shen Qianhui calmly replied, “Life is all equal, so what if he is a farmer or a common worker? Do you feel that your worth is higher than theirs? This is already the twenty-first century. The Great Qing Dynasty has long since been exterminated!”

She had never once wanted her parents to be from wealthy families. From the start to the end, what she wanted most was not to be abandoned by her parents.

When Shen Wanxian heard this, she sneered. “You are truly a bumpkin that grew up in a village, unable to transit to the real world. When you go to the capital, you will discover how one’s status would restrict oneself!”

She had worked hard in the capital for over two decades but was still unable to get into the circle of wealthy ladies. Wasn’t it simply because she didn’t have a good background?

Shen Wanxian cast another look of contempt at Shen Qianhui. “However, you most probably won’t be able to go to the capital your entire life. You are destined to lose to me no matter what in this life!”

Shen Qianhui’s gentle voice was like a knife slicing Shen Wanxian’s face. “Life has so many phases, let us wait and see.”

After saying this, she and Madam Yun no longer wanted to talk to this person and swiftly closed the iron gate.

Shen Wanxian was so angry that she was gnashing her teeth. She stared at the gate to the Yun Manor, and her eyes were filled with resentment and hatred. “Sooner or later, there will come a day when you guys will cry and beg for my return!”

Wen Yuyi stood behind her. “Mother, is what you said earlier real? Shen Qianhui’s father is really a farmer?’

Shen Wanxian sneered. “Naturally. If not, why do you think my god-mother didn’t get together with him? She acted elegant and pure on the surface, but she actually hated the poor and loved the rich.”

Hearing this, Wen Yuyi immediately felt much better in her heart. “So, what is Shen Ruojing acting so arrogant for? Her father is just a small-time celebrity and her grandfather is a farmer. How much better can she be when compared to me?”

The two of them consoled each other psychologically before turning and leaving via the car that their chauffeur drove.

–

After they left, the Yun Family finally regained their peace.

Yun Yiheng strode into his music room to research the [Coldness of Plum Blossoms], while Yun Wei was chatting shyly with Bai Xiaojiu as she hid away.

Shen Ruojing was the only one left on the second floor.

She continued to walk forward in boredom before she suddenly saw Chu Cichen.

The man stood there. His back was as straight and sharp as an arrow, and his short hair exuded the air of masculinity. The only thing that was incongruent with his external appearance was his pair of deep phoenix eyes.

Shen Ruojing walked over and said, “Thanks.”

Other than Captain Cui’s help, the reason why she could confirm the identity of Yun Xiu’s daughter was because Chu Cichen also got his people to interrogate Yun Xiu in Sea City.

If not, this matter wouldn’t be so quickly resolved.

Chu Cichen’s voice was low. “There’s no need for thanks between us.”

Just when Shen Ruojing wanted to say something, the man continued, “After all, you are the mother of our three children.”

“…”

In the past, she always used this sentence to tease him. Now, the situation had reversed.

Shen Ruojing blushed slightly, but her lips curled as she shifted the topic. “Is the Chu Corporation going to the capital to develop?”

Chu Cichen seriously explained, “Hmm, I have a reason why I must go there no matter what.”

Shen Ruojing didn’t seem interested in his reason. She touched her chin. “In that case…go for it?”

The four influential families controlled all the businesses there. It wouldn’t be easy if Chu Cichen wanted to gain a foothold there.

Chu Cichen smiled. “Sure.”

He didn’t look worried at all.

Shen Ruojing suppressed her curiosity and didn’t ask anything. She was already retired and it was impossible for her to help this little puppy-guy just because he wanted to venture into the capital. She must not be mesmerized by his good looks!

As she pondered, the man suddenly asked, “What do you want for breakfast tomorrow?”

“…” Shen Ruojing speechlessly looked at him. “You don’t have to keep running about for small matters like this. Just focus on your career.”

“Don’t worry, I will work hard for our future.”

Shen Ruojing was stunned. “What do you mean our future?”

Chu Cichen lowered his eyelids. “The Chu Corporation’s business has transformed into pharmaceuticals. It is all thanks to your medical pills that we succeeded, so I’ve transferred 30% of our corporation’s shares to your name. In addition, you are currently the person in charge of the research and development department.”

Shen Ruojing. “?”

She wanted to complain, but Chu Cichen already said, “It is just a title. You don’t have to do anything because Professor Charles will handle it, and he told me that he is fine with it because he is acquainted with you.”

“…”

He already said everything and this wouldn’t affect her retirement. Also, there were many cases where she only had empty titles. It didn’t matter if she had one more. Shen Ruojing could only pout and say, “Up to you then.”

In any case, the ones getting these inheritances in the future would be the three children.

“So, Jingjing, what do you want to eat for breakfast tomorrow?”

Shen Ruojing was helpless. “…anything.”

Her peach blossom eyes flickered with warmth, and the expression on her face was much softer compared to when she had rejected him. Chu Cichen’s heart was also faintly filled with joy because of this.

Since their memories were messed up and couldn’t match, he would simply pursue her until he succeeded.

Just as he contemplated, his phone suddenly rang. Chu Cichen nodded to Shen Ruojing before picking up the call. “What’s the matter?”

Lu Cheng’s voice rang out from the opposite end. “Boss, I’ve investigated the matter that happened between you and Lord Jing six years ago.”

When Chu Cichen heard this, his eyes narrowed.

He subconsciously looked at Shen Ruojing and pursed his lips before taking two steps back. “Speak.”
