I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

220 Understanding

“...”

The atmosphere in the car turned silent.

The lamps from the cars in the distance shone over and they drove in this direction. The light illuminated Shen Ruojing’s face, which had a mixture of shock and astonishment on it.

Shen Ruojing’s lips were slowly pressed into thin lines. It was as though she didn’t know what to say.

527 actually loved 518?

In the organization, although she did indeed treat Dugu Xiao and 527 as her friends, they were only companions. She had never felt any sort of love toward this ‘young master’.

So, how could that be possible?

She frowned.

And at this moment, Chu Cichen’s phone rang.

He took a glance and chose to pick it up. After that, Dugu Xiao’s cold and gloomy voice rang out from the other end, “Chu Cichen, are you sure you want to protect her? Have you forgotten 518’s wish?!”

The man’s voice was sharp. It seemed as though Dugu Xiao was extremely infuriated because Chu Cichen had agreed to stand at the side but still interfered.

Chu Cichen glanced at Shen Ruojing before hanging up the call directly.

The phone rang again, so he simply turned on silent mode.

Currently, the most important thing was to clear everything up with Shen Ruojing.

Chu Cichen spoke in a low voice, “I don’t know why I don’t remember you, nor you me. But I can be sure that there is no problem with my memory. 518, I confessed to you before and you agreed.”

She agreed?

What did she agree to?

Shen Ruojing wasn’t able to recall when she agreed on this no matter how hard she tried.

Chu Cichen didn’t lose his memories, and she also didn’t.

So what was going on exactly?

Just as she was pondering, her hand was suddenly grabbed by Chu Cichen.

The man’s warm large hand tightly held hers. Her gaze was resolute as he said, “518, since you didn’t die. Why didn’t you contact me?”

“…”

Shen Ruojing wanted to pull her hand away, but when she exerted force slightly, the man increased his strength as well.

Shen Ruojing lowered her eyelids and coldly spoke, “Mr. Chu. Release me first.”

“No.” Chu Cichen’s gaze was like a torch. No one could understand his surprise at this moment. The feeling of regaining joy after a loss caused him to be persistent and obstinate. “I will never let go of your hand again.”

Shen Ruojing’s lips twitched. “Please respect yourself.”

However, Chu Cichen continued, “Jingjing, you birthed three children for me. Even more intimate stuff compared to holding hands has happened between us. What do you mean by respecting myself?”

Shen Ruojing. “?”

F*ck!

This man used the words she had spoken before to stump her.

The familiarity of this scene would cause everyone to feel that these two people had their roles swapped.

Shen Ruojing stretched out her other hand that was free and fiercely poked an acupoint on his wrist. Chu Cichen immediately felt like he had lost all strength in that hand. Shen Ruojing then took the chance to retract her hand.

Chu Cichen still wanted to hold her hand, but Shen Ruojing’s gaze suddenly became cold. “Mr. Chu, if you try touching me again, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Chu Cichen. “...”

Shen Ruojing looked at him. “I don’t know what happened in the past and I also have no idea why there is such a situation now. However, I said it before. You are not him.”

Her man would never disdain her.

He would only hug her tightly and tell her that everything had passed. They should wait for the arrival of dawn.

However, Chu Cichen didn’t remember the beautiful times when he had led her out of the darkness.

Shen Ruojing was never someone with a good temper. As a boss of many industries, she had the capital to be proud. It had always been others begging for her help.

During these years, she was only tolerant of Chu Cichen.

Hence, when Chu Cichen didn’t remember her and forcefully pushed her away, she didn’t blame him.

She had brought the children and stayed in the Chu Manor because she had thought to herself that if he accepted her, maybe they could be together even if he didn’t remember their past.

But all of these vanished when Chu Cichen uttered those venomous words to her.

“You are not worthy of being forgiven.”

That sentence hurt her more than any weapon in the world could have.

Chu Cichen could sense her resistance. He hurriedly explained, “Jingjing, in the past, I only uttered those idiotic words because I thought you died to the No. 5 Neurotoxin. I…”

Before he could complete his sentence, Shen Ruojing looked at him and interjected, “In that case, have you remembered the past events I told you about?”

Chu Cichen started.

He shook his head.

Shen Ruojing then continued, “Before you remember them, we should maintain a distance.”

The one she loved was the Chu Cichen who led her out of the darkness and not 527 from the organization.

On the other hand, what he loved was 518 from the organization and not Shen Ruojing.

She didn’t want to offer her heart to him one-sidedly and get trampled upon.

During these few days, Shen Ruojing had never shown a sad expression, but even Chu Tianye could sense how despondent she was. Some people would cry or complain if they were unhappy. But if she was unhappy, she would only become quiet.

Although she didn’t mention some things, it didn’t mean that she wasn’t sad.

If there was a misunderstanding between the two of them and a dead knot in their hearts, didn’t that mean that Chu Cichen could just casually push her away again?

So, before some things were made clear, she would not offer her heart.

Chu Cichen was dumbfounded.

His mouth opened and closed as he wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what he should say…

As he was hesitating, Shen Ruojing spoke, “Send me back. I’m tired.”

The woman radiated a feeling of rejection and distance, and this caused Chu Cichen to feel that his heart was being clenched ruthlessly. He then recalled how she appeared when she took that step back and recalled the harsh venomous words he had told her. Her silhouette then gradually moved further and further away…

Chu Cichen suddenly panicked.

Would Shen Ruojing ever forgive him…?

He didn’t wish to separate from her like this, but he was also afraid that if he forcefully got near, it would only push her further away.

Chu Cichen pondered for a moment before deciding to start the car and get back on the road. On their way back, he held onto his final bit of hope. “If you don’t want to expose your identity, Dugu Xiao will not spare you easily. I’ll send people to protect you…”

As the sound of his words rang out, he heard Shen Ruojing saying. “No need, I’ve dealt with this matter.”

Chu Cichen stared at her in astonishment. “This matter is dealt with?”

“Hmm.” Shen Ruojing composedly spoke, “I just called the police. Dugu Xiao owns illegal firearms, so the country will send out an arrest warrant.”

Chu Cichen’s dash cam recorded the entire process of how Dugu Xiao fired at him. Shen Ruojing just sent the evidence to Captain Cui, and Captain Cui immediately got people to apply for the warrant. Now, he was already in Fort City trying to capture Dugu Xiao.

It was impossible for Dugu Xiao to cooperate with the investigation, so it was destined that he would not dare to appear so brazenly again.

Either he would slink away like a defeated dog or he would hide like a rat underground.

Chu Cichen nodded, feeling that this method of handling things was a little familiar.

As this thought appeared in his mind, he heard the woman calmly saying. “I learned it from you.”

Chu Cichen. “...”

The atmosphere in the car returned to silence.

One could only hear the noise of the car being driven.

The two of them no longer spoke.

Very soon, they returned to the entrance of the Yun Manor. As expected, Dugu Xiao was no longer here.

Shen Ruojing calmly pushed the car door open and got out. She then walked toward the Yun Manor.

But just after two steps, Chu Cichen suddenly chased after her.

His voice was low as he anxiously spoke, “I understand now. I know why you cannot remember me!”
