Chapter 350 - 350 Lord Jing Shielding The Weak
350 Lord Jing Shielding The Weak
After Shen Ruojing heard this, she lowered her eyes for a moment.
Yun Yiheng was clearly treated kindly, and no one here dared to bully him. From this, it seemed that Old Master Shen was a magnanimous person and didn’t implicate Yun Yiheng because of Shen Wanying’s matter.
She had accompanied Yun Yiheng here because she was afraid he might be bullied.
Now that Yun Yiheng was fine, Chu Cichen on the other hand…
When she thought of this, Shen Ruojing spoke, “Go on ahead, I’ll go accompany Chu Cichen.”
Yun Yiheng also knew that his cousin-in-law would be deliberately targeted today. He nodded and just when the butler was about to leave, Chu Cichen called out to Yun Yiheng.
Yun Yiheng turned his head and heard Chu Cichen saying, “You are just here to play the zither for Old Master Shen. You don’t have to care about anything else.”
Yun Yiheng immediately understood his meaning.
He originally planned to complain about this to Old Master Shen, but from his cousin’s words, it seemed that Chu Cichen didn’t want to implicate him?
Yun Yiheng tensed his lips, but he eventually agreed. “Alright.”
Business was business, playing the zither was playing the zither.
These were two different matters. It was indeed not apt to speak of this to Old Master Shen.
Yun Yiheng was led away politely by Old Master Shen’s butler. The remaining three stood at the entrance and saw the servant that Shen Zhong had sent over. He was smiling at them and said, “Mr. Chu, I’m sorry. Mr. Shen is currently in an international meeting, so I’m afraid the three of you might have to wait a little.”
After that, he added, “In addition, there are many people in the manor, so it isn’t suitable for you all to run around. It wouldn’t be good if you guys bumped into any of the little young masters.”
His meaning was clear. They were supposed to stand here and wait!
After saying that, the servant directly left.
This place was near the entrance and many servants were moving around. Moreover, many other guests were also walking around, so the three of them felt very awkward standing there.
Lu Cheng glanced at the people in the surroundings and was infuriated. “Bro Chen, why do we have to endure their nonsense?! This is simply too much!”
Shen Ruojing tensed her chin, and a hint of coldness could be seen in her clear peach blossom eyes.
She looked at Chu Cichen.
This man who had always been proud had his phoenix eyes lowered at this moment. He then spoke in a low voice, “Back in the Sea City, we are number one and others are begging us for our help. But things are different in the capital.”
Lu Cheng’s lips twitched.
How were things different? If Bro Chen revealed his true identity, even Old Master Shen would have to receive him sincerely and with respect.
In addition, overseas, they had also encountered obstinate people before. Anything could be settled if they barged head-on with their current power.
Or could it be that Bro Chen wanted to act like a bullied little bunny before Lord Jing?
Lu Cheng tactfully didn’t comment on this.
As expected, once Bro Chen said that, Lord Jing’s gaze changed.
Shen Ruojing indeed felt heartache for Chu Cichen.
Back then, no matter whether it was overseas or in China, Chu Cichen had always been imposing. She had never thought that he would encounter a setback at work.
Now. she faintly felt some anger in her heart.
After pondering, Chu Cichen spoke, “Jingjing, the Shen Family has such a large pond. When the lotuses bloom in summer, it will surely be a very beautiful sight. You can fish here as well. In the future, we will build one for our home.”
Shen Ruojing loved fishing and her eyes brightened after hearing this. After thinking about the land size of the Chu Manor, there was indeed space to install a pond. Hence, she nodded.
After the two of them finished talking about this, a cold snort rang out from the side. So, the two turned their heads and saw a young woman in her twenties walking out of a room.
This woman bore a 30% resemblance to Shen Wanying, but she was more arrogant in comparison. Her chin was lifted slightly as she spoke arrogantly, “What big words, simply ignorant! Do you even know how much we spent to construct this lake-size pond or how long we have to maintain it? Do you know that this pond alone needs three servants to clean it? You think this is a pond similar to the one in your lowly villages?”
After she said this, she saw Chu Cichen and Shen Ruojing turning over.
At the instant they turned, her eyes brightened as she spotted Chu Cichen.
Her gaze was fixed on Chu Cichen, with undisguised awe and admiration within. Her earlier arrogance vanished completely as she asked him, “Who are you? Why have I never met you in the capital before?”
However, Chu Cichen’s attitude was cold. He ignored her.
The servant beside the girl immediately replied, “Fifth young miss, they are here to beg your eldest uncle for something.”
The fifth young miss was named Shen Jiayi, and she belonged to the second house. Four of her elder female cousins had been married and she was the only one of suitable age left. Hence, although her personality was a little arrogant, she had many pursuers in the capital.
Just like the saying goes, as long as a family has a beautiful girl, she would have no lack of suitors.
Those who could marry her would become part of the Shen Family and immediately soar to the skies. And because Shen Yuansong had no biological granddaughter, her current status was similar to a princess in ancient times.
Shen Jiayi immediately replied after hearing the servant’s words, “Is uncle busy? Do you need me to help you guys call him?”
Chu Cichen remained aloof and directly held Shen Ruojing’s hands. “No need. Me and my wife will just wait here for a little more.”
Wife?
Shen Jiayi’s expression immediately changed.
She angrily turned around and departed.
The servant hurriedly followed behind her. “Miss fifth, please don’t be angry. I think they didn’t know what’s good for them and had no idea about your identity! It can already be considered their fortune that you deigned to speak with them!”
As they spoke, they walked further away.
After some time, Shen Jiayu suddenly halted and turned her head again. She bit her lips as she looked at Chu Cichen in the distance.
She had lived so many years in the capital and had never met such a handsome guy before. He was even more handsome than celebrities! After thinking for a bit, she spoke to the servant, “Do an investigation and check his family situation. Find out his identity too.”
The servant. “…Okay.”
Chu Cichen, who had no idea he was being surveyed, had his eyes on his hands that were holding Shen Ruojing’s. His lips curled into a smile.
Shen Ruojing. “…She has already left.”
“But what if she returns? After all, there are many people moving around here.”
Shen Ruojing. “…”
She twitched her lips and glanced at the time again. Shen Zhong had actually made them wait for over an hour!
In this cold weather, it was simply too much that he made them stand outside.
Usually, they would either be in the car or in their rooms. The houses in the capital had warmers after all. Hence, they had too few clothes on right now as they didn’t expect to wait outside in such weather. Lu Cheng only had a thin shirt and a suit on. He was so cold that he was jumping around as he scolded, “They are simply bullying us!”
Shen Ruojing’s constitution was good, so she didn’t feel cold at all.
Chu Cichen’s large hand that was holding hers was warm as well. He was evidently fine too.
However, how could they allow others to bully them like this?!
Shen Ruojing coldly laughed and dragged Chu Cichen along as she strode with large steps into the living room.
Shen Yuansong was at home. She wanted to blow this matter up and let Shen Yuansong see how Shen Zhong handled things!
