Although Shen Ruojing didn’t get to see the patient, she wasn’t angry about being stood up.
When she was about to leave the clinic and return to the Shen family, she paused for a moment and looked in a nearby direction where a car was parked in the darkness.
She quickly averted her gaze and then a Maybach stopped next to her.
Chu Cichen was sitting in the driver’s seat, looking at her. “Jingjing, get in the car.”
Shen Ruojing nodded and got in. As they drove away, Chu Cichen also glanced at that black car through the rearview mirror.
It was inconspicuous, but as soon as his Maybach turned, the other car started up.
Inside the car, Leng Ling coldly stared ahead.
In the back seat, Dugu Xiao was lying down and asked nervously, “Has 518 left?”
Leng Ling replied calmly, “Still watching you.”
Dugu Xiao was scared and buried his head even deeper.
He was afraid of being found out and said, “I’m afraid the Queen of Country A will send someone to kidnap her, which is their usual style, so we need to protect her.”
Leng Ling sarcastically said, “Oh, I thought you wanted to find a chance to kill Miss Shen.”
Dugu Xiao didn’t say anything, but they continued to follow Shen Ruojing.
Soon, they watched Shen Ruojing return to the Shen family. Dugu Xiao and Leng Ling also arrived outside the Shen family’s residence.
Leng Ling asked, “Will you continue to keep watch tonight?”
Dugu Xiao nodded and said, “Turn up the air conditioning.”
It was still very cold outside.
Leng Ling warned, “Parking and turning on the air conditioning can easily cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Are you sure?”
Dugu Xiao. “…”
–
Shen Manor.
After the Maybach was parked in the parking lot, Chu Cichen and Shen Ruojing exited the car and walked toward the residence.
Along the way, Chu Cichen coughed and said, “That was Dugu Xiao just now.”
“I know,” Shen Ruojing said coldly.
Chu Cichen fell silent for a moment and then spoke again, “Back then, he didn’t want to kill you. He just wanted to seize power to save his mother.”
Shen Ruojing remained silent for a moment before nodding again.
Then she suddenly spoke, “Do you know the meaning of our code numbers that indicate the order in which we joined the organization?
Chu Cichen nodded. “Yes.’
Then he smiled. “My number is 527, which means ‘I love my wife’.”
Shen Ruojing nodded. “Hmm, mine is 518, which means ‘I want to be rich.’
Chu Cichen laughed. “Dugu Xiao’s number is 517, which means ‘I want to eat’. We even made fun of him back then about how he ended up with the ‘I want to eat’ code number.”
Shen Ruojing smiled wryly. “When we joined the organization and were lining up to register, I deliberately crouched down and tied my shoelaces when I saw the person in front of me was number 516. That was how Dugu Xiao registered first.’
Chu Cichen’s expression darkened slightly when he heard this. He knew that Shen Ruojing had forgiven Dugu Xiao for his past mistake.
After all, Dugu Xiao had set a bomb with the intention of killing her. But now, Shen Ruojing no longer minded it.
Chu Cichen felt happy for her.
Letting go of the past was necessary for a better future.
Besides, the three of them had always been friends. After 518 faked her death, Chu Cichen couldn’t believe that Dugu Xiao had really acted against her, so he didn’t immediately seek revenge but instead investigated the cause of 518’s death.
All three of them knew that 518 couldn’t have died in an explosion. So Shen Ruojing set another trap, and she died under the effects of the No.5 Neurotoxin. This way, Dugu Xiao wouldn’t have to feel guilty…
But she didn’t expect that both Chu Cichen and Dugu Xiao wanted to avenge her, which caused them to become enemies when they met again.
Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen went upstairs, and each went to their own rooms to sleep.
The next morning, Shen Ruojing was awakened by the noise outside. When she went downstairs, she saw that the living room was in a mess.
Third Madam Shen and Shen Tingyan were standing there, glaring at Matriarch Xu.
Matriarch Xu yelled at them, “What’s the point of dragging on without getting a divorce? Do you still want to waste my son’s time? You have delayed him for three years. Until now, our Xu family still has no heir. Are you trying to cause our Xu family to be extinct?”
Hearing this, Shen Tingyan bit her lip as her eyes turned red, and Third Madam Shen supported her. “Matriarch Xu, don’t talk nonsense! Who is responsible for the infertility problem has not been determined yet. Don’t accuse my daughter!”
After hearing this, Matriarch Xu sneered and shouted at Third Madam Shen, ‘Yesterday’s examination report and Dr. Zhang’s diagnosis results cannot explain the problem? Why do you insist that we go to that testing agency for an examination? Are you trying to manipulate something? Everyone knows that the Shen family in the capital has supreme power in the medical field!”
Shen Ruojing frowned and slowly went downstairs. Now, Third Madam Shen was angry with Matriarch Xu’s accusations and said, “But we also had an examination, and there is no problem with Shen Tingyan’s body!”
Matriarch Xu responded, “Dr. Zhang checked Shen Tingyan’s pulse and we went to see him ourselves. Dr. Zhang personally said that she indeed has the cold womb syndrome!”
Third Madam Shen was furious. “We’re all women, who wouldn’t have some coldness in our wombs? Don’t use this to belittle us! Divorce is possible, but Tingyan cannot be left with nothing! This kind of compensation for the divorce is unacceptable!”
If they divorced like this, how could Shen Tingyan still face people in the capital in the future?
Matriarch Xu sighed. “Then what do you want?”
Third Madam Shen bit her lip and angrily suggested, “Since you can’t prove that Xu Hao is not the problem, and I cannot prove that Tingyan has no problem, why don’t our families sit down and have a normal discussion about the divorce…”
As soon as she finished speaking, the butler ran in from outside with Xu Hao and a young woman.. Xu Hao supported the woman’s arm and said, “Shen Tingyan, Little Yang is pregnant with my child which shows that there is nothing wrong with my body!”
