Chapter 885 - You are Xia Ruoxin
Chapter 885: You are Xia Ruoxin
“Xiaohua.”
He said again.
“Lu Xiaohua, Lu Xiaohua.”
No one replied.
“Xia Ruoxin.”
His lips curved up slightly, and there was something cold but meaningful about the words he spat out.
“Hm?” Instinctively, Xia Ruoxin raised her head and stared straight into his eyes.
“Hehe…” Lu Jinrong smiled and extended his hand to ruffle her hair like in the past.
“You knew?” Xia Ruoxin did not have the nervousness of getting exposed. It did not matter who she was and who she was not as she was originally not the Lu family’s Missy.
“I suspected it when I saved you, but I confirmed it today.”
“How did you know?” Xia Ruoxin gently caressed her face. At that point, she had already become like that; and she did not even recognize himself. How did he know? No wonder Lu Jinrong was not surprised at all and could yell out her name.
When they came home, Lu Jinrong brought Xia Ruoxin to his study and opened his drawer. He took out a box and passed it to Xia Ruoxin.
“This is yours, right? Back then, the doctor gave me two things. One was the thing I hung around your neck, and the other one was here.”
Xia Ruoxin gently touched her neck. It was the safety amulet. It was not that she was still reminiscing about the past, but she wanted her to remember the ones that hurt her. Even if she turned into a fierce ghost, she would come back to take revenge.
She took the box from Lu Jinrong’s hands and opened it. It was her ring, the ring that Chu Lui gave her.
“Chu Lui got me to help him buy this pink diamond ring.” Lu Jinrong stood up and placed his hands in his pocket before leaning against his work table.
“It’s worth a billion dollars so I remembered it very clearly. I once asked him who he was giving it to, and he said his wife. Then, I was the one who found a designer to place the pink diamond on this ring. There’s only one in the world and no fakes at all. It’s also designed according to your ring size. Back then, the designer said that the ring size was very small; and the woman with the ring must have small fingers. For an average person, the ring could only fit on their pinkie.”
Such an expensive ring would definitely not be thrown anywhere, and it would not be found on any other woman.
“Back then, you were coincidentally wearing this ring on your ring finger. This is the real product, and it was the one I passed to Chu Lui so I did suspect that you were Xia Ruoxin back then. Honestly, I’ve only met you once. If you ask me what kind of impression I had on you, it was only pitiful. As for the others, I have forgotten about it so I only suspected and never checked on it. However, after meeting Chu Lui and seeing the sharpness that I don’t normally see, I knew that I might have guessed it correctly.”
“Xiaohua.” Lu Xiaohua did not call her Xia Ruoxin, but Lu Xiaohua.
“I don’t care what kind of person you were, but I know that I saved you. You’re my sister—Lu Xiaohua. Thank you for treating my parents like your own and for doing everything for us. If you want revenge, I’ll help you.”
“It’s okay, Brother.” Xia Ruoxin placed the ring on the table. “I want to exact some revenge myself.” She did not want to drag Lu Jinrong and Chu Lui together. Women’s revenge need not involve money, and her revenge target was not Chu Lui—it was another person.
She understood really well that it was not that easy between two business corporations of equal standing. In the end—if it was not he who died, they would instead; and both of them would be hurt in the end. She did not want Lu Jinrong to take this risk. She would take revenge in her own ways. Xia Yixuan killed her, but Chu Lui was the accomplice. She would definitely make their days uneasy, and none of them could escape from it.
This was her everything after climbing out from hell. She did all of that to get justice for herself.
Lu Jinrong patted her shoulders. “Okay, I understand. If you need anything, you can tell me anytime.”
“Thank you, Brother. I know.”
Xia Ruoxin touched the safety amulet around her neck, and her red lips curved up; however, in her eyes, there was sadness that could never go away.
…
Lu Jinrong flipped the documents with one hand and used his other to tap a pen on the table lightly.
“Mm, this is it. I want to transfer my sister over to your side and let her work for a while so that she can gain knowledge. My company… you should know that my company isn’t too convenient. The girl’s temper has been spoiled by my family, and she’s very unreasonable at times. Even though she doesn’t have much work experience—believe me, she is pretty capable.”
When he ended the call, he also put his pen down.
Just that after he made the call, he started to regret it a little. He did not know if he was doing the right thing and if it was a good idea. However, since he had promised his sister, he could only do it.
He would not stop Xia Ruoxin from taking revenge, but he could pull her back when it got dangerous.
Besides, the main point was that he believed Chu Lui had feelings for Xiaohua. His confidence came from that ring and Chu Lui’s change over the past few years.
He just hoped that his thinking was right. If not…
…
Xia Ruoxin stood in front of the Chu Enterprise building.
She looked up, and the building in front of her seemed to rise all the way towards the sky. It was Chu Lui’s new commercial building which increased from eighteen levels to twenty-eight levels. The things that changed about him were not only the ten levels in between.
She walked in.
“Hello.” The pretty receptionist walked over. “May I know why you’re here?”
They changed to someone new. Xia Ruoxin’s red lips curved up as she took out something from her bag and passed it forward. “This is my work appointment letter.”
The receptionist took the letter and had confirmed that it was their company’s appointment letter. It seemed like she came from another company and held a high position as the CEO’s special assistant.
Just that, the CEO already had an assistant and a secretary. With another one now, how would the work be coordinated?
However, this kind of thing did not concern a small employee like her. Her only job was to bring the person up.
The elevator directly reached the twenty-eighth level. Xia Ruoxin folded her arms. The elevator had a transparent viewing, and the glass inside reflected her face. Even now, she was still a stranger to her face.
The lady in front brought her to the twenty-eighth level. Unsurprisingly, Chu Lui’s secretary did not change. It was still Secretary Xiao Chen, but there was only her.
Xia Ruoxin knew that Chu Lui wanted this type of person. At the very least, the first point when working beside him was that she could not have ideas on him.
