Chapter 716: The Mole Is Him!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Shen Ruojing arrived in China, and the helicopter landed at the airport in the capital. As soon as she got off the plane, she saw Chu Cichen with their three children waiting to pick her up. At the first glance, she already noticed something off.
Chu Xiaomeng, who Song Chen abducted, seemed different. She was no longer as introverted as before. Her big eyes always flicked toward Chu Cichen from time to time, and when Chu Cichen looked back, she would give him a sweet smile. It was a bit foolish, but it was clear that she was trying to please him.
After Chu Cichen rescued Chu Xiaomeng, their father-daughter relationship should be warming up, shouldn’t it? What happened?
She glanced at Chu Cichen and saw him arrogantly lifting his chin without saying a word. She then turned her gaze to Chu Xiaomeng, who was also looking at her, and awkwardly squeezed out a smile.
Shen Ruojing.”…”
After getting into the car with everyone, it was Chu Tianye who stealthily moved closer and whispered in her ear, “Mommy, let me tell you, little sister has upset Daddy! I taught her to smile at Daddy. What do you think?”
Shen Ruojing twitched her mouth. She thought to herself, how could Chu Xiaomeng know how to please people? Yet, while she inwardly criticized her own daughter, she still glared at Chu Cichen.
How could a grown man be so petty to a five-year-old child? Also, how could the innocent Xiaomeng have done anything wrong? Shen Ruojing thought to herself. After that, her gaze toward Chu Cichen became even less friendly.
Then she heard Chu Cichen say quietly. “When I went to pick up our daughter, she said she didn’t want to come home because she had to practice writing.” Shen Ruojing.”???”
She immediately turned to look at Chu Xiaomeng. Her gaze made Chu Xiaomeng want to cry but couldn’t. The little girl had always tried various ways to slack off, and now for the sake of not practicing writing, she didn’t even want to come home after being kidnapped? This was outrageous!
Seemingly aware of her mother’s rage, Chu Xiaomeng nervously looked at her.
She then remembered what Chu Tianye had told her. She slowly, slowly, cracked a fake smile on her face, just like the one she had given Chu Cichen earlier.
Shen Ruojing.”…”
She couldn’t help reaching out and pinching her daughter’s face. “Your smile is too fake.”
Chu Xiaomeng immediately looked at Chu Tianye subconsciously. This was what her big brother Tianye had taught her!
Chu Tianye also sighed in resignation. (You are supposed to act cute, not to sell smiles, okay?! It’s unbelievable!)
Chu Yu was quietly rubbing his forehead next to them, sympathizing with his sister.
Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen, of course, weren’t really angry with their daughter. They just wanted to use this opportunity to teach her that in front of life, everything else had to take a backseat.
They were worried that in the future, Chu Xiaomeng might prioritize books over life.
Seeing her daughter trying so hard to smile, Shen Ruojing eventually pinched her little face and said, “Alright.”
Chu Xiaomeng immediately breathed a sigh of relief and put away her smile. Her face was sore from smiling!
Finally, the family happily headed toward the Chu Manor.
Shen Ruojing then put the three little ones in the back seat of the car before she turned to Chu Cichen and said, “Before I came back to the country, Jing Yi’s wife told me that there are people from the Karl family in China.”
Chu Cichen nodded. “This isn’t surprising. The Karl family has been infiltrating China for so many years, so how could they not have people here? Moreover, don’t forget that the Doom Organization has always wanted your father’s patent. So over the years, they must have spread their network throughout China!”
After saying this, he noticed something and asked directly, “Do you have any suspicions?”
Shen Ruojing silently sighed. She suddenly turned to Chu Cichen and asked directly, “Have you investigated Dr. Xu?”
“I have.” Chu Cichen replied, “His background is very simple. Because he is from a side branch of the Xu family, his generation no longer receives dividends from the main family. Both his parents are honest people, and he completed his bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees consecutively.”
After a pause, Chu Cichen added hesitantly, “In country Y.”
Shen Ruojing immediately looked at him. She hadn’t known about the connection between Song Chen’s Doom Organization and country Y before, but now she did. So this fact couldn’t help but make her suspicious. She tensed her jaw and suddenly felt a bit sad.
Shen Ruojing hesitated and lowered her head. Seeing this, Chu Cichen immediately caught her emotions and reached out to hold her hand.
Shen Ruojing sighed silently. “Are you sure?”
Chu Cichen nodded. “There’s no concrete evidence, but I’m basically sure it’s him.”
Shen Ruojing had always known that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. From the time Dr. Xu mysteriously appeared and treated Rong Rong in a special way, Shen Ruojing already doubted his intentions. Even before returning to the country this time, she was imagining that it couldn’t be Dr. Xu.
But since Chu Cichen said so, it was likely to be true. The infiltrator from the Karl family and Doom Organization in the country was indeed Dr. Xu.
Hence, she didn’t go home and had the car take her directly to find Rong Rong. No matter what, getting Rong Rong away from Dr. Xu was the most important thing. She couldn’t let Rong Rong stay with such a person with dubious intentions.
But what Shen Ruojing didn’t expect was….
