Chapter 729:1 Will Always Accompany You
Translator: Lordbluefire
Chu Cichen knew that Shen Ruojing was extremely angry at this moment.
But he understood. After witnessing the wedding of Dr. Xu and Rong Rong, he was also filled with anger.
He had always been a man of his word, so he and Shen Ruojing assumed that Song Chen, the one who had inherited his memory as his clone, was also the same.
They had never considered that Song Chen would go back on his word, turning someone’s wedding into a funeral…
But letting Shen Ruojing go to Country Y?
Country Y was now under the control of the Karl family. If she went there alone, it would be too dangerous.
However, Chu Cichen knew he couldn’t dissuade her, so he remained silent for a moment before saying, “Jingjing, you’re not suited to go to Country Y right now.”
Shen Ruojing shot him a fierce look. The murderous intent in her peach blossom eyes was overwhelming Chu Cichen. But even so, he still said, “We are still not sure of Miss Rong’s condition after she wakes up. What if she needs your help?”
Shen Ruojing clenched her jaw.
Chu Cichen continued persuasively, “I know that nothing I say right now can dispel the hatred in your heart, but instead of seeking revenge, we should focus on protecting Rong Rong and finding a way to save Dr. Xu’s parents.”
Shen Ruojing took a deep breath.
She understood all the words Chu Cichen said, but the desire for revenge was ignited in her heart when Rong Rong, before fainting, had held her hand and asked her to avenge her.
She wished she could execute Song Chen on the spot!
Was she supposed to endure it?
How could she endure it?
But Chu Cichen’s words suppressed her anger, and Shen Ruojing’s mind finally cleared a bit.
She looked back at Rong Rong, who was still lying in the hospital room, and finally took a deep breath. “Let him have some more peaceful time. I will definitely settle this account with him!”
After saying this, she looked at Chu Cichen again and asked, “Have you arranged for someone to take care of Dr. Xu’s parents?”
Chu Cichen immediately nodded. “After the incident, I sent people to look for them in Country Y, and some clues have been found. According to eyewitnesses, Dr. Xu’s parents already boarded the plane, but then they were taken off the plane…”
Shen Ruojing frowned and cursed, “It must have been Song Chen who changed his mind at the last minute and held them back.”
At this moment, she regretted trusting Song Chen too much.
If only she had been more cautious and let Chu Cichen or her people take charge of Dr. Xu’s parents and escort them back to China, wouldn’t everything have ended better?
Sadly, there were no ifs in this world.
Perhaps sensing Shen Ruojing’s thoughts, Chu Cichen said after a moment of silence, “Actually, I was worried about Dr. Xu’s parents and had people accompany them.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruojing immediately looked at Chu Cichen. “And then?”
Chu Cichen sighed quietly, “They watched the two board the plane and planned to send a message back. But just when the plane was about to take off, Dr. Xu’s parents were suddenly taken away. The two of them then had their phones confiscated, unable to contact anyone. They were on the plane without any signal…”
When the plane finally landed in China, the two managed to contact Chu Cichen, but it was already too late.
Chu Cichen continued. “They said that there were so many people there, including a lot of people from the royal family of Country Y. Even if you and I had arranged for people to pick them up, it wouldn’t have worked.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruojing quickly understood something. “Did the Karl family also interfere in this matter?”
Chu Cichen nodded again.
Shen Ruojing furrowed her brows. “So, Song Chen and Karl have gotten involved again?”
Chu Cichen’s phone rang at that exact moment.
He answered the call, and after hearing something from the other end, Chu Cichen furrowed his brows. After a while, he hung up the phone and looked at Shen Ruojing. “I just got a new update. Song Chen indeed is with Karl again. They caught him on video dining with Karl…”
Chu Cichen opened the video in his email and showed it to Shen Ruojing.
In the video, Song Chen and Karl were sitting in a Western restaurant, toasting glasses, apparently celebrating something.
Karl seemed to be unhappy, but his mood seemed to have improved after Song Chen said something.
Seeing this scene, Shen Ruojing clenched her fist tightly and chuckled coldly, “So, after having a fallout with Karl over Xiaomeng, Song Chen is now using Dr. Xu as a peace offering to make up with Karl?”
Chu Cichen didn’t say anything.
Shen Ruojing held the phone tightly.
She had thought that Song Chen wasn’t that bad… because she believed that Chu Cichen had a strong sense of justice deep inside, so she had always seen Song Chen through a sort of filter.
But now, she knew she was wrong.
Horribly wrong.
She was responsible for the death of Dr. Xu and the misery of Sister Rong’s future life.
She then lowered her head in pain and covered her face.
Chu Cichen put his hand on her shoulder.
His warm, dry hand gave a strong sense of security, like he was trying to impart strength to Shen Ruojing.
After a while, Shen Ruojing raised her head. The irrational rage and helplessness had disappeared from her eyes, leaving only rationality.
She held back her tears, her eyes red.
Shen Ruojing took a deep breath and finally spoke, “Cichen, do you know what I’m thinking?”
Chu Cichen shook his head.
Shen Ruojing began, “I’m thinking, this time it’s Dr. Xu and Sister Rong, but who will it be next time? Are our friends and relatives just destined to be this unlucky? To face danger just because of a patent?”
Chu Cichen clenched his jaw. “The few close relatives in China all have the means to protect themselves, and I’ve already called all the Chu family members back. Those who really don’t want to return will be allowed to live under false names and given the best protection.”
Shen Ruojing waved her hand. “That’s not a solution. Who can keep a thief away forever?”
Chu Cichen paused. “You mean…”
“We must strike back! Whether it’s the Karl family or the Doom Organization! If we are destined not to coexist, then there’s only one choice – we will wipe them all out!”
A strong murderous intent could be seen in Shen Ruojing’s eyes.
This was an intensity that Chu Cichen had never seen before.
But this was the real Shen Ruojing, the decisive and ruthless 518, the leader of the Dark Web Organization!
Before this, she had just hidden her identity, hoping to retire and live quietly in seclusion. But now, this fierce tiger had finally awakened.
Looking steadily at Shen Ruojing, Chu Cichen suddenly smiled, his voice firm. “Alright, Jingjing, no matter what you want to do, even if it involves climbing mountains or diving into the sea, I will accompany you..”
