I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack Novel - Chapter 424
424 Mysterious
Song Chen sighed and lowered his head. “Through cosmetic surgery.”
Shen Ruojing lifted her brows and looked at Chu Cichen. Seeing no change in his expression, she wondered if this answer was within his guess, or he was angry but not showing it.
However, she had long since guessed this.
Other than cosmetic surgery, how could someone look identical to another person?
Shen Ruojing continued to ask, “Even if it is surgery, it should be impossible for you to look so alike to him.”
!!
He looked exactly the same as Chu Cichen did six years ago.
At this moment, Chu Cichen’s gaze was deep, but his eyes were filled with the look of scrutiny and suspicion.
When he knew that someone was impersonating him, he was very puzzled.
Even for identical twins, there would still be differences after they grew up. Outsiders might not be able to tell, but those familiar with the twins would surely be able to differentiate them.
Due to this, Chu Cichen felt a bit of jealousy in his heart and thought that Shen Ruojing didn’t love him enough. Otherwise, after dating Song Chen for half a year in the country, why wasn’t she able to tell the difference between Song Chen and him?
Now after seeing Song Chen, he finally understood why.
Song Chen resembled him way too much.
Let alone Shen Ruojing, if Song Chen didn’t put on such a weak expression, even Chu Cichen would think that he must have gone back in time six years ago!
Hence, he placed Shen Ruojing’s question in very high regard.
Song Chen lowered his head and sighed. “Actually, my original appearance also resembles Chu Ci…Mr. Chu a lot. The cosmetic surgery only adjusted a few things. So, after I returned to my original life, no one around me felt like anything was wrong.”
Shen Ruojing frowned. “Your original appearance resembled him?”
Song Chen nodded. “There are over seven billion people in the world, and China alone holds 1.4 billion. Many ordinary people resemble celebrities, so there would definitely be people who resemble others even if they are not blood-related. It is also because of this point that they chose me and gave me and Little Mi the chance to continue living.”
He looked at Shen Ruojing with apologetic eyes. “After I finished the surgery, they imprisoned me in a secret base to train me in Mr. Chu’s actions until my face recovered. After that, they sent me to Sea City. I didn’t understand what they wanted to do, and I kept training in his mannerisms until our first encounter.
“Jingjing, I know our encounters were fake and my actions before you were faked as well. But one thing is real. The moment I first saw you, I suddenly felt that my life was worth it.
“I had other intentions in getting close to you, as I was under the command of others. But ever since I was born up till now, the half year I spent with you was the happiest period of my life.
“During these years, I have never forgotten you. I remember every moment of our dates and every time you smiled. I could even sense that your mood wasn’t very good back then. I…I didn’t know what happened to you, but every time I could make you smile, I would feel very happy and content…”
Chu Cichen clenched his fists tightly when he heard this.
Shen Ruojing could sense his fury, and she also didn’t want to listen to this. Hence, she interrupted Song Chen, “What happened next? Why did you suddenly vanish?”
Song Chen looked at Shen Ruojing as a look of hurt appeared in his eyes.
However, he could still control his emotions and continue, “They managed me very strictly and kept using money to threaten me. Every time I was with you, I felt like telling you that I wasn’t Chu Cichen. However…I didn’t dare to. Without money, Little Mi would die! This lasted until that night…”
“They wanted me to have a s*xual relationship with you, but I didn’t want to. I didn’t want to be together with you using a fake identity. So after I proposed to you, I made a decision that night and fled.”
Shen Ruojing was stunned.
She thought that Song Chen had impersonated Chu Cichen for the sake of drawing the real Chu Cichen to be together with her. So, everything was a coincidence?
Chu Cichen’s chin was tense as his aura was shrouded in frost. Right now, the coldness in his eyes could kill. “Who are they?!”
When he thought about that night and realized that if Song Chen hadn’t fled, the person who had made love with Jingjing would be Song Chen. Maybe, they would have three adorable children…
Chu Cichen felt as though his heart was stabbed.
However, Song Chen shook his head and continued speaking to Shen Ruojing, “I have no idea. They are very mysterious and would always wear masks. So, I had no idea who they are from the start till the end. After I fled, I came to the capital to look for Little Mi and quickly relocated our residence. Those people called me and said that since I’ve fled, I should never appear before you again. If not, they would kill both me and Little Mi and also kill you! That’s why I’ve never dared to look for you all these years.”
“It was only after Shen Jiayi recognized me wrongly as Mr. Chu did I learn that you have moved to the capital. At that time, my head heated up and I acted impulsively, so I intentionally played her. I thought that you would surely look for me once you sensed something wrong…and at that time…I would be able to see you again…”
Song Chen grew increasingly tired as he revealed the truth.
He finally heaved a sigh of relief after he had revealed everything. He slowly closed his eyes and said, “Jingjing, I’m very tired. I wish to rest for a while.”
Shen Ruojing nodded. “Sure.”
She grabbed Chu Cichen’s hand and wanted to bring him out.
But she hadn’t expected that when her hand touched him, the man froze. He only relaxed after realizing it was her.
This ward was ensuite, so there was a small living room outside the sick room.
In the living room, Shen Ruojing furrowed her brows.
Now, the discrepancies in their memories could be explained and they had also found the fake Chu Cichen. However, she was still trapped in a fog of confusion.
Why would those people want Song Chen to impersonate Chu Cichen to get close to her and date her?! What was their motive?
Shen Ruojing looked at Chu Cichen, wanting to discuss with him. However, she discovered that the man had a gloomy look on his face. She clicked her tongue. “Are you still angry?”
Chu Cichen grunted depressedly in response.
Just when Shen Ruojing was preparing to explain that she had always maintained a distance from Song Chen even when they were dating because there was an indescribable awkwardness…
Before she could finish speaking, the man suddenly stretched out his arms and pulled her into an embrace.
As a result, Shen Ruojing started slightly and wanted to struggle. However, Chu Cichen’s voice rang out. “In that half a year, we only met each other a few times overseas. After that, you faked your death and returned to China, and we never met each other again. I kept thinking that you were harmed by Dugu Xiao, and I felt incredibly lonely and sad because I was alone. However, I had no idea that you had no one to accompany you. This is why I can’t help being angry with myself…”
Shen Ruojing was dumbfounded and a current of warmth suddenly flowed from her heart, wrapping around it.
She slowly spoke, “Actually, you have always been with me.”
Chu Cichen didn’t understand. Just when he was planning to ask, a knock suddenly rang out from the door. One of the guards entered. “Sir, there’s a Doctor Xu outside who wants to come in to take a look at the patient.”
Shen Ruojing quickly pushed Chu Cichen away.
Chu Cichen twitched his lips. His expression was like ice as he spoke, “Get him to scram!”
Hearing this, the guard jumped in fright and realized that he had come in at the wrong time and disturbed the intimate moments between his employer and Miss Shen. Just as he turned and wanted to leave, he suddenly thought of something and continued to speak, “Oh, there’s another party who proclaimed that they were from the Rong Family. They said they were old acquaintances of the Shen Family, and they hoped to pay a visit to the ward.”
Chu Cichen cast another icy glance at him.
Just as the guard was preparing to leave, Shen Ruojing suddenly stopped him. “The Rong Family? Is there a young woman that looks very gentle and quiet?”
The security guard nodded. “Correct.”
Shen Ruojing coughed. “Let them enter then.”
