When the few nurses heard his words, they rolled their eyes. “Who are you? Do you think the surveillance footage is something you can casually check?”

Lu Cheng was planning to reveal his identity. All of the Chu Family’s businesses knew his identity as Director Lu.

However, the old man in the ward started shouting again so Lu Cheng could only quickly return. The moment he entered, he heard his father asking, “Have you found her? Is she already engaged? You don’t have a partner yet, right? I thought maybe I could introduce her to you…”

Lu Cheng immediately abolished all thoughts of checking the surveillance footage. He directly replied, “I’m unable to find her. So many people are in Sea City, so where should I begin my search?”

The old man glared at him. “Unfilial child. You went overseas at 15 and only returned after 25. After that, you directly worked for the Chu Family’s boss. You don’t even want to care about our family’s business and make it so that I have to personally manage the company despite my old age…”

Lu Cheng rolled his eyes. “The things Bro Chen gave me over the years are worth much much more in comparison to our family’s tiny business!”

The old man was angered. “That business was something I started through many years of effort. Now, I’m not begging you to return and inherit it. But at the very least, you have to give me a grandchild that can help me manage the company in the future! I am already so old. When will I be able to hug a grandchild?”

Lu Cheng chortled, “I think it’s better for you to give birth to another child or a third one. You don’t have to worry. If you can’t afford to raise them because you are too old, I can raise them for you…”

“Bang!” The old man directly pushed over the fruit tray on the table near his bed. “Brat!”

Lu Cheng wicked the fruits up. “Father, you don’t look like someone who is sick at all…”

“I have a broken leg and not a broken hand!”

“Look at how active you are. You don’t seem to be needing rest at all, and your anger seems even greater because you saw me. I will make a move first. I’ve sent for a nurse and she will be here a while later…”

Lu Cheng said this and directly ran off.

The old man: “!!”

Lu Cheng headed out and immediately found a nurse. After making his identity clear, he instructed, “You have to take good care of the patient in this ward. If there’s any situation, just give me a call.”

The nurse immediately became much more passionate. “Director Lu, please rest at ease. There are no problems at all!”

Lu Cheng then found a few more male caretakers and specially instructed them to aid his father in going to the toilet. After he was done with the instructions, he glanced at his father through the gap at the door.

After all, the old man had just had surgery and was extremely exhausted, so he was already sleeping.

Only then did Lu Cheng turn around and was preparing to leave. But when he wanted to go to Yun Zhengyang’s ward, he saw a tall woman walking over.

This woman had curly hair and looked gentle and magnanimous. When she smiled, she exuded a charming aura. The moment Lu Cheng saw her, his eyes brightened as he greeted, “Sister Fang!”

Fang Panxia nodded and smiled. “I heard that your father was warded, so I specially came to visit him.”

“He just fell asleep,” Lu Cheng answered. After that, he brought Fang Panxia downstairs. “Have you seen Bro Chen after you returned?”

“Not yet.” Fang Panxia sighed when Chu Cichen was mentioned.

Lu Cheng continued, “I’ll accompany you to look for him.”

“Sure.”

–

At the entrance of the hospital.

Actually, after leaving the ward the old man stayed in, Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen didn’t walk far.

The two of them were slowly walking toward the car park.

Shen Ruojing had a lazy demeanor. It felt like she couldn’t even be bothered to lift her legs slightly higher when she was walking. Her etiquette was completely different compared to Chu Cichen who was nurtured from a young age.

Chu Cichen walked with proper posture, and the distance between every step was seemingly measured carefully. At this moment, Shen Ruojing’s eyes flashed with the hint of a smile. “The way you walk hasn’t changed despite so many years.”

Chu Cichen paused slightly.

He lowered his head to look at his feet. All of a sudden, he felt a little uncomfortable as though he didn’t know how he should walk.

He could remain composed even under the stares of ten thousand people, but right now when he was being surveyed by this woman, he actually felt a little overwhelmed.

Shen Ruojing sensed his discomfort, so her lips curled. “Your habit of getting shy easily also hasn’t changed at all.”

“…”

Chu Cichen frowned. He suddenly felt a hint of unhappiness in his heart.

He naturally understood that Shen Ruojing was comparing him to her boyfriend back then…

Hence, all the discomfort in his eyes vanished. “Miss Shen, I’ve said that I am not him.”

“Yup, yup, you are not.”

The perfunctory tone…

Chu Cichen grew even more displeased. “You…”

“Little Meng isn’t too good with writing, so you have to take some time to supervise her every day and ensure that she practices.” Shen Ruojing suddenly changed the topic.

Chu Cichen paused.

This was the first time they were calmly conversing about their kids. He was very serious as he listened. “I also discovered it. She said it was because her hand grew fatigued from writing words…”

Shen Ruojing involuntarily laughed. “Sometimes, she will say that the paper quality isn’t good, or the pen isn’t good. I then get the best materials for her, and she will resort to saying that her hand is tired. Actually, it is because she absorbs knowledge too quickly and is impatient about doing some tasks. However, something like writing words is something that requires patience to practice.”

She laughed and her demeanor suddenly shifted from an icy mountain to an ocean of blooming flowers. This was especially so for her peach blossom eyes. They were filled with emotions and would cause any who glanced at her to feel their heartbeat quickening.

Chu Cichen retracted his gaze. “…Understood. What about Little Ye?”

“Little Ye’s biggest problem is that he is a money-grubber…” Shen Ruojing looked at Chu Cichen. “In terms of learning, he is definitely inferior to Little Meng, but he still has excellent results. His level of mathematics has reached the middle-school level. Since there are private tutors in the Chu Family, you can get them to tutor him.”

“Hmm.”

Shen Ruojing then continued with a strange look in her eyes as she looked at him. “Little Yu grew up with Matriarch Chu. However, you guys neglected his learning too much! Why is it so that even now, he still has no idea about how to solve questions that require addition and subtraction for numbers below one hundred?”

“Hmm…Hmm?”

Chu Cichen frowned and spoke in a puzzled manner, “His level has also reached the standards of middle school. What do you mean?”

“…”

“…”

The two of them exchanged glances. A while later, Shen Ruojing finally understood something. After that, she spoke in a dumbfounded manner, “So…he was pretending?”

Chu Cichen recalled that back then, the little fellow wasn’t willing to explain the truth when he was kidnapped…

Chu Cichen quietly said, “Actually, Little Yu can be quite two-faced.”

As the two of them chatted, they arrived at the car park.

Shen Ruojing walked to her parking lot.

At this moment, Chu Cichen’s gaze flickered when he looked at her old and tattered-looking vehicle.

Shen Ruojing then wore her helmet and got on her bike. “Mr. Chu, goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

Bzz~

Shen Ruojing sped away on her motorbike.

Half an hour later, she arrived home.

Shen Qianhui was at the company dealing with things, while Jing Zhen was in the living room and screening through acting scripts. He felt very vexed. “Sigh, I want to act as this crazy dude, but I also want to act as that insidious villain. However, there’s a conflict with the schedule…or should I act as the eunuch instead?”

“…”

Shen Ruojing ignored him and directly headed up. Just when she opened her door, she saw Chu Yu taking a pencil and staring at a book in his hands with a sorrowful look on his face. After seeing her, he spoke in an aggrieved manner, “Mommy, can you continue to tutor me in math?”

“…”
