Chapter 777: Surgery
Translator: Lordbluefire
Song Chen was stunned.
He stared at Chu Cichen and asked, “Are you sure about this?”
Up until now, Song Chen was still unsure if Chu Cichen was playing some kind of scheme.
Chu Cichen remained silent and closed his eyes.
On the other hand, Lu Cheng stepped forward and said, “The surgery can start at any time. What scheme can Chu Cichen possibly have?”
Song Chen clenched his jaw tightly.
He looked at Chu Cichen lying on the hospital bed again.
The man’s face was pale as paper, but his expression was resolute, indicating that he had made up his mind.
This suddenly reminded Song Chen of tonight, during their wedding night, in their bridal chamber. After he finished showering and walked out to face Shen Ruojing, she suddenly said, “That’s enough, Song Chen.”
Song Chen was startled at that moment.
She had recognized him!
Song Chen pursed his lips, unable to believe it, and looked at Shen Ruojing without saying a word.
Shen Ruojing calmly said, “The moment you walked out of the meeting room and I saw you for the first time, I knew you were Song Chen, not Chu Cichen.”
Song Chen thought it was impossible. “Six years ago, you couldn’t tell us apart!
I don’t believe you can distinguish now!”
Shen Ruojing, wrapped in a bathrobe, smiled and said, “Six years ago, you were Chu Cichen, but after these six years, do you still think you are Chu Cichen?”
Song Chen was stunned.
“You are not him anymore; you are just Song Chen.”
“Song Chen, no one can replace you, and I hope you can be yourself instead of being someone else’s substitute.”
Song Chen was dazed, then angrily shouted, “Do you think 1 wanted this? No! It was imposed on me by your father! He created me!”
“I’m sorry,” Shen Ruojing’s voice sounded somewhat cruel at this moment, “but I only love Chu Cichen. Even if you have his memories from the past six years, you are not him…”
Shen Ruojing’s words shocked Song Chen.
He clenched his jaw tightly, looking at Shen Ruojing in disbelief, and finally cried out in anguish, “Then why did you cooperate with me in acting? Jingjing, you cared about me too, and you wanted to be with me, didn’t you?”
“I’m sorry,” Shen Ruojing remained rational, speaking somewhat coldly, “1 know all of this was arranged by Chu Cichen. 1 don’t want to make him sad.”
A week later.
During this week, Chu Cichen had not returned home.
Matriarch Chu felt embarrassed when facing Shen Ruojing. She kept calling Chu Cichen’s phone, but he never answered.
Helpless, Matriarch Chu dialed Lu Cheng’s number.
Lu Cheng answered promptly, and Matriarch Chu immediately scolded, “Where is Chu Cichen? He abandoned his bride on the wedding night and disappeared for a whole week. Doesn’t he want his children and wife?”
Lu Cheng quickly apologized, “Auntie, Bro Chen has been very busy lately, he has been meeting with clients for a collaboration…”
Matriarch Chu angrily interrupted, “Clients, clients! Are clients more important or your wife?”
Lu Cheng fell silent for a moment and said, “Bro Chen said he will definitely return home in two more days and personally apologize to you and Lord Jing.”
Matriarch Chu wanted to say something, but Lu Cheng spoke up, “Oh, Auntie, what did you say? Why can’t I hear you suddenly? I’m abroad, and the signal here is not very good. I’ll call you back when the signal is better, okay?”
Then Lu Cheng hung up the phone.
Matriarch Chu,”?????”
Matriarch Chu was going crazy. She couldn’t believe that he actually hung up on her.
Shen Ruojing smiled but her eyes were filled with deep sadness and concern.
She didn’t know how Chu Cichen was doing now…
After learning from Jing Zhen about Chu Cichen’s request for that technique, she understood what Chu Cichen wanted to do. But a week had passed, and Song Chen hadn’t returned, and Chu Cichen hadn’t returned either…
Could it be….
