Chapter 465 - 465 Jing Zhen’s Identity
“How could that be?”
Shen Yuansong raised his voice and said, “Even if I disliked him, it wouldn’t affect my acknowledgment of my daughter! I didn’t ask them to come to the family recognition banquet mainly because your mother is not comfortable with such occasions.”
Shen Ruojing didn’t expose her grandfather’s little scheme and just asked, “By the way, how is it going with the Science Association?”
Shen Yuansong replied, “Your friend is very helpful. After she clarified the situation for you, no one in the Science Association is criticizing you anymore. Old Hu also has no reason to do so. But after this incident, I also realized that one should keep a low profile. I took on the position of president because after inheriting the family business, I couldn’t focus solely on research. If I could still concentrate on research, who would care about being the president?”
Shen Ruojing’s eyes dimmed.
Generally, when people were lying, they tended to explain more.
Even though Rong Rong had helped to explain the situation, some people still believed that she was the creator of the No. 5 Neurotoxin, and therefore, they were not willing to vote for her.
Her grandfather was worried that she would not be elected, and so he was upset about it.
Sadly, she had no proof to convince everyone that it was a plot by the Doom Organization.
But now, the law had determined that she was innocent, and even netizens were no longer investigating her. Most people in the scientific community should be clear-minded, right?
Shen Ruojing lowered her eyes and said, “Grandfather, I still want to try.”
This was the first time she had taken the initiative to ask for work in the past few years.
First, she didn’t want Shen Yuansong’s lifelong effort to be wasted just because of a change of personnel in the leadership position.
Second, the Doom Organization was related to Jing Zhen, and she must occupy a certain position in the scientific community before she could fight against the Doom Organization!
Today, Jing Zhen’s words were filled with lies, but she understood the truth!
When she was young, she didn’t understand anything and only knew that there were some complicated theoretical books in her family’s study. Although the cover appeared to be a martial arts novel, upon opening it, it would be physics, biology, and so on.
She even naively thought that martial arts novels were those scientific theories.
It wasn’t until later when she grew up that she understood the difference and gradually realized that their family’s study was different from other people’s study. Many books on advanced foreign scientific research, which were not found in textbooks, were present in their family’s study.
She was very interested in these books, and the numbers and symbols, as well as various chemical reactions, were like her favorite toys, and she couldn’t bear to put them down.
At that time, she also asked her father why their family’s books were different.
Her father secretly told her, “What’s different about them? I bought them for decoration, as I was afraid of being criticized for not being knowledgeable. Hence, I bought them for $5 per kilogram from the bookstall. I haven’t even looked at them. Was I cheated? I’ll go return them!”
Young Shen Ruojing was so frightened that she immediately said, “No, no.”
After that, she immersed herself in those books and couldn’t extricate herself.
She once suspected that her father was like the heroes in martial arts novels, clearly a peerless master, but disguised as a commoner.
However, his cowardly appearance dispelled her doubts. It wasn’t until she grew up and gradually realized her father’s antics that she understood.
When her mother was bullied in the Shen family, he always found his own way to help solve the problem. As a supporting actor, his daily wage was only one or two hundred dollars, which was clearly not enough for the whole family to eat and drink. However, after they were kicked out of the Shen family, he could afford to buy a small three-story villa.
Although he had an astonishingly beautiful appearance and could make a living with just his face, for some reason, he was always mediocre in the entertainment industry.
All these made Shen Ruojing understand that her father was not an ordinary person.
Now, she finally knew his identity.
Her father was a scientist.
She didn’t know which field he specialized in, but he must have developed something that the Doom Organization was very interested in.
However, he also knew that this thing was not friendly to humans, so he hid it.
This really gave her a feeling that he was a martial arts master living in seclusion.
Shen Ruojing lowered her eyes.
She didn’t blame her father for not giving up that thing even when she was kidnapped for seven months.
After all, her father did not compromise on the premise of ensuring her safety. As for whether her father had any other background, or whether Old Master Bai respected him only because of his identity as a scientist or other reasons… Shen Ruojing was currently uncertain and didn’t dare to guess wildly.
What she needed to do now was to try her best to protect her family’s safety.
At this moment, Shen Yuansong didn’t seem to expect his granddaughter to be so determined. So, he hesitated and said, “I’m worried that you will be rejected.”
“If you don’t try hard, how will you know?” Shen Ruojing smiled. “Even if I fail, I won’t regret it.”
“Great!” Shen Yuansong was happy. “As expected of my granddaughter! I’ll arrange my connections to support you. Let’s work hard and try not to regret it!”
After hanging up the phone, Shen Ruojing turned around and saw Chu Cichen standing at the door of the study, as well as Lu Cheng who was wearing a floral shirt.
When she looked over, Chu Cichen gestured toward the study, indicating that he wanted to talk to Lu Cheng about something.
Shen Ruojing nodded and Chu Cichen entered the room.
Lu Cheng said, “Even though Lord Jing is now in charge, do you really have to ask her permission to hold a meeting with me? It’s like you have a controlling wife.”
Chu Cichen smirked and replied, “You don’t understand.”
Lu Cheng retorted, “Yeah, I don’t understand the feeling of being in love, but if I have a lover in the future, she will definitely listen to me.”
Chu Cichen ignored his comment and said, “You’re going abroad.”
Lu Cheng immediately straightened his body and asked, “Bro Chen, did I do something wrong recently?”
Chu Cichen was speechless for a moment before he said, “No, I need you to help me find where the No. 5 Neurotoxin was first discovered.”
Since the Doom Organization was the first to invent the No. 5 Neurotoxin, there must be evidence of its use. As long as they found this evidence, it could prove that Shen Ruojing didn’t invent the No. 5 Neurotoxin.
Although Shen Ruojing was innocent now, Chu Cichen didn’t want this to remain a stain on her reputation.
His 518 ought to be a heroine basking in the light.
Lu Cheng immediately straightened his body and said seriously, “Roger.”
...
The next day.
Although the public opinion had been cleared, they still didn’t know how the situation at the kindergarten was. So Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen decided to let the three little ones stay at home for a few more days.
While feeling bored, Shen Ruojing thought for a while and decided to take the three little ones to the filming set to meet Shen Yuansong.
