Chapter 634 - Chapter 634: Gigolo Chen
Upon hearing Family Leader Yan’s words, Chu Cichen raised his head to look at him, his lips curling with profound meaning.
Shen Ruojing, however, didn’t seem to pay any attention to the words and said, “I don’t need Family Leader Yan to be concerned about my personal life.”
Just a moment ago, he was addressed as Uncle Yan, but now he was referred to as Family Leader Yan.
It was clear that Shen Ruojing was not happy.
Family Leader Yan could naturally feel it, but after thinking it over, he thought about his youngest son at home…
The Queen Dowager’s era would eventually pass, and when she was gone, the relationship between the Yan family and the King would become distant. At that time, the status of the Yan family would undoubtedly decline. However, if the youngest son of the family could marry Shen Ruojing, and their future child would inherit the throne of Country A, it would be the greatest continuation of the Yan family’s legacy!
When Family Leader Yan thought of this and also of Shen Ruojing’s upcoming visit to the military camp, he spoke, “Your Highness, I am already old, and now the affairs of the military are managed by my youngest son. When do you plan to go? Let my youngest son, who is also your cousin, accompany you.”
Shen Ruojing didn’t think much and simply replied, “Alright, I’ll go there tomorrow with ten women.”
Family Leader Yan nodded upon hearing this. “There’s no need for the Princess to send me off.”
“Take care.” Shen Ruojing curled her lips. “Uncle Yan, see you tomorrow.”
When Chu Cichen was not mentioned, he was still an uncle.
Family Leader Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling that Princess Shen was taking advantage of him too much. But for some reason, perhaps because of blood relation, he could not resist her smile.
If it was the King’s smile, it would make him feel chills down his spine, but the Princess’s smile made him feel much more comfortable.
Family Leader Yan then withdrew his gaze, bowed, and took his leave. As he passed Chu Cichen, he suddenly stopped and looked at him. “Do you know why the Princess works so hard?”
Chu Cichen looked at him, but before he could say anything, Family Leader Yan sneered. “Isn’t it because you can’t provide any help? Let’s not talk about the military forces of Country A. Just talking about business, is your family as rich as the royal family? The four great families of China’s capital depend on the royal family for their livelihood, so what does your Chu family amount to? If I were you, I would have withdrawn long ago. The Princess is still young and has a promising future, but what about you?”
Chu Cichen.”…”
He didn’t say anything, or perhaps he thought that this person was at least a relative of Shen Ruojing’s and was saying these words for her sake, which prevented him from retorting.
He smiled faintly. “How do you, Family Leader Yan, know that I am completely useless? At least… I can make her happy.”
He looked past Family Leader Yan to Shen Ruojing not far away and smiled at her. Shen Ruojing immediately smiled back, with a completely different expression from when she faced Family Leader Yan just moments ago. Her eyes were filled with genuine happiness.
This scene fell into Family Leader Yan’s eyes, and he suddenly felt an inexplicable jealousy.
This damn niece. He had thought that her smile and the way she called him uncle was sincere, but it turned out to be just another act. The acting skills of this family were so good that it would be a waste for them not to win an Oscar!
Oh, it seemed that his royal cousin was an actor in China.
Family Leader Yan suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and turned away angrily.
The two men were speaking softly, so Shen Ruojing didn’t hear them. She then approached Chu Cichen curiously and asked, “What did you say? Why did Uncle Yan leave in such a huff?”
Chu Cichen sighed, “He said that I’m useless and incapable of bringing you any greater benefits. I just said that at least I can make you happy. So, he probably thinks that I’m too thick-skinned.”
Shen Ruojing.”?”
The corner of her mouth twitched, thinking that this man was becoming more and more glib. The Chu Cichen she knew before wasn’t like this!
After confirming his identity, he became clingy. Where was the cold and domineering demeanor from before?
Shen Ruojing still remembered how this man had treated her without any pretense and had casually said with a cool tone, “After all, you are the mother of my child…”
Thinking about the past, Shen Ruojing suddenly felt as if those events happened a long time ago, yet it seemed like they had occurred just yesterday.
She smiled. “I’m naturally happy to see you. After all, you are the father of my three children.”
Chu Cichen.”?”
Why did he suddenly feel that Jingjing had the intention of bringing up the past?
He quickly changed the subject. “You’re joining the army?”
Shen Ruojing nodded. “Yes, I don’t want to be helpless when my loved ones face threats again. Controlling the army means having complete control over Country A.”
Chu Cichen nodded. “Alright, do you need me to do anything?”
“No need,” Shen Ruojing said, “After joining the military, I also want to find opportunities to make female soldiers stand out. You should just stay at home and think of ways to entertain the leader of your Loong Corporation. By the way, they should be arriving in two days, right?”
Chu Cichen nodded.
Shen Ruojing asked, “Are there any taboos for your leader? Since they are willing to meet us for your sake, we from Country A must show enough sincerity in hosting them.. Also, what should we pay attention to when talking to them?”
