418 Why Do They Look the Same?
All the guesses and uncertainties were gone at this moment.
Chu Cichen smiled and asked, “On your bike?”
Hearing this, Shen Ruojing nced at him challengingly. “Are you scared?”
Chu Cichen chuckled, “I’m not.”
After saying that, he walked over and put on the helmet that Shen Ruojing tossed to him. He then sat down naturally behind Shen Ruojing.
Dressed in a suit and wearing a helmet, this was supposed to be a disharmoniousbination. However, when sitting behind Shen Ruojing, he felt that everything seemed normal and wasn’t out of ce.
Chu Cichen took the opportunity to nce at his phone, only to realize that the other party had hung up the call at some point.
His lips curled and he put his phone into his pocket. After that, he rested his hands on Shen Ruojing’s shoulders.
“Hold on tight.”
Shen Ruojing’s cold voice rang out, causing Chu Cichen to smile. “Alright…”
He had just finished saying this when the bike flew out.
The strong wind gusted, and the bike’s speed was so fast that it was cleaving through the air, making one feel both the sensation of thrill and danger. However, under the helmet, Chu Cichen was only wearing a faint smile.
He had always known that Shen Ruojing liked such extreme sports.
From his view, these acts were too extreme. But now that he was with her, he suddenly felt very blissful no matter what they were doing.
His hands slowly moved from her shoulders to around her waist.
This woman always kept a cold front and usually wore loose-fitting clothes. However, only after hugging her did Chu Cichen realize that her waist was very slender.
He didn’t know what other women’s waists were like. He only knew that the muscles at Shen Ruojing’s waist were filled with power, not making one feel that the waist was so thin that it would easily snap. Instead, it gave him a firm feeling.
Themps in the capital move backward very quickly.
Chu Cichen only felt as if a few seconds had passed when the bike came to a stop.
The woman then turned and looked at him. “You’re still not getting off?”
Feeling stunned, Chu Cichen asked, “We’ve arrived?”
“Mmmm.”
Only then did Chu Cichen alight. When he took off his helmet and put it in the storage behind, he asked in a puzzled manner, “So fast?”
After he got off the bike, Shen Ruojing got off cleanly too.
She was wearing a pair of leather boots and tightly-fitted pants. The bottoms of her pants were stuffed into her boots, giving her a clean and sharp look. It was very suitable for the capturing operation tonight.
She casually parked the bike by the roadside before she scuffed her hair, casually tying it up into a bun with a ck rubber band. This would stop her long hair from affecting her operationter.
Only then did she say to Chu Cichen, “It’s not fast. It has been 20 minutes.”
After saying that, she took a few nces around and realized that Lu Hui wasn’t far away. She said, “Come with me.”
Shen Ruojing walked in front with light footsteps. After ascertaining that Chu Cichem was following her, she quickly went up to Lu Hui and asked softly, “Where is he?”
Lu Hui. “In that alley in front. This alley has a lot of turns and it’s easy for one to escape. However, I’ve arranged for people at every entrance. We’re just waiting for you to go and catch him.”
“Hmm, let’s go.”
Shen Ruojing waved her hand and entered the alley.
This was a small vige outside the Five Ring Road of the capital’s center. In this area, there were mostly single-story houses and buildings that were three to four stories high. However, all of them looked dpidated.
On the other hand, there was a newly constructed district just one road away from the vige.
The ce was brightly lit up and it looked very good.
Lu Hui exined, “This is an urban vige that is waiting to be torn down. However, as it is outside the Five Ring Road, it’ll probably take another ten or more years before that happens.”
Shen Ruojing didn’t understand. “Urban vige… Since he is staying here, could it be that he is a local from the capital?”
Lu Hui shook his head quickly. “The locals who live in the vige don’t have much ie. Therefore, they built many such illegal buildings to rent out to gain some ie. Many people who work in the capital but can’t afford rent would stay in such ces. I’ve asked around. That guy is called Song Chen and he rents a room here.”
After he said this, Chu Cichen suddenly looked at him.
Lu Hui quickly exined, “It’s the ‘chen’ from the word ‘dust’. It’s not the same word as Mr. Chu’s ‘chen’.”
However, Chu Cichen still minded this.
To speak the truth, he didn’t like this guy at all. This guy used his face to date his first love, and there was even a word in this guy’s name that had the same pronunciation as his name…
No matter how he thought about it, he felt ufortable!
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, he felt a soft feeling on his wrist. He then lowered his head and realized that Shen Ruojing’s hand was on the back of his hand, patting it lightly.
Her simple action made his mood clear up, and the gloominess that had just appeared was instantly gone. He coughed and said, “I don’t mind.”
Lu Hui. ‘… You didn’t look like that just now!’
However, Lu Hui didn’t dare to expose the big shot’s inner feelings. He could only swallow theseints and continue to lead the way for them into the vige.
The street in the vige had stalls on both sides, selling living necessities and food. The street was very narrow to the extent that if two cars were to meet, they would have to avoid each other carefully.
This rundown ce could instantly bring one back to the ’80s or ’90s. Compared to the bustling big city in the capital, it was like a world from another lifetime.
Since Song Chen could impersonate Chu Cichen back then and had learned all his actions and behavior, he was definitely from an extraordinary background. Why would he be living here?
Shen Ruojing quickly arrived at a small alley under Lu Hui’s lead while feeling curious.
This ce was set apart from the street in front, appearing a lot quieter.
They soon stopped in front of a one-story house.
Its door looked like a door of a courtyard house, but now the door was wide open. After the three of them entered, Shen Ruojing realized that the other three directions of this squarish space had three-story buildings built on it.
...
Lu Hui exined, “This is a rental house. Thendlord built a total of 27 rooms here in order to get more rent.”
Shen Ruojing. “…”
If each room was rented out at 800, the rent for 27 rooms would be over 20,000 per month.
It was no wonder people said that the capital’s locals could survive just from collecting rental ie.
She then followed Lu Hui to the second floor and finally arrived outside unit 207.
Lu Hui pointed inside and said softly, “He’s inside.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruojing’s gaze sank. She made a gesture to her back. When Lu Hui looked back in a daze, Chu Cichen had hidden at the side.
Only then did Lu Hui understand and hide on the other side.
Seeing that both of them had hidden well, Shen Ruojing knocked on the door.
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice rang out. “Who’s that?”
Chu Cichen only found this mysterious.
...
This was clearly his voice, but as it came from another person’s mouth, he found it extremely unfamiliar.
When he was in a daze, the door was opened.
A face that looked exactly the same as Chu Cichen’s instantly appeared in front of them!
Song Chen lookedpletely defenseless. When he opened the door and saw Shen Ruojing, his eyes first lit up. However, he immediately realized something and looked behind her. Immediately, he grabbed her hand and pulled her into the room.
Song Chen said anxiously, “Jingjing, how did you find your way here? Don’t you know that this ce is very dangerous?!”
His gaze and expression looked the same as they were six years ago. It gave Shen Ruojing a delusion as if reality and dream were intertwined together.
Hence, she pursed her lips tightly, frowned, then took a step back.
However, Song Chen seemed as if he hadn’t noticed her repulsion. Just as he was about to go and close the door, a hand stopped the door. Next, Chu Cichen walked out in huge strides.
Song Chen’s eyes immediately widened upon seeing him.
He looked at Shen Ruojing in disbelief and then took another look at Chu Cichen before taking a step back, falling back on the sofa in the room. “You, you guys found me in the end…”
The guy had a thin and frail figure, just like the youth from six years ago!
But this shouldn’t be how things were! When Chu Cichen was 20 years old, he was in the midst of growing, so it was normal for him to be skinny. However, after one stop growing taller, they would slowly lose their youthfulness.
Therefore, unlike Song Chen, Chu Cichen had additional hints of reliability and maturity on his face. His body also had more muscles. Overall, he looked more normal.
At this moment, Chu Cichen stared at this person who shared an uncanny resemnce with him from six years ago. He asked harshly, “Who are you? Why do you look the same as me?!”
