Later, I paid the CEO's ex-husband

Of course, Ren Chuming never mentioned these things to Chu Ruo, even if he really went to the Chu family and found Chu Ruo later, he never mentioned it.

After the funeral, Chu Ruo continued to work hard and busy.Interviews, filming, events... one after another, one location after another, and often even going to another city.He met many different people, passed by many different places in cars and planes, and also had many different people chasing him, with cell phone cameras pointed at him, yelling and screaming...

But even though he was so busy, Tianxing hired a teacher for him. Every day after he finished his work, he turned on the computer to attend classes, and trained Chu Ruo in all aspects from the aspects of posture and speech, from the management of eyes and expressions.

Chu Ruo is very serious about work and study, and never slacks off.This made him have no energy to think about Ren Chuming for the time being.

Just because he doesn't want to, doesn't mean it doesn't exist—Chu Ruo heard clearly what Ren Chuming said while hugging Chen Jing at Chen Jing's funeral.

After so long, he finally heard from Ren Chuming the reason why he decided to tear down the Chu family, and this reason was almost the same as what Chu Ruo had thought before—it was really for Zhou Manfei.

Chu Ruo wanted to say sorry to Ren Chuming, and said it sincerely, but when he trembled and wanted to speak, Ren Chuming stroked his hair and said: "There is no need to apologize, the matter is over, Now it's just us."

Chu Ruo felt that he couldn't lift his head up in front of Ren Chuming, which was the same as that he couldn't lift his head up in front of Shi An.

Ren Chuming still ran around with him every day, and he had to be distracted to deal with official business during the period.Chu Ruo felt tired looking at him, and wanted him to go back to Tianxing several times and stop following him, but every time he suggested this, Ren Chuming would not speak, just looked at him quietly, and Chu Ruo became confident insufficient.

Ren Chuming has an obsession, and Chu Ruo will fulfill his obsession.He knew he was guilty of a heinous crime.He asked Liu Guo to buy a lot of steam eye masks, and whenever Ren Chuming's eyes were on the phone or computer for more than half an hour, he would let Ren Chuming wear the steam eye masks to rest for a while.

Besides work and study, Chu Ruo often finds time to visit Bu Yang in the hospital.Bu Yang still showed no signs of waking up, slept soundly, and was well taken care of.Every time Chu Ruo visits Bu Yang, it takes a whole day.He would not say anything to Bu Yang, he just sat quietly beside Bu Yang, holding Bu Yang's hand, watching Bu Yang lost in thought.No one knew what he was thinking, including Ren Chuming.

Time passed by so smoothly and hastily, and Chu Ruo spent many days and nights in turmoil - dealing with various people and relationships during the day, dealing with herself and the past at night.This made him exhausted, but he persisted all the time, without showing any clues, looking like a normal person intact.

"Looking for the Deer" has been submitted for review, and it has also passed the review, and the next thing is to prepare for the release.Chu Ruo, as a character in the movie, is also an artist of Tianxing, so running publicity is the focus of his work during this time.

Liu Guo accepted a slow-life variety show for Chu Ruo, and came back and told Chu Ruo that this show is very popular and highly discussed. A wave of goodwill.

Chu Ruo has some reservations. He thinks that he is an actor. He has been on many talk shows before, and this time he is on a variety show. Will he get too close to the audience?

During this period, many TV and movie scripts came to Chu Ruo. Chu Ruo was carefully selecting one by one, and often asked Ren Chuming for his opinion.Ren Chuming didn't directly say which book is bad and which one is good, but just analyzed Chu Ruo one by one from the perspective of the play and the market, so that Chu Ruo can find his own play and know which direction he wants to develop, and then choose. script.

If Chu Ruo didn't want to go to the variety show, Liu Guo couldn't make up his mind, so the two asked Ren Chuming for his opinion again.Ren Chuming was having a meeting in front of the computer. At this time, he glanced at the two of them and said to the staff on the computer side: "Today's meeting will be here first." He closed the computer and turned to them, "I don't know Bodyguards still have this role - Boss, you are going to give me a raise."

"Up." Chu Ruo said.

Ren Chuming smiled, and said, "Go."

Chu Ruo frowned, and then let Ren Chuming say: "Everyone is tired, take this opportunity to take a good rest. The show was quite relaxing, eating and drinking, although there were cameras following it, it was better than the current one who ran several places a day. Take it easy."

Chu Ruo had no choice but to agree.Liu Guo was overjoyed, and immediately went to reply to the program group.

Ren Chuming rubbed the center of his eyebrows, Chu Ruo saw it, took out a steam eye mask from his luggage, walked over and handed it to Ren Chuming.

Ren Chuming saw the jade pendant that Chu Ruo had dropped from his collar when he bent down just now, raised his hand around the steam eye mask, and directly touched the surface of the pendant.

Chu Ruo stood in front of him, letting him touch her without moving.

"Do you remember what I said when I gave you the pendant?" Ren Chuming asked.

Chu Ruo lowered her eyes to look at him, and replied: "When you are not around, you wear the jade pendant, as if you are with me."

"You wore it the two years you left me, didn't you?"

"……Yes."

"You obviously don't want to leave, why did you want to get divorced?" Ren Chuming raised his black agate eyes and looked at Chu Ruo, "I want to listen to the truth this time."

Chu Ruo took a deep breath: "I'm not worthy."

Ren Chuming gently pinched the jade pendant.

"——At that time, I was a useless person, my appearance was ruined, my body was no good, and I had no hope. I don't want to be your burden, and I don't want to delay you." Chu Ruo said slowly, saying every word Slowly, but firmly, "Actually, I have the same thought until now. Brother Ming, I really don't deserve you, especially about Chu Nantian. Chu Nantian made your family unmarried, but now Chu Nantian Your adopted son is held up by you... Brother Ming, you are a good person, but I am not, I am not worthy."

No matter from which point of view, Ren Chuming is a victim, but at this moment, this victim is saving his heinous perpetrator—Chu Ruo is ashamed.

What can he do?Does he deserve it?

"I will definitely make it up to you. No matter what you ask or say, I will listen to you and make it up to you." Chu Ruo's voice trembled, "This is what I should do."

Ren Chuming easily opened the fingers holding the jade pendant, looked up at Chu Ruo, smiled, and said, "I confessed my love to you before, do you remember?"

Chu Ruo's heart skipped a beat.He said with difficulty: "Remember."

"Now that you say that, it is obvious that you are rejecting me again."

"We..." Chu Ruo closed her eyes, then opened them, "How is that possible?"

Ren Chuming didn't speak.

"You look at me, don't you feel sick?" As soon as Chu Ruo said this, she knew that she had said something wrong again, and she kept calling for a stop in her heart, but he still didn't stop. Looking down, he said, "I am Chu Nantian's adopted son..."

"You are a victim in his hands." Ren Chuming interrupted him in a deep voice, and said, "You are one of so many victims, so am I, my mother is, and so is my father. We are all the same , no one sees who is disgusting. Shi An doesn't understand, how can I not understand?"

"No, you don't understand—" Chu Ruo subconsciously wanted to argue, but suddenly found that she didn't know what to say next.Ren Chuming's words were correct, but deep down in his heart he felt something was wrong.

At this moment, Liu Guo rushed into the room anxiously, frowning: "There are two bad news."

Ren Chuming and Chu Ruo looked at him at the same time, and Chu Ruo asked first, "What bad news?"

"First, that variety show rejected us." Liu Guo's voice was steady, but his expression was still tense, "Second... Read Weibo by yourself." Then she handed over the phone.

Chu Ruo took it, and Ren Chuming stood up and moved to Chu Ruo's side, watching the phone with Chu Ruo.

The most searched page on Weibo was on the mobile phone, and the number one was "Chu Ruo's father, Chu Nantian", followed by the word "Explosion" in deep red.

"Now everyone knows that Xiao Chu is the son of the prisoner Chu Nantian." Liu Guo's dry voice came from behind them, and then the volume suddenly increased, "Really? Is what they said true? Chu Ruo Are you really Chu Nantian's son?!"

Chu Ruo's fingertips were a little cold, and the blood in her whole body seemed to rush to her temples in an instant, and her temples began to chug violently.Ren Chuming took the mobile phone from Chu Ruo's hand, patted Chu Ruo's hand, and turned to look at Liu Guo who looked surprised. He was about to answer, but Chu Ruo said first:

"Yes."

Meeting Liu Guo's increasingly ugly expression, Chu Ruo continued to speak slowly, "I am Chu Nantian's son."

The matter has fermented very seriously. Not only are there uproars on the Internet, but even Chu Ruo ran offline activities. The banners with the words "Entertainment Circle" and so on, signaled with great force.

Under this turmoil, several activities, interviews, and some promotions that were originally agreed to be done with Chu Ruo were all cancelled.The attitude of the partners is very tough, not only suspending the cooperation with Chu Ruo, but also saying that Chu Ruo and Tianxing should compensate them for their losses.Chu Ruo said nothing, and was about to make compensation himself, but was stopped by Ren Chuming.Ren Chuming said that Chu Ruo didn't need to come forward to ask the company to compensate.

What Ren Chuming meant was that since Chu Ruo was an artist of Tianxing, and Chu Ruo had no major faults, Tianxing would protect Chu Ruo.There is nothing to say about this.

Liu Guo kept his face livid.Since the incident happened, apart from doing the work assigned by Ren Chuming, and constantly connecting and explaining to the partners and program crews, he has never spoken to Chu Ruo.They had a meeting today, and Liu Guo sat far away from Chu Ruo, expressionless.

Chu Ruo was actually very calm.Since this incident broke out, except for the fact that he was a little caught off guard at the beginning, he was very calm the rest of the time—it was as if the stone that had been raised in his throat fell with a bang, and all the hypocrisy and pretense were shattered.

Sitting at the side of the conference table, Huawen pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and suddenly smiled: "I said earlier that there would be a situation like today, Mr. Ren, do you believe it now?"

Ren Chuming sat opposite him, leaned back on the back of the chair, and raised his chin slightly: "I never said I don't believe it, but I don't think it's a serious matter."

"Not serious?" Hua Wen asked, "Who is Chu Nantian? Do you need me to remind you? The former chairman of Chuhe Group, the top ten real estate figures in the country, an outstanding entrepreneur in Fangyou City... and the main reason for illegal lending. The perpetrator. He himself is smart and never opened financial institutions in his own name, but he would manipulate them to do things for him. Those financial institutions were found out when Chu Nantian was arrested, not only in Fangyou City, but also in Fangyou City. There are even some small towns in the surrounding area—those users who were deceived by him came from these places.”

"Those poor, innocent villagers and citizens are in urgent need of money, and Chu Nantian's financial institutions are professional and reliable, so they can go to them to borrow money without worry. But what awaits them is high interest. These interest, let alone this In the next life—the next life, the next life, they won’t be able to pay back. These things caused a national sensation at the time, Mr. Ren, don’t you know?”

When Huawen said this, his chest heaved, and he couldn't hide his excitement: "Do you remember Li Yue? The former financial manager of our company, the one who jumped off the building four years ago, remember? We didn't know until Chu Nantian was arrested. He is also one of the victims of Chu Nantian's financial companies."

"I remember." Ren Chuming said.

"But as far as I know, Li Yue's death has nothing to do with Chu Ruo. Moreover, Chu Nantian was able to be arrested smoothly at that time because Chu Ruo—— did not collect evidence of Chu Nantian's crimes and hand them over to Bai Heng. Master Zheng Feng, it is impossible for Chu Nantian to be arrested so soon." Ren Chuming continued to speak in a leisurely manner.

Hua Wen's eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses narrowed, and then he said softly: "Listen to you, it turned out that it was not accidental that you entered the Chu family at that time, nor did you suddenly lose your nerve—you approached on purpose. From the Chu family, right?"

Ren Chuming admitted: "That's right."

"For Li Yue? How did you know that Li Yue's death was related to Chu Nantian?"

"Li Yue's death did give me an urgent motivation to investigate the Chu family, but it's not entirely because of him."

"Why didn't you tell me?!" Hua Wen's voice suddenly rose a few degrees.

"You didn't ask."

Hua Wen laughed back angrily: "Is it my fault? At that time, I really exploded with anger. You are a dignified man, and you are still from the Ren family. Not only did you marry a man, but you also got married. I can help you hide it from your father. That’s enough to be benevolent—you still want me to take the initiative to talk to you?”

Ren Chuming looked at Huawen, leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice, "Brother, thank you at that time—"

"No," Hua Wen raised his hand and interrupted him, "I'm for my father."

Ren Chuming said: "No matter what, thank you very much."

Hua Wen folded his arms, calmed down, and turned to Chu Ruo who had been silent all the time: "Okay, now who can tell me what happened back then? Chu Ruo, tell me?"

"Let me tell." Ren Chuming said while holding the back of Chu Ruo's hand under the table.

Hua Wen looked at him.

However, Chu Ruo spoke at this moment: "Let me speak." He put his left hand on the back of Ren Chuming's hand, patted it lightly, then slowly looked at Hua Wen and Liu Guo, and said, " I said."

Ren Chuming wrapped Chu Ruo's hand in his palm with his backhand.
