Chapter 115 Shadow



After bidding farewell to the three women, Luo Chen left alone.

The three women watched Luo Chen's departing figure in silence.

"What's wrong with him? Why does he look so unhappy?" Han Zhiruo was very confused.

Han Zhiruo thought that even if half the surprise was gone, it should still make him happy, so why did he look so sullen?

Ling Qingyi was also confused about what was going on. Luo Chen left with four apples without saying a word, which obviously meant there was something wrong, but since Luo Chen didn't say anything, the others didn't know either, and no matter how they thought about it, they couldn't figure out what was going on.

Luo Luo frowned deeply. Luo Chen's expression made her very uncomfortable, as if he was facing some difficult decision.

Are you still hung up on Ye Lin's matter?

"Uncle Xu, what happened to your eyes?" Ling Qingyi asked in surprise.

Han Zhiruo and Luo Luo looked over and were also stunned.

Uncle Xu's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had been spending half a month in an internet cafe; they were swollen and looked quite frightening.

Uncle Xu remained silent, seemingly believing that it was not a glorious thing to say it aloud.

Han Zhiruo suddenly remembered what Luo Chen had said to Uncle Xu earlier and asked curiously, "Uncle Xu, you don't actually smoke with your eyes, do you?"

Uncle Xu: "..."

Uncle Xu's silent expression proved that he really did it.

The three women were speechless.

Ling Qingyi was especially speechless.

She knew Uncle Xu best; he was steady, cautious, and meticulous. How could he suddenly do something so foolish as to smoke with his eyes? It was truly unbelievable.

at the same time.

Luo Chen received a message from Zhao Meng'er saying that she had something to do today and couldn't go shopping with him.

Luo Chen wasn't in the mood to go shopping. After replying to Zhao Meng'er, he went straight to a coffee shop, ordered a coffee, and sat down.

Before he could even think about some things.

A voice sounded behind him; it was a male voice, and it sounded pleasant.

Is this seat taken?

Luo Chen turned his head and looked over, somewhat puzzled, and also surprised.

The young man who suddenly struck up a conversation was very handsome, especially with his charming smile. Every move he made exuded a captivating charm that drew people in.

Having lived in Ningcheng for so long, Luo Chen had never seen anyone like this before.

This is the first time.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Shadow."

"film?"

Luo Chen had no recollection of the man at all, but the young man who called himself "Shadow" sat down opposite Luo Chen and watched him with a smile.

Do I know you?

"We didn't know each other before, but now we are acquainted," Ying said calmly.

The waiter brought the coffee and placed it on the table. When he saw a handsome guy sitting there, he was immediately captivated.

Ying smiled and said, "Could you buy me a cup of coffee?"

"Can."

"Thanks."

Ying ordered a latte from the waiter, who nodded blankly. If the store manager hadn't been urging her, she probably wouldn't have wanted to leave. Even so, she kept looking back at him every few steps.

"I've already bought you coffee, you must have something you wanted to talk to me about, right?"

"Of course there is, please don't worry, I will tell you."

Luo Chen couldn't figure out what this shadow was up to, and seeing its calm and composed demeanor only made it more mysterious.

A moment later, the waiter brought the coffee. Ying politely thanked him, and the waiter blushed and ran away.

Ying took a sip gracefully, then put it down.

Luo Chen watched quietly without making a sound.

Only after Ying finished doing what he wanted to do did he take out a document and a bank card from inside his suit and place them on the table.

"This is for you."

"What is this?" Luo Chen didn't immediately take it to look. The shadow appeared and kept the rhythm under his control, making Luo Chen somewhat passive.

"Take a look first, and you'll understand after you've seen it." Ying still had a smile on her face, her tone calm.

Luo Chen glanced at it warily for a few moments, then picked up the document to examine it.

This sight shocked him.

"The document is about the Beicheng District Mountain Development Project, which has already received an investment of 100 billion yuan. It has an official seal on it. With your expertise, you should be able to tell that this isn't fake," Ying said.

Luo Chen naturally knew that the official seal was genuine. As the president of the Luo Group, how could he not know? What shocked him was that the mountain development project in the North District had already been handed over to the Wang family.

How could it be on the shadow?

"Aren't you wondering why I have this document?" Ying guessed the question in Luo Chen's mind.

"Yes, wasn't it already handed over to the Wang family?"

"That's true, but it's not as complicated as you think."

"What happened?"

“Because I didn’t steal it, she gave it to me herself. You know her, she’s Wang Gang.” Ying stated the truth, her eyes clear, showing no trace of falsehood.

"Wang Gang?"

Luo Chen was even more confused.

He certainly knew Wang Gang; they had met at a social gathering and later became friends. But in the end, he wasn't familiar with Wang Gang. Yet, he couldn't understand why Wang Gang would entrust this important item to Ying, and why Ying would pass it on to him.

Why do this?

Ying picked up the coffee cup again, took an elegant sip, savored the taste, and smiled with satisfaction.

"This latte tastes great, looks like I can come back again."

Ying said, "Are your doubts growing stronger? Don't worry, I'll tell you everything."

Seeing that Luo Chen remained silent.

Ying shook her head slightly, looking somewhat bored, but still explained, "The Wang family has a daughter who has been unable to leave the house due to illness for a long time, so she can only stay in her room. Are you aware of this?"

"I didn't pay attention to those things."

Luo Chen shook his head. If he hadn't known Wang Gang, he wouldn't have paid any attention to the Wang family's affairs.

Furthermore, the book's plot doesn't describe anything about the Wang family, so people are even less likely to pay attention to it.

"The girl's name is Wang Mengmeng. No one has ever seen what she looks like. Only her family knows."

"Is what you're telling me related to what I want to know?"

"It's related to nature."

Ying nodded: "Wang Mengmeng is actually Wang Gang, so do you think there's a connection?"

"..."

"Wang Gang is just Wang Mengmeng's alias. She has long been cured. As for who did it, I can't tell you. I believe you will find out in the future."

"And her voice?"

Since Wang Gang is Wang Mengmeng, then Wang Mengmeng's voice must also be fake, right?

"It seems you've already guessed it; it really is fake, just some high-tech disguise."

"..."

Luo Chen was speechless. What was the point of doing this?

Is it fun?

Ying loves seeing this expression on other people's faces; the more speechless they are, the more amusing he finds it.

But remembering what he had been told, he couldn't continue teasing her.
