Chapter 197: Go to the Shen Family’s Residence

In the banquet hall.

Knowing that all four children were well, Chu Cichen no longer felt as anxious to go and look for them.

He was planning on looking for a random place to take a seat but ended up unknowingly walking toward the place where Shen Ruojing and Charles were chatting.

The two of them were seated at the balcony, their backs facing everyone in the banquet hall.

The small coffee table between their two sofas had some snacks, a glass of champagne, and a cup of tea.

Charles seemed to feel tired from all the talking and took a sip of champagne to moisten his throat. He then looked at Shen Ruojing. “Jing, why aren’t you drinking alcohol? Why do you only drink tea?”

Shen Ruojing replied calmly, “Drinking alcohol is harmful to the body. Drinking tea is good for one’s health.”

“…” Charles looked at her helplessly. “You’re only 20+ years old. Only a very few people are so young but as talented as you. Meanwhile, I’m already 70 years old, and I’m still contributing to research. You’re so young, so why do you want to retire?”

Shen Ruojing paused, then lowered her gaze and said softly, “… I just suddenly felt like it.”

She suddenly couldn’t find any meaning in striving anymore.

The comrade whom she had fought alongside for so many years had betrayed her just like that…

During that time, she was drowned in darkness and Chu Cichen was the one who brought her out of it.

However, later on, even Chu Cichen disappeared.

Hence, although her heart was no longer clouded, she suddenly felt that there was no more meaning to her life.

She had founded Z Corporation for fun and also to leave behind something for the children. After the Z Corporation’s operations went on the right track and were going on smoothly, she no longer had any more life goals.

At the thought of this, Shen Ruojing picked up her teacup and took a sip. “You can manage the development of Bugu Diazepam. You don’t need me for anything.”
