Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband-Chapter 298 - 272: Terrifying Upon Close Reflection

Hearing Lu Ming’s words, Director Lu also looked at Ji Sang, with a hint of a smile in his eyes. Ji Sang had always been sensitive to others’ gazes and suddenly had a guess in her heart.

Could it be that Director Lu knows Fu Yisi?

Ji Sang looked up and smiled at the two, nodding her head.

"I have been there to help a while ago."

Lu Cheng suddenly said,

"It seems that Ms. Ji and Dr. Fu’s post-marital life is quite sweet."

Upon hearing this, both of them were stunned.

Lu Ming was shocked by Lu Cheng’s mention of marriage. Despite having struggled in society for so many years and having developed the skill to hide his emotions, this time Lu Ming still revealed his surprise.

He turned to look at Ji Sang and noticed the ring on her hand.

Ji Sang, on the other hand, was surprised that Director Lu could so confidently say her life with Fu Yisi after marriage was very sweet.

Lu Cheng, smiling, set down his teacup, with his fingers casually interlocked and resting on his knees, an extremely relaxed posture.

"When Ms. Ji mentions Dr. Fu, her eyes seem to come alive a lot. One can imagine you must be very happy just thinking of him, so I boldly guessed."

Of course, there were other reasons, which Lu Cheng did not express.

Ji Sang, upon hearing Lu Cheng’s words, subconsciously raised her hand to her mouth.

She had heard from Sister before that when she mentioned Fu Yisi, she seemed much more animated, but she herself did not know that this was her first time showing it in front of others, and the first time hearing someone else mention it.

Ji Sang pursed her lips and smiled appropriately, uttering an apology.

Lu Cheng quickly shook his head.

"Seeing Ms. Ji, it reminds me of the one at my house."

At this moment, even the heroic and stern eyes of Lu Cheng softened.

Lu Ming playfully clutched his chest, joking.

"Director, you’re even feeding me dog food."

This remark drew the attention of the two to Lu Ming, and the three of them suddenly burst into laughter.

Occasional jokes serve as the best mood-breakers in adult conversations.

And sure enough, Ji Sang’s slight tension from earlier was now gone.

Lu Ming took the opportunity to introduce,

"Director Lu and his wife are famously a model couple."

"Hardly."

But while saying so, the smile at the corner of Lu Cheng’s mouth did not fade at all. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Ji Sang looked curiously at Lu Cheng, who laughed and waved his hand,

"In a marriage, you must acknowledge the importance of your significant other, as they are the ones who accompany you through a somewhat lonely life, so naturally, they must be cherished."

Now, Ji Sang understood a bit why Lu Cheng, as the director of the police station, appeared heroic yet serious without giving off a very direct sense of impact. It was because he had his wife to soften him, or perhaps, someone who could cherish his wife so much was in essence a very gentle person.

"But what about you, Lu Ming? You’re well past the age of thirty, why has there been no movement yet?"

This statement helped Ji Sang ask a question she had wanted to know a long time ago.

She knew Lu Ming secretly held someone in his heart, but what was the situation now? Was he waiting for that person? Then why hadn’t that person appeared yet?

Lu Ming smiled bitterly,

"Director, please don’t tease me. If the destined one doesn’t come, I can’t force it."

Lu Cheng laughed, implying something with his words,

"The right person may not necessarily be someone you wait for; sometimes you need to strive for them. Putting down what should be let go is essential; otherwise, how could there be room to find the destined one?"

With that, Lu Cheng stopped.

Some words are best left unsaid.

A hint of confusion flashed in Lu Ming’s eyes, quickly followed by a flicker of pain.

"Let’s take it slow, I’m pretty good on my own."

Hearing this response, Lu Cheng shook his head; clearly, Lu Ming was still stuck in a dead end, unable to get out.

The press conference was to be held at Jiangshui Police Station, at one o’clock in the afternoon. Lu Cheng had other matters to attend to, so he left first, while Ji Sang also needed to go check the place and prepare the equipment.

"It seems it won’t be Song Xiu assisting you this time, he’s busy with other matters."

Ji Sang’s eyes brightened,

"Cheng Jianwen’s?"

Lu Ming’s eyes darkened as he shook his head,

"No, there’s nothing more to find out about Cheng Jianwen’s case, as he has become alert and those behind him have not shown their hand, so we won’t continue to expend manpower and energy on this. As long as his kindergarten operates normally and legally, we can’t do anything else."

Indeed, that was the rationale.

But was it just like that, letting Cheng Jianwen off?

Ji Sang realized that having been away from work for a while, she had forgotten many things.

Like Cheng Jianwen saying he wouldn’t let her go.

Like Cheng Jianwen knowing about the orphanage from her childhood.

Like who was the person behind Cheng Jianwen.

...

Ji Sang was shocked and suddenly thought of Li Lei and Cui Yi, who also had people behind them.

In both incidents, they were targeting her. Following the lead of Cheng Jianwen’s case, was it possible that it was related to the events of the past?

Then the question arises, assuming the person behind it was related to the past, why would they want to target her?

She clearly couldn’t remember anything from the past.

At this thought, Ji Sang broke out in a cold sweat.

Indeed, she couldn’t make sense of it, but now she had decided to start hypnotherapy to recall the past events.

So, it meant that remembering the past could pose a threat to the person behind, and it was very likely she had seen something back then.

Those incidents happened before she was adopted while the orphanage was still operating normally. What could she have discovered?

Was it related to the faceless woman in her dreams?

Wait, how did that person know her identity?

Surely the Ji Family had intentionally erased her birth records.

And how did they know she had started trying to recover her memories from the past?

At this thought, Ji Sang could only describe her mood as horrified.

Could it be that she was already under surveillance by that person?

Ji Sang’s hand suddenly tightened, her eyes sharply scanning the cafe surroundings, which were sparse and seemed to be filled with ordinary office workers.

Sensing the sudden change in Ji Sang’s mood, Lu Ming frowned,

"What’s wrong?"

Ji Sang shook her head, exhaling a long breath internally.

Without thinking about it, she would not have realized so many things had been overlooked.

Lu Ming’s frown did not loosen.

Ji Sang’s face turned pale. How could there be nothing wrong?

Hesitant, Lu Ming still asked,

"Why are you so concerned about Cheng Jianwen’s case?"
