Chapter 231
It was nighttime again, and this time Shen Hui was on watch duty.
Shen Hui did not mind keeping watch. Strictly speaking, it was thanks to Shen Shuangchen that she was able to escape from that place.
Shen Shuangchen, her third older brother, had unintentionally saved her.
This was the first time Shen Hui had to rely on someone else. To her, Shen Shuangchen was a bit different.
However, Shen Shuangchen was concerned about the fake little sister at home. Even when life and death was at stake, he still remembered "the promise with my little sister."
Shen Hui was very jealous. She also wanted someone to care about her like this. She also wanted to have an ordinary family and live an ordinary life.
She wanted to do the things ordinary girls loved to do, instead of researching mediums day after day in the lab. She also wanted to eat those good looking and delicious foods, instead of exhausting her brain every day and then being force-fed medicine for development by those two people.
She also wanted to have people to talk with unrestrainedly, instead of only being able to discuss her physical condition of the day with the test subjects.
So after she found out that she was not the real child of those two people, she had been looking for her real family members, and then she found them.
She remembered every one of her family members, as well as the girl, Shen Yue, who had taken her place. The day she met Shen Shuangchen was her third attempt at running away. She had already failed twice. If she failed one more time, endless nightmares would await her.
Fortunately, she met Shen Shuangchen. After providing Shen Shuangchen with first aid and injecting him with special medicine, Shen Shuangchen took her along back to the headquarters. Later, she followed Shen Shuangchen all the way back to the Shen house.
If it wasn't for Shen Shuangchen, she would definitely still be in the lab watched by those two people until she was drained of her last ounce of strength before being allowed to rest.
Just as Shen Hui was thinking, she suddenly felt there was someone beside her.
She turned her head to look, it was Shen Yue sitting down next to her.
Before Shen Hui could say anything, Shen Yue took the initiative and said, "I accompanied you yesterday, so I will accompany you today too."
In an instant, all the random thoughts in Shen Hui's mind disappeared with Shen Yue's words. She thought for a long time but didn't know what to say, she could only stiffly say, "Do whatever you want."
Shen Yue just smiled at her. Shen Hui felt there was nothing funny about it.
Shen Yue kept trying to chat with Shen Hui. If Shen Hui didn't answer, she would talk about herself - sometimes about interesting stories she had read, sometimes about her several brothers at home, and at last, about Shen Hui's parents.
"When I was little, I was taken to an amusement park to play. I got lost but met kind people who sent me back. Afterwards, countless times I wondered, if I hadn't been sent back that time, could I have had a new life and new possibilities? But recently I don't think that anymore."
Although Shen Hui had not answered Shen Yue the entire time, she had listened carefully to every word Shen Yue said. Seeing Shen Yue finish saying this without continuing, she unusually took the initiative to ask, "Why?"
Hearing Shen Hui's voice, Shen Yue continued, "Suffering always exists. There's no need to keep thinking about avoiding it and fantasizing about possibilities that no longer exist."
Looking at Shen Yue, Shen Hui finally said those words, "Do you know there is a really big difference between you during the day and you at night?"
There was a faint flicker in Shen Yue's eyes. She gently said, "I haven't changed. What has changed is you. You will only listen to me talk at night."
Shen Hui, who felt she had been flip-slapped: ?
Before Shen Hui could respond, Shen Yue had already called the bodyguards nearby to bring her a small blanket. After covering herself with it, she unabashedly lied down on Shen Hui's lap. "I was on watch last night and you slept. Today I should sleep." Feeling the weight on her legs, Shen Hui's body stiffened.
Yesterday, Shen Yue only leaned on her shoulder, which already made her extremely uncomfortable. What's more, Shen Yue was now lying on her lap!
After stiffening for a long time, Shen Hui finally couldn't stand it anymore and said to Shen Yue, "Get up."
Shen Yue didn't move.
From the steady rise and fall of her chest, it could be seen that she had already fallen asleep.
In fact, if Shen Hui really wanted Shen Yue to get up, she had ways to make her. She just needed to stand up herself.
But in the end, after calling Shen Yue twice and seeing that she was already asleep, she just let her be.
The next day when they got up, Shen Yue still said good morning to Shen Hui.
Shen Hui bit her lips and struggled with herself for a good while. Finally, ten minutes later, she also said good morning back to Shen Yue.
Shen Yue rubbed Shen Hui's head and said Huihui is really so obedient, then she was stabbed by Shen Hui's glare.
Coincidentally, just as the two were fooling around, Shen Shuangchen finally woke up.
Soon after, all of Shen's family members arrived.
After another round of examinations, Shen Shuangchen was transferred to a general ward. At least his life was saved. The whole family breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Shen Bin with an ugly expression, Shen Yichen said, “Dad, let’s talk about your issues after brother recovers. Before that, don’t make things difficult for Shen Yue.”
Shen Yichen’s eyes also fell on Shen Hui’s head. “Shen Hui, starting tomorrow, go to school together with Shen Yue. I will do spot checks on your studies.”
Shen Hui instinctively wanted to refuse. Just then Shen Yue suddenly grabbed her hand. Because of the momentary surprise, she missed the chance to refuse. Going to school together was settled.
