Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy-Chapter 268: Oink Oink Oink
Chapter 268
Si Chengyou grabbed two people named Su Chaohai and Zhou Rong.
These two were childhood friends from Xia Country, both graduated with doctorates at the age of 19 from the top ranked university domestically. Before graduation, they had gone abroad as exchange students for a period of time funded by the government.
During that exchange program, their abilities caught the attention of an overseas organization, which was willing to provide them research funding.
So after graduating, with funding from overseas sources, these two conducted some unethical research within Xia Country.
Fourteen years ago, their research was exposed and Xia Country issued warrants to apprehend them. But with the help of overseas powers, they quickly fled Xia Country and disappeared without a trace. It was not until Si Chengyou reopened the case file two years ago that he discovered some seemingly normal but actually hidden information, and traced it to their current location, finally succeeding in capturing and bringing them to justice.
This was the public statement about the case.
It seemed that Si Chengyou was exceptionally capable, spotting problems at first glance that even experienced veterans had missed, but in fact this was due to the accumulated hundred-years’ worth of information and experience in his brain that allowed him to make the judgment.
Si Chengyou felt a lot of pressure from such praise. On one hand, he felt he did not deserve such credit, but on the other hand, he had to accept the honors and continue climbing upwards.
He could not stop, because if he did, what awaited him was the abyss. From the moment the third layer of memories had been squeezed into his brain, he never again experienced what it felt like to live a relaxing life. There was a monster living in his heart that drove him forward, forward, and if he stopped even briefly, the monster would take a huge bite out of his heart which was very painful and suffocating.
But today, on the way to the Shen house with the case materials in hand, Si Chengyou felt an unprecedented sense of ease and delight that he had never experienced before. He did not know what the outcome would be from the choice he had made this time. He had not yet reached the endpoint where he could conclude the ending. He only knew...
Shen Yue was so handsome!
Shen Yue was truly so handsome!
Back when he confronted Shen Yue at school, he had felt a little embarrassed being suppressed by him, but now, upon remembering another layer of memories, all he wanted to say was that Shen Yue was so handsome!
Whether it was changing Shen Shuangchen, helping Shen Hui successfully escape, or subduing Shen Hui, he was so handsome!
Si Chengyou did not know if it was normal or not for an outwardly 20 year old mature adult man of unknown psychological age to idolize a 15 year old girl, but he felt his adoration for Shen Yue was perfectly normal.
Upon careful reflection, even the tea Shen Yue had brewed for him on his first visit to the Shen house was extremely cool! Could an average person make tea that gave such a feeling? Definitely not!
And he had even complained about it, now he really wanted to go back and slap himself twice.
Ah, Shen Yue was truly amazing.
Si Chengyou sat in the back seat, casually resting his slender, long-fingered hands with distinct knuckles on his legs. He looked ahead with an expressionless face, seemingly lost in thought about something.
When the driver was waiting at a red light, he had wanted to turn back to chat with his superior for a bit, but seeing Si Chengyou’s face, he silently and swiftly turned his head back swiftly.
His heart was very nervous, could something big have happened again? His superior was usually quite amicable. It was only when making major decisions that he would have such an expressionless face.
At first, the team did not understand this habit of Si Chengyou’s. When Si Chengyou had no expression, they had thought he was angry or upset.
But now they were all used to not overthinking it or disturbing him when Si Chengyou was deep in thought.
Because of this wonderful misunderstanding, when they arrived at the Shen house gates and the driver saw that Si Chengyou still had a cold expression, assuming that his superior had not yet come to a decision, he directly ignored the security guard who had given them clearance, and drove around the Shen property once more.
The security guard reported this incident to Shen Yichen. Shen Yichen's eyes turned cold, he humphed lightly, so Si Chengyou actually still knew what he had done, he had thought Si Chengyou had truly lost all sense of shame.
After Shen Yichen's humph, suddenly another six hums rose and fell around him. He looked around in confusion, deciding to start with his most aggrieved second brother first.
“Second brother, what are you humming about?”
Shen Shuangyi was suddenly called out, although he was startled for a moment, he immediately brought out his adaptability from the entertainment industry and responded, “They’re polluting the air around our house by driving."
Shen Shuangyi subconsciously felt that although Shen Yue had already been exposed to big brother, he could not expose that he already knew Shen Yue had been exposed, otherwise it would definitely trigger some kind of attribute in big brother, making the whole family suffer.
Shen Yichen barely accepted this explanation, and asked again, "What about third brother?"
Shen Shuangchen felt the same as Shen Shuangyi, also feeling he couldn’t tell the truth. So he remained silent, and after a moment it seemed as if he had phlegm in his throat as he humphed twice. Shen Yichen thus moved on to ask the next person.
"Little Four, it's your turn."
Seeing the previous two did not explain, although Shen Jize did not know why, following the principle of not prosecuting the public, he chose to do the same as his brothers.
"There are corpses of my beloved books outside, they’re whipping corpses out there with their driving. Hmph!"
Shen Yichen's eyes then fell upon Shen Wu. "Little Five," he said flatly.
"I put some stuff out there yesterday to attract bugs, but their driving has frightened all my bugs away."
Shen Yichen looked at him and suddenly said nothing.
Shen Wu met Shen Yichen’s gaze for a moment before conceding, “I was wrong.”
Finally Shen Yichen turned his eyes away and looked at Shen Hui. "Little Seven, what about you?"
Being called Little Seven made Shen Hui absentminded for a moment. f𝚛𝗲𝐞𝐰e𝗯n𝗼v𝗲𝚕.𝚌o𝐦
To conceal her abnormal mood, she also humphed and averted her eyes. She did not expect that Shen Yichen would actually just let her be like that.
But very soon, she realized why.
Shen Yichen's gaze landed on a certain person at the end. "Shen Yue," he said coldly. "What are you humming about?"
Shen Yue looked earnestly at Shen Yichen. "I'm not fully awake, just humming a few sounds. Big brother, may I go back to sleep?"
"No, you may not."
"Oh."
Outside, it took until the third lap for Si Chengyou to realize something was off, and he finally had the driver stop going around.
The driver awkwardly smiled. "I didn't want to disturb Your Excellency's thinking."
Hearing this, Si Chengyou's eyes moved slightly, somewhat guilty.
Just now he had indeed been thinking about something. He was thinking about how Shen Yue was such a handsome person who liked orange cats. Should he also raise an orange cat to be more similar to Shen Yue? Then they could find some common topics to talk about.
But then what would happen to the cats at home? Would they fight?
If the orange cat got injured during a fight, wouldn't Shen Yue feel bad...and other random thoughts like that.
After the car came to a complete stop, Si Chengyou collected himself and once again became the usual flawless "youthful prodigy".
Shen Yichen came to greet him at the door, but Si Chengyou keenly noticed that the Shen Yichen today looked at him differently than the Shen Yichen before.
The way Shen Yichen looked at him today made Si Chengyou feel as if he were a beast.
