Chapter 222 - Could It Be Fake

"What are you looking at?" Shen Yu asked with a smile on his face. He had been holding it in all along the way. It was not that he did not feel Emily's gaze, but he just could not figure out what the girl next to him was thinking.

Emily shook her head and gave him a bright smile. "I just feel that it's a little unreal. Have you really come back?"

Emily suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at Shen Yu in disbelief. She frowned and said, "Could it be that you're not real? Did Sixth Brother find you to act and make me happy?"

Shen Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry as soon as Emily finished speaking. Was Emily's mind playing tricks on her now? How was he supposed to prove that he was Shen Yu?

Shen Yu stopped in his tracks. Emily looked at him in confusion as he took out his phone and dialed Shen Nan's number. The call was picked up very quickly. Shen Yu turned on the speaker and Shen Nan's voice came from the phone.

"Fifth Brother, are you done using the car? That's the first day of school gift that Grandpa gave me. It's very precious." Emily could not have misheard this voice. It really was Shen Nan's voice.

"Emi is beside me. Why don't you help me verify that I am myself?" Shen Yu looked at Emily with a smile as he said this. Emily's face immediately turned red like a cooked shrimp.

On the other end of the phone, Shen Nan asked Shen Yu to pass the phone to Emily. He had no idea that Shen Yu was using the loudspeaker. When he heard Emily call him 'Sixth Brother,' Shen Nan immediately scolded Emily.

"Emily, have you been reading too much?" Shen Nan asked. "Although Fifth Brother looks a little different from when he was young, anyone with eyes can tell that he is my Fifth Brother. Are you out of your mind? Do you think that I found someone to act and lie to you?"

Shen Yu frowned. He only asked Shen Nan to prove his identity. He did not ask Shen Nan to scold Emily.

"But you didn't tell me that Brother would come back."Emily felt wronged. Anyone would be surprised to see a person who had disappeared for eleven years suddenly appear in front of her. Emily had also not seen Shen Yu for eleven years. How would she know what Shen Yu looked like now? What if Shen Nan had really found someone similar to him?

"What a fool. You're a classic case of being silly from reading. It was Fifth Brother who told me not to tell you. Don't you understand? Fifth Brother wanted to give you a surprise." Shen Nan's voice came from the phone again. He was a little impatient.

In Shen Nan's eyes, Emily was just being pretentious. She had clearly thought about it a lot before, but she had forced herself not to contact Shen Yu. Now that he had appeared in front of her, she began to doubt whether he was real or not.

"I know, I know. Why are you being so long-winded?" When Emily heard Shen Nan talking on the phone, asking whether she was stupid or not, she looked at Shen Yu, who was beside her, and was extremely anxious. She hurriedly hung up the phone. "Sixth Brother, I'm sorry. I have to go." If Shen Nan were to continue speaking, she would probably be scolded by Shen Nan to the point that she was useless.

"Is this how this kid usually treats you?" Shen Yu was very dissatisfied, but he felt that it was extremely familiar. Emily and Shen Nan liked to bicker when they were young, and they were still like this now. On the contrary, it made Shen Yu feel extremely at ease, as if he had never left.

"Ah? Oh, that's not it. Maybe he was really angered by me." Emily did not react for a moment. The smile on her face deepened. In her mind, she kept recalling what Shen Nan had just said. Brother wanted to give her a surprise.

"Brother, so, Sixth Brother has been acting all mysterious today to pick you up?"

"Yes, that's right," Shen Yu said with a smile. Emily quickly remembered that Shen Nan was acting strangely today. There was nothing that she did not understand now. It turned out that Shen Nan and Shen Yu had been in contact all this time. No wonder Shen Yu was so sure that she was Emily.

Shen Yu nodded. A hint of gloominess flashed across Shen Yu's face, "Emi, only Xiao Nan and Li Yu know that I'm back. Initially, I didn't plan to show myself today. I just wanted to take a look at you silently. But in the end, I couldn't help it. So, can you help me keep it a secret?"

Emily didn't understand. He was already back, so why didn't he let others know? The Shen family missed him very much. Although they didn't deliberately mention him in front of her, Emily knew that... the Shen family missed Shen Yu very much.

Several times, she saw Old Madam Shen secretly wiping her tears while looking at Shen Yu's photo. Second Aunt and Third Aunt were comforting her by the side. Old Madam Shen even pointed at Shen Yan and scolded him for being cruel. But this kind of thing... Old Madam Shen returned to normal the moment Emily went downstairs.. They were afraid that she would be sad and upset, so they hid their thoughts.
