Chapter 241: Old Times

Chapter 241

Shen Yue and Shen Hui led a regular daily life.

During the day, the two went to school together. In the afternoon, Shen Yichen would pick them up to eat dinner together. After finishing their homework together at night, they would go to bed together.

It was like this every day.

Shen Hui was now deliberately controlling her actions at night, such as suggesting to herself before going to bed that as soon as she moved her hands, she would immediately wake up. This allowed her to effectively prevent herself from beating Shen Yue when she got carried away.

After a nightmare one time, Shen Hui woke up and checked Shen Yue’s body for signs of being beaten. She let out a sigh of relief when she didn’t find any.

For Shen Yue, everything was going smoothly except for one problem.

At school, Shen Hui treated her as her exclusive property, not only rejecting anyone else getting close to Shen Hui herself, but also bringing Shen Yue along to reject everyone else.

As a result, during P.E. class, the two of them were the only pair who lost without fighting because they didn’t have enough team members.

It wasn’t that their classmates were unwilling to team up with them, but that Shen Hui was unwilling to let anyone get close to her and Shen Yue.

Shen Hui didn’t care about winning or losing or grades. She only cared about being with Shen Yue. Her purpose for coming to school now was only to accompany Shen Yue to study at school and buy her meals on time.

Shen Yue said she was embarrassed to spend the Shen family's money, so Shen Hui would spend it on her behalf. After all, supporting a fake rich daughter with real money wasn’t a big deal.

However, although Shen Hui rejected all classmates except Shen Yue equally, she still felt it was a bit strange.

Why did people still try to get close to her no matter how much she rejected them?

Especially that Qing Xiaoyu, who always looked at her with strange eyes. Every time she was rejected by Shen Hui, she didn’t seem scared at all. Instead, she would smile at Shen Hui and Shen Yue.

Was she trying to get something from Shen Hui or Shen Yue?

With all kinds of doubts, Shen Hui accompanied Shen Yue at school for about a month. It was a calm month, except that Shen Hui had to reject the physics teacher's worship 100 times a day.

Now it seemed that Shen Jize was unwilling to go out because his eyes were too red. Shen Yue had taken Shen Hui with her to coax him.

The brothers had barely exchanged a few words when Shen Bin arrived with Xu Zhilian.

The conference room instantly fell silent.

Shen Bin wanted to say something caring to Shen Shuangchen, who still looked very pale, but hadn’t said anything caring in so many years. Now push came to shove and he couldn’t get any words out. The most he could squeeze out was, “You haven’t recovered yet. How could you come too?”

Shen Shuangchen was a little surprised to be addressed. Still, he replied, “Big brother said we should come listen to the neglected truths over the years, and also talk about our sisters’ affairs clearly.”

Shen Bin didn’t say anything more.

The conference room sank into silence until Shen Yue pushed open the door with Shen Jize, Shen Wu, and Shen Hui appearing behind her. The atmosphere in the conference room seemed to come alive again.

Shen Yichen beckoned them and said, "Come and sit down. Now that everyone is here, let's start the talk."

Shen Wu walked over impatiently without sitting down. He still didn’t hold back his sharp tongue. “Talking about this is meaningless. Hasn’t our family been like this for so many years? What truths can there be at this point?”

Shen Yue shyly raised her hand. "I want to listen."

Seeing this, Shen Jize gently bit his lip and echoed, "Then I'll listen too."

Shen Hui glanced at Shen Yue before obediently sitting down in her chair without expressing any opinion.

Seeing Shen Jize take a stand, Shen Wu snorted and sat down without saying anything else.

Only then did Shen Yichen speak up again, “Dad, mom, tell me again about the Shen family’s past like you told me before. Everyone’s not a child anymore.”

Looking at these children sitting in front of him, Shen Bin felt for the first time that time really did pass in the blink of an eye. These children had grown from the tiny ones in his memory into capable young men.

If only they didn't follow his old path...

Shen Bin strangely recalled Shen Yue calling him a coward that day. He sighed hesitantly at this time before finally recounting the Shen family’s old stories from the past.
