Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy

Chapter 214

At the end of November, Shen Wu joined Building No.6 through the Floor Battle with an extremely fast speed and became a top-tier member. However, no matter how excellent Shen Wu was, he could not become the owner of Building No.6.

According to what Aipleil revealed, the function of Building No.6 was too special that the owner must be someone controllable by the prison.

In other words, Shen Wu could not be fully controlled by the prison, so the prison would not hand Building No.6 to him. At best, he could only be a capable thug.

From the information obtained, Shen Wu had spent almost all the income he obtained in prison to hire bodyguards for Shen Jize. Even so, Shen Jize was still successfully assassinated in Building No.1 once.

As Shen Wu was on high alert, Shen Jize luckily did not suffer fatal injuries that time.

Unfortunately, good luck would not last forever. At the end of December, Shen Jize still died due to excessive blood loss.

For people as extremely vulnerable as Shen Jize, who had neither self-protection means nor the shelter of major forces, they would only die faster in Flightless Bird than outside.

It was the wrong choice for Shen Wu to bring Shen Jize into Flightless Bird.

Shen Yue had always been an onlooker. She neither stomped on them nor gave them a hand.

It was only after she heard that Shen Wu had been removed from Building No.6 for attempting to take surgical knives out of Building No.6 several times that she sent Shen Wu a new knife through someone.

Two people died that night.

Shen Wu also never showed up again.

As expected, Shen Yue was put in solitary confinement for 15 days for sending dangerous tools to other inmates. It was Si Chengyou who got her out.

Soon, the Chinese New Year’s Eve came again.

After having dumplings with the people from Building No.7, Shen Yue still took some food specially left to Building No.5 with her.

36th floor of Building No.5, as dark as it was a year ago. But this time, Shen Yue did not intentionally sneak up quietly like before. Instead, she turned on all the lights to tell Si Chengyou that she had come.

She took the food to Si Chengyou’s bedroom. Sure enough, Si Chengyou was drinking by the window again, but he did not cry and there was no smell of blood in the room.

It could be said that Shen Yue had not smelled the smell of blood from Si Chengyou for a long time. The last time she made a surprise check on Si Chengyou's hands, she did not see any new scars either.

Si Chengyou did keep his promise that after she returned from the front line, he never hurt himself again.

"Si Chengyou, why aren't you crying today?" Shen Yue asked on purpose.

In fact, she knew that Si Chengyou would never cry on ordinary days. He also disguised himself very well. Except for crying once on the last Chinese New Year’s Eve, he had always been extremely strong at other times, which could only make people look up to him.

Sometimes, even if Shen Yue deliberately embarrassed him in front of others, he could round it back immediately with extremely strong psychological endurance.

If Shen Yue did not have a down-to-earth confidence in her memory, she might even think that the Si Chengyou she saw that day was just an illusion.

Hearing Shen Yue’s words, Si Chengyou turned his head to look at her. The alcohol made Si Chengyou's face flushed, adding a touch of charm to his already handsome face.

"I guessed you would come, so I endured it deliberately."

He endured without crying?

While Shen Yue thought this way, she put the food on the table. In addition to some dumplings, there was also a bowl of soup. "Do you want to eat something?"

Si Chengyou shook his head. "I've been wondering when you'd ask. It turned out to be today. It's indeed a day you would choose."

Shen Yue pulled over a stool and sat right in front of Si Chengyou as a matter of course. She continued the conversation naturally. "People's psychological defenses become weaker after 10 pm at night. This is what you told me. And today, you must be drinking. If not today, then when?"

Hearing Shen Yue's analysis, Si Chengyou smiled. "You did remember everything I told you and used it on me."

Si Chengyou was generous. He was not dissatisfied at all that Shen Yue had schemed against him.

"Now that you knew I was coming, it's time for you to fulfill the agreement." When Shen Yue agreed to Si Chengyou’s task of going to the battlefield, they agreed that as long as she came back, Si Chengyou would have to tell her why he wanted to be a hero.

But Shen Yue did not mention it after she came back, and Si Chengyou did not take the initiative to say it either.

Si Chengyou knew what Shen Yue was waiting for. He also knew that with Shen Yue's current capabilities, she would subconsciously doubt everything. This had become her instinct. So he was also waiting for this moment, waiting for a time when Shen Yue was willing to believe in him, waiting for a time when Shen Yue could completely control him, to tell the truth.

The time he had been waiting for was right now.

"I liked the stories of heroes ever since I was a child, whether it was a personal hero or heroes of many people. I liked them all."

"Wait a minute!" Shen Yue interrupted Si Chengyou. She took melon seeds from her pocket, got into position, then said, "Go on."

Si Chengyou was not angry about being interrupted. His eyes softened for a moment. "You’re much more spirited now than when we first met."

Without waiting for Shen Yue to reply, Si Chengyou changed his tone and continued talking about the past. "My family has been in the military for generations. But laughably, when it came to me, I didn’t even have the courage to join the army.

My father always said that soldiers must keep the conviction of death at all times to guard the land behind them and the people living on this land. But I couldn't help thinking, what about my life? If I died, wouldn't my family be sad?

I was too afraid.

Luckily, my elder brother took the pressure for me and let me do what I wanted freely.

I also have an elder sister. She loved the culture handed down from our ancestors very much. All the novel things I taught you were originally taught to me by my sister. She was a very gentle woman."

When Si Chengyou talked about this, an expression that had never appeared before appeared on his face, which made Shen Yue see the boy who was protected by his family and afraid to go to the battlefield.

"But after one thing appeared, our lives changed.

Time and space travel, every country fought desperately for these four words, let alone Xia Country where the wind first came out.

In order to resist the Alliance Army of Nine Countries, my father and elder brother died on the battlefield. My sister, who had been so weak all the time, did not escape when the enemy came. She said she would live and die with the land beneath her feet.

I was the only one who escaped. I was also the only one who survived.

I was saved by my father's last comrade in arms. He gave me something that looked ordinary, even only the size of a rice grain. It was a crystal." When Si Chengyou said this, he looked at Shen Yue's heart and pulled out a smile that did not look good. "That's the medium that can travel through time and space."

"I learned from him my father's last words: Go back to the past and destroy the medium of time and space... Be sure to complete the mission."

After hearing this, Shen Yue had put down the melon seeds in her hand and looked at Si Chengyou without any smile in her eyes. "What you want is now in my heart."
