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

Chapter 252

Shen Yue was somewhat surprised, but not overly so. She had known that after Shen Hui had prepared that tube of medicine, if she didn't give it to Su Yunan, she would definitely use it somewhere else. She didn't expect her eldest brother's frog to suffer misfortune.

The situation was urgent. Shen Yue didn't have time to send Si Chengyou off for the moment. She directly told Si Chengyou and then pushed her disabled third elder brother towards the research lab.

Saving an emergency on the rivers and lakes comes first. Si Chengyou, just go ahead and entertain yourself.

Si Chengyou watched as he, who had just been the center of attention of the Shen family, was ignored by everyone in the blink of an eye. He felt somewhat confused.

It was just a dead frog. How come it sounded as if something major had happened?

Si Chengyou's intuition told him that this might be an extremely important event on his journey of returning to the past. Therefore, he must follow along to take a look. This was a matter of great importance and was definitely not because he was curious.

He quickened his pace and caught up to Shen Yue in three steps, asking, “If possible, can I come along?”

Shen Yue had an exceptionally good memory. Upon hearing this, she replied, “Eldest Brother Si, didn't you say you had something to do earlier? Don't you have anything to do now?”

Si Chengyou hadn't expected Shen Yue to remember his words so clearly. But he was someone who had experienced stormy seas, and he went along with the flow, “My adjutant sent me a message just now saying the matter has been resolved.”

Shen Yue nodded. She seemed to believe him. As she pushed Shen Shuangchen forward, she cautioned Si Chengyou, “Our eldest brother is usually a very gentle person, but if his frog dies, he goes completely berserk and loses all reason. He becomes especially terrifying. Eldest Brother Si, later it’s best if you don't speak. I'm afraid my elder brother will injure you by mistake.”

Si Chengyou inclined his head slightly. “Alright, thanks for the reminder.”

Shen Shuangchen was shocked by the rapid intimacy between Shen Yue and Si Chengyou's conversation. He looked curiously at Si Chengyou but only received a reassuring smile from Si Chengyou.

So Shen Shuangchen retracted his gaze. For this superior officer who was younger than him, he had never been able to see through.

Although Shen Shuangchen was not lacking in glory and was even called the number one person in the special forces, compared to Si Chengyou, he was still lacking.

Si Chengyou was only 20 years old this year, but his position was already that of a colonel.

Si Chengyou's experience in their troops could also be called legendary. He had graduated from military academy at 15 years old and directly joined the front lines in battle. He had offered strategic advice to turn the tide in critical moments and completed many important missions.

And through some trivial details that everyone would overlook in daily life, he analyzed major dangers in advance and notified his superiors to take preventive measures, avoiding serious losses for the country.

It was precisely because of this that Si Chengyou was able to sit in the position of colonel at such a young age.

Si Chengyou was formidable and would listen carefully to every soldier’s words. He would not stick to his own opinions just because of his military rank. Instead, he would distinguish every piece of information he obtained. Any problem that caught Si Chengyou’s attention would definitely get resolved.

This was also why Shen Shuangchen did not hesitate to first report Shen Hui’s situation to Si Chengyou after finding out about it from home.

To Shen Shuangchen, Si Chengyou was an extremely reliable superior.

This included right now as well.

While Shen Shuangchen was secretly praising Si Chengyou in his heart, Si Chengyou was also scheming on his own.

The reason he had come to the Shen house this time, apart from looking for variables, was to personally take a look at Shen Shuangchen’s family members.

In the previous timeline, he had only heard Shen Shuangchen mention one family member before, which was his elder brother.

But after Shen Shuangchen returned home this time, there was an additional family portrait hanging above Shen Shuangchen’s bed that he could see as soon as he opened his eyes every day.

The usually aloof Shen Shuangchen had brought back a photo that he especially cherished. This gossip had naturally spread very quickly, even reaching Si Chengyou’s ears.

From then on, Si Chengyou remembered this anomaly and wanted to closely see what Shen Shuangchen’s family members were like.

From the brief interaction he’d had with the Shen children earlier, Shen Shuangchen’s twin seemed to be someone without much scheming, and was even somewhat insecure and desired approval.

As for Shen Yue, she was not shy at all and had her own schemes in mind, but the motivation for these schemes was good without any real harm.

He had not seen the other family members yet. He would take this chance to observe everyone together.

Thinking this, Si Chengyou followed Shen Yue all the way to the location of the research lab.

Si Chengyou recognized this place. When he had first entered the Shen house, he had noticed that the architecture here was especially different. It didn't seem like a living area and instead gave him a very strange feeling.

But this feeling disappeared in a flash because he saw the bizarre scene unfolding in front of this building.

“Homage to Bhaisajyaguru.”

“Homage to the King of Medicine.”

“Homage to the Master of Remedies.”

“Homage to the King of Enlightenment.”

This song and these lyrics echoed throughout the entire yard.

A girl with long hair stood in front of another tall and straight figure, holding up her phone and mumbling something that harmonized with the Great Compassion Mantra coming from her ears.

Shen Yichen’s attention was completely on Shen Hui right now. He was oblivious to the people around them. Hearing Shen Hui mispronounce a word, he coldly said, “You pronounced it wrong. If you get it wrong again, I'm going to tear down your lab.”

Shen Hui's eyes widened in disbelief. “The lab was built with your money.”

Shen Yichen smiled faintly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. “I have a lot of money. Consider it burial objects for my toad.”

For the first time, Shen Hui felt Shen Yichen's terror.

For now, the only option was to obey. That would be the best course of action.

Shen Hui continued to earnestly read the script Shen Yichen had given her. As she read it, she suddenly felt something was off.

“As the fifth younger brother of my big brother, second brother's fifth younger brother, third brother’s fifth younger brother, fourth brother’s fifth younger brother, younger sister's fifth elder brother, I should assume my responsibilities as a member of the Shen family and use my talents to cherish every inch of Shen family land and every living being, especially my big brother's toads. I will not conduct experiments outside the laboratory, skin animals, or secretly administer medicine. I will not indiscriminately slaughter innocent creatures (except mosquitoes). I should love what my big brother loves, think what my big brother thinks, share my big brother’s worries, shelter the Shen family from wind and rain...”

At this time, Shen Yue also realized something was wrong. She was about to say something when a gentle and confused voice suddenly came from the side.

"Huh? Isn't this the confession letter you wrote to Toad Number One last time, Little Wu? What did you provoke Big Brother about recently that made him take out your draft for you to read?"

Shen Wu's face was pitch black in an exaggerated manner that screamed “my face is completely black right now”!

"I didn't provoke him. I've been very busy recently."

"What have you been busy with?" Shen Jize chatted with Shen Wu as usual, still not realizing the severity of the situation.

Shen Wu casually responded, "Human experiments."

Si Chengyou's gaze instantly looked over.

Shen Wu keenly sensed something and immediately changed his words, "I experimented on myself and got caught by Big Brother. Even so, I shouldn't be sentenced to death for this right? Why is he making Shen Hui read it?"

While speaking, Shen Wu walked towards Shen Hui.

Seeing this, Shen Yue handed her third brother's wheelchair over to Si Chengyou and ran over as well.
