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

Chapter 283

Shen Yue and Shen Hui went to college together.

Due to Shen Hui's outstanding performance in recent years, especially her numerous achievements for the country, the organization, in conjunction with Si Chengyou's report, determined that Shen Hui's level of risk had reached its lowest point. There was no longer a need for Si Chengyou to observe her on a weekly basis. Instead, they selected a new teacher from the university to be responsible for observing Shen Hui.

When Si Chengyou first heard this news, he was relieved because he had finally resolved a matter of his own.

Teaching Shen Hui seemed simple, but it required a great deal of effort.

Even though Shen Yue helped him maintain Shen Hui's discipline in attending classes, Si Chengyou still put a lot of effort into instilling knowledge and beliefs into Shen Hui's mind.

Especially when Shen Hui occasionally asked sharp and sensitive questions, it kept him on edge at all times.

No longer having to deal with Shen Hui should have been a good thing, but Si Chengyou felt that something was amiss.

His heart suddenly felt empty, as if something was missing.

Si Chengyou thought back repeatedly, but couldn't think of anything he had left behind at Shen's house.

In the end, he concluded that all these wild thoughts were due to having nothing to do.

He worked even harder for three months, but in the end, he returned to square one and continued to ponder why he felt even emptier inside.

Coincidentally, Si Chengyou received a delivery from Shen Yue.

It was called a delivery, but it was actually a gift.

Si Chengyou received Shen Yue's "delivery" from the nervous delivery guy and shortly after, he received a message from Shen Yue.

[Received something?]

It was then that Si Chengyou realized that he and Shen Yue hadn't exchanged messages for several months.

In fact, there were several times when he wanted to say something to Shen Yue, but now that everything was back on track and Shen Hui had a new life, he didn't know where to begin with their secrets.

He typed and deleted countless times, but in the end... he left nothing.

Si Chengyou hadn't opened the gift yet, so he replied to Shen Yue's message first.

[Just received it, but haven't opened it.]

Shen Yue was surprised to see such a long response. She thought that after not talking to her for so long, Si Chengyou would only reply with an "okay."

So, Shen Yue, who had originally decided to give up on giving Si Chengyou a gift, said a few more words.

[A while ago, I was called to do on-site translation and earned my first sum of money. I bought you a gift too.]

In Shen Yue's message, there was the word "too."

This indicated that Shen Yue not only bought a gift for Si Chengyou, but also for other people, and he was just one of them.

However, the key phrases that Si Chengyou saw were "earned my first sum of money" and "bought you a gift."

He opened the gift from Shen Yue, and his once empty heart instantly burst into fireworks, filled with brilliance. Even he didn't know why he felt this way.

The gift Shen Yue gave him was a stuffed Ultraman.

Unlike the hard Ultraman models, it was soft and cute in appearance.

Si Chengyou, as a leader, is decisive and firm. In theory, fluffy and soft things like what he encountered should be incompatible with his personality.

But in reality, Si Chengyou likes it, really likes it.

The plush Ultraman is so adorable!

Si Chengyou brings Ultraman back to his own room. In this bedroom, which is predominantly black and white, the plush Ultraman given by Shen Yue is placed by Si Chengyou's pillow, becoming the cutest scenery in the room.

[It's so cute, thank you. I really like it.]

Si Chengyou looks at the Ultraman in front of him and suddenly realizes something, so he continues to message Shen Yue.

[Can I take you out for dinner today?]

Strangely, when Si Chengyou sends this message, he suddenly feels nervous.

He has never felt this nervous even when devising his world-saving plan.

The screen shows "typing," and as time passes, Si Chengyou's nervousness reaches its peak and then... falls to the bottom.

[I can't today. I have to accompany Huihui to the snack street.]

Si Chengyou doesn't give up and continues to ask, [What about tomorrow?]

[Tomorrow, I have to accompany my fourth brother to buy books and have hotpot.]

[How about the day after tomorrow?]

[The day after tomorrow, my second brother is coming back from filming and he said he'll treat.]

[And the day after the day after tomorrow?]

[The day after the day after tomorrow, there's a club gathering at school.]

As the saying goes, "Misfortunes never come alone." Under a series of setbacks, Si Chengyou no longer has the courage to invite again.

Just when he is about to give up, he suddenly receives a message from Shen Yue.

[What's wrong with you? Why are you acting crazy?]

Suddenly being criticized by Shen Yue, Si Chengyou doesn't know why, but he becomes calm instead. He starts to recall his actions, organizes his words, and then tells Shen Yue what he's been going through.

[For the past few months, I felt like something was missing in my heart. I thought it was because something happened to Shen Hui, but she's fine. I thought it was because I didn't have enough work tasks, so I actively took on several tasks and worked day and night, but something still felt off. It was only when I saw the gift you sent just now that I felt much better.]

[So, I want to see you.]

There's no response for a while, and just when Si Chengyou starts to reflect on whether he said something wrong, Shen Yue suddenly calls him. Si Chengyou hurriedly answers the call.

"Hello." Shen Yue's voice comes from the other end. Although they haven't seen each other for a few months, Si Chengyou feels an indescribable sentiment when he hears her voice.

"I'm here," Si Chengyou responds.

"Si Laoshi, do you know what you're resembling right now?"

Si Chengyou is stunned. Shen Yue has never called him "Laoshi" before. He doesn't like being addressed as a teacher when it comes to Shen Yue. But why does Shen Yue suddenly call him that?

Si Chengyou has a foreboding feeling, but he still follows Shen Yue's words and replies, "Resembling... what?"

On the other end of the phone, Shen Yue seems to chuckle lightly. Although she's only an 18-year-old girl, her laughter is enchanting like a fairy, capable of bewitching hearts.

"Resembling a teenage girl in the throes of first love."

In an instant after the words fall, Si Chengyou feels the heat on his face reaching its peak.

He instinctively retorted, "What are you talking about?"

"Teacher Si, let's meet this Saturday and talk," Shen Yue said.

Si Chengyou was rendered speechless by Shen Yue calling him "Teacher Si." After a long pause, he managed to utter a single word, "Okay."

On the other end of the line, Shen Yue was surprised for a second that Si Chengyou was so easily bullied, and then she felt a moment of guilt.

She didn't tease Si Chengyou any further. She bid a concise farewell, hung up the phone, and then forwarded the photos taken by Shen Jize at the birthday party to Si Chengyou.

Si Chengyou, who had been staring absentmindedly at his phone, hadn't snapped out of it yet. His mind was filled with the sound of Shen Yue calling him "Teacher Si," and his feelings became increasingly strange.

Then, he received the photo sent by Shen Yue.

It was an ordinary yet extraordinary photo.

The people in the photo were him and Shen Yue.

He was feeding Shen Yue a crab leg.

Shen Yue looked very happy while eating.

And the look in his eyes as he looked at Shen Yue... Why would his gaze be like that?

From the perspective of an onlooker, Si Chengyou easily discerned that in that fleeting moment captured in the photo, the gaze he directed at Shen Yue clearly held affection.
