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

Chapter 40: It’s good to have a sister.



Chapter 40

Shen Shuangyi glanced at Li Xing with one eye slanted, swallowed the food in her mouth, and calmly said, "Don't you think you're meddling a bit too much?"

Li Xing continued smiling, "I didn't intend to get involved at first, but doesn't Teacher Shen think Shen Yue has gone a bit overboard these past few days? I heard from Little Nuo that Shen Yue seems to have suffered some harm at school, but that's not a reason for her to impose pain on others here. "

Shen Shuangyi looked at Li Xing with a "you're crazy" expression and was about to speak when Jiang Shiwen had already started talking first, "Are you crazy? Sticking up for women again? Can't you not play the warm man role or you'll die? How did my sister end up with a guy like you?"

Li Xing's hand clenched into a fist at his side, but quickly relaxed again. Even though Jiang Shiwen had said such offensive words, he didn't respond directly. He just kept biting on Shen Yue and said, "Shiwen, you have misunderstood me, but now is not the time to talk about this. Ms. Zou has been very upset by Shen Yue these past few days. She even suffered all kinds of difficulties from you guys to apologize. We still have to work together and shoot the show for the next four days. I just want an explanation."

Shen Shuangyi raised her brows and pressed Jiang Shiwen's hand down. She disdainfully said, "What kind of explanation do you want?"

Li Xing's smile faded slightly as he looked at Shen Yue. "What I want is not much. I just hope that Shen Yue can accept Ms. Zou's cake, which contains all her hard work, and say a simple thank you."

"Are you crazy? Sister Yue can't speak..."

"Little Nuo said Shen Yue was able to speak at school, but why can't she speak on the show? Ultimately, isn't the reason Teacher Shen, you spoil her too much as her brother?"

"Children who misbehave should be taught properly, not allowed to do whatever they want."

Dong Nuo walked in from outside. Hearing Li Xing mention his name, he walked to the other side with some unease holding his bowl.

Although Li Xing had not made a move these past few days, he had been observing.

Before coming, he already knew the guests on this show were either wealthy or noble, but Shen Shuangyi was probably an accident.

He also mixes in the entertainment industry, and is very clear that not only does Shen Shuangyi not have backing, she is often plotted against by others, barely making it through each time.

So the show team inviting Shen Shuangyi was probably to use her for ratings, completely different from other real rich consortiums.

The only thing he couldn't confirm was Shen Shuangyi's sister.

At first glance, Shen Shuangyi didn't care at all about this so-called sister, and even had a bad attitude, making him suspect Shen Yue might be the daughter of a wealthy consortium. To chase stars, she invested in the show team and was arranged next to Shen Shuangyi, which is why Shen Shuangyi was very unhappy.

But today Dong Nuo said Shen Yue is a student at Four Seas School. Not only does she need to buy things for others at school, but she was also cheated.

The ethos of this school is notoriously bad in upper class circles.

For someone to be ordered around and cheated at Four Seas School, their family background must also be at the very bottom.

After judging these points, Li Xing planned today's actions.

These past few days, apart from some harmless bickering with Jiang Shiwen, the other events related to him were too ordinary. He needed an explosive incident that would not harm his career but boost his popularity. At the same time, if he handled the disagreement between Shen Yue and Zou Xuezheng well, he could also increase his favorability with Zou Xuezheng's side.

That way, even if he no longer relied on Jiang Shiwen's sister in the future, he could still have other connections.

Shen Yue undoubtedly had psychological trauma regarding school. Such people, when stimulated, would instinctively hurt others as a way to protect themselves.

What he said just now was meant to stimulate Shen Yue.

But unexpectedly, after he said so much, not only did Shen Yue not get angry, she even served food to Shen Shuangyi, as if silently soothing something.

Shen Shuangyi looked at the clove of garlic Shen Yue had served him, somewhat speechless, but the anger in his heart dissipated a lot. He no longer looked at Li Xing, as if he didn't even see him at all. "It's just a cake. I can afford it too. Say one more thing and I'll smack that so-called cake of heart's blood on your head."

Li Xing stared at Shen Shuangyi in disbelief. He didn't expect Shen Shuangyi to really dare to smash him with the cake.

As if responding to Li Xing's confusion, Shen Shuangyi sneered disdainfully, "I never joke around."

He glanced again at the worshipfully (not really) watching Shen Yue, and continued, "The boy you mentioned is actually the caretaker our family hired for Shen Yue. Not only did he not take good care of his employer, he got greedy thoughts. He has already been fired by our family. What, do you want to be fired by your company too?"

Shen Shuangyi's words were a double entendre. Although Li Xing kept telling himself that Shen Shuangyi was just an ordinary celebrity without this kind of power, his heart still betrayed him.

Facing Shen Shuangyi, he was actually afraid.

"Li Xing, just focus on the show and manage your image properly. Don't let your fans discover you're two-faced."

After Shen Shuangyi finished speaking, he sat back down on the stool as if nothing had happened, and was greeted by two little ones and one medium-sized pair of Cara Delevingne's starry eyes.

Li Xing stood in place, stunned for a while. He really couldn't think of anything to refute Shen Shuangyi and could only retreat in order to advance.

But before leaving, he still stubbornly said, "It seems that Miss Shen being like this, Teacher Shen's doting is inexcusable."

Shen Shuangyi didn't even lift his eyelids. "Scram."

Li Xing unwillingly left.

Dong Nuo had also disappeared at some point, while Zou Xuezheng didn't even come to the dining room at all.

Jiang Shiwen chattered on about how cool Shen Shuangyi was, with Zou Xuerong occasionally chiming in agreement.

Shen Yue stared at her bowl for a while, then suddenly looked at Shen Shuangyi. In a slightly hoarse voice from not speaking for a long time, she said, "Thank you, brother."

In that moment, the noisy dining room fell silent.

That day held very different meanings for Shen Shuangyi.

His younger sister who had autism had spoken again because of him.

It was as if a dying person had struggled to live on because of him.

Shen Shuangyi's heart beat faster than ever before, not for anything else, only...

Didn't this make him seem like his sister's savior?

Even though Shen Yichen soon told Shen Shuangyi the truth about why Shen Yue couldn't speak, Shen Shuangyi still couldn't forget the throbbing he felt in his heart at that time.

He always felt that having a little sister was actually quite nice.
