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

Chapter 167

"Ahhhhh, I'm done for, Boss Lai Xiu is definitely going to kill me!"

LA patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "What are you afraid of? Just say I forced you to do it!"

"Wahhh, Boss LA, you're so kind."

Shen Yue obtained a mattress and secretly rejoiced in her heart that she could sleep well tonight.

Just then, Danni La pulled Shen Yue and said, "Yue, you're too conspicuous like this. There will definitely be a lot of trouble afterwards. You can do it like this instead..."

Danni La quickly taught Shen Yue the ropes before anyone else could react. After a while, Shen Yue had learned the basics.

So when LA asked Shen Yue in front of everyone how she had won earlier, Shen Yue shrank behind inmate 14 like a frightened little white rabbit. Her eyes glistened brightly, making her entire face look exquisite yet fragile.

"I don't know how I won either. I was just trying my luck, didn't expect to actually win. Everyone here is so capable yet they were still willing to let me have my way. I'm truly grateful. Master, they must have let me win to give you face. Please don't ask about it anymore."

LA: ?

This doesn't seem like what I taught her the other day.

Shouldn't Shen Yue honestly explain to him all sorts of messy analytical details? How did she learn to use him as a scapegoat?

Not bad, learned pretty quick.

However, LA still felt something was off. Shen Yue's current appearance resembled someone very much. Who was it again?

LA's eyes drifted left and right until they finally landed on Danni La.

Recalling the news his underling had passed to him the other day, plus Danni La's inseparable company with Shen Yue recently, LA suddenly understood.

So Danni La had chosen her path. How interesting. He was very curious what Shen Yue would eventually become.

Although Shen Yue already possessed the skills to get by in Building 8, he still felt she didn't belong there. If he had to put it in words, Shen Yue was too clean.

She had a kind of clean blackness to her. She could face all the darkness expressionlessly yet wouldn't be tainted after accepting it all.

All the blackness within her pointed in the same direction. Although LA didn't know Shen Yue's ultimate goal, he knew during her days at Building 8, it was just as she had said initially ? to learn about human nature.

She wouldn't indulge in Building 8's decadent pleasures. She would only coldly watch those who were swallowed by desire fall into the abyss, then analyze them.

Tsk, frightening woman.

Initially, the blackness on Shen Yue wasn't hard to see through. One look and you'd know not to provoke her. But now, if she learned to use weakness and feminine charm as disguise from Danni La, then that would be incredibly dangerous.

As expected, after Shen Yue finished speaking, although everyone knew her words were questionable, no one doubted them.

Sometimes, the authenticity of words isn't determined by facts, but by whether the majority chooses to believe them or not.

The gamblers here all knew Shen Yue was just a newbie who had barely learned anything. Losing to such a newbie was unacceptable no matter what.

At this time, Shen Yue had given them a way out. Not only did she provide them with a reasonable excuse, she also prevented them from pursuing the matter further, otherwise it would be disrespect towards LA.

LA understood, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he played along.

Firstly, Shen Yue was acknowledged by inmate 14 after all and treated 14 well usually too, so protecting her a little wouldn't hurt.

Secondly, he wanted to see Si Chengyou get bitten by a harmless beast disguised in sheep's clothing. That would definitely be super entertaining.

And so, the commotion faded away quietly.

Everyone said on that night, LA's disciple wanted a mattress. They had all received LA's help before, so they unanimously let Shen Yue win the mattress. LA was also very happy they gave him this face.

Two days later, Shen Yue received the mattress she had won. It was huge and couldn't even fit on the Newcomer Building's bed, half of it sticking out. But Shen Yue was very satisfied.

"Inmate 14, did you give him the money?" Shen Yue asked via her earpiece.

"He has received it. I confirmed the price of this mattress and gave him every cent."

"Good."

Si Chengyou had said to never accept anything from Building 8 during her time there, even if she won it gambling fair and square. Once she accepted something for free, she would be trapped by the thrill of unearned rewards, unable to break free.

Human desire was endless, and so was gambling. 𝒻𝘳𝓮ℯ𝑤𝘦𝒷𝓷𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝓂

So this mattress couldn't be won, it had to be bought.

Shen Yue would also return all the chips she won to LA.

The money she used for meals still came from inmate 14's clean money.

Although inmate 14 never said it, Shen Yue knew he was always happy whenever she used his money.

Shen Yue had considered waiting until she passed her newcomer period before completing tasks to return 14's money. But when she mentioned it that day, inmate 14 became dejected as if abandoned. So Shen Yue didn't bring it up again.

She could analyze inmate 14's mentality now. Perhaps providing her survival necessities in prison was inmate 14's perceived value of existence. If so, then she shouldn't rob others of their value.

"I bumped into LA earlier. He said you're barred from Building 8 for the next two weeks. The Building 8 head is throwing a tantrum over the mattress incident so LA needs two weeks to placate him." Inmate 14 continued his report from the other end.

Shen Yue had also guessed this might happen, which was why she didn't go with inmate 14 and instead let him deliver the money alone.

Inmate 14 was quick on his feet ? if anything happened, he would certainly get away or even beat them up instead. But if she went, that likely wouldn't be the case. She was too weak and would only drag him down.

Shen Yue wasn't concerned over Building 8 matters. Since she was temporarily banned from Building 8, it meant Danni La could teach her even more things.

Putting everything else aside, from this mattress incident alone, Shen Yue tangibly felt the advantages given to "the weak".

The strong would be regarded warily while the weak unconsciously lowered others' guard ? really wonderful.

However, imagination was beautiful while reality was cruel.

She thought that without having to go to Building 8 or deal with Si Chengyou, she could have a peaceful time metamorphosing into a little white rabbit with Danni La. But who would've thought, Tang Wei finally came knocking.

Right at her door.

"I'm here to apologize! I was suddenly taken away for guard duty for over half a month. You didn't forget about me, did you~?"

Shen Yue looked at Tang Wei, then at inmate 14 poised to attack behind him. She answered expressionlessly, "Do you need something from me?"
