Chapter 91

Shen Yue slowly opened the refrigerator and saw neatly arranged puddings on the second shelf.

She didn't know when it started, but the refrigerator, which was originally only used to store ingredients, was gradually filled with some of the snacks she liked.

The puddings were placed by big brother. Big brother's habit was to start arranging things from the left, then arrange them in order of importance and size.

Yogurt was her favorite, placed in the front. The different flavors were arranged from left to right according to her preferences.

Puddings were next in the second row, followed by smaller cakes and cookies pushed to the back.

As for the canned candies placed on the other side, they must have been put there by Fourth Brother.

Candies didn't need to be put in the fridge, but Fourth Brother was like this. He didn't know what was right but wanted to participate, so he would put some out of place things, hoping to make them noticeable at a glance.

This was Fourth Brother's lovely little scheme.

Unfortunately, not everyone could respond to such harmless schemes with goodwill and play along.

Shen Yue took two candies from the candy jar, planning to eat them in front of Fourth Brother later to show that she already knew.

Just after closing the refrigerator door, she heard footsteps behind her.

She turned around and it was indeed Shen Wu.

Shen Yue didn't speak. She was waiting for Shen Wu to speak first.

The big sister said that unless the difference in strength was huge, the boss usually spoke the least and was the last one to speak.

She wanted to be the one who spoke last.

Under Shen Yue's silence, Shen Wu's half-hour time limit was clearly about to run out. He had to recopy the list of over 500 things he was not allowed to do 20 times, so he had to speak first and ask, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Why should I be afraid of you?" Shen Yue asked back.

"I just held a knife to your neck. Big brother said people are usually scared in this situation," Shen Wu said.

Shen Yue wiped the condensation on the pudding box and nodded, "Big brother is right."

Anyway, listening to big brother was always right.

This was clearly not the answer Shen Wu wanted to hear.

"When I was almost 5 years old, I almost skinned that dog," Shen Wu blurted out. It seemed casual, but Shen Wu's eyes hadn't left Shen Yue at all.

When his parents found out about it at the time, they looked at him in horror. Although big brother repeatedly assured them for him, he was still not allowed to get close to any of the family pets afterwards.

Including everyone who knew about this incident, they all looked at him strangely.

He remembered that look. Big brother told him it was fear.

Admittedly, he didn't know what fear was, nor would he feel guilty about it. But he still found it annoying.

He also didn't know why he was asking Shen Yue this question. Previously, this so-called younger sister had never caught his attention.

He also didn't know what answer he expected from Shen Yue, or rather, this test didn't need a result.

Shen Yue was indeed confused by Shen Wu's random words, but she always grasped the key points well. Even such messy words, she could accurately find the loophole.

"Why was it almost?"

Shen Wu: "...The aunt who took care of the dog found out."

Shen Yue looked at her pudding again. The caramel on it needed to be eaten quickly after leaving the fridge, otherwise the caramel would melt.

As she put the pudding back into the fridge, she asked, "What happened then?"

"Then big brother scolded me," Shen Wu said abruptly. It seemed irrelevant, but Shen Wu's eyes hadn't left Shen Yue at all.

When Shen Yue heard this, it was as if a switch had been flipped. She suddenly sighed wisely, "He scolded me too."

Shen Wu inexplicably forgot his original intention and couldn't help asking, "What did he say about you?"

"He said I shouldn't drink so much yogurt all the time, or I'll turn into yogurt," Shen Yue said. The emotions expressed in her words when she said this sentence... Shen Wu could be sure they were at least richer than when facing him.

Then Shen Wu watched as Shen Yue said not to drink so much yogurt while taking out a bottle of yogurt from the fridge. 𝗳r𝚎eπ˜„πžbπš—π—Όveπš•.co𝗺

Obviously not caring at all about what he just said about the dog.

Shen Yue was not afraid.

This was Shen Wu's conclusion.

He looked at Shen Yue, who had turned around again, and for the first time today, spoke to Shen Yue in a normal conversational tone, "Why does Fourth Brother like you?"

Shen Yue still had that matter-of-fact expression. "Fourth Brother also likes you."

Shen Wu was stunned into silence for a good while before saying, "He's afraid of me."

Shen Yue said again, "He's also afraid of me."

Shen Wu finally realized something was wrong. He stared at Shen Yue half-doubtfully and half-certainly, "Are you copying me?"

Shen Yue said, "Imitation is human nature."

"I'm going to kill you."

"Then I'll kill you too."

"You can't kill me."

"You can't kill me either."

This was the first time Shen Wu engaged in a meaningless spat with someone else. Usually, he was true to his word.

After going back and forth with Shen Yue twice, he obviously realized something was off and took the initiative to stop talking.

It was just that the irritability in his heart that had wanted to vent out earlier because of worrying about Fourth Brother seemed to have dissipated a little.

That is, until Shen Yue said the next sentence.

"Shen Wu, if big brother heard what you just said, he would definitely scold you. Who talks about killing all day and holds knives around?"

Shen Wu was silent, reminded of bad memories.

He suddenly remembered that every time big brother had scolded him today was related to Shen Yue in some way.

Thank you. The annoyance that had just subsided rose again.

"You said it too," Shen Wu mercilessly pointed out Shen Yue's double standard.

Shen Yue nodded. "I did say it, but big brother didn't hear it."

Extremely matter-of-fact. This was another time today that Shen Wu was shocked by Shen Yue's attitude.

He always felt that no matter what happened, Shen Yue would react completely differently from normal people.

In other words, weird.

Seeing that Shen Wu had said enough, Shen Yue turned to go eat candy with Fourth Brother. But she saw Shen Yichen standing not far behind her, watching her.

Shen Yichen: ......

Shen Yue: ......

Shen Yue suddenly understood the meaning behind Shen Wu's inexplicable smile earlier.

That dog had set her up.

Shen Yue's eyes widened as she met Shen Yichen's helpless yet handsome face.

"I heard that. Shen Yue, you and Shen Wu will copy together," Shen Yichen said.

Shen Yue blinked, trying to act cute, but then heard Shen Yichen say another sentence, "No dinner if you don't finish copying."

In an instant, Shen Yue felt like she had been struck by lightning on a sunny day. The sadness she emitted was almost palpable.

Shen Wu looked at Shen Yue in confusion, not understanding why Shen Yue's emotional emission was a little different from what he had studied over the years.

He felt it could be collected as an individual sample to gather some data.

To help him pretend to be normal better.

Of course, Shen Wu definitely didn't mean to learn from Shen Yue. On the contrary, he regarded Shen Yue as a negative example, being careful not to become as weird as her.

Shen Yue still didn't know that just because of her lazy pure imitation earlier, she had already become a strange thing in Shen Wu's mind.
