Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy-Chapter 227: The Meaning of Life
Chapter 227
Shen Jize nodded busily, suddenly feeling somewhat scared afterwards, "Last time when Eldest Brother found out that we ate fries at the school gate, he got really angry and canceled my card for a long time. During that time, the academic materials I bought were all paid for by Little Wu's money. Thankfully Little Wu has two cards."
Shen Shuangyi successfully recalled the strange memory and remembered that for a period of time whenever Eldest Brother saw him going out, Eldest Brother would just say "Were the fries tasty?" almost giving him psychological trauma.
Shen Wu also nodded, "Eldest Brother made me copy the harms of oily and fried junk food so many times, it seems to be placed together with one of his notebooks."
Shen Yue also chimed in with his opinion, but he was talking about completely different content, "But fries dipped in ketchup are really tasty, dipping in hot sauce is not bad either."
Upon hearing Shen Yue's words, everyone simultaneously recalled something. Finally Shen Shuangyi helplessly spoke up, "Then this time make sure you wipe your mouth clean, don't let Eldest Brother find out again."
Shen Yue immediately responded, "Ok!"
Under Shen Yue's expectant gaze, the others also forgot about the doubts they had towards Shen Hui just now. Their minds were only filled with one thought - this time while eating fries, they must take back what belonged to them! They must not let Eldest Brother find out again!
Even though they were just going to a fast food restaurant, the few of them walked out with the aura of heroes marching to their death.
After all, only those with the same eldest brother would understand this kind of pain.
Shen Hui did not understand, so much that when she saw this, there was only one thought in her mind - she felt that the Shen family brothers did not seem very smart.
Unlike when the desperate Third Brother had pleaded to her for help, and also unlike Eldest Brother who always seemed to have things under control, seeing these people huddled together discussing how to secretly eat fries made them look just like fools to her.
Among them, Shen Yue was the biggest fool.
Now, Shen Hui could not definitively say what kind of madman Shen Yue was. She would have to observe further.
Thus, she followed the few of them to the fast food restaurant and started eating fries together with them.
This was Shen Hui’s first time eating fries, but she did not show it. Instead, she would first look at how others ate before starting.
She saw Shen Yue tearing open the box of ketchup and dipping the fries in it while eating, so she followed suit.
Shen Yue ate one fry dipped in ketchup, then one dipped in hot sauce, alternating between the two flavors. He looked extremely happy.
The others did not seem to like the food as much as Shen Yue did, but seeing how happy Shen Yue was, their eyes also contained laughter.
Everything appeared matter-of-fact, as if nothing had changed because of her presence at all.
While eating, Shen Hui suddenly asked, "Why do you like eating this kind of stuff?"
When Shen Hui spoke out, she had purely been curious and did not harbor much malice. But somehow when the words left her mouth they sounded thorny. 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪
Shen Hui realized this but did not try to remedy it. Instead, she just looked at Shen Yue like that.
Yes, her tone had not been good, so what of it?
Could she expect Shen Yue to still treat her amiably?
Shen Wu subconsciously frowned, Shen Jize’s face was full of astonishment and even some fear.
This newly arrived sister was not easy to provoke. With Eldest Brother not around now, he didn’t know if just the few of them would be able to restrain her.
Shen Shuangyi was already prepared to start scolding. After all, he was known as the “top flamer in the national server” in the entertainment industry.
But before the flamer could muster his diatribe, he was interrupted by Shen Yue. Shen Yue was not only unaffected by Shen Hui’s “vicious words”, but even replied with a smile: "The meaning of life lies in french fries."
Shen Hui: ?
Seeing Shen Hui’s lack of understanding, Shen Yue explained further, "Eating junk food is one of life's greatest pleasures, but Eldest Brother cannot find out, otherwise the pleasure will turn into pain."
At this time Shen Hui still did not know what that sentence meant. She only felt that the Shen Yue from daytime and the Shen Yue from last night seemed completely different—like he was just blurting out nonsense.
However, no matter how Shen Hui felt inwardly, she obediently finished the fries in front of her. To be honest, the taste had not been bad.
After eating, she saw everyone checking themselves for fry residue.
Just as she was hesitating whether she should check herself too, she suddenly became alert. Why should she be doing the same thing as the others?
Shen Yue noticed Shen Hui hadn’t moved and stopped checking himself either. He picked up a tissue and went straight to wipe Shen Hui’s face. Shen Hui subconsciously dodged it and looked warily at Shen Yue, "What are you doing?"
Shen Yue acted as if it was only natural, "I'm helping you check, otherwise Eldest Brother will scold all of us when he finds out later."
While speaking, Shen Yue disregarded Shen Hui’s resistance and wiped her mouth for her.
Moreover, he not only wiped her mouth, but also checked her hair and clothes, only leaving happily after confirming there were no fry remnants left.
For a moment Shen Hui did not know what to think. She could only sulk by herself, but she wasn’t even sure what exactly she was sulking about.
Was it jealousy? It seemed so, but that wasn't exactly right.
Was it puzzlement? Puzzled that Shen Yue could still smile despite clearly knowing he had been abandoned?
Was it anticipation? Anticipation towards Shen Yue’s so-called “protection”.
Shen Hui had not figured herself out yet when Shen Yichen saw right through her at the hospital.
Shen Yichen’s face was dark. The others besides Shen Hui all had their heads drooped as they stood in a row before Shen Yichen, contrasting Shen Hui’s increasingly conspicuous image like that of a newborn calf, unaware of the difficulties ahead.
"Were the fries you all ate this morning tasty?" Shen Yichen looked exceedingly happy.
