Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy-Chapter 86: The Mighty Toad

Originally Shen Yue, who was wiping away the tears for the four crybabies, was taken aback when she heard what Shen Wu said. Her hand paused and she suddenly felt strange in her heart.

Test subject.

No wonder she always felt that some of the shapes of Fourth Brother's wounds didn't seem like ones she could have accidentally made.

Speaking of why Shen Yue knew that Shen Jize had many wounds, it had to start with the last time when Shen Jize exerted his strength to defeat Ye Yin.

Ever since Shen Jize defeated Ye Yin last time, he changed from his original stuttering, head lowered, not daring to speak little crybaby, into a little crybaby who would always softly call for little sister, and still stuttering not daring to speak, only now he would stare at Shen Yue.

It seemed there was not much difference compared to before, yet there was a huge difference.

Although Shen Jize was still very cautious and easily frightened most of the time, he would make an obvious effort with his clever brain to cooperate with Shen Yue's thought process when in front of Shen Yue.

In short, they communicated well.

Shen Jize felt that Shen Yue was very good, able to talk to him naturally and willing to play with him.

Shen Yue also felt that Shen Jize was very good, he would listen to every word she said attentively and cooperate with all her actions.

In summary, after various magical communication, the two of them were now finally able to get along well even when Shen Yichen was not home.

Last time when Shen Jize was getting something at home, he accidentally bumped into the corner of a table with his back. It hurt so much he cried out right there. After Shen Yue discovered it, she immediately lifted Shen Jize's clothes to check the wound. Shen Jize had coagulation dysfunction, if he had subcutaneous bleeding it would cause more trouble than normal wounds.

Fortunately, Shen Jize was only in pain that time without bleeding.

But Shen Yue also saw that Shen Jize's back, especially the part around his spine, had some small regular wounds, and also an almost imperceptible pinprick.

Even though Shen Jize would receive regular treatment, the wounds in this location seemed a bit excessive.

Originally planning to find a suitable chance to properly ask Fourth Brother, after all with Fourth Brother's temperament even if someone bullied him he probably wouldn't say. But before Shen Yue could ask, the suspect appeared.

Shen Yue did not leave Shen Jize's side. She just looked at Shen Wu, her gaze falling upon the knife still dripping blood in his hand.

Judging from the flow of the blood, it should be fresh blood within the last 4 minutes.

Minus the 1 minute or so of Shen Wu coming in and saying nonsense, it could be calculated that the living creature killed by the knife in Shen Wu's hand was about 3 minutes ago.

Shen Yue's gaze then fell upon Shen Wu's shoes. Generally one would change into slippers after coming home, but Shen Wu seemed to have come in hurriedly and was still wearing his original shoes. This also allowed Shen Yue to discover the mud still stuck on the soles of his shoes very easily.

The fresh mud, one look and you know it was from their family garden.

Combining the blood on Shen Wu's knife, Shen Yue understood what he did before entering the house.

Regarding Shen Wu's words that seemed to be declaring ownership of Shen Jize, she ignored them. She just turned her head to tell on him to Shen Yichen, "Big brother, he killed your toad."

Shen Yichen, who was originally still thinking about how to explain to Shen Yue that Shen Wu did not actually have malicious intent, was stunned upon hearing Shen Yue's calm narration.

The domineering CEO who lorded over the business world and dominated the home scene had a rare brain freeze for a moment.

The toad, was it the one he raised in the garden?

On the surface this Shen Yichen person seemed a perfect man, talented, hardworking, able to manage subordinates, and caring of his family. But actually no one knew that Shen Yichen had a pathological craving for making money.

For most people, the pursuit of money was to obtain things that brought them joy.

But Shen Yichen was different. His joy stemmed from money itself.

He did not earn money for the sake of money, but for happiness. He greatly enjoyed the feeling of obtaining huge amounts of money through his own efforts.

Moreover, Shen Yichen had many methods of making money, probably encompassing working, conduct, and means.

That toad was something Shen Yichen had specially invited a master to do some magic arts on, then he looked for a renowned fengshui master to meticulously pick the optimal location in the garden to raise, for the purpose of attracting wealth.

Even a domineering CEO could not resist the temptation of a toad, this was Shen Yue's evaluation of that family member - a certain toad.

And now, the toad that Shen Yichen treasured, and even hired special caretakers for, was cut open by Shen Wu.

Upon hearing Shen Yue's words, Shen Wu had not realized the severity of the issue. He even arrogantly lifted his chin, clearly very displeased by Shen Yue's method of changing the topic. "The noisy toad deserved to die for daring to croak at me."

As Shen Wu spoke, he stared at Shen Yue, seemingly meaningful.

Although Shen Jize was a bit afraid of Shen Wu, he was without a doubt the person who understood Shen Wu's personality best. Hearing these words, although he was still crying, he also showed a protective stance toward Shen Yue and softly refuted Shen Wu, "Don't...scare my little sister."

Sniffle sniffle, so pitiful.

Shen Wu's brows furrowed slightly, suddenly somewhat irritated, but he did not say anything. He only moved away the gaze that had been coiling around Shen Yue like a venomous snake.

Just as he was about to say something else, Shen Yichen's voice devoid of any discernable emotion sounded from the side already, "Shen Wu, what did you do to my toad?"

Shen Wu's body stiffened, keenly catching the key word in Shen Yichen's words, "my".

That was big brother's toad?

Shen Wu opened his mouth wanting to explain, but Shen Yue was a step faster speaking clearly, "Big brother, he killed your toad."

Shen Yue's eyes looked towards the surgical knife in Shen Wu's hand, there were still some tissue remnants on it. She added another sentence, "He even dissected the toad!"

As her words fell, Shen Wu's gaze tangled around Shen Yue again. But before he could exert any force, he was taken to the garden by Shen Yichen grabbing him.

Shen Yue watched the departing figures of Shen Wu and Shen Yichen expressionlessly, only gently patting Shen Jize's back, "Fourth brother, don't cry."

Shen Jize drank the milk Shen Yue gave him while stopping his tears, also turning back to comfort Shen Yue, "Little sister, don't be afraid. Little Five is actually...quite good. If he bullies you, I will protect you."

Looking at Shen Jize's red eyes, Shen Yue seriously doubted whether this Fourth Brother's so-called protection was to divert enemy Shen Wu's attention by crying desperately for air.

But she did not say it out. She only sincerely said, "Thank you Fourth Brother."

As for a certain unlucky child who committed a mistake as soon as he returned, after being taken to the garden by Shen Yichen, he was forced to sew the toad's corpse back into a complete state.

And under Shen Yichen's supervision earnestly apologized to the toad, then used his own hands to make a small mound of earth to bury the corpse in, finally erecting a gravestone.

It was engraved with, Toad Number One.
