Chapter 88

When Shen Wu's voice appeared, Shen Jize subconsciously shrank back a little. After coming to his senses, he deliberately relaxed. Shen Yue saw all this in her eyes.

She put down the "F4 Torturing Romance History" she was reading and asked Shen Jize, "Fourth brother, do you want to open the door for him?"

Shen Jize nodded and gave the reason why the door needed to be opened, "If I don't open the door for little Wu, he will keep knocking."

Shen Jize paused, then emphasized again, "Keep knocking."

Shen Yue understood.

She listened to the increasingly impatient and forceful knocks coming from outside. She stopped Shen Jize who was about to open the door and started to calmly ask questions and think rationally (not really), "Fourth brother, how long do you think a normal person can continuously keep knocking?" Shen Jize thought about it. He didn't know about others, but "Little Wu knocked for an hour last time."

When Shen Jize didn't go home before, he lived in a house near the school. He knew Shen Wu often came to find him. He deliberately rented all the houses on his floor plus the two floors above and below to avoid disturbing others. But that day Shen Wu's knocks still got him complained about.

At that time, Shen Jize happened to be taking a shower and didn't hear it. Shen Wu persistently kept knocking the whole time.

He only stopped when Shen Jize opened the door.

After listening to Shen Jize's answer, Shen Yue lowered her head and thought for a while. One hour, just enough time to take a nap.

She found a pair of earplugs from her bedside table and handed them to Shen Jize, "Fourth brother, let's sleep first. Anyway, fifth brother won't stop for a while."

Shen Jize hesitated, "But little Wu..."

"He wants to extract experimental materials from Fourth Brother, so he is in such a hurry," Shen Yue said emotionlessly, guessing the truth. "Wait for big brother to come back before going out, in case he is careless and hurts you."

Seeing Shen Jize stunned by her words, Shen Yue took the initiative to put the earplugs on Shen Jize and put them on him. After doing so, Shen Yue seemed to remember something. She took out one of Shen Jize's earplugs again and said, "Fourth brother, you go sleep on my bed, but there's drool on my pillow. You'd better flip it over."

So as not to smell my drool.

Shen Jize was finally shocked back to his senses by Shen Yue's thought process. As he took the other earplug still in Shen Yue's hand, he said in a low voice, "Do we really not need to do anything about little Wu?"

Shen Yue retorted, "Fourth brother, do you want to hurt now?"

Shen Jize pursed his lips and obediently put on the earplugs. He flipped Shen Yue's pillow over and curled up to close his eyes.

Obviously, although Shen Jize kept saying Shen Wu was worried about him, he was still afraid of Shen Wu's behavior in his heart.

Because Shen Wu's behavior was always extreme.

Extremely persistent until his goal was achieved. Shen Yue listened to the continuous knocks outside, converting the sounds into data in her brain to match.

So far, Shen Wu's physical strength was very good. Otherwise, he couldn't have done the dissection work.

Oh, the knocking frequency slowed down a bit. He should feel a little tired.

One hour and twelve minutes twenty-seven seconds later, Shen Wu switched to knock with the other hand.

During this time, Shen Yue could hear the faint footsteps of others coming in. But they were just hurried footsteps.

Everyone knew not to provoke Shen Wu when he was having an episode. Shen Family's fifth young master was not normal.

The knocking grew weaker and weaker, but as Shen Jize said, Shen Wu would never give up before the door opened.

Then the knocking stopped.

But Shen Yue knew it wasn't over.

Sure enough, not long after, she heard a "drip" as her door opened.

Shen Wu stood outside the door with gloomy eyes. His gaze met Shen Yue's as she sat facing the door.

When Shen Wu looked at Shen Yue, his eyes were not those of a relative, but more like an enemy's.

As if Shen Yue had done something wrong to him.

Ordinary people would be afraid when faced with Shen Wu's gaze. They would evade and wonder. But Shen Yue did not.

She just raised her index finger to her lips and whispered before Shen Wu lost it, "Fourth brother is asleep, don't make noise."

Shen Yue saw with her own eyes that Shen Wu opened and closed his mouth after she said this, but didn't say anything in the end.

Finally, after finding Shen Jize, Shen Wu just silently lay next to Shen Jize's bed without saying a word.

Just like that, he held the knife and stared at Shen Jize's back curled up on the bed.

Shen Yue had originally wanted to think more about something, although she didn't know what to think about either. But after the knocking stopped, all that could be heard clearly around her was the slight breathing sounds of Shen Jize and Shen Wu.

In this kind of atmosphere, who could sleep except her?!

So Shen Yue demonstrated falling asleep instantly right on her recliner.

How could I possibly not fall asleep at my age? - Shen Yue

After Shen Yue fell asleep, Shen Wu, who had been silently lying next to Shen Jize's bed, suddenly turned his head and stared closely at Shen Yue. He didn't miss any subtle reactions from her body to make sure she was really asleep. After confirming that Shen Yue was indeed asleep, a rare trace of confusion appeared in Shen Wu's eyes.

He was still here. How could this so-called sister not be afraid of him, let alone sleep in front of him?

Sleeping was when a person lowered their guard and was most vulnerable. Generally, this vulnerable state would only be shown in front of trusted people. Of course, that was generally speaking.

There were also fools who couldn't tell danger was upon them and voluntarily offered their necks to the blade.

Shen Wu approached Shen Yue and looked at her chest rising and falling with her breathing, and the snow-white nape revealed from tilting her head.

And... the blood vessels that now seemed clearly visible.

So beautiful. Is this what a sister is? The one those two were always talking about... their daughter.

Their voices were still clearly remembered by Shen Wu until today.

"Little Five is so beautiful. Too bad he's a boy. It'd be great if he was a girl."

"It doesn't matter. If we want a daughter, we'll just have another one."

"Hmph, easy for you to say. But I want one now. Go buy me some girl's clothes."

"Okay, okay."

That was the beginning of his first nightmare.

【Little Five, so pretty, mommy's good daughter.】

【Mommy, Little Five... Little Five is a boy...】

【How dare you talk to your mother like that? What mommy says is what it is. Don't talk back!】

【Born? It's a girl?!】

【Wife, we finally have a daughter!!】

So the fake daughter was no longer needed.

Looking at Shen Yue, this sister could end his old nightmare, but also brought him new ones.

If this sister died, would those two regret even for a moment how they had treated him?

Shen Wu touched his knife. If he wanted, this sister could stop breathing here permanently in an instant.

Thinking this, Shen Wu placed his knife on Shen Yue's neck.

It was also at this moment that Shen Yue, whose physical responses had all indicated she was in deep sleep, suddenly opened her eyes and shouted outside, "Big brother, look at him!"

Shen Wu's body froze as he turned around to see big brother looking at him expressionlessly.

He was still holding a gold cage in his hands.

Inside was the Toad Number Two that Shen Yichen had just brought back.

The kind that hadn't been dissected yet.
