After Shen Hui left Shen Shuangchen, she commanded a professional "driver" to move Su Yunan to the lab. Shen Yue followed closely behind.
Shen Hui carelessly threw Su Yunan on the ground and turned on the machines in the lab, preparing to do something unknown.
Shen Yue observed Shen Hui's actions for a while but could not understand them as usual. So she squatted next to Su Yunan and studied the differences between this Su Yunan and the one in her memories.
After finishing her own business, Shen Hui saw Shen Yue squatting and went over to squat next to Shen Yue. She asked, "Aren't you scared anymore?"
Shen Yue looked at Shen Hui and shook her head. "What did third brother say just now?"
"Third brother called his superior and roughly explained some of what happened, but did not go into details. It seems they have arranged to meet today."
Shen Yue oh-ed and her gaze fell back onto Su Yunan again. "This person looks around the same age as us."
Shen Hui nodded. "He grew up with me. I developed the brain, he developed the body. To put it in outsiders' words, we can be considered childhood sweethearts."
Shen Hui briefly mentioned the past in a few words, but Shen Yue knew things were not as simple as Shen Hui made them out to be.
Shen Hui sought vengeance over the smallest grievance, even to the extent of preferring to wrong the world rather than let the world wrong her. If Su Yunan was just an insignificant person, she would not have brought Su Yunan back and would have just eliminated him directly.
It was the same in the previous timeline as well. Although Shen Hui had used drugs to control Su Yunan, she did not turn him completely into a machine but still let him retain his own thoughts.
As Shen Yue looked at Su Yunan, she suddenly said to Shen Hui, "His martial arts skills are pretty good. How about keeping him at the Shen house as your bodyguard?"
Shen Hui's hand which was about to inject something into Su Yunan paused. She looked at Shen Yue incredulously. Shen Yue went on unconcernedly, "Since he was experimented on from a young age, he definitely did not have the opportunity to study properly. Why don't you let him go to school first? It would work out perfectly for him to stick close by your side and protect you."
Subconsciously, Shen Hui reached out and stroked Shen Yue's head to check if she had a fever before asking, "Did you get scared silly?"
Shen Yue had a grave look on her face as she made an effort to demonstrate her astuteness. Staring into Shen Hui's eyes, she said, "Huihui, look closely into my eyes."
Shen Hui started examining Shen Yue's beautiful eyes attentively.
Shen Yue asked, "Do you see anything?"
After a period of silence, Shen Hui got up, took out a wet wipe from her bag next to her, and wiped Shen Yue's face. "You didn't wipe the oil from the grilled sausage you just ate cleanly."
Shen Yue was undaunted and persisted in asking, "Other than the oil from the grilled sausage, do you see anything else?"
So Shen Hui wiped Shen Yue's hands as well.
Just now when she had pushed Shen Yue to the ground, she got dust on herself. And when they hurried back just now, Shen Yue did not have the chance to wash up yet.
Still dissatisfied, Shen Yue said, "Other than wiping my hands, is there anything else?"
Shen Hui examined Shen Yue's beautiful eyes once more and shook her head.
Finally, Shen Yue could not resist giving the answer herself. "Did you not see the wisdom in my eyes? Huihui, I'm your older sister, you have to believe in your sister's wisdom."
Shen Hui: ......
She was a little speechless but Shen Hui did not want to refute Shen Yue. After living together with Shen Yue for so long, Shen Hui knew better than anyone that although Shen Yue usually seemed lazy and clumsy in her actions, she was very reliable when it came to major events.
At the very least, Shen Yue's decisions were much more mature than hers.
She seldom rejected Shen Yue's requests. On the surface, it looked like she was indulging Shen Yue but Shen Hui was very clear herself that on the contrary, this was Shen Yue indulging her.
While catering to her wishes, Shen Yue was also helping her adapt to her surroundings, allowing her to gradually gain things she never had before. This was also the most important reason she was willing to accept Shen Yue.
"Shen Yue, what do you want to do?"
Having been called by name, Shen Yue was immediately unhappy. "You have to call me sister. Call me sister and I'll tell you."
Shen Hui was silent and did not call her that.
After a while, Shen Yue still said it out herself. "I think... we should keep this person called Su Yunan by your side. This is your past. You can take your past with you towards a new future. I will accompany you on the road ahead."
Shen Hui understood what Shen Yue meant.
Shen Yue wanted her to not be shackled by the past.
However, not being shackled by the past was easy to say but hard to accomplish. How could she not be concerned about her past? Then how does she account for all the pain she suffered? And where should she vent her resentments?
Those two deserved to die.
The group of people who supported their research deserved to die too.
They all deserved to die!
She escaped for the sake of taking revenge. She wanted those people to perish amidst their own greed.
Shen Yue did not receive a positive response from Shen Hui but this was already the answer.
Shen Yue did not mind. This was not something that could be accomplished in one go anyway. Let's take it slow. At the very least, they had to catch those two masterminds first.
If those two were caught, it would also be better for Shen Hui.
Shen Yue reached out and patted Shen Hui on the shoulder. "I'm sorry, Huihui. Just do what you want. Don't worry, before you fall into a pit and get covered in mud, I'll pull you back out."
Shen Hui's face darkened. What kind of bizarre analogy was this? Also, "How do you know there's definitely mud inside the pit?"
With utmost solemnity, Shen Yue said, "I've fallen in before. It's that pit in our garden. I even dug out a handful of mud."
Shen Hui got sidetracked by Shen Yue. By the time she reacted again and looked at Su Yunan, she could not make a move somehow.
The current Su Yunan had been brainwashed by those two to want to kill her. If she restored Su Yunan's original state, would Su Yunan stand on her side then?
Shen Hui wanted to ask Shen Yue but before she opened her mouth, just being looked at by Shen Yue was as if she already knew the answer.
He would.
Su Yunan would stand on her side. That was why Shen Yue asked her to keep this person around.
Shen Hui, believe in Shen Yue's judgement.
She put away the syringe in her hand and said to Shen Yue, "Let's ask eldest brother first whether he's willing for Su Yunan to stay."
Shen Yue smiled delightedly. "Eldest brother will agree. He's really nice."
If he didn't agree, she would threaten him with his frog!
Shen Yue had found out that the frog eldest brother brought back this time was extremely precious. Not only had it bathed in holy light, it had been birthed right in front of the God of Wealth while Buddhist scriptures were being chanted!
This was a heaven-ordained frog!
If eldest brother did not agree, she would collude with fifth brother to assassinate this heaven-ordained frog!
On the other side, Shen Yichen, who was on the way back after hearing that his superior was coming, suddenly had an ominous premonition. He had this kind of premonition many times before and was already prepared to deal with it.
He immediately called the butler. "Old Zhao, go take a look at my toad."
