Afterwards when Si Chengyou went to the Shens again, he didn't pull any more stunts and handed the matchmaker over to Shen Hui, asking her how to dispose of it.
But Shen Hui said there was currently no way to destroy this thing. If she wanted to figure out a method, it would take her a few more decades. Before that, they could only keep it to themselves.
When Shen Hui handed the matchmaker back to Si Chengyou, this scene happened to be seen by Shen Yue who was just about to take a stroll around the lab.
So Shen Yue realized that Si Chengyou had obtained the matchmaker, and it was given to him voluntarily by Shen Hui.
Shen Hui's willingness to hand over the matchmaker also meant that Shen Hui had let go, was ready to move forward, and live her own life.
It was also time for her to find someone else.
Seeing Si Chengyou appear in the lab, Shen Yue tilted her head at him and winked before saying goodbye to Shen Hui, "You seem to have something going on, I'll get going."
Shen Hui immediately said, "There's nothing."
But Shen Yue still didn't plan on staying. She continued walking out, "I'll go get you some water. You need to stay hydrated."
"I don't..." want any.
Before Shen Hui could finish, Shen Yue had already left.
Seeing this, Si Chengyou also put the matchmaker away and left Shen Hui's lab.
After walking out of the lab for a few steps, Si Chengyou saw Shen Yue waiting to the side.
He walked over, didn't feel like anything was wrong, and naturally asked, "How can I help you?"
Shen Yue responded even more naturally, "There's someone called Tang Yi in Country X. I want him to come work for the Shens, and bring his family with him. He's very capable. If he works here for a few years, he'll definitely be able to get a green card for permanent residence."
Si Chengyou didn't ask why, he just confirmed, "Is this his own wish?"
"My wish is his wish."
Si Chengyou was slightly surprised. He rarely saw Shen Yue be so insistent. And whenever Shen Yue insisted, it meant the matter was very important.
"I understand. I'll have someone bring him over. But it'll take some time from overseas."
Shen Yue nodded. "As long as you can find his current address and recent whereabouts, after I meet him, I have ways to persuade him to come over."
After hearing Shen Yue's words, Si Chengyou belatedly realized, "You mean you want to go over too?"
"Of course. Only I can persuade Tang Yi."
Seeing that Shen Yue didn't seem to realize the kind of situation she was in, Si Chengyou finally couldn't help but remind her, "Your fourth oldest brother is classified personnel. It's very sensitive for you as his family member to go abroad."
Shen Yue stared matter-of-factly at Si Chengyou. "Si Chengyou, please help."
Si Chengyou: ...Alright.
"Have you told your oldest brother about this?"
"Si Chengyou, please help."
Alright, so even Shen Yichen doesn't know about this yet.
Si Chengyou then belatedly realized something. If Shen Yue hasn't told Shen Yichen about this matter, how can she guarantee that Tang Yi will be able to come work for the Shens?
Although Shen Yue is the sixth child of the Shens, she doesn't have that kind of authority. So...
"Regarding Mr. Shen..."
"Please help."
"Okay... I'll prepare Tang Yi's documents and discuss in detail with Mr. Shen. However, Shen Hui and Niu Kaihuai's project presentation is nearing its final stages. The world's eyes are on them right now. If you go abroad, Shen Hui will definitely insist on going with you. At that time, many actions will be restricted."
"Please help."
"Also, your other brothers, especially your second brother..."
"Please help."
"Your fifth brother..."
"Please help."
"You..."
"Please help."
Si Chengyou understood. He completely gave up on communicating with Shen Yue, and reluctantly sighed, "Alright, I can handle the other matters for you. You'll have to talk to Shen Hui yourself."
Shen Yue's ears twitched, her nose instantly picked up the smell of gossip. "Why?"
The sky had already darkened slightly, but it was still bright enough for Shen Yue to clearly see the fleeting unease flash across Si Chengyou's handsome and sculpted face. "It's nothing."
Shen Yue wouldn't let it go. She oppressively took another step closer to Si Chengyou. "Nothing means there is something. If you don't tell me, I'll just guess, and maybe even guess other things."
Si Chengyou glanced left and right, confirming no one else was around, and the only gardener absolutely couldn't hear them. Only then did he lean in next to Shen Yue's ear and whisper, "I'm a little...afraid of Shen Hui."
After saying that, Si Chengyou immediately stood up straight. His expression was flawless! He looked simply like an iron-faced, unselfish superior.
If one ignored the fact that he was afraid of 15-year-old Shen Hui.
However, the idea of 20-year-old Si Chengyou with 12 layers of memory being afraid of 15-year-old Shen Hui was hilarious no matter how one thought about it.
Just thinking about Si Chengyou having to endure his fear and teach Shen Hui classes was even more funny.
"Pfft." Shen Yue laughed in what she believed was discreet but was actually blatant.
Si Chengyou pressed his lips slightly. His tone was serious, "Don't laugh."
"I'm not...pfft...laughing."
"You laughed again."
Shen Yue controlled her expression. "Really not."
"I heard it." He sounded a little aggrieved.
Seeing that her laugh seemed to have truly attacked Si Chengyou, Shen Yue started thinking of ways to make up for it.
After all, Si Chengyou had just agreed to help her with Tang Yi's matter, so her laughing at him really wasn't very nice.
Shen Yue thought for a long time, and asked, "Want pudding?"
Normally, to cater to Shen Yue, Si Chengyou would say yes.
But now...
In order for Shen Yue to know he was upset, Si Chengyou very clearly rejected Shen Yue's overture.
He had to let Shen Yue know that casually mocking superiors was very inappropriate.
Shen Yue did indeed understand her rudeness. After thinking for a while more, she came up with another perfect way to coax him. "From now on when you teach classes, I'll help watch over Huihui for you."
Hearing this, Si Chengyou's slightly pursed lips finally slowly regained their normal shape. After another moment, he said, "Okay."
Seeing that she had coaxed the 3-year-old, Shen Yue made her offer again, "Want pudding?"
Si Chengyou was shameless. "I want five puddings. My oldest brother came back too."
"I think there are only four puddings left."
"Then four is fine. My oldest brother doesn't need to eat any."
Sitting at home being dragged to play a pitching game, Si Chengwei suddenly felt off. With a smack, his pitch went wide.
"Hahaha, son! You lost, go on a blind date tomorrow!"
Si Chengwei silently cursed: Unlucky.
Still unaware that he had inadvertently pitted his oldest brother, Si Chengyou walked with Shen Yue on the stone path.
Shen Yue knew Si Chengyou was afraid of bugs, so when she was with him, they always took this path that was sprayed with insect repellent.
As they walked, the two suddenly heard Shen Shuangyi's voice drifting over, a little beguiling, and also somewhat meaningful, "The way she looked at him can't exactly be called innocent..."
Si Chengyou and Shen Yue instantly halted their steps, but they didn't look at each other. Instead, as if coordinated, they looked in the direction the voice came from.
Their eyes were full of: sounds good, want to hear more, will eavesdrop like crazy.
However, due to his habitual pretentiousness, Si Chengyou somehow managed to interpret the eavesdropping as some sort of obscure righteousness.
