After repeated analysis, Si Chengyou finally determined one thing: Shen Hui is his archenemy.
It has been a year since Shen Yue agreed to let him pursue her. During this year, Si Chengyou was thrown out of the Shen house countless times. Finally, with his unremitting efforts and collusion with Shen Shuangchen, Shen Yue's brothers begrudgingly accepted him.
However, there was still one problem that could not be solved - Shen Hui.
Shen Hui resolutely resisted Si Chengyou's invasion for a simple reason: she claimed that she was still a baby who needed Shen Yue to sleep with her. She could not lose Shen Yue, just as the West could not lose Jerusalem.
The Shen family unanimously agreed that this reason was very reasonable. Shen Hui was currently a national talent. If she couldn't sleep well at night, how could she produce research results? She definitely could not.
For this reason, Si Chengyou was suppressed by Shen Hui for a full year.
No matter what he and Shen Yue were doing, as long as Shen Hui appeared, he had to give way to her.
At Shen Hui's command, he even had to throw himself out of the Shen house.
Si Chengyou had also thought about solutions.
He tried to have a life-size Shen Yue hug pillow made, one with temperature control, but it didn't work.
Later, Si Chengyou thought of introducing potential partners to Shen Hui. He had introduced all kinds of eligible bachelors, but Shen Hui didn't react at all. This led Si Chengyou to wonder if Shen Hui was not interested in men.
He then introduced some girls to Shen Hui, which only made her angrier. She prohibited him from seeing Shen Yue for a whole month.
Si Chengyou could only cry to Shen Yue on WeChat every day to barely get by.
Shen Yue said she was also trying to communicate with Shen Hui. She even wanted Shen Hui to raise a small pet, like the orange pig at home. But Shen Hui did not seem interested in the orange pig.
At that time, Si Chengyou did not think much of it. But after failing continuously for a year, he finally remembered this pet therapy idea again.
What if, and this was just a possibility, Shen Hui did not dislike pets, she just simply disliked that orange pig.
With this in mind, when Si Chengyou met Shen Hui and Shen Yue one sunny afternoon, he secretly sent Shen Hui many pet photos using Shen Yue's phone, and then observed her reaction.
When they got to the photos of Collies, Shen Hui's scrolling speed slowed down. Si Chengyou then decided to find an opportunity to give Shen Hui a Collie puppy.
Obviously a newborn Collie puppy wouldn't work. With Shen Hui's personality, the only creature she could patiently take care of was Shen Yue.
Moreover, the goal of giving Shen Hui a pet was to shift her dependence on Shen Yue somewhere else. So he had to find her a reliable pet.
Retired military dogs came to Si Chengyou's mind first.
Retired military dogs were very smart and easy to care for.
Si Chengyou mentioned this idea to Shen Yue. Shen Yue thought it was feasible, but also not so feasible. "Military dogs don't live as long as people. Huihui will only feel worse when that time comes."
"She has to take that step eventually. Can you accompany her for a lifetime?" When saying this, Si Chengyou was screaming madly in his heart.
You should accompany me! Don't accompany Shen Hui! She's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine...
If Shen Yue could read minds, she would definitely be annoyed to death by Si Chengyou right now.
But she couldn't read minds. Considering that Shen Hui was indeed too dependent on her at the moment, Shen Yue agreed to Si Chengyou's proposal. On a sunny afternoon, she gave a retired sheepdog to Shen Hui.
Shen Hui did not refuse.
After another six months, Shen Hui was finally able to sleep by herself.
After another six months, Si Chengyou successfully infiltrated the Shen family and started calling them brother and sister.
At this point, Si Chengyou had been pursuing Shen Yue for 2 years.
However, it seemed Shen Yue didn't make things too difficult for him. On the contrary, she comforted him every time he was rejected by her family. Thinking of this, Si Chengyou felt he loved Shen Yue even more!
The Si family was overjoyed that he had gotten through to the Shen side.
Si men: Great, we can finally eat fresh meals!
Si women: Great, we can finally ask how to make the crème brûlée. It's so delicious!
To the Si family, Shen Yue was a woman who hadn't shown her face in two years, but won every game of rock paper scissors against Si Chengyou, a kind person who often asked Si Chengyou to bring back crème brûlée, an amazing woman who gave Si Chengyou many cute Ultraman plushies that now surrounded Si Chengyou's bed!
They had wanted to meet Shen Yue for a long time, but unfortunately, Si Chengyou had never gained approval from Shen Yue's family. They didn't have a proper reason to meet Shen Yue either, so they could only sneak peeks at her when the couple met.
Now, it was finally a blessing after hardship!
They wanted to invite Shen Yue to the Si home and entertain her every day!
After experiencing the Si family's enthusiasm for two straight months, Shen Yue couldn't resist and agreed to get engaged.
Three months after Shen Yue and Si Chengyou officially settled their relationship, the two families met and set a wedding date.
Shen Yue thought about it and still informed several former close classmates, such as Qing Xiaoyu, Jiang Shiwen, Zou Xuerong, and...Ye Yin.
Upon hearing the news, Qing Xiaoyu's first reaction was that the fool Ye Yin just got stolen from.
But she was also very curious what kind of person could gain approval from Shen Yue's bizarre family.
She had interacted with Shen Yue’s brothers before and knew how picky they were. Otherwise, Ye Yin wouldn't have tried so hard for so many years without even getting the qualification to pursue her.
Later, after Qing Xiaoyu searched for Si Chengyou online according to what Shen Yue said, the youngest bureau chief in history?
Then it was settled.
Poor Ye Yin.
That day, Qing Xiaoyu went to Ye Yin's school, ready to watch him cry.
Unexpectedly, Ye Yin just stared blankly at the news without shedding a tear. Unable to watch any longer, Qing Xiaoyu dragged him out drinking.
That idiot Jiang Shiwen was still overseas learning how to earn foreign money. As soon as he heard Shen Yue was engaged, he immediately returned to China vigorously and spiritedly, wanting to see what kind of man dared to marry his Yue sister.
However, when Jiang Shiwen arrived at the engagement banquet and barely called out "Yue sister", he was scared to death by a certain man's aura.
He secretly asked Shen Yue, "Yue sister, isn't your fiancé a murderer? He looked at me weird, f*ck, he really frightened me to death."
Shen Yue: ...
Jiang Shiwen was still a goofball. Verified.
Zou Xuerong was no longer the little girl who could only sob after being bullied by her sister. After playing with Shen Hui, she learned Shen Hui's life philosophy: none of your business, none of my business.
She firmly memorized this eight-word mantra and has not been manipulated ever since.
When playing the piano at home, Zou Xuezheng said she sounded terrible and their parents would be angry if they heard it. Zou Xuerong replied: If it sounds bad then don't listen, cover your ears.
When making a cake for Shen Yue at home, Zou Xuezheng said her cooking was so awful that it would only make others feel awkward if served. Zou Xuerong replied: Not everyone has as bad taste as you.
Wearing beautiful clothes to attend a banquet, Zou Xuezheng said she was dressed indecently. Zou Xuerong replied: None of your business.
Over time, Zou Xuezheng became afraid of this younger sister and started avoiding her instead.
The Zou Xuerong who came to the engagement banquet was very confident. Shen Yue could hardly imagine that when they first met, she was still a timid girl.
"Yueyue, congratulations!"
Seeing the cheerful people before her, many things flashed through Shen Yue's mind. They were then condensed into a simple "Thank you".
