Chapter 232

Shen Hui had never attended school.

She had also never interacted with peers her own age.

She had heard of school and learned what kind of place it was from some experimental subjects. As a young girl, she had naively thought that one day she would also be able to attend school and make "friends."

But she was wrong.

The day after she asked if she could attend school, the experiment subject who had told her about the existence of schools disappeared.

The two people who claimed to be her parents said that going to school was where the weak went to passively receive knowledge. Shen Hui was different from ordinary people as a genius - she needed to forge ahead of everyone else to uncover undiscovered paths.

So for her, going to school was useless socializing that would only become a stumbling block in her path forward.

Shen Hui kept a personal life planner that listed the level of brain development she needed to achieve each year from birth, the completion times for different research milestones, and the final target completion time.

"Huihui, do you know why we chose this name for you?"

"Hui stands for wisdom. You are the smartest child, you must be able to complete this research."

Wisdom? Shen Hui did not like the meaning of this word, but she did not know of anything better so she could only keep her dissatisfaction suppressed in her heart.

It wasn't until she went back with Shen Shuangchen and saw an explanation of the word Hui in a book: "Kindness of heart, generosity and tolerance."

The word Hui was completely at odds with her, or even the complete opposite, but she liked it.

So Shen Hui became Shen Hui.

...

"Huihui, sleep with me tonight?" Shen Yue called out to Shen Hui just as she was preparing to go back to her own room to sleep.

The last time Shen Yue had suddenly called her Duoduo, Shen Hui had not been able to react. Hearing it again now, she immediately felt awkward and turned back to glare at Shen Yue with a bad expression, "Don't call me that."

"Oh, then little sister, sleep with me tonight?"

Shen Hui felt even more unhappy, why did she have to act like this person's little sister.

Then she remembered that when she had just arrived at the Shen house, she had agreed to be Shen Yue's little sister in order to spite him and disgust Shen's other brothers. In short she now extremely regretted it.

Shen Hui pursed her lips and looked away, "No." She wouldn't let Shen Yue control her.

"We're going to school tomorrow, so get a good rest tonight at least. I don't mind if you hit me in your sleep," Shen Yue said.

Language is an art.

At least after Shen Yue said this, if Shen Hui rejected her invitation again, it would look like she was afraid. So Shen Hui was once again tricked by Shen Yue.

It wasn't until she lay down on Shen Yue's bed that Shen Hui reacted - Who am I? Shen Hui. Where am I? Shen Yue's bed. Why? Don't know.

Shen Hui had just started to get up when Shen Yue next to her spoke up in a timely manner, "Let me sing you a lullaby, that way you won't have any weird dreams."

Shen Hui paused for a moment and analyzed the situation based on her current knowledge, coming to a definite conclusion, "Lullabies do not have that effect."

"Then under what circumstances would you not dream?"

Shen Hui answered very quickly, "When extremely tired, I won't dream."

Shen Yue reached out and started patting Shen Hui's stomach lightly over the covers, "You're tired now already, it's just that you're used to forcing your body so it makes you feel like you're not."

Shen Hui had originally wanted to refute her but hearing Shen Yue's words, she strangely did feel tired. She thought she would just close her eyes for a bit, just for a little bit...

As a result by the time she woke up, it was already light out.

The sound that woke her was Auntie calling them from outside the door to get up and go eat breakfast since Shen Yichen was still waiting for his two sisters to go to school together.

Shen Hui remembered what she had promised yesterday. She had felt a bit conflicted at first but figured there was no harm in going to school to take a look before her lab was built. So she started getting dressed.

When she was halfway done changing, she suddenly remembered something and looked to her right where there was a Shen Yue sleeping like a pig.

Shen Yue had woken up later than her today, so that meant that she probably hadn't made any big movements last night...right.

Shen Hui thought this to herself.

She looked at Shen Yue hesitatingly before choosing to keep dressing. After getting fully dressed, she hesitated again but still reached out to push Shen Yue, "Hey, get up."

Shen Yue very cooperatively flipped over after being pushed, leaving only the back of her head for Shen Hui's eyes.

Shen Hui: ......

Shen Hui pushed her again, so Shen Yue directly hid even that bit of the back of her head. Her entire body shrank under the covers so that all Shen Hui could see was a lump protruding from underneath. It was round - Shen Yue had probably curled her whole body up into a ball.

Looking at that little lump, Shen Hui's head suddenly sent instructions to her hand: poke her.

Before Shen Hui even had time to think about why, her finger was already poking the round lump.

When poked, the round lump shifted and scooted over to the side a bit.

Shen Hui found it entertaining and simply continued poking.

Shen Yue continued shifting. She poked, it moved. She chased, it fled!

Finally with a loud thump, Shen Yue rolled off the bed and briefly woke up.

She blearily opened her eyes, crawled up from the floor, and saw Shen Hui fully dressed but with a bewildered expression. "You actually...got up already...... How did I end up on the floor?"

Shen Hui felt a little guilty but she still put on an appearance of composure. "Someone just came to knock saying your oldest brother is waiting downstairs."

Shen Yue nodded while saying Oh, then crawled back into bed with a blissful face.

Shen Hui: ?

She could only call Shen Yue one more time, "Get up."

Shen Yue whined as she poked her head out before reaching her hand out towards Shen Hui.

Shen Hui: ?

......What does this mean? Why was she stretching her hand out towards her?

Shen Hui silently guessed for a while. She reached out her own hand and pulled Shen Yue up out of bed, but Shen Yue still had her eyes closed. She only cooperatively went along as Shen Hui pulled on her shirt sleeve.

Shen Hui suddenly understood.

But why should she have to.

Just as she was about to toss Shen Yue back, she remembered that she was the one who had poked Shen Yue onto the floor. She tsked before resignedly starting to change Shen Yue's clothes for her.

As she changed her, she told herself in her heart that this would be the only time, there definitely wouldn't be a next time.

After changing her clothes, Shen Hui saw that Shen Yue still wasn't fully awake and directly took her to the bathroom to forcibly wake a certain Yue with cold water.

Shen Yue shuddered as she became much more alert. She looked at Shen Hui reproachfully with eyes full of accusation.

Shen Hui was unmoved. "Awake now?"

Shen Yue sniffled as she used a tissue to wipe the water that had gotten up her nose. She answered somewhat pitifully, "Awake."

For an instant, Shen Hui had the thought that she should probably apologize. But it was only for an instant.

Why should she apologize to Shen Yue?

"Let's go," Shen Hui said as she herself walked out of the bathroom ahead of Shen Yue.

Shen Yue responded with an Oh before clip clopping after Shen Hui.

At this moment, Shen Hui's mood was complicated.

She ate breakfast in a preoccupied manner.

Somewhat surprisingly, Shen Yichen's father and Shen Yichen's mother were at the table today since they rarely ate at home. It was only because Shen Yichen had scared them recently that they had obediently stayed home more the past few days.

When Shen's Father saw Shen Yue come down with Shen Hui and Shen Hui had a distracted expression, he immediately seized the opportunity and said to Shen Yue, "Shen Yue, were you bullying Huihui?"
