Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy

Chapter 41

[“Ahhhh, my good baby has finally started talking!! Don't say anymore, mom is really moved!”]

[“Yueyue must have been too scared to talk before, but now that Brother Shen is willing to protect her, things are different!”]

[“Why is Li Xing so annoying? I didn't feel that way before, what's going on with him now?”]

[“Am I the only one who wants to know what Brother Shen meant when he talked about the dismissed male nanny and housekeeper?”]

[“Brother Shen from the Shen family, come out and explain!! I won't be able to sleep tonight without an answer!”]

[“All-knowing netizens, quickly uncover the truth!”]

Not only were netizens very curious about what Shen Shuangyi had said, but Jiang Shiwen and Zou Xuerong were also very curious.

Up until now, they still didn't believe Yueyue would be bullied, let alone bullied to the point of being unable to speak.

As Jiang Shiwen served food to Yueyue, he struggled internally, finally mustering up the courage to ask when he saw Shen Shuangyi look over, "Brother Shen, what did you mean earlier?"

After swallowing the food in his mouth, Shen Shuangyi finally spoke, "What do you mean what did I mean?"

"What you said about hiring and then firing some male nanny and housekeeper who acted inappropriately. What was that about?"

Male nanny, the term felt a bit embarrassing somehow.

Shen Shuangyi gave an "oh" and deliberately asked, "You want to know?"

Jiang Shiwen first glanced at Yueyue and saw that she didn't care at all, in fact she was also straining to listen. Only then did he nod affirmatively, "Yeah, I want to know."

"Then hand over all the money you earn tomorrow too." Shen Shuangyi stated his condition. At this moment, he had no mentor-disciple affection for Jiang Shiwen whatsoever, he was just a cold, ruthless money-making machine.

Even if it was just a few tens of dollars, it was still money.

Jiang Shiwen's eyes widened in shock. "Brother Shen, how can you say something so cold when you have a 36.5 degree fever?"

"I can say even colder things. Don't eat dinner today."

"No, brother! I'll give it to you! I'll give you all the money I earn tomorrow too!" Jiang Shiwen desperately protected his bowl, regretting opening his big mouth earlier.

"Deal."

At this time, Zou Xuerong, who had remained silent, hesitantly voiced her thoughts, "Is this okay with Yueyue?"

Facing the ruthless Shen Shuangyi, upon hearing Zou Xuerong's question, his expression softened.

"It's not that big of a deal. Everyone experiences something like this at some point in their life that helps them instantly mature. For Yueyue, this may not necessarily be a bad thing."

Seeing the burning curiosity on Jiang Shiwen's face, Shen Shuangyi started explaining Yueyue's history with Shang Junyu.

He told them about how it started at the amusement park, the Shen family's later efforts to find Yueyue a companion, and what they recently discovered that boy doing to Yueyue at school.

Shen Shuangyi was quite merciful in that he didn't directly mention Shang Junyu's name.

"So you mean that rotten brat not only took money from your family, but spreads rumors and vilifies my sister Yueyue at school every day?!"

Shen Shuangyi took a sip of soup and calmly replied, "You could put it that way."

"Yueyue must have thought he was her friend so she treated him so well. Why would he do this?!" Zou Xuerong felt awful for her. No wonder Yueyue had said she was scared - she must be scared of being tricked again!

"Sister Yueyue, what's going on with you? How could someone I can call sister fall for that brat?!"

Yueyue didn't respond and quietly drank her soup.

Jiang Shiwen could only look to Shen Shuangyi again.

After thinking for a bit, Shen Shuangyi said, "That brat is quite good-looking. Although still young, he already has universal appeal."

Jiang Shiwen stroked his messy braid disdainfully, "Who doesn't?"

As Shen Shuangyi talked to them, he also paid attention to Yueyue's attitude. Seeing that she truly didn't care about Shang Junyu at all, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It looked like there was still hope.

Thus, he suddenly grabbed Jiang Shiwen and shoved him in front of Yueyue, instructing her, "Yueyue, look closely. You can't trust handsome men like this, understand?"

Yueyue looked at Jiang Shiwen, then looked at her second brother's serious expression, and nodded firmly.

Seeing the muddled look in Yueyue's eyes that seemed resolute but was actually chaotic, Shen Shuangyi added another sentence, "Except for handsome guys like me."

Yueyue didn't respond, just felt very surprised.

She remembered her second brother never cared about her in the past, so she felt a little moved that he now knew so much about her affairs. At the same time, she couldn't help feeling something was off - things rarely happened for no reason, she had to be careful.

After being careful for two seconds, Yueyue felt...forget it, she'd be careful tomorrow, for now she was too tired.

[“Hahahaha, Brother Shen really has a way with words!”]

[“I'm suddenly realizing the Shen family doesn't seem as simple as the average noble clan, they're different from typical wealthy families.”]

[“I just went to check out the Shen family history. I can only say, there are reasons why a family clan can last 3+ generations without declining.”]

[“Damn, the Shens are ruthless, unable to perform gets you kicked out of the family gate, huh? Impressive.”]

[“What will my poor Yueyue do? She was originally a princess, who knows if she'll end up becoming a maid in the future.”]

[“The above, Sister Yueyue won't become a maid, at worst she can go to Syria to dismantle bombs.”]

That day, the Shen family rules strangely topped the hot search trends, and more laughable topics followed after.

[#Sister Yueyue just wants to lie down, what should Sister Yueyue do?##Are there any wealthy families lacking a daughter who can dismantle bombs?##I'm Shen Yueyue, donate $50 to help me leave the Shen family#]

Seeing these hot search trends, Shen Yichen felt extremely complicated.

He had invested in the Tip of Rome reality show in the first place because he saw the perseverance and grit required by the designed challenges was what Yueyue needed to change herself there. He even specially urged Shen Shuangyi to keep an eye on Yueyue.

Yet after just a few days, not only did Yueyue not change her lazy ways and strive for self-improvement, she made so many netizens aware of her laziness and lack of ambition.

If this was brought up later as data during the family review, it would greatly impact Yueyue's score. If her score didn't meet the requirements, she really could end up on the streets.

Shen Yichen suddenly felt a headache coming on. He picked up his phone and called the director, "Cancel the special benefit, have Yueyue go out and earn money on her own tomorrow. Don't allow her to eat anything if she doesn't earn money, even if others try to give her food."

The director had been tearing his hair out over his inability to restrict Yueyue. Hearing Shen Yichen say this, he immediately perked up and readily agreed, "Sure thing, Boss Shen!"

Therefore, the next day after everyone woke up amidst the ear-piercing chant of "You get up early, I get up early, I'm just awesome" and "You get up early, I get up early, we'll be together eventually", they heard the bad news.

"Good morning everyone!"
