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

Chapter 298

Getting an ear piercing done was quick, but Tang Yi spent some time selecting earrings.

The first set of simple, masculine earrings brought over didn't quite satisfy Tang Yi, so the salesperson kept bringing over other styles for Tang Yi to look through, set by set.

Shen Yue was sitting on the sofa across, not watching Tang Yi fuss at his side, but just from the sounds coming from over there, he knew the locations Tang Yi chose for his ear piercings must be the same as back at Flightless Bird.

Troublesome.

And just as Shen Yue guessed, when Tang Yi came over wearing his new earrings to show Shen Yue, the three earrings were in the exact same spots as when Tang Yi was at Flightless Bird.

"Do they look good?" Oblivious to the strange looks from the staff around them, Tang Yi leaned in close to Shen Yue, smiling innocently like a young boy. Right now, his eyes were only on Shen Yue, and his deepest desire was only to get Shen Yue's approval.

Shen Yue looked at them for a bit, then nodded in affirmation, "They look good. This simple style suits you better than flashy gems."

Tang Yi understood Shen Yue's double meaning, but he pretended not to and took it as praise: "I think they look good too."

Shen Yue motioned for Tang Yi to sit next to him and explained, "I'm waiting here for Si Chengyou. What about you?"

With words already spoken to this point, Tang Yi naturally wouldn't leave. He sat down on the sofa not far from Shen Yue's: "Then I'll wait with you."

"Mm."

The salesperson who had been tidying up the earrings overheard this and perked up their gossip radar even more. The main character was coming? What exactly was the relationship between Sir Si and this gentleman...?

The more the salesperson thought about it, the more alarmed they became. They hurriedly finished tidying up the earrings, preparing to go out and find some coworkers to share the gossip, all while pondering if there were any suitable, discreet spots in the shop for eavesdropping.

Shen Yue sat on the sofa playing a mobile game while Tang Yi chatted with him from time to time.

"Shen Yue, my ear kind of hurts."

"The disinfectant alcohol is over there, go grab some and spray it liberally. Fight poison with poison."

"What game are you playing?"

"A game to relax the mind."

"Looks fun?"

"It's alright, want to play together?"

In order to have a common topic with Shen Yue, Tang Yi naively nodded his head, and so they started playing an online Q&A escape game together: the Shen Family Plus version.

Tang Yi had just downloaded and installed it according to the link Shen Yue gave him. After scanning to log in, a question taking up the whole phone screen appeared.

Question: What does it mean when Shen Wu picks up a fruit knife?

A: He wants to peel fruit

B: He wants to peel someone

C: Just picking it up to play with when his hands itch

D: He wants to show off his Little Wu Flying Knife skills to his sister

At the top of the question, it showed there were three participants total: Tang Yi, Shen Yue, and Shen Yichen.

Shen Yue chose D, Shen Yichen chose C, and Tang Yi chose B.

In the end, only Shen Yue got it right. The question disappeared, and the little avatar with Shen Yue's picture got a present, while the avatars representing the other two got a severe scolding from a little avatar named Shen Wu.

This was a special game for the Shen family, for the several psychos to get to know each other better.

So far, Shen Yue had the best record, maintaining over 99% accuracy. The only few times he got it wrong were because the question-setter themselves had set the wrong answer by mistake.

Tang Yi had seen Shen Wu when he was a ghost, so he made his judgment based on the impressions from back then, but didn't expect to get it wrong.

Now understanding how this game worked, Tang Yi felt some interest rise up, but his interest had only one source.

"I want to do questions related to you." Tang Yi said looking at Shen Yue.

Shen Yue didn't refuse. He fiddled around in the answer interface on his phone for a bit, and soon a question bank was sent to Tang Yi's phone.

"Here, don't make a fuss if you can't answer them."

Tang Yi opened the question bank Shen Yue shared and the name at the top of the answer ranking leapt into his eyes.

Si Chengyou, 100% accuracy.

While the second place, Shen Yichen, only had 83% accuracy.

One could say Si Chengyou was leagues ahead in a different dimension.

Seeing such a formidable rival, participant Tang Yi, brimming with confidence, started answering questions.

Question 1.

What song does Shen Yue like to sing when showering?

A: Wu!Meng!Mountain!Linked!To!Outer!Mountain!

B: Katyusha

C: Doesn't sing, listens to others singing.

D: Argue with Si Chengyou first then decide

Tang Yi's gaze fell upon the three words "Si Chengyou" and he unhesitatingly chose C, but the right answer was D.

Tang Yi: ...

Although he didn't want to know anything about Si Chengyou at all, Tang Yi still couldn't help asking: "Why argue with Si Chengyou first before deciding?"

Shen Yue didn't answer. He took out his phone, opened a certain green chat app, and scrolled for a bit before letting Tang Yi see for himself.

And so, Tang Yi experienced for the first time in his life what it felt like to be forcibly fed dog food.

Yue: [Old Si, let's have an argument]

Si: [What's going on? What do you want to argue about?]

Yue: [I don't know what to argue about, you think of something. Think about what I haven't done well enough recently and argue with me about it.]

Si: [The things you haven't done well are too numerous.]

Yue: [There's really so much? Have you been dissatisfied with me for a long time?]

Si: [I wish I could tuck you into a pocket on me and carry you around every day, how could I not see you as one of my own? I tell you these things every time, but you always dance around the topic. Next time you're in pain give me a call to come massage your tummy, think for yourself what you should say then.]

Yue: [You're wrongly accusing me, I didn't eat it, it wasn't me who ate it.]

Si: [Do you know what strawberry cheesecake ice cream is also called in the Shen family?]

Si: [The Shen Yue Trap]

Si: [In the Shen family only you eat the strawberry cheesecake ice cream.]

Yue: [That's slander. You eat the strawberry ice cream too, we're engaged so why are you excluding yourself? Do you really not see me as one of your own?]

Si: [I wish I could tuck you into a pocket on me every day, how could I not see you as my own? Every time I tell you about these things, you always skirt around the topic. Next time you're in pain give me a call to come massage your tummy, think for yourself what you should say.]

Yue: [Wu!Meng!Mountain!Linked!To!Outer!Mountain!]

Si: [?]

Yue: [Listening to this song in the shower today]

Si: [...Alright, are you home now? My new chef cooks really authentic Chinese food, want me to come get you to eat it together? I'll ask your brothers if they want to come too.]

Yue: [Tomorrow]

Si: [Moonlight!Spilling!On!Loud!Water!Beach!]

Yue: [Then come get me.]

Si: [Image.jpg, on my way]

After reading through the entire chat log, Tang Yi had a soul-questioning moment: "So this is the 'love' you mentioned earlier?"

Shen Yue soul-questioned back: "Is this not it?"

"Love doesn't have to be live together, die together to count as love." Shen Yue took his phone back from Tang Yi and shook it. "This is also love."
