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

Chapter 77

Ye Yin pondered for a long time, facing the dark screen of his phone, unable to determine the source of his inner turmoil.

What was even more terrifying was the image of Shen Yue crying just now, firmly etched in his mind, replaying over and over again.

Ye Yin felt lost. He didn't know what this was all about, and he was afraid that he had done something that Shen Yue, as her mother had said, would dislike.

What happened to Shen Yue after she ended the video call? Was she still crying? Did he need to call and comfort her?

Although it was Shen Yue herself who asked to cry, he couldn't shake off the feeling in his heart.

It was at this moment that Ye Yin realized he didn't have Shen Yue's phone number, so he could only call Qing Xiaoyu.

"Do you have Shen Yue's phone number? Send it to me."

"What are you up to? You made her cry, and now you have the nerve to call Shen Yue? I'm hanging up!" Qing Xiaoyu knew it wasn't Ye Yin's fault, but she was just using it as an excuse to seek revenge. Ye Yin always outperformed her in everything, without mercy. Now he's begging her for help? It's too late!

Want Shen Yue's phone number? Haha, no way!

"Beep, beep, beep..."

As Ye Yin listened to the voice coming from the other end, he suddenly felt wronged. Clearly, it was Shen Yue herself who wanted to compete with him, and her intention was to cry. But why did he feel like he had done something wrong when Shen Yue achieved her goal?

Unable to understand, Ye Yin went downstairs to the living room.

His father was embracing his mother, watching TV, just like before. They were whispering something to each other.

Ye Yin's footsteps on the stairs were deliberately heavier, indicating his presence, but his reminder seemed to have no effect. These two people remained as they were, only casting their gazes at him simultaneously when he came down.

"What's wrong, Xiaoyin?"

"Why do you look so down? Can't solve a problem? Let me tell you, if there's something you can't solve, your father and I can't solve it either... Ah!"

Before Ye Father could finish speaking, his words were cut off by his wife in his embrace.

Ye Yin no longer felt the need to ask the question he had in mind, as his father interrupted. He was about to leave when he heard his mother's gentle voice from behind, soothing his inner turmoil.

"Xiaoyin, what's the matter? If you need Mom to give you some advice, come over and talk, don't mind your father."

Ye Father, upon hearing this, became displeased and grumbled, "He should mind!"

Ye Yin looked at this scene speechlessly, and couldn't help but ask his mother, "Mom, how did you end up falling for Dad in the first place?"

"Ah..." Ye Mother covered her lips and smiled, "Your dad may be a bit foolish, but he loves me enough, and he's very lovable."

Ye Yin looked at his mother's sweet expression, wanting to speak but hesitating.

He didn't want to conceal his troubles; he just didn't know where to start.

But even if Ye Yin didn't say anything, a mother knows her child best. Seeing Ye Yin's expression, Ye Mother had already guessed most of it.

"Is it related to the beautiful girl you talked about the other day?"

Upon hearing Ye Mother's words, Ye Yin's face involuntarily turned red.

Shen Yue was really beautiful, even when she was crying, she was still beautiful, completely different from other girls.

Qing Xiaoyu had cried in front of him before, with snot and tears streaming down her face, crying miserably. She even snatched the handkerchief he had on him to wipe her nose.

That handkerchief was something Ye Yin liked very much. Even though Qing Xiaoyu had washed it and returned it to him later, he would still be reminded of the snot whenever he looked at it.

Shen Yue... was different.

For the first time, he realized that the description of a charming and captivating woman was indeed a real thing.

Ye Father saw Ye Yin's almost self-destructive expression and couldn't help but mock, "Haha, you also have days like this. I thought you would spend your whole life solving math problems... Hahaha..."

Before Ye Father could finish speaking, he received another blow.

"Xiao Yin, tell Mom what happened just now."

Ye Yin glanced at his father, who was laughing in a way that begged for a beating, and walked over to nestle in his mother's arms. He successfully saw his father freeze in his tracks and felt satisfied.

His foolish father.

So, Baby Ye nestled in his mother's embrace and told her about making Shen Yue cry earlier.

He thought his mother would reprimand him, saying it was wrong to make Shen Yue cry, just like what happened with Qing Xiaoyu. But instead, a pair of warm hands gently caressed his head and said, "Giving your all in a competition is a sign of respect for your opponent. If you let up, aren't you implying that you think the other person is weaker and not worthy of your best effort? Besides, the girl's initial wish was to cry. From that perspective, you actually helped her. Why should you feel upset?"

Upon hearing this, some of the frustration in Ye Yin's heart dissipated. "Did I help her then?"

"Yes, and you showed her respect."

"Then why do I feel so distressed when I see her cry?"

Ye Yin asked sincerely, as this was a question he couldn't temporarily solve with logic.

His mother was about to respond when a certain suppressed man beside them chimed in again, "Haha, son, you're done for! You've fallen in love!!"

Ye Mother:...

Ye Yin:...

That night, a certain man battled with the sofa throughout the night, while Ye Yin spent the whole night understanding one thing.

He actually liked Shen Yue!

Although it was likely just a shallow infatuation for now, one thing was certain—Shen Yue was completely different from other girls in his heart.

Since she was different, he had to strive for her!!

At this time, Shen Yue had no idea what she would face at school the next day.

After shedding tears with an onion for a while and failing to control the flow of snot, Shen Yue simply gave up and started searching for how to cook onions to make them taste good.

Onion and egg pancake? Let's try that!

She took the onion to the kitchen and looked at the empty room. Silently, she put the onion down and decided to eat it the next day.

On Monday morning, Shen Yichen was still away on a business trip, but Shen Jize was already sitting at the breakfast table. He hadn't started eating yet, seemingly waiting for something. When he saw Shen Yue coming downstairs, his eyes brightened.

Still half-asleep, Shen Yue sat down and instinctively began eating without fully realizing that the person sitting in front of her wasn't her older brother but her fourth brother.

Fourth brother... fourth brother... Shen Yue's brain successfully booted up, and she remembered the question she had been pondering yesterday.

Why is it that when Fourth Brother sheds tears, it's just tears, but when she sheds tears, it's a sobbing with flowing snot?

"Fourth Brother, how come you don't have a runny nose when you cry?"

Shen Jize didn't expect that his first conversation of the day with his younger sister would revolve around crying. Feeling a bit awkward, he played with the spoon in his hand and softly replied, "I can control it."

Shen Yue, in her curious demeanor, turned into a little inquirer, "How do you control it?"

Shen Jize switched the spoon to his other hand, his gaze fixed on the breakfast in front of him. "By pressing the inner corner of the eyes with your hand, you can reduce the tears that flow into the nasal cavity, so you won't shed as much..."

Shen Yue nodded, planning to give it a try later tonight.

"Thank you, Fourth Brother."

"Mm... No need to thank me."
