Chapter 356: Prop Dolls in the Strategy Guide (21)
When the prop doll was seen by Jiang Hechuan, Shen Xinghe had to make up a story about twin sisters. He finally managed to fool the man, but he no longer had the heart to continue increasing his love points. He just made up an excuse and left in a hurry.
We have to hurry and get the prop doll back.
However, after wandering outside the villa for at least half an hour, Shen Xinghe still couldn't find a chance to go in.
To celebrate her discharge from the hospital, the Fu family held a small party in the villa, but Shen Xinghe was not sure he could sneak in under the eyes of so many people.
Squatting in the corner outside the villa, he heard bursts of laughter behind him. The sweet and delicate voice was particularly clear. Shen Xinghe looked up at the sky in silence.
Sometimes it’s really hard to tell who is the prop and who is the master.
As the party was coming to an end, Su Yu finally noticed Shen Xinghe and found an excuse to run outside to find her.
"What are you doing squatting here?"
Su Yu squatted in front of Shen Xinghe, imitating her and asked curiously.
“Bang!”
Shen Xinghe slapped another mosquito to death, his expression numb: "Give charity to mosquitoes."
These words were filled with resentment.
Su Yu instinctively took two steps back and almost sat down on the ground: "You look like you're going to kill someone."
Shen Xinghe slapped another mosquito to death, and with dozens of large lumps on his body, he said resentfully: "Yeah, you've been feeding mosquitoes here for half an hour and you want to kill people."
Su Yu thought about it carefully, nodded in agreement, and complained: "You are right. Yesterday, Fu Yanwen pushed me downstairs and I was bitten by a mosquito. He was also very cruel and didn't let me scratch it with my hands. I could only apply ice cubes, but he was so slow. It was so itchy and it didn't help at all."
Shen Xinghe, who didn't even have ice to apply, said: "..."
Unable to bear it any longer, Shen Xinghe warned: "If you say another two words, I will let the system return you and you will continue to be covered in dust in the system mall."
"……oh."
Su Yu shut her mouth in grievance.
The lights were on brightly over there in the villa, but this corner was hidden by the bushes and it was pitch dark and nothing could be seen clearly.
Taking advantage of the cover of the bushes, Shen Xinghe asked Su Yu to take off her coat and give it to her. She happened to have a lot of mosquito bites on her body, so she could perfectly replace the prop doll.
After changing her clothes, Shen Xinghe put the prop doll back into the prop bar, tidied her hair a little, and then walked out of the bushes.
After walking a few steps, his eyes met Fu Yanwen, who was standing not far away and watching this side quietly.
In an instant, my mind buzzed and went blank.
Shen Xinghe's heart was in his throat.
No way, I’m so unlucky today. First, I was caught by Jiang Hechuan, and then I was caught on the spot by Fu Yanwen.
Shen Xinghe's heart was pounding. He walked over and was about to speak when he suddenly paused. He imitated the tone of the prop doll and softened his voice: "Fu Yanwen, why are you here?"
Shen Xinghe was not used to such a sweet tone, but it didn't matter. As a qualified strategist, quickly switching between multiple personalities was a basic professional quality.
In the darkness, Fu Yanwen's facial features became more profound.
"I was worried when I saw you suddenly run out."
His expression was extremely calm: "What were you doing squatting over there just now?"
Shen Xinghe's breathing quickened a little, and he pretended to be innocent: "I just saw a firefly, it was so beautiful, but it disappeared after I chased it over here."
Shen Xinghe was not sure whether Fu Yanwen had seen it or not, and said in a trembling voice: "There are so many mosquitoes here, let's go back quickly."
Fu Yanwen didn't comment, walked towards her, brushed past her, and walked towards the bushes.
Shen Xinghe's breathing tightened, and he was sure that he was suspicious.
Standing at the place where Su Yu had just squatted, Fu Yanwen lowered his eyes. There was nothing there except a few messy footprints. Even these footprints were the same size, and were blurred and the patterns could not be seen clearly.
"What are you looking at?" Shen Xinghe forced himself to pout and pulled his sleeve, "Don't you believe what I say?"
Fu Yanwen raised his thin lips slightly: "Don't think too much, I just came here to help you find fireflies."
Shen Xinghe's voice was stiff: "...Ah, really?"
Shen Xinghe didn't want to think too much about it.
The more she talks, the more mistakes she makes. Now she just wants to deal with Fu Yanwen as quickly as possible.
"Don't look for it anymore. Let's go back. I've got a few bites on my body. I need to apply ice."
Shen Xinghe used the word "again" and also specifically emphasized the use of ice cubes in order to dispel Fu Yanwen's suspicion and show that she was the one who had always been with him.
Fu Yanwen finally stopped obsessing over finding fireflies: "Where did you get bitten? Let me see."
"Here." Shen Xinghe showed the mosquito bite on the back of his hand, and the one on his neck, "And here, it's so itchy."
Fu Yanwen lowered his eyes and looked at it for two seconds, then said, "I'll ask the housekeeper to send the ointment to your room later."
"Okay." Shen Xinghe nodded and held his hand. "Let's go back quickly. There are so many mosquitoes here."
Fu Yanwen withdrew his hand imperceptibly, straightened her collar, and paused for a moment when he saw the pattern of the lining under her coat.
"Is this what you were wearing underneath?"
Shen Xinghe's heart skipped a beat: "Yes, yes."
In fact, Fu Yanwen didn't pay attention to what she was wearing under her coat, but he was almost certain that the person in front of him was not the previous Shen Xinghe.
In the props column, Su Yu was also nervous along with Shen Xinghe.
Fu Yanwen was indeed too perceptive. From just now till now, every word he said was a test.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Su Yu said slowly: [Shen Xinghe's answer is wrong. ]
The system rolled around in boredom: [What's the wrong answer? ]
Su Yu said: [If it were me, I wouldn’t have agreed so easily when Fu Yanwen asked the housekeeper to deliver the ointment to my room.]
The system is curious: [What will the host do? ]
Su Yu said as a matter of course: [I am so lazy, I will definitely act like a spoiled child and ask him to help me apply the medicine. ]
System: […That makes sense.]
Su Yu was not sure how much Fu Yanwen had noticed, but she was certain that he must not have seen the scene where she and the heroine appeared at the same time, otherwise he would not have tested her in such a roundabout way.
At night, other members of the Fu family left the villa one after another.
Shen Xinghe finally gained his freedom and lay down in the soft quilt. He had only one feeling: tiredness, even more tiring than when he was a student after doing ten sets of papers in a row.
Just in case, she didn't put out the prop doll.
There was a knock on the door. Shen Xinghe wanted to cover his head with the quilt, but he had to open the door.
She walked to the door like a wandering soul, patted her face, and forced herself to smile sweetly.
The door opened and Fu Yanwen stood outside.
"What's up?"
Shen Xinghe really couldn't control the voice of the prop doll. Sometimes it seemed too hard and artificial, and sometimes it was not strong enough and seemed cold.
Shen Xinghe yawned as a remedy: "I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep."
Su Yu's narcissistic comment: [No one has a soft voice like me. 】
System Cat was lying in the space playing with a ball. When he heard these words, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
Fu Yanwen lowered his eyes to glance at her neck and wrist, and asked calmly, "Is it not itchy anymore?"
Shen Xinghe froze in the middle of a yawn: "It's still a little itchy."
Fu Yanwen looked at him intently, and silent silence flowed in the air. The vague feeling of oppression made Shen Xinghe's heart tremble. It was only a few seconds, but it felt like a lifetime.
In an instant, all the tense atmosphere disappeared.
Fu Yanwen put on an impeccable smile and handed over the ointment in his hand: "Go to bed early."
Shen Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief and took the ointment: "Okay."
Su Yu continued to comment: [If it were me, I would definitely use the excuse that I was sleepy, ask Fu Yanwen to help me apply medicine, and then lie on the bed and fall asleep happily. ]
It was a temptation before, and now it is a further temptation.
Su Yu was very curious. When did Fu Yanwen discover that something was wrong?
What would be his reaction if he knew about the existence of the prop doll?
