Chapter 27: Suffering the consequences
Putting aside the turbulent situation on the Internet, he just gently stroked Sheng Zhao's waist with his fingertips, looking down at her, his shallow breath carrying a faint fragrance.
His eyes were always frivolous, sometimes cold and sometimes frivolous, but at this moment they held an inexplicable seriousness, yet were vague and hidden.
Li Ji's breathing trembled. He moved closer to her, then lowered his eyes and suddenly stood up, keeping a distance from her.
Sheng Zhao paused, leaned closer to him, and asked in a puzzled voice, "What's wrong? Weren't you afraid to kiss me just now?"
"……joke."
He spoke in a slightly hoarse voice, his eyes shifting away evasively, followed by silence.
Such scenes and emotions are familiar.
As a favored daughter of heaven, Sheng Zhao has had many admirers since she was young, so she is not unaware of this ambiguous atmosphere.
Does he like her?
Ah, running away again, such a coward.
She smiled slightly, turned and left without saying anything.
Li Ji looked at her departing back, his eyes paused slightly, and his expression was a little complicated.
There is no doubt that he is totally unworthy of Sheng Zhao.
A cousin with a bad reputation and a proud daughter with a high status and background.
Just like that day when that noble-dressed man looked at him arrogantly and coldly.
Said that he was not worthy of Sheng Zhao.
He said that people like him were not worthy of having contact with Sheng Zhao.
Yeah?
Li Ji also felt so.
He's bad enough anyway.
In a daze, he put too much salt on his hand. Li Ji shrank back suddenly, lowered his eyes and looked at the vegetables in the pot, "tsk", but instead of remedying the situation, he continued to stir-fry with an expressionless face.
When Li Ji finished cooking and brought the meal over, Sheng Zhao had already been waiting for a long time, looking at him eagerly.
Li Ji put it down in annoyance and sat down opposite her again. He was satisfied to see that her face was wrinkled because of the dish with too much salt. He sneered slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly in satisfaction and started to drink the porridge.
Sheng Zhao stuck out his tongue and quickly swallowed a mouthful of soup.
She ate with great interest, probably because she attached great importance to the food. Li Ji lowered his eyes slightly and looked at her, and asked casually, "Is my cooking delicious?"
"Yes, it's much better than what my brother cooks."
Sheng Zhao mumbled.
Li Ji raised the corners of his lips slightly and murmured, "Brother..."
He spoke again as if in a trance, "I've never cooked for anyone... not really."
"When I was in elementary school, I was at my mom's house... I was only this tall." He gestured slightly to indicate his height, his tone also nonchalant, "Then I would come home from school and cook for her. She wouldn't say the food was delicious, she would just scold me for being a waste of money and not having any snacks to go with the wine."
"Then I went to my dad's house, and he wasn't home most of the time, so I just made it for myself."
Li Ji murmured like this.
Sheng Zhao swallowed the food in his mouth and paused for a moment. His clear voice was so abrupt in the room that it seemed as if the air was frozen.
"Are you saying this to make me pity you?"
Does her words show a lack of emotional intelligence?
Not really, she is just direct, honest, and doesn't care whether the other person will have a lower opinion of her because of this. Or, her basic nature is one of indifference, superiority, and indifference.
Li Ji didn't have any excessive emotion in these words. Perhaps he understood her. He just raised the corners of his lips slightly, his eyes looking self-deprecating before he lowered them. "No, I just want you to realize that my family and I are terrible."
"It's not that bad." Sheng Zhao paused slightly, as if thinking, and then praised, "You had good grades in high school, didn't you? You're pretty good."
"That's nothing. It's just meaningless stuff." He rubbed the edge of the table with his fingertips and sneered, "Please realize that I'm a lowly person who didn't even finish high school."
"What major do you want to study at Tsinghua University?"
Sheng Zhao asked this question in a mumbling tone, while eating his food.
"...I don't know." Li Ji shook his head, "I just wanted to escape from there."
"The adult college entrance exam for Tsinghua University is not difficult. I can also write a letter of recommendation for you." Sheng Zhao said this, and her beautiful and clear eyes seemed to be free of any magazine.
"Letter of recommendation?" Li Ji raised his eyes slightly. "It's not worth it for me to find someone to learn how to write a letter of recommendation for me, and it's not worth the bother."
"I didn't ask anyone else to do it. I wrote it myself. I graduated from National Tsing Hua University."
Sheng Zhao clarified this, but she didn't know that Li Ji had completely stopped and was just looking at her in shock.
It took him a moment to come back to his senses, and he murmured something like a complaint or a joke, the ending tone drawn out, "What a perfect life."
Compared to Li Ji's miserable life, Sheng Zhao's life and conditions were so good that he was not even worthy of coveting them.
"My life would truly be perfect if I could see you reach the top."
She smiled with her eyes narrowed, revealing the tips of her white teeth, her lips red and her teeth white.
And my brother is also a stain.
He was a pathetic and despicable man, harboring disgusting thoughts that fermented and intensified.
It was obvious that all Sheng Zhao wanted was a perfect and ordinary family of brothers and sisters, growing up relying on each other, and giving him a generous dowry reluctantly when he got married. This was the script they should have followed.
But he just stared at her with a dark dog-like look, and when she was not at home, he took her clothes and put them on her body to inhale the smell and then masturbate.
So dirty.
He had secretly slept in her bed and smelled her clothes. This feeling of losing control only made Sheng Zhao feel disgusted.
My brother is a miserable and dirty man.
Sheng Zhao defined it this way.
As for Li Ji, she is defined as a perfect work of glass that needs to be carefully carved. Her experiences, personality and image are all gifts from God.
It turned out that God sent him to her side because he saw that there were countless disobedient people around her.
Sheng Zhao was very satisfied and even smiled happily. The surroundings seemed to be filled with sunshine, which made Li Ji dazed for a moment.
Then he lowered his eyes and emotions, hiding them deep in his heart like inky black hair.
——————
Sheng Cehan also saw the hot searches and news that have been making the rounds these days.
He deleted the page with disgust.
He had known that such a disgusting man would end up in such a situation, which would only bring shame to Sheng Zhao's reputation for no reason.
Sheng Cehan paused slightly, even expecting the situation to get worse, until Sheng Zhao gave up this inferior product and returned to him.
Being with my brother is the safest thing.
There is only love from dirty men out there.
Even Chen Shuoxing, who was perfect enough to work with him for a while, was just a disguised green tea in Sheng Cehan's eyes.
No one is worthy of Sheng Zhao, including Sheng Cehan himself.
This realization made him stroke Sheng Zhao's clothes and breathe slightly, his face flushed as he thought of Sheng Zhao.
He liked but also felt pain in Sheng Zhao's disgusted eyes, which were superior, pitying, disgusting, and nauseating...
"call……"
Sheng Cehan suppressed his gasp.
He tried to calm his breathing, and reluctantly put the clothes of Sheng Zhao he had stolen under the pillow, and continued to stare at the computer to process documents.
Even if it was something not that important and was just something Sheng Zhao threw at him to relieve his burden, he would handle it well.
Want Sheng Zhao to see him.
That was all Sheng Cehan thought about.
He checked his watch and saw that it was already the agreed time. A picture package appeared in the email on time. When he clicked on it, it was filled with densely packed photos of Sheng Zhao. These photos were obviously taken candidly, but the clear and beautiful appearance of the women in the photos was not diminished by the tricky angles.
Some of her were eating with big mouthfuls, some were lying lazily on the sofa, some were basking in the sun lazily on the balcony with squinting eyes...
So cute.
Sheng Cehan's heart was pounding. He took a deep breath and browsed through the photos greedily, looking at each one carefully.
It was particularly annoying to see Sheng Zhao and Li Ji appear at the same dinner table, Sheng Zhao eating with big mouthfuls, while Li Ji was staring at her with his head propped up and the corners of his lips slightly raised.
Dirty man.
Sheng Cehan's face turned cold and expressionless as if he was jealous.
It is obvious that he is the man who looks at Sheng Zhao with such doting.
The computer pop-up window showed the hot search term "Li Ji reverses Master Shen".
Sheng Cehan frowned in disappointment and wanted to turn it off coldly, but he stopped when he saw the word "reverse".
He clicked on it, and as soon as he entered, he saw a dense stream of criticisms against "Young Master Shen".
——'It's disgusting to spread pornographic rumors, and bully the little boy in school.'
'Who is this Master Shen? Master~~~[Yin Yang Wei Qi.jpg]'
"New China was founded a long time ago, right? Where did this young master come from? I'm dying of laughter."
"The eldest young master spread obscene rumors to bully our Li Ji. Damn it, how shameless! He must be jealous of Li Ji. After all, our Li Ji was the campus idol in high school."
"Ah, Huang Yao is so terrible. He ruined Li Ji. If Li Ji hadn't dropped out of school because of bullying, he might have graduated from National Tsing Hua University by now. Alas."
'Who the hell is this Young Master Shen! This is disgusting. A-2 Middle School is a piecemeal market. Just because of a dirty rumor, Li Ji has been bullied for a whole year! This is sick! Are there any netizens with great powers who can dig out this Young Master Shen!'
"What kind of society are you in now, still acting like a young master? Hahahaha, Brother Strong!"
"School bullying is terrible. Li Ji's life has been completely ruined by them. And Li Ji is still suffering from cyberbullying. If this incident hadn't been exposed, how much more would he have suffered."
'I love Li Ji, the beautiful, strong and miserable little brother.'
"I've turned from a hater to a fan. I owe Li Ji an apology."
"Aren't you guys under Li Ji's spell? He's even a sidekick! It's really devastating."
"The person above is the one who destroys my worldview. He's clearly trying to send money to his vampire father."
…
Sheng Cehan frowned slightly. How could the situation turn around so quickly... He was clearly still expecting this dirty man to be completely eliminated.
Netizens searched everywhere for the legendary Master Shen, but after searching for a long time, there was no trace of him.
So what happened? Of course it was Miss Shen who took action.
Sheng Zhao sneered as he looked at the news about Young Master Shen that was constantly being hidden and blocked, and murmured.
"I'm sorry, Miss Shen, but Young Master Shen will have to suffer the consequences."
She narrowed her eyes in pleasure, and the end of her voice stretched out teasingly.
