Chapter 265

When Shen Yue arrived at school, she finally regained her senses.

As she walked, she took out her phone to look. As soon as she opened the chat interface, there was the little essay Si Chengyou had sent.

It contained the things that had happened in his new timeline that he remembered, as well as some conjectures he inferred based on these things.

Finally there was a conclusion:

[I'm sorry I didn't believe you at first.]

Shen Yue read very quickly, but even so, she was still caught by Shen Hui's small glance.

Shen Hui didn't see the words on Shen Yue's screen clearly, nor did she see who sent the message to Shen Yue. She only knew that the long string of words...looked very long.

"Is that a message from Ye Yin?" Shen Hui asked suddenly.

Shen Yue was puzzled. "Why do you think it's from Ye Yin?"

"He's always looking at you in class. I've caught him several times."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue frowned fiercely, looking at Shen Hui indignantly, "Huihui, tell me... why can Ye Yin get second place when he spaces out in class? This is unfair!"

Shen Hui comforted, "It's okay, I got first place. He can't take it away from me."

After hearing this, Shen Yue finally seemed a little more comfortable. Then her tone changed as she said, "They got caught."

Shen Yue changed the subject very quickly, but Shen Hui still understood what Shen Yue was talking about the moment she heard those words. Her body suddenly stiffened and she stopped and stood there, not knowing what she was thinking.

Shen Yue quietly stood to the side until it was almost time for class. Then she pushed Shen Hui, "Huihui, time to go." Seeing that Shen Hui still didn't respond, Shen Yue reached out to pull Shen Hui. Shen Hui didn't resist and obediently walked with Shen Yue.

But during the time at school, Shen Hui didn't say another word.

It was as if she was completely immersed in another world.

Not until that evening when the two girls got into the car to go home did Shen Hui finally let out a long sigh of relief and say to Shen Yue, "I never thought there would be a day like this."

It wasn't that she didn't want to think about it, but that she didn't dare think about it.

Shen Yue knew what Shen Hui was thinking at this moment.

In her memories, she had once asked Shen Hui, "Sister, since you discovered the method of transmitting memories early on, why didn't you transmit the memories back to save yourself?"

At that time, the 22-year-old Shen Hui was already strong enough, but when Shen Yue asked this, an instant of despair still appeared on her face.

"I was taken away by those two people as soon as I was born and locked in a cage. No matter how I tried to escape back when I was little, nothing would change. I couldn't break out of the cage or save myself."

"Going back in time? Traveling through space and time? Changing the future? It's all nonsense."

"If you keep being in a cage, passing yourself on to your past self would only add another layer to the cage—it would be meaningless."

Shen Hui had always been trapped in the cage. Meeting Shen Shuangchen was the first time she escaped. She cherished this chance very much. She knew those two people would not let her go, so she was always prepared to die or start over.

That first encounter with Su Yun'an, Shen Hui went back without hesitation—it was the result of enduring for 15 years.

She was ruthless, but also fragile. She was afraid of being taken back.

Now that she knew the cage she had never been able to break free from had peeled away from her body forever, it was like all the suffering had been removed. The myriad of mountains would welcome spring.

She anticipated it, yet didn't dare anticipate it. She was afraid it was all a dream.

Seeing the trembling light in Shen Hui's eyes, Shen Yue reached out and covered her eyes. "You can go back and ask third brother for the specifics of the situation. He should know by now too."

"After some time passes, those two people will have their sentence pronounced in the Supreme Court. Do you want to go?" Shen Yue asked.

After speaking, Shen Yue felt her palm gently scratched by eyelashes, but they were wet. After a long time, Shen Hui took a deep breath before speaking firmly, "Of course I have to go."

That night, Shen Hui chatted with Shen Shuangchen for a long time.

Shen Yue lay in bed and happened to open Si Chengyou's message again.

She only now discovered that after she sent Si Chengyou back a brown tabby cat emoji that morning, Si Chengyou hadn't replied again.

Shen Yue felt it might be because Si Chengyou didn't like tabby cats. After all, his profile pic was a British Shorthair cat.

Tsk, he actually doesn't like cute fat tabby cats. You should know that raising a tabby cat can give you the double happiness of raising both a cat and a pig at the same time! Killing two birds with one stone! People who don't understand tabby cats have it hard!

Si Chengyou, you don't like tabby cats! You have no taste!

At this moment, Si Chengyou, who was on the road, suddenly sneezed. He gently touched his nose, and suddenly had a strange feeling. He held his phone in his hand with the chat with Shen Yue still open on the screen. On it was the tabby cat...or maybe tabby pig, looking at him innocently but annoyingly.

The caption on the image was: You're awesome.

Si Chengyou was a cat lover - the cuter the cat, the more he liked it.

Many people like British Shorthair cats because they think BSH are beautiful, and some like hairless cats, etc., but Si Chengyou only loved round-faced, big-eyed, fluffy, dumb-looking cats.

Of all cats, only British Shorthairs fit that criteria the most. British Shorthairs had always been the cutest cats in his mind.

But now, as Si Chengyou looked at the tabby pig Shen Yue sent, he felt some hesitation.

Why...did he suddenly feel this breed was cute when he had never liked it before?

Were these cats really that cute?

Unsure, take another look.

And so Si Chengyou just kept staring at the tabby pig Shen Yue sent, his expression serious, motionless. Everyone else reporting things to him thought the boss was in a bad mood and finished up quickly.

Only Si Chengyou himself knew that amidst the frantic surge of thoughts in his mind, he had even figured out where to place the cat tree.

Si Chengyou didn't reply to Shen Yue's message—not because he didn't want to reply or because he didn't know what to say back.

He just wanted to admire the tabby pig.
