You are my wife, don't doubt it!

Shen Jie clearly remembered that in the auditorium of the "graduation ceremony", this stupid guy insisted on letting the three of them escape from the cage, while he stood alone at the edge of the turntable, trying his best to hold up the turntable.

"You guys go first, I'll find a way out by myself, no problem!" Hearing this idiot say this and looking at the rising molten iron, Shen Jie seemed to see a hand with a thumbs up sinking into the furnace of steel and fire.

She still remembered how she was holding up the iron bars, helpless and anxious with tears in her eyes.

She still has lingering fears from the heart-wrenching pain.

Did he really care about this guy so much? Even though he was lazy, willful, and stubborn as hell.

Although she was reluctant to admit it, Shen Jie had to face a cruel reality - she had almost forgiven him so quickly.

She was like a young wife who ran back to her parents' home after being wronged in a quarrel. Even if she had calmed down, she still wanted her husband to smile, bring gifts, bow and nod, and apologize.

Instead of being content with myself like I am now...

and many more?

Hey, what on earth is he doing?

Shen Jie came back to her senses from her wild thoughts.

A sudden feeling of humiliation came over her.

……

……

……

Xiao Yao suddenly stood up, jumped off the bed, tiptoed to the closet, and opened the row of small drawers where Shen Jie and Shen Tianyun kept their underwear.

"What are you doing?" Shen Jie shouted, "That's where Tianyun puts her clothes!"

"Ah," Xiao Yao quickly closed the drawer: "Which drawer do you put your socks in?"

"I won't wear it!" Shen Jie finally found an excuse to get angry: "I'm not your technician!"

"What's the point of being a technician or not...Okay, okay, then don't wear it." Xiao Yao climbed onto the bed on tiptoe again.

"Get down! Go back to the sofa and sleep!" Shen Jie's reason took over the upper hand again.

“…” Xiao Yao decided to ignore her.

"You pressed on my knee wound!"

"Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry..."

"Get out of the way!" Shen Jie stood up suddenly, lowered the hem of her clothes, and groped for her slippers on the ground with her feet.

"Where are you going?" Xiao Yao asked puzzledly.

"I'll go sleep across the street."

"What are you doing? We're already halfway done. What if you...our dad catches us on the other side?"

"Then go to sleep on the sofa. I'm not in the mood now."

"Oh my aunt, please stop making trouble--" Xiao Yao bent his waist, looking painful.

"Don't make a fuss! I've already broken up with you!" Shen Jie blurted out: "When will you learn to respect other people's wishes?"

"Break up?" Xiao Yao repeated the word in an incredulous tone.

Shen Jie knew that Xiao Yao was angry - he always seemed to get angry easily.

The girl suddenly felt a little worried. She realized that if she really fought with the tall boy who possessed Don Quixote's martial arts, she might not be able to gain the upper hand.

What if he uses force?

Shen Jie was a little scared, but at the same time she felt slightly excited.

Xiao Yao's body temperature gradually dropped and he was breathing heavily.

"What's wrong? Are you going to hit me?" The girl turned her cheek provocatively, as if she was secretly expecting something in her heart.

"You, ah..." Xiao Yao was deflated and sat down.

Shen Jie groped around on the bed, grabbed a pair of pants and threw it on Xiao Yao's belly.

Chapter 150: Middle School Students' Lights-Out Sleep Chat

2023-04-03

Even though it is summer, sleeping on the sofa is still an uncomfortable thing.

Xiao Yao curled up, feeling as if his body was being crushed.

His neck and back ached, as if an invisible force was constantly squeezing him. The boy tried to adjust his posture, but the hardness and discomfort of the sofa made him feel helpless.

He turned over slightly, and it felt like countless needles were piercing his bones, making it difficult to fall asleep. His mind kept replaying what happened today, and he became more irritated.

Closing his eyes, he seemed to see his whole body submerged in molten iron.

Yu Luying lifted her skirt and ran towards him without looking back.

He saw Song Haijian busy at his desk in the office. Suddenly, a large truck crashed through the wall and ran over him.

He saw Shen Jie push him off the bed again and tell him "I've broken up with you."

"Work hard, work hard, work hard," "Scores, scores, scores," "Get out of this test-oriented world if you don't meet the standards," and "The college entrance examination is the only ladder to success" kept echoing in his mind. This song played over and over in his heart, and he wanted to stop, but he couldn't.

What a disgusting feeling!

Xiao Yao tried to counter Song Haijian's song by singing "Our love, alas, once it's gone, it will never come back~" in his heart - and then stopped because it was too unlucky.

His eyes turned to the mist outside the window.

Ever since I saw Shen Tianyun's room, there has always been a fog outside the window. I can't see day or night, spring, summer, autumn or winter, wind, thunder or rain...

It's like the confusing youth and future.

Just like that, I slowly fell into a shallow sleep, and I didn't know whether I was asleep or not.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but Xiao Yao heard Shen Jie getting out of bed to go to the bathroom and peeing while sitting on the spittoon.

The sound of water hitting the spittoon was particularly obvious in the quiet night.

Xiao Yao turned over, and the "hissing" sound paused for a moment, and after seven or eight seconds, it sounded again.

"Baby." Xiao Yao called softly.

"What are you doing?" Shen Jie was shocked, as if she was caught doing something bad. She felt embarrassed and annoyed: "Turn away! Why are you still not sleeping so late?"

"Why are you turning your face? No one can see you in the dark - you snore too loudly, so I can't sleep."

"Then go back to your room and sleep, and let Tianyun come back. It was you who insisted on staying here."

"...Wife, do you think Song Haijian's death has something to do with us?" Xiao Yao was silent for a moment, then asked.

"Why are you still thinking about Song Haijian?" Shen Jie picked up a stack of toilet paper: "It has nothing to do with us, okay? When I ran over, Song Haijian had already been killed by Paddington."

"Nottingham." Xiao Yao said.

The young man secretly found it funny - you had said shamelessly in the church before, "It would not be unfair if we kill this kind of person now, we are doing justice for the heavens", but now you are trying hard to shift the blame away.

"I'm thinking that Nottington and Joan might have taken advantage of the fact that we opened the gate of the monastery to sneak in. Maybe we distracted Song Haijian when we were fighting the tanks, so Nottington had the chance to succeed - is this possible?"

Shen Jie remained silent.

"Teacher Song Haijian, who was showing off in front of me a few days ago and saying 'He who knows the times is a hero' in a strange accent, is gone now. Don't blame me for always thinking about him." Xiao Yao explained.

"Yeah." Shen Jie responded softly.

"Shen Jie," Xiao Yao said, "I'm wondering, what should I do in the future?"

"Later, what later? How could such a big country be short of a teacher?" Shen Jie snapped the lid of the spittoon shut, pushed it under the bed, and lightly lifted her legs to get on the bed.

"No, what should we do? What should you do?" Xiao Yao said, "Although I am very happy that you live with me, you have to go back eventually. How can we make you reconcile with your father and solve your current problems? The two of us... can't keep hiding like this and hide here like rats."

"That's great," Shen Jie said, her tone unclear whether it was a sigh or sarcasm: "You finally care about tomorrow's events."

"I've always kept your affairs in mind." Xiao Yao said.

Shen Jie said faintly: "My business? - Rather than what we should do, you should think more about what you and Yu Luying should do, right?"

"What can we do?" Xiao Yao said anxiously, "On the way to Zhouzhuang that day, we agreed to be good friends."

"Just be good friends," Shen Jie paused and said, "Xiao Yao, you are 16 years old. Legally speaking, you can be held criminally responsible. You should learn to take responsibility for many things. Even if the symbiosis thing happened, it is not your responsibility, but you and silly girl have such a strong bond. How do you plan to settle her? You can't let her stay single for the rest of her life, right?"

"Why do you sound like Yu Luying's mother..." Xiao Yao muttered.

"This is a very realistic problem," Shen Jie told him, "Yu Luying's mother forced you to be with her because of the same concerns, right?"

"First of all, you are the only one I love now," Xiao Yao told Shen Jie, "You blame me for hiding the symbiosis from you. I admit that I was wrong, but have you ever thought about it? I was afraid that you would think so, so I didn't tell you."

"Quibbling." Shen Jie commented.

"Also, the symbiosis between her and me has weakened. This is a good start," Xiao Yao said.

"Who knows if he will come back? It's not the first time." Shen Jie said lightly.

"Third, besides my love for you, we have to consider Tianyun, right? You can't say that I'm using my daughter to threaten you and kidnap you when I mention Tianyun—"

"Okay." Shen Jie said softly.

The two fell into a brief silence.

"As for your father," Xiao Yao spoke again, "it should be very difficult to get him to agree to you and me in a short period of time, right?"

"Be more confident," Shen Jie said, "Except for the short period of time."

"Uh……"

"Besides, whether we will have a future together is still unclear." Shen Jie added.

When Xiao Yao heard this, he immediately became annoyed and asked, "Why are you like this?"

"What's wrong with me?" Shen Jie asked calmly.

"Can you stop breaking up? It's been a few days. Can you stop now?" Xiao Yao blurted out, "I don't feel safe at all when you're like this."

"Enough is enough? You're telling me enough is enough?" Shen Jie's tone was also filled with anger: "So, I, Shen Jie, only have the freedom to date you in this life, not the freedom to break up?"

Xiao Yao was furious when he heard this. He threw off the blanket, jumped off the sofa, and trotted onto Shen Jie's bed: "Yes!"

Shen Jie did not give in to him this time, but pushed Xiao Yao aside with all her strength. Xiao Yao reached out to grab her, but she crawled out from under Xiao Yao's armpits like a loach, jumped off the bed, trotted to the sofa and lay down, and the two of them exchanged places.

"The key is to deal with your father." Xiao Yao held the corner of the quilt that still had Shen Jie's body temperature in his hands, and decided to bring the rhythm of the conversation to his side. "I have thought of a few ways, you listen. Plan one, just confront him, bring him to see Tian Yun, and tell him everything. Maybe your father will love his granddaughter very much when he sees her?"

Shen Jie lay on the sofa, silent, neither saying a word of agreement nor expressing any objection.

"Plan 2," Xiao Yao continued to talk about himself: "Actually, whether he recognizes me, Xiao Yao, is not the most important thing. The most important thing right now is to cancel Zhang Zhengkai's engagement."

“……”The girl remained silent.

"That is to say, from your father's point of view, even if I cannot let you belong to me temporarily, you cannot belong to anyone else."

"I'm not a thing. I don't belong to you or anyone else." Shen Jie spoke.

"Well, you are nothing."

"? Is this funny?" Shen Jie asked him.

"Is not funny."

"Actually, I have thought about how to tell my father." Shen Jie finally entered the topic started by Xiao Yao.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yao asked, stretching his head.

"I want to persuade my father that the Zhang family is just coveting our Shen family's property." Shen Jie told him.

"Oh?" Xiao Yao said.

"Think about it, I'm the only daughter of my father. Marrying me to Zhang Zhengkai can certainly solve the immediate problem, but in the long run, isn't it just sending myself to be eaten up by others?" Xiao Yao couldn't see Shen Jie's expression in the dark.

"What does... eating up the entire family mean?" Xiao Yao was confused.

"I'm going to tell my dad this," Shen Jie said, "Xiao Yao has no parents, no background, is stupid and dumb, obedient and easy to control, is tall, not ugly, and most importantly, is devoted to me. He's an excellent candidate for a live-in son-in-law."

"..." Xiao Yao felt a little hurt in his self-esteem after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was just a persuasive speech, so he didn't need to care about it: "Are you serious, or are you kidding me?"

"Are you serious?" Shen Jie sat up.

"Do you think your father will believe what you said?" Xiao Yao began to feel secretly happy again, thinking that Shen Jie had finally gotten back on track to working together with him.

"I don't know." Shen Jie shook her head gently: "Actually, I don't really understand these."
