Chapter 563 -563: I Am Your Sister (18)
Shen Ming settled into the apartment, where he wouldn’t be seen for several days at a time, but now he could be seen every day.
Shen Ming would bring his work home, and most of the time, Chuzheng either sat beside him watching or stood behind him with a stern little face, wandering around.
Shen Ming put down his work and turned to look at Chuzheng.
“What’s wrong?”
Chuzheng’s hands swiftly retreated behind her, her little face serious, “Nothing, just walking around.”
Shen Ming eyed her suspiciously, “Then don’t disturb Brother, Brother is working.”
“Oh.”
Chuzheng turned and walked away.
Shen Ming frowned slightly, feeling that she was acting a bit strange.
Chuzheng returned to her room and tossed the rope in her hand into a corner.
[…]The Good Person Card is really tough! I have to corrupt myself and be kept in mind by the corrupted lady.
Chuzheng suddenly remembered something.
“You didn’t give me Shen Ming’s information.” Bastard actually neglecting his duties!
[Little sister, because he has already been corrupted, the events you needed to prevent his corruption have already occurred, so the information is no longer important. Little sister, you need to work hard to obtain the Good Person Card now~]King’s Account spoke in a cheerful tone.
“…”So what if he’s corrupted!
–
The season transitioned into the rainy season, with unending dreary rain.
Since Shen Feng’s mother last sought out Chuzheng, the Shen Family hadn’t appeared again.
The situation at Shen Corporation was getting worse and worse.
Shen Ming had repeatedly asked Chuzheng roundabout questions.
It seemed that as long as she didn’t agree, Shen Corporation could be revived from the brink of death.
But what Chuzheng was secretly doing was making Shen Corporation go bankrupt to prevent those Shen Family dogs from coveting her and causing her trouble.
With Chuzheng’s intervention, Shen Corporation declared bankruptcy half a month later.
Bai Yuyao looked at the news on her phone, feeling the terror and anxiety of the past few days finally settling down.
“Yuyao.”
“Dad?” Bai Yuyao put down her phone.
“Did you see the news?” Father Bai came down from upstairs, sitting across from Bai Yuyao.
“Yes.” Bai Yuyao nodded.
Father Bai’s face showed a hint of a relieved smile, “With Shen Corporation’s bankruptcy, our Bai Family can rise now. You must get along well with Song Jing. Once you graduate, Dad will talk to the Song Family about the engagement.”
Bai Yuyao’s cheeks seemed to flush as she coquettishly said, “Dad.”
“It’s inevitable, no need to be shy now,” Father Bai laughed twice, “We managed to topple Shen Corporation so quickly, we should thank my precious daughter. Now you’ve gotten your wish.”
Bai Yuyao, her face reddening even more at the thought, stood up and ran upstairs.
Father Bai shook his head with a smile as someone entered from outside: “Boss.”
“Yes, how’s it going?”
“The news is all about Shen Corporation’s bankruptcy right now. I’ll handle the necessary precautions. There won’t be any problems.”
“Good, the Shen Family has suppressed our Bai Family for so many years, now the tables are finally turning,” Father Bai snorted coldly.
“Boss, I have a doubt.”
Father Bai: “What is it?”
“Shen Corporation should have been able to hold on for a while longer. Is there something we don’t know about happening inside?”
Father Bai thought for a moment: “What did Shen Feng say?”
“Nothing.”
“If even Shen Feng doesn’t think there’s a problem, then there is no problem. Tell Shen Feng to take the money and leave quickly; I don’t want to see them again,” there was a flicker of malice in Father Bai’s eyes.
The internal factions within Shen Corporation were severely divided.
“Alright, I’ll get on it.” After a pause, the person added, “Boss, I’m still a bit worried about Shen Ming.”
“Shen Ming… a person who has been expelled from the Shen Family, what storm can he stir up? The biggest mistake of the Shen Family was to expel Shen Ming out of their home. I don’t know what he would think once he wakes up to see this scene.”
The person glanced at Father Bai, who was smiling with triumph, and said no more.
–
School.
As soon as Chuzheng entered the school gates, she was met with various looks.
Some were of sympathy, others of pity, and some seemed to take pleasure in her misfortune.

“Boss, Boss, is it true about the Shen Family…” Fatty approached with extreme care, as if afraid that any wrong word might hurt Chuzheng.
“Yeah.”
“So…” Fatty scratched his head, “what are you going to do now?”
With the Shen Family bankrupt, how would the Boss live from now on?
“Just like this.” What else could be done?
Bankruptcy is what everyone wanted, right?
Now that it’s happened, you won’t bother me anymore, will you!
“Boss, if you need money…” Fatty said with a sincere face, patting his chest, “just tell me, I have money.”
Chuzheng quickly replied, “I don’t need money.” Don’t talk to me about money!
“…” If it were his family that had gone bankrupt, he would probably be in tears right now.
With the way the Boss was acting, she must be pretending to be strong.
Fatty decided not to expose Chuzheng.
The first day of Shen’s bankruptcy: Chuzheng was treated like a monkey by everyone.
The second day of Shen’s bankruptcy: Chuzheng was still treated like a monkey by everyone.
The third day of Shen’s bankruptcy: Chuzheng… It was the weekend, and there were no classes.
When Chuzheng opened the door, she saw Shen Ming wearing an apron making breakfast, a man usually cold and aloof, now imbued with a touch of domesticity, seeming a little less stern.
She walked over and sat down.
Hearing the noise, Shen Ming didn’t turn as he asked, “Awake?”
Chuzheng watched his back without a trace of emotion.
Shen Ming turned around, and there sat the girl amidst the morning light, her coldness and aloofness tinged with a warm hue.
Shen Ming heard his heartbeat quicken.
He turned off the stove and walked over to drop a kiss on her forehead.
Chuzheng looked up at him, her cool and limpid gaze seemingly hiding a touch of bewilderment.
Shen Ming hadn’t made any improper moves these past days, fearing that he would scare her, but now he found it hard to control himself.
His fingertips traced down Chuzheng’s cheek… The skin he touched was delicate and soft, as if a pinch could squeeze out water.
Chuzheng, with her eyes open, just watched him with her cool, clear gaze.
The morning light grew warmer, and Shen Ming felt like he was on fire.
He abruptly let go of Chuzheng.
And took several steps back.
Chuzheng maintained her previous posture, the darkness before her eyes clearing away, and she blinked, “Brother?”
Clenching his fists tightly, he suddenly turned and gave a light cough, “Go wash up, we’ll have breakfast soon.”
“Oh.”
Shen Ming heard the sound of the chair being slightly dragged behind him, followed by footsteps.
Approaching closer and closer.
Shen Ming turned slightly to the side.
The footsteps stopped beside him, and then there was silence.
The room suddenly quieted down.
“Sorry…” Shen Ming apologized out of the blue.
“Mm.” Chuzheng walked past.
Shen Ming: “…”
Shen Ming waited until Chuzheng entered her room, then leaned on the tabletop, breathing slightly hard.
Why had he just apologized?
Wasn’t this what he had been considering all along?
But her earnest tone made Shen Ming feel like he had committed some great sin if he didn’t apologize.
Shen Ming looked down, sighed, and returned to his own room.
