Shen Yu had already installed cameras all over the Shen family home to make it easier to observe the actions of his second personality.
He went to the monitoring room to check the surveillance footage from last night and saw how he had acted cowardly and foolishly in front of Yu Tang, making a complete fool of himself.
The anger that had just subsided began to surge up again, and he gripped his cane so tightly that the veins bulged, wishing he could kill Yu Tang right now to silence him.
"Brother, why are you crying?"
Shen Yu was taken aback when those words suddenly came from the screen.
He paused the recording and zoomed in on Yu Tang's face. Sure enough, he saw that the other man's eyes were slightly red, and even in the dim light, he could see something glistening in them.
Shen Yu remained silent, his killing intent dissipating, and a strange mix of emotions welled up within him.
It's a little sour, and a little bloated.
This was the first time someone had ever shed tears for him.
[Ding—Shen Yu's favorability +2, current favorability 52.002!]
Yu Tang was in the bathroom when he heard the notification, and his zipper almost got stuck in the fabric, which startled him.
He asked the system: "System, what's he doing? Why did his favorability suddenly increase? And it wasn't even a stingy 0.001 increase, but he gave me 2 points directly. I'm so flattered!"
"Let me take a look."
The system replied: "He's watching last night's security footage."
[Maybe he was moved by you?]
Yu Tang: Oh, I see. Then at least he has some conscience.
Shen Yu watched the surveillance footage five times, seeing Yu Tang cook for him, feed him, and patiently coax him with a gentle expression and eyes full of genuine tenderness.
That was what he longed for most when he was a child.
Unexpectedly, he obtained it from this man who was lurking beside him, who might turn on him at any moment.
How ironic.
Shen Yu found it laughable.
But after laughing, he couldn't help but wonder what would happen if he could completely turn Yu Tang into his own person.
If Yu Tang liked him instead of Han Zichen;
Yu Tang's most loyal person is not Han Zichen, but Shen Yu.
What will happen?
He wanted to give it a try.
Keep the man by your side, make him only have eyes for you, and make him show that infatuated expression when he mentions Shen Yu's name to others.
Just thinking about it makes me think...it's really great...
Yu Tang had just finished breakfast with the servants when he was escorted to a black Maybach by two tall bodyguards in black.
The car window opened, revealing Shen Yu's handsome face.
"Mr. Shen, what do you mean by this?" Yu Tang couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Get in the car..." Shen Yu noticed his unease and deliberately said, "I'm taking you to get your tongue removed."
Before Yu Tang could resist, the bodyguard shoved him into the back seat of the car.
The driver in the front seat couldn't help but glance back.
This was the first time that Master Shen had allowed someone to sit with him in the back seat.
I wonder what this maid's identity is?
"Mr. Shen, I've already made guarantees." Yu Tang asked, puzzled, "Why do you still want to pull out my tongue?"
Lowering the partition inside the car and starting the engine, Shen Yu glanced at him and said, "I can pull it off whenever I want. You're just my servant. What right do you have to ask me all this and that?"
Seeing Yu Tang's discomfiture, Shen Yu's lips curled into a slight smile, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
It's just like a child who has won an argument.
Shen Yu said he was taking Yu Tang to have his tongue removed, but he was lying to him.
When they arrived at the destination, Yu Tang learned that the other party had come to see a doctor named Song Cheng.
Shen Yu went into the office, while he sat in the rest area outside to wait, accompanied by a tall bodyguard, as if afraid that he would run away.
While sitting there idly counting the number of leaves on the potted plants on the table, Yu Tang was suddenly awakened by the system's voice.
[Host, Han Zichen has arrived.]
No sooner had he finished speaking than a limited-edition, flashy sports car appeared outside the private hospital.
The car door opened, and Han Zichen, the protagonist of this novel, who is extremely handsome and has a great figure, strode out of the car, carrying a man with a very sour face in his arms.
Yu Tang: Tongtong, isn't that man the protagonist, Shou Yunqing?
"Yes."
The system replied: [Yun Qing twisted his ankle while filming on set. Han Zichen was extremely worried and immediately had his driver take him to this nearest hospital.]
After the system finished speaking, the hospital's automatic glass doors opened, and Han Zichen anxiously carried Yun Qing in. He immediately saw Yu Tang sitting on the sofa in the lobby and paused for a moment.
Yu Tang quickly understood the look in his eyes.
The general meaning can be understood as: Holy crap, how are you still alive? How did you survive Shen Yu?
And another thing: You're still alive and you haven't contacted me? My Han family has raised you for nothing all these years!
Their eyes were still meeting when the door to Song Cheng's office opened, and Shen Yu happened to walk out, instantly turning the scene into chaos.
"What a coincidence..." Shen Yu spoke first, breaking the delicate atmosphere.
His gaze fell on Yun Qing's face: "Aren't you that... um... sorry, I can't remember what your name is, that obscure celebrity?"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect Shen Yu to be so sharp-tongued!" The system laughed uncontrollably.
"I remember you were going in and out of a hotel with a female celebrity just a few days ago. How come you're being carried to the hospital by President Han today?"
Shen Yu chuckled lightly, dressed in a moon-white robe, his handsome face seemingly radiating an ethereal aura that made everyone around him pale in comparison.
He looked at Han Zichen and uttered a sarcastic remark that didn't match his appearance: "I never expected that after all these years, President Han would still be so fond of picking up used shoes everywhere."
[He's plundering bamboo shoots! He's taken all the bamboo shoots from the mountain!]
Yu Tang was also struggling to suppress his laughter.
He truly didn't expect that Shen Yu would speak to Han Zichen even more harshly than he did to him.
Moreover, their insults backfired, leaving the main characters, the top and the bottom, speechless and turning pale.
"Shen Yu!" Han Zichen's fingers trembled with anger: "You have no evidence whatsoever, stop slandering Yun Qing!"
"I don't need evidence to insult someone," Shen Yu retorted calmly, walking slowly to Yu Tang and looking down at him with disdain: "Aren't you leaving yet? Are you going to stay here for the New Year?"
"Oh, okay." Yu Tang was caught off guard by the question and quickly stood up.
Shen Yu walked ahead of him, leaning on his cane, and said coldly as he passed Han Zichen.
"A dog that's been kicked out can never be brought back."
"You don't want him, but I do."
Chapter 9
Died a second time for the villain (09)
Han Zichen's expression changed several times upon hearing this, but surprisingly he did not retort to Shen Yu, allowing Shen Yu to pass by him.
His gaze fell on Yu Tang's face with a hint of deeper meaning.
Yu Tang pretended not to see it, lowered his head and walked away quickly.
As the two sat in the car, Yu Tang still couldn't understand why Shen Yu would make his point so clear in front of Han Zichen.
He had previously guessed that Shen Yu kept him by his side to counter-espionage Han Zichen. But now it seems that the other party clearly didn't mean that.
He could tolerate the first sentence that called him a dog, but the second sentence surprised him.
What does it mean to say, "You don't want him, but I do"?
That sounds incredibly cheesy.
Anyone who didn't know better would think that Shen Yu had taken a liking to him.
"Take this..." A voice suddenly came from beside him, and Yu Tang instinctively caught the thing that was thrown to him.
They found a bottle of medicated oil and a box of medicine.
"Take care of the wound on your neck yourself when you get back." Shen Yu leaned on his cane, not looking at him, but speaking to him: "Take one pill twice a day to treat your throat."
Yu Tang was completely stunned.
Has Shen Yu been possessed by some ghost?
Why are you suddenly being so nice to him?
"You saw it yourself just now," Shen Yu sneered. "Han Zichen doesn't care about you at all. Rather than working for him any longer, you might as well become one of mine."
Yu Tang was still confused and subconsciously asked, "Become your person? In what way?"
Only after asking did I realize that my question was ambiguous.
As expected, Shen Yu was taken aback, his expression turning somewhat strange: "You don't still want to climb into my bed, do you?"
"Do you think what I just said to Han Zichen was for your sake?"
"You don't still think I like you, do you?"
Who do you think you are, to think I'd like you?
"There's a limit to being delusional, isn't there?"
Yu Tang hadn't thought anything of it at first, but now that Shen Yu was asking him five consecutive questions in a row, and had this "No way, no way, you don't think I like you, do you?" look on his face as he was trying to clear his name, Yu Tang suddenly started to feel something was off.
Thinking this, he composed himself, lowered his eyes, and gently rubbed the medicine bottle in his hand: "Master Shen has misunderstood me."
"I'm not so presumptuous as to presume to be romantic about you."
