After entering the book, I no longer want to be a substitute

What he said was completely unreasonable. Yunwu was terrified. She agreed on the surface, but she was extremely sad in her heart. Although Shiyu had some good ideas, they could not be used as a reason for him to harm innocent lives.

After the two returned to the orphanage, Shi Yu snatched Yun Wu's sketchbook, tore off the pages with the kitten and the children, leaving only the pages with the teacher and various plants, and asked her to draw herself, preferably in the character section, and only draw herself from now on.

Fearing that he would do something extreme again, Yunwu did not dare to tell the teacher about this.

From that day on, she no longer paid much attention to the remaining two kittens, for fear that Shi Yu would have bad intentions after seeing them.

In order to calm his emotions, Yunwu tried her best to play with him alone. Shiyu was very satisfied with this and temporarily restrained himself and behaved well.

The two sat together under a peach tree and painted, Yunwu painting Shiyu and Shiyu painting Yunwu. It was obvious that Shiyu was far inferior to Yunwu in terms of artistic savvy. Every time Yunwu saw him painting herself, she would shake her head and sigh.

It's ugly.

I thought so, but I didn't dare to say it. Yunwu's face was always happy, and I didn't dare to have any opinions about him. If I made him angry, I would be the one who suffered.

I thought everything would be fine, but Shi Yu soon became unhappy.

"You're pretending, aren't you?"

Hearing this question, Yunwu felt completely confused and asked him what was wrong.

"You don't want to play with me at all," Shi Yu dragged Yun Wu into the small room, very unhappy, "Apart from laughing and being happy, you don't show any other expression or emotion towards me. You are just deliberately coaxing me for the sake of the kitten, not sincerely."

There was a huge contrast between Shi Yu's immature appearance and his mature and dark mental state. Yun Wu didn't expect him to think of this and immediately panicked.

In fact, he was right. She did deliberately show off her positive emotions, but after being together for a long time, the pretense would be mixed with sincerity. It was not like she was just acting. She also regarded him as a good friend.

"Then what do you want to do?" Yunwu finally did not choose to leave. She stayed and asked him with a very sincere attitude and true feelings.

Shi Yu's cold and terrifying expression softened a little. He pulled Yun Wu's pigtail and said, "From now on, just talk however you want. Laugh when you should laugh, cry when you should cry. Don't laugh endlessly all the time. It's too fake."

"You know, if you really like someone, you should show your true self to them instead of pretending."

"If the other person really likes you, then no matter how many flaws you have, he or she will be able to accept them."

Yunwu only had a vague understanding and nodded in confusion. At that time, she couldn't help but think that Shiyu knew so much.

After this incident, the two became even more inseparable and stuck together all the time.

Seeing that Shiyu became cheerful, Teacher Lin did not stop him and let them interact freely.

Shi Yu was exceptionally smart, especially in his logical thinking ability. While other children were still struggling with mixed operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, he was already solving elementary equations.

Teacher Lin realized that Shiyu's potential talent in mathematics was unusual, so she found a lot of relevant information and let Shiyu study and solve the problems on his own.

The result was as she expected. Even without any special guidance, Shi Yu could solve various problems easily.

When Yunwu was doing her homework, she would often support her chin and look at Shiyu with a smile, telling him that she hoped he could become a great mathematician in the future, shine in the field of mathematical research, and find his own foothold.

Shi Yu said, this is meaningless.

She asked him what he wanted to do. Shi Yu did not answer and told her that she would know later.

One time, it was Yunwu's birthday, and Shiyu took her out during lunch break. This was Yunwu's first time running so far, and it was also her first time to visit an amusement park, a zoo, or other places.

Shi Yu didn't know where he got the money from, but he bought a cake for Yunwu. The children in the welfare home all celebrated their birthdays together, so it wasn't so personal.

Yunwu was still little, and she was so happy that she threw herself into Shiyu's arms. Shiyu didn't despise her, and he reached out to touch her hair. "Hurry up and make a wish. We have to go back soon."

When the two passed by a bridal shop, Yunwu stopped and asked him which dress he thought looked good.

Shi Yu said, "You will wear it later."

Yunwu had thought about doing all kinds of things when she grew up, but she had never thought about falling in love or getting married. Such things seemed distant and vague to the six-and-a-half-year-old Yunwu.

"Even after growing up, you're still the same as now." Shi Yu looked at her and said something strange.

Yunwu asked doubtfully, "How is it?"

"Listen only to me."

There was a kind of stubbornness and coldness in his eyes that did not belong to a child. Yunwu was frightened and stepped back repeatedly.

Shi Yu grabbed Yun Wu's hand and walked towards the welfare home. Although they were all children, there was a huge difference in their strength.

He said, "Marry me in the future."

"If you fall in love with someone else, the three of us will die together."

Yunwu didn't understand what marriage meant, nor did she understand what love and companionship meant. She also couldn't understand why she had to like him.

Just like choosing candy, does she have to eat only milk candy forever and not be able to choose other flavors?

When they got back, it was already very late. Teacher Lin searched everywhere but couldn't find them.

The consequence was that Shi Yu took the initiative to take responsibility for everything, pushed Yun Wu away, and went to receive the punishment himself.

There's always a kind of forced stiffness in the relationship between Yunwu and Shiyu, yet there's nothing awkward about it.

If a person is too independent and outstanding, he or she will be easily isolated and slandered among the general population.

Shiyu was so overly aggressive in his performance that he was the only one in the dozen or so children who were worth looking at. He also often interacted only with Yunwu, and gradually everyone disliked him, especially the boys.

At first, this dislike was only manifested in not talking to him or playing games with him. Later, it gradually became more serious. The children gathered together and thought of all kinds of pranks to bully him.

Unfortunately, most of the time, they fail to succeed and are often bullied.

Often at times like this, these children would turn the tables and accuse Shi Yu of teasing them, but Shi Yu just didn't like to explain, so the teachers had to believe him even if they didn't want to.

Seeing that it was useless to play tricks on him, they started to target Yunwu, but instead of maliciously harming her, they deliberately incited her and intentionally increased her prejudice against Shiyu.

Yunwu was not willing to join them, but she chose to persuade them. She ran to Shiyu and asked him to try not to cause trouble.

This undoubtedly adds fuel to the fire.

Shi Yu didn't think it was a big deal when he was targeted, but when he saw Yun Wu didn't believe him, he was furious.

What he hated most was seeing Yunwu defending others in front of him, not to mention that the fault was not his in the first place.
