After Miss Shen became beautiful alone, her five brothers cried and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 40 His sister will never come back
Shen drank the porridge cooked by Song Yanxi again, but his insomnia did not improve.
After returning home, he took some sedatives and felt very sleepy and dizzy, but couldn't fall asleep.
He went downstairs dazed and happened to meet Song Yanxi.
"Xixi," Shen sat on the sofa again, closing his eyes uncomfortably, "Can you give me a massage? Just like Sui Huan used to do."
When Song Yanxi heard this, a trace of barely perceptible disgust flashed across her face.
But she quickly adjusted her expression and smiled gently, "Of course, second brother. I'm happy to help you. But fourth brother's training is about to start. The competition is in a week, I..."
Just at this moment, Shen Si came down from upstairs with the key. He didn't hear what they said and urged, "Xixi, hurry up, we should leave."
Then he noticed Shen You sitting on the sofa, "Second brother, you're here too? Did your insomnia get better after drinking the soup Xixi made?"
Shen wanted to shake his head again, but his head shook and he closed his eyes uncomfortably.
Shen Si thought he was better now and could even fall asleep while sitting on the sofa, so he pulled Song Yanxi away.
Leaning on the sofa, Shen You's thoughts unconsciously drifted to Shen Suihuan.
Even when she was in her senior year of high school and was at her busiest academically, she never stopped giving him massages.
Opening his eyes, Shen looked at the empty living room again, feeling bitter in his heart.
He suddenly realized that he might have done something wrong.
Shen rubbed his temples again, trying to ease the headache, but with little effect.
He stood up and walked towards the kitchen. He said to the busy maid, his voice full of fatigue: "Is there any soup left from yesterday? Pour me a bowl."
He pressed his brows and sat down uncomfortably in the restaurant. He drank another bowl of soup to see if he could fall asleep.
The maid stopped what she was doing and turned to face Shen You, an apologetic look on her face. "Second Young Master, the soup is gone. I threw it away when I was cleaning the kitchen yesterday. Sixth Miss said that the soup should be simmered for one meal at a time, otherwise it will go bad if left overnight."
The maid muttered quietly, "What a waste! So many good herbs, and it takes a full six hours to boil. And you have to keep an eye on it the whole time. If you're not careful, it might dry up or get ruined."
Shen listened to these words again, and a pang of sadness welled up in his heart.
He never imagined that a small bowl of soup would require so much effort.
He suddenly realized that he had ignored Sui Huan's efforts before, and he felt a little guilty.
"Then make me another bowl now. Send it to my room when it's ready." After saying that, he prepared to get up and go upstairs to rest.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across the maid's face, and she lowered her head and said, "Second Young Master, I don't know how. Only the Sixth Young Lady knows how to make soup."
Her voice gradually faded. "I saw that Miss Six was working so hard, so I wanted to learn how to share the burden with her. She was so busy... but I didn't learn it."
In fact, she had learned it out of selfish reasons so that she could please the master family. Even if she didn't work in the Shen family anymore, working in other families would be a skill, but she couldn't learn it!
Shen frowned again, a hint of confusion in his voice, "Then how did Xixi survive yesterday?"
It took Song Yanxi less than an hour to leave the hospital and return, but that was nothing compared to the love Shen Suihuan had spent six hours stewing.
Shen suddenly realized that the care he once took for granted had now become so precious and out of reach.
The maid lowered her head, looking bewildered. "I don't know. Miss Xixi just asked me for the prescription and told me to buy the herbs. After she got them, she went into the kitchen by herself and didn't let me help."
As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something and looked up, "Oh, Second Young Master, this is the invoice for the medicine."
The maid took out a folded piece of paper from her pocket and handed it to Shen You carefully.
Shen took the invoice again, his eyes falling on the number on it, his pupils shrinking slightly. The cost of three thousand yuan for the medicinal materials was a figure that made him feel a little heavy.
"How many days' supply...are these medicines enough?" Shen You's voice was low, with a barely perceptible tremor.
The maid answered truthfully, "This is a day's supply, Second Young Master. Sixth Miss always asks me to buy ten days' supply. Yesterday I asked Miss Xixi how much I wanted, and she only let me buy one day's supply."
After hearing this, Shen You was filled with mixed emotions. Sui Huan had never told him about the medicine money.
However, the children of the Shen family have a monthly allowance of 100,000 yuan. Sui Huan lives at home and has low daily expenses, so it should be enough to pay for the cost of these medicinal materials.
This thought seemed to comfort him a little, but deep down he still felt a dull pain. Xixi's pocket money was only slightly more than Suihuan's, not less.
Seeing Shen was silent for a long time, the maid carefully broke the silence, "Second Young Master, medicinal herbs... do you want to buy more?"
Shen felt uncomfortable again, his face turned even paler, and he waved his hand, "No need."
He went upstairs and lay on the bed. Although he was very sleepy, he couldn't fall asleep. Shen Suihuan was all in his mind.
In the evening, Shen Si and Song Yanxi walked into the house talking and laughing.
Shen Si's eyes flashed with a rare light of approval. He turned to Song Yanxi and said with some satisfaction: "Xixi, you have made great progress."
Song Yanxi's face flushed when she heard these words, and her eyes were filled with joy. She lowered her head slightly and responded softly, "This is all thanks to my second brother's careful teaching."
Shen Si was about to tell her that while her progress was significant, it wasn't enough to reach the highest level. He had already found the expert who had flown the drone at school that day. If that person joined the team, Song Yanxi would have to take a back seat.
However, before he could finish his words, the butler's voice came from behind him.
"Miss Xixi," the housekeeper said respectfully, "could you tell me where the items that Sixth Miss left behind are now?"
These words were like a heavy hammer, instantly shattering the smile on Shen Si's face.
His expression suddenly turned cold, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and he said sternly: "What Sixth Miss? She has already left the Shen family. She is no longer a member of the Shen family, let alone the Sixth Miss!"
The butler was startled by this sudden anger and quickly bowed his head to apologize, carefully changing his words: "Yes, yes, the fourth young master is right, it was a slip of the tongue. Miss Xixi, the truth is, the second young master wants to take back the amulet he once gave to Miss Sui Huan."
Hearing this request, Song Yanxi's face turned pale instantly, her body trembled slightly, and a trace of panic and uneasiness flashed in her eyes.
"Why does second brother want to get the amulet back? It's not that I don't want to return it, it's just that..." She bit her lower lip, her eyes slightly red, and she looked very aggrieved.
Seeing her aggrieved expression, Shen Si's anger immediately surged to the top of his head. He shouted angrily: "She is capable enough to give all those things to Xixi and sever ties with the Shen family! How can she have the nerve to ask for things?"
