She walked all the way to Shen Rong’s room. Shen You entered the room and looked at the decorations in the room. This was the first time Shen You entered Shen Rong’s room.
In the past, in the Shen family, Shen You was like a guest. She would be watched wherever she went. In other words, she was worse than a familiar guest.
Shen Rong pulled out a chair and said to Shen You, “Sister, take a seat!”
Shen You smiled slightly and sat down on the chair.
“Sister, how’s your preparation for the competition?” Shen Rong asked curiously.
Shen You raised her eyebrows slightly. “Why are you curious about this?”
“Sister Jiao is also going to participate in the competition,” Shen Qian said and paused. “I still think you have a better chance of winning!”
Hearing Shen Rong’s words, the smile on Shen You’s face deepened. “You trust me so much?”
“Of course!” Shen Rong raised his chin slightly and said, “I know you’re very good!”
“Although I don’t know why your previous results were so bad…” Shen Rong pursed his lips tightly, as if he was thinking about something.
“Do you remember that previously when I came to your room to ask you questions, you always answered me very quickly?” Shen Rong looked at Shen You and asked.
“Yes, you always said it was a very difficult question…” Shen You smiled and said indifferently, “It was obviously a brainteaser!”
“Please! Those are all national competition questions!” Shen Rong snorted in dissatisfaction.
“Actually, before I showed you the questions, I went to see Sister Jiao first,” Shen Rong said after a moment of silence.
“I just don’t know if she didn’t want to answer me, or if she really didn’t know…” Shen Rong paused for a moment. “Every time, she would look at the questions for a long time and then tell me that she couldn’t solve them.”
This surprised Shen You. Shen Jiao had always been famous in her grade for being smart, beautiful, and good at her grades.
This time, she was recommended to participate in the national competition because of her good reputation. But, what if she didn’t have the ability?
Shen You didn’t want to make any more guesses. After all, such things would be answered very soon!
In Shen Rong’s room, the two studied a few more complicated competition questions.
Although Shen Rong’s foundation was better than Shen You’s, his thinking and flexibility were obviously not as good as hers.
This also made Shen Rong admire Shen You even more. The two studied the questions and suddenly forgot about the time.
It was not until Shen Jiao appeared at the door that the two suddenly realized that it was time to eat.
Shen Jiao stared at the two in a daze, her lips tightly pursed.
“Xiao Rong, Mom asked me to call you both.” Shen Jiao crossed her arms in front of her chest and leaned against the door frame as she said.
Shen Rong immediately stood up, held Shen You’s hand and said, “Sister You, we’ll study these questions after dinner.”
The two walked to the door and walked past Shen Jiao. Shen Jiao stood where she was and did not move.
Shen Rong looked back in confusion. “Sister Jiao, why aren’t you moving?”
Shen Jiao looked at Shen Yand asked, “Do you know why we called you back today?”
Shen You nodded and did not say anything.
“Since you knew it…” Shen Jiao narrowed her eyes and said, “You have accepted it?”
Hearing this, Shen You curled her lips slightly. “What? I can’t accept it?”
“Or…” Shen You took two steps in Shen Jiao’s direction and said slowly, “You don’t want me to accept it?”
Shen Jiao’s expression froze and her face turned even gloomier. “It’s your business, what does it have to do with me!”
Shen You’s smile deepened. She turned around and walked towards the living room while holding Shen Rong’s arm.
She took a few steps and stopped. Without turning around, she said, “Whether I want to get engaged to Zhao Nan or not, it’s up to me.”
“And you… can only wait for my decision!” After Shen You said that, she ignored Shen Jiao’s reaction and left with Shen Rong.
Shen Yu did not know why he suddenly felt a sense of joy in her heart. She shook her head and quickly followed Shen Rong to the dining room.
When the two entered the dining room, they found that Li Ru had already taken the main seat. As her father, Shen Hao, was not at home for a long time, Li Ru was in charge of all the major and minor matters in the family.
Li Ru saw Shen You and Shen Rong walking over but she did not see Shen Jiao. “Where’s Jiao?”
Shen You did not answer. She walked to her own seat and sat down.
“She’s at the back.” After Shen Rong said that, he also sat down in his own seat.
A moment later, Shen Jiao appeared in the dining room. Her face looked a little pale.
Seeing this, Li Ru quickly walked forward and held Shen Jiao’s hand. She asked, “Are you okay?”
Shen Jiao shook her head as if she was suppressing something. “I’m not feeling well. I want to go back to my room to rest first.”
“Okay! Go back and rest!” Li Ru said worriedly. “Do you need to see a doctor?”
Shen Jiao shook her head again. She looked very pitiful.
“I’ll accompany you back to your room,” Li Ru said as she helped Shen Jiao back to her room.
