Chapter 44
Shen Yuexi's fingertips curled up slightly, feeling bitter in her heart as she looked at the harmonious scene between the brother and sister in front of her.

The rest was swallowed back by Shen Yuexi. She didn't know for a moment whether Shen Yubai would care about her explanation.

Standing there sadly, Shen Yuexi said nothing in the end.

But Shen Yubai's eyes were always on Shen Yuerong, so he naturally couldn't notice Shen Yuexi's loss.

"Some people have done so many bad things, but in the end they get care, while those who really put in their efforts can only watch from the sidelines. What's the truth?"

Shen Yuexi's experience caused everyone outside the light curtain to express their dissatisfaction.

He even looked at Shen Yubai meaningfully, "I didn't have much contact with Brother Shen before, but today is an eye-opener."

Lin Yang quietly looked at his senior brother's expression, and seeing that he was silent, he bit the bullet and explained for him: "The only blame is that Shen Yuerong is too cunning. Senior brother, he was also deceived, which led to unclear recognition of people."

"Humph." The man snorted lightly, noncommittal.

Lin Yang moved his lips, wanting to argue for Shen Yubai.

A slender hand stretched out from the side to interrupt Lin Yang.

"Brother..."

Shen Yubai shook his head silently and signaled Lin Yang to stop talking.

Lin Yang had no choice but to shut up.

The monk's tone was a little mocking, "It seems that your senior brother is more self-aware than you."

Shen Yubai did not deny it, nor did he open his mouth to defend himself. He simply said to Lin Yang, "Keep reading."

He himself also had many things that he couldn't understand and wanted to know the truth.

The provocative monk was asking for trouble, so he could only shut up angrily and continue to look towards the light curtain.

In the light curtain, after Shen Yubai detoxified, his body was recovering day by day.

In this process, Shen Yuexi must work hard every day to collect herbs and forage for food.

It's just that these achievements will always be cut off by Shen Yuerong for various reasons.

Although Shen Yuexi could see Shen Yuerong's little thoughts, Shen Yubai's partial attitude made her feel despair. She was tired of explaining and simply let nature take its course.

After being able to walk around, Shen Yubai went up the mountain and started chopping firewood.

"Brother, you have just recovered, so don't work so hard."

Shen Yuerong didn't want to help, but she said something nice, and Shen Yubai really thought she was out of concern.

Shen Yubai: "You should find a place to have a good rest first. The ruined temple is leaking and it is not a long-term place to stay. Brother, go chop firewood and build a wooden house so that you can sleep much more peacefully at night."

Shen Yuerong's face was filled with emotion, "Brother, you are so kind to me."

Shen Yubai rubbed Shen Yuerong's head lovingly, "Go and rest quickly. You have worked hard these days. Now my brother's body has almost recovered. I will just take care of you from now on."

Shen Yuerong then lazed away with peace of mind.

Shen Yuexi went out early in the morning. There was not much to eat nearby. Today she planned to go farther to find food.

It was not until night that Shen Yuexi returned to the ruined temple.

When she returned, she found that the ruined temple was deserted.

At first, Shen Yuexi thought something had happened and her face was full of panic.

She calmed down quickly and found that there were no signs of fighting or dragging in the temple. "Brother, they should be fine. They just left the ruined temple."

But then came disappointment, because she realized that Shen Yubai and the others left without saying a word and did not consider her existence at all.

Disappointed, Shen Yuexi left the ruined temple and walked aimlessly for a long time.

At this time, she saw a looming fire not far away.

Shen Yuexi felt happy, could it be...

Quickly running towards the direction of the fire, Shen Yuexi saw a newly renovated cabin here.The fire that attracted Shen Yuexi came from the bonfire Shen Yubai set up next to her.

"Sister, why are you back?" Shen Yuerong was surprised when he saw her. She covered her mouth and said, "You left secretly in the morning. We thought you didn't plan to come back. Wuwuwu..."

Shen Yuexi tried to explain, "I just went to find a way to find something to eat."

She carefully took out an oil paper bag from her body. Before she opened it, an alluring fragrance came from inside.

Shen Yuerong couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then swallowed hard. It tasted like roast chicken!

Shen Yuexi opened the oil paper, and there was indeed a roast chicken inside, still warm.

Shen Yuerong's mouth suddenly watered.

"Let's eat with big brother."

Hearing Shen Yuexi's words, Shen Yuerong was not very happy and reluctantly agreed: "Okay..."

After entering the wooden house, Shen Yuexi discovered that there were only two beds inside, one belonged to Shen Yubai, and the other was covered with thicker hay and looked softer and more comfortable, obviously belonging to Shen Yuerong.

Only there is no place for Chen Yuexi.

Shen Yuerong, who followed later, lowered her head to hide the snicker on her face, "Brother thought you wouldn't come back, so he didn't leave a place for you. I'm sorry, sister."

Shen Yuexi looked at Shen Yubai silently and met a pair of cold eyes.

Her heart trembled, and she felt something shattering on the ground.

Shen Yuerong on the side seemed completely unaware and hesitated: "Otherwise...or I will give up my position to you."

"No need."

"……no need."

The two voices sounded almost simultaneously.

The former had a look of indifference, while the latter lowered his eyes in disappointment.

Shen Yuexi put the roast chicken he brought back on the small table next to Shen Yubai and said sternly: "Your body has not fully recovered yet. Eat more to replenish your body."

After saying that, he silently exited the wooden house.

Shen Yuerong's greediness has been aroused, and she is looking straight into the eyes.

In the end, as expected, most of the roast chicken fell into Shen Yuerong's mouth.

"My sister must have come back after eating out. She has money but she didn't take it out long ago."

"Brother, weren't you full just now? I'm so hungry. Can you share some more with me?"

Shen Yuerong deceived the remaining meat from Shen Yubai's hands with just a few words.

Outside the wooden house, Shen Yuexi shrank in the night wind and leaned against the bonfire that had not yet been extinguished, curling up to resist the cold.

The monks felt sorry for Shen Yuexi's experience, so they were furious and wanted to rush into the light curtain to expose Shen Yuerong, a greedy and selfish guy.

Shen Yuexi was tortured to the point of being skinny, but she took back good things as soon as she had them, without even thinking about whether she was starving.

Shen Yubai pursed her lips tightly and said nothing. At that time, he was enjoying the food brought back by Shen Yuexi with peace of mind, and he even thought in his heart that the roast chicken had something wrong with it.

Later, he even thought that Shen Yuexi followed others and did not learn well, and went around cheating and cheating.

The screen continues——

After dawn the next day, Shen Yuexi ran up the mountain to chop wood.

On the way, she unexpectedly met a caravan.

Shen Yuexi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Her strange reaction made the onlookers feel strange and didn't understand why she was so excited.
