A Trap

Si Yu lifted her head and looked at her coldly. "I didn't know that a spectator like you has the time to worry about the affairs of others. Where did you get the dignity to say that you're honored?"

"That's still better than overestimating your own abilities and asking to be humiliated!" The female classmate glared at her hatefully. She had really underestimated her in the past. She did not know that she was so eloquent. "Some people really are headstrong. Is having the principal's support so great?"

Si Yu raised her eyebrows and chuckled. She looked as if she wanted to strangle someone to death. "I'm sorry, but you're still amazing."

"You!"

The female student wanted to say something, but she was stopped by the class monitor, who had rushed over to stop the fight. "Alright, stop talking. Class is about to start. What would it look like if the lecturer saw you guys quarreling?"

The female student stomped her feet in anger. Her face flushed red, and her eyes widened. She snorted coldly at Si Yu and turned her head back to her seat angrily.

Si Yu couldn't be bothered with her. She lowered his head and opened her bag to check the supplements inside.

After school, Si Yu first sent Kun You a text message, telling him that she had something on and would be home a little later.

Kun You replied with a crying emoji upon receiving the message.

Looking at his cute reply and the bright word "Hubby" in the chat box, Si Yu suddenly felt a sweet sensation in her heart.

Before she could savor the sweetness, an annoying figure suddenly blocked her way.

Si Yu narrowed her eyes. In a flat and emotionless tone, she asked, "What's the matter, Chu Yuan?"

"There's one thing." Chu Yuan walked up to her and said with a dignified smile, "I'm missing a role in the drama group I'm a part of. I need your help. Do you have time?"

Si Yu smiled and nodded without hesitation. "Sure. I'm interested in acting in a play."

"That's good." Chu Yuan clapped her hands and passed the script to her. "Familiarize yourself with it first. We'll rehearse at the theater tomorrow."

Si Yu still nodded. "Alright."

Chu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief. It really went beyond her expectations that she would agree so readily, but it wasn't a bad thing either that she could waste less of her breath.

At that thought, Chu Yuan turned around and left smugly.

Just wait and see, Si Yu. I'll make sure you won't get to participate in the calligraphy competition!

Si Yu was well aware of Chu Yuan's little schemes, and after experiencing the schemes in her previous life, she was naturally confident that she could resolve the trap she had set.

The reason she still agreed to act in the play was so she could respond to changes easier by staying the same. If she refused this time, Chu Yuan would definitely not let it go. If she came up with some insidious plan, it would be impossible to guard against.

This woman had very vicious and profound thoughts and had to be dealt with carefully.

Si Yu knew what she was doing, so she didn't take the matter to heart.

She turned around and got into the elevator. When she reached the top floor, the elevator door opened, and she saw the office with the door open.

Si Yu knocked on the door and walked in. Shen Zhi lifted his head from the pile of documents when he heard the sound. When he saw that it was Si Yu, the sternness on his face faded a little, replaced with gentleness. "Miss Si, you're here. Have a seat."

"Grandpa Shen, I'm here to give you some hand-brewed tonics." She placed the medicine bag in her hand neatly on the desk and instructed Shen Zhi under his surprised gaze, "You need to take this medicine twice a day, one bag each time. Let me know when you're done, and I'll prescribe more for you."

"You even know how to do this?" Shen Zhi picked up the medicine bag in shock and sniffed it. The strong smell of Chinese medicine spread through her nose, and she didn't quite believe it.

"Grandpa Shen, if you don't trust me, you can just throw it away." Si Yu waved her hand nonchalantly. "I'll take my leave first! I'll be waiting for your news!"

"This girl..." After she left, Shen Zhi shook his head. In the end, he couldn't bear to throw away the bags of medicine.

This was the medicine that old Si's beloved granddaughter had personally concocted for him. Even if he didn't take it, it was enough to make old Si envious. He had to show it off to old Si.

Si Yu came out of the school and saw a familiar black car parked at the entrance.

Her heart was filled with joy, and a faint smile naturally hung on her face.

She opened the car door and got in. "I only said that I'd be home a little later, and you came to the school gate to wait for me? Aren't you afraid that I won't be in school?"

Kun You looked at her gently and pulled her into his arms. "I've always been here and never left."

Si Yu was stunned for a moment. "You're here to pick me up? Not busy today?"

"I'm busy, but..." Kun You pressed his forehead against hers, his eyes full of affection and intoxication. "I miss you so much. Lunch was delicious. Thank you, my dear wife."
