Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 151 Okay, take me home.

Shi Sui was in a daze.

It felt like she was back in junior high school. Her adoptive father had died, and her adoptive mother and two older brothers posed no threat to her. She was carefree and went around doing "righteous deeds." When she was hungry, she would go to Aunt Chen's house for a free meal.

However, there is one person in Aunt Chen's family who is very unwell.

Chen Xun forced her to study and insisted that she take the entrance exam for a local high school.

But there's nothing wrong with reading; reading allows you to leave and find—

The light and shadow shifted rapidly.

She found herself in a completely different room, with a huge crystal chandelier, tiles polished to a mirror finish, luxurious sofas... clean, elegant, and opulent.

There were four more people in front of her, who said they were her biological father, biological mother, and her biological brother and sister.

They were all enjoying themselves, which made her feel out of place.

Family? Has she finally found her family?

Suddenly, the scene became clearer and clearer, and Shi Sui could see the faces of the four people clearly: stern, indifferent, disgusted, and sarcastic.

Shi Sui gripped something tightly, closed her eyes, and shouted, "I don't want to go home!"

Pei Shuoxun endured the pain of his hair being pulled wildly, looked down at the person in his arms, and then looked up at the door just a few steps away.

She turned around and coaxed softly, "Okay, okay, let's not go home yet."

Hearing the familiar voice again, Shi Sui slowly opened her eyes, leaned against him and sniffed. Her sense of smell was a little dull, and she couldn't smell anything. She could only look at him with her eyes half open.

"Are you awake?" Pei Shuoxun asked.

Shi Sui gave a mumbled "hmm".

"Who am I?" Pei Shuoxun asked again.

Shi Sui opened her eyes wide, leaned closer to look, and suddenly smiled: "Chen Xun."

Pei Shuoxun's heartbeat suddenly became erratic, pausing briefly before pounding wildly, an overwhelming, frantic throbbing.

Shi Sui had never spoken to him in such a sweet voice before.

He looked into her eyes and couldn't help but ask again, "Who am I?"

"Chen Xun." Shi Sui raised her voice, then leaned closer to his ear, afraid he hadn't heard her clearly.

His breath brushed against her ear, a faint ticklish sensation, and he unconsciously hugged her tighter, trying to suppress the heat in his heart.

But they held on even tighter; how could they possibly restrain themselves?

Pei Shuoxun carried her around the neighborhood. It was a damp winter night, and there weren't many people strolling around. The quiet streetlights cast long shadows.

As he passed the children's play area, he suddenly heard the person in his arms say, "I have no home."

The voice sounded aggrieved.

Pei Shuoxun glanced to the side and saw adults playing with children at the slide in the playground. This was the only lively place in the community.

Shi Sui was staring at them intently.

Realizing that Pei Shuoxun had discovered her, she quickly turned her head away, snorted, and said quickly, "I don't want a home."

Pei Shuoxun looked at her.

The girl's fair cheeks flushed red, her hair fell loosely on both sides, and her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of misty fog. She was completely without her usual vigilance and was as docile as a kitten.

He was on tenterhooks as he left the restaurant in a taxi, fearing that Shi Sui might suddenly trigger a random challenge.

She gets drunk with just a little alcohol; this was the most docile and harmless she'd ever been when she was drunk.

She wouldn't be so energetic as to run around the city, nor would she be so righteous as to drag him to find thugs to beat up, nor would she go so crazy as to beat him up as if he were her adoptive father... She would just obediently be held in his arms, well-behaved, and without resistance.

His Adam's apple bobbed, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Sui Sui, shall we go home?"

Shi Sui paused for a moment, as if disgusted by the nickname 'Sui Sui,' frowned, and then mercifully said, "Okay, take me home."
