Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 335 She's started taking sleeping pills again.

Lin Shi's eyes also welled up with tears: "If it weren't for my parents watching over me 24 hours a day—"

He let out a breath.

“Shen Yanci, Qin Zhao really suffered too much in the past.” He looked at him, his carefree demeanor gone. “It’s already amazing that she can live a normal life. She can’t give you the kind of love you want.”

“She made an appointment with a psychologist a couple of days ago and had some tests done.” Lin Shi looked at him. “She’s been quite stable for the past two years, it must be because of you.”

Shen Yanci's eyes were red and swollen, her heart aching beyond measure.

What exactly did he do?
"This is the first time she's asked the psychologist to keep it a secret from us since she opened up access. So you're not entirely wrong for beating me up." Lin Shi took a sip of his drink. "You must have done something."

“I disapproved of your relationship from the very beginning. Over the years, not only has she been undergoing treatment, but everyone in our family has had to receive training. What right do you have to think you know how to take care of her better than anyone else in our family!”

The more Lin Shi spoke, the angrier he became.

“Therapy originally included intimate relationships, but the therapist suggested that people with psychological backgrounds should avoid developing them. My parents also just wanted her to be okay. So this aspect was never included.”

"In fact, whether or not this is included will not affect her normal life. Having it would actually affect her!"

“It was my sister who pursued you, so we're in the wrong. Go back to England and never come back. No one will blame you.” Lin Shi said, “Your relationship wasn’t very deep anyway, so it’s better for you to separate now.”

Shen Yanci's voice was hoarse: "How do you know it's not deep?"

"Even if you like her, she can't give you the kind of love you want. You can tolerate it now, but how long can you tolerate it?" Lin Shi raised his voice, "Are you going to drag her into the abyss and then force her to her death?"

Shen Yanci's memory flashed back to her actions of dodging and enduring.
-
"Shen Yanci, could you kiss me a little slower?"
-
"I like you."

It's not that she dislikes it, but that she's resisting the physical response.

What is he doing?
He was like someone who had suddenly lost his way, unable to find his landing point.

Lin Shi softened his tone: "You're not an irrational person, think it over carefully. Continuing like this won't be good for anyone."

As if wanting to feel the pain more intensely, Shen Yanci's voice became terribly hoarse: "Did she have a very bad time during those two years?"

Lin Shi pursed his lips: "It's not good."

She had a severe reaction to the medication; she couldn't eat anything, even though her favorite dish was plum and pork ribs. After taking the medicine, the smell made her want to vomit.

At her thinnest, she weighed only around 80 pounds. Lin Shi turned her head, her voice slightly breathy. "But she's 1.73 meters tall."

Shen Yanci covered his face with his hands, his shoulders trembling.

"She's started taking sleeping pills again recently," Lin Shi said, taking a sip of his drink.

"If you could have a good relationship with her, things wouldn't be like this. You can't take good care of her."

“I’ve said before that if she really falls in love, there’s no fairness to speak of, and you have to go along with her! You can’t do that.”

Lin Shi let out a sigh of relief.

"It's not too far off now."

"Since she was the one who pursued you this time, consider it a lesson she learned. I won't cause you any trouble. Now that you know about her situation, stay as far away from her as possible!"

Lin Shi put down the wine glass, which made a dull thud as it hit the glass.

"You can't take this responsibility."

"Qin Zhao cannot be bullied, not by anyone. I won't let you get away with this! My parents won't let you get away with this either!"

He glanced at Shen Yanci, whose eyes were red, and said, "You wouldn't make a mistake like this."

He pulled his baseball cap down further and glanced at him: "You should apply ice to the injury on your face yourself."

"gone."

He didn't intend to have a long talk with him or comfort him; after saying that, he left.

The door to the private room opened and closed, the room was dimly lit by blue light, and soothing music drowned out the noise.

He sat on the sofa, downed a glass of wine, and as he drank, his shoulders began to tremble.

He tried his best to control himself, gulping down the wine, then gripping the glass, his shoulders trembling more violently.

After a while, Kuang Xu pushed open the door and came in: "Lin Shi left already? He told me to come in later. What did you two talk about?"

"Is Qin Zhao still going to America?"

He asked, glancing at the empty wine bottles on the table, and started nagging again: "Why did you drink so much again? Did you drink the same wine as Lin Shi?"

Shen Yanci covered his face with his hands, took a breath, and said in a hoarse voice, "She is not going to America."

"Then why aren't you happy?" Kuang Xu asked, puzzled.

Shen Yanci felt a surge of heat rising within him again. He took a breath and said, "Thanks for today."

As he finished speaking and passed by, he patted his shoulder and walked away like a zombie.

Kuang Xu watched his retreating figure and clicked his tongue in confusion: "Is he crying tears of joy?"

He shook his head: "These people in love are wasting alcohol."

"..."

It was already late at night outside the window.

Shen Yanci lay half-reclined on the back seat of the car, as if he had no soul.

The driver glanced at him through the rearview mirror and asked, "Are you going back to the Rose Garden or..."

He stared at a meaningless dot: "Just drive it anywhere."

The car drove through the night and finally stopped at a certain spot.

The driver reminded them, "We've arrived at Lanting Bay."

Looking at the familiar building, Shen Yanci seemed to wake from a dream, and raised his eyes slightly: "How did I get here?"

"Didn't you say to go to Lanting Bay?" The driver repeated his words.

Shen Yanci closed his eyelids briefly, hummed in response, and got out of the car, his body slightly unsteady.

The driver helped him out of the car and, seeing his condition, asked, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing." Shen Yanci's voice was hoarse and flat, as if it had been sanded. "Wait for me here."

He walked to the entrance of the residential compound and was stopped by the security guard.

Shen Yanci: "I have registered."

The security guard checked and politely said, "Excuse me, sir, would you please call the homeowner again to confirm?"

It's already past ten o'clock.

Shen Yanci touched his pocket, then stopped. He hadn't quite figured out what he was thinking anyway, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm not going in. I'll stay here for a while."

He looked very unwell; the wounds on his face were still fresh.

The security guard started to imagine what was going on. He remembered seeing him drive a luxury car before. Now, looking at him like this, combined with the information that he had been removed from the list...

He's a fake tycoon.

Did they make a mistake and get dumped by the homeowner?

Being good-looking can't put food on the table; character is what matters most – integrity.

The security guard remarked with a sigh, "Go home early; there's no going back in life."

His words, by a twist of fate, struck Shen Yanci with unexpected pain, like a hammer blow.

The moon hangs high in the sky.

While he was hating the moon, she was taking medication and undergoing treatment.

Lin Shi only said a few words, but she spent two years of that time.

A hint of tears welled up in his eyes.

He always felt that those two and a half years were too hard.
