You are all bad women! Don't come over!-Chapter 172 - 166 You’re Seeing Things
Shen Mochen was stunned for a moment before he cocked his head, blinked his innocent eyes, and asked, "Sister Cai, what are you talking about?"
Cai Yuncui, seeing Shen Mochen’s puzzled look, was also startled and began to doubt herself, her momentum slightly faltering.
"I saw it all!" Cai Yuncui said.
"Saw what?" Shen Mochen asked.
"I saw you kissing a girl!" Cai Yuncui said again.
"No way, when did that happen?" Shen Mochen pressed.
With eyes wide open, Cai Yuncui scrutinized Shen Mochen’s face. His confused expression only added to her bewilderment.
"But I obviously saw..."
"What, Sister Cai, could you have seen it wrong?" Shen Mochen chuckled, pointing to his own eye socket. "Because you’re short-sighted."
Cai Yuncui pushed her glasses up her nose. Shen Mochen seemed so candid that she began to truly question herself, "No, I can see clearly with my glasses..."
"Then your prescription must’ve gotten stronger, right? When I came back, I indeed ran into a girl from class. She said she was heading my way and offered me a ride, but why would we kiss? Oh, I get it now. There was a gust of wind just before, and I got sand in my eye, so she was just helping me blow it out. That’s probably what you saw wrong!"
As he spoke, Shen Mochen took off Cai Yuncui’s glasses, cleaned them, and then put them back on her with both hands, "Next time, I’ll accompany you to get a new pair of glasses. Maybe your short-sightedness has worsened."
"No way!" Cai Yuncui waved her spoon.
She thought to herself that since Shen Mochen put it that way, she must have seen it wrong. How embarrassing, making such a big blunder.
"I’m gonna cook now, the food will be ready in a jiffy!" Cai Yuncui, failing to accuse Shen Mochen, scurried back to the kitchen.
Shen Mochen heaved a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he had always been good at acting, deceiving Cai Yuncui, this little fool, was a piece of cake for him.
"Sister Cai, why would you be upset to see me kissing another girl? Are you jealous?" Shen Mochen pursued his advantage, following her into the kitchen with a teasing smile.
Upon hearing this, Cai Yuncui, who was pouring salt, jolted, and a mountain of salt tumbled into the pot.
"Yikes!" Cai Yuncui cried out, frantically trying to scoop the salt back out with the spatula in a whirlwind of chaos.
After finally removing the excess salt, Cai Yuncui glared at Shen Mochen with flushed cheeks, "What are you doing sneaking up on me like that!"
Phew, she found an excuse. I was startled by Shen Mochen suddenly talking to me, not by what he said!
"Why do you get angry seeing me kiss another girl?"

"I’m not angry at all!"
Cai Yuncui immediately turned her face away, pretending to stir the vegetables, only to realize she had forgotten to turn on the stove and bent down to light it.
"You’re clearly angry. You’re jealous, aren’t you?"
"How could that be? I’m not jealous... I just think... you’re a student, it’s not good to start dating so early..."
Cai Yuncui mumbled, scraping the bottom of the barrel for excuses.
"I’m not a student anymore, plus I’m 18 years old. By law, I can even get married!"
"I, I just think... it’s not good that you’re dating again right after breaking up."
Shen Mochen laughed, teasingly said, "After all is said and done, you just don’t want me to date other girls!"
Panicking again, Cai Yuncui almost swung the spatula into Shen Mochen’s face, "No, no, that’s not what I mean..."
What should I do, what should I do, will he think that I like him, harboring ill intentions toward him? So, is he jealous... Cai Yuncui felt like crying inside, wouldn’t that make me a bad woman?
Shen Mochen felt it was about time and placed his hands on Cai Yuncui’s shoulders, saying seriously, "Don’t worry, your brother won’t be easily taken away by another woman!"
"Ah... yes, yes, little Mochen, sister believes you!" Cai Yuncui finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded like a pecking chicken, desperately emphasizing their sibling relationship.
Right, right, I just feel that it would be lonely if my brother was taken away so quickly, because he’s my brother! Cai Yuncui finally found herself a nice excuse.
"Little Mochen, your sister doesn’t mind you dating, I just think that dating is a matter to be taken seriously, and you shouldn’t just casually be with someone!" Cai Yuncui said with a flushed face but very seriously.
"Mhm, I know." Shen Mochen said.
...
After they had dinner, Cai Yuncui went to sleep on the couch at Shen Mochen’s house.
"Did Catherine come to see you today?" Cai Yuncui asked.
"Yes, she brought flowers for Yin Caiyu... It seems to be a custom of their Tianzheng Church."
Shen Mochen suddenly remembered, Catherine didn’t seem to be a follower of the Tianzheng Church, even though she always wore the cross her grandfather had given her.
"She’s really kind, Catherine is such a good kid..." Cai Yuncui lay in the dark living room, looking at the faint light on the balcony, "The person you beat up so badly the other day, she took care of it for you."
"Mhm, I thanked her." Shen Mochen lay in his bedroom with the lights off, even darker than the living room.
He wasn’t playing with his cell phone either, just blankly staring at the ceiling.
"I heard about the student you beat up; he always bullied you at school, right? But I just think that even so, you shouldn’t have hurt him that badly, you mustn’t be so impulsive in the future, especially in Buque, don’t easily have conflicts with your teammates, do you hear me?" Cai Yuncui gently instructed.
"Mhm." Shen Mochen responded half-heartedly.
"Tomorrow you’ll find out which team you’ll be in... Maybe you’ll be in team 0819... Mhm, but maybe not that coincidentally, other teams are short of people too... But but, it would be great if you really ended up in team 0819!" Cai Yuncui said with a bit of anticipation.
"Mhm, yeah." Shen Mochen replied mechanically, he actually hadn’t taken in anything Cai Yuncui had said.
A brief silence, so quiet that one could hear the breathing from another room.
"Little Mochen, are you really okay?" Cai Yuncui suddenly asked.
Shen Mochen laughed, "What are you talking about, I’m fine."
"I just always feel like you’re forcing yourself," Cai Yuncui said softly.
Shen Mochen was slightly taken aback and instinctively retorted, "No, I’m not forcing myself."
"Then it’s just my overthinking... Hehe, I always feel that you put on a smile to prevent others from worrying... If you really don’t feel well, don’t force yourself, just tell me, I will always be with you, I won’t leave you." Enjoy more content from novelbuddy
Shen Mochen was at a loss for words for a moment, feeling an inexplicable sense of defeat inside.
He had just said he was a good actor, yet even Cai Yuncui wasn’t fooled. Shen Mochen slowly closed his eyes, lifting his arm to shield them.
He had indeed been in a daze these past few days, not knowing what he wanted to do, only being pushed along by the tide by Cai Yuncui and Catherine.
Although possessing a superpower seemed to give him a glimmer of hope, he knew very well how difficult it was to bring about a resurrection.
His original life plans were simple: get the highest amount of scholarship, get into Yupi’s best university, then buy a house with Yin Caiyu, work hard to pay the mortgage, have two kids, and grow old together.
But Yin Caiyu was dead, so naturally, the original plan could no longer be realized, and there was an emptiness in his heart.
