Chapter 96: The First defense I wrote Today.
Chapter 96
After Shen Wu unsuccessfully tried to kill the dog, he clearly felt that everyone in the family was avoiding him.
Except for big brother, the others didn't even want to talk to him.
Shen Wu was a little puzzled at first, but he didn't pay much attention to it for long. They were all unimportant people anyway, their attitude was irrelevant to him.
Just as big brother said, he had to start learning to live alone, he could live very well alone.
First of all, he just needed to find something he was interested in.
In order to find something like this, Shen Wu went to the study at home, intending to find some inspiration from books to see if there was anything he was interested in.
But when he got to the study, he found that someone else was already there, it was his fourth brother, Shen Jize.
Regarding this fourth brother, Shen Wu didn't know much about him, nor did he want to get to know him, so he ignored Shen Jize, whose gaze had fallen on him, and wandered around the study, searching for his nonexistent interest based on the titles of the books.
But after looking around, all the books were more or less the same, just like his current life, insipid and tasteless.
Just as Shen Wu was about to leave, his eyes suddenly caught sight of the "Human Anatomy" book on the top shelf.
Come to think of it, he only knew about a dog's structure now, but had never learned about humans.
If he knew what parts made up a human, wouldn't it be easier for him to understand what was happening to himself?
As Shen Wu thought this, he reached out to grab the book on the top shelf.
Unfortunately, he was still quite a bit short of reaching the top shelf, even when standing on a stool, he couldn't get that book.
Just as Shen Wu decided to give up, a very faint voice suddenly came from the side, still hesitant, "Which book did you want to get? I can help."
For some reason, Shen Wu heard every word Shen Jize said clearly, then he nodded.
Shen Jize continued softly, "Then you get down first, and I'll stand on the stool to help you get it."
Shen Jize was a little taller than Shen Wu, not much taller, but enough to get the book down. After getting the book, Shen Jize became serious instead, he cautiously extended his foot downwards, carefully getting off the stool until his feet touched the ground, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Wu felt that this fourth brother of his was very strange, his attitude towards him was different from others, but he didn't know exactly what was different.
When taking the book from Shen Jize's hands, Shen Wu felt like his nails had accidentally scraped something, at the same time, Shen Jize, who had been fine in front of him just now, suddenly burst into tears.
Shen Wu stayed there for a while longer until Shen Jize had completely stopped crying before leaving.
In the following week, Shen Wu finished reading that anatomy book, and ran into the fourth brother again when he went to the study room.
This time, he was crying again.
Shen Wu walked past with indifference, randomly putting down the book in his hand, then started looking for something else that might interest him.
He didn't expect Shen Jize to talk to him.
"Are you also hiding here?"
"No, I just came to find a book."
After that, Shen Wu didn't hear Shen Jize speak again until he found another book and was about to leave, then he heard Shen Jize's sighing soliloquy, "I wish I could be like you."
Be like me? Why?
Shen Wu felt that his life was not worth looking forward to.
"Why?" Shen Wu wanted to know the answer, the reason why Shen Jize wished for that.
"I think you're very strong, even when upset and in pain you don't show it, but I can't do that, I'll always cry, I can't stand it, so no one wants to get close to me."
It seemed that Shen Jize didn't need an answer either, he just muttered to himself, "If I could control myself, maybe I wouldn't be so disliked."
Only then did Shen Wu understand that it wasn't that he wasn't interested in anything, but rather that he didn't dare to be.
He became strong and wanted to live alone as big brother had told him, so he had restrained himself, restrained everything.
"I'm sorry, did I disturb you, you don't have to mind me..."
"Fourth brother."
Shen Wu cut off Shen Jize's apology, and suddenly said to him, "I saw in the book that everyone has things they are good and bad at. Since you're not good at restraining yourself, don't force it."
Shen Wu meant well, but he didn't know if it was because his tone and expression were too cold, it made Shen Jize feel like he was being sarcastic instead, and unable to hold back, cried again.
Seeing Shen Jize shedding tears, Shen Wu didn't know what to do, he could only stand there watching until Shen Jize stopped crying before leaving.Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om
