I Just Want to Spoil and Run Away with the Abused Female Lead [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 47.1

Shen Yishu quietly held the girl in her arms, a slight curve forming at the corner of her lips. “It’s worth it. Xiao Rao and the others aren’t worth it, but you are.”

At the very least, during the years she had been in charge of the Shen family, they hadn’t been able to lay a hand on Shi Xingrao, who had a better chance of inheriting the family than they did. Though she had missed out on much time with Shi Xingrao, seeing her grow up safely under her watch made it all seem worthwhile.

Shi Xingrao tilted her head, her expression both innocent and guileless. “But I don’t think they’re worth it, Auntie.”

If, in the original storyline, every member of the Shen family had blood on their hands because of Shen Yishu, she would have chosen to stain her own hands with their blood first if she were in Shen Yishu’s place.

The girl’s expression carried a kind of innocent cruelty. Shen Yishu understood what Shi Xingrao meant and knew that her obsessive thoughts were for her sake. Yet, she didn’t want Shi Xingrao to do anything extreme.

A little rose, both mad and obsessive.

Shen Yishu had always known that Shi Xingrao wasn’t as gentle and kind as she appeared. Those who described Miss Shi as obedient and soft were the most mistaken in their perception of her.

Before, she had only thought Shi Xingrao was a bit spoiled and mischievous. Now, she realized Shi Xingrao was far more unhinged than she had imagined.

Shen Yishu lowered her gaze, a pang of guilt suddenly washing over her. She should have spent more time with Shi Xingrao when she was younger, given her more attention. Perhaps then Shi Xingrao would have truly become the obedient and gentle Miss Shi that others spoke of.

In the end, Shi Xingrao’s obsession stemmed from her own failure to raise her properly.

“I’m sorry, Xiao Rao.”

Shi Xingrao: “?”

Shi Xingrao tilted her head in confusion. “Shen Yishu, what are you apologizing for?”

“I just feel like I didn’t spend enough time with you when you were little, didn’t give you enough love.” Shen Yishu gently stroked the girl’s hair. “If I had put in more effort, you might not have been exposed to so much filth now.”

Shi Xingrao’s breath hitched slightly, and she stayed quietly nestled in Shen Yishu’s embrace.

But,

Shen Yishu, this isn’t your fault.

Only those who love you would wonder if they failed in raising you properly,

rather than blaming you for being inherently wicked.

Shen Yishu’s love was so tangible and sincere.

She felt as though she was beginning to understand love more and more.

“Don’t worry, they will all pay the price they deserve. Xiao Rao, I will handle this.”

Shi Xingrao tightened her arms around Shen Yishu. “Alright, I believe you will handle it, Auntie.”

Shi Xingrao: “Duoduo, find out what drug they used on Shen Yishu in the original storyline.”

Cat Ears trembled slightly, sensing that Shi Xingrao’s intentions were far from simple. “Sis Rao, you should still consider Shen Yishu’s feelings. Maybe we can leave everything to the law. If the law fails to deliver justice, then.”

“Then it wouldn’t be too late for us to resort to extreme measures.”

After saying this, Cat Ears felt utterly defeated. It was over it was no longer the virtuous system it once was. Now, it was even starting to think along the same lines as Shi Xingrao about how to deal with people.

It was done for.

Shi Xingrao lazily lifted her eyelids. “I’m not planning to use any extreme methods. I’m just getting familiar with their tactics beforehand, in case the events from the original plot happen again.”

Her words left no room for rebuttal. Cat Ears quickly delivered the items to Shi Xingrao. After examining them for a while, Shi Xingrao remarked, “These are just hallucinogens. So, they made Shen Yishu take large doses of hallucinogens until she believed she was mentally unstable.”

Later, whenever Shen Yishu experienced hallucinations in public and “went crazy,” they could easily use it as an excuse to remove her from her position.

Shi Xingrao spoke slowly, “Duoduo, using this hallucinogen once won’t cause any serious issues. It won’t have a significant impact on a person.”

Cat Ears: “.”

Shi Xingrao’s tone clearly implied she still intended to use it.

Shi Xingrao: “Don’t worry, I won’t give it to them.”

Cat Ears: “?”

It couldn’t figure out what Shi Xingrao was planning. If she wasn’t going to use it herself, then who would?

On their way home from the civil affairs bureau, Shen Yishu tried to restrain herself from constantly looking at the newly acquired marriage certificate. But after several attempts, she realized she couldn’t help it all felt surreal.

It even seemed as though Shi Xingrao’s first and second rejections were just yesterday. The unreality of it made the intervening time feel like it had flown by in an instant.

A faint smile touched Shen Yishu’s eyes as she gazed tenderly at the marriage certificate. Shi Xingrao, watching her, thought how dazzlingly beautiful Shen Yishu looked in that moment.

Truly, she was a sucker for good looks. But who could resist such a stunning beauty? Especially someone like Shen Yishu, with her cool elegance and striking beauty it was exactly Shi Xingrao’s type.

Shi Xingrao asked, “Shen Yishu, will we have a wedding?”

Shen Yishu replied, “Of course we will.”

Shi Xingrao suggested, “How about we get engaged first? Just a small engagement with only the Shen family present, only notifying close relatives.”

This request pulled Shen Yishu slightly out of the joy of having just registered their marriage. Knowing Shi Xingrao held grudges and realizing that her sudden request likely had ulterior motives beyond just an engagement, Shen Yishu grew thoughtful.

Shi Xingrao blinked, cupping her face as she looked at Shen Yishu. “Shen Yishu, my dear aunt, you wouldn’t lie to me, would you? You said you’d listen to me after we got married.”

“You can’t go back on your word.”

The young girl’s coquettish tone made Shen Yishu sigh helplessly. She kissed Shi Xingrao’s hair and said, “Of course, we can. But even if you plan to do something, don’t dirty your hands. They’re not worth it. Understand?”

No sooner had Shen Yishu agreed than Shi Xingrao leaned in and kissed her cheek. “I knew you’d be the best. I’m not foolish, why would I dirty my own hands? I’m just giving them a taste of their own medicine. They should face the consequences of their own actions, shouldn’t they?”

Shi Xingrao couldn’t help but think that Shen Yishu hadn’t lied to her. It seemed Shen Yishu truly would follow her lead without question. Hugging her, Shi Xingrao’s mind buzzed with lively thoughts. After a moment, she leaned close to Shen Yishu’s ear and whispered, “Then tonight, CEO Shen, you’ll be the pillow princess.”

Shi Xingrao eagerly reached out to undo the buttons on Shen Yishu’s clothes, but as soon as she had unfastened two, Shen Yishu grabbed her hands, lifted them above her head, and pinned her down beneath her. “You can have the latter half of the night.”

Shi Xingrao: “?”

Only when her hands were restrained again did Shi Xingrao glare at Shen Yishu indignantly. “What happened to doing as I say? You promised you’d never go west if I told you to go east! Shen Yishu, you deceived me into marriage you played with my feelings.”

Shen Yishu chuckled softly and pressed a kiss to Shi Xingrao’s lips. “I said I wouldn’t go west if you told me to go east, but I never said I couldn’t go north or south.”

“Xiao Rao, it’s not that I deceived you were just too careless.”

“Being this careless when reviewing contracts can lead to trouble. Auntie is just teaching you a lesson so you won’t fall into such traps in the future.”

Shi Xingrao: “…”

Who needed Shen Yishu to teach her anything? Shen Yishu was the biggest mistake she’d ever made in her life. She refused to believe she could ever make a bigger one than Shen Yishu.

The two stayed in State A for another week.

Yang Xiao seemed to be doing well during this time, no longer sending provocative messages at every turn. But today, it seemed he had grown overly confident.

【Madman: You’re not still asleep, are you? I’ve already been at work for quite a while. Oh, right you probably don’t know I’ve returned to the Shen Corporation, do you?】

Shi Xingrao thought to herself, waking up this early must mean he’s been busy cooking the books and transferring assets again.

【Madman: You have no idea the Shen Corporation isn’t what it used to be. Don’t think Shen Yishu will suddenly remember you and back you up. I suggest you give up on that fantasy. Shen Yishu holds no real power in the Shen Corporation anymore.】

【Madman: Shen Yun is the one calling the shots in the Shen family now.】

After waiting half the day without a reply from Shi Xingrao, Yang Xiao’s expression darkened with barely contained fury. Shi Xingrao was still looking down on him. In just a few days, he had acquired a house and a car, yet she still disdained him she wouldn’t even respond to his messages.

At this hour, he refused to believe Shi Xingrao was still asleep. There was no way she hadn’t seen his messages.

【Madman: Shi Xingrao, don’t say I didn’t warn you. Shen Yishu is about to fall, and you’ll be next. I’ll make sure you watch that crazy woman Shen Yishu make a fool of herself. Her fate will be yours.】

Shi Xingrao narrowed her eyes. It seemed these people still had no intention of stopping their schemes against Shen Yishu.

“Auntie, are we going back today?”

Shen Yishu was just then packing Shi Xingrao’s suitcase. “Yes, we’re leaving today. You’ll get to watch a good show isn’t that what you like? We’ll be back just in time for it.”

As she spoke, Shen Yishu folded another piece of clothing and placed it in Shi Xingrao’s suitcase. “Sweetheart, see if there’s anything else you want to bring.”

Shi Xingrao wrapped her arms around Shen Yishu from behind. “How about you go back first tomorrow, and I’ll follow a little later? Is that okay?”

Shen Yishu wasn’t keen on agreeing and was about to shake her head when Shi Xingrao kissed her cheek. “It’s just a matter of you getting home an hour or two before me. I’ll be back soon.”

“Oh, and there’s no rush to tell everyone about our relationship yet.”

Shi Xingrao was still speaking softly to Shen Yishu, who felt utterly helpless. Shi Xingrao was far too clever, using every method at her disposal to get what she wanted.

She knew exactly when to act cute and when to be gentle. Shi Xingrao never relied solely on stubbornness; instead, her calculated sweetness made it impossible for anyone to refuse her.

Shen Yishu: “Xiao Rao, if you keep insisting I don’t tell anyone about my existence, I’m really going to start thinking I’m too embarrassing to be seen with.”

Shi Xingrao couldn’t help but laugh at Shen Yishu’s words, yet she continued teasing her. “Yeah, you really are too embarrassing to bring out. President Shen, you should reflect on why you’re so un-presentable.”
