Miao Dong didn’t expect Shen Ming to suddenly care about this question. She opened her eyes and didn’t know how to explain. She asked, “What did Miao Liang tell you?”

Shen Ming realized that his reaction just now was a little embarrassing. He quickly sat cross-legged and changed into a comfortable posture, his hands constantly grabbing the grass roots that emerged from the fine sand.

He pulled out a blade of grass and held it in his mouth. “Miao Liang said that you wanted to seduce my brother, but your family didn’t agree. They were worried that you would do something bad, so they sent you here. Then, he showed me your photos and asked me to ‘take care’ of you.”

Miao Dong rolled her eyes. She was speechless at her “biological brother”‘s words. “I’m just a weak little girl. What can I do?!”

Shen Ming immediately retorted, “Hey, you can’t say that. You’re not a weak little girl. You’re too good at fighting and causing trouble! I have never won against you.”

Miao Dong was amused by his behavior. “You were just asking for trouble.”

Shen Ming frowned, as if he was reflecting on himself. The grass roots in his mouth had been bitten out of shape by him.

When Miao Dong saw his worried look, which was very different from his previous mindless look, she suddenly had a different feeling about this character in the book.

Previously, she only felt that the characters in the book were just NPCs that she needed to complete the mission. When she needed them, they would appear to assist her. When she didn’t need them, they were just paper figures. They didn’t have their own matters and didn’t have their own consciousness.

They always only had a persona and had no complicated emotions and worries.

But when she saw Shen Ming like this, she suddenly realized that her thoughts were wrong.

Everyone in the book was a living person. They had their own consciousness and things they wanted to do. They didn’t want to just follow the arrangements in the original book and live their lives monotonously.

It was she, always standing outside this world like a creator, observing them from God’s point of view. It was so unfair to them.

Shen Ming was a little shy from being stared at. “Why do you keep looking at me?”

Miao Dong snapped out of her thoughts and no longer had any hostility. She asked him seriously, “What exactly do you want to ask me?”

Shen Ming was in a daze and almost forgot his main purpose for coming to Miao Dong. Then, he carefully recalled what she had said in the canteen before asking, “You said that someone from the Shen family is plotting against me behind my back. Who is it? Why is that person doing this?”

In Shen Ming’s mind, family was always the most trustworthy. No matter what his family wanted him to do, it was reasonable. What he had to do was to protect them.

However, Miao Dong’s words today shook the persistence in his heart. For a moment, he felt that things shouldn’t have developed like this. However, he couldn’t explain it. He clearly didn’t want to do something, but the feeling of being pushed by an invisible pair of hands made him feel like a marionette. He couldn’t control himself at all.

He could clearly tell that this feeling was very bad.

Miao Dong didn’t expect him to care so much about those words she said. In the original book, Shen Ming was just a brainless tool. He would do whatever his brother asked him to. In the later stages, he would be a huge help to Shen Jin in business and do some dirty jobs for him.

Miao Dong had done many extreme things to frame Miao Chu, but these things were all ruined by Shen Ming.

Shen Ming’s question was undoubtedly shaking his own persona.

Miao Dong had a bad premonition. She couldn’t explain what was wrong. Her mind was buzzing, making her head hurt. She immediately shook her head, wanting to shake off this noise.

After a while, her mind calmed down and she replied to Shen Ming, “You can use your brain to think. You’re the eldest son of the Shen family and will inherit the Shen family’s business in the future. But if your reputation is ruined, will the Shen family let you be the leader?”

Shen Ming shook his head without thinking.

The Shen family valued their reputation the most. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have sent him to Science and Technology High School the moment something happened to him.

Miao Dong continued, “Therefore, I don’t think I need to say more about who benefits the most from this matter.”

“Shen Jin?” When Shen Ming subconsciously said this name, even he couldn’t believe it. He looked at Miao Dong in shock.

Because he was unwilling to believe reality, Shen Ming suddenly became irritable and wanted to attack Miao Dong.
