After Being Transported into a Book, I Adopted the Villain-Chapter 40 - Hostility
Chapter 40 - Hostility
Ch.40 – Hostility
The acid went to Yi Heng’s head in an instant.
He suddenly recalled every little bit of his relationship with his parents, and then his mood became even worse.
If only he wasn’t “Yi Heng”...
At the same time, his eyes turned to Tang Li’s quiet sleeping face. At that moment, he had such a strong desire to switch places with Tang Li.
In fact, as early as the death of Tang Li’s, Yi Heng knew of the existence that was “Tang Li”.
At that time, he had some sympathy for Tang Li, thinking that he had found someone similar to himself.
Unexpectedly...
Yi Heng raised his mouth with self-mockery.
It was he who deluded himself. Tang Li and he were not in the same class at all. At least Tang Li had better luck than him.
Yi Heng slowly retrieved his wandering eyes from Tang Li’s face, meditated for a while, and then looked at Shen Yu.

From his point of view, he could see the side of Shen Yu’s face clearly. Shen Yu is beautiful, warm and pure. His temperament is like a polished and round jade, which makes people want to approach.
Even after he fell asleep, Shen Yu’s face was tranquil, his eyebrows relaxed, and his lips slightly hooked up.
Completely different from his violent mother and cowardly father.
Strangely enough, Yi Heng somewhat remembered that Shen Yu was not so approachable before. He followed his father and stepmother to many social dinners attended by Shen Yu. The Shen Yu at those times was so fierce that he could scold his assistant and make him cry with three words.
It’s strange.
It only took a year or two to see a person’s character change so dramatically.
Yi Heng was completely absorbed in his thoughts when he suddenly felt his arm get hit hard.
Turning his head, he looked up at a pair of dark eyes.
Tang Li, who had been sleeping soundly, had woken up at some point. His whole body huddled in the blanket. His hair was somewhat messy, and he was watching Yi Heng with his beautiful phoenix eyes.
Yi Heng quickly turned his gaze away, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Before long, Tang Li bumped his elbow into his arm again and said in a low voice, “What were you looking at just now?”
Yi Heng took back his arm from the armrest of the chair and was too lazy to open his eyes. “Nothing,” he said coldly.
“I’m warning you now–” Tang Li’s voice was sharp, almost like it was stabbing into Yi Heng’s ears, “Don’t have any thoughts about him.”

Yi Heng sneered and was forced to open his eyes.
The next second, he saw that Tang Li’s face was only a short distance away from him. The two of them were so close that if Tang Li blinked his eyes, the thick long eyelashes could almost sweep across Yi Heng face.
Although Tang Li kept his expression blank, Yi Heng could sense nervousness and fear rolling of the younger boy.
Suddenly, Yi Heng seemed to understand something, he raised one eyebrow and showed a smiling expression: “You can rest assured, my parents are not dead, and I was not left to such kind relatives as you. Even if your brother Shen Yu wants to take me in, he has no reason to.”
In the face of Yi Heng’s verbal provocation, Tang Li did not become as angry as Yi Heng had expected, but instead stared at him blankly.
Yi Heng did not evade his gaze and looked at Tang Li with a smile on his face.
After a long time, Tang Li slowly sat back and turned away from Yi Heng.
The silent war was soon over.
However, Yi Heng understood that Tang Li had not abandoned the issue, but he just didn’t want to quarrel in front of Shen Yu. Moreover, Shen Yu was still asleep and was easy to wake up.
Yi Heng looked at Shen Yu with interest and closed his mouth.

After landing, some of the competition staff were already waiting outside the airport.
Yi Heng picked up his suitcase with the rest of the group and then habitually walked at the back of the crowd.
But this time, instead of always burying his head as he before, he looked at Shen Yu and Tang Li from time to time.

Although Shen Yu, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was always surrounded by the housekeeper and the vice principal, his attention never truly diverted from Tang Li, and he would turn to look at Tang Li every other moment. f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂
Later, Shen Yu seemed to have noticed that the vice principal had unwittingly squeezed Tang Li to the back and Shen Yu simply reached out to directly hold the boy’s hand.
Yi Heng looked at the two interlinking hands without expression. It took a long time for his eyes to move down.
Just by looking at him, no one could tell what he was thinking.
—————-
The group of people, led by the competition staff, went to the hotel where they were booked to stay and then gave them some details about the competition. The English contest lasted for two days. They were to gather in the library at 10 o’clock both mornings. Of course, the organizers arranged for vehicles to pick up the group, but meals needed to be solved by themselves.
After the details were given, the staff members left.
After a busy afternoon, everyone was very tired. The vice principal proposed to find a restaurant near the hotel. After dinner, they would go back to their respective rooms to rest.
After that, the Deputy principal turned to Shen Yu with a smile: “Mr. Shen should join us. Since we have come together, it is more convenient to act at the same time.”
Shen Yu has limitations and can’t do anything without a wheelchair. No matter what he does, he will slow the others down. So naturally he would feel too embarrassed to accept the vice principal’s suggestion and refused with a smile: “Go ahead, we will order takeout in the hotel.”
The vice principal felt somewhat unwilling and wanted to persuade him again, but he also didn’t want to inconvenience Shen Yu and ultimately had to give up.
So the vice principal ordered the teachers and students to return to their rooms and put their suitcases away. They would gather in the hotel lobby in half an hour.

The teachers and students responded immediately.
At that moment, Yi Heng, who had been standing at the edge of the crowd, raised his hand and said coldly, “Vice principal, I will not go either.”
As a student, the vice principal didn’t treat Yi Heng with such a good temper as he did Shen Yu. He immediately scolded, “We are acting collectively this time. You must go with us. Besides, young people who should eat dinner.”
“I’m not hungry.” Yi Heng was not in the least bit frightened by the vice principal’s loud voice, and his handsome eyes were as calm as a lake without ripples.
The vice principal insisted, “Even if you’re not hungry, you have to go.”
“I really don’t want to go...” Yi Heng’s voice gradually sank.
Just as everyone thought he was persuaded by the vice principal, Yi Heng suddenly turned his head and looked at Shen Yu with wrinkled eyebrows and a pitiful look in his eyes.
He said, “Uncle Shen, can I stay with you for takeout in the hotel?”
Suddenly, Shen Yu, who was prepared to leave, became the focus of attention. He was shocked that the little male lead spoke to him.
Shen Yu didn’t mind Yi Heng joining them to eat, and even wanted to become more friendly with the boy – after all, it’s better to have one more friend than one more enemy.
Unfortunately, Shen Yu had not yet nodded his head and agreed when he heard Tang Li’s chilly reply: “No.” ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦
Yi Heng was stunned for two seconds. His eyes moved to Tang Li and his expression slowly became mischievous.
For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
When the vice principal saw the situation was not right, he rushed out to play peacemaker. First, he had the other teachers and students disperse. Then he pointed to Yi Heng and said, “Just where do you want to eat?! You are not familiar with Mr. Shen’s group. Go upstairs and wait half an hour before joining us for diner.”

“Who said we’re not familiar?” Yi Heng asked in reply.
The vice principal was stunned.
He saw Yi Heng turn his head to look at Shen Yu, and then burst out in a flower-like smile. “Uncle Shen, we even had dinner at the same table not long ago, but the vice principal said we were not familiar with each other.”
Vice principal: “...”
Shen Yu sighed and said to the vice principal, “Vice principal, Little Heng is my friend’s child. He’ll eat with us later, so you won’t have to worry about it.”
The vice principal showed a frightened expression and was quiet for a while before nodding silently.
When the vice principal left, Yi Heng dropped the fake smile on his face and quickly recovered his previous expressionless face. He looked at Shen Yu, then pulled up his suitcase and went to the elevator entrance.
Shen Yu: “...”
What the fuck...
How can this child change his face faster than a leaf turning in the wind?
Shen Yu was very depressed. He took the last elevator with Uncle Zhang and Tang Li upstairs. By the time they reached their floor and walked out of the elevator, the others who stayed on the same floor had already disappeared into their rooms.
Even Yi Heng, who was right in front of them, had already entered his room.
The organizers arranged for a standard room, that is to say, two people share a room. Since it is still early, Tang Li can stay in Shen Yu’s room until after dinner and then he’d have to go back.
But Shen Yu still told Tang Li to put his suitcase back into his own room first, so as to save time when moving around.
Tang Li’s room is three rooms away from Shen Yu’s big bedroom. When the three people move towards Tang Li’s assigned room, the person inside opens the door.
It was Yi Heng.
He was to share a room with Tang Li.
Shen Yu sighed to himself, this damn fate.
Yi Heng seemed to have anticipated the group. After seeing them, his expression didn’t show any hint of surprised, he only moved to give Tang Li room to go in.
When Shen Yu saw Tang Li standing still, he said, “Chestnut, put your suitcase away and we’ll wait for you outside.”
Hearing Shen Yu’s words, Tang Li’s rigid figure relaxed a little bit. He looked back at Shen Yu before turning to stare at Yi Heng with gloomy eyes from an angle that Shen Yu could not see.
Yi Heng smiled indifferently and made a perfunctory gesture: “Do you want me to say please come in?”
Tang Li tightened his lips and dragged his suitcase into the room without saying a word.
The wheels of the suitcase slid across the wooden floor, the sound was particularly loud in the tense atmosphere.
