After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Thank Her for Not Giving Up on Him

The more Yun Sisi thought about it, the more horrifying it all seemed.

She felt a chill spread across her body, as if she were watching a horror movie.

She stared at Cheng Lie, her bare and unrestrained gaze seeming like it could devour him. She was so shocked

that she completely forgot to mask the look in her eyes.

Yun Shifei noticed how Yun Sisi was staring at Cheng Lie and couldn't help but step forward to stand in front of

him. She said, "Sisi, Cheng Lie didn’t do it on purpose."

"Not on purpose? He absolutely did it on purpose. This time, and the last ttoo—when he tried to frme

for being with Song Yang—it had to be his doing!"

With new grievances added to old ones, the hatred Yun Sisi felt made her teeth ache.

This idiot—she had clearly underestimated him.

He might not even be truly stupid. How could a real fool react so quickly? Just as she was about to pour the milk

tea onto Yun Shifei, he had suddenly grabbed her hand.

Yun Sisi was both frightened and enraged.

Even though Cheng Lie’s father spoiled him, he was just an illegitimate child! Cheng Huai hated him too, and yet

he dared to bully her?

When the tcame, she planned to talk to Cheng Huai and see how he would help her get even!

Yun Shifei looked at Yun Sisi, seeing the malice in her eyes. She suddenly smiled, saying, "Sisi, how could you say

such a thing? You know he has autism, don’t you? Aren’t you always so kind and generous? Cheng Lie didn’t

mean to spill milk tea on you. Why not forgive him?"

Yun Shifei spoke lightly, deliberately turning her own approach back on Yun Sisi.

Yun Sisi always loved pretending to be pitiful and maintaining that sweet, kind, and generous persona.

This time, Yun Shifei planned to let her act to her heart’s content.

Yun Sisi froze for a moment. What Yun Shifei said was true—she was supposed to be kind and generous.

But the burn she had suffered was so severe—how could she possibly forgive Cheng Lie so easily?

Not to mention, this little fool had humiliated her like that before, making her so furious she had wanted to

strangle him.

Could this little idiot be pretending all along?

Yun Sisi wanted to take another look at Cheng Lie, but Yun Shifei was shielding him, leaving her unable to see

him.

So frustrating! So infuriating!

Yun Sisi felt worse the more she thought about it. If it weren't for Mu Chengzhu being nearby, she would've

already lost her temper.

But since Mu Chengzhu was there, Yun Sisi had no choice but to say tearfully, "Sister, you're right. Even though

Cheng Lie hurt me, since it wasn’t intentional, | should forgive him."

It wasn't intentional.

She deliberately emphasized this phrase heavily.

She felt as though she had been placed on a pedestal. Clearly, this was Cheng Lie’s fault, so why did Yun Shifei

think she had to forgive him?

But she had no choice for now, and besides, she'd spotted an opportunity she could seize.

Yun Sisi turned to look at Mu Chengzhu. "Brother Mu, my hand really hurts. Could you go withto the hospital

to have it checked?"

Mu Chengzhu’s heart was reluctant.

But he didn’t want to stay any longer in this tense setting.

He replied, "Alright."

After speaking, he glanced at Yun Shifei. He really was helping her out in this situation.

But Yun Shifei didn’t seem to realize it. She appeared to breathe a sigh of relief as she watched them prepare to

leave.

She even said to Yun Sisi, "Letknow about the medical expenses later—I'll cover them for you."

"No need," Yun Sisi replied. She wasn’t short on money for something like that.

Is that it? Mu Chengzhu'’s gaze lingered on Yun Shifei’s face. She seemed completely oblivious to the fact that he

was helping her right now.

Once Mu Chengzhu and Yun Sisi left, Yun Shifei turned to look at Cheng Lie.

Cheng Lie saw the girl calmly staring at him. He pressed his lips together, wondering—was she about to scold

him?

She probably wasn’t aware of what Yun Sisi had just planned to do to her, right?

It’s better if she doesn’t know.

Keeping her pure and oblivious to the ugliness of human nature—it’s best if she never encounters it.

But in the next moment, he felt the girl’s hand grab his.

Yun Shifei held onto his hand and examined his fingers.

"You got burned too—does it hurt?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Lie looked up at Yun Shifei.

At that moment, Yun Shifei was intently examining his fingers, holding his hand in her palm and gently

massaging it. She even blew a few breaths onto his fingers.

"Next time, don’t do things like this. | could've dodged earlier. You hurt her, and hurt yourself too. It’s not worth

it."

She spoke softly as she continued blowing onto his fingers. The light, faint streams of air brushed against his

fingers, soothing the pain.

But it also caused a faint tickle that burrowed into his heart, making his fingers itch.

Unable to resist, he pulled his hand away from hers.

Yun Shifei didn’t notice Cheng Lie’s reaction.

She reached out and patted his hair.

"But still, thank you for protecting me."

At this moment, the boy remained seated while the girl leaned in slightly to meet his gaze at eye level.

Her eyes curved into crescent moons, brightly sparkling, more beautiful than crystal glass displayed in a shop

window.

Cheng Lie’s dark eyes were as deep as the sea. His face remained cold and emotionless.

But the tips of his ears quietly turned red, and his heart beat furiously inside his chest.

He wanted to say thank you—to thank her for not giving up on him.

Like a beam of light, she lit up his dark and shadowed world.

At the hospital.

Mu Chengzhu stayed with Yun Sisi as her burn wound was treated again.

Throughout, Mu Chengzhu stood quietly by her side, letting Yun Sisi handle everything herself.

Yun Sisi felt deeply disappointed.

On the way back, she couldn't hold back the question she’d been wanting to ask for so long. "Brother Mu, why

have you started to dislike me?"

She truly couldn't understand. She

"Sisi, you're overthinking it." Mu Chengzhu didn’t want to delve into the topic.

How was he supposed to explain?

Was it because he had discovered Yun Sisi’s true nature?

In his earlier ignorance, he saw Yun Sisi as someone wonderful.

But later, clouded by his newfound clarity due to Yun Shifei’s words, he began to notice Yun Sisi’s every action

seemed overly contrived.

She tried so hard to fake an image of kindness and gentleness, yet her inherent spite remained impossible to

disguise.

Just now, he had seen it with his own eyes.

Mu Chengzhu was giving the sindifferent response.

Take what just happened, for example: Yun Shifei had been so mean to her, yet Mu Chengzhu remained silent

instead of standing up for her.

"So, you've really fallen for Yun Shifei?!" Yun Sisi blurted out, shocked, even dropping the term "sister" and

calling Yun Shifei by name.

"No," Mu Chengzhu instinctively denied it.

Yet, Yun Shifei’s figure surfaced in his mind.

Was this love?

Or was it simply the fact that she had changed so much from before, drawing his attention without him realizing?

Seeing Mu Chengzhu lost in thought, Yun Sisi immediately knew what it meant.

He did like her!

Tears streamed from Yun Sisi’s eyes uncontrollably. "I knew it. | knew that once Yun Shifei cback, she'd take

everything from me! | just knew it."

After saying this, Yun Sisi quickly walked away.

She understood now. This was her fate—to end up with nothing at all.
