After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Do You Like Him?

Yun Shifei felt too embarrassed to ask if he didn’t like the gift she had given him.

Since the gift had already been given, how he decided to handle it was his own business and no longer had

anything to do with her.

But it was her fault too. In hindsight, she should have asked Cheng Lie what he liked and then gifted him

something accordingly.

Instead of assuming things and giving him a gift without asking.

Yun Shifei didn’t blCheng Lie for not liking her gift; she blamed herself for not choosing the right one.

She understood perfectly well that giving someone a gift they didn’t like was no different from not giving a gift at

all.

Still, she found it odd—how could Cheng Lie leave his hands exposed during this freezing winter? Wasn't he cold?

Yun Shifei definitely felt cold.

Even though it was cold, she still had to walk her dog every day after school.

Her beloved dog was growing bigger each day, needing more and more exercise, but she barely had tfor it

during school hours.

She always waited until after school to take her dog around the neighborhood for a stroll.

Today was no exception.

When Yun Shifei returned home, she grabbed the leash and took her dog out for a walk around the

neighborhood.

Her dog was overly enthusiastic around people, wagging its tail and excitedly approaching anyone it saw.

This was something Yun Shifei found particularly troublesbecause she herself had social anxiety!

Watching her dog paw at a stranger and refusing to leave, Yun Shifei felt completely at a loss.

That's why she always tried to choose places with fewer people when walking her dog.

For example, a small hill behind their neighborhood.

There, she walked back and forth with her dog a few times.

Only when her dog had thoroughly exhausted itself, running around like crazy, did she slowly bring it home.

Who would have thought? This path, usually devoid of people, unexpectedly led to an encounter with Mu

Chengzhu today.

Mu Chengzhu hadn’t done well in the recent exam. Even though the teacher had said he simply didn’t perform to

his best ability, he still felt upset.

After all, he was in his final year of high school, and every single second mattered—there was no room for

wasting time.

So, after school, instead of heading himmediately, he wandered over to this spot to sit and contemplate

what he should do moving forward.

Who knew he’d end up bumping into Yun Shifei?

Yun Shifei intended to pretend she hadn't seen Mu Chengzhu and walk past him, but her dog was a people-lover

and couldn't resist rushing toward the unfamiliar figure of Mu Chengzhu.

Yun Shifei quickly tightened the leash.

But as her dog grew, its strength was increasing, and Yun Shifei had to exert so much effort to hold it back.

Mu Chengzhu witnessed the scene of an overexcited dog wagging its tail at him, with a girl behind it desperately

pulling on the leash.

For sreason, this moment unexpectedly lifted the gloomy mood he'd been carrying all day.

He stood up and moved toward Yun Shifei and her dog.

The dog, seeing him approach, wagged its tail excitedly and panted with its tongue hanging out.

And as he got closer, the dog even jumped up on him, clinging enthusiastically to his leg.

Its enthusiasm was overwhelming.

Yun Shifei felt utterly helpless. When she first bought the dog, why hadn't she considered this quirk of golden

retrievers? Even if a thief cinto her house, it would probably wag its tail in welcome!

Mu Chengzhu crouched down to pet the dog’s head, smiling as he did: "What a lively little pup."

Yun Shifei felt her scalp tingling with discomfort. Her mind agonized over the fact that her dog had been touched

by Mu Chengzhu—now it wasn’t clean anymore; would she still want it?

Mu Chengzhu looked up at Yun Shifei: "Shi Fei, when did you get this dog? It’s pretty cute."

Yun Shifei nodded but didn’t respond.

It was clear that she was being quite cold toward him now.

But Mu Chengzhu pretended not to notice and continued playing with the dog.

Yun Shifei grew impatient waiting and couldn’t help but tug on the leash: "Con, let’s go, pup."

"Shi Fei, do you dislikethat much?" Mu Chengzhu asked with a wry smile.

He knew perfectly well that she didn’t like him, but he still couldn’t resist asking.

He wanted to understand—why? Why had her feelings for him shifted from affection to dislike?

At his words, Yun Shifei glanced at Mu Chengzhu.

In the dim evening light, the boy’s face was little more than a silhouette, but even that was enough to reveal his

handscharm.

Once upon a time, she liked him—but why she liked him, she couldn’t quite remember.

But now, she truly didn’t like him anymore.

She lowered her eyes: "There's no rhor reason to this kind of thing. Not liking someone is just not liking

them, that’s all."

She finally admitted that she didn’t like him.

Surprisingly, Mu Chengzhu didn’t feel upset. Instead, he saw it as progress.

At least she wasn’t constantly avoiding him like she had before.

"Do you like Cheng Lie then?"

Mu Chengzhu remembered the last the went to the Yun Family to find Yun Shifei, and he saw Cheng Lie

coming down from upstairs.

Their relationship seemed much deeper than he'd imagined.

"Don’t be ridiculous. | don’t like anyone," Yun Shifei replied, finding Mu Chengzhu increasingly odd for asking

such strange questions.

She pulled the leash and left, walking so quickly it seemed like something was chasing her.

She followed the road, her figure shrinking under the streetlights before gradually disappearing.

Mu Chengzhu remained standing where he was for a long time, eventually laughing to himself.

What was wrong with him? Why had he started to care so much about Yun Shifei?

Even if Yun Shifei didn’t like him, there was no reason for him to fall for her, right?

This whole situation was utterly baffling.

When Yun Shifei returned home, she scolded her dog once more, warning it not to go running up to people

anymore.

Especially people like Mu Chengzhu.

If walking the dog meant inadvertently having repeated encounters with him, wouldn't that be a terrifying

prospect?

But the very thing Yun Shifei feared still ended up happening.

The next day, when she went to walk her dog, she ran into Mu Chengzhu again at the sspot.

This time, Mu Chengzhu had brought a bag of dog food to feed her dog.

A handful of treats easily won her dog over, and it happily licked Mu Chengzhu'’s hand.

Yun Shifei was exasperated: "Mu Chengzhu, can you please stop feeding it like that?"

She called him by his full nand finally initiated a conversation with him.

Mu Chengzhu chuckled: "I just really like dogs."

"You like..." my foot.

She swallowed the last two words, deciding not to say them out loud.

In her previous life, she had never heard of Mu Chengzhu being a dog lover.

The neighborhood was big enough; surely they wouldn't keep bumping into each other every time.

This time, she didn’t see Mu Chengzhu.

Happily, she finished walking her dog and returned home.

Unbeknownst to her, Mu Chengzhu was standing at the old spot, waiting for her.

Tticked by—minute by minute, second by second. Night had already fallen, and the cold wind whistled

through the air.

Mu Chengzhu glanced at his watch.

It was past six. Normally, Yun Shifei would have left by now. Today, she wasn’t going to show up, was she?
