After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 69: Chapter 69 Overacting

As he was thinking, a small cake was placed in front of him.

"I know you've had dinner, but try a piece, it’s quite delicious," Yun Shifei said with a bright smile.

Actually, she was being greedy; she wanted to try every kind of cake but couldn't fit so much in her stomach, so

she shared a piece with Cheng Lie.

Cheng Lie quietly looked at the cake placed in front of him.

A small piece of fruit cake, decorated with mango on the cream, looked extremely appetizing.

He picked up a fork and started eating it slowly.

Yun Shifei watched him for a while and then mumbled, "Auntie said you didn’t like sweets before."

It seems Zhao Haishuang lied to her.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Lie paused slightly, holding the fork.

Indeed.

At first, he couldn't tolerate sweetness at all, feeling that such sweetness didn’t fit into his world.

But now, he wasn’t sure when it started, he gradually accepted sweets.

The creamy taste mixed with the flavor of mango, sweet but not cloying.

Yet, no matter how delicious the cake was, Cheng Lie could only take a few bites before it bectoo much for

him.

He looked up, watching the girl in front of him savor the cake delightfully, unaware of the white cream on the

corner of her mouth, like a greedy cat.

She really likes sweets.

On the way back, Yun Shifei patted her belly and glanced at Cheng Lie, "Thank you for eating withtoday."

Cheng Lie remained silent.

But Yun Shifei knew he was listening.

At this moment, Mu Chengzhu’s birthday party was probably still going on, and there were very few people in the

neighborhood.

She suddenly recalled the scene when she first met Cheng Lie after her rebirth.

Back then, she also walked Cheng Lie home, but she never would have imagined that she would have such a

deep connection with Cheng Lie in the future.

She glanced at Cheng Lie, whose youthful eyes were distant as he stared straight ahead.

She smiled softly, "Cheng Lie, you know, I'm particularly happy today because | resolved something."

For sreason, she suddenly wanted to confide in someone; there were so many things pent up inside her for

so long, and nowhere to share them.

And Cheng Lie was definitely a good listener.

Cheng Lie turned to look at her.

Yun Shifei smiled; she knew he was listening.

"They've always been spreading rumors that | like Mu Chengzhu, and even Mu Chengzhu thought I liked him.

Today, | finally told everyone in front of them that | don’t like Mu Chengzhu at all."

Recalling the scene, Yun Shifei felt a bit relieved in hindsight, and her tone sounded much lighter.

"What a pity Mu Chengzhu wasn’t there at the time; otherwise, | would really want to see his expression. | don’t

know why he’s so narcissistic, thinking all girls must like him. Although he is good-looking..." She paused and

suddenly stopped in her tracks, looking at Cheng Lie.

Cheng Lie also stopped.

They happened to be standing under a streetlamp, their shadows interwoven and stretched out long.

The girl tilted her head up, her smile delicate, "But he’s far from being as good-looking as you."

With that, Yun Shifei continued walking.

She meant that Mu Chengzhu was much less handscompared to Cheng Lie.

If Cheng Lie weren't ill, the girls chasing after him might line up from Class 1 to Class 7.

But this comparison made Cheng Lie pause; he couldn't help but feel his ears getting warm.

No girl had ever praised him like this before.

Yun Shifei walked Cheng Lie to his home, and just as Cheng Lie was about to enter, Yun Shifei suddenly

remembered something and asked, "Cheng Lie, what does it mean every tyou givecandy? Are you

trying to tellyou don’t want to be friends withanymore?"

Cheng Lie looked at her with a puzzled expression and then shook his head.

It seemed she had overthought it, Yun Shifei scrunched her nose.

"Then could you stop being so harsh within the future?" Every tCheng Lie got angry, it scared her.

She was already a timid person, and he was so fierce.

Cheng Lie pressed his lips together and after a moment said, "I won't."

Since he had decided to be friends with her, he would no longer treat her that way.

Yun Shifei breathed a sigh of relief, and all the grievances suffered at the Mu Family disappeared.

Tonight was a good start.

Cheng Lie was willing to be her friend.

The rumors with Mu Chengzhu had also been cleared up.

However, as Yun Shifei walked on, she suddenly thought of something.

She realized that Cheng Lie was actually responding to her. Isn’t he autistic?

She scratched her head, not quite understanding; maybe this was what mild autism was like.

The party continued until 11 p.m. before dispersing.

Mu Chengzhu said goodbye to his friends one by one.

Yun Sisi was the last to leave.

She handed her prepared gift personally to Mu Chengzhu.

"Brother Mu, this is a birthday gift for you, happy birthday." She smiled gently and shyly, like a flower bud about

to bloom.

Previously, Mu Jiayu tried to collect the gifts, but that was just to embarrass Yun Shifei. After all, she refused to

hand over the gift.

Her gift, however, had to be personally given to Mu Chengzhu, to truly show her sincerity.

That way, Mu Chengzhu would be even more touched and like her even more.

"Thank you, Sisi." Mu Chengzhu reached out and took the gift.

"Letwalk you home."

"No need, our houses are not far apart."

"It's too late, I'm worried about your safety if you go back alone."

Actually, it wasn’t impossible for a household servant to escort her, but Mu Chengzhu insisted on taking her

hhimself.

Yun Sisi’s heart was already blooming with joy.

But she still tried to maintain a demure expression, walking beside Mu Chengzhu.

The two of them slowly walked towards the Yun Family.

Yun Shifei clearing things up like that wasn’t what Yun Sisi expected.

What she said was so earnest that even she started to believe it.

Thinking back on Yun Shifei’s behavior during this period, Yun Sisi felt that Yun Shifei truly no longer liked Mu

She wanted everyone to dislike her, to exclude her.

Hearing Yun Sisi mention Yun Shifei, Mu Chengzhu’s expression immediately turned a bit cold.

No matter how slow he was, he understood that Yun Shifei didn’t like him.

She no longer liked him.

Whether it was because the transition from liking to not liking happened too quickly made it a bit hard for him to

accept.

Suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Mu Chengzhu said, "I won't be mad at her, it's good that she doesn't like

me."

How can you not be mad!

Yun Sisi was a bit anxious, "Brother

Yun Sisi’s words made Mu Chengzhu pause.

He didn’t expect her to say something like that.

Wasn't she always the one who would speak on Yun Shifei’s behalf? Why wasn’t she defending Yun Shifei now?

Mu Chengzhu knitted his brows and looked at her with sconfusion.

Yun Sisi’s heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, she overdid it with her acting; could Mu Chengzhu have noticed something?
