After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King-Chapter 79: Waiting Specifically for Her

Yun Sisi grew up surrounded by love and affection.

She couldn’t accept the disappearance of the love that rightfully belonged to her, especially from someone as important as Yun Tiancheng.

Although Yun Tiancheng hadn’t been as doting on her lately like he used to. He wasn’t like Xu Ya, who showered her with all her love—he also favored Yun Shifei.

People only have so much love to give. Dividing it with someone else meant there was less for her.

But Yun Sisi still didn’t want Xu Ya and Yun Tiancheng to divorce.

"Mom, please don’t divorce Dad, okay? I want both Mom and Dad," Yun Sisi pleaded coquettishly.

Xu Ya sighed softly and stroked Yun Sisi’s hair.

She didn’t want to divorce Yun Tiancheng either.

Over the years, they had weathered so many storms, and now their lives were finally peaceful and happy.

How could a divorce be decided so easily?

And Yun Tiancheng’s only request was for her to accept Yun Shifei...

She had been genuinely trying to accept her.

Xu Ya took a deep breath, recalling what Yun Tiancheng had said before.

She loved Yun Sisi because she was the daughter she had carefully nurtured—a perfect reflection of her younger self.

But Yun Shifei, who had spent the past decade outside the family, was completely clueless about everything.

She wasn’t good-looking, nor was her personality appealing.

So no matter how hard Xu Ya tried to love her, deep down, her subconscious still prioritized Yun Sisi.

Over all this time, rationality told her she shouldn’t favor either of them, and she made every effort to be fair.

But when emotions spiraled out of control, she would instinctively side with Yun Sisi.

She admitted that she wasn’t a qualified mother.

...

Yun Shifei handed the copied school rules to Li Dongliang.

Li Dongliang looked it over and said to Yun Shifei, "Shifei, the Dean of Discipline told me you don’t need to clean the toilets anymore."

Yun Shifei was surprised. "Why?"

Watching her blankly ask such a question, Li Dongliang couldn’t help but laugh. "You’re upset about not having to do chores?"

"No... It’s just so sudden."

She had prepared herself to scrub toilets for a whole week.

It wasn’t a big deal to her, as long as others didn’t prank or bully her while she was doing it.

But now, she was unexpectedly relieved of the task.

Yun Shifei was still a little happy.

Back in the classroom, Song Yang, who had been joking around with others, suddenly quieted down when he saw Yun Shifei.

He scoffed and threw Yun Shifei’s notebook back to her. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

He actually felt a little guilty inside.

Originally, he had planned to teach Yun Shifei a lesson, but upon reflection, Yun Shifei had helped him study before, and repaying kindness with hostility didn’t sit right with him.

Even though he was a troublemaker, he prided himself on being loyal.

"Ugly duckling, I won’t hold it against you for slapping Sisi because you helped me study before. But if you dare to bully Yun Sisi again, I won’t be so forgiving."

Yun Shifei gave a flat "Oh." Her tone was cold, and her expression was calm.

She didn’t display the gratitude or remorse Song Yang had been expecting, which left him a little dissatisfied as he snorted softly.

Cheng Lie’s gaze landed on Song Yang. While Song Yang might choose not to pick on Yun Shifei, Cheng Lie had no intention of letting him off.

...

Xinhua Middle School students had a two-and-a-half-hour lunch break every day.

On Monday noon, Cheng Lie went to the library.

At this hour, there were very few students inside.

He walked to the bookshelves to look for a book.

"Cheng Lie?" A voice, tinged with surprise, called out.

Cheng Lie turned around and saw Yun Sisi standing in front of him, holding a book.

Yun Sisi liked the library’s study environment and came here every noon to read.

Of course, she claimed that she liked the library’s quietness because it was better for sleeping, and Mu Jiayu always believed her.

She hadn’t expected to run into Cheng Lie today.

Truthfully, when she first saw him, she hesitated about whether to greet him or not.

She remembered what had happened last week.

She had decided to give up on Cheng Lie—the fool had humiliated her in front of everyone.

Although several days had passed, the bruises on her face were still visible, and she had to cover them with her hair.

But seeing him here today, alone, by coincidence, reignited Yun Sisi’s desire to conquer him.

She refused to believe that Cheng Lie wouldn’t like her.

"What a coincidence, running into you here," Yun Sisi said with a cheerful smile, looking at Cheng Lie.

Outside, the sunlight was perfect, and a breeze stirred her long hair, making her appear flawless and radiant.

The kind of beauty that any boy would be captivated by.

Yun Sisi was well aware of the side of herself that boys liked.

Although Cheng Lie was unique, he was a boy after all.

Yun Sisi had reflected on why she had failed in the classroom earlier.

The classroom had too many people; perhaps Cheng Lie’s social anxiety couldn’t handle it.

Cheng Lie seemed to validate her theory.

His perpetually stoic face revealed a different expression.

The corners of his lips suddenly quirked upward in a smile toward her.

In truth, he had been waiting for her.

Cheng Lie’s smile was cold, yet it struck something deep inside Yun Sisi, making her heart thud loudly.

Even though she had seen all kinds of people, she had to admit, Cheng Lie was truly handsome.

Unfortunately, he was a fool.

She still preferred boys who were good-looking and had excellent grades.

But that didn’t stop her from wanting to befriend him.

Yun Sisi grew excited because Cheng Lie’s smile made her happy, and she believed their relationship was progressing.

"Cheng Lie, what book are you reading?" Yun Sisi asked softly.

He wasn’t as cold to her as before, which meant he had accepted her.

Yun Sisi moved closer to Cheng Lie.

She leaned in, trying to sneak a peek at the book Cheng Lie was reading.

She knew her hair would brush against his hand—a soft, subtle touch that would surely make his thoughts wander.

Everything she did was carefully calculated.

But unexpectedly, as she leaned closer, Cheng Lie turned and placed the book back on the shelf.

Yun Sisi: "..."

Fine, this guy had social anxiety—it wasn’t worth overthinking.

"Want to take a walk outside?" Cheng Lie suddenly asked her.

Yun Sisi froze for a moment, then covered her mouth in surprise. He had spoken to her?

This was the first time Yun Sisi had heard Cheng Lie talk, and she felt inexplicably excited.

His voice was cold and deep—lower and more captivating than Mu Chengzhu’s.

When he acted normal, he really didn’t seem like a fool.

"Sure," Yun Sisi agreed immediately.

Cheng Lie had spoken to her and even invited her to take a walk. Yun Sisi knew she had a chance!

She would make Cheng Lie kneel at her feet.

Just like all the other boys.

She couldn’t believe she lacked charm.

Who wouldn’t like her?

The sun was blazing, its heat radiating across the earth.

At this time, few students stayed outside.

Yun Sisi followed Cheng Lie and said coyly, "It’s so hot."

But inwardly, she was already annoyed. What was this? Just dragging her out to roast in the sun? Was he crazy?

She said it to make Cheng Lie care about her.

Boys had no resistance to pretty, delicate girls.

As expected, Cheng Lie walked toward a small convenience store and asked her, "What do you want to drink?"
