After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King-Chapter 92 The First Time Seeing Her So Happy

On the weekend, Yun Shifei really took Old Mrs. Xu to that dessert shop to eat.

The two sweet tooth enthusiasts thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

"I’ve decided, from now on I’ll come here once a month. The cakes here are just so delicious," Old Mrs. Xu said with heartfelt admiration as she ate.

Yun Shifei squinted her eyes with satisfaction, licking her ice cream spoon like a little cat, before turning her head and sternly stopping the old woman: "Grandma, you can’t eat too much sweet stuff. You should stop eating these now."

"I know, I know, just one more slice," Old Mrs. Xu reached out and moved the piece of chocolate cake in front of her closer.

Yun Shifei felt a bit helpless.

When it came to eating, she never expected Old Mrs. Xu to be even more childlike than her.

Afterward, Yun Shifei packed up a few slices of cake and a cup of lemon tea, deciding to bring them to Cheng Lie.

Originally, she was supposed to have tutoring today, but since she wanted to spend time with Old Mrs. Xu, this week’s tutoring sessions were all canceled.

Yun Shifei pressed the doorbell at the Cheng Family’s house. Zhao Haishuang opened the door, and upon seeing Yun Shifei, she smiled warmly: "Shi Fei, you’re here?"

"I came to see Cheng Lie."

"Welcome, welcome," Zhao Haishuang said as she invited Yun Shifei in. "Xiao Lie is upstairs in his room reading."

Yun Shifei took out the treats she had prepared for the Cheng Family and placed them on the table: "Auntie, the egg tarts and lemon tea from this shop are really good. You should try them."

"Shi Fei, you’re so thoughtful," Zhao Haishuang said happily as she accepted them.

Yun Shifei thought that Zhao Haishuang looked even more stunning when she smiled.

There was something peculiar about Zhao Haishuang that Yun Shifei found curious—she always wore heavy makeup at home.

This kind of makeup couldn’t possibly take less than an hour to apply.

The first time Yun Shifei saw her with such makeup, she thought Zhao Haishuang was about to go out.

But after seeing her a few times, it turned out Zhao Haishuang didn’t leave the house.

Still, this oddity only lingered in Yun Shifei’s mind for a moment before quickly fading away.

She ran upstairs to find Cheng Lie.

Following Zhao Haishuang’s directions, Cheng Lie’s room was at the very end, the last room.

She walked to the door, politely knocked, and called out, "Cheng Lie."

At that moment, Cheng Lie was reading a book about psychology.

Hearing the sound, he immediately closed the book and tucked it under the bed.

After putting the book away, Cheng Lie’s expression turned puzzled—Yun Shifei?

Why had she come directly to his room to find him?

Cheng Lie opened the door and saw the girl standing outside.

Today, she was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with a cat printed on it and long denim pants.

It seemed this was her favorite type of outfit.

Her shoulder-length hair was tied up in a small ponytail at the back of her head due to the heat.

It revealed her slender neck and delicate, pointed face.

"I brought you something to eat," Yun Shifei said, holding up the food in her hand.

Cheng Lie reached out and took it.

Yun Shifei continued looking at him with wide eyes.

She thought to herself, is Cheng Lie going to just block the doorway like this and not invite her into his room?

Seeing Yun Shifei’s expression, Cheng Lie suddenly felt a surge of annoyance.

Did she really not understand the difference between males and females? How could she casually enter a guy’s room?

Did she act this way elsewhere too? Since the Yun Family and the Mu Family were old friends, had she also entered Mu Chengzhu’s room?

Yun Shifei, however, found nothing odd about it. If she knew what Cheng Lie was thinking, she’d surely find it absurd.

After thinking for a bit, Cheng Lie decided he was overthinking it. Eventually, he stepped aside to let Yun Shifei into his room.

Yun Shifei couldn’t control her curiosity and began observing the room. She couldn’t help but marvel—so this is the room of a big shot?

She could only describe it with two words: clean and tidy.

The room had very few items, and even the bookshelf only contained two or three books.

The desk had almost nothing on it.

The bed was impeccably made.

The room seemed to lack any sense of life, like a model room.

Yun Shifei found herself admiring Cheng Lie.

Even when her room had fewer items, she couldn’t keep it as neat as Cheng Lie’s.

There were always things strewn about, and the room would inevitably end up messy.

Cheng Lie’s floor even had a rug, perfect for sitting on.

Yun Shifei laid out a piece of unused newspaper on the floor and began unpacking all the food she had brought.

In addition to the cake, she had bought some snacks like fried chicken wings and drumsticks.

She opened all the food and laid it out, covering a sizable portion of the floor.

"Let’s eat," she said.

She handed the lemon tea to Cheng Lie.

Quietly, Cheng Lie accepted it and began sipping through the straw.

For some reason, Yun Shifei felt a distinct sense of joy in feeding someone.

She even laid out the knife and fork in front of Cheng Lie.

"I’ve tried all of these—these are the best ones. You should eat more. The more you eat, the healthier and more robust you’ll be. That way, no one will dare to bully you," she said enthusiastically.

As she spoke, she herself ate quite a bit.

Even though she and Old Mrs. Xu had already enjoyed a lot earlier, she had digested it all by now.

Watching Yun Shifei eat so earnestly, Cheng Lie started losing his appetite.

Did she really like chubby people?

Cheng Lie couldn’t help but think of Song Yang.

Did she like him?

On such a hot day, Cheng Lie inexplicably felt a chill.

Completely unaware that Cheng Lie had misunderstood her, Yun Shifei continued eating while complaining about things at home: "You wouldn’t believe it, since Grandma came to my home, my mom has been so nice to me. Yun Sisi doesn’t even dare to mess with me anymore."

Just thinking about how every time Yun Sisi tried to target her, she would get retaliated against by Old Mrs. Xu made Yun Shifei find it hilarious.

This grandmother of hers had always stood by her, in both this life and her past one.

She also noticed how similar she was to Old Mrs. Xu in many ways.

They both loved sweets, had somewhat stubborn personalities, and couldn’t help but criticize pretentiousness when they saw it.

The difference was that Old Mrs. Xu voiced her thoughts openly, while Yun Shifei only complained privately to Cheng Lie.

Yun Shifei shared all the stories and happenings at home with Cheng Lie.

Cheng Lie sat across from her, gazing at her attentively.

The teenager’s clear eyes shimmered like a lake, capable of reflecting anyone’s image.

At this moment, the reflection in his eyes was Yun Shifei. She seemed to be glowing, her smile vibrant and genuine.

It was perhaps the first time he had seen her so happy—a carefree smile free from any worries, which even made him feel more at ease.

Yun Shifei thought that Cheng Lie was, indeed, the best listener in the world. You could openly share everything with him without worrying he’d spread any of it.

To Yun Shifei, she was simply looking for someone to listen. Whether he truly paid attention or not didn’t matter—she just needed someone to accompany her and hear her out.

After venting, Yun Shifei felt lighter.

She bit into a piece of muffin: "Anyway, what’s most important right now is to study hard. Cheng Lie, let’s study hard and get into a good university together!"
