After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 114: Chapter 114 He Hasn’t Forgotten Yet!

The summer vacation days flew by in a hurry.

In the blink of an eye, September arrived, and it was time for school to start.

Now Yun Shifei was already a second-year high school student.

As expected, she ended up in the last science class.

Although it was the lowest-ranked class, aside from the poorer academic atmosphere, the teachers’ instruction remained the same.

Most of the students from Class Seven previously opted for the arts stream.

Only a few, like her and Cheng Lie, chose science.

Thinking of this, Yun Shifei couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy for Cheng Lie.

He should’ve picked arts; his drawings were quite good. If he applied to an art school, it would likely be easier for him.

Unfortunately, Cheng Guomin made the decision for him and chose science.

She woke up early, put on her school uniform, slung her backpack over her shoulder, and headed to school.

Just as she was about to leave, Yun Sisi suddenly called out to her: "Sis."

Yun Shifei turned back to glance at her.

"You..." Yun Sisi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn’t get the words out.

With Yun Shifei’s current beauty, there was no place for Yun Sisi to stand at school anymore.

Yun Sisi used to be the school flower, but now, it seemed her title was going to be taken away. noveldrama

When Yun Shifei appeared at the school gate, she immediately attracted the attention of the students.

The boys were visibly excited, while the girls secretly sized her up.

No matter how good a school was, the uncontrollable hormones of adolescence still stirred restlessly.

They were all young boys and girls at the age of budding emotions—who wouldn’t admire such striking beauty?

Yun Shifei could feel people staring at her.

She wasn’t sure what all those gazes held in their depths.

She could only tell that some were kind, while others carried malice.

It was just like her past life, when she later became beautiful.

She never thought being good-looking mattered much. Particularly for her, her tragic fate in her past life hadn’t changed.

Destiny had always been unfair to her—things she wanted to hold onto slipped away; the people she wanted to love didn’t love her back.

So, she would never take beauty as a point of pride.

Only by working hard and possessing strength could she truly live well.

When Yun Shifei entered the classroom, she unexpectedly saw Song Yang sitting inside.

She had assumed Song Yang would choose the arts stream.

She gave him a glance, then picked a seat in the classroom to sit down.

Who would’ve thought that Song Yang’s aimless gaze would instantly be drawn to Yun Shifei?

He was originally still drowsy, but now he was wide awake.

Suddenly, he stood up and walked toward Yun Shifei.

"Hey, beauty, have we met somewhere before?"

He carefully scrutinized Yun Shifei’s face.

Tsk, this fair skin, these bright features, and those luscious, rosy lips.

Beautiful! Absolutely breathtaking!

She was the kind of stunning that left a lasting impression.

But her gaze was so crystal clear, reflecting his figure within.

Innocent and adorable, making him feel an unresistible urge to tease her.

Yun Shifei was startled by Song Yang.

She didn’t expect him to be so clingy.

Why was it that, even after she chose science, she still ran into him?

And now he was pestering her again.

Feeling deeply troubled, she shrank back a little.

"You don’t recognize me?" she asked.

This familiar voice and tone stunned Song Yang for two seconds before he couldn’t help but let out a shocked scream: "It’s you! Ugly freak!"

After shouting, Song Yang felt something was off—no, the current Yun Shifei wasn’t ugly anymore. In fact, she looked quite beautiful. He couldn’t call her an ugly freak anymore.

It was just unbelievable to him. How, in just two months, had she transformed so much?

She was now even prettier than Yun Sisi...

The moment this thought emerged, Song Yang shivered instinctively.

No way! He couldn’t think like this. Thinking like this meant he was betraying Sisi.

His heart only belonged to Yun Sisi, no matter how beautiful Yun Shifei became—it wouldn’t change anything.

Despite his resolve, he still couldn’t help but sit next to Yun Shifei.

"Ugly freak, since we’re so destined to be in the same class, I’ll reluctantly be your deskmate."

"Who wants to sit with you?" Yun Shifei said, grabbing her bag to change seats.

But Song Yang grabbed her by the arm: "Don’t push your luck, okay? I’m agreeing to sit with you—that’s me giving you face."

Yun Shifei glared at him upon hearing this.

No matter how angry a girl’s glare was, it came with no real threat.

Instead, it felt as though something was tickling his heart, itching unbearably.

It made him want to bully her even more.

Cheng Lie had just entered the classroom door when he saw Yun Shifei arguing with Song Yang.

His face remained expressionless as he turned and walked to the office.

"Song Yang, don’t push people too hard. Didn’t your parents beating you scare you enough before?"

Hah—

Song Yang couldn’t help but suck in a breath.

He hadn’t expected Yun Shifei to still remember that incident.

After the summer break, he himself had almost forgotten how harshly his parents had beaten him back then. Yet Yun Shifei still remembered.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "So what? Getting beaten up a few more times doesn’t bother me."

Song Yang was acting as if he didn’t care, and Yun Shifei was anxious.

"If Sisi sees, she’ll be sad."

There she went mentioning Yun Sisi again.

"Don’t worry, she won’t see it now." Song Yang raised his eyebrows, clearly not planning to let Yun Shifei off.

Seriously, seeing such a delicate-looking girl just made him want to bully her.

"Song Yang, get up. This is Cheng Lie’s seat," a somewhat stern voice suddenly rang out.

Song Yang turned to see a female teacher walking over, her face serious as she stared at him.

Behind her was Cheng Lie.

Sight unseen for just one summer, Cheng Lie seemed to have grown taller, though his quiet and aloof demeanor remained the same.

"Why is that, teacher? Isn’t this first-come, first-served?"

"Cheng Lie’s health isn’t very good. He’s familiar with Shifei, so having the two sit together will make it easier to look after him."

With the homeroom teacher saying so, even if Song Yang wasn’t happy, he didn’t dare object.

Before coming to school today, his dad had explicitly warned him not to cause trouble at school. Otherwise, he wouldn’t let him continue studying and would send him straight back home.

But if he went home, he might never see Yun Sisi again.

So he had to act well-behaved at school.

Thinking it through, he stood up and gave the seat to Cheng Lie.

Once Song Yang left, Yun Shifei let out a sigh of relief and looked at Cheng Lie. "Cheng Lie, good morning!"

When Song Yang turned back, he caught sight of Yun Shifei smiling warmly at Cheng Lie.

The girl’s smile was so sweet, so lovely, and her gaze was entirely tender—completely different from when she faced him.

Song Yang felt slightly irritable.

Why could she be friends with that idiot, and even smile at him so brightly?

Song Yang couldn’t make sense of it.

Cheng Lie, in turn, gazed deeply at Yun Shifei and pulled out a few candies from his bag to hand to her.

Seeing this, Yun Shifei’s smile grew even wider.

He hadn’t forgotten!
