After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Capture

In an ordinary factory, everyone is just an ordinary, insignificant cog in the machine.

No one looked at him with admiration. Every day, there was an endless amount of work to do.

Back in school and at home, he was the little tyrant.

But in the factory, if you didn’t work, you got yelled at.

Sometimes, even if he didn’t want to, he had to work overtand put in extra hours.

Compared to working, Song Yang felt that life in school was simply too joyful.

He began to miss the classmates who once treated him well.

As for Yun Shifei, his sense of guilt toward her was growing deeper and deeper.

She had helped him so much before, yet he repaid her kindness with harm. Song Yang felt that his past actions

were simply inhuman.

Because of this, when he finally managed to earn a bit of money, he decided to buy an expensive gift for Yun

Shifei to make up for his guilt.

But to his dismay, the next day, a mail carrier cto his house and delivered the gift back to him, returned in

its original packaging.

Song Yang tightly gripped that necklace and bit his lip. Yun Shifei really meant it—she said she didn’t want it, and

she didn’t want it?

This was the necklace he had painstakingly bought with his hard-earned money, just to make his apology appear

more sincere.

But she outright refused to accept his apology.

Like this, she wouldn't even consider it?

After his initial irritation subsided, Song Yang's emotions becextremely conflicted.

This showed that she hated him to the core, didn’t she?

Yun Shifei, however, hadn't let what Song Yang did bother her anymore.

She was simply that kind of person. Toward someone she disliked, if she lacked the ability to take revenge, she

chose to simply disregard them. She wouldn't waste her precious youth plotting revenge against someone.

It wasn’t easy to get a second chance at life—her twas far too valuable.

Especially now, during such a crucial period, she often tried to stretch her tas far as possible to make the

most of it.

During this time, she had been diligently studying, solving numerous problems. She found her thinking becoming

clearer and clearer.

This was truly the essence of "hard work compensates for lack of talent."

She wasn’t as naturally smart as others, and she found it challenging to study science subjects. However, her

memory was quite good. By diligently working on problems, many of them left impressions in her mind.

The next tshe encountered similar problems, she could solve them with ease.

Yun Shifei’s passionate dedication to her studies also left Yun Tiancheng deeply moved.

"Shifei, studying requires a balance between work and rest. Don’t study all day—take stto relax

occasionally."

"I will, Dad."

She did make plans to go out with Sun Xiaogi.

Yun Tiancheng patted her head. Then, as if recalling something, he asked, "How are things going with Cheng Lie

now?"

"Really well."

"That's good. And what about Chengzhu Jiayu?"

Hearing Yun Tiancheng mention Mu Chengzhu, Yun Shifei furrowed her brows. "What about him?"

"Those two have really good grades, and they're also studying science subjects, just like you. If you get along

with them, it might be beneficial to communicate more with them."

"Dad, you already know that Mu Jiayu is close with Sisi, and Mu Chengzhu is her brother."

In other words, the Mu siblings were deeply associated with Yun Sisi, making it impossible for her to develop a

good relationship with them.

"I know; | was just curious."

Yun Tiancheng recalled running into Mu Chengzhu on his way hearlier. Mu Chengzhu had asked him about

Yun Shifei’s academic progress and other matters.

Seeing how concerned Mu Chengzhu was about Yun Shifei, Yun Tiancheng had assumed their relationship might

have improved without him noticing.

Previously, he had spent most of his tbusy with work and rarely paid attention to who Yun Shifei befriended.

He had only vaguely heard that the Mu siblings didn’t get along well with Yun Shifei.

But the fact that Mu Chengzhu took the initiative to ask about Yun Shifei surprised him a bit, prompting him to

ask her about their relationship.

From Yun Shifei’s attitude, it seemed their relationship wasn’t particularly good.

That gave him sregret.

His connection with the Mu Family was very strong—stronger even than with the Cheng Family.

His relationship with Cheng Guomin was mainly due to Yun Shifei’s friendship with Cheng Lie, which led to

interactions between the two families.

Still, Yun Shifei finding her own friends was also a good thing.

Tflew by, and Yun Shifei finished her final exams.

Walking out of the exam hall, Sun Xiaoqi felt a great sense of relief.

"Shouldn't we go grab something to celebrate?" she suggested.

"We're minors. What would we drink?"

Sun Xiaoqi blinked her eyes. "Minors can drink too, you know—just as long as no one finds out."

Yun shifei still refused.

Sun Xiaoqi huffed, "You're such a goody two-shoes. You never try anything new. But | guess it makes sense—

you're so pretty, and if you got drunk and ssketchy guy took advantage of you, that'd be awful."

"I don’t even like drinking! I'd rather go eat desserts instead!"

She had been craving sweets for ages but hadn't had the tto indulge because of her studies.

After the exams, she took Cheng Lie to eat desserts.

However, as she arrived, she happened to run into Mu Chengzhu.

Yun Sisi was right beside Mu Chengzhu.

"Brother Mu, | didn’t know you liked eating cake! You've never mentioned it before," Yun Sisi said in her soft,

delicate tone.

Yun Shifei sighed quietly to herself—who would have thought she'd run into them here.

But since she was already here, she wasn’t going to leave just because she saw people she didn’t like.

Yun Shifei pretended not to see them and pulled Cheng Lie to sit at a table in a corner by the window.

But Mu Chengzhu noticed them.

He stared at Yun Shifei for a moment, then silently sat at the table next to Yun Shifei’s.

Yun shifei: "..."

At that moment, Yun Sisi also spotted Yun Shifei.

She was fuming.

Was Yun Shifei appearing here on

purpose? Did she deliberately pick a

Chengzhu—who would believe that?

Recently, Yun Sisi’s life had been particularly difficult.

Once the school’s admired "goddess," she had becalienated by others because of the rumors surrounding

Song Yang's incident and the gossip it had sparked.

Now, she had moved out with Xu Ya to live elsewhere.

When that tcame, their lives might deteriorate further.

Yun Sisi was now particularly pessimistic.

So now, her only option was to urge Xu Ya to bring her back to the Yun Family or maintain ties with Mu Chengzhu

to gain the support of the Mu Family.

Regarding the first option, Xu Ya had

told her that Yun Tiancheng wag

Thus, Yun Sisi was left with only the second option.

She didn’t know why Mu Chengzhu had distanced himself from her, but she did know that, at this moment,

holding onto him tightly was her only chance to win!
