After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Why Is Your Face So Red?

"Shi Fei, why is your face so red?"

Yun Shifei returned to the dormitory, took off her scarf, and Yu Liantao noticed her flushed face, looking curious.

"Maybe it’s because I just got back and used the scarf to cover my face—it’s probably just from the heat." Yun

Shifei realized that she was getting better and better at lying.

She couldn't believe how naturally a lie had slipped out, and her roommates didn’t notice anything amiss.

"By the way, have you finished Professor Chen's assignment from last time? Could you letcopy it?" Yu

Liantao asked, frowning.

They were currently in their freshman year, studying general courses and foundational computer classes, which

were relatively simple.

At least, for someone like Yun Shifei, who had prior dealings with computers, it was pretty easy.

However, in this era, computers were just beginning to emerge. Forget browsing the internet—students who

could use computers or were proficient at typing were still rare.

The current computer industry was not as booming as it would be in the future.

Many students had been admitted to this major because they hadn't been accepted into more popular fields.

Professor Chen's assignment from last twas simply to write about their visions for the future of the computer

industry.

Yun shifei found this sort of exercise effortless, but for someone like Yu Liantao—who didn’t have much interest

in technology—it was a real struggle.

"I only know that the intecan allow people to send emails to communicate with others overseas and browse

tons of resources online—but opening one webpage takes so long, it’s exhausting just waiting!" Yu Liantao

complained.

"Then you could write something like, ‘In the future, our intespeeds will be fast enough to open a webpage

instantly.” Yun Shifei offered a suggestion.

"Oh! Of course, the intespeed will definitely improve in the future!" Yu Liantao’s eyes lit up. "What else?"

Yun Shifei thought for a moment. "We'll be able to look up all sorts of information online, watch videos, and catch

up on current affairs and news."

Everything she mentioned revolved around websites; Yu Liantao nodded and scribbled it all down.

"Shi Fei, | didn’t expect you to not only study so hard but also have such deep and imaginative ideas—I couldn't

cup with this stuff myself."

Yun Shifei curved her lips into a smile but didn’t say anything.

This was one of the perks of being reborn; it might as well be her cheat code.

In truth, she often thought about how she wanted to grow stronger as quickly as possible. Being good at

academics alone wasn’t enough—it didn’t matter how well she studied; she couldn't compare to Cheng Lie’s

brilliance in such a short time.

Eventually, she would end up left behind by him anyway.

Even though she and Cheng Lie had already confirmed their relationship, she still felt a trace of inferiority being

with him.

She had to becthe kind of girl who could match him, someone who could stand on equal ground.

As she considered this, her thoughts naturally wandered to the way he had taken the initiative with that kiss—

that crisp, clean aura had forcefully invaded her senses, moving from her lips straight to her heart, leaving an

indelible mark. Thinking about it now, she could almost feel the lingering warmth on her lips.

Yun Shifei’s face flushed red again, and her heart threatened to leap out of her chest.

She hadn’t imagined that their relationship would progress so quickly after confirming it—so fast, it left her

feeling entirely unprepared.

Wasn't the natural order supposed to be holding hands first, followed by embracing, and then a kiss?

It seemed like they had skipped the earlier steps and directly reached the kissing stage.

Thinking about how they had already shared so many intimate moments in the past—like holding hands—it

seemed almost routine now.

Ugh... The more she thought, the more exaggerated things became. Back when she didn’t harbor romantic

feelings for Cheng Lie, those moments seemed perfectly normal; now, recalling them left her unbearably

embarrassed.

Yun Shifei hurriedly reined in her wandering thoughts. If she kept going like this, her roommates would surely

notice she wasn’t acting normal again.

She reached out to hold her flushed cheeks, her gaze falling on the snowman sitting on the desk. Thinking back

to how Cheng Lie had cut his hand while making it for her filled her with a pang of heartache.

She carefully brushed off the snowman and plugged it in to keep it charged, allowing it to maintain its snowman

state.

Cheng Lie truly had an astonishing talent for creating things like this.

Even if he didn’t end up working in advanced technology and chose to make romantic trinkets to delight girls,

she figured he could still make a fortune.

And besides, he was incredibly skilled at drawing...

It turned out that a genius could always find more than one path to success.

As for her... Yun Shifei thought about herself—decent at studying, but making money was a challenge.

She played the piano reasonably well, but it wasn’t to a particularly high professional standard.

Drawing was little more than an amateur hobby.

She seemed mediocre at everything—this was the gap between her and a genius.

Yun Shifei held onto the bunny-shaped hot water bottle and patted its fluffy head. The gap between her and

Cheng Lie would only grow wider, wouldn't it?

How frustrating.

Next Monday in class, Professor Chen asked the class monitor to collect everyone's assignments and hand them

over to him.

A couple of days later, during his class, Professor Chen specifically called Yun Shifei and Yu Liantao out, asking

them to stay afterward for a chat.

Yu Liantao felt anxious and asked Yun Shifei, "Shi Fei, do you think the professor found out | copied your

assignment?"

"What kind of copying is that?" Yun Shifei dismissed the notion. "It’s all just made-up ideas anyway."

She had heard that Professor Chen was also the associate dean for their year. As someone of his stature, it was

unlikely for him to trouble them.

After class, Yun Shifei and Yu Liantao walked up to the podium together.

Professor Chen, who was in his fifties, wore glasses and was tall and thin, giving off an approachable demeanor.

When he saw Yun Shifei and Yu Liantao, he looked a little surprised before saying, "Did you cup with your

ideas about the inteyourselves?"

Yun shifei nodded.

"Impressive. Out of all the students’ ideas | reviewed, yours were the most practical."

While Yun Shifei maintained a neutral

expression, inwardly, she felt a surge

Indeed, only truly intelligent people wouldn't be left behind by the times.

"Thank you, Professor," Yun Shifei and Yu Liantao said in unison.

"Shi Fei, you mentioned in your assignment that we might connect to online shopping malls in the future and buy

things online. How did you cup with that idea?" Professor Chen asked.

Professor Chen's eyes gleamed with appreciation. To extrapolate from one example and apply it to a broader

concept—very good, very good.

He then turned to Yu Liantao. "Liantao, you mentioned in your assignment that we might watch videos online in

the future and that intespeeds could improve. How did you cup with these ideas?"

"This..." Yu Liantao, already feeling guilty, suddenly froze, unsure of how to respond.

"It's just that the current intespeed is really slow—and | thought, surely it'll get faster in the future. It's

bound to be a trend."

"Is that all?"

Professor Chen seemed to think Yun Shifei’s ideas were at least well-reasoned, whereas Yu Liantao’s felt a bit

overly simplistic.
