Chapter 121: Chapter 121 MisunderstandingHearing Mu Jiayu say this, Mu Chengzhu froze for a moment, then spoke after a while: "Jia Yu, a girl’s reputation is very important. Don’t say things like this casually in the future." Upon hearing Mu Chengzhu’s words, Mu Jiayu was incredulous. Was this still her brother? How could he say something like this? In the past, whenever she mentioned Mu Chengzhu and Yun Sisi, Mu Chengzhu would always wear a silent, faintly smiling expression. From the way Mu Chengzhu interacted with Yun Sisi, it was evident that the two were mutually fond of each other. But now... Mu Jiayu was utterly perplexed. "Brother, do you not like Sisi anymore?" Like... Mu Chengzhu couldn’t help but think back to his interactions with Yun Sisi. Ever since he discovered Yun Sisi had been using him, and since seeing Yun Sisi’s true nature, he genuinely could no longer muster any affection for her. He had always hated being deceived. Especially when his heart had once been stolen by a deceiver. Thinking back on it now, it felt all the more exasperating. "Brother..." "Enough, Jia Yu. Do you think you don’t have enough homework to do right now? Go back and work on it." Mu Jiayu still wanted to say something, but Chen Min cut her off, speaking from nearby. She interrupted Mu Jiayu’s words; if the conversation continued, the siblings would surely begin arguing. Her mother’s intervention made Mu Jiayu unwilling to back down. "I never expected my brother to be like this. Is it because Yun Shifei looks pretty now that you don’t like Sisi, and have started liking Yun Shifei instead?" She was deeply disappointed—Mu Chengzhu actually turned out to be so shallow. Just like the boys at her school, who only liked pretty girls. So once they saw Yun Shifei was prettier than Yun Sisi, they all started liking Yun Shifei instead. Being good-looking doesn’t change the fact she’s useless! She’s studying in the worst class! "Mu Jiayu, what nonsense are you spouting?" Mu Chengzhu’s expression turned icy, his eyes flashing with sharpness. That glance made Mu Jiayu afraid to speak further. She was just like this—though she had a fiery temper, she would cower when facing someone stronger than her. Deep down, she was afraid of causing trouble. "I have nothing to do with Yun Sisi or Yun Shifei. I simply couldn’t stand the way you bullied someone today. Is it because Yun Shifei is easy to bully? Do you even realize what could happen if you truly slap her? In the end, you would just leave it to Dad and Mom to clean up the mess. Would that make you happy?" Mu Chengzhu’s forceful words left Mu Jiayu stunned. The man before her suddenly seemed no longer like her gentle and refined older brother. He had turned into someone entirely different. Mu Jiayu let out a scream: "I don’t want to hear this! Brother, I really hate you right now!" As she shouted, Mu Jiayu rushed upstairs in a hurry. Soon, the living room fell silent. Mu Chengzhu’s expression gradually softened. He began to reflect on whether he had been too harsh on Mu Jiayu just now. From childhood to adulthood, he had never treated Mu Jiayu this way. While other brothers might often bully their younger sisters, he only ever protected his sister. "Chengzhu, this is the first time I’ve ever seen you get so angry," Chen Min remarked. She handed Mu Chengzhu a cup of tea: "You’ve been back for so long and haven’t had a sip of water; you must be thirsty." "Thanks, Mom." Mu Chengzhu accepted it. Now, his mood had calmed down considerably. "Jia Yu really has been spoiled since childhood. Sometimes she needs to be disciplined." Chen Min’s words alleviated some of Mu Chengzhu’s guilt. Still, Chen Min couldn’t help but ask gossipy questions: "Do you truly no longer like Sisi?" She still remembered that last time when Mu Jiayu teased Mu Chengzhu about Yun Sisi, he hadn’t said a word. This had indicated that Yun Sisi held some significance in his heart. But now, he was denying it outright. "Mom, Sisi and I are childhood friends, nothing more." Hearing Mu Chengzhu put it this way, Chen Min had no more basis to keep prying. Something must have happened to bring about this change in Mu Chengzhu. Nonetheless, Mu Chengzhu was still brooding over the matter with Yun Shifei. He thought of the frightened expression the girl had just shown him, and how Yun Shifei had deliberately avoided him before. Why was she so afraid of him? Mu Chengzhu frowned slightly. Had his cold demeanor in the past hurt her? But surely it couldn’t have made her fear him to this extent... ... With Xu Ya’s absence, this household inevitably felt like it was missing something. For instance, when Yun Shifei got up for school in the mornings, she no longer saw Xu Ya busying herself with breakfast in the kitchen. At the table, it was just her and Yun Tiancheng. Yun Tiancheng usually didn’t need to wake up so early for work, but he worried Yun Shifei wouldn’t get used to it, so he started waking up early to keep her company. "Shifei, eat a little more to ensure you’re properly nourished; otherwise you’ll get hungry quickly." Yun Shifei nodded. As she drank her milk, she said to Yun Tiancheng, "Dad, you really don’t have to wake up this early." Yun Shifei’s thoughtful understanding moved Yun Tiancheng deeply: "It’s alright. Dad wakes up early to read the newspaper anyway." Coming up with such an excuse, Yun Shifei couldn’t help but laugh. When she left for school, Yun Tiancheng drove her there before heading to his office. "Shifei, make sure to focus on your classes. If you have any questions, ask the teachers." "Okay, Dad. Drive safely." After Yun Shifei reminded Yun Tiancheng, she walked into the school campus. Just as she sat down at her desk, a loud smack on her tabletop startled Yun Shifei. Looking up, she saw Song Yang standing in front of her, towering over her. "I heard you kicked Sisi out of the house?" "Who told you that?" Yun Shifei knew it must have been Yun Sisi spreading the rumor to paint herself as pitiful. But honestly, it wasn’t necessary. Back then, she had plotted to abduct her—getting kicked out of the Yun Family was actually quite fitting. "Sisi told me, obviously. Ugly freak, you may not look ugly anymore, but your heart is truly vile. Can you be any more malicious?" "Why don’t you ask Yun Sisi why she tried kidnapping me back then?" "Didn’t she fail? If it didn’t work out, it doesn’t count as anything. Maybe she just wanted to scare you." Yun Shifei couldn’t help but laugh in anger. The human experience of suffering isn’t universal; as long as the pain isn’t carved into someone’s own flesh, it doesn’t count as pain. But for her, it hurt—a lot. She didn’t need others to understand, but at the very least, people with basic empathy wouldn’t think an attempted kidnapping that failed was no big deal. What if it had succeeded? Yun Shifei turned her head away, refusing to look at Song Yang: "I have nothing more to say. If you want to cause trouble for me, go ahead. Regardless, Yun Sisi is never coming back, and I will never let her return to the Yun Family." "You..." Song Yang was stunned. It was the first time he had heard Yun Shifei speak with such cold cruelty, and he was furious.
