But recently, Mu Chengzhu has been especially cold towards her. Yun Sisi finally saw him at the cake shop after school and hurried over, hoping to see what he was eating, and take the opportunity to sit down and chat with him. She wanted to know what his relationship with Yun Shifei was and whether he still liked her. But unexpectedly, she ran into Yun Shifei. Yun Shifei must have intentionally appeared here because she couldn’t stand seeing her doing well! Yun Sisi was very angry. But on the surface, she still had to pretend to be very affectionate with Yun Shifei. "Sister, I didn’t expect to run into you while Brother Mu and I were eating. What a coincidence." Mu Chengzhu heard her words and furrowed his brows. Clearly, they didn’t meet at the same time. Yun Shifei felt particularly annoyed inside. Hmm... although the cake from this cake shop is delicious, if Yun Sisi keeps bothering her like this, she wouldn’t be able to eat. She looked at Cheng Lie: "How about we take it home to eat?" She completely ignored Yun Sisi, treating her like air. Yun Sisi immediately felt aggrieved, looking at Mu Chengzhu: "Brother Mu, I don’t know why Sister isn’t talking to me anymore. Does she think I’m not fit to be her sister now that I’ve been kicked out of the Yun Family? Well, I was brought back from an orphanage, and my biological parents are from a rural family. How can I compare with Sister?" Tears began to fall from her eyes as she looked even more pitiful. As she spoke, she cast a fearful glance at Yun Shifei. "Sister must despise me even more now, after all, I have nothing. Unlike Sister, who gets whatever she wants from Dad." Yun Sisi intended to use her weak position to push Yun Shifei into a pit of fire. Yun Shifei quietly watched Yun Sisi, unable to resist asking, "What else do you want when you have nothing? Acting so pretentious, can your Brother Mu really stand it?" She wouldn’t usually speak like this because she always believed in living quietly and avoiding conflict with others whenever possible. But at this moment, Yun Sisi’s words were disgusting, always putting on a show like this. Since the two of them no longer lived under the same roof, there was no reason to tolerate her any longer, so she couldn’t help but jab at her. For the first time, Mu Chengzhu heard Yun Shifei retaliate, and she even dragged him into it. Although he felt a bit offended, he still wanted to laugh. He replied, "I can’t stand it." Unexpectedly, Mu Chengzhu cooperated with her, which surprised Yun Shifei. In fact, during this time, Mu Chengzhu seemed really different from before, not as annoying, and even wanting to be friends with her? Yun Shifei felt a shiver run through her as she remembered the miserable end she met in her previous life. No matter how good he seemed now, she was determined to stay far away from him. Dogs that bite don’t bark, and Mu Chengzhu’s mind was much deeper than she knew. She was too young to compete with him, so it was best to stay away. With even Mu Chengzhu siding with Yun Shifei, Yun Sisi was almost furious to death. Why? Why didn’t Mu Chengzhu dislike Yun Shifei now; was it just because she looked better? But her grades were terrible, she wasn’t cultured, and even so, Mu Chengzhu liked her? Her Brother Mu, how could he be such a shallow person! Yun Sisi felt utterly devastated. She suddenly realized that the world had never treated her kindly. She felt so hopeless and desperate. She recalled that realistic dream she had before; she always felt like the version of herself in the dream who had everything was the reality, and now everything seemed like a dream. At this point, the waiter brought over the hot milk tea she had ordered. This type of milk tea was popular from Hong Kong Island, rich with a hint of bitterness, only tasting good with sugar added. Recently, this milk tea had been popular among her classmates. But Yun Sisi wasn’t in the mood to drink milk tea now. She stared at the steaming cup of milk tea, and a thought crossed her mind. She stood up and walked towards Yun Shifei. "Sister, I don’t know what I did wrong. I hope you won’t be mad at me anymore. This milk tea is my treat." She approached Yun Shifei, tilting the milk tea in her hand, aiming to pretend to accidentally spill it on Yun Shifei. If all this scalding milk tea were poured on Yun Shifei, it should be quite a sight. An icy smile appeared at the corner of Yun Sisi’s mouth. Unexpectedly, just as she reached out to pour the milk tea on Yun Shifei, a hand suddenly reached out beside her and grabbed Yun Sisi’s hand. With a twist. Crash—— "Ah——" Yun Sisi screamed as the milk tea fell to the ground, with the cup rolling across. But it was already too late. It hurt, it hurt so much! Most of the milk tea poured over her, and the scalding liquid reddened her skin. Tears fell from Yun Sisi’s eyes. She had never been hurt like this before, her skin so tender, how could she withstand such pain? Seeing this, even though Mu Chengzhu didn’t like Yun Sisi, he couldn’t bear it. He quickly grabbed napkins to help her wipe, and the waiter, having heard the commotion, also ran over. The scene was chaotic. Yun Shifei reacted a moment later, taking a few seconds to realize what had happened. She looked at Cheng Lie, a bit surprised. When Yun Sisi was handing her the milk tea, Cheng Lie suddenly reached out and grabbed Yun Sisi’s hand. Yun Sisi couldn’t hold on to it, causing the milk tea to spill over herself, leading to the commotion just now. At the time, she saw Yun Sisi about to knock into her and was ready to dodge. Unexpectedly, Cheng Lie reacted so quickly, grabbing Yun Sisi’s hand. And thus, the previous scene occurred. Yun Sisi was taken to wash under cold water and applied medicine; only then did the burns on her two arms relieve a bit. But her fair skin was already a bright red patch. She stared at Cheng Lie, full of incomprehension: "Cheng Lie, why did you do this to me? What did I do to provoke you?" Unfortunately, her anger and grievance had no effect on Cheng Lie. The young man remained calm, without a hint of guilt for doing something bad. His gaze was hollow, as if he didn’t even realize what he had just done. With the same expression. In a flash of thought, Yun Sisi suddenly remembered that long ago, Cheng Lie had asked her out at the library, and right afterward, she’d lost consciousness. Later, she had been found with Song Yang in the storage room by the principal. From that incident, Yun Sisi had always felt it was Cheng Lie’s doing; she just had no evidence. And then she thought Cheng Lie had autism, maybe she had misunderstood. But after that misunderstanding, now surely she wasn’t wrong, right? That fool could grab her hand so quickly and accurately, pouring all the milk tea on her, like he saw through her plan!
