Chapter 26: Chapter 26 HandlingAt the same time, with both of them saying that, what else could Yun Shifei say? Say she didn’t want to go? Yun Sisi would definitely make a huge fuss over it. Yun Shifei had no choice but to accept the ticket and say to Yun Sisi, "Thank you, Sisi." She was just speaking when Yun Tiancheng walked in. "Dad!" Yun Sisi called out first, running over to help Yun Tiancheng with his briefcase. "Dad, why are you off work so early today?"

Yun Tiancheng seemed to be in an excellent mood, smiling happily as he reached out to pat Yun Sisi’s hair. "Dad, you’re the best." Yun Sisi acted spoiled and coquettish with Yun Tiancheng for a bit. Adults always liked kids like Yun Sisi—not only pretty and academically excellent, but also sweet-tongued and good at acting clingy. Yun Shifei couldn’t do that. Her personality was more reserved, and her upbringing didn’t allow her to behave in such a coquettish manner. However, watching Yun Sisi being this close with Yun Tiancheng, she still felt a bit envious. It was only during moments like this that Yun Sisi felt a slight sense of satisfaction. See? She was the daughter Yun Tiancheng and Xu Ya raised for over a decade, the one who could act spoiled with them without a care. And Yun Shifei? What was she, really? All she could do was stand on the side, staring longingly. After talking with Yun Sisi for a bit, Yun Tiancheng turned to Yun Shifei and said, "Shifei, I’ve found you a tutor." Yun Shifei froze for a moment, then replied, "Thank you, Dad." "I was discussing business with your Uncle Cheng today. When he heard that we were looking for a tutor for you, he mentioned that he had just hired a tutor for Cheng Lie—a student from Nan City University. This way, you two can study together in the future." "Huh?" Yun Shifei was momentarily at a loss. Getting a tutor was one thing, but what did this have to do with Cheng Lie? "You’ll attend lessons together going forward. I heard you’re in the same class, so you can interact more in both academics and daily life. Don’t be fooled by how quiet Xiao Lie is. According to Old Cheng, he’s actually very smart." Study together with Cheng Lie? Cheng Lie? The image of Cheng Lie’s cold face surfaced in Yun Shifei’s mind, his gaze as deep and unfathomable as the vast ocean, impossible to read. From now on, she would be attending lessons with him? But attending lessons together probably wasn’t a big deal; as long as it helped her studies, everything would be fine. Yun Shifei didn’t think much more of it. But Yun Sisi, on the other hand, thought a great deal about it. She wasn’t happy again. Originally, she had planned to frame Yun Shifei and Cheng Lie to make Yun Tiancheng and Xu Ya so furious that they’d kick her out of the house. But unfortunately, the plan had failed. Fine, failing was one thing, but now the Cheng family was getting closer to theirs because of Yun Shifei—even discussing business collaborations?! What kind of ridiculous luck had Yun Shifei stumbled upon? If things went on like this, her parents would definitely start to like Yun Shifei more and more. Yun Sisi felt unwilling. If she had gotten closer to Cheng Lie back then, would Uncle Cheng’s favorite person be her? But that fool...Her noble self had found him a bit beneath her. If she wanted to get in good with someone from the Cheng family, it would’ve been better to focus on Cheng Lie’s brother, Cheng Huai. Speaking of which, Cheng Huai had always liked her too. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have helped her scheme to frame Cheng Lie and Yun Shifei back then. It was a shame that didn’t work out. What a pity. Should she try to get closer to Cheng Huai again? The Cheng Household. "Xiao Lie, I’ve hired a tutor for you. Starting this weekend, Shifei will be attending lessons with you. Doesn’t it feel good to have a new friend?" Cheng Guomin looked at Cheng Lie, smiling warmly and kindly. Cheng Lie kept his gaze lowered, quietly eating his meal, as if he hadn’t heard Cheng Guomin. Cheng Guomin sighed. Cheng Lie had been so bright in the past. Back in elementary school, the teachers had said he was exceptionally gifted, consistently scoring at the top of his class. Later on... Thinking back on those events, Cheng Guomin’s heart grew heavier. "Dad, how’s he supposed to attend lessons like this?" Cheng Huai said from the side. "The lessons aren’t the main thing. I just want Xiao Lie to meet more friends. He’s had no friends all these years—too lonely. I think that girl seems pretty decent; her situation is also a bit similar. Maybe they’ll become good friends, and it might even help with his condition." Similar situation, so they should become friends? That’s probably because normal people didn’t want to waste their time being friends with this fool. Cheng Huai glanced at Cheng Lie, who was silently eating, and a mocking smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. Someone like Cheng Lie was only fit to befriend a bumpkin like her. Soon it was Friday. Yun Shifei had been dealing with a headache all morning; she really didn’t want to go watch Mu Chengzhu’s basketball game. She didn’t like Mu Chengzhu anymore. To her, he was just someone irrelevant. The time spent watching basketball could be better used solving a few more practice problems. Besides, Yun Sisi had been so enthusiastic about handing her the ticket. There was surely something waiting for her over there. Knowing a trap lay ahead yet walking into it anyway? She wasn’t that brave. Yun Shifei poked her notebook repeatedly, almost poking a hole through it. The frustration lingered until afternoon. After the lunch break, it was time for class. Song Yang walked in, dripping with sweat. He gulped down water from a bottle of mineral water as he wiped his sweat. He usually spent his lunch breaks playing basketball on the court. The scorching sun these days didn’t dampen his passion at all. Perhaps because she’d been keeping a low profile lately, Song Yang had mostly stuck to teasing her once in a while rather than purposely giving her trouble. "Hey, ugly face, take this movie ticket and give it to Sisi. Tell her she’s going to the movies with me tomorrow." Song Yang tossed a movie ticket onto Yun Shifei’s desk. It was for a popular comedy movie that was currently a hit with the younger crowd. Yun Shifei remembered this movie. Years later, it would become a classic, often revisited nostalgically. "Give it to her yourself. It’d be more sincere," Yun Shifei suggested, as if the thought had just occurred to her. She tilted her head, smiling slyly at Song Yang. Seeing Yun Shifei’s smiling face, Song Yang’s expression stiffened for a moment. Truth be told, Yun Shifei did bear a slight resemblance to Yun Sisi. But Yun Sisi was undoubtedly the prettier one. "I don’t want to bother her at school. She won’t like it," he said. Well, at least he had some self-awareness. Yun Shifei sneered inwardly. She pulled out the basketball game ticket from her bag and placed it on her desk. In a soft, hesitant voice, she said, "This afternoon, my sister plans to attend the basketball game at the school gym. You could see her there." Seeing the ticket, Song Yang immediately snatched it up. "Wow, you have a ticket?" "Sisi gave it to me." "Hand it over. I’ll go find Sisi." Without another word, Song Yang stuffed the ticket into his pocket. "No, Sisi will get mad," Yun Shifei pretended to protest. "Shut up, ugly face. Handing it over means it’s mine," Song Yang dismissed her protest and left without looking back, taking both the basketball ticket and the movie ticket with him, apparently planning to deliver the latter himself. Having gotten rid of this nuisance and the things she didn’t know how to deal with, Yun Shifei couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. A small smile played at the corners of her lips. She was feeling rather clever. It was then that she noticed a gaze fixed on her. Turning her head, she saw Cheng Lie.
