After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Cheng Family’s Affairs

So annoying!

Yun Sisi was extremely irritated.

But she didn’t dare to voice her anger. On the surface, she still had to act close to Yun Shifei.

"Sister, you’re back," she said, her face lighting up with excitement.

"Mm."

"Shifei, are you full? Do you want me to make you a bowl of noodles?" Xu Ya asked with concern for Yun Shifei.

She was worried Yun Shifei might feel too restrained at someone else’s house and be shy to eat properly.

"I’m full. I’ll go back to my room now," Yun Shifei said, able to sense the subtle shift in Xu Ya’s attitude toward her.

After taking a shower and stepping out while drying her hair, she heard a knock on her door.

She walked over and opened the door—it was Xu Ya.

"Mom, what’s the matter?"

"Shifei, I went out today and saw this watch. I thought it might be useful for you, especially since you need to check the time while studying. Take a look and see if you like it."

Xu Ya handed over a watch box to Yun Shifei.

Yun Shifei opened it up, revealing a small mechanical watch.

It was simple yet exquisitely crafted.

Yun Shifei happened to need a watch—for exams, for school, and for checking the time while doing homework.

"Thank you, Mom." She was genuinely happy.

Watching Yun Shifei smile brightly, Xu Ya couldn’t help but feel happy herself.

It seemed she’d finally bought the right thing for Yun Shifei this time.

Yun Shifei had never mentioned wanting a watch, but today Yun Sisi had commented that her own watch was broken and needed to be repaired. This made Xu Ya suddenly think that Yun Shifei might need one as well.
