After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 52: Chapter 52: To Throw or Not to Throw?

Yun Sisi seemed oblivious to the strange looks they shot her, her gaze fixed solely on Cheng Lie: "Get in the car, Cheng Lie."

Her smile was pure and radiant.

Cheng Lie stayed silent.

"Then, I’ll be heading off first." Yun Shifei waved at Cheng Lie.

This would probably be her final farewell to Cheng Lie.

From now on, they’d just be ordinary classmates.

For some reason, the thought made her feel a little sad.

But she couldn’t bring herself to keep throwing her enthusiasm at someone else’s indifference.

Since Cheng Lie was clearly fed up with her, how could she shamelessly keep clinging to him?

Let bygones be bygones, erased with a single stroke.

Yun Shifei didn’t know that behind her, Cheng Lie’s gaze was locked onto her retreating figure.

In his ordinarily cold eyes, a rare trace of anger flickered.

But with her back turned to him, Yun Shifei remained blissfully unaware.

"Cheng Lie, my sister has already headed home, let’s go too." Yun Sisi acted familiar.

She said this because she believed Cheng Lie would never refuse her overtures of friendliness.

After all, nobody had ever rejected her, especially boys.

The boys around her treated her like a little princess and made her feel certain Cheng Lie wouldn’t be immune to her charm, either.

Sure enough, Cheng Lie said nothing but entered the car through the door she had opened.

Yun Sisi’s lips curled into a proud smile.

But who would have guessed that the next moment, the door slammed shut with a loud *bang*.

Immediately after, a book was thrown out of the window.

As Yun Sisi stared in shock, the car sped away, leaving only a cloud of dust behind.

Yun Sisi looked at the book lying on the ground and then at the car that had already vanished from view.

Her expression stiffened, as though she had witnessed something she simply could not believe.

Her chest heaved up and down.
