Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Use the Enemy’s Force Against Them

She had originally thought that Yun Shifei would definitely prepare an exquisite gift for Mu Chengzhu.

When the time came, she could thoroughly humiliate her.

But Yun Shifei gave Mu Chengzhu a potted plant?

It was just lucky bamboo.

The plant looked somewhat dehydrated and wilted.

Mu Jiayu couldn’t help but glance at Yun Sisi.

Yun Sisi also looked puzzled—why would Yun Shifei give such a thing to Mu Chengzhu?

There must be a reason.

The reason must be that she liked Mu Chengzhu.

After pondering for a moment, she couldn’t help but say, "Sister, you like Brother Mu, don’t you?"

Yun Shifei felt a headache coming on.

A randomly chosen potted plant—how did it get linked to liking Mu Chengzhu?

"This is lucky bamboo, and Brother Mu’s name includes the word ’bamboo.’ Besides, sister, if I’m not mistaken, this plant was previously sitting on your desk..."

The implicit meaning was clear without needing an explanation, as everyone around understood immediately.

Unbeknownst to her, quite a few eyes had already focused on them.

Yun Sisi was the most beautiful girl in the neighborhood, attracting attention wherever she went.

Today, she was dressed even more stunningly, and with Yun Shifei accompanying her, they became the focal point of the crowd.

As the three of them spoke, numerous gazes naturally landed on Yun Sisi.

Now that people had heard Yun Sisi’s remarks, those eager for drama stirred things up further.
