Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Hitting Cheng Huai on the Head

After chatting with Cheng Lie for a while, Yun Shifei was about to head home.

Unexpectedly, just as she stepped out of Cheng Lie’s room, she ran into Cheng Huai, who had just woken up.

Cheng Huai yawned as he walked out. Upon seeing Yun Shifei, he paused for a moment and then chuckled, "Shi Fei, here to see Xiao Lie again?"

Yun Shifei nodded and obediently greeted, "Hello, brother."

"Hello." Cheng Huai smiled warmly, stepping closer as he reached out to pat Yun Shifei’s head.

But Yun Shifei reacted as if touched by electricity, swiftly shrinking back.

Cheng Huai’s hand froze mid-air, and the smile on his face faded slightly.

"Shi Fei seems to be keeping her distance from me."

"We’re not close, to begin with," Yun Shifei replied.

She didn’t like Cheng Huai. After being warned by Sun Xiaoqi, she felt no need to force herself to endure any discomfort, especially since she was still a kid.

Cheng Huai was a few years older than her, so he probably wouldn’t dare do anything to her.

But inside, Cheng Huai felt a twinge of annoyance. Look how close she was with Cheng Lie, always spending long hours in his room. With him? She deliberately kept her distance.

What’s that supposed to mean?

Unable to suppress his irritation, Cheng Huai took two steps forward, and Yun Shifei instinctively backed away.

In the hallway, it was just the two of them. Yun Shifei started feeling stifled, anxious, and deeply scared.

Cheng Huai wasn’t someone to be trifled with.

Especially now, with that strange smile lingering on his face, as if scheming something particularly horrifying.

"Shi Fei, do you know that this kind of attitude makes your brother very disappointed? Brother hopes you can be a bit closer to me," he coaxed, as if placating a child. "You can hang out in Xiao Lie’s room, so why not in mine? I even got you a gift."

This kind of sweet talk might work on little kids, but Yun Shifei’s heart was pounding in her throat, and she felt suffocated.

"I need to go home. If I get back late, my dad will worry."

"Uncle Yun’s gone to the office today, hasn’t he?" Cheng Huai easily exposed Yun Shifei’s lie.
