After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Regretted It!

Although they had once been in love, now he wanted his daughter, and she wanted hers. Since their paths were different, it was better to separate early.

Yun Shifei thought about it for a while and quickly came around. Her face lit up with a smile, her eyes curving into crescents, "Dad, you’re right. Don’t worry about me, do what you think is best. That’s your relationship, you don’t need to consider my feelings."

Hearing Yun Shifei, at such a young age, say such mature words, Yun Tiancheng couldn’t help but laugh.

He felt even more tender affection for Yun Shifei in his heart, "Shifei, Dad wants to find someone who can take good care of you. I’m a man; I can’t be as detail-oriented as a woman. If you’re scared of having a stepmother, Dad won’t look for one."

Yun Shifei quickly shook her head, "Dad, it’s up to you. I’m grown up now. If a stepmother dares to bully me, I’ll report it to you."

"Haha..." Yun Shifei’s words made Yun Tiancheng laugh heartily. He patted her on the head, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be on your side when the time comes. Dad will be fair and reasonable, alright?"

Yun Shifei indeed felt reassured. Judging from Yun Tiancheng’s past behavior, it was clear he doted on her very much.

Meanwhile.

Yun Sisi felt that her life had recently become increasingly meaningless.

During the midterm exams, her grades shockingly dropped to the twenties in her class.

Ever since she entered high school, she had never performed so poorly.

The homeroom teacher was extremely concerned and immediately invited Xu Ya over to understand what was going on with Yun Sisi and why her grades had fallen so sharply.

Xu Ya stammered as she explained.

"Sisi’s parent, I’m just saying, she’ll be in her third year next semester, her final year, and she can’t afford to slack off. She’s a promising student; she can still get into South City University."

"I understand," Xu Ya said with a smile.

As they left the office, Yun Sisi followed Xu Ya, the atmosphere between the mother and daughter heavy and silent. Neither of them said a word.

Around them, the chattering laughter of classmates only emphasized the icy, suffocating silence between them.

After a long while, Yun Sisi finally spoke, "Mom, I’m sorry. I embarrassed you by doing so poorly on my exams."
