After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Male Beauty Misleads

After that day, Yun Shifei carefully gathered the budding affection in her heart and tucked it away in a hidden corner.

When it came to studying, they raced against time.

But Yun Tiancheng worried that Yun Shifei was too tightly wound, so he gave her two movie tickets over the weekend.

"Shifei, balance work and rest. Tomorrow, go watch a movie with Cheng Lie."

It was a foreign animated film, a true classic.

Yun Shifei didn’t refuse.

The next day, she dragged Cheng Lie along to the cinema to relax.

The film had just been released, and the theater was packed, especially with couples.

Yun Shifei held tightly onto Cheng Lie’s hand, afraid that in the pitch-dark, crowded space, he might accidentally get lost.

She suddenly thought of the time when Yun Sisi dragged Xu Ya and Yun Tiancheng to watch a performance, and Cheng Lie unexpectedly showed up to take her to a dance show instead.

Even back then, he was so warm, so good to her.

If not for the fact that Cheng Lie had casually mentioned that he just had an extra ticket and didn’t know whom to invite, she might have thought he had liked her even then.

She was lost in these thoughts as she walked, not watching her step, when she accidentally tripped over someone’s foot and nearly stumbled. Cheng Lie reacted quickly, pulling her close into his arms.

Yun Shifei froze, too stunned to react.

Then she heard the person sitting nearby say, "Young man, keep an eye on your girlfriend. It’s dark in here—you don’t want her to fall."

"S...sorry..." Yun Shifei stammered.

Girlfriend? Yun Shifei wanted to explain that they weren’t a couple, but on second thought, it seemed unnecessary.

There was no need to explain it deliberately.

Behind her, Cheng Lie, who was still supporting Yun Shifei, heard the stranger’s comment and noticed that she hadn’t denied it. He couldn’t help but curl his lips into a small smile.

The hand on her shoulder tightened slightly. Then, leaning close to her ear, he whispered, "Be careful."
