After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 242: Chapter 242 Men Understand Men Best

"Sister Jiaojiao, I’m not upset. Did you finish eating? I want to leave now." Yun Shifei tugged at Xu Yuejiao’s hand.

"Who’s in the private room? So mysterious." After confirming Yun Shifei was really fine, Xu Yuejiao voiced the question she’d been dying to ask.

Could it be Feifei actually has friends in Beijing? But she’d never heard Yun Shifei mention them.

After pulling Xu Yuejiao outside, Yun Shifei still cast a glance at the private room window. From inside, you could see the outside clearly, but from the outside, all you’d see was a layer of dark, reflective glass—nothing was visible.

Was he watching her at this moment?

Recalling the words Cheng Lie had just spoken, Yun Shifei’s heart raced again, her cheeks gradually warming.

She leaned closer to Xu Yuejiao’s ear and whispered, "It’s Cheng Lie."

"Cheng Lie?!" Xu Yuejiao’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Yun Shifei. "Why is he here? Didn’t you say you might never see him again?"

"I had no idea I’d run into him here." Yun Shifei was equally puzzled. Seeing Cheng Lie earlier, she had been so nervous she couldn’t even string words together—the entire interaction had been controlled by Cheng Lie.

Moreover, she realized he’d become even more enigmatic now. She couldn’t begin to guess what he was thinking.

Ye Yi listened quietly as Yun Shifei and Xu Yuejiao talked about someone he didn’t know at all.

The feeling of being an outsider made Ye Yi feel slightly uneasy.

"Who are you talking about?" He wanted to figure it out and join their conversation.

Upon hearing Ye Yi’s question, Xu Yuejiao replied, "It’s just Feifei’s old classmate. They used to be really close friends—deskmates, even. I didn’t expect him to come to Beijing too."

Really close male classmate.

Considering how Yun Shifei had been in the private room for so long and that person hadn’t come out...

Ye Yi instantly felt a sense of crisis.

"I’m full and a little tired. I think I’ll head back to the dorm and get some sleep." Yun Shifei spoke up, directly changing the subject.

Looking at Ye Yi, she couldn’t help but remember the words Cheng Lie had just said.
