Chapter 259: Chapter 259: Want to Hit Me?

Listening to Cheng Lie’s suddenly softened tone and watching him cautiously wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes.

The boy’s fingertip was slightly warm, gliding over her eyes, carrying a searing heat.

Yun Shifei was a bit stunned, with tears still hanging on her face, but the sadness had already dissipated. She blankly stared at Cheng Lie.

As if she couldn’t understand why he had been questioning her earlier, yet now was wiping away her tears.

Seeing her like this, Cheng Lie couldn’t help but chuckle, but there was also a pang of heartache.

Had he been too harsh on her earlier? Look at how scared he had made her.

"Are you two here to indulge in your romance? Do you even have me in your sights?" Qin Yumo was furious. Seeing the pair so close, his anger swelled.

She behaved so sweetly in front of this man, obediently letting him wipe her tears.

But to him? She was like a feral little cat, claws out, even if her strength was just for show, still making a point to demonstrate her dislike.

Who wouldn’t feel hurt by this?

Cheng Lie snapped back to reality and turned to Yun Shifei: "If you’re not willing to look, then wait outside."

Yun Shifei shook her head: "I’m not scared."

Hearing this, Cheng Lie reached out and ruffled her hair lightly before stepping toward Qin Yumo.

Qin Yumo watched as Cheng Lie approached him step by step.

This was the boy he hadn’t paid much attention to during their last encounter, supposedly brought here by his uncle. Word had it that he was quite impressive; otherwise, his uncle wouldn’t hold him in such high regard and bring him along.

Looking closely now, he had to admit the guy was pretty handsome—it wasn’t surprising that Yun Shifei liked him.

However, his expression was too cold, with a hint of menace.

Soon, he stood right in front of him.

Qin Yumo’s lips curled into a smirk: "What, hoping to hit me?"

Even if his uncle favored this guy, if he dared to hit him? He would have to be tired of living.
