Chapter 294: Chapter 294: She Kissed His Cheek

This is probably the first time she has complimented him so seriously.

Usually, she only dared to steal glances at him, and upon being caught, she would immediately hide and pretend she hadn’t looked.

Cheng Lie’s mood lightened a bit as he pinched her smooth cheek. "You look good too."

Adorably cute, like a little bunny, making people want to keep her as a pet.

"Not as good-looking as you. Cheng Lie is the best looking, the most handsome under the heavens, even better looking than Mu Chengzhu or anyone else," Yun Shifei continued to praise.

But Cheng Lie’s expression gradually turned cold upon hearing Yun Shifei mention Mu Chengzhu.

He recalled what Mu Chengzhu had said—their shared secret.

Looking at the girl beside him, smiling with crescent eyes, he couldn’t resist gripping her chin and staring intensely at Yun Shifei.

"Shifei, what is the secret between you and Mu Chengzhu?"

Yun Shifei’s gaze met Cheng Lie’s.

In that instant, she felt as though Cheng Lie’s eyes held an endless deep ocean, pulling her in.

"The secret between Mu Chengzhu and me..."

What indeed was the secret between her and Mu Chengzhu?

Yun Shifei involuntarily recalled that day when Mu Chengzhu suddenly came to Beijing to find her, telling her that he also remembered memories from their past life. At that time, she was flustered, scared he would reveal this secret.

Afraid she might fall into a bottomless abyss.

But at that moment, Mu Chengzhu promised her he wouldn’t disclose the secret.

"He found out about me..."

Before Yun Shifei could continue, Cheng Lie frowned, reached out, and lightly touched her eyelids.

Yun Shifei’s expression became slightly clearer than before; she shook her head. "My head feels a little dizzy."

Cheng Lie took a deep breath, restraining his emotions.
