Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Jealousy

Yun Shifei hadn’t had the chance to stop Xu Yuejiao before Xu Yuejiao had already gone to find Cheng Lie.

"Good morning, Cheng Lie." Xu Yuejiao greeted him.

Cheng Lie hadn’t expected to see Xu Yuejiao and nodded politely at her. "Sister."

Hearing his polite greeting, the anger Xu Yuejiao had been feeling moments ago dissipated by more than half. Maybe—just maybe—he really didn’t have that much connection with the other person?

Cheng Lie also spotted Yun Shifei. Yun Shifei smiled at him and stuffed something into his hands. "Here, have some."

These were snacks she had recently bought extras of.

After handing them over, she glanced at him a couple more times. "Are you planning to head back now?"

Cheng Lie made a sound of acknowledgment. "Next time, I’ll come to your school to find you."

Yun Shifei nodded.

At that moment, she felt someone’s gaze fixated on her.

She turned and saw Wen Lin standing not far from Cheng Lie.

She actually really wanted to know what kind of relationship they had. She’d never seen this girl before, yet there was something vaguely familiar about her.

While she hesitated about whether to ask, Wen Lin had already stepped forward, smiling as she looked at Yun Shifei. "Hello. I’m a friend of Mr. Cheng. My name is Wen Lin."

A friend, huh.

But that gaze, so laden with aggression, made Yun Shifei feel uncomfortable.

It was as if Wen Lin was sizing her up with a critical eye that Yun Shifei couldn’t quite interpret.

Wait... Wen Lin?

The last time Yun Shifei heard this name was when she’d gone to play piano.

Back then, she hadn’t known who Wen Lin was.

So, this Wen Lin was the heiress of the Wen Group—the future Sect Leader of the Wen Group...
