Chapter 318: Chapter 318: Looking Forward to the Next Meeting

"You too, don’t eat too much sugar. It’s bad for your health."

"Mhm mhm, I already promised to go on a diet, so I definitely won’t eat anymore. Besides, my grandma has high blood pressure, so she can’t eat too many sweet things either."

Cheng Lie couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile. "Alright, I’m hanging up. Looking forward to next time, when you’ve learned how to kiss me."

Yun Shifei froze for two seconds before realizing what Cheng Lie was referring to. It made her feel bashful, yet a bit annoyed, and she hastily ended the call.

Meanwhile, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Cheng Lie’s lips.

Indeed, no matter how bad his mood was, talking to her always lifted his spirits a bit.

He liked her carefree lifestyle now. He wanted to work hard too, and hopefully one day, he could give her this kind of carefree life.

Otherwise, if he let her live the kind of life he’d grown up with— in the gutters — it would be so unfair to her.

Just as Yun Shifei finished her call and turned around, she saw Xu Yuejiao silently standing behind her. She nearly screamed in fright.

Yun Shifei clutched her wildly beating heart and looked at Xu Yuejiao. "Sister Jiaojiao, you’re going to scare me to death!"

Xu Yuejiao immediately hugged Yun Shifei. "What’s wrong? Were you talking to Cheng Lie?"

Just as she finished speaking, Yun Shifei shushed her, nervously glancing around. "Keep your voice down. Don’t let anyone overhear."

"Alright, I know. It’s our secret, isn’t it!" Xu Yuejiao thought her cousin was simply too timid. What was so bad about talking about being in a relationship? Why did she have to keep it so hidden?

Besides, Yun Tiancheng had already told them that Yun Shifei was seeing someone. They just didn’t know who the person was.

Yun Tiancheng even approved of Yun Shifei dating, so why wouldn’t Yun Shifei simply admit that her boyfriend was Cheng Lie?

Xu Yuejiao voiced her question aloud.

Yun Shifei sighed. "My dad probably wouldn’t accept Cheng Lie."
