After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 228: Chapter 228 That Woman Is Just Using You

Yun Shifei cursed Cheng Lie in her heart, calling him a liar—she wasn’t going to go out of her way to defend him.

It would just make her look like a fool.

She was so upset she even ripped off the little rabbit charm hanging on her backpack and stuffed it into her

drawer where she wouldn't have to see it.

If she ever got the chance to see Cheng Lie, she'd definitely give him a piece of her mind. Why did he deceive

her?

But then again, who knew if she'd ever get to meet Cheng Lie again in this lifetime?

The thought of it stirred up a pang of sadness.

Everything about Cheng Lie seemed to fade into rumor as the Cheng Family fell from grace and Zhao Haishuang

left their neighborhood. No one could say whether the rumors were true or false.

Neighbors in the community only thought Cheng Lie was cold and heartless. The Cheng Family had treated him

well, yet in the end, he wouldn't even donate his bone marrow—he just disappeared without a trace.

But since none of the involved parties were around anymore, the rumors eventually fizzled out.

Yun Shifei continued studying earnestly, preparing for the looming college entrance exam.

Each tshe took a test, her scores surpassed the last, and she'd becone of the top students in her

school.

The teachers saw her as someone with great potential for getting into a prestigious university.

From a struggling student in the worst class during her first year, always at the bottom of the rankings, she had

risen through sheer hard work to rank among the top twenty in her grade as senior year approached. Teachers in

all grades now held her up as a role model, urging other students to focus on their studies.

But Yun Shifei also felt she had hit a bottleneck in her progress.

Her grades seemed stuck in the teens and twenties, mainly because her math scores still lagged behind—she

needed to put more effort into improving them.

Mu Jiayu, seeing the rapid strides Yun Shifei had made, couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy. Back in freshman

year, their scores were worlds apart, but after two years of hard work, Yun Shifei now achieved such incredible

results.

Yun Sisi, too, reflected deeply. She ranked fifth in the grade this time, which was no small achievement.

The result cfrom a lot of dedicated study on her part.

With only two months left until the college entrance exam, she was determined to get into a good university as

well.

At the stime, she was working hard to ingratiate herself with Xu Ya and Yun Tiancheng.

She found out that Xu Ya hadn't returned to the Yun Family, which struck her as odd. However, she knew Xu Ya’s

workplace; Xu Ya often worked overtime, so every day Yun Sisi packed up a meal from the shop to bring to her.

Initially, Liu Congfang disapproved, but Yun Sisi persuaded her: "The Yun Family is a powerful family. If they

recognizeagain, wouldn't | be able to bring you even more money?"

Liu Congfang hesitated.

She still remembered how Yun Sisi used to earn her several hundred, even thousands of dollars—money she

couldn't hope to make in a month.

Yet Yun Sisi hit a snag. Every day, she brought Xu Ya food, but Xu Ya rejected her coldly.

Xu Ya, who had once been so kind to her, now seemed utterly indifferent.

But Yun Sisi refused to give up. There was no way the love Xu Ya had showered on her before could just vanish—

it had been real. How could it possibly disappear so easily?

So she persisted in delivering food to Xu Ya daily.

Until one day, Xu Ya told her, "Sisi, you don’t need to bringfood every day anymore."

"But Mom, eating so late is bad for your health," Yun Sisi replied.

"I know what you want, but we can’t go back to the past." Xu Ya paused, knowing the next words would hurt Yun

Sisi, but she needed to say them.

"Sisi, I've thought about it a lot during this time. I'm sorry—I haven't been a good mother. Your biological parents

are decent people. If you face difficulties in life, | can give you a monthly allowance, and | can also cover your

college expenses."

Xu Ya knew Liu Congfang might not agree to let Yun Sisi continue her studies, but her own finances were just

enough to cover four years of tuition and living expenses for Yun Sisi.

Yun Sisi understood now. No matter how hard she tried, there was no way she could find a place in Xu Ya’'s heart

anymore.

This realization left Yun Sisi heartbroken.

"Mom, can’t you giveone more chance? Just because I'm not related to you by blood, you're going to

abandon me?"

"It’s not that," Xu Ya paused before continuing. "Your biological parents have shown up. It’s better for you to

return to them."

So it was because of her biological parents.

That made sense. If her biological parents were out of the picture, the Yun Family would still have to take care of

her even if she made mistakes.

But now, with the Yun Family pushing her away and Liu Congfang pulling her back, she had no choice but to

return to her biological parents.

Now, no matter what she did, she couldn't go back to the Yun Family.

She had cried, she had fought, she had tried to win them over—and yet, this was the outcome. What was she

supposed to do?

Yun Sisi gazed at the sky, thinking her fate shouldn't be so harsh.

When she got home, Song Yang was waiting downstairs for her. Seeing her return, he smiled and said, "Sisi, |

have a gift for you."

Song Yang pulled out a box and handed it to Yun Sisi.

Yun Sisi was in no mood, but she opened it to find a necklace with a diamond that sparkled under the light.

Her eyes lit up briefly—this thing could fetch sdecent money if she sold it.

"Thank you. | really like it."

Yun Sisi couldn’t stand the look on his face but had to pretend to be pleased. "Good luck! | hope we can end up

at the sschool."

Song Yang nodded, "Sisi, I'm leaving now."

“Alright.”

Before leaving, Song Yang hugged Yun Sisi.

Yun Sisi turned away and walked into the stairwell, disgusted.

He was also willing to be used by her.

Song Yang gleefully went hand ran into Su Ni standing by the road. He was startled.

"Hey, little girl, what are you doing standing out here so late at night?"

"Waiting for you."

"Something up?"

In high spirits, Song Yang whistled.

But Su Ni’s mood was far from cheerful; her face was notably cold.

"I heard you're dating that Yun Sisi?"

"Yep! Get a load of your Brother Yang—isn't he quite the catch?"

"That woman is just using you!" Su Ni felt Song Yang was hopelessly deluded. She had even spoken with Song

Yang's mother, yet he still kept seeing Yun Sisi.

That Yun Sisi was peculiar as well—after being humiliated by Song Yang's mother, how could she keep hanging

onto him?
