Chapter 239: Chapter 239: Meeting Again
On the weekend, Yun Shifei made plans with Xu Yuejiao to go out and shop for sdaily necessities, such as
clothes and skincare products.
They agreed to meet at a spot between their dormitories.
But to her surprise, when she arrived, besides Xu Yuejiao, she also saw Ye Yi.
Ye Yi looked at Yun Shifei. Today, she wore a pale yellow dress that reached her knees, revealing a pair of slender
and straight legs.
Because the weather was hot, she had tied her hair up into a neat bun, looking fresh and beautiful.
Yun Shifei was slightly puzzled about why Ye Yi was there, but out of courtesy, she didn’t ask. She simply greeted
him.
"| didn’t tell you, senior brother is joining us too."
Yun shifei nodded.
"Alright, then let’s go."
The mall in this area didn’t have the things Yun Shifei wanted, so they decided to head downtown to a larger
shopping center.
Yun Shifei bought sdaily necessities and tried on several outfits, all of which she ended up buying.
Thinking about Ye Yi, a guy accompanying them on a shopping trip, she felt a bit embarrassed to linger for too
long.
However, Xu Yuejiao didn’t mind at all; she even made Ye Yi carry their purchases.
Watching Xu Yuejiao and Ye Yi chat so naturally, as if they'd been friends for years, Yun Shifei couldnt help but
blink. If she didn’t know that Xu Yuejiao and Ye Yi had only met a week ago, Yun Shifei would've thought they'd
known each other forever.
Still, seeing their dynamic now, could it be that her cousin and Ye Yi were together?
The thought flashed in her mind, and Yun Shifei’s heart skipped a beat—wasn’t this moving a little too fast?
"I'm so tired; how about we grab something to eat?" Xu Yuejiao sighed, satisfied with all her shopping spoils.
"I think there’s a nice dessert shop nearby. Let's go try it out?"
Yun Shifei’s eyes lit up upon hearing this. Since arriving here, she hadn't had any desserts. The area around their
campus didn’t have any dessert shops, and she really missed them.
This dessert shop was particularly elegant and seemed newly opened, still retaining its fresh atmosphere.
It looked high-end as well, with minimalist décor in subtle, refined colors, exuding sophisticated taste.
Upon seeing the dessert shop for the first time, Yun Shifei couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of familiarity.
But she couldn't place where she might have seen it before.

"Let’s go in," Ye Yi looked at Yun Shifei and Xu Yuejiao.
"Alright, alright!" Before Yun Shifei could respond, Xu Yuejiao eagerly agreed.
They didn’t know that at that moment, someone inside one of the private rooms in the dessert shop was quietly
watching them.
This dessert shop was designed differently from others, modeled more like a café. The private rooms facing the
street sported glass windows, and a young man was leaning against the sofa behind one of them.
He had chere today to unwind. After several consecutive days of intensive work, he had finally wrapped up
a project and could enjoy a moment's rest.
He chose this place, ordered a cake and a coffee, and planned to sit here leisurely all day, thinking over his
thoughts.
He thought about Yun Shifei attending university in Beijing. This past week, he wondered how she was adapting.
He knew which university she was attending, and even what she was majoring in, yet he hadn't presented
himself before her.
Because he didn’t know what mindset he should adopt in facing her.
The version of himself who had interacted with her before was socially withdrawn, but now he was "normal."
What would interacting under these circumstances even entail?
Cheng Lie was hesitant to face her without fully sorting through these thoughts first.
Because he cared too much, the hesitation made him cowardly.
Even though he was someone who wouldn't hesitate to kill, he somehow lacked the courage to show up before
her.
If others knew this, they would surely laugh at him.
Cheng Lie didn’t actually mind being laughed at; he simply wanted to sort things out clearly before approaching
her again.
But he didn’t expect that the moment he refrained from showing up in front of her, she would appear before him
instead.
And in such a manner.
He lazily leaned against the sofa, crossing one leg over the other, and his dark eyes narrowed as he took in the
sight of Yun Shifei and her companions.
At that moment, Yun Shifei was standing between Xu Yuejiao and Ye Yi. Ye Yi’s gaze never left her as he spoke,
his eyes full of unmistakable affection.
The fire in Cheng Lie’s heart was easily ignited, his eyes flickering with a cold, sharp glint.
Excellent. There's always someone coveting what belongs to him.
And his girl? She seemed slower to pick up on things compared to others. Even her cousin was already throwing
them together, creating opportunities for them to get closer, yet she remained clueless.
Looking at her clueless expression, she truly didn’t seem to realize that man liked her.
But regardless of her awareness, Cheng Lie couldn't stand it.
He had held back for over half a year. He never imagined that upon their reunion, this would be the scene he'd
find.
"Zhao Pan," Cheng Lie called out.
The door opened, and Zhao Pan asked, "Mr. Cheng, what's the matter?"
Cheng Lie pointed toward the entrance, "Bring her here."
Zhao Pan was momentarily confused but froze when he saw Yun Shifei stepping into the dessert shop.
Whoa—why was Miss Yun here? Wasn't this place far from their university?
Moreover, judging from Mr. Cheng’s expression, Zhao Pan could tell something was off. He glanced at the man
walking beside Yun Shifei and instantly understood.
"Got it, Mr. Cheng. I'll bring Miss Yun over right away."
They stood at the entrance for a moment before Xu Yuejiao pulled Yun Shifei through the door.
Just as they were about to find a seat, a man in a suit stepped forward.
"Miss Yun, long tno see."
Yun Shifei’s eyes widened. Wasn't this the man who had left gifts outside her door before?
Zhao Pan gave her a meaningful smile, "Miss Yun, our boss would like to see you."
Boss? Was it Cheng Lie?
The term felt oddly mismatched, mature beyond their usual dynamic.
She turned to Xu Yuejiao and Ye Yi, "Why don’t you guys eat first? I'm going to meet a friend."
A friend? Xu Yuejiao found it hard to believe.
"Feifei, do you have friends in Beijing? Why didn’t you tellbefore?"
Xu Yuejiao was skeptical.
She cast a guarded look at Zhao Pan,

"Uncle, who are you? And who is this boss of yours?"
Uncle?! Zhao Pan felt like crying. Did he really look that old? He hadn't even had a girlfriend yet!
"You don’t need to know. Miss Yun knows, and that’s enough." He cast another knowing look at Yun Shifei.
Yun shifei: "..."
"You guys enjoy yourselves; | have something to take care of."
Internally, she was both anxious and excited. Was she finally going to meet Cheng Lie?
"Shi Fei, go ahead then; it’s fine. We'll wait for you outside," Ye Yi said.
