CHAPTER 382: CHAPTER 382: LOCKDOWN!

So, even though in this lifetime, many things have deviated from their original course, Mu Chengzhu and Yun Sisi still ended up together just like in the last life.

However, looking at the way the two of them stand together, it seems there isn’t much affection.

Yun Shifei couldn’t help but think of the scene from the last life when Mu Chengzhu and Yun Sisi stood together.

At that time, although they didn’t show much fondness for each other, there was a strange atmosphere between them, and an odd tacit understanding.

Yun Shifei didn’t understand it back then, but now she knows.

But in this lifetime, it seems they don’t have this feeling.

Yun Shifei found it very strange.

Looking at Mu Chengzhu, it seemed he had been manipulated by Yun Sisi.

But given Yun Sisi’s current destitute state, she couldn’t possibly have such means.

There must be someone behind her helping her do this, right?

Is it Cheng Lie...

But he’s probably busy these days looking for his father’s whereabouts and handling his mother’s past issues, how could he have the time to deal with Mu Chengzhu?

She thought, perhaps it’s for the best that Mu Chengzhu and Yun Sisi are together too; they’re like a match made in heaven, so they should just hold each other down and not harm others.

Mu Chengzhu will probably marry Yun Sisi.

Mu Chengzhu has just taken over the Mu Family and is a well-known newcomer in this circle. Everyone’s watching him to see if the Mu Family can rise... it all depends on how he manages it.

At this critical time, he absolutely can’t make the slightest mistake.

If the reporters catch him and Yun Sisi in a hotel room and he doesn’t stay with Yun Sisi afterwards, he will be seen as too licentious and unstable, which would greatly diminish his credibility in the business world.

Yun Shifei knows that for successful people, reputation is very important, and romantic issues may seem minor, but who knows if they’ll cause people to have second thoughts.

Mu Chengzhu can’t afford to take any risks now.

Thinking of the person who orchestrated this, Yun Shifei was secretly alarmed, does Yun Sisi have such a mind?

Two days later, Mu Chengzhu came to find Yun Shifei.

"Shi Fei." He stood at the door, a sullen look on his face, in stark contrast to his usual sunny and cheerful demeanor.

Yun Shifei looked at him, wanting to hear what he had to say.

"Cheng Lie set me up." Mu Chengzhu said.

Although he had no evidence yet, it was obvious; the only person who could strike at him so flawlessly could only be Cheng Lie.

Even if it wasn’t, there was a fifty percent chance it was Cheng Lie.

"What are you talking about? Don’t slander Cheng Lie." Yun Shifei replied.

Seeing her protective stance, Mu Chengzhu sneered, "You don’t know how terrifying he is. Zhao Haishuang was killed by someone he hired, and now he’s investigating those who used to humiliate him, that nanny, and their housekeeper..."

Mu Chengzhu thought, since Cheng Lie wouldn’t let him be happy, then he might as well break him and Yun Shifei up again.

"What nonsense are you talking!" Yun Shifei didn’t want to listen to Mu Chengzhu anymore, so she directly shut the door.

Although she stopped listening to Mu Chengzhu, Yun Shifei still felt a bit restless inside.

Would Cheng Lie really go down the path of revenge?

Maybe not before, but these days, ever since he learned his father wasn’t Cheng Guomin, his personality seemed to have subtly changed.

Perhaps he would really do it.

But, she was afraid he’d commit crimes, sacrificing the rest of his life, it really wasn’t worth it.

Yun Shifei’s heart tightened.

At this time, her phone rang.

Yun Shifei saw that it was Xu Yuejiao calling her.

On the other end, Xu Yuejiao said bewilderedly, "Feifei, what’s going on? I heard from Xu Yi that Yun Sisi is going to marry Mu Chengzhu and even invited her to attend."

Married... she really guessed it right, in the end, Mu Chengzhu would be with Yun Sisi.

"Yes, it’s true."

"Didn’t Mu Chengzhu like you before? How did it become Yun Sisi?"

Yun Shifei briefly explained the situation to Xu Yuejiao.

Xu Yuejiao gasped.

She couldn’t help but laugh, "This is too ridiculous! Even TV dramas don’t dare to play it like this."

Xu Yuejiao felt she was about to die of laughter.

"Honestly, I think it’s a real pity for Mu Chengzhu to be with her. But, this is evil met by evil, let them torment each other."

Even though she knew Mu Chengzhu had done some bad things to Yun Shifei, Xu Yuejiao still felt it was too much of a loss for him to marry Yun Sisi.

Yun Shifei didn’t say anything, changing the subject by asking Xu Yuejiao about Old Mrs. Xu and her romantic progress.

"Not much progress, Zhou Li doesn’t even have a phone, can’t see him at all during vacation."

Compared to summer vacation, Xu Yuejiao wishes for the school to start quickly.

That way, she can see Zhou Li soon!

After hanging up, Yun Shifei hugged her precious one, thinking that they had all grown up, and everyone’s life path was different.

Some people become better, some become worse, some can grow up simply, while some have to accept increasingly complex and strange environments.

The comparison between people, even when it’s simple, seems particularly unfair.

Just like her Cheng Lie, who has to be so tough and ruthless to survive until now.

Right now, Cheng Lie is meeting with Cheng Guomin.

He conveyed the news of Zhao Haishuang’s death to Cheng Guomin.

After hearing it, Cheng Guomin’s face showed neither joy nor sorrow, and he simply said, "It was her fate."

Fate? Cheng Lie found it rather laughable for Cheng Guomin to use that word.

Cheng Guomin was quite surprised that Cheng Lie would come to see him again. He thought that even if Cheng Lie was his "illegitimate child," there was still a blood relationship. Cheng Lie must still feel that home is the warmest harbor after wandering outside for so long, right?

Moreover, he had not treated him badly all this time.

To his surprise, Cheng Lie said to him, "Do you want to join Zhao Haishuang?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Guomin’s heart tightened, and all his thoughts vanished in an instant.

The memory of the indifferent, often silent child was gradually fading away; he had grown into a man, more defined and sharp, with cold, dark eyes that gave no clue as to what he was thinking.

He looked a lot like his mother, both so good-looking.

But his personality was completely different from his parents’.

So he was so difficult to deal with.

Thinking of this, Cheng Guomin pursed his lips and replied, "Xiao Lie, believe it or not, everything I’ve done over the years was for your own good."

Cheng Lie let out a cold laugh, without saying more to Cheng Guomin, he got up and left.

He came here just to deliver the news of Zhao Haishuang’s death to him. As for the fact that he had learned the truth, he still couldn’t tell Cheng Guomin. Who knows if Cheng Guomin has some contacts outside? If someone comes to see him and realizes he already knows the truth, then...
