Chapter 284 : A Rose Wedding 10 (1/2)

Shi Sheng just so happened to be standing nearby so, as the girl put her phone away, she caught sight of that familiar figure when her gaze swept over.

Who else besides Xi Yin—‘That bastard!’—could be so obnoxious?

Shi Sheng’s fingertips twitched as a strange smile surfaced on her face. ‘Well, you’ve come at a good time.’

Shi Sheng left through the back door and found her way to the principal’s office. As expected, after waiting at the foot of the stairs for a while, she saw a figure slowly descending.

When he passed by the flower bush, Shi Sheng grabbed him, dragged him inside with her, and pressed him against the wall nearby. Her hand deftly caught Xi Yin’s wrist.

But she didn’t have time to pour her spirit energy into his body, before Xi Yin twisted his hand to grab her wrist instead and pulled her by the waist with his other hand. With a twist of his feet, the two swapped positions.

“You’re so anxious to throw yourself into my arms after only a few days without seeing me, mhm?” Xi Yin closed in on her, a smile on his face.

Shi Sheng hadn’t expected this fellow to have such good fighting skill.

‘Well I suppose it’s not that Xi Yin’s a particularly strong fighter—it’s that all the other villains I met so far had a bunch of problems. Xi Yin’s what a proper villain should be.’

Shi Sheng didn’t struggle. She used the one hand that could still move freely to grab Xi Yin’s upper arm.

Strands of spirit energy poured into Xi Yin’s body. His brows furrowed slightly. He didn’t know what spirit energy was— even if he wanted to resist the intrusion, he didn’t know how. Hence, he could only allow the spirit energy to continue pouring into his body. But just as he was prepared to let go of Shi Sheng, he suddenly had a very strange feeling.

That was a resonance that came from the deepest recesses of his heart. A resonance with this woman.

Shi Sheng’s lips slowly rose.

‘I knew it.’

Xi Yin watched as her expression turned gentler and ripples appeared in her once placid eyes.

Shi Sheng released Xi Yin, her eyes curving upwards as she spoke, “You’re so handsome, why wouldn’t I throw myself into your arms? Everyone loves beauty! So…we hooking up, handsome?”

Even after she had released him, that strange feeling didn’t disappear. Instead…it only got more pronounced.

Shi Sheng’s change of attitude was too sudden, throwing Xi Yin off guard. He released her and stared at his wrist for a while. He was very certain she hadn’t done anything to him but…what was up with that strange feeling?

Xi Yin frowned as he looked at her.

“I took a liking to you. For real this time.” Shi Sheng spoke ‘sincerely’.

Xi Yin, “…” ‘So you were just joking the last time? Ha!’

He turned around and walked away.

“Why are you leaving? Come on, I did see your body! Aren’t you supposed to make me take responsibility? I will! Promise!” Shi Sheng chased after him.

Xi Yin picked up his speed. ‘She still dares to mention this! Isn’t she ashamed at all?’

He felt irritated to the point he wanted to just throttle her and be done with it. Yet he actually couldn’t bring himself to do so.

That feeling of familiarity prevented him from doing anything to harm her. He didn’t like that feeling. One who was in power mustn’t have any weaknesses.

With a couple of flashes of his body, his figure vanished from her view, leaving behind a rather infuriated Shi Sheng.

Ah, how long and arduous the road to courting her husband was.

‘Looks like it’ll be quicker to just kidnap and screw him.’

She analysed what she currently knew to deduce Feng Ci’s true personality.

‘A tsun… Easily shy… As for the rest, probably just the influence of whatever body he’s using. But even though he’s got the memories and personality of his current body, he’ll subconsciously reveal his true personality sometimes.’

……

She didn’t see Xi Yin for the rest of the afternoon, but Shi Sheng wasn’t anxious. What was hers would be hers eventually. If it didn’t belong to her…it would after she’d snatched it back.

After classes ended, Shi Sheng saw Ai Wei and a tall, handsome man walking by with their arms hooked together. Shi Sheng raised a brow.

‘Isn’t this the Sikong Sa that Mi Nai had a crush on? He does look pretty good. Though not as good as my Feng Ci, of course. He’s the best no matter how he looks.’

The two chatted merrily, making for a rather harmonious scene. But after Ai Wei caught sight of Shi Sheng, her smile seemed to freeze in place.
