Chapter 462: Chapter 455: Disappointment

In the car, Cheng Shishi stared blankly at Chen Bei who was driving in front of her.

She remembered that last night after Wu Chengzu kissed her, he also asked Chen Bei to drive her home. Although he was drunk at the time, his words were logical.

Cheng Shishi stubbornly believed in her heart that Wu Chengzu could not have forgotten about yesterday...

Aunt Yi Ran is the woman Dad loves!

Wu Jingjing’s words echoed once again in Cheng Shishi’s mind. She felt a pang of pain in her heart; that was her first kiss, and it was just gone like that.

She was still immersed in sweetness, still harboring fantasies about Wu Chengzu.

But because of Wu Jingjing’s words and Wu Chengzu’s attitude today, all her expectations were extinguished.

"Sister..." Cheng Shishi murmured softly, looking out the window.

She was almost home.

Chen Bei parked the car across the street, "Teacher Xiao Cheng, we’re here."

"Mm." Cheng Shishi opened the door and got out without saying goodbye to Chen Bei as she usually did.

Chen Bei glanced at the departing Cheng Shishi, pursed his lips, and drove away.

At home, dinner had just been prepared, and Sister Liu was setting the table one dish at a time.

Bai Yiran was in the kitchen helping Sister Liu and came out when she heard Cheng Shishi had returned.

"You’re back! How was class today?"

"It was okay."

Cheng Shishi looked at Bai Yiran, who had grown up with her and always took care of her.

"Go wash your hands and get ready to eat!"

Bai Yiran casually took the dish Sister Liu had just brought out and placed it on the table.

"Okay!"

At the dinner table that night, Cheng Shishi was a bit silent, just focused on eating, only picking the dishes in front of her, and not touching those a little further away.

Bai Yiran picked up a piece of meat and put it in Cheng Shishi’s bowl, "What’s wrong with you today? You’re acting strange?"

"Huh?" Cheng Shishi looked up, "Am I?"

"Yes!" Xiao Lang answered crisply, "Shishi, you’re very different today! Not talking or smiling, it’s not like you!"

"See, even Xiao Lang noticed!" Bai Yiran put down her chopsticks, looking seriously at Cheng Shishi.

This girl was shyly saying she was in love just yesterday, and today she’s like this.

There’s definitely something wrong!

"Tell me honestly, what’s going on?"

"I... I’m really fine." Cheng Shishi forced a smile, "It’s just that my friend’s relationship has some issues, and it made me feel a bit uncomfortable after hearing about it."

Friend’s relationship issues?

Cheng Shishi suddenly put down her chopsticks and looked at Bai Yiran, "Sis, if a woman already has an excellent and loving husband, and a cute child at home, she shouldn’t cheat, right?"

Bai Yiran was taken aback by Cheng Shishi’s sudden question.

"That’s not necessarily true... Everyone is different; whether someone cheats isn’t dictated by the home environment, but by the woman herself. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many family conflicts and divorce cases in the world."

Bai Yiran spoke the truth. In this society, it’s not just men who cheat; often women do, too. She knew Cheng Shishi had just tasted the beginnings of love and romantic fantasies, but Bai Yiran didn’t intend to lie to her. After all, the harsh realities of society are right there.

Bai Yiran looked at Cheng Shishi, "Why? Is this about your friend?"

Cheng Shishi silently nodded while staring at Bai Yiran.

"Sis, my dad got me some buffet vouchers. Let’s set a date to go together."

"Sure, let’s go together!"

Bai Yiran smiled radiantly, and Cheng Shishi gazed at her dazedly.

Sis, please don’t let me down!
