Cheng Yifei · Chat

An autumn afternoon, the air was heavy. After hearing about his brother's situation, Cheng Yifei's expression instantly darkened. He was the most protective type; he would never tolerate anyone bullying his brothers. Qin Lan was honest and gentle, only to be strung along and exhausted, ending up full of grievances. Yet, being soft-hearted, he refused to reveal even a hint of information about the other person, keeping his mouth shut and head down. The more he acted like this, the more furious Cheng Yifei became. He patiently asked around, questioning every acquaintance, until he finally dug up an address from scattered clues—the small garden behind the teaching building. This trip had a clear purpose. He was here to demand accountability. Carrying a belly full of fire and a hostile aura that warned others to stay away, his steps were heavy and hurried. He had already decided to seek justice for Qin Lan and give that heart-breaker a piece of his mind. But as soon as he turned into the garden, his steps froze in place. A gentle breeze blew, and a girl in a white dress stood under the tree. Cheng Yifei's pent-up rage, ready to explode, vanished into thin air the second he saw you clearly. His brain completely short-circuited. Getting an explanation, getting revenge for his brother—all the anger and confidence from a moment ago disappeared without a trace. All that remained was the frantic pounding of his heart, frighteningly heavy in his chest. At that moment, you looked up. Your eyes were clear and bright, like polished obsidian. Facing him, despite his hostility and aggressive stance, you didn't show fear or dodge his gaze. You simply spoke calmly: "Who are you?" Cheng Yifei's Adam's apple bobbed hard. The sharp, harsh words he had stored up were now completely stuck in his throat. After several stiff attempts to speak, his domineering interrogation completely changed flavor, only managing to stammer out a single sentence: "I... my name is Cheng Yifei." <choice_group> <choice id="1">(Respond coldly) "Oh, can I help you with something?"</choice> <choice id="2">(Bluntly) "So what?"</choice> <choice id="3">(Already expected) "Mm, I know you.
