Reborn: Married to the Demon King

Chapter 352: Chapter 352: Burst into Laughter

Cheng Lie heard what Yun Shifei said and froze for a moment, as though he hadn't expected her to say that.

He truly hadn't thought that the tthey had spent together recently could be so haphazard to her—so

haphazard that she wasn’t even sure if he liked her.

Cheng Lie let out a small laugh in anger, his dark eyes fixed tightly on Yun Shifei, yet he didn’t say a word.

Under the weight of his gaze, Yun Shifei lowered her eyes, not daring to meet him.

"What do you mean by ‘not liking that much’?" After a long moment, Cheng Lie asked.

He enunciated each word, and as they left his lips, there was a distinct grinding of teeth undertone.

Wasn't it true? Yun Shifei thought about the tshe proposed breaking up, and Cheng Lie had said nothing at

all. Even during this period of meeting up with her, his demeanor remained so understated.

He was always so cold, detached, as if everything in life was merely fleeting and inconsequential.

She had always believed that he didn’t like her very much. And of course, thinking about it another way, if he

didn’t like her that much, then when she brought up the breakup, she wouldn't feel pained because he was

hurting.

She wanted to explain herself, but as she opened her mouth, she suddenly didn’t know what to say.

At that moment, Cheng Lie stood up, glanced sideways at her, and said, "I'll take you to see something."

He had been restraining his emotions for so long, and now he could no longer hold them back.

Yun Shifei suddenly felt Cheng Lie had changed—his eyes seemed to be swallowed by darkness, with no trace of

light within.

She felt a bit scared and clutched at the cushion in her arms.

"I'm a little tired. Can we go another day?"

Even if she was a fool, she could tell Cheng Lie was angry at this moment. So she tried to appease him, saying

sweetly, "Cheng Lie, was my earlier comment out of line? I'm sorry, please don’t be mad at me."

Her voice was soft and gentle, like the brush of a kitten’s tail across someone's heart.

Normally, he would let her off easily, but not this time. Thinking about the torment he had endured during this

period—the pain she seemed completely oblivious to—and worse still, her doubting his feelings for her...

True, he had refrained from openly expressing his affection around her for various reasons.

But he absolutely couldn't tolerate her not recognizing his feelings for her.

It felt like she had stomped on his dignity and trampled it beneath her feet. A wave of burning fury surged in his

chest, threatening to shatter his control.

He didn’t pay any attention to Yun Shifei’s attempts at appeasing him.

He asked, "You don’t want to go?"

Yun Shifei nodded. If they were going to interact calmly, it would have to wait until his anger subsided.

"Then I'll have to drag you there."

Yun shifei: "..."

Ignoring her pitiful expression, Cheng Lie grabbed her hand and hauled her outside.

When Cheng Lie seized her wrist, Yun Shifei couldn't help but frown.

He was no longer the boy he used to be; he was an adult now, growing more and more mature, and his strength

had increased significantly.

In the past, even when he held her hand tightly, it never felt as overwhelming as it did now—almost to the point

where she feared he might break her bones.

She faintly struggled but found Cheng Lie entirely unresponsive.

He was furious.

Yun Shifei sighed. It was all because of what she had said earlier—it had provoked this storm of anger in him.

Well, seeing him this enraged, she now realized something she hadn't before. He wasn’t as indifferent to her as

she had imagined.

On the contrary, he must actually like her quite a lot.

Perhaps it was due to her longstanding impression of Cheng Lie—as someone naive and slow to understand such

matters—that she doubted whether he grasped what love truly meant.

And honestly, she never imagined that someone as accomplished as him could possibly like someone like her.

If Cheng Lie were to like someone, it should be someone like Wen Lin, not someone like her.

Lost in her thoughts, Yun Shifei barely noticed when Cheng Lie drove her to his home.

"Get out." Cheng Lie unbuckled his seatbelt and cast a glance at her.

Now that they were already here, Yun Shifei could only obediently comply. Fine—it was her words that had

angered him, so she would let him vent as he wished.

Walking into Cheng Lie’s house, it had been a while since she’d last been here, yet the furnishings hadn't

changed much.

The place still felt so empty and cold.

She couldn't help but sigh. Cheng Lie really didn’t know how to live—there wasn’t a single trace of warmth to his

home.

Cheng Lie led her to the door of his room and pushed it open.

Turning back, he caught sight of Yun Shifei’s puzzled expression.

From the restaurant until now, she'd seemed perpetually confused, as though she couldn't understand why he

was angry.

The Cheng Lie of the past always worried about Yun Shifei being bullied due to her naive nature.

But he never imagined that this very naivety of hers could infuriate him so deeply.

"Go in," Cheng Lie said.

Hearing this, Yun Shifei instinctively stepped into the room.

Cheng Lie grew even angrier—she was truly so careless with people. How could she walk into a man’s room

without a shred of caution?

Just like back in South City, when she had cto find him and unceremoniously walked straight into his room

back then as well.

Luckily, the person she met was him.

Yun Shifei grew increasingly baffled—why had her initial defiance angered Cheng Lie, only for her cooperation to

anger him even more now?

Yun Shifei glanced around briefly before averting her gaze.

Cheng Lie, however, asked her, "Won't you take a closer look?"

"Ah... Oh." Yun Shifei, hearing Cheng Lie’s suggestion, began inspecting the room more closely.

And then she saw things she recognized.

There was a framed photograph on Cheng Lie’s desk—a picture that looked oddly familiar.

Yun Shifei stepped forward, picked it up, and realized it was a photo of them taken during a forest park outing

years ago!

At the time, they had taken this picture together—she was smiling brightly at the camera, while Cheng Lie’s eyes

were fixed on her.

Just as Yun Shifei set the photo back down, Cheng Lie spoke again: "Open the drawer and take a look."

Yun Shifei complied.

She opened Cheng Lie’s drawer and saw a simple black box inside. When she opened it, it was filled with colorful

candies.

These candies...

The colorful assortment inside consisted of ones she had eaten before and had even given to Cheng Lie in the

past.

He had kept them all?!

Yun Shifei couldn’t help but turn to look at Cheng Lie. The man was standing quietly behind her, his expression

calm and distant.

He wasn’t as cold as before, but he was far more impossible to read now.

Yun Shifei suddenly realized that she had never truly understood Cheng Lie.
