After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 20

Chapter 20: Chapter 20 So Understanding It Breaks His Heart

Xu Ya couldn’t help but begin reflecting on whether her previous actions had been too cruel.

She had always treated Yun Sisi as the apple of her eye, while constantly neglecting Yun Shifei, who was her biological daughter.

At that moment, Yun Tiancheng came to Yun Shifei’s room and raised his hand to knock on the door.

After a moment, the door opened. Yun Shifei saw Yun Tiancheng and froze for a second: "Dad?"

"Shifei, where did you get the injury on your face? Let me put some medicine on it for you."

"No need, it’s nothing, it’s already been taken care of." Yun Shifei hadn’t expected Yun Tiancheng to ask about her facial injury, but it was just a scrape — it would heal in a few days.

Her understanding demeanor made Yun Tiancheng’s heart ache a bit.

"Stop saying ’it’s nothing.’ Let me take a look."

He walked into Yun Shifei’s room without waiting for her permission.

Xu Ya stood still, wanting to see Yun Shifei’s injury, but her feet felt as though they were weighed down with lead, unable to move.

Earlier, when Yun Shifei had argued with Yun Sisi, she hadn’t even noticed the injury on Yun Shifei’s face. Now, what right did she have to look at it?

The wound had already been treated at the hospital. Though Yun Shifei had taken a fall, it wasn’t in her nature to complain.

At this moment, Yun Tiancheng ripped off the adhesive bandage on Yun Shifei’s face.

Seeing those small wounds, red and swollen, his heart as a father clenched tightly.

While applying medicine, he asked, "Shifei, where did you get these injuries?"

"This morning, on my way to school, it was raining, the roads were slippery, and I accidentally fell."

"Aside from your face, are you injured anywhere else?"
