After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 241: Chapter 241: The Big Shot is Seeking a Relationship

Since he hasn’t forgotten her, then why hasn’t he contacted her for so long?

Hearing Yun Shifei ask this, Cheng Lie said, "I couldn’t contact you."

After pausing, he added in a low voice, "I’m sorry."

"It’s fine, you don’t need to apologize to me. As long as you’re safe, that’s all that matters."

In that instant, Yun Shifei felt like the two of them were still interacting just like the old days.

The boy in front of her didn’t display the strong, imposing aura he had when she first saw him; he was the same obedient, quiet boy that made her hands itch to reach out and pat his head.

But then she remembered how clever he was now, and how there might be boundaries between men and women.

So even though her fingers itched, Yun Shifei refrained from moving her hand.

The two suddenly fell into silence.

Yun Shifei awkwardly picked up the milk tea next to her and started drinking.

Cheng Lie’s gaze landed on her face, watching her seriously sip her milk tea.

When it came to food, Yun Shifei had always been very earnest. In the past, she rarely talked while eating, quietly focusing on the food in front of her. Even when she was nervous, as long as there was something she liked to eat, she could instantly relax.

Just like she was doing now.

Cheng Lie’s lips curved slightly; he realized his mood was the lightest it had been in a long time.

Glancing at the table, he moved a piece of mango mille crepe cake in front of Yun Shifei: "I remember you like mango."

Yun Shifei glanced at Cheng Lie, thinking he really understood her. Just now she had said she was full, but actually, she wasn’t.

In front of her was an array of beautiful cakes, each one was something she had never tried before—she desperately wanted to taste them all.

In the past, when she went out with Cheng Lie, this was how it always went. She would order a lot of food, and whatever she couldn’t finish, Cheng Lie would take care of.
