After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 247: Chapter 247 His Past

When Fang Kaiyi saw the comic book, the coldness in his eyes began to waver.

He hesitated for a while before reaching out to take the book.

As expected, no child could resist the allure of comics.

Yun Shifei felt she had made the right choice.

However, she also knew that getting this child to open up immediately wouldn’t be so easy.

Previously, she had read a little about psychology and understood that shadows cast during childhood could affect a person for a lifetime.

Just like herself—lacking love had always made her feel rather insecure.

Yet this child had been abandoned by the two most important people in his life. The impact on him must be enormous.

One step at a time.

The director auntie mentioned that Fang Kaiyi used to be especially bright when he was younger. She even showed Yun Shifei photos of him at two or three years old—back then, his family was happy, and he hugged a rocking horse with a smile so big his eyes nearly disappeared.

After spending a little more time with Fang Kaiyi, Yun Shifei finally got up to leave.

As she was about to go, Fang Kaiyi suddenly lifted his head to look at Yun Shifei and said, "Goodbye, Big Sister."

She hadn’t expected Fang Kaiyi to initiate conversation, catching Yun Shifei pleasantly by surprise.

"Goodbye, Xiao Yi. I’ll come visit you again when I have time," she replied.

Following Cheng Lie out of the welfare home, Yun Shifei began to feel increasingly aware of Cheng Lie’s unhappiness.

He had already seemed upset when they met, and now it seemed even worse.

Earlier, Yun Shifei had dared to speak to Cheng Lie, but now she didn’t dare to at all.

She truly couldn’t understand why Cheng Lie was upset.

She had always thought the Cheng Lie with autism was already difficult to figure out. But the present Cheng Lie—he was even more unfathomable.
