After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 268: Chapter 268: Becoming a Person Like My Brother

Fang Kaiyi still stared in the direction his mother had left, and seeing Fang Kaiyi like this, Yun Shifei felt a bit of discomfort in her heart.

She stayed beside him, trying to comfort Fang Kaiyi.

Not far away, she spotted an old man pushing a bicycle laden with balloons—Mickey Mouse, Panda, all sorts of balloons were there.

Yun Shifei looked at Fang Kaiyi: "How about I buy you a balloon?"

Fang Kaiyi finally withdrew his gaze, looking at the bike full of balloons. After a moment, he nodded.

Indeed, no child can resist the allure of balloons.

Yun Shifei went to buy the balloon.

Cheng Lie stood next to Fang Kaiyi. Fang Kaiyi glanced at this older brother, someone much older than him. This brother was really cold, but somehow, Fang Kaiyi wanted to become like him.

Although he didn’t know who this brother really was, the aura of someone similar to him unconsciously drew him closer.

"Brother, where’s your mom?" Fang Kaiyi asked proactively.

"Dead."

Fang Kaiyi: "..."

He gave Cheng Lie a sidelong glance, who had said it so nonchalantly. In Fang Kaiyi’s young mind, the concept of death was still blurry. If someone dies, does that mean they’re gone forever?

To his knowledge, no one around him had experienced death, so he didn’t really understand the term.

"If someone dies, do they go to heaven?" Animation shows always said so.

"Death means there’s nothing left. Heaven is just something people imagine," Cheng Lie replied coldly.

Fang Kaiyi: "!!!"

He looked at Cheng Lie with a shocked expression, as though his understanding of the world had just been shaken.

After a while, he asked, "Brother, did you grow up in the orphanage like me?"

No wonder he had an inexplicable fondness for this cold brother—it was because they were the same kind of people.
