After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 314: Chapter 314: Missing Her

Yun Shifei continued speaking to Cheng Lie: "But to be honest, my parents do love each other. I have shadows in my heart because of my mom, but I can’t stop my dad from loving her. This is actually why I initially chose to give up attending the university close to home and insisted on going to Beijing."

"Because I know they have feelings for each other. If their marriage ends up a mess because of me, I would feel very guilty."

Listening to Yun Shifei’s words, Cheng Lie’s heart ached deeply for her. She was just too tolerant, and that was why she carried so much pain inside.

But then, that was also the very quality that had drawn him to her in the first place.

Clearly, she was as scarred as he was, her heart riddled with wounds. And yet, her soul still leaned toward the light. When his world was dark and gloomy, she could still greet the world with a radiant smile.

"Life gave me pain, yet I responded with a song."

That must’ve been written with Yun Shifei in mind.

It was precisely her positivity and optimism that pulled him from the abyss of despair.

In everything she did, she always held onto a sliver of humanity deep in her heart.

Unlike the past, when he carelessly gave in to his impulses.

For the first time, he could feel the warmth of the human world, no longer just its icy coldness.

Quietly listening to Yun Shifei’s voice, Cheng Lie softly comforted her: "Whatever decision you make, I believe you have your reasons. Shifei, don’t cry. From now on, you have me."

He only regretted that their conversation now could only happen over the phone, instead of face-to-face.

Otherwise, at this moment, he could’ve soothed her emotions properly.

Cheng Lie truly was so warm and considerate, and Yun Shifei was deeply moved. After all, she had never dared to reveal these thoughts buried in her heart to anyone before, simply out of fear. But because Cheng Lie was the partner who had braved hardships with her in her younger years, she couldn’t help but show her vulnerable side in this moment.

After all, there wasn’t a single embarrassing side of herself that he hadn’t already seen—much less the current her.
