After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 348: Chapter 348: How Heavy the Cost

Cheng Lie didn’t rush to speak; instead, he fixed his gaze on Yun Shifei.

The two simply stared at each other like that.

She didn’t open her mouth, and Cheng Lie also didn’t say a word.

Under Cheng Lie’s intense gaze, Yun Shifei gradually began to feel guilty.

She didn’t even dare look at him anymore.

When Cheng Lie was silent, his cold demeanor was actually somewhat intimidating.

"It’s tasty."

Soon, she heard Cheng Lie’s crisp voice ring out.

Yun Shifei lifted her head to look at Cheng Lie.

Cheng Lie had already turned away, ignoring her.

But even though he was acting so aloof, Yun Shifei felt a small flutter of joy inside and said, "That’s good. I was afraid you wouldn’t like it."

It felt as though they had returned to the past, their interactions seeming so natural. Only Yun Shifei knew that it wasn’t possible for them to go back so quickly.

After all, she had brought up the breakup. There was still a slight barrier between them, but she believed she could work hard to dissolve that barrier.

Meanwhile, Cheng Lie’s gaze fell on the textbook in front of him. Though he appeared to be seriously reading, certain thoughts suddenly surfaced in his mind.

He now understood how to make her love him even more.

The feeling of losing someone and then regaining them—if it happened instantly, she wouldn’t truly grasp what it meant to lose.

It had to be a slow process, making her realize the devastating consequences of saying the word "breakup." Then, when they reconciled, she wouldn’t dare suggest breaking up so easily again.

To this day, he still hadn’t been able to figure out how her decision to break up was connected to Mu Chengzhu, if at all.
