After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 355: Chapter 355: Not Afraid Anymore?

That evening, Cheng Lie had the best sleep he’d had in ages.

Yun Shifei didn’t wake him up, letting him hold her just like that.

Feeling his breath and his warm embrace, she couldn’t help but think about the road ahead for the two of them.

Cheng Lie probably already knew that their breakup was because of Mu Chengzhu. Though he had been suppressing Mu Chengzhu, Mu Chengzhu might not be able to retaliate in the short term, but over time, this issue would surely escalate.

If Mu Chengzhu found out someday that Cheng Lie was behind it, would he take revenge?

The thought alone made Yun Shifei uneasy.

By nature, she was indecisive, and now she felt even more anxious.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have broken up with Cheng Lie so abruptly back then.

But now, she realized that facing difficulties together didn’t seem so bad after all.

If she wasn’t with Cheng Lie, would Mu Chengzhu stop using despicable tactics? No, in fact, he might even resort to worse tricks.

Unable to resist, Yun Shifei reached out to smooth Cheng Lie’s hair. Though he seemed so strong, deep down, he had his fragile side, and she felt it was her responsibility to protect him.

When Cheng Lie woke up, he realized he had fallen asleep without meaning to. Seeing him awake, Yun Shifei asked, "Did you sleep well?"

Sleeping on the sofa was nowhere near as comfortable as sleeping in bed.

Cheng Lie murmured softly, then let go of Yun Shifei.

Yun Shifei stood up, poured him a glass of water, and handed it to him to refresh himself.

The room’s décor still looked the way it did the first time she visited, but the refrigerator was different.

Just moments ago, she had intentionally peeked into the fridge and found it practically empty, which clearly showed that Cheng Lie had not been eating properly during this time.

After drinking the water, Cheng Lie sensed a shift in the atmosphere. Looking up, he found Yun Shifei glaring at him with dissatisfaction.

"You haven’t been eating properly. Even if you don’t like eating, you should at least care about your health."
