After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 365: Chapter 365: Uniquely Yours

In truth, Cheng Lie was also afraid—afraid that he wouldn’t be able to be with Yun Shifei.

He knew he was deeply flawed, that the many years of darkness had shaped his soul into something shadowed. The bright corner of his heart—it was her who had illuminated it.

Beyond her, there was nothing else.

Just now, hearing her speak with a trace of caution on the phone, he wondered: Was it because of him that Yun Tiancheng was making things difficult for her?

Suddenly, Cheng Lie felt an ache in his heart.

She was so beautiful, so clever, so gentle. So many boys liked her. Any man would surely be better than him.

But she liked him. In the past, when he wasn’t seen favorably, she was the one who would fiercely defend him.

Now, even as he still couldn’t escape those shadows of the past, she continued to speak up for him.

Cheng Lie suddenly felt a pang of sorrow.

So, he had to work harder, to one day provide her with a better life.

Three days later, after finishing the work on hand, Cheng Lie boarded a plane to South City.

Zhao Pan came along as well, taking the opportunity to share some recent updates about Mu Chengzhu with Cheng Lie.

"It seems Mu Chengzhu has set up a new tech company outside of South City, focused on similar internet research," Zhao Pan said, handing over related company information for Cheng Lie to review.

Cheng Lie glanced at the documents and immediately understood that Mu Chengzhu’s research direction was remarkably similar to his own.

He had hired many students majoring in computer science and was constructing a website.

In terms of precision-focused areas, there wasn’t much information visible yet on his side.

Upon landing, Cheng Lie checked into the hotel Zhao Pan had booked for him.

Only then did he call Yun Shifei to inform her that he had arrived.

Yun Shifei was instantly thrilled. "At the airport? I’ll come pick you up."

"I’m already at the hotel," Cheng Lie replied. "Could you ask Uncle Yun if we’re meeting at the hotel?"
