After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 241: Chapter 241: The Big Shot is Seeking a Relationship

Since he hasn't forgotten her, then why hasn't he contacted her for so long?

Hearing Yun Shifei ask this, Cheng Lie said, "I couldn't contact you."

After pausing, he added in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

"It's fine, you don’t need to apologize to me. As long as you're safe, that’s all that matters."

In that instant, Yun Shifei felt like the two of them were still interacting just like the old days.

The boy in front of her didn’t display the strong, imposing aura he had when she first saw him; he was the same

obedient, quiet boy that made her hands itch to reach out and pat his head.

But then she remembered how clever he was now, and how there might be boundaries between men and

women.

So even though her fingers itched, Yun Shifei refrained from moving her hand.

The two suddenly fell into silence.

Yun Shifei awkwardly picked up the milk tea next to her and started drinking.

Cheng Lie’s gaze landed on her face, watching her seriously sip her milk tea.

When it cto food, Yun Shifei had always been very earnest. In the past, she rarely talked while eating,

quietly focusing on the food in front of her. Even when she was nervous, as long as there was something she

liked to eat, she could instantly relax.

Just like she was doing now.

Cheng Lie’s lips curved slightly; he realized his mood was the lightest it had been in a long time.

Glancing at the table, he moved a piece of mango mille crepe cake in front of Yun Shifei: "I remember you like

mango."

Yun Shifei glanced at Cheng Lie, thinking he really understood her. Just now she had said she was full, but

actually, she wasn’t.

In front of her was an array of beautiful cakes, each one was something she had never tried before—she

desperately wanted to taste them all.

In the past, when she went out with Cheng Lie, this was how it always went. She would order a lot of food, and

whatever she couldn't finish, Cheng Lie would take care of.

Cheng Lie never minded and helped her eat everything.

But now, Cheng Lie was different from before.

Yun Shifei mulled over this thought as she ate.

While lowering her head to eat, she could clearly feel Cheng Lie’s gaze on her—his usual cool and distant eyes

now seemed fixed on her, glued in a way that didn’t waver.

This made her involuntarily tense.

Yet for sreason, she couldn't bring herself to meet his gaze.

Maybe she wasn’t quite used to the "healed" version of him; his presence just felt a little odd now.

Before, when Cheng Lie had autism, wasn’t fond of talking, or liked to ignore people, she could still chat with him

briefly. Whether he listened or not, she treated him as a quiet listener.

But now, knowing he had recovered and becthis remarkable person, Yun Shifei found it difficult to speak

freely with him. She constantly felt like he could see through her innermost thoughts.

Yun Shifei drank a few sips of milk tea and ate a piece of cake, but Cheng Lie—knowing she wanted to try the

others—shifted the remaining cakes to her side.

"You must want to taste them all, right? It's fine, try each one."

Yun Shifei lifted her gaze to look at Cheng Lie and realized he was watching her too.

There was an unfamiliar focus in his once-cold eyes, and within them, she could even see herself reflected.

Yun Shifei’s heart felt as if it were scalded. Quickly, she bowed her head, burying the fluttering emotion into the

act of eating.

After taking a few bites, her nervousness lessened.

Cheng Lie watched her nibble cautiously like a little rabbit, and he couldn't help but let out a small laugh. He had

becnormal, so why was she so scared of him?

"| really can’t eat anymore," Yun Shifei said after tasting several slices. After all, cakes were made of cream, and

they beccloying after a while.

"Then don’t eat anymore," Cheng Lie replied.

As he said that, he took the last piece of cake Yun Shifei had touched, using her fork without hesitation to eat it.

Hie.

He used her fork...

And ate the part of the cake she had eaten!

Before, even though Yun Shifei would let Cheng Lie finish whatever she couldn't eat, she would absolutely never

give him the parts she had eaten.

But now, Cheng Lie—while eating—actually used her fork and tasted the cake she had already had.

Didn't that mean he essentially ate her saliva?!

How was that different from an indirect kiss?

And yet, he showed no sign of disdain whatsoever.

He ate this piece, then started on the next.

Yun Shifei’s heart almost jumped out of her chest. She grabbed his hand and said to him, "Cheng Lie, you're

using the fork | ate with! And besides... besides, the cake | already ate—you can’t just eat it like that."

Yun Shifei was somewhat shocked, but the boy seemed completely oblivious, replying indifferently: "It doesn’t

matter, Shi Fei, | don’t mind."

But | mind! She thought about how Cheng Lie had hugged and kissed her before. Back then, she assumed he

was a child with autism and probably didn’t have any awareness of gender differences.

Now that he was healed, though, if he kept acting this way, wouldn't people think he was skind of pervert?

Yun Shifei realized that even though Cheng Lie was no longer autistic, there were still many things he needed to

learn.

She moved the cake she had eaten to

the side, avoiding having to look at it.

Then she said to Cheng Lie, ‘I told

you before that nes differences

not have taken it in because you were

sick, but now | want to clarify

again—you can't just eat leftovers

from other girls, understand? And

also, using utensils touched by

someone else—what if they're sick

and you end up catching something?"

Then, as an afterthought, she added, "But don’t worry, I'm very healthy. There's no problem with me."

Cheng Lie looked slightly puzzled before responding, "I only eat things from Shi Fei. | wouldn't eat other

people's."

"No, even if it's my food, you still can’t eat it," she said.

"Why not?" he asked.

Yun Shifei was momentarily

tongue-tied, staring at the boyrfiont

of her Ws urdshyskermed

insatlable. After sthought, she

explained, "Only couples can do that."

When Cheng Lie heard this, a hint of amusement flickered through his brows. It felt like he was luring a small

rabbit to jump step by step into the trap he'd set.

Outwardly, he maintained his serious demeanor and asked, "Then shouldn't | just becyour boyfriend?"

Becher boyfriend?

Yun Shifei’s heart, which had already been beating quickly, felt like it was ready to leap out of her chest.

She stared blankly at the handsboy in front of her. A big shot asking to be her boyfriend? She felt like the

world had gone mad!

"Feifei, you've finally cout! Are you alright? You didn’t get hurt, did you?"

Just as Yun Shifei walked out of the private room, Xu Yuejiao hurried over, her hands reaching out to check her

over.

"I'm fine, Sister Jiaojiao," Yun Shifei replied.

"Really? Are you sure? You don’t seem too happy," Xu Yuejiao said worriedly.

As she spoke, she shot Zhao Pan a glare.

Zhao Pan felt unfairly accused—what did this have to do with him? He was just an employee doing his job!
