After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 302: Chapter 302: The Little Rabbit Falls into a Trap

Yun Shifei didn’t expect Cheng Lie to even dig this deep.

She chuckled lightly: "Yeah, that’s what he said. He even threatened me. Good thing you're amazing, Cheng Lie.

So smart to find all this out, otherwise I'd be scared to death."

Finally, the truth had been spoken.

But Cheng Lie didn’t feel any joy from her compliments. Instead, his face turned cold, clearly upset.

Yun Shifei’s praises were meant to prevent Cheng Lie from realizing she'd kept him in the dark, hoping to avoid

his anger. Yet, after she finished talking, there was a brief silence—no reply from him.

She instantly realized: Oh no, he’s definitely mad now.

To be honest, she was quite afraid of Cheng Lie being angry. He rarely got angry, but when he did, it felt

extremely serious and intimidating.

"Cheng Lie, are you mad?" She cautiously asked.

"You know I'm mad?" Cheng Lie shot back with a question.

"I'm sorry, | shouldn't have kept it from you..."

Listening to the girl's feeble tone, Cheng Lie could tell she was a bit scared of his anger now.

In that instant, Cheng Lie’s anger dissipated.

Yet, even though he wasn’t angry anymore, he thought it was necessary to teach her a lesson. This kept

happening every time.

Did she really think hiding things from him and keeping him out of it was somehow good for him, avoiding

trouble?

She didn’t understand at all—anything and everything related to her, no matter what it was, he never found it

troublesome.

Yun Shifei didn’t know what to do anymore. Cheng Lie remained silent, and he didn’t hang up the phone either.

This silence suffocated her, making her feel too nervous to say anything.

After waiting for ten seconds, she couldn't bear it and said, "How about | cto your house this weekend and

cook you a meal? Will you forgivethen?"

A moment passed, and over the phone, she heard Cheng Lie say, "Alright."

Yun Shifei instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

Turns out everyone is the same. When she’s upset, she loves eating sweet things to cheer herself up.

And Cheng Lie? Turns out food can comfort him too.

Yun Shifei didn’t realize that Cheng Lie didn’t actually enjoy eating—he simply ate because it was something she

made, something given by her.

On the weekend, just like last time, Yun Shifei woke up bright and early, dragging Cheng Lie to the farmers’

market to buy ingredients before heading to Cheng Lie’s house.

She pored over recipe books and prepared a set of exquisite dishes.

Sweet and sour pork ribs, steamed crucian carp, stir-fried pork slices, sautéed greens, and a seaweed egg soup.

The dishes looked and smelled amazing, showcasing impeccable presentation. Yun Shifei felt her cooking skills

were getting better and better.

Originally, her plan was to apologize, but she noticed that Cheng Lie seemed to already have forgiven her. He

didn’t bring up the previous incident at all, and their interactions felt no different from before.

After finishing the meal, Cheng Lie quietly went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

This touched Yun Shifei’s heart again—Cheng Lie was truly kind, so forgiving, letting go of things so easily.

While washing dishes in the kitchen, Cheng Lie could sense Yun Shifei’s gaze on his back.

At this moment, Yun Shifei must be thinking he’s really thoughtful for forgiving her so easily.

Cheng Lie was an expert at reading people’s minds—especially someone like Yun Shifei, whose emotions were

simple and transparent. He could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her.

After finishing up in the kitchen, Cheng Lie returned to the living room. Yun Shifei looked at him and seriously

asked, "Cheng Lie, was today’s food okay?"

Cheng Lie nodded.

"So... does this mean you’ve forgiven me?"

Cheng Lie glanced at her: "Do you think one meal is enough to earn forgiveness?"

Yun Shifei frowned slightly, clearly not expecting him to still hold a grudge. After a moment, she asked hesitantly,

"Then... what would it take for you to forgive me?"

Cheng Lie met her gaze—the girl's clear, dark eyes perfectly reflected his image.

She was becoming more beautiful. The awkwardness of youth was retreating, leaving her increasingly radiant

and sweet.

His eyes lingered on her lips—although bare of makeup, they were flush with natural color, soft and inviting,

almost tempting one to taste them.

Cheng Lie’s gaze deepened as he looked at Yun Shifei. "Kiss me, and I'll stop being mad."

Yun shifei: "..."

Her cheeks instantly burned. She took two steps back: "Cheng Lie..."

"Didn’t you say we're a couple?"

ME"

"Then why such a big reaction when | ask you to kiss me?"

Yun shifei: "..."

Looking at the boy’s innocent expression, Yun Shifei couldn't help but recall the kiss from last time.

In this kind of situation, Cheng Lie really was bold and straightforward. Despite knowing nothing, he could exude

a teasing playfulness, making such remarks with effortless charm.

Being stared at so intensely, he now looked like a child who didn’t get candy. Yun Shifei thought about what

she'd done earlier—she really did owe Cheng Lie something.

Hmm... Fine, if all he wanted was a kiss, she wasn’t going to lose out anyway. He was so handsome, after all.

With this thought, Yun Shifei leaned in, stood on her tiptoes, and planted a quick kiss on his cheek.

Flushing red, she stepped back two paces and clutched her rapidly beating heart. "Is that enough?"

Cheng Lie nodded.

When she saw him nod in agreement, Yun Shifei quickly retreated, plopping down on the sofa to continue

watching TV.

But could she truly focus on the show? Her mind was entirely occupied with the kiss just now.

After a while, Cheng Lie spoke again:

"| hope, moving forward you'lhpeca

Yun Shifei immediately clarified, "No, | do like you! I'm just... not used to this yet. Givea little more time, and

I'll get better."

Cheng Lie smirked faintly, finding her

Hearing this, Yun Shifei nodded vigorously. She promised herself she would behave this time—no matter what,

she couldn't let Cheng Lie be upset!

Cheng Lie leaned in and placed a soft kiss on the top of her head.

The gesture made Yun Shifei’s body stiffen again.

She took a deep breath. She had to get used to this!

She couldn't always tense up every tCheng Lie touched her, as if she’d never seen the world before.

Maybe next time, she could try kissing his lips.

Yun Shifei thought about the boy’s pale, thin lips—the faint color matching his cold demeanor.

The last the kissed her, she was too flustered to notice any particular feeling. Next time, she'd give it a

proper try.

Yun Shifei mentally applauded her own growing boldness.

After Yun Shifei left, Cheng Lie was about to head to his study to work when his phone rang.

"Cheng Lie, when did you get so close to Wen Lin? The Wen Family plans to invest in our project and even named

you as the project lead," Qin Chi Jin’s voice sounded over the line.
