After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King-Chapter 434 Farewell

Old Mrs. Meng increasingly found Yun Shifei pleasant to look at and asked about her family background, and what she was currently doing.

Upon learning that she was a university student, Old Mrs. Meng was even happier.

Although the girl’s family background was ordinary, her appearance and character were good, and she was well-educated, so Old Mrs. Meng was still very satisfied with Yun Shifei.

Of course, most importantly, seeing her always reminded her of Ah Zhao; when Ah Zhao left them back then, she seemed to be about the same age as Yun Shifei.

If only they hadn’t stopped her from being with that man at the time.

Thinking about it now, Old Mrs. Meng felt a pang in her heart.

After chatting for a while, Cheng Lie noticed that Yun Shifei seemed a bit uncomfortable, so he said to Elder Meng and Old Mrs. Meng, "Grandpa, Grandma, I have something else to do, I’ll be leaving first."

"So soon?" Both Elder Meng and Old Mrs. Meng were a bit reluctant, but seeing Yun Shifei’s demeanor, they understood that the young lady might be a bit shy on her first visit.

They got up to see Cheng Lie and Yun Shifei off, but Cheng Lie said to them, "No need to send us off, we can walk out ourselves."

He had visited the Meng Family several times before, and this time shouldn’t be any different.

Elder Meng and Old Mrs. Meng exchanged a glance and then said to Cheng Lie, "We originally planned to have you stay for a meal."

Cheng Lie smiled, "Next time then."

Saying this, he took Yun Shifei’s hand and turned to leave.

Watching their figures, with the tall man and petite woman walking together, they seemed well-matched.

Elder Meng looked at Old Mrs. Meng, "What do you think of the girl Xiao Lie has found?"

Old Mrs. Meng could sense that Elder Meng was somewhat dissatisfied.

She shook her head, "You always look down upon people’s origins, but I think they’re quite well-suited. Two young people liking each other is already quite rare."

Isn’t it nice to like each other like this? What more do you need to ask for?

Old Mrs. Meng thought they mustn’t repeat past mistakes and become the villains again.

Of course, it wouldn’t be possible to become villains this time.

After all, although Cheng Lie was related by blood, they hadn’t seen each other in so long; what right did they have to manage him?

Holding Yun Shifei’s hand, Cheng Lie sensed her displeasure and looked down at her, "Not happy seeing her unpunished?"

Hearing Cheng Lie’s words, Yun Shifei snorted, "Yes."

She didn’t deny it.

She had finally mustered the courage to come over, wanting to deal with Xia Yuezhen, but unexpectedly, Cheng Lie let her off so lightly.

Cheng Lie’s thin lips curved slightly, as he leaned to whisper in her ear, "Do you want to see a show then?"

Yun Shifei looked up at Cheng Lie.

Seeing her eager expression, Cheng Lie suddenly felt that Yun Shifei looked particularly adorable that way.

He reached out to ruffle her hair, "Wait and see."

They arrived at the living room, where Meng Xun and his wife, as well as Meng Huan, were present, except Meng Jie and Xia Yuezhen.

"Uncle, Aunt, Shi Fei and I are leaving first."

"Oh, won’t you stay for a meal?" Meng Xun’s wife asked.

"No, thanks." Cheng Lie replied, seemingly scanning them casually, before nonchalantly asking, "By the way, where are Uncle and Aunt-in-law?"

As soon as Cheng Lie asked, Meng Xun’s face darkened instantly.

This Meng Jie, not only idle every day, but he also ran out during such an occasion.

As for Xia Yuezhen, usually her figure was seen often, but at this moment, she went upstairs and hasn’t come down yet.

It’s truly disgraceful.

Meng Xun felt a lot of dissatisfaction towards these two people.

For people like them to have the elders give all their assets, Meng Xun thought, was truly unreliable.

"Your aunt-in-law is upstairs, I’ll go call her." Meng Huan said, and with that, she headed upstairs.

Cheng Lie quickly said, "No need, just wanted to say goodbye as we’re leaving."

Such a polite kid, Meng Xun thought, looking at Cheng Lie, this child of his sister, only reuniting after so many years.

Meng Xun had a complex feeling inside.

He had done some investigation on Cheng Lie, aware that he worked under Qin Chi Jin, developing a lot of high-tech products, a capable young man.

Meng Xun himself was a successful person, naturally inclined to favor those with ambition.

This nephew, although appearing cold and distant, was successful in his career and had a good relationship with his partner.

Meng Xun glanced at the hands they were holding.

Secretly nodding, he thought perhaps Cheng Lie had the potential to be molded.

Yun Shifei also sensed the elders’ gaze on Cheng Lie, like he was a clever, obedient child; who wouldn’t like such a kid?

Thinking back, she was once deceived by his obedient exterior, too.

Now, thinking it over... Yun Shifei realized Cheng Lie still had some way to go with being obedient.

Meng Huan went upstairs, knocking on the door, and after a while, Xia Yuezhen came to answer, asking, "Ah Huan, what’s up?"

"Xiao Lie is leaving, and he wanted to say goodbye to you."

Goodbye? Cheng Lie came over every day, and she accompanied him; unexpectedly today when he left, he wanted to say goodbye.

Isn’t it possible to meet again tomorrow?

Why at this moment say goodbye, especially right after she got a slap from Meng Jie.

Her face was still red and swollen, barely concealed with powder applied hastily earlier, so it wasn’t too obvious now.

But she didn’t want to go downstairs.

"I see you’re not doing anything in the room... just come down." Meng Huan said.

Hearing Meng Huan’s words, Xia Yuezhen thought of Meng Xun and his wife downstairs.

In this household, it seemed Elder Meng was in charge, but actually, as the eldest son, Meng Xun had quite the aura of a family head.

Back then, when they coveted Elder Meng’s assets, Meng Xun proactively said he didn’t want them himself.

She knew it wouldn’t be wise to offend Meng Xun.

For the sake of money, she couldn’t let Meng Xun be displeased with her.

So she said, "Alright, let’s go."

Anyway, it was just saying goodbye to Cheng Lie, once done, she’d pretend to feel unwell and come back up.

Xia Yuezhen calculated well, following Meng Huan downstairs, and upon descending, she saw Cheng Lie with Yun Shifei.

Standing together, this young couple looked remarkably dazzling.

So young and so attractive.

With what seemed like a promising future.

Seeing Xia Yuezhen descend, Yun Shifei cast her a glance of contempt.

Cheng Lie sensed Yun Shifei’s anger, smiling.

He thought, she seemed angrier than he, the person involved, was.

Her temper was rarely concealed, but she would try to restrain it.

Yet now she wasn’t restraining it, Cheng Lie knew she was utterly furious.
