After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King-Chapter 444 The Villain

Hearing Yun Sisi’s blatant threat, Yun Shifei couldn’t help but shake her head.

She could probably confirm the reasons behind Yun Sisi’s changes now.

Yun Sisi saw Yun Shifei’s silent and speechless expression and assumed she was scared.

So, she became even happier.

"It’s good that you know fear. If you voluntarily give up everything you have now and go back to the position that originally belonged to you, I can let bygones be bygones and forgive you."

But despite all that she said, the girl in front of her simply responded with a faint "Oh."

"So you already knew Dad was sick, didn’t you?"

Yun Sisi snorted lightly, as though it was a matter of course.

Yun Shifei looked at Yun Sisi, pursed her lips, and turned to leave.

Since Yun Sisi, like Mu Chengzhu, retained the memories of their past lives, they both remembered the wrongdoings they had committed in that lifetime—they made mistakes, killed her—and yet in this life, why did they have the audacity to act so brazenly?

She had taken leave to return to South City this time not only to understand Yun Tiancheng’s illness but also to settle things with these two.

Thinking about this, Yun Shifei looked up at the sky.

The azure sky was a beautiful color, a sight that made one feel filled with hope at just one glance.

She hoped Yun Tiancheng’s illness could be cured as well.

Since Yun Sisi remembered Yun Tiancheng’s illness, it must’ve been quite severe. Yun Shifei had already mentally prepared herself.

Two days later, the test results for Yun Tiancheng’s illness came back. It was confirmed to be malignant, so South City’s most famous expert was invited for the surgery.

The operation was very successful as well.

Yun Shifei and Xu Ya both breathed sighs of relief.

The doctors all marveled at Yun Tiancheng’s luck—being able to detect the issue so early and having the tumor removed in time to prevent cancerous cells from spreading.

On the day Yun Tiancheng finished his surgery, Yun Sisi also came by.

As the person who had urged Yun Tiancheng to go to the hospital for a check-up, Xu Ya couldn’t possibly chase Yun Sisi away. Yun Tiancheng’s feelings toward Yun Sisi seemed somewhat complex.

In the past, he believed Yun Sisi had hurt Yun Shifei and stopped considering her his daughter.

But now, Yun Sisi had, to some extent, saved his life—his attitude towards her couldn’t remain as ruthless as before.

"Dad, I personally made this medicinal porridge—it’s really good for the body. Try it," Yun Sisi said as she brought the porridge, stepping in just as it was time for lunch.

Yun Tiancheng replied, "There’s no need for that. We can prepare our own meals."

"That won’t do," Yun Sisi said with a cheerful smile, pretending not to notice the resistance on Yun Tiancheng’s face.

The more they rejected her, the more determined she was to make them accept her.

After all, she was supposed to be their beloved daughter—it was all because Yun Shifei had played her little tricks.

With this in mind, Yun Sisi couldn’t help but glare at Yun Shifei.

The things that belonged to her in her previous life—she would reclaim them all in this life.

Yun Shifei felt the resentment emanating from Yun Sisi and thought to herself, truly malicious people never seemed to realize what they had done wrong.

Yun Sisi believed that she wasn’t at fault, thinking Yun Shifei was too vicious and had stolen her possessions?

Yun Shifei met Yun Sisi’s gaze and curved her lips into a smile.

Seeing Yun Shifei’s smile, Yun Sisi froze.

She could still smile? Fine, after today, let’s see if she can still laugh.

That day, Yun Shifei stayed with Yun Tiancheng for a long time at the hospital, and Yun Tiancheng spoke to her about some peculiarities regarding Yun Sisi.

Because of her, the Mu Family was now thriving—once suppressed, they were on the verge of becoming South City’s leading family.

Both of them had memories of their past lives; for them to rise like this wasn’t surprising to Yun Shifei.

The blame lay with her own incompetence—despite being reborn, it seemed there were many things she didn’t know. Perhaps it was because she had died so early in her previous life.

Remembering the last period of her past life, Yun Shifei dropped her gaze, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Finally, she could only tell Yun Tiancheng to be cautious of Yun Sisi and Mu Chengzhu.

She could see it clearly—although Yun Tiancheng owed his life to Yun Sisi, his attitude towards her was merely more polite than before. He still wouldn’t treat her as his daughter.

This realization brought Yun Shifei some comfort.

At the same time, she felt fear—if Yun Sisi became angry and embarrassed, would she harm Yun Tiancheng?

With Yun Sisi’s personality, it was entirely possible she might do something unpredictable.

That night, Yun Shifei was alone at home.

Xu Ya was accompanying Yun Tiancheng in the hospital room.

While staying alone in the empty house, Yun Shifei often called Cheng Lie.

She curled up under the blanket, her baby curled up beside her. As she chatted with Cheng Lie on the phone, drowsiness began to take over and she felt herself gradually drift toward sleep.

At that moment, the doorbell downstairs suddenly rang.

Yun Shifei was startled.

On the other end of the call, Cheng Lie also heard the doorbell. He frowned and asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Someone’s ringing our doorbell," Yun Shifei said in a hushed voice, suddenly feeling a little scared.

It was the middle of the night—who would press the doorbell instead of sleeping?

Cheng Lie could sense Yun Shifei’s fear. He pressed his lips together and reassured her, "Don’t worry, the house is very safe."

He knew Yun Shifei’s house had a highly secure anti-theft system. Without a key, the door couldn’t be opened.

Yun Shifei murmured an acknowledgment, but the doorbell continued ringing persistently, as if the person wouldn’t leave unless she went down to open the door.

She had never seen anyone so bold—could the person outside be drunk?

It was possible, after all, there had been times when neighbors who were drunk had rung their doorbell by mistake.

The persistent doorbell echoed throughout the empty room.

After hesitating for a while, Yun Shifei told Cheng Lie she was going to hang up the call.

Cheng Lie, meanwhile, had someone dispatched to check on Yun Shifei’s residence.

Outside the door, Mu Chengzhu stood there, pressing the doorbell over and over again.

He did indeed look like he was drunk.

But no matter how much he pressed, no one came out.

Was she scared?

Mu Chengzhu thought about the fact that Yun Shifei was home alone at this hour and, knowing how timid she was, figured she was truly afraid.

This made him decide to wait—once she couldn’t help but come downstairs and saw it was him, she would surely open the door. After all, he wasn’t some bad guy.

But instead of waiting for her, he ended up waiting for several police officers.

"We received a report about someone pressing doorbells late at night—is that you?"

Mu Chengzhu: "..."

"Sir, please show us your identification."

Mu Chengzhu: "..."

By now, he was utterly dumbfounded.

Not far away, hidden in the shadows, Yun Sisi—who had initially planned to take photos—was equally stunned.

She had planned to capture images of Yun Shifei and Mu Chengzhu together to send to Cheng Lie, but she hadn’t expected Yun Shifei not to come out and instead call the police!

How could she continue taking photos now?

Mu Chengzhu, sobered up for the most part by this point, cooperated obediently with the police investigation, explaining that he’d drunk too much and gone to the wrong door.

The police didn’t find anything suspicious about him and delivered a stern dressing-down before letting him go.
