My beautiful CEO wife
Chapter 1891: Seeking Rebirth!
That night, Xiao Zheng and the others stayed inside Tianxie Manor.
Xiao Zheng lay on the bed, but sleep just wouldn’t come.
His mind kept turning over everything related to the Demon God Sect. This force that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere made him incredibly curious—after all, he himself had once received the God of Death’s legacy.
And now, a Demon God Sect suddenly pops up; Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but be very interested.
"I really didn’t expect that behind Liu Wufeng, there’d be such a deep and hidden power."
"I wonder when I’ll run into people from the Demon God Sect again."
Xiao Zheng calculated in his heart, faintly holding a trace of anticipation.
He grew more and more excited the more he thought about it, so he simply gave up on sleeping, sat cross-legged on the bed, and started cultivating...
Xiao Zheng then spent the whole night in cultivation.
When he opened his eyes, it was already daylight outside.
After washing up, Xiao Zheng headed to the dining room.
Long Qie and the others were up even earlier than him; they were already sitting in the dining room having breakfast. When they saw Xiao Zheng appear, they all greeted him one after another.
"Why are you all up so early?"
Xiao Zheng asked with a smile.
At his words, Long Qie sighed and said, "Can’t help it, I’m not used to the bed. I tossed and turned for half the night and never fell asleep, so in the end I just gave up on sleeping." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"I’m fine. I’m used to getting up early," Evil Eyes said with a smile.
Xiao Zheng took a bowl of congee from a servant and sat down beside them.
Once he sat, Long Qie seemed to remember something and said, "Oh right, Mr. Xiao. Mo Ye was just here. He told me he’s already passed on your orders."
"Oh? That fast? Did the Demon Sect down below have any reaction?" Xiao Zheng asked.
Long Qie nodded and said, "The reaction was pretty big, but it doesn’t matter. Even Liu Wufeng is already dead; the rest are just small fry. We can clean them up easily."
"Then let’s just ignore them for now and eat," Xiao Zheng said.
The four of them then focused on eating their breakfast.
After they’d finished, Mo Ye came to Xiao Zheng, a bit excited: "Mr. Xiao! Miss has woken up! She looks much better now and says she wants to see you!"
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng felt a flicker of pleasant surprise.
He didn’t linger and turned to leave with Mo Ye.
When he entered Liu Yiyi’s boudoir, Xiao Zheng saw Liu Yiyi leaning against the headboard. She had indeed woken up, and her complexion looked much better than yesterday; at the very least her eyes no longer looked so utterly despairing.
"You’re awake."
Xiao Zheng broke the silence with a smile.
Liu Yiyi turned to look at him, her gaze slightly complicated. In the end she nodded lightly and said in a soft voice, "Xiao... Brother Xiao, good morning."
Hearing her call him Brother Xiao again, Xiao Zheng finally let out a breath of relief and said, "How does your body feel now? Any better? Do you want me to have the servants bring you breakfast?"
At this, Liu Yiyi shook her head and said, "Brother Xiao, no need. I can’t eat anything right now."
Xiao Zheng didn’t press the matter. He nodded and said, "You don’t have to be too sad. At least this whole thing means you can finally be completely free. You don’t have to live every day in fear anymore. You can live freely under this vast blue sky."
"Free, huh... but the price for this freedom is just too tragic." Liu Yiyi’s face showed a hint of misery as she said, "I never would have thought that the father who treated me so well on the surface was actually always thinking about killing me."
"In his eyes, am I really not as important as those empty titles?"
As she spoke, her tears fell from her cheeks like a broken string of pearls.
Mo Ye stood at the door, his heart aching.
Xiao Zheng sighed and said, "Maybe. In his eyes, you weren’t as important as those titles. But at least in this world, there are still people who love you. You can move somewhere else and start over, completely say goodbye to your old self."
"You deserve a better life."
"You can run without worry, laugh without restraint. Sing if you want to sing, sleep if you want to sleep. There really are a lot of beautiful things in this world."
At his words, Liu Yiyi sniffled and choked out, "But... but I don’t have any family anymore."
"Who said you don’t have family? From now on, we’re all your family." Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "You already call me big brother—are you still treating me like an outsider?"
"And me!" No one knew where Mo Ye suddenly got the courage. He clenched his fist and said, "I’ll stay with you for the rest of my life!"
When he finished saying this, a faint blush actually appeared on his normally cold face.
Xiao Zheng found it funny but didn’t say anything.
Liu Yiyi finally stopped crying, and a hint of a smile appeared on her face. Though the smile still looked a bit forced, at least she had genuinely let go a little.
As for the rest of those painful memories, they could only be slowly healed as time passed.
At this moment Xiao Zheng said, "Right now, it’s actually not suitable for you two to stay in the country. Why don’t you go back to Europe? You’ve always lived there anyway. As long as I’m free, I’ll go visit you often."
Neither of them objected to his suggestion.
Liu Yiyi wanted to say goodbye to the past, so naturally she wanted a new environment. And Mo Ye just wanted to accompany Liu Yiyi for a lifetime; no matter where she went, he would choose to follow.
It was just that there was still one difficult problem waiting for them to solve.
That was how to remove the hidden danger in Liu Yiyi’s body.
The Profound Yin Body would flare up from time to time, and it was getting more and more serious. If it wasn’t dealt with soon, the next flare-up would directly endanger Liu Yiyi’s life.
At this thought, all three of them felt a weight settle in their hearts.
In the end, it was Xiao Zheng who broke the silence, saying, "Don’t panic. There’s always a way to solve things. I’ve already sent people to investigate everything about the Profound Yin Body. We should be able to find a cure soon."
"Yiyi, I promise you—I will definitely cure you."
Hearing this, Liu Yiyi nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Xiao. But even if we can’t find a cure, it’s actually okay. I’ve already come to terms with life and death."
"I just want to move somewhere else now and start a new life, completely say goodbye to the past."
Seeing the fragility she revealed in that moment, Xiao Zheng and Mo Ye exchanged a glance, both unable to help sighing inwardly.
