Reborn: Married to the Demon King

Chapter 254: Chapter 254 Crisis

After making a scene for a while, Qin Yumo never appeared in front of her again.

Yun Shifei breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that her cold attitude toward him was the right approach. She couldn't

let him act so arrogant.

Her life seemed to have returned to calm once more.

She chatted about everyday joys with an influential friend over the phone daily and called Yun Tiancheng two or

three times a week.

She had no idea that the Yun Family was currently in the midst of a crisis.

Of course, Yun Tiancheng didn’t mention any of this to her. He believed that this was a challenge he could bear

alone.

After all, he had weathered many storms before. Shifei had just begun her joyful university life, and he didn’t

want these problems to trouble her.

After hanging up the phone, Yun Tiancheng furrowed his tired brows and returned to the study.

Inside the study, the ashtray was piled high with cigarette butts. He had drunk cup after cup of coffee and hadn't

had a good night's sleep for several days.

Previously, the goods meant to go to the northern region were now entirely backed up and couldn't be

processed, resulting in losses.

He'd already lost hundreds of thousands. If this continued, he feared he wouldn't even be able to pay his

workers’ salaries.

It was like facing an inexplicable crisis—something that should never have happened—and the suddenness of it

left him completely unprepared.

The more Yun Tiancheng thought about it, the less sense it made.

But no matter how illogical it seemed, the reality was right before his eyes. What should he do?

Yun Tiancheng lit another cigarette and started smoking again.

"Woof!" At this moment, a bark cfrom the door; it was Baby, seemingly trying to tell Yun Tiancheng to stop

smoking.

Yun Tiancheng snapped back to his senses and smiled at it. "Baby, chere."

Baby wagged its tail and walked over. He stroked its soft fur and said, "What should we do? | might not even be

able to afford to take care of you soon."

It was as if Baby understood his words. It went outside, grabbed its bowl, and brought it back inside. In the bow!

was leftover dog food from lunch. It pointed at the food with its paw and let out a soft whine, as if to say, "From

now on, this much is enough for me."

Yun Tiancheng had never seen such a perceptive dog. He couldn’t help but pat its head. "Look at you—are you

about to turn into a spirit being or something?"

One had to admit, dogs were truly comforting. His previously heavy and sorrowful mood suddenly felt a bit

lighter because of Baby.

News of Yun Tiancheng’s company being in crisis quickly spread around the neighborhood.

Xu Ya found out as well.

After work, she went straight to Yun Tiancheng’s company to find him. It was already past seven in the evening,

yet Yun Tiancheng showed no intention of leaving the office.

The atmosphere among the employees at the company was no longer as lively as it used to be. Everyone felt a

heavy solemnity in the air.

Everyone understood: if this storm couldn't be weathered, unemployment lay ahead.

"Tiancheng, are you alright?" Xu Ya asked Yun Tiancheng.

"I'm fine. | can handle it," Yun Tiancheng said as he reached for another cigarette.

Xu Ya stopped him. "Look at you! You're already reeking of smoke—are you still going to smoke more?"

She furrowed her brows slightly.

After Yun Shifei left for college in Beijing, Xu Ya hadn't moved into the Yun Family hto live with Yun

Tiancheng; instead, she remained in her own apartment in the neighborhood.

However, their relationship had grown noticeably closer. Yet, she didn’t know Yun Tiancheng was facing such a

dire situation these days, and he hadn't even told her about it.

"Smoking makesfeel a little better."

Seeing Yun Tiancheng with his deeply troubled expression, Xu Ya—who had known him for years—felt this was

the first tshe had seen him look so defeated when it cto his business.

In the past, even during the harshest times of their early startup days, Yun Tiancheng'’s face often wore a smile.

It was only later, after Yun Shifei had been kidnapped, that he began to show such an expression frequently...

This clearly indicated that things had reached a serious point now.

But Xu Ya didn’t want Yun Tiancheng to keep agonizing like this. If the problems weren't solved, his health might

break down instead.

She suggested to Yun Tiancheng, "Let's go home. I'll cook something for you."

It had been a long tsince she'd last cooked for him.

This time, Yun Tiancheng didn’t refuse. He knew he had already done all he could that day. He had made

countless calls, but no one was willing to cooperate with him. What else could he do?

The Yun Family.

Xu Ya prepared a few dishes.

A plate of greens, braised pork ribs, and a bowl of seaweed egg drop soup.

Two people, three simple dishes—but the atmosphere was incredibly warm.

It had been a long tsince Yun Tiancheng had eaten anything Xu Ya cooked. He silently ate the food.

Xu Ya sat across from Yun Tiancheng, continuously piling food into his bowl.

"Eat more, alright? | haven't seen you in just a few days, and you've already gotten thinner," she said with

concern and heartache in her tone.

Yun Tiancheng glanced at Xu Ya but didn’t say anything. He quietly continued eating.

He hadn’t been eating properly during this time, that much was true.

Seeing how much he was enjoying the food, Xu Ya smiled gently. "How's my cooking? Not bad, right? Worst case

scenario, we can always open a restaurant together someday—we won't starve."

Hearing Xu Ya’s lighthearted tone, Yun Tiancheng couldn't help but feel his mood lift as well.

"True. Even if the sky falls, we can always rebuild from scratch. There's nothing to fear," he said.

"Exactly. | believe it won't ever get to the point where things are truly hopeless."

At this point, Yun Sisi also found out about Yun Tiancheng’s predicament.

This cabout because Yun Tiancheng had reached out to Song Yang's parents, and Song Yang had relayed the

news to Yun Sisi.

At that moment, Yun Sisi almost wanted to laugh. Wasn't this karma in its truest form?

The man who had been so heartless in driving her out of the house was now finally facing retribution, wasn’t he?

When that tcomes, not only will he lose everything, but he'll also be burdened with a mountain of debt.

Suddenly, she felt a sense of relief.

Thankfully, Yun Tiancheng had m

she Would've been burdened with

Going from a rich family’s daughter to a pauper was one thing, but ending up with negative assets? How would

she even survive?

"So, does Yun Shifei know about this?" Yun Sisi asked.

Song Yang shook his head. "Uncle Yun said not to tell her—otherwise, she'd worry."

A father’s love runs deep, doesn’t it?

Yun Sisi scoffed coldly.

Her life had been ruined by Yun Shifei, yet Yun Shifei got to live carefree and happy in Beijing?

With her looks, of course Yun Shifei would have an easy life.

And as for her, even though she had

If it hadn’t been for Yun Shifei, none of this would've happened.

The more Yun Sisi thought about it, the angrier she became.

"Song Yang, do you know Yun Shifei’s school phone number? | want to call her. Her father is facing such a huge

crisis; she has to be informed."

Song Yang frowned slightly. "Is that really a good idea? Uncle Yun specifically told us not to tell her."

"What's wrong with it?" Yun Sisi

frowned. "If she doesn’t know-neyy

That seemed to make ssense...

"I'll try asking around."

"Now that’s more like it. We're doing her a favor; we can’t let her stay in the dark like a fool."

Listening to Yun Sisi’s reasoning, Song Yang felt like it actually sounded reasonable.

After all, if his own parents were on the brink of bankruptcy and didn’t tell him, he’d be furious too.

However, thinking about Yun Shifei’s future, Song Yang frowned in concern, feeling a profound sympathy for her.
