Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

100 Wedding anniversary banquet arc (15) : No sense of judgment



Ai immediately disappeared after the dance was done. She didn’t glance left or right and straight away headed outside. She understood it was rude after Nana had urged her to stay until the end.

But watching Jun and Shui dance unsettled her. His family cheering him on rattled her heart. She wished to leave this place as soon as possible.

Though a certain someone didn’t want her to.

Ai’s phone vibrated with a message.

‘You better not leave. Wait for me.’

It was a message from Jun. Even through his message, she could sense a bit of hostility from it.

Is it because I meddled in his business?

She turned and glanced at the Liu villa once, unsure of what to do.

“Alright. Target secured,” Xing Bi mumbled to herself watching Yunru step out of the washroom.

I will go to him, explain the situation and happy ending for all! She nodded to herself..

Xing Bi stepped out from behind a pillar. Another figure was observing her with great animosity, who was none other than Nian.

Fucking brat! You hardly got any wings and you want to already snatch my prey? Wait till I drown your head in the fountain!

“Achoo!”

Yunru rubbed the tip of his nose.

Who is complimenting this young master?

Xing Bi was a few steps away from him and extended her arm to touch his shoulder.

“Hey, you.”

She froze. She turned and at the same time, Yunru turned too. “Oh, Uncle Jing!”

Nian almost stumbled back.

What the hell? Why is Uncle suddenly here!?

Then he noticed his dear Uncle Yukito stepping out of a room too, adjusting his clothes.

Shit, they were making out in this room!?

Jing approached Xing Bi with black clouds forming all over his head. “This…this is the dress that I have designed,” his gaze traveled up and down. “How are you wearing it?”

Xing Bi wanted the earth to swallow her.

Yunru furrowed his brows. “Huh. I don’t understand.”

He pointed at her. “This is my dress! I made this dress! How the hell is she wearing it? I don’t know her. I never gave it to her! You thief!”

Her jaw dropped. “I am not a thief!”

“Liar! Then tell me, where did you get this dress? No, wait. First tell me. Who are you?”

Her mouth twitched.

Jing gasped. “You don’t have an invitation, do you?”

“No, no. I can explain-“

“How dare you? You break into this banquet and even steal my dress! Some nerve you have!”

“I didn’t steal it! Your servant gave it to me!”

“As if a servant would dare to hand a stranger my precious creation!” He flared his nostrils. “Well then who is this servant you speak of? Bring him to me!”

Jun tilted his head and stared at Yating standing before him. It was a shock to see him at the banquet, especially when he knew that Yating wasn’t here in his past life. Yating was never a part of any banquets held by the Liu family.

So how and why was he here this time?

After being reborn, the first thing Jun did was break up with Shui. The second thing on his list was to get all the information on Gu Yating, who was behind Sky’s downfall.

This is news…He is Gu Rong’s son?

The revelation had taken him by surprise slightly. To him, Yating was always just a normal editor working in Dream High. He never made the connection that he was the young master of the Gu family.

Jun wasn’t the type to involve himself with other rich families. He surely knew Gu Rong had a son but not that he was none other than Yating.

Seems like someone else is hiding his real identity just like me, he cocked his brow.

They now faced each other in silence, standing on a balcony.

“I am in a really bad mood right now. So don’t waste my time,” Jun showed no expression, but his voice carried a dark weight.

Yating took a step forward and icily retorted. “We will talk as long as I want, Sky CEO Mr. Liu.”

Jun’s expression still didn’t crack. Instead, questions arose in his mind.

He wasn’t supposed to find this out until five years later. Then what changed?

“MissImperfectlyFine. I see you going to great lengths to defame her,” Yating’s cold countenance matched Jun’s. It was as if there was a competition as to who could freeze the place first.

“Oh. That’s how it is,” Jun smiled. “The Chief Editor came here himself to defend a cheater writer?”

Yating was unfazed. “The problem doesn’t lie if she is a cheater or not. It lies in your eyes. Have you read her books?”

He said nothing.

“I assume you have. Your silence says so. Anybody with good judgment will not ignore her work. If you have read her books, then I question how you are exactly running a publishing company if you couldn’t even judge what kind of a writer she is?”

That managed to irk Jun.

“Do you seriously think a person like her can plagiarise? That’s why I told you. The problem is in your eyes. You have read her books, yet you don’t understand her at all. You saved her from falling that day after the event, and now you are the only one who is pushing her into the pits whether she doesn’t deserve to be.”

He silently clenched his fist.

Realizing that Jun was the same man who caught Ai in time that day brought a bitter feeling in his heart. It might be just a coincidence, yet he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Jun gave a frightening smile and took a murderous step forward himself. “I thought I understood her. I really thought I did.”

The time at the signing event and his meeting with MissImperfectlyFine, her words, her protecting Yinyin and her funny post script notes – everything made him feel that he had come to know her better.

“But you know what, Chief Editor? If I know MissImperfectlyFine, then I also know the person behind the story who your favorite author cheated on.”
