Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu-Chapter 23 The Twins’ Trial Of Judgment
Chapter 23 The Twins' Trial Of Judgment
Jun glanced at the direction she was looking. He still hadn't decided upon it. He liked CherryBlossom's books, but the real reason to go was if MissImperfectlyFine would have been there.
She was an interesting figure, always shrouded in mystery. Even in his past life, Jun had an impression of her. There were flaws in her writing and the endings were terrible for a man like him who didn't tolerate such.
Yet there was something in those words she wrote that kept him attached to her in a strange way. Which was why he could never throw her books away.
There was an inkling to see just who that person was. Then there was the incident which would happen where she would be accused of ruining CherryBlossom's books.
"...I want to witness it," he murmured.
Ai blinked. "What?"
Then it suddenly hit her the error she made. If Jun met her at the event, wouldn't he realize that she was MissImperfectlyFine?
She bit her lip.
I really shouldn't have told him I am a writer.
"Yes," he replied.
Her brow twitched.
So he will be coming.
He sneered. "I would like to see just who MissImperfectlyFine is."
"..."
"Then I would have a nice long conversation with her about how her wonderful stories bother me so much."
"..."
"But she isn't part of the event," Ai was calm. Or at least tried to be. smirked. "Something tells me she would be there."
Ai took a silent breath.
"Will you be going? Are you CherryBlossom's fan?"
She stiffened. "...I like her books. But I won't be going."
"So you won't be stalking me like you do here."
"..."
"It's an observation," she defended.
"Without my permission," he retorted.
She thought about it.
"I am sorry. I wouldn't like it if somebody secretly keeps a watch over me either."
Jun was slightly startled. "You are quick to-"
"That's why I would formally request you to accept my observation."
"..."
"Rejected!"
Ai pursed her lips. "I wouldn't bother you."
"Feeling your gaze at me as if you are dissecting me WILL be a bother."
Jun closed his laptop and hung his bag on his shoulder. Ai quickly followed him. "I wouldn't-"
"No."
"It would be really nice-"
"No."
"At least consider-"
"No."
"If my story gets hit, I will give you your due share."
He looked at her, speechless.
Do you think I will need any money share? ME?
"No!"
Jun took large strides and left before she could catch up. She was breathless.
Mrs. Quan Su commented. "Oh, dear. Why was he in such a rush?"
Ai nodded. "Don't worry. I will convince him."
She was confused. "Convince about what?"
She looked back. "To let me observe him."
Ah? Observe Jun? What is there to observe in him? ?
—
"We need to observe our brother."
In Liu villa, there was a big, secret meeting going on between Jian, Nian, Nuo and Jin. Together with Jun, they called it the Great Siblings Meet-up where they 'discussed' super important issues.
The super important issues were often useless in Jun's eyes, but he was always forced to participate.
Nuo asked, "What are you talking about?"
The twins took a deep breath.
"Alright, I know this is hard to digest, but you gotta believe your handsome brother."
"What is your handsomeness got to do with the truth?" She frowned.
"Everything."
"So you are just being narcissistic."
"Shut up."
Nuo turned towards the door. "Dad-"
Jian grabbed his sister's mouth and looked at her in horror. "You silly, silly sister, hahaha…You don't need to call Dad for such stupid things."
Nian wiped his forehead.
Nuo laughed. "Gosh, you are shit scared of Dad. It's always so funny."
Nian sobbed. "You tattle-tale! You want your big brothers to die so soon? Whenever you call Dad, it's as if you take away our precious years. That daughter-complex old man! He looks at us as if he would feed us to the sharks."
Nuo chuckled and shook her head. "I was just pulling your leg. Now tell us your super important thing. What's it about bro Jun?"
"A woman! He is cheating on Shui!"
Jin slightly stiffened. He stared at them in grimace.
Nian said, "We saw a woman coming out of Jun's condo. She totally stayed there the whole night!"
Nuo was speechless. "You must be kidding me. As if! It's bro Jun you are talking about. He can only see Shui and nobody else."
"It's the truth! We told Shui to confront him, but apparently, she still hasn't done it yet."
Jin stared at them. "You told Shui about this?"
Jian indignantly answered. "As good and responsible future brother-in-laws, yes, we did."
"...What was her reaction?" 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
"Of course, she found it unbelievable too. But she said she would talk to Jun about it."
Nuo touched her chin. "There must be some misunderstanding. Whatever it is, bro Jun and Shui will figure it out."
"Aish! So naive, little sis," Nian sighed. "We mustn't be on the sidelines."
"We must investigate!"
Nuo glared at them. "You two are enjoying this."
They guiltily coughed. "Of course not."
"Don't poke into their relationship."
"We are not! We just don't want Shui to get hurt. Jin, didn't you meet Jun two days ago? Did you notice something strange?"
Jin recalled Ai and her interaction with Jun.
Are they talking about the same woman?
He also remembered Jun looking pale and disoriented which made him worry about his brother, but he didn't consider it related to Ai in any way.
Jin glanced at his siblings, waiting for his answer.
He smiled. "Nothing really. He was the same as always."
Nuo said, "See?"
Jian frowned. "I am just worried. For the last 2 years or so, I sense that Jun and Shui have had arguments quite often. Little things here and there. Though they patch up soon enough, so it doesn't feel that anything is going wrong."
Nian supported his brother. "I feel the same. That's why that woman is bugging me. It feels as if everything will just go more wrong from here onwards. Hey, Jin! You are unusually silent today."
"Of course not. I am just wondering the same."
Jian and Nian declared. "Alright! So here's what we have decided! We will find out more about the woman and see for ourselves what her intentions are. We will talk to Shui about this too."
Jin intervened. "Shui. I will talk to her."
Nuo sighed. "Why don't you just ask bro Jun directly?"
Jian and Nian were about to answer when she said it herself, "Because it won't be fun that way."
The twins acted innocent.
"What are you two planning anyway?"
"Hohoho! The woman dared to lay her eyes on our little brother. Of course, she would have to go through the Twins' Trial of Judgment!"
