Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu-Chapter 438 Facing The Dreaded Chapel

Xing Bi blinked and as she saw Sun Bai casually turning her head towards Natsukashi Bakery, she instinctively took a step back and hid in front of Nian. Nian's back faced Sun Bai, so she failed to catch her.

Ah? Why did I hide...Somehow I didn't want Miss. Sun to see me.

"Xing Biiiiii..."

She looked up to find an emotional Nian bursting with joy. "You hugged me on your own!"

"..."

Nian quickly caught her and squeezed her hard. "I knew it. Xing Bi also loves me~ Let's celebrate this occasion by hugging a bit more~"

Xing Bi stepped her foot on his. "Liu Nian you shameless man! Taking advantage of me!"

"But you hugged me first. How can I let this romantic cuddling slip?" 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

Nian's assistant was crying his own tears of joy. Nian had made everyone's life hell by endlessly talking about Xing Bi like a chatterbox.

Finally, Boss can calm down, he sniffled.

Xing Bi widened her eyes, feeling her face would be exposed by Nian's moving around. "Ssh!" She pulled his shirt until their faces were at a kissing distance.

Nian's heart sped faster in his chest, and his throat went dry as he stared hard at her beautiful kissable lips.

"Don't move," she whispered. "Miss. Sun is standing outside opposite the bakery."

"Hm."

At this point, her scent invaded his nostrils and his fingers twitched further to hold her face. They slowly made their way to cup her soft cheeks, him grinning in a daze.

Hehe, should I steal a peck from her lips? Though I will be dead the next moment, it would be worth it~

Xing Bi slightly craned her neck and saw Sun Bai meeting the same man again as the day when she had followed her after missing her bus.

"Is he the boyfriend?" She muttered thoughtfully.

Nian slightly coughed as he smiled bashfully. "Of course."

"Ah? Really? I never heard her talking about it."

Nian edged his fingers to touch her cheek and leaned more and more to taste his heaven. "Because she always ignores him though her heart is filled with love for him."

Her brow twitched, but then she seemed to agree. "Hm, she does seem like the type. Cold and stern on the outside, but hiding her true feelings on the inside."

Nian nodded. "Just like that. That's why he will never give up on her. It's just a matter of time~"

His lips were dangerously inching closer to bridge the last few centimeters.

"But there seems to be something suspicious between them," Xing Bi frowned. "If he is her boyfriend, she doesn't look so thrilled about it though."

Nian lacked tears to shed. "T-the day will come soon enough! So let's bring the day closer by sharing a passionate kiss~"

"Idiot! Will they kiss passionately in the middle of the street!?"

"But we are in the shop dear. If you are worried about the glass windows, how about we pull down the shutters? Then nobody can disturb us~"

Xing Bi finally moved her irises, feeling totally at a loss. "What are you talking about-"

She stiffened with proximity and with his devilishly handsome face too close for her heart to bear, she almost got a heart attack. Not just his face but his lips who threatened to touch hers at any moment.

"Y-you you...! What are you doing!"

Nian coughed.

Tch. I almost had her.

"You totally wanted to kiss me!" She glared at him. "Shameless, utterly shameless!"

Her heart thudded so fast as if a train ran over her. Her cheeks were growing pink.

This man is too sly and dangerous!

"I am not shameless. You just admitted that you are hiding your real feelings deep inside your heart~"

She grimaced and smacked on his head. "I was talking about Miss. Sun!"

"Who is that?" He pouted and rubbed his head.

"..."

"Who were you talking about this whole time then?" She was dumbfounded.

"Us~" he sheepishly grinned.

"..."

This man is hopeless!

Xing Bi noticed Sun Bai going inside a cafe with the man.

"L-let's follow them!"

Even I don't know why I am doing this, but I have this really odd feeling!

She grabbed Nian's hand and pulled him out of the bakery. Nian's assistant who peeked out his head was speechless to see Xing Bi pulling his Boss away. He blushed.

Things are already going so far for them?

One of the interns asked, "Where is Boss Nian? I want to show him my cookies! Today, he will definitely praise me!"

"Hotel..." he mumbled.

"Hotel?" The intern innocently blinked his eyes.

The chief assistant coughed. "Nothing! Boss is away for some important personal stuff so let's not bother him. He might not even return to the bakery today...So show me whatever it is you have made."

Outside, Nian was at a loss this time. "Are you finally taking me to a not so innocent place to do some not so innocent things?" He hopefully asked with his shining black eyes.

"I will throw you into the sea if you keep talking! We are investigating!"

"Oh?" Nian curiously raised his brow. "Who are we investigating?"

"Somebody who works with your brother."

Reaching the church where Jin and Shui's wedding was arranged in his last life, Jin silently stood before the entrance.

Shui thought to wait inside the car until his work was done, but when Jin didn't move an inch, her brows crinkled with questions and she stepped out too. She took a look at the church and wondered.

A church? What work does Jin has here...?

She then caught Jin's figure faintly trembling and his eyes expressing a sense of fear she had never seen before. He seemed strongly resistant to go inside, but he didn't seem to want to pull back and leave the place either.

Why is he looking so afraid?

"Jin...?" She tried to touch his shoulder.

He softly gasped and snapped out of his daze. Without answering her, Jin forced his legs to walk and face the dreaded place. With every step that he took further, the painful memories of that day gripped his heart into chaos. Tears stung his eyes, remembering the sound of Jun's bullet that had pierced his chest.
