Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu-Chapter 512 Sky’s Anniversary Arc (17)

*Flashback*

It was around the time when Guiying was starting to face harassment on Reading Point. She would get abusive, sometimes perverted messages from a particular user of Reading Point.

Naturally, she blocked his account but that same user would pop back in with a different username and begin the harassment all over again. Things reached a point where Guiying was really troubled.

Ai, who couldn't bear seeing her friend so disturbed anymore, said with a harsh countenance, "Guiying, we should definitely go to the police with this. They will track the culprit and only then this matter would get over. He deserves to get punished."

Guiying broke into a sweat hearing that. "No, no, Ai. I-I don't want to go to such extremes."

She pursed her lips. "This is not extreme. This is protecting yourself and punishing the one responsible for the situation. He cannot be let go like this or tomorrow, he will target somebody else."

Guiying sighed, biting her lower lip.

"If it was happening to me, you would have fought for me like I am doing but when it comes to yourself, you back off," Ai shook her head. "Think about it again. You don't have to be afraid. Naturally, I will accompany you to the police station."

"Thanks Ai," Guiying nodded.

But the situation of going to the police station never arrived because before that, Guiying faced an extreme threat from the harasser the next day that he would leak some of her secrets to her loved ones.

That panicked the hell out of her because the first thing that came to her mind was of her alter ego. She knew that the presence of another personality within her would be definitely treated as abnormal.

Her face paled as she thought about MrPerfect. She felt nauseous with the mere thought of him finding this out.

He-he will definitely get creeped out by me, right?

Guiying really didn't understand just how that harasser learned any of her secrets. She knew he could be lying too but was she ready to take that risk?

The answer was no.

She tried to talk that culprit out of it, but he would only mock her by saying how much he hated her.

'I cannot stand the sight of beautiful and successful women like you. You think you are great just because you have some few puny fans?'

'By being here on Reading Point, do you wanna start a cult or something? You should probably fuck off before you piss me off! I hate your guts!'

Guiying's eyes teared up but she thought that if she left Reading Point then she could probably save everything, especially her relationship with MrPerfect.

At the same time, she got a message from MrPerfect, striking up a casual conversation.

'Hello.'

She saw him uploading a picture of a cherry blossom tree and below it, he wrote, 'Hope this cheers you up.'

She blinked her misty eyes.

Cheer me up?

'I cannot see your face through our chats but recently, it feels from your messages that you are troubled about something. i could be wrong though.''

Guiying lowered her gaze sadly.

It's because of that harasser…

'I saw this beautiful tree on my way back home so thought of sending the picture here.'

A soft smile curved her lips.

'I hope this brings a smile to your face. You like cherry blossoms, right?'

She quickly replied. 'Yes, I like them a lot. And I am smiling too. Thank you.'

MrPerfect aka Zixin replied with a pleased emoji, making her chuckle. But a sense of helplessness and loneliness enveloped her too.

Yes I cannot really take any risk…

'If you are comfortable in sharing your troubles with me, I will always be here. I will definitely help you. Of course, I am not pressurizing you into telling me without your will…I just mean I want to help you in any way I can.'

Her eyelashes trembled reading his warm message, but her heart felt uneasy.

'No, of course not. I am really fine. It's just work making me tired.'

'I see. I am relieved. But you should take care of your health and not overwork.'

This time he replied with a displeased emoji.

Guiying laughed but felt guilty at the same time about lying to him.

I wish I could tell you…But I really don't want to lose this small relationship between us…

She sniffled as tears escaped her eyes. She made her decision of leaving Reading Point, but how could she tell him?

She spent a whole sleepless night thinking about that. She couldn't just leave without letting MrPerfect have any clue.

Then an idea struck her.

"Wait, I can join the forum with a new ID and tell MrPerfect that I am actually CherryBlossom!" Her eyes beamed as she seemed to find a way out of her crisis. "That harasser would not even know. If he can create multiple accounts then so can I." 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m

"As for what happened to my original account…I will just tell him that there were some problems with it…"

With that being said, she quickly created a new account.

"It would be even better if I created it with a male username. I won't be targeted again," she pursed her lips.

And so from CherryBlossom, she became Warlord. For some reason, she felt extremely nervous about dropping MrPerfect a message. Her ID was right in front of her, but she hesitated to text him.

"What are you doing?"

She gasped and jolted. Turning back, she saw Zhan Yahui watching her with interest.

"Where are you lost in your phone?" She smiled. "I have been calling you for a while now."

"S-sorry!" Guiying fumbled. "I was just…" she averted her eyes.

"Hm? Is there something on your mind? It would be better to let it out so that you can focus on your novel with a clear mind."

"Well…"

Guiying thought that it wasn't a bad idea.

"I…" she quickly cleared her throat. "I mean I have a friend who..."

When she was done explaining her predicament in the guise of an imaginary friend, Zhan Yahui watched her carefully and said, "Hm, I don't think that's a good idea."
