Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Jun felt an itch in his throat.

Hm? Why does Mom look so irritated?

What did Dad do? Dad never does anything to make Mom angry so much…

Nana held Jun and Ai's hands and pulled them towards the living room. "Sit you two. I have cooked some warm meals for you. It's healthy and refreshing. Let me bring it for you!"

Nana hopped away to the kitchen as Liu Chunhua and Nuo joined her.

Liu Hai took a seat on the couch and asked, "How are things at Sky? I just saw the news. The criticism against Sky is not dying down."

Jun narrowed his eyes. "I will sort things out especially for Yunru and Shi Huan. The author Cui Fen is clearly lying and we can prove it. Once that evidence gets out, they won't have to face any problem anymore."

"I see. When are you going to release the evidence?" He cocked his brow.

He let out a cunning smile. "I don't need to, Grandpa. Somebody else will do my work."

"Who?"

"The same enemy who put Sky into trouble?"

"I don't think they put Sky into trouble to kindly help you out of this mess too."

He chuckled. "Trust me. Just wait and watch. I don't need to do anything and I told Shi Huan to not do anything either to prove herself innocent. Absolutely nothing."

"You are confident."

"Because I know how they want this to play out. When I was in the hospital and the nurse refused to let me meet Ai, I was very free and bored and angry that I wasn't able to see my girlfriend."

Ai's brow twitched.

The rest - "..."

"So I channeled that frustration into thinking long and hard about this whole situation which I was going to do later anyway. I kind of understood why they targeted only Yunru and Sun Bai."

Ai asked, "If Huan will be proved innocent, then what about Miss. Sun? I am worried about her too."

"Sun Bai will be fine too. I know what information they want to use against her."

Ai blinked. "Information against her? Wasn't she already blamed for leaking my drafts?"

"That was just a trailer. They want to shake Sky's foundation first. Once the real information gets out, Sky could crumble…according to them that is."

Jun thought about his past life's experiences and how he had witnessed Sky falling down.

If she did it in the past, she will use the same method this time too. It's just that the target changed from me to Yunru and Sun Bai.

Just then, Jun's phone received a message from Huan.

'Bro Jun. I got Cui Fen's message asking me to meet her. What should I do?'

Jun smiled.

Just as I had thought.

He typed back. 'Ignore her message.'

She replied back. 'Are you sure? I will definitely gain some information to expose her lies and prove Yunru innocent!'

Jun understood her desperation. He clearly saw how she was more invested in proving Yunru innocent than herself. More than her own, she was feeling guilty for causing damage to Yunru and Sky's reputation.

He typed. 'Trust me. You don't need to do anything. I know why she wants to meet you, and it will only bring more trouble for you no matter how cautious you act. We cannot let that happen.'

Huan's message came back a few seconds later. 'I understand, Bro. I won't meet her.'

'Good.'

Jian gasped dramatically as he shamelessly peeked into Jun's phone. "Jun is flirting with Shi Huan! My dear sister-in-law, he is cheating on you!"

"..."

"You don't seem to love your life anymore, Bro," Jun warned him with a lethal smile.

"See, see! Ai, he is threatening to kill his handsome elder brother to shut his mouth forever!"

"As if Ai would take part in your nonsense-"

Ai wiped her nonexistent tears. "How could you, Jun? Are you tired of me now? I trusted you so much."

"..."

Ai promptly turned her head, feeling his sharp, judgemental stare.

Jun sneered. "Yeah don't worry, I will teach you your due lesson too, Ai-chan."

She coughed.

"Now he wants to silence his girlfriend too! Look at this cruel man!"

Liu Hai waved his hand in dismissal. "So dramatic."

…They are your genes, Grandpa. Why are you acting so innocent?

"Anyway back to the main topic, tell me who is this enemy you are talking about. Grandpa is bored these days. I might as well have some fun with them~"

Jun remained silent. "Well that-"

"I will take care of it, Grandpa," Surprisingly, it was Nian who broke the short silence with his determined resolve.

Jun and Ai looked at him, stupefied. "What? Bro you-"

He threw a glance at Jun and said, "You focus on getting Sky out of the mess, little brother. I will deal with the rest."

Jun furrowed his brows heavily.

Bro is acting strange.

He remembered that back at the hospital too, his mood had turned quite odd after hearing about Zhan Yahui. But he didn't comment on it much.

Jian popped in a chip from the bowl that was kept in front of him on the table and alternated his gaze between his twin and Jun.

Hm, hm? I sense something more is happening in the background. What could it be?

Let's see…

Time to interrogate my dearest twin! He chirped inwardly.

Just like Jun and Jin always yielded before Nian's authority, Nian always yielded to Jian's.

Nian whispered in his ear. "We need to talk later, Jian."

Jian paused and stared at him curiously.

Ohh~? Seems like I don't need to take any effort this time~

"Cool."

"With Dad."

He tilted his head.

Seems that it's even more serious than I thought.

Guess it's gonna be super fun for a while! His eyes sparkled.

Jian looked at Jun and jumped on to hug him, ruffling his hair. "Don't worry my dearest brother! Your super reliable elder brothers will get you out of any pinch!"

"Ew! Don't hug me!" Jun mercilessly pushed him away. "Why are you suddenly acting so creepy!?"

"Aish, this is my love for you, little brother~"

"I humbly request to please keep it to yourself."

From afar, Nana fixed her gaze at Jun, clenching the food tray in her hand. She lowered her head, letting her quiet tears slide down her cheeks.
