Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

The voice on the other side immediately rejected that claim. "That's impossible. Nobody can connect you to Chen Zixin. They have no idea about us. That's why they cannot predict anything we will do. If they had even a trace of doubt, they wouldn't have let Chen Zixin leave for Shanghai."

She listened in silence. She couldn't argue about the logic, but that uneasy feeling didn't settle in her heart.

"Trust me. They don't know about us."

"Now, they do," Zhan Yahui raised her brow. "I don't mean literally. But the knowledge is enough that somebody is pulling the strings secretly. They won't sit still until they catch the real culprit."

"...What should we do?"

"Nothing. Not now. It's too dangerous. Kidnapping that useless Mao Jingyi was already a risk. I don't want to leave any traces behind."

She exhaled a deep breath and rested her head back on the couch.

The voice on the other end pointed out. "Let's wait then. But regarding Chen Zixin, we are not completely out of the woods yet."

She slowly opened her eyes. "I know what you're talking about. CherryBlossom's books. Chen Zixin will definitely have them. He has lost his memories, but if he comes across those books...it's likely he might start to remember about her. He might or might not, but it's a risk for sure. Before he returns home, we need to dispose of them. He cannot see them again."

"But outside-"

"We will worry about that later. I don't want anything in his immediate vicinity for now."

It said after a pause, "Okay. But we don't have any way to enter the Chen villa."

Zhan Yahui tapped her finger, thinking of the possible ways to get in without notice. Then a smile formed on her lips. "I think I have a way. The Chen family will open their doors for us themselves."

Jin woke up the next day with light bags under his eyes. He yawned and stretched his arms. He saw the door to his room open as Nana stepped in. "Jin."

"Mom. Good morning."

She smiled and put his cup of coffee on his bedside table. "Good morning." She frowned, looking at the laptop beside him on the bed. "And why do your eyes look so tired? Were you awake for the whole night?"

Jin wanted to lie, but he knew it would be fruitless. "Just some work."

She shook her head and scolded him. "Don't mess up your sleep," she then glanced at the injury on his forehead and said, "I will change the dressing once you freshen up."

"Cool."

She softly asked, "Does it still hurt?"

He smiled. "Not anymore."

She nodded. From Nian, she already knew the story of how he got hurt while trying to protect Jin.

Nana stared at her son. "It would have hurt you more if Jun had gotten hurt."

He didn't reply to that statement.

She inwardly sighed.

This boy...

"Anyway. As always we do every year, we will be donating all the things we don't use anymore to orphanages. The workers will come later to collect them. So keep all those things ready before you head to the bath."

"Ah, it's that day already..." he nodded. "I will gather all my stuff."

She smiled and pinched his cheek. "Get ready and come for breakfast."

Jin saw her leave and stared at his laptop, sighing. "Let's get back to work again but first, I am damn hungry."

--

As Jin walked along the corridor, he heard the loud and booming voice of his grandfather. "Hohoho! Eat up more!"

Not just him, but the twins were making a bunch of chatter too.

He frowned with disdain. "Why does this old man have so much energy at all times of the day?"

When he reached the breakfast table, he finally learned the reason behind his loud and booming voice. He froze upon seeing a particular woman on the breakfast table as if nothing was wrong.

Ai lifted her gaze and stared at Jin, and he stared back at her.

Silence. A deep, long silence.

Jinhai had no expression on his face while Nana and Nuo were clearly curious to talk to her. Jian and Nian were on a whole different level of hyperactivity. Liu Chunhua was scolding her husband to rein in his excitement.

As for Ai who was completely surrounded by the Liu family, she seemed as if she was still processing the reason behind her presence here.

"...What is Zhou Ai doing here?" Jin slowly asked.

Liu Hai brightened. "I brought her here!"

Liu Chunhua gritted her teeth. "Brought? Or kidnapped!?"

Ai wondered the same.

I was going to the library as always, but...

*Flashback*

As Ai walked towards the library early in the morning, a black Porsche suddenly stopped beside her. "Ai! Ai! It's me!"

Liu Hai waved his hand from inside the car with full vigor.

"Grandpa?" She was surprised. "What are you doing here?"

"Morning walk!" He chirped.

She stared at the luxurious Porsche. "From a car?"

"Don't look at the minor details~"

Your big and luxurious car is not a minor detail, Grandpa.

"What a coincidence to see you here. Hey, I know! How about having breakfast with me?"

Ai politely smiled. "Jun already made the breakfast-"

The door opened, her hand was suddenly grabbed, and she was pulled inside in a flash. "Hoho, isn't it such a great idea to have breakfast with your grandpa?"

"I already had-"

"We will have so many delicious dishes~ This old man is getting bored."

"..."

His expectant expression was hard to reject. Even if Ai was full, she couldn't really go against him.

"...Sure."

*Flashback ends*

Ai stared at all the family members.

'How about having breakfast with me?'

I thought he meant just the two of us in a restaurant. Clearly, I misunderstood him, she pursed her lips.

Jian sneered. "I am surprised nobody lodged a complaint against him, seeing how he grabbed a young woman off the street."

"Shut up, you brat! Eat your food!" He glared at her. "There is nothing wrong in taking my future granddaughter-in-law home!"

The vein on Jin's forehead violently twitched. His gaze shot deadly beams at Liu Hai.

This old man...
