Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Xing Bi peered into his black eyes which seemed to suck her into their intensity. She didn't want to admit it but this man who almost trapped her into debt, bullied her precious Ai and lied to her about many things was extremely charming with the stark contrast between his joyful and serious sides.

Have I been single for far too long for me to think a troublesome man to be charming?

She helplessly chuckled and ruffled his hair. "You are so silly. That was the past card. The PAST. Something that has already happened. How does it affect me now? Though I didn't understand the past card at all. I am not sure which truth and light it was referring to. I never searched for any truth until now. For that matter...I am clueless about Jun and Ai's cards too," she scratched her chin.

"Xing Bi," he narrowed his eyes. "I don't care if it was the past card or not. I won't simply tolerate anything that implies your harm."

She raised her brow and folded her arms. "But what can you do about it? Nobody can change the past."

His gaze darkened. "I cannot change the past, but I can take my revenge."

"..."

"And how will you find the person who supposedly has hurt me?"

"I don't know how, but I will bring him out even if I have to dig the whole earth! I won't spare anybody who dares to have any bad intentions towards you. And once I find him..." he sneered. "Well what you saw happen to the judges was just a trailer. I can become much more of a psycho in the base."

"..."

Her heart thumped in her chest, and she felt her cheeks growing hotter just like the time in Shanghai.

This man is becoming dangerous...

She cleared her throat and passed by him. "Okay, that's enough talk about the cards. I am not into divinity anyway so-"

She stiffened when he pulled her towards him, her back bumping on his chest. His breath fanned his hair which felt ticklish. "W-what?"

He whispered near her ear. "I must ask that to you. Why are you running away?"

Her brow twitched. "I am not running away."

"Are you sure you are not hiding your red cheeks?" He raised her brow. "Don't worry. Only we two are here. You can admit it to me."

"..."

His eyes sparkled with mischief. "Which means is it not true that I am affecting you? Are you feeling shy?" He expectantly asked.

She smiled. "Do you want to feel pain?"

"Ah? Ouch!"

Xing Bi kicked him on his ankle and putting her hands on her waist, glared at him. "Keep your distance, young man. Just because I dragged you into my home doesn't mean you get to do anything funny!"

His foot was tingling with pain, yet he sheepishly grinned. "I don't mind if you drag me to your bedroom either..."

"..."

She gave him an understanding smile. "I see. I understand. I should drag you out of the house now," she beamed. "You seem to be back to your usual, jolly and troublesome self so time for you to go back. I prefer not having troublesome kids in my house," she sneered.

"..."

"N-No, Xing Bi. Our romantic time has just started!" He cried. "We should be getting all cuddly and mushy now!"

"Cuddly and mushy my foot! Get out!" She unceremoniously kicked him out of her house without any mercy.

"Xing Biiii!!" He sniffled.

Xing Bi chuckled. "Our date comes to an end now."

He wiped his eyes. "When will be our next date? Tomorrow?"

"..."

"Don't get too ahead of yourself! You are not my boyfriend yet," she harrumphed.

"When will that 'not' and 'yet' disappear from your sentence, my dear?"

Her brow twitched. "How about after an eternity?"

"But that will be too long. I cannot wait to make babies with you..." he sobbed.

"..."

A vein popped on her head, and she ruthlessly kicked him again. "Stupid Nian! Out!"

She snorted and was about to close the door shut when he grabbed it and stopped her.

"I am not letting you inside again-"

Her words fell back in her throat as the proximity between them increased. The door served as a narrow gap between them which she felt to be almost invisible.

"Xing Bi."

Again...

Xing Bi was unable to speak as he donned his serious mode. She felt his eyes fixed on her with intent and scrutiny. "I don't know if that card meant something or not, but I won't let any harm come your way because any harm will have to battle me first. And trust me, I am a damn good fighter. Nothing evil will ever be able to touch you."

She parted and shut her lips several times, her heart pounding in her chest like a bullet train. Despite her resistance, she could feel his sweet and determined words make way into her heart ever so slowly. She swallowed a gulp when he bent further. She didn't see his expression, but she could feel the slight mischief in his voice.

"Because the only evil that can touch you is me."

His words sent a tingle right down her spine, and she shuddered. "Y-y-you admit you are e-evil?"

There was silence that only fastened her heartbeats.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

"For you my dear, I can cross every limit of evilness there exists in this world and the one there might not even be."

She felt a soft peck on her forehead as he placed his lips for just half a second. Before she could react and lift her head, Nian was already gone. She blinked her eyes rapidly, seeing nothing but empty space ahead.

He is gone...

She dazedly touched her forehead.

Was that my imagination or did he really...

Recalling the last words he whispered to her, she collapsed on her knees, hiding her face in her palms.

Ahhhh...This is bad. This is so very bad. I am done for...
