Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Warlord. A username which made people think that it was a guy on the other side of the screen. But the truth was way different. The name and the mannerism belonged to a man, but the gender was that of a womans. It had its own history behind its creation which both Guiyings knew.

Guiying opened the personal chat between Warlord and HS which was Shuis username on Reading Point. She went through the chat history and found the part where HS wrote that MrPerfect and her were good friends.

I dont really think so, she laughed. Who are you trying to fool? I am pretty sure you must you were more than just a friend to him, right? I remember it was MrPerfect who brought you on this forum. Plus your conversation tone reeks that you are a woman. I want to believe that you could be a man, but I dont think a man like MrPerfect would waste his time on one.

Guiyings eyes seemed calculating as she thought of something, staring at the chat. She then typed on her keyboard and hit the Send button.

Han villa.

Ever since the meeting between Shui and Jin yesterday, she had hardly stepped out of her room. Apart from eating meals that was too light for it to be even counted, Shui hadnt met anybody much.

I hate you, Han Shui.

As soon as she had returned from the restaurant, she had locked herself in the room and buried her face into the blanket, crying hard. She spent a sleepless night where she could think of nothing else but Jins eyes filled with hatred and his words that only struck her heart with poison. The sudden change in Jins behavior was unfathomable.

JinHe was always so gentle and smiling. He always looked at me so affectionately. We always laughed together. Then w-why does he hate me?.

Even now as she remembered his icy black eyes that looked at her with disdain, she shuddered and trembled. He was gone before she could even ask what was wrong. They hadnt fought or argued.

So why this sudden hate for her would erupt in his heart?

The tears that left her eyes refused to stop. By now, her irises were swollen and reddish. She thought to call Jin countless times, and she tried too.

But Jin never picked her calls. Instead, she received his cold reply, Dont call or message me again.

That crushed her heart akin to a glass shattering into pieces. She silently wailed, her heart filled with pain and grievance. She liked him, but Jin hated her. She would have understood if he might not return her feelings.

But hate?

That one word brought nothing but immense agony.

Her then phone lit up with a message, and widening her eyes, Shui jumped up in expectation.

Jin!

She hastily unlocked her phone, but that smile soon faded from her lips when she noticed a message on Reading Point.

It wasnt a message from Jin but from Warlord.

Her shoulders visibly drooped, feeling let down. She wasnt in the mood to talk to anybody on chat, but Warlord seemed persistent.

[Warlord Hey, hey! Are you ignoring me!?]

Releasing a soft sigh, Shui replied.

[HS HeyUm, if its okay, can we talk later?]

[Warlord No, wait! What happened by the way? You dont seem to be in a good mood. Did you fightperhaps with your friend MrPerfect?]

Shui stiffened upon remembering the meeting with Jin yesterday.

I dont know what to call it

[HS Its nothing. I didnt fight with him. Its just I am a little busy these days, so I am tired.]

[Warlord Haha, of course I knew it! You cannot fight with my best buddy! But that man is so busy! We are bros! How dare he ignore me!?]

She faintly smiled.

[Warlord Anywayyy. I wanted to ask if you would be free in the upcoming days~]

Shui thought about it.

[HS I guess soWhy are you asking?]

[Warlord Thats cool! You heard about the fest that will begin in Shanghai? I wanted you to invite to come over! I am gonna be there too! The members of our group are planning visit. It will be so much fun! And you know what? My idol, CherryBlossom gonna be there too woohooo!]

[HS Oh. Its nice, but I dont think I can make it.]

[Warlord Dont be like thisssss. Its a fest! Its gonna be tons of fun. What about MrPerfect? I am sure he gonna be there too? Its a heaven for us! He was there at my idols book signing event too!]

Shui wondered about it. As far as she knew, Ai was a writer who won the Author Summit, and there was a good chance she would be a part of the fest. And if his girlfriend would be there, she was sure that Jun would be there as well.

[HS I guess so.]

[Warlord Then you come with him as well~ I will finally get to meet a pretty woman too, hehe]

Shui rolled her eyes.

[Warlord Please, please? Everybody is comingggg!]

Shuis gaze dimmed. After what happened with Jin, she was in no mood to enjoy and have fun. But she also thought about Jun who would be there.

It will be a good time to talk to him

Shui sincerely wanted to apologize to him and even if she could easily meet him at his condo or at Sky, she hesitated. She felt it silly to meet him all the way in Shanghai when they lived in the same city. But she thought that the fest atmosphere might make it easier to break the silence between them.

[HS Fine. I will be there.]

[Warlord Woohoo! Awesome! Will see you in Shanghai then.]

[HS Yeah.]

Shui slept back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. A tear trickled out of her eye, thinking about Jin once again.

Guiying stared at Shuis message. She then dropped a message to Cai Lingyun.

Be at Shanghai fest, big bro.

She threw her phone on the desk and smiled in satisfaction.

Shanghai will be fun.
