Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

684 Jin's icy threat



Shivering and with trepidation reigning her heart, Ren Alix faced Shui. Her heart was consumed with bitterness as she bit the corner of her lower lip, not backing down from glowering at Shui. The hotel staff working in the lobby witnessed the confrontational scene unfolding through the glass doors and rushed outside. 

“Miss. Han, are you alright?,” the receptionist hurriedly asked. She turned towards a steward and quickly whispered. “Bring a fresh towel!”

“Yes, Mam!”

Shui kept a placid smile and assured her. “I am fine. It’s just water. But I would like to know the reason behind her rudeness towards me,” her sharp, cold voice bellowed across the air, making the culprit further rattle.

But her slightly reddened and exhausted irises depicted the sour emotions she felt. “Y-you know pretty well why I did this.”

“I have no idea why you would throw a bucket of water down my head when I haven’t even met you before. So it puzzles me that a complete stranger would act like a hooligan.”

Ren Alix clenched her fist, glaring at her. “Am I the hooligan or you!” She raised her voice in tension, “You were se-seducing Yuze yesterday. Blushing at him, laughing with him…h-how dare you!? I-I am Yuze’s girlfriend and you don’t have any right to act so close with a committed man…!”

Shui gave her an aghast stare. Fury made her grit her teeth. “So you made me go through this shitty ordeal because you thought I was seducing Kang Yuze? Are you drunk? Or are you on drugs?”

She stiffened, her chest slightly gasping for air. “Sh-shut up! Don’t you dare try to run away now! Yuze…Yuze is my b-boyfriend…Don’t you feel ashamed of targeting somebody else’s man!”

The more Shui heard, the more dumbstruck she became by her nonsense allegations. “You are seriously out of your mind! First of all, we all were here for a business meeting. So contrary to what you are alleging, my conduct was all and only professional. Secondly, I have no romantic interest in Kang Yuze and thirdly, I think you are the one escaping from reality here when you are Kang Yuze’s ex-girlfriend.”

She froze.

“He himself said that you two have broken up. So before you barge in at a person with a bucket of water to attack her, get yourself on the same page as the man in question first.”

“N-Not true!” Ren Alix burst out, agitated. “There is just a misunderstanding between Yuze and me. He s-said that in spite. There is no way Yuze and I are separated!” Tears welled in her eyes as she trembled hard.

Shui wasn’t sure if she wanted to remain furious at her or pity her. 

She is seriously delusional…

“You need that conversation with Kang Yuze, not a random woman who happened to be in the same room as him for a few hours,” Shui icily made her point clear. “Will you attack every other woman like this who Kang Yuze would come in contact with? Out of your jealousy and insecurity? You are only going to drive him farther away from you like this.”

Ren Alix paled and she stumbled back, unable to answer for a few long seconds. Tears streamed down her eyes and she kept biting into her lip until it bled. A second later, she straightened up and out of nowhere charged at Shui. “You are wrong! Yuze and I are still together! You are the one coming in between and ruining everything!”

The steward tried to hold her back. “Mam, please step back-“I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

But she violently pushed him away and tried to grab Shui’s shoulder when a hand caught her wrist, bringing her to a stop. 

The tension in Jin’s brows and facial muscles coupled with his iceberg cold black gaze dropped the temperature of the air by several degrees. He slightly twisted her wrist until she gasped in pain. “Step back before I fucking end your existence right here.”

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm It felt as though the wind became completely still that forgot to blow under Jin’s intense pressure. Ren Alix clasped her wrist tearfully, pain jolting down her nerves.

“Apologize to Shui for all your nonsense act right now before I make the situation very, very worse for you, Ren Alix. Trust me,” his eyes glinted with a murderous intent. “You don’t want a Liu doing that to you.”

Shui lightly coughed. At this moment, Jin looked exactly like Zhiyuan and Jinhai whenever they would enter their rage mode. “It’s okay, Jin.”

He shot her a glare. “It’s not okay at all.”

He grabbed the towel that the other steward hurriedly brought and placed it atop her head. His movements were gentle and slow as he rubbed her hair and face, wiping away the water. His concerned gaze studied her for any injuries but found none to his relief.

“I am sorry for being late. I don’t know where that idiot wallet got lost…” he muttered under his breath in frustration.

I was sure the wallet was on the bed so how did it change its place!? He was genuinely puzzled with the mystery.

“Alix!”

A series of anxious footsteps sounded against the ground as Kang Xue hurried her way in. Jin froze the moment his sight fell on her. Shui caught his reaction and noticed how stress had made his brows crease and made his face lose color. She pulled his hand and tightened her palm against his, wishing to share her warmth and assurance – the assurance that she didn’t want him feeling ashamed.

She didn’t know if it had that desired effect on Jin as he left her gaze and faced Kang Xue, taking a deep breath. “Where is Kang Yuze?” He coldly asked but with his lips slightly trembling, “He is the right person to be here and knock some sense into this woman. I don’t need his sister here.”

Kang Xue, who was trying to pacify an agitated Ren Alix, shared a look of distress at Jin. “I came here alone.”

“Does your brother have a problem controlling a woman throwing water and attacking an innocent woman who has nothing to do with the drama going on between him and his ex-girlfriend?” He sneered.

Her jaw tightened. She looked at Shui and pressed her lips. A moment later, she bowed. “On Alix’s behalf, I sincerely apologize to you, Miss. Han. I know it will sound ridiculous to you, but Alix really didn’t hurt you on purpose or had any bad intentions.”

Jin’s face blackened. His past guilt and shame mixed with his present fury and resistance as he lashed out. “I think you are equally out of your mind if you want us to seriously believe that. I don’t give a damn to what you say. I want Ren Alix to apologize to Shui. If she knows how to violently charge at somebody then surely it wouldn’t take much to say a sorry right? She doesn’t need you to do her part. Make her say sorry or I will crush the Ren family into smithereens.”
