Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

On the other side, Jun, Ai and Xing Bi were discharged from the hospital while Jin was supposed to stay for another day for some more observation.

Initially, they were going to head back to the condo but it was Nana who came forward and sternly said that they would live in Liu villa - at least until the time she was convinced that they had fully recovered.

Zhou Yichen and Xie Nuying agreed to it as well. After the sudden and inexplicable mishap to both Jun and Ai, nobody wanted to take the risk of leaving them alone.

Ai hesitantly asked as she stood before the Liu villa, "Is it really fine for me to stay here-"

Suddenly, a big and fluffy grandpa jumped onto Ai. "My dear granddaughter-in-law! You hurt me! How can you question this? This house is as much yours as it is Jun-cute's!"

Jun gritted his teeth.

When will he give up on calling me Jun-cute!?

"Actually, this villa is more of yours than Jun-cute's!" He chirped. "Do you know how excited I am to live with you!" He beamed.

His wife kicked him from the back and said, "Hai! Don't speak in that ambiguous sense. Do you want people to mistake you for a pervert!?"

"Hey! I am just eager to spend some cuddly moments with my granddaughter-in-law! Why do people always treat me as somebody suspicious?" He protested, aggrieved. "Right, right, right, Ai? You want to live with your Grandpa too, right?"

Ai nodded. "I want to live with Grandpa too."

"See!"

Jun sighed. "Don't take his side. He is already spoiled as is."

"Jun-cute you are just jealous of me!"

"Who is jealous of an old grandpa like you!"

From the back a cry of scream echoed. "Hey, hey, hey, stop scratching me! Why are you being so hostile to meeeee?" Jian sobbed as he tried to reign in the cat Jun-cute.

The cat fiercely hissed and struck his paws at him.

"Ahhh my handsome face!!! Why this injustice!?"

Ai quickly came to his side. "Give him to me."

Jun-cute jumped onto Ai's shoulder while still glaring at Jian with dark brown eyes.

"You…isn't he too similar to Jun!? Jun! What the fuck are you teaching your cat?"

Jun cocked his brow and a wave of satisfaction gushed in his heart upon seeing a troubled Jian. "I didn't teach him anything. The cat is very intelligent."

"You liar! You are training this cat to go against me!"

"If that is so then why is she so calmly sitting in Bro Nian's arms?" He said as he pointed at Ai-chan.

She peacefully laid in Nian's arms without so much as a scratch on his hand. Nian was over the moon. "She is so cute!"

Jian cried. "Nian, let me hold her too!"

"Hey back off! You have Jun-cute's responsibility and I took Ai-chan. Don't you dare try to change your party!" He glared at him and fiercely covered Ai-chan as if she would get kidnapped.

"Awww he is so cute!"

Jian looked back and saw Nuo, who was openly petting Jun-cute under his chin. To his shock, the cat was even rubbing his furry face against her cheek. "I love him!"

"..."

This world…is too unjust!!!

"You you…I won't forget this! Why is it with only me that he acts so cruelly?"

Nuo proudly harrumphed. "Because I am cute!"

*Meow!*

Jun-cute seemed to agree.

Jian was left to cry in a corner and draw circles on the ground.

Jun rolled his eyes. "Let's go in already."

As they stepped into the villa, Nana came first and welcomed them. She hugged Ai and softly said, "I am glad to see you healthy now."

Ai's heart fluttered with warmth. She shyly hugged her back and replied. "Thank you, M-Mom…"

Nana stared at her for a few moments, making her question, "Is there something on my face?"

Ai quickly patted her cheek, feeling embarrassed.

"No, no. You look beautiful as always. I am just…feeling overwhelmed. I am relieved that you will live here from now on."

Ai didn't quite understand, but she held her hand and said, "I promise I won't make you feel worried anymore. I will take good care of my health."

She beamed. "Good, good!"

Nana then took a step towards Jun and peered into his eyes this time. He smiled at her. "Mom."

Her eyes ached, but she didn't let her tears fall. She held his face between her slightly trembling hands and stared at her son.

Jun blinked and tilted her head. "Mom?"

"A-Ah? It's nothing…You have really grown up so well…"

He chuckled. "Of course, Mom. I know you wish your children to remain those sweet innocent kids forever. But I always wanted to grow up faster and become an adult, so that I could be reliable and take care of you."

Jian chimed in. "Take care of Mom or marry her?"

"..."

Nian sneered. "We all know how much you crushed on Mom, little brother."

Which is why he always hung at the Han villa because Aunt Xinyi reminded him of Mom.

Buuuuut he will kill me if I expose that~

"I bet you secretly cursed Dad to go somewhere far away and never come back," Jian snorted.

Liu Hai reminisced. "Ah I remember those days as if it was just yesterday. How he used to follow around Nana like a cute puppy~"

Jun - "..."

Ai held in her laughter.

The twins exclaimed. "Yeah and that's why he always snitched on us to curry hugs and brownie points from Mom! He was a traitor to our siblings' union!"

Jun gave them a dry look.

Liu Chunhua smacked them from the side. "Do you three always have to ruin a happy and emotional moment? Go stand at the corner and reflect on your actions!"

"Whaaaaaaat?" They grumbled in complaint but dragged their feet towards the pillar anyway.

Jun asked as he observed Nana to look a little odd. "Mom, are you okay?"

Her lips lifted in a mysterious but melancholic smile. "Shouldn't I be the one asking you that question?"

"Me? I am super happy," he laughed.

She slightly trembled and whispered to herself. "Yes…I am glad…I am really glad to see you happy, Jun…"

Jun took a look around and asked, "By the way, where is Dad?"

Nana broke from her daze and narrowed her eyes. Jun shuddered to see her emotional smile transform into something menacing.

Her voice felt bitter and hostile as she answered. "Oh your father? Don't worry about him. Just like Dad and the twins, he is somewhere facing the pillar and reflecting on his own actions. He will be there for QUITE some time."
