Outside the police station, Xing Bi called out, "Liu Jun!"
Jun halted in his steps and turned. His mouth twitched to see Nian hopping behind her.
"Xing Bi, we are free now! How about we get to…" he sheepishly grinned, "know each other?"
Xing Bi ignored him and kept her eyes focused on Jun. "I wanted to talk to you."
He stared at her in silence. "I know. Why not come to my house? Ai is also there."
She blinked. "Oh. So you are officially living together as a couple?"
He smiled. "Yes. We wouldn't have it any other way."
"I see. Okay. Let's go," she nodded.
Nian brightened. "Yay! Let's go!"
Jun's expression turned ugly. "Who said you are coming?"
Nian glared at him and signaled him with his eyes.
Of course I would be there if Xing Bi is there too! Don't you dare disallow me or I will haunt you!
Jun wished to drown him in the sea forever.
"Xing Bi," Ai's face blossomed into a beautiful smile seeing her at their condo. She hugged her but pursed her lips as she apologized. "I am sorry, Xing Bi. I didn't want to let you know about Jun and me through social media like that. I wanted to personally tell you but before that at the library-"
"Oho! Why are you apologizing to me?" Xing Bi harrumphed. "You are so cute, Ai. I am not disappointed at all! Really, you worry over the strangest things," She shook her head.
"And blush over strangest things too," Jun lazily added.
Ai looked back at him with complaint which urged Jun to pinch her pouty cheeks.
Ai held her hands and smiled like a beam of sunlight illuminating a dark room. "Xing Bi. I would like to introduce you to Liu Jun. He is my boyfriend. We…" her cheeks flushed, "We confessed on Valentine's Day at the Summit and since then, we are dating."
Nian cheered and clapped in delight. "Congratulations!!! You are my future sister-in-law!"
Which made Xing Bi extremely worried for Ai. She grabbed her head and pushed it against her chest. "Ai! I know you are a wise woman, and I trust your choice. If you love Liu Jun, then I support it. But what I cannot support is this man becoming your brother-in-law!
You have no idea how much of a liar he is! I am worried about the family you will be marrying into!"
Jun grabbed a pillow and hit it towards Nian. "I cannot even blame her for getting scared like that, stupid brother!"
Xing Bi looked like a demoness at that moment. "You don't know how Nian fooled me. And then he even had the nerve to scold you! I want to kill this bastard!"
Jun sneered. "I have some good sets of knives in my kitchen. Pick one to your liking and just end his sorry life once and for all."
Xing Bi stared at Jun, her expression gleaming. "I like you more and more now. I am so glad that you are not like your brother! Such a good younger brother…You must have suffered a lot."
Jun stiffened, and he watched her with great respect. "You can tell…?" His eyes ached. "You are right. My childhood was hell because of Bro Nian and Bro Jian!"
She blinked. "Hm? Who is Jian?"
There was a long pause. Then a sharp gasp escaped her mouth as she jerked her head towards Nian in disbelief. "There are two of you? One wasn't enough!?"
Nian gritted his teeth, feeling aggrieved. "Hey, hey! Aren't you two bonding over the wrong thing here?"
"We are bonding over the right thing here!" For original chapters go to novelFɪre.net
"We are bonding over the right thing here!" Jun and Xing Bi exclaimed at the same time as they shot deadly glares at him.
Tears filled his eyes, and he pulled Ai towards him, who was his only source of salvation. "Ai, tell her something. Please tell her that I am not such a bad guy," he looked at her with his big, black watery eyes filled with pity to the max.
They said, 'You promised to help me to win over Xing Bi!'
Ai nodded and looked at Xing Bi. "Xing Bi. Please don't be mad at Nian anymore. I know everything he did at the banquet. He confessed to me and said how really sorry he felt for tricking you. He regrets his mistake."
Nian bobbed his head up and down. "Yes, yes!"
"As for the time he taught me to make chocolates, I don't mind him getting harsh with me. He was just trying to help me," she looked away, clearly having trouble saying the next part, "My skills in baking and making sweets are questionable indeed…"
Jun raised his brow. "Oh, so you finally admit it?"
Nian seriously agreed. "She is a sweets murderer."
"What did you call her?" Xing Bi's face twisted.
Nian panicked. "I-I mean she just lacks practice hehe…"
Yeah, I don't think any amount of practice is really gonna help her, Jun thought.
Ai coughed. "Nian helped me make chocolates for Jun, and I appreciate all his help even after bringing him to a state of a heartattack."
Nian sniffled and wiped his eyes.
Ah that cruel time of my life. How my poor chocolates suffered by her hands…
"So, don't mind him scolding me. He was just being a good teacher. My mother is a professor herself, so I know how teachers are."
Xing Bi pursed her lips. "Don't take his side, Ai. He is nothing but a troublemaker!"
"But he really regrets his actions. That's why I am asking on his behalf to forgive him."
Nian gave her a pleading look as well.
Xing Bi folded her arms and narrowed her eyes. "Why do you want my forgiveness anyway? I am just a random person you met by coincidence."
Nian widened his eyes. "How could you say that, my dear!? You are not just a random person in my life. You are my dearest woman who will be my wife in the future!"
He moved past Ai, grabbed her hand and said, "I have fallen in love with you ever since we met that night. That was a fateful night for me. Ever since then, I have been dreaming of my future with you. I want to date you, I want to kiss you, I want to marry you, and I want to make lots of babies with you. I, Liu Nian, is in love with you, Xing Bi!"
