Cai Lingyun had never seen Guiying in such a state before. She looked restless and angry with a sinister light glinting in her eyes.
'Guiying' narrowed her eyes on him. "Am I okay? Bro, shouldn't I ask YOU that question? You just wanted to help Ai, and I feel so bad that she chose to trust a newly made boyfriend rather than you who has known her for years."
"Of course…of course, I am hurt. You saw Liu Jun smiling in that video, right? He still hasn't forgotten Han Shui! And yet he pretends to love Ai. Just how much has he blinded her in his love!? Ai is being fooled.
She refused to listen to a word against him!"
His clenched fists trembled in anger as he remembered her standing up for him.
"That Liu Jun…he must have felt so arrogant. He was caught red-handed, yet Ai made him go unscathed on a silver platter!"
'Guiying' tilted her head. "Indeed. He escaped unscathed of the consequences," the air turned darker and denser as she thought of all the cards and flowers MrPerfect sent.
"He plays around with women as if they are his play toys. That Han Shui…" she sneered. "Even she is too blinded by her friendship. Liu Jun seems to know how to manipulate women well like puppets. He uses them, but they still defend me."
But I won't be like that, MrPerfect. I will make you pay for making me a target of your pathetic game!
This plan might have failed. But not the next one.
Cai Lingyun asked, "But Guiying, how did you get access to the video? Isn't it supposed to be restricted?"
'Guiying' squinted her eyes. "I had some help. You don't need to get into the details. We just have to focus on destroying Liu Jun until his…all so perfect and colorful life doesn't get dyed with despair."
Since GrandCastle was the most nearby hotel from The Creative Sense, it was not unusual that all who were a part of the fest would be staying at this hotel for their trip. Or at least how much the hotel could accommodate.
Including Jin and Cai Lingyun.
The second night in Shanghai had fallen, and Cai Lingyun was smoking a cigarette near the lake. He stared into the distant water ahead, seemingly lost in his memories as the cold wind made him shiver.
He wasn't getting sleep. Everytime he tried, he would always remember what happened today. He couldn't digest the feeling of Ai acting so far away from him as if they were strangers. The more he thought about Ai and Jun together, the more his chest tightened with an ugly feeling. It was not until this moment that he realized how truly important Ai had become a part of his life.
But he wasn't an important part of her life anymore, and that stabbed him like crazy. As if he was going insane. While he was away because of work, Ai had already formed her own world and found someone she loved.
Impossible…Liu Jun is not suited for her! I won't give up. I won't give up on you, Ai. Soon, you will realize that you don't belong to that world.
You belong here. Where Guiying and I are. You will be happier here. That day won't be far.
Unknown to him, a shadow was sinisterly lurking and approaching him ever so slowly. The steps were silent as if not even a fallen leaf rustled on the ground. But the shadow was inching closer and closer.
Cai Lingyun took his last drag when he suddenly felt a sharp and painful jerk at the back of his knee. His eyes almost popped out with that vicious attack. "Ahhh!" Official source is novelFirｅ.net
Before he could properly react, the man grabbed his wrist and twisted it at his back, which brought only more pain. "W-who are you!?"
He sweated instantly, terrified.
"Did you plot that against my brother?" A shrill voice reverberated in the air.
He gasped breathlessly as he raised his head. What he saw was a man who resembled Jun a lot.
Jin was staring down at him with his expressionless gaze, but the more it looked that way, the more Cai Lingyun felt his blood freeze. It was truly an expression that made him feel as if Jin came from hell just to torture him.
"Wh-who are you?" He stammered.
"The man's brother who you tried to defame today. It was you who played that video? Seriously?" He tilted his head that shone him with an even more of a dangerous streak.
Jin gazed at him up and down as if he was looking at some pest. "Who the hell do you think you are to mess with him? Who are you to question him? Sure, I have questioned him too, but I can do that because I am family. But you are not."
Without a warning, Jin landed a punch on his abdomen that made him fall backwards. Cai Lingyun coughed hard, and a thin line of blood trickled down the side of his lips.
"S-stop! Why are you hitting me ?" He clutched his stomach in pain.
"Because I am pissed off. You don't come even close to his foot for you to humiliate Bro Jun," he kicked his thigh with his foot, his eyes turning cloudier. "Plus, you tried to defame him using Shui? That's even worse of a mistake you could have made."
He clutched his hair, making him yelp in pain. "That has pissed me off even more. So I should teach you a lesson, right?"
Cai Lingyun gritted his teeth. "You are going to beat me up just because I tried to bring out your brother's dirty truth in front of everyone? I knew it. Liu Jun and his whole family is-"
He got punched right at his face, forming a big red mark on his cheek. "At this point, you should know you should have stopped talking, but you refuse to. Guess I will have to teach you a lesson," Jin sneered.
He was about to punch him again when a hand caught his wrist. "Jin! What are you doing!?"
The coldness in his eyes turned up several notches. "Han Shui. Let go of my hand."
