Chapter 161 The Valentine's Day Arc (17) : Mr. Liu's Answer

Jun was losing his mind.

The more he listened to Yating talk, the more his fingers itched with a bloodthirsty aura surrounding him. His gaze that looked Ai with love gave him the urge to tear off his eyes from his body. The hands with which he was holding Ai's delicate shoulders made him want to cut off Yating's arms. The closer he stood to Ai, the more violence braced his heart.

Fury and fear gushed into him like adrenaline as he recalled Mrs. Quan Su's words.

'Ai is a gem. And if you realize it too late or your feelings, you will lose her forever.'

'When you are all by yourself, you seem lost and alone. But when she is by your side, it feels that you have found a place to belong to.'

'That's why you should listen to me. Don't let Ai go. You might not realize the importance now. But one day, if another man stepped into her life and took her away, your heart would be only filled with regrets.'

It was happening just the way she had said. Yating's each and every word felt like a knife stabbing his heart. The feelings that slowly began to overwhelm him from fury and fear were jealousy and possessiveness.

Huh? You cannot look at her that way. Only I can.

You cannot hold her that way. You cannot touch her that way because only I can touch her. _{is mine…}

The realization shook him hard. Ever since that night they spent in the crescent swing, Jun illusioned himself that these feelings erupted within him only because he saw her dancing with Jin.

Jin was Jun's sore point. Whenever Jin came into the picture, Jun felt afraid and insecure to lose anymore than he already had. So when he saw them together, he felt Ai slipping away from his hands.

He just didn't want Ai to lose to Jin. He thought his feelings were only due to Jin and the trauma he suffered by losing Shui at his hands. He would be fine if it was anybody else. As long as it wasn't Jin, it wouldn't matter if it was anybody else in Ai's life.

Just not Jin.

But he felt those intense emotions once again that reminded him of the banquet watching Yating confess his feelings to Ai.

It's not Jin. It's not just Jin…I…

I cannot see her with anybody else. I don't want Ai to be anybody else's but…mine.

She is mine. She is only mine!

Not Jin's! Not Yating's!

Ai is only mine. Liu Jun's!

And so the moment Yating asked for Ai's answer, his fingers had already clenched themselves into his palm, and the raging fist struck Yating with all its force, carrying his possessiveness in it.

Yating was knocked off his balance to the side but somehow supported himself with his left foot that firmly held the ground. His face was tilted to the left side, a searing pain covering his cheek where Jun had punched.

Ignoring the pain, he sharply jerked his head to where Jun was, who was watching him with an icy but fiery gaze at the same time.

Ai failed to understand what just happened for two seconds. Then Jun's cold aura permeated in the atmosphere, making his presence known. The air had turned so heavy as if one was climbing a mountain higher and higher where it would be difficult to breathe.

They both stared at him, one stunned and one furious. _?

"Jun…" Ai whispered.

It was only a whisper, nevertheless Yating caught it. He rapidly blinked his eyes in bewilderment.

Saying Jun's name meant that she knew him. The fear that he had locked deep in his heart surfaced once again.

Is that why she wanted to go to Sky?

When he learned that Ai was also Butterfly, he made the connection with what Jun was talking about. Which meant that they knew each other, but he wanted to shrug it off.

They knew each other. Ai submitted a draft to Sky, and then Jun fought for her sake.

Impossible…

Jun grabbed Ai's arm and pulled her behind him in a fast and fluid motion, rendering Yating helpless to stop him.

"That's the wrong person you are pouring your useless heart to," Jun's voice laced with a lethal ring to it. "Touch her again, and I will wring that sorry life out of you with my own hands."

Ai shivered. There were times she had seen him angry. Whether it was outside the coffee shop or when he confronted

Ai about her and Jin dancing together.

But tonight, the level of the murderous aura he poured out was unlike any other times.

Yating stared at them blankly. Then his expression became just like Jun's. Deadlier and dangerous.

"Liu Jun. Ai is not the wrong person I am confessing to. You are the wrong one who shouldn't be grabbing Ai to his side as if he owns her," he snarled. "Get the fuck out of her way!"

Jun leaned, his dark gaze straight at him. "And if I don't? What will you do? What a pathetic man like you can even do?"

Ignoring his jab, Yating tilted his head. "I don't understand the meaning behind your presence here, Mr. Liu. There is nothing or nobody of interest to you here."

Jun stared at him and chuckled. "Nobody of interest? That's a misconception you are having, isn't it? Didn't you hear Ai's story?"

He stiffened.

"I assume you did. You claimed that you understood her and her stories."

Ai frowned. Then it struck her as she recalled Jun telling how Yating met him during the banquet night.

"So tell me. Did you understand the story that Ai told tonight? Did you get it who she was talking about? If Mr. Gu doesn't understand, then I will spell it out for you. Ai was talking about herself. It was her story. The 'She' was Ai and the 'He'..." Jun smiled with an ominous ring to it, "Was me."

Yating froze.

"At the end of the story, 'She' confessed to 'He', and is now waiting for 'his' response. That's why 'He' is here to find her to answer her confession. I think it will be of great interest to you to hear…no, watch that answer with your own eyes."

Saying that, Jun grabbed the back of Ai's head and pulled it towards him, capturing her lips in a deep and fiery kiss.
