Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Chapter 410 In-Laws' Meeting (1)

"Are they here?" Nana asked with excitement as it was almost time. "I cannot wait to meet them."

Nuo grinned. "I wonder how sister-in-law's parents are. She is so calm, composed and elegant. Bet her parents must be the serious type."

Liu Chunhua nodded. "To raise Ai into the person she is, they must definitely be so amazing."

But as soon as they heard the clicks of someone's feet walking entering the villa and coincidentally, their gazes met Zhou Yichen first, the trio were left completely speechless.

It wasn't his clothes as much as Zhou Yichen's style that caught their attention. Short, shoulder-length hair tied into a pony and something like a sort of a small twig between his lips. His face radiated brilliance but with a hint of goofiness in it.

On the completely opposite spectrum was Xie Nuying. Neat, calm and poised - her aura felt similar to Ai's. Her expression was placid as if everything was under her control and nothing hardly fazed her.

Zhou Yichen was the funky type which he proved by greeting them first with his cheery voice. "Hello everyone! I am Ai-chan's father, Zhou Yichen. Nice to meet you all~"

Xie Nuying was the tranquil type which she proved by greeting them with her soft and measured voice. "Hello, nice to meet you. I am Ai's mother, Xie Nuying."

Jun's mouth twitched.

I was supposed to introduce the two parties...

It took a few moments for them to snap out of their stupor. Nana said, "H-Hello!"

Ai's parents studied Jun's family in curiosity while Jun's family observed Ai's parents with wonder.

Jun cleared his throat. "Well, they already introduced themselves. I will just repeat it. Mom, Dad. Meet Uncle Zhou and Aunt Xie - Ai's parents. I met them in Xuanhua before where they live."

Nana beamed. "Yes, yes. Jun told us a lot about you. I am Liu Nana. Nice to meet you."

Beside her was standing Jinhai, who had a similar expression as Xie Nuying. For now.

He slightly nodded and replied with his low, deep voice. "Liu Jinhai. Pleasure to meet you."

Jun then continued. "Uncle, Aunt. They are my Mom and Dad."

Xie Nuying nodded.

Zhou Yichen brightened. "Yup, yup I see where Jun-cute gets his features from. You look like Mr. Liu, but your eyes are like Mrs. Liu. No wonder we like your eyes so much. Eyes are what makes the man Jun-cute. It's the eyes."

Nana sheepishly grinned at being complimented for her eyes that Jun inherited, making a faint scowl appear on Jinhai's devilishly handsome face.

Jun went on as he pointed at the others. "She is my Grandma and she is my little sister, Nuo."

"Hello!!" They greeted in unison.

Xie Nuying softly smiled. "Hello. Thank you for taking care of my Ai."

Liu Chunhua said, "Of course, it's our pleasure."

"Sister-in-law is everyone's favorite here," she grinned. "Of course, we will treat her well."

Zhou Yichen chuckled. "Anger doesn't suit you young ladies."

They blinked. "Anger?"

"Yes. Hehe, I feel you two are annoyed at something or someone."

Their brows twitched.

Indeed that was true. Nuo had to manage back to back calls from Natsukashi because of Jian's 'sudden' absence and Liu Chunhua still cursed Liu Hai for leaving her for food.

Nuo asked in wonder, "Are you a mind reader?"

His nose grew longer in pride. "Deciphering a woman's mood is a piece of cake for me."

"And yet we got divorced," Xie Nuying smoothly commented under her breath.

Zhou Yichen, who definitely heard her remark, shot her a sneaky glare.

He then focused his attention back on Nuo and Liu Chunhua. "Whatever it is that is making you frustrated, just throw that thought of your mind. Your mood and beauty is much more important."

Liu Chunhua blushed. It felt nice to be still called beautiful.

"Also, the curls look great on you, little Nuo."

Nuo was amazed. "You noticed that? They are not so distinct..."

"Nothing misses my eyes~"

She gleamed. "Apart from Dad, you are the first person to notice it. Whenever I change my hairstyle or get a haircut, nobody recognizes any difference!" She harrumphed. "Makes me wonder if people are blind here."

Jun tried to defend himself. "I do notice it-"

"You don't! Only Dad does and now Uncle Zhou too!"

With just a few sentences towards Nana, Liu Chunhua and Nuo, Zhou Yichen impressed the trio in a matter of a few minutes. Jinhai wasn't sure how to feel about his wife, mother and daughter getting swept by Zhou Yichen so easily.

Jun coughed and continued. "He is my little brother, Jin."

Jin nodded just like Jinhai and greeted them with a light smile. "Hello."

"Aish, why are you so serious? Lighten up a little, Jini-boy!" Zhou Yichen laughed. "You and Mr. Liu are so similar."

Jin stared at him. "Jini-boy?"

"Yup, my nickname for you."

"I don't want a nickname. Jin is just fine."

"Heeeey, you are just like Jun-cute. He also protested against my nickname, but look how he adores it so much now~"

Jun refused to comment on that.

"Jini boy..." Nuo and Liu Chunhua tried to hold in their laughter.

Jin gritted his teeth. When his gaze fell on Ai, he saw her waving at him with joy. He scowled at her and then ignored her presence altogether.

I knew it. Zhou Ai's parents are not so innocent either. Calling me Jini boy...

A vein popped on his forehead.

Ai pursed her lips.

Still such a tsundere...

Nana said, "I was wondering why you were calling him Jun-cute. Oh my God, you chose such a perfect nickname for him."

"Mom-"

"I love it!"

"..."

Ai nodded. "We all love it."

His gaze darkened. He decided to punish Ai later.

"He is Uncle Yukito and that's his twin brother, Uncle Yukira. Mom's younger brothers."

Yukito and Yukira smiled. "We finally met you. It's a pleasure."

Zhou Yichen said, "Identical twins. Cool! It's my first time seeing up in person. How I wish Ai had a twin sister too. Then I would have had two daughters! Amazing, right?" He chirped.

Jin vehemently disagreed.

Yeah, one Zhou Ai is enough.

Finally Jun introduced the last member albeit with a little pause and hesitation. "She is my great-grandma."
