Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Chapter 422 A Not So Pleasant Surprise

On the other side, Liu Corps.

After a long meeting got winded up, Jin pulled in a breather and leaned back on the chair. He rubbed his temples and stretched his arms. As a matter of habit, he scrolled down the news section on his phone, and his eyes went wide when he saw the breaking news of Chyou and Cheng Yin firing up everywhere.

The hell...That bastard!?

His brows heavily frowned with the mismatch in timeline. In the last life, it wasn't so soon when Chyou and Cheng Yin got together.

It was a year later I guess when Chyou confessed to this freak.

Then he was puzzled even more.

Wasn't it Chyou who had confessed to him? Why is it Cheng Yin this time? And why so earlier? Is something changing in her life too?

The only thing he knew was about Gu Rong's marriage proposal which was there in his last life too. But Chyou and Yating never got to know each other. They hadn't even met, much less been friends.

Though they did meet this time, Jin couldn't see any difference.

? It's not like Chyou and Gu Yating agreed to this proposal even if they met, he thought.

Whatever the reason was, there was one thing that Jin knew for sure and that was never to let Cheng Yin be a part of Chyou's life this time.

His icy gaze emanated hostility as he thought of Chyou's tragic fate. If not for Cheng Yin, Chyou wouldn't have had to suffer so much.

Jin immediately dialed Jun's number, but he didn't receive it after many rings either. He furrowed his brows. Then he called Yunru.

"Is Bro around?"

"Bro Jin! I don't know what happened, but Bro Jun suddenly took off from Sky. Did you read the news? Sis Chyou and the actor Cheng Yin got together!"

"Yeah," his palm clenched into a fist.

"Yes, so I told him the news and somehow, his expression totally went ugly!" Yunru's shock was evident from the way Jun behaved. "Then he told me to handle things here for sometime and dashed off..."

"I see," Jin nodded to himself.

He must be charging towards Chyou's set now. If he is there, I don't have to worry.

"Thanks, Yunru."

"Hey hold on!" He protested. "What is going on here? Why are you not so surprised? What made Bro Jun so furious?"

Only if I could tell you about the past life...

Jin vaguely replied. "We just don't like Cheng Yin. He might be a good actor but he is nowhere good enough for Chyou. Bro coincidentally found out one day that he takes drugs."

And he did much more shitty things with Chyou which make us want to kill him, his fist trembled with rage.

A sharp gasp echoed from the other side of the call. "What!? Drugs?"

"Yeah. Naturally, we don't want Chyou to waste her time and feelings for such a pathetic man."

"Of course!" Yunru's nostrils flared. "Sis Chyou is super sweet and super pretty! If Cheng Yin is involved with this shady stuff, then he doesn't deserve her, hmpf! Then it's good that Bro rushed right away."

Jin smiled. "Yup. Take care of things for Bro while he is away. I will call you later."

He hung up, feeling more relieved now. He sneered as he thought of Cheng Yin.

You got free rein last time but not again, you fucker. Not again.

His thoughts were then interrupted as he heard a familiar voice outside. His body immediately froze, and his jaw dropped.

No way in hell...

He rushed outside and there was his nemesis standing right before him and flirting with his secretary.

"Have you thought of using a peach shade clutch? It will definitely go with this dress. Plus your skin tone would match greatly with it," Zhou Yichen smiled.

The secretary screamed in her mind and was rolling on the floor, covering her blushing face.

Aaaahhhhhh!! Who is this charming man? Fuck, he is so dashing! I cannot even tell his age. He looks so young!

"Y-you are right. How do you know about women's fashion?"

He lazily said, "I have worked in the marketing and advertising division for a popular fashion brand. I know some stuff here and there~" he winked.

Zhou Yichen's charisma was short-circuiting her brain circuit.

Jin watched his secretary getting completely smitten by Zhou Yichen with a tomato red face and steam escaping her head.

"..."

This cannot be...Don't tell me he was serious when he said he wants to work in the Liu Corps!?

Zhou Yichen's gaze fell on Jin, and he shone. "Jini-boy! It's me! Your favorite Uncle Zhou!"

He gnashed his jaw.

When did you become my favorite Uncle!?

Jin walked up to them, throwing daggers at Zhou Yichen. He glanced at his blushing secretary.

"Wen Cui-"

"You are so knowledgeable, Mr. Zhou..." she totally couldn't hear Jin's voice calling her, neither saw him approaching them.

Zhou Yichen waved his hand. "My pleasure, young lady."

Jin intervened. "You-"

"Can I get your autograph!" She exclaimed.

"..."

He is not even a movie star...

Zhou Yichen grabbed a notepad, tore off a page and signed on it after which he pressed the page in her palm. "Done~ I can never disappoint a fan of mine."

"I will forever cherish this autograph, Mr. Zhou!" She cried.

"Wen Cui!" Jin raised his voice, making her jump up in her spot. Then she stiffened upon finally noticing Jin.

"S-S-Sir Liu J-Jin..."

He smiled. "You finally heard me."

Her brow twitched. "I-I remembered I have to make the presentation for today's meeting!" She scurried away to protect her life and job.

"Aish, Jini-boy you scared her," Zhou Yichen commented, seeing her escape. "That's not how you talk to women or you will never get a girlfriend, Jini-boy."

Jin tried to calm down. "What is Uncle Zhou doing here?"

"He is here to work with us from now on," an equally hopeless voice came from the back as Jinhai arrived.
