Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Chapter 489 MrPerfect's Confrontation (2)

As expected, Zixin's mind went blank. To learn that he had a woman he loved before his accident was a shocking revelation to believe. He couldn't recollect anything about this woman either which caused visible creases of strain and distress to appear on his handsome face.

Then a sense of panic arose in his heart because deep down, he questioned if he could carelessly fall in love with another woman after he lost his memories and discarded the first woman he loved just like that? He felt disdainful towards himself that he could be so frivolous and insensitive.

Jun shook his shoulders and broke his daze. "Bro, you are unnecessarily panicking. Did you hear the part where I said that the two women could be the same?"

"...When did you say that?" He asked in a stupor.

"See, you missed that. That's why I need you to answer my questions. Bro if I can, I can tell you the whole truth right here and now, but that will only stress you out because you don't remember anything. You will look at me like I am an idiot. So let's go step by step, okay? I will tell you what I have to, but don't try to forcibly remember anything and put pressure on your brain."

Chyou agreed with Jun. "Yes, Zixin. You need to be calm and listen. The last thing we want is to make you sick."

"...Okay."

Jun nodded. He asked after letting Zixin settle down, "Did you ever feel different whenever you were with Cai Guiying?"

Zixin paused. "Sometimes. When I met her at the hospital under the cherry blossom tree, I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but it felt peaceful to talk to her. She looked so warm and gentle just like the cherry blossom petals. After that, I just naturally felt drawn towards her for some reason whenever I met her."

Jun slowly said, "You felt a sense of familiarity."

"Yes…to put it like that. The cherry blossoms too felt vaguely familiar."

Chyou gasped. "Isn't that because you were unconsciously recognizing her from your past but just didn't know from where?"

Yating frowned. "Really?"

"Yeah! The same happened with my Dad. I was six when Dad had lost his memories too. But when he got them back, he always said to me that even during that phase, he always felt a sense of familiarity towards Mom. Towards me too. Even when he recalled nothing about her, he fell in love with her all over again. That was very sweet."

Jun said, "Yes. It's the same with Bro Zixin. It didn't take time for you to start liking Cai Guiying after the accident because your heart has that memory somewhere deep down that you had already fallen for her. That's the important part here, Bro - your feelings for Cai Guiying BEFORE you went through that accident because that was how the identity of MrPerfect was born in the first place."

Zixin blinked. "What?"

"Yes. I am MrPerfect. That's for sure, but I didn't create this identity. You did."

Chyou was stunned. "Say what?"

Yating asked, "How is that possible? If Chen Zixin made that identity then how could you be MrPerfect?"

"Because that's how it was decided between us." Jun looked back at Zixin and said, "I, too, realized this today with someone's help."

That someone was Jin after he explained what he saw in his vision today.

"That the woman Bro was in love with was none other than Cai Guiying. He fell in love with her. Just like how you approached her to help her out with her story to know more about her this time, it was through MrPerfect's identity previously that you communicated with CherryBlossom. The only difference was that you didn't hide yourself this time."

Zixin stammered. "I…I am MrPerfect?"

"Yes," Jun let that sink in for some time before he continued. "Cai Guiying or CherryBlossom was a member of the Reading Point forum. It's a forum where authors and readers chat online. You came to me one day that you wanted my help in opening your account on Reading Point to talk to someone but you didn't say who. I created MrPerfect ID for you. But then later, you said that you didn't need the ID anymore because that person had left."

Ai felt unbelievable how it matched the timeline. "Yes. Guiying had left Reading Point because she had faced some online harassment. I was very furious when I heard, but she didn't want to take any action against it."

"That's why Bro didn't see any point in staying in Reading Point either. You were only there for CherryBlossom's sake. Since you weren't using it anymore, I asked you if I could use that ID and you had agreed. So, I became MrPerfect."

Zixin's eyes widened.

Jun shook his head. "Bro, I never had anything to do with Cai Guiying. I only knew her as one of Dream High's authors but nothing beyond that."

Yating asked in disbelief, "Then what about those letters and gifts Guiying received?"

"That must be definitely Bro Zixin. He continued his communication to her through these things. But I don't know either why he kept using MrPerfect's identity and didn't tell me. He won't have an answer to that either right now because he doesn't remember."

Jun firmly said to wash every speck of doubt Zixin had. "It was always you, Bro, who talked to Cai Guiying as MrPerfect. From the beginning to the end, I had nothing to do with her."

Zixin felt too breathless to respond.

Jun said, "Yunru told me that you were at the Authors' Summit. You didn't tell him the reason for your presence. But now I know. It was to show your support for CherryBlossom."

Zixin trembled.

"Then you were heading to Shanghai. Do you know why you wanted to be at Shanghai? Yunru told me how you looked like you were planning to confess to someone. It was because of the Shanghai Fest where Cai Guiying was present too and you probably wanted to reveal yourself. But then you met with your accident."

Jun took a step closer to him and quietly said, "That's why maybe you were so open this time in chasing after her. I don't know. Maybe the chance lost in Shanghai weighed you down somewhere. But it was always you, Bro. The MrPerfect that Cai Guiying loves is only you."
