Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Chapter 668 Fortune Check

?

The change in Jin's mood swings was even faster than a woman on her periods who looked like he was dealing with a giant leap of bouncing back and forth hormones in him. His fiery gaze tracking every moment of that man touching Shui's hand felt as if he was dumped into a cyclone of fire.

"What are you doing?" He asked with a rough edge to his voice.

"What do you mean what I am doing? I switched seats just like you wanted. Then why are you showing that grumpy face to me?" Shui couldn't believe his audacity.

"I didn't ask you, I am asking this man," Jin spit a vicious glare at him.

The other passengers coming in and placing their bags in the overhead luggage cabin could feel the crackle in the atmosphere. It felt as if electricity was coursing through the air that would strike in the form of his wrath at any moment. They gulped in fear and quickly went back to do their own work.

One courageous man tried to film the drama for fun, hoping for it to go viral, but Jin's doom-filled voice reverberated the chill within the closed space of the flight. "Turn your phone off before I turn it off forever."

A knife-like shudder steeply beckoned him to drop his phone. He fumblingly picked it up and rushed back to his seat's solace.

Jin then directed his pressurizing command towards the man beside Shui, who seemed to hold him with interest instead of alarm.

"Hey, you don't have to be jumpy~ Why are you getting so riled up? Are you her boyfriend?"

His mouth twitched hard. Before the possibility of an explosion happening, Shui quickly replied. "We are friends. We have known each other since childhood."

"Ah such a beautiful friendship," he smiled. "Is that why he is so protective towards you?"

Her expression soured.

He is protective for a different reason, but why would this stubborn prince admit it?

"Or maybe it's jealousy?" 

"Or maybe you are shamelessly hitting on a beautiful girl who happened to sit beside you. Did you think you got lucky?"

The man's eyes gleamed like gold. "Luck is an interesting topic. It works mysteriously just like fate, don't you think?"

"I don't care. You just stop hitting on her before I hit your face," the black clouds looming on top of his head turned to become darker and darker.

Shui urgently whispered to diffuse the situation. "Jin! Go back to your seat. Anymore and the air hostesses might come to rebuke us!"

"Tell him not me!"

"Oh for God's sake he is just doing palm-reading! He is into this fortune stuff, which I found interesting!"

And maybe I held a small hope too to know if I would get lucky on this trip…

Nevertheless, the anger fuming out of his ears made her feel pleased. A few minutes ago, he was adamant to be away from her and he was the one himself urging her to come back. The age-old jealousy trick surely worked for her good even though it wasn't intentional on her part.

Reminds me of the time when Jun used to be the same…Oh wait. He is still the same. Ai is the witness.

And Jin was being exactly like Jun right now.

Sometimes, I get amazed with the similarities between them even though I am aware that they are brothers…

The man gave Jin a business-like smile. "Oh yes. I wasn't having any not so innocent intentions towards this young lady. I sensed deep trouble in her heart, and I wished to help. Now it is as clear as the sun that you are the source of her trouble.*

Jin's face twisted in God knew how many furious creases. "Excuse me?"

Shui choked hard with the man's bravery. It was a monumental task to stand up to the Liu family men and here he was relaxed, seemingly unaffected by the fear of any consequences.

"I read a treacherous path ahead for this lady. I was just giving her some tips~"

"Get lost! Shui, come with me."

"How about I read your palm too?" He offered.

Shui clapped with delight. "Yeah that will be fun."

Jin's gaze darkened. "That will be hell, not fun. 

"Oh come on now don't be a spoilsport," with twinkling eyes, he grabbed Jin's hand and pulled him to sit on the aisle seat. He was in the middle while Shui occupied the window seat.

The passengers silently gasped with his valor.

Jin's face contorted with all possible shades of red. 

I wanted to pull out so why the hell I got pulled in instead!?

He tried to shake his hand away, but the man strangely seemed to have more strength than Jin. He blinked rapidly, feeling the pressure oozing onto his wrist through his fingers.

The Liu family brothers had trained themselves to their core to become the physically strongest. The underworld training was far from being a flowery garden and that time in the same dark dungeon had hardened their minds and bodies. They were amidst thugs and goons their entire life and as such, they had forged a physical strength that was almost impossible to beat.

Who is this man? Jin questioned himself, alarm bells ringing in his mind.

Shui eagerly asked, "Tell me what his lines say?"

"With pleasure!"

He forcibly opened his fingers and stared at his palm. He traced the different points and lines of his dominant hand's palm and said with intrigue. "The Mount of Venus on the base of your thumb suggests some passionate days ahead~."

Shui curiously asked, "What is Mount of Venus?"

"It links to love, attraction and romance. I can sense the energy from this point which feels to be throbbing at the moment. I guess something interesting is going to happen which will take him to an adventurous ride on a rollercoaster of fatal and fiery attraction~"

Jin - "..."

Jin peered into his eyes and the craftiness in those irises felt similar to…

No, no! Fuck, that's impossible!
