Novel Full 480 Need all the luck
*Flashback*
Jin paced back and forth in the corridor with a sense of nervousness constantly gripping him. Shui’s birthday banquet was held in Liu villa tonight because Jun had special plans to propose to her.
But Shui was an unpredictable variable. He had talked to her numerous times, but Shui’s stance was always clear. She couldn’t go on with this relationship any longer. Even so, Jin hoped that she would change her mind after Jun proposed.
She has to agree…she has to agree…
Not able to stand still, he gulped a glass of juice when he saw a woman rushing out of Jun’s room in a hurry. He blinked his eyes, wondering who she was. He couldn’t get a clear view of her face or her dress to identify her.
Was that Shui…?
But Shui was already in the hall, chatting with the guests.
Jin climbed up to the corridor, but the woman was already gone. He heavily knitted his brows.
She was definitely crying, right?
“Jin! What are you doing here? The party is already starting,” his elder sister, Nuo, tapped him on his shoulder.
“Yeah I am coming.”
She pouted. “Where is Bro Jun by the way? I cannot see him anywhere! It’s Shui’s birthday!”
Jin smiled. “He must be busy preparing for her special gift.”
She grinned. “Aish, Bro is so meticulous. Anyway, let’s head to the party!”
“Wait, sis. Did you see a woman coming out of Bro’s room a few minutes ago?”
She slightly widened her eyes with surprise. “A woman? No. You mean, a guest entered Bro Jun’s room?”
“Yeah I saw somebody coming out.”
She was crying too, he thought. But Jin wasn’t sure if he should tell her that.
“Ugh, Bro Jun will get so mad…” she sweated. “Let me check on that. Let’s go back to the party for now.”
“Yeah.”
*Flashback ends*
“Sis said she would look into it but then…” Jin’s voice trailed off.
After Shui rejected Jun, it was all pandemonium and chaos. Nobody would have the time to focus on an unknown stepping out of Jun’s room.
“But I think it should be Cai Guiying only.”
Jun’s expression seemed grim and thoughtful at the same time.
Cai Guiying said I betrayed her.
Shui invited her to her party.
She came into my room and left crying.
It was after that night that I met Cai Lingyun and took him in.
Sky also began to crumble.
*Meow*
The cat with the light brown eyes softly howled at him, staring at him intently. He smiled and gently ruffled her fur.
Jun glanced at Ai, who seemed to be thinking of her own permutations and combinations of what could have happened. He felt she came to some conclusion, but it was far-fetched to believe it so she would shrug it off.
“I think you got something,” Jinhai tilted his head, carefully watching his son’s eyes.
“Yeah I think I do,” Jun replied while still cautiously bringing the sequence of events all together in his mind. “Now that Jin saw the vision and heard Cai Guiying say that I betrayed her, that she seemingly used and threatened Shui, of all people, Shui to target me – I think I get where this is going. Though it’s still hard to believe.”
Jinhai let out a light but mysterious smile. “Truths are always hard to believe.”
Jin frowned. “I don’t get it.”
Jun said, “I don’t blame you. If you ask me, the whole situation feels incredulous and impossible to happen. But it still did by either some very shit strong coincidence or…somebody was really crafty for all these things to fall in place at the right time,” his gaze and so did his voice turned frighteningly cold.
He looked at Ai. “You said you would talk to Cai Guiying about her split personality.”
She silently nodded.
“Let me give you company. I have some questions for her of my own.”
He got up and said, “We will leave, Dad.”
“Hm.”
“Wait, Bro!” Jin stopped him. He scooped up the cat and asked, “Can you take her in? That elderly woman left her, and I don’t know what to do with her. Since you already have a cat, you know better how to take care of one.”
Jinhai curiously raised his brow. “You adopted a cat?”
Ai beamingly said, “I brought him one day. He is really very cute, and he has the same eyes as Jun.”
But Ai wasn’t sure if Jun would agree for another cat when he was already-
“Cool. No problem,” Jun brightened and held the cat in his arms. She immediately snuggled against his chest, softly purring with joy.
Ai – “…”
“Wait, you agree?”
“Yeah, why not? I already met this little one before. She has the same eyes as you. She is also very calm and docile. I would love to take care of her,” he grinned.
“…”
“How come you so vehemently disagreed when I brought my cat?” She pursed her lips, letting out her grievances.
Jun shot a glare at her. “Of course I will! Ever since he came, you did nothing but hop behind him the whole day! It’s like you devoted your entire being to that cat,” he sneered.
Let’s not forget all the private time I missed with you but because Dad is here, I cannot say that.
Though to Jinhai and Jin, they had already figured out what additional thought he was having in his mind.
“Well two can play the game, so I will bring this cat with us. Of course, my first motivation is to take care of her and then take my revenge from you.”
He looked at Jin. “Don’t worry about her. She will be fine.”
Jun smiled down at the cat. “Right?”
*Meow*
The cat’s agreement was visible too.
He gave a haughty stare to Ai and left the office, smirking evilly as he held the cat.
Ai was left completely speechless.
Jun really…
Jinhai glanced at her and said, “All the best. It’s hard to deal with our jealous side so you need all the luck.”
“…”
