Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Nian cried tears of joy. “Thank God that I didn’t betray my Xing Bi!” He sniffled. “I cannot imagine my life without her!”

Nuo grinned and elbowed. “Oof such true love, Bro. Even if you had never met sister-in-law in the past, you still happened to be single.”

Jian snorted. “Of course. Only Xing Bi can handle this brat. No other woman would even bother to spare a glance at him.”

“I only want my Xing Bi to look at me!” He harrumphed in response.

As the trio bickered, Jun asked Jin, “When did you see all this?”

Jin replied. “The night I had that accident and almost crashed into sister-in-law Xing Bi. I saw the whole of the past.”

“I see…”

Jun surely got his answer, but he still had questions.

Why didn’t Ai or I get to see the end?

He shook his head, not dwelling on it further. He pinched his cheek and helplessly smiled. “You should have told me before. You know, I always wanted to know what had happened after we died…How did everybody live in the years to come? How were Bro Jian and Nuo? But I am so glad to know that everything worked out for them. I had broken their futures apart, and I cannot be happier to know that they brought everything back together…”

Jin nodded. “Yes, Bro. If not for the twins and Sis Nuo, Dad wouldn’t have gotten the courage to move on. Our deaths tore them apart, but our family managed to collect the broken pieces and join them back together. Our family was happy, Bro.”

Nuo, who was squishing the twins’ cheeks, immediately caught the tears in Jun’s eyes. She gasped and threw the twins away.

“Hey!”

Nuo hugged Jun and asked, “Who made my brother cry!”

“Hey, hey it’s nothing!” Jun quickly clarified. “I just felt a little emotional, that’s all.”

“Our little brother cannot cry!” The twins crashed into him, almost choking him in the process.

“Careful you two!” Nuo glared at them and scolded. “You are strangling Bro Jun!”

“It’s the strangle of our sweet love, Nuo!” The twins squeezed Jun from both sides. Jian pulled Jin in their ‘sweet and harmless’ hug too, much to his horror. “Leave me alone!”

Nian pulled Nuo from the other side, albeit with extreme caution lest his father would throw him in the sea full of sharks.

Jian took out his phone and took a selfie of the siblings’ hug. “Tadah! Look, we all five together look so cute!” ．

“…I beg…to differ…” Jun voiced out his complaint, gasping for air.

“Don’t be shy, little brother~ I know you are secretly enjoying this bonding time~”

“I want to exit this bonding time,” Jin ruthlessly said.

“No chance, little brother~”

From outside, Nana watched their violent bonding time and sighed. But seeing the five siblings together also brought a sweet smile on her lips.

It feels like a long time…

“*Ahem*”

She narrowed her eyes, recognizing the clearing of someone’s throat.

“Now that you have forgiven our children, c-can you please forgive me too?” Jinhai asked with a pleading edge to his voice.

Nana looked into his eyes that expressed the torture he had been subjected to ever since she had thrown him out of their room.

She slightly puffed up her cheeks, apparently not willing to forgive him so easily and started walking away.

“Na-Nana!” Jinhai chased behind her and begged her with his watery black eyes. “Please forgive me, Nana. I understand that I was very wrong. I was the cruelest and I am very sorry…Please forgive me. Please, please?”

Nana folded her arms and stared deep into his black irises as if staring right through his soul.

“You threw Jun out of the family.”

Jinhai lowered his head. “I am sorry.”

“And you didn’t bother telling me anything about it or discussing it with me. Something so important about our son’s life.”

“I am really sorry.”

She glared at him. “I feel like leaving you alone for good and only live with my children forever!”

His face paled. “I will die. You left me in the past and I was really alone for the rest of my life…Even though I don’t remember any of it, I pretty much know how hellish it must have felt like.”

“Don’t play the past life card with me to garner sympathy!”

“I am not. I just want you to forgive me…”

Her brow twitched.

Jinhai grabbed her hand and maximized his puppy expression. “Nana, please. I am suffering without you by my side. I have learned my lesson, Nana. I will go crazy if I have to spend another night without you.”

She pursed her lips and felt her heart wavering. “Our children are a very important part of my life, Jinhai.”

He nodded. “I know.”

“I cannot bear you treating any one of them unfairly or unjustly.”

His brows furrowed together in tension. “I-I know…”

She mumbled. “But I also understand where you were coming from…I was super mad at Jun too to learn that he had killed himself.”

He nodded hard at that as if he finally found his common ground.

“As a parent, I would have given him a big, big, earful for that and then hugged him in my embrace, not throw him out like you did,” she threw another glare at him. “It was a time he needed us the most.”

“I-I…”

“But what’s passed away has passed away. Everything is finally the way it was always supposed to be. So…” she said, taking a deep breath, “I forgive you.”

Jinhai almost cried at that. “Nana…”

She rolled her eyes at him feeling so emotional. “You know, you cannot always blame Dad and Jing as the reason for the twins being always dramatic. I think your genes are part of the reason too.”

Jinhai sniffled, rubbing the tip of his nose, “Can I finally sleep with you?”

“…”

Her face reddened like a beet. “Don’t spout nonsense when we are talking outside!”

The twins whistled from the other side. “Go for it, Dad! Don’t worry. We will see to it that nobody bothers you lovebirds. Nobody will question you if you got up late tomorrow morning. And we will definitely not give you any teasing smiles tomorrow either~”

Nana gritted her teeth, pulled out a slipper and threw it at the twins. “Shut up! What are you all doing eavesdropping on our conversation?”

Jin shrugged. “It was their idea.”

“And you joined in,” she shot him a deadly glare.

“We didn’t hear anything,” Jun and Nuo defended themselves together.

Nana threw laser beams at Jinhai. “Look at what you did!”

Jinhai blinked. “What did I do? I meant that I can finally return to our room.”

“But you said it in a misleading way!”

“How can it be misleading when it’s gonna be reality?”

“…”

All the five siblings choked at that. They promptly turned their backs and left.

Good luck, Mom…
