Chapter 685 Apology
Jin awaited Ren Alix to come forward and apologize even though there didn’t seem to be any sign of her doing so. The situation seemed to arrive at a stalemate.
“I-I didn’t do anything wrong…! She was indeed seducing Yuze!” Ren Alix stubbornly kept pushing the blame, much to ignite Jin’s fury.
Kang Xue quickly pulled Alix back and said, “Alix has not been in a good condition for a few days so-”
“You want to give me an excuse that she is sick? That’s why she attacked Shui?” He smiled. “Sorry but I don’t buy this. She was agitated just like this yesterday when she was chasing after Kang Yuze, then it seems that she stalked him all the way to the meeting location and targeted Shui just because they talked for some time. I don’t think she was really sick.”
Kang Xue’s gaze filled with a chill, biting her lip inward. “Like I said, I apologize on her behalf.”
Her stubbornness to defend Ren Alix irked him further. “I. Don’t. Care. She could have done much more dangerous to Shui and then what? Would you have been still standing here as her lawyer? Well if she refuses to apologize, then I will drag her all the way to jail. There won’t be a problem pressing charges for physical harm and harassment and defamation against her.”
Kang Xue’s eyes widened. She gritted her teeth, feeling the situation going out of control. “You…! You really have no heart, do you!? I am telling you that she is sick and you still refuse to take my apology!”
“How about I throw some water on you and charge at you to strangle you?” He sneered. “And then claim that I am just sick and didn’t mean it. I cannot believe you could be so shameless to outrightly lie to protect this woman. Ren Alix was harassing your brother yesterday and now she is doing the same to Shui. The most irritating thing is that she is not showing any remorse, and I don’t want an apology from someone wanting to cover it up.”
Thin lines creased on her forehead. She definitely didn’t want to take this matter to the police. On top of that, more people kept adding to check the drama happening.
She pulled Ren Alix and whispered in her ear. “Alix for my sake. Please apologize to Han Shui.”
“Xu-Xue, no! She was really-”
Kang Xue squeezed her hand and assured. “Please just listen to me. I know something is wrong within your family. We cannot let this situation escalate and make the Liu’s and the Han’s against us. Please, please just apologize. With Bro’s help, I will expose the person playing games in your family! I just need your help. That’s why for now, please just listen to me…”
Ren Alix bit her lip hard. Eventually, she conceded seeing the desperation in her gaze. She nervously looked at Shui, shifting her weight from one foot to another. “I…I am sorry. I am sorry f-for throwing water at you a-and accusing you…” she balled her fist, breathing hard.
Jin narrowed his eyes. Shui released a sigh and nodded. “It’s okay. I will drop this matter here.”
She tugged Jin’s hand and urged. “Ren Alix has apologized now. Let’s leave. I don’t want to stay here any longer.”
He noticed her slightly going pale and fearful of possibly catching a cold, he said, “Hm. Let’s go.”
He threw a squinted and cold gaze at Kang Xue and without saying anything further, he grabbed Shui’s hand and left. The hotel staff breathed a sigh of relief with the tense situation finally coming to an end. Everybody quickly went back inside the hotel to carry on with their regular tasks.
As they were finally left alone, Kang Xue left a string of curses for Jin, who strangely acted too hostile to her more than necessary. “Ugh! Liu Jin! I feel like beating him up!”
At the same time, she received a call from her brother, and the steam of her fury changed into anxiousness. .
Shit, did Bro learn what happened?
“Xue, where are you? We have to leave and you are gone for a long time now. Is everything okay?”
“Everything is fine Bro. I…just came out to talk to Alix for a while…”
Ren Alix stiffened. Listening to Kang Yuze on the other side made her feel ecstatic, but there was no way that he wanted to talk to her.
“Xue,” Kang Yuze said with a hint of coldness, “I told you I want you to keep contact with her.”
“She is not a bad woman, Bro,” she defended.
“When will you understand that she is using you?”
There was silence for a moment as she didn’t answer, and she heard a sigh from the other end. “Let’s talk about this later. Come back for now.”
Kang Xue knew she would be pushing him with this, nevertheless she asked, “Can Alix accompany us as we return?”
“Xue! You are being impossible now! Sometimes I don’t understand if you are my sister or hers…”
“We have to return to the same place so what does it matter? I promise Alix won’t bother you,” she eyed Ren Alix, and she tremblingly nodded.
Now, the sigh sounded even more frustrated. “Fine. But I really don’t want to talk to her, and I hope she respects that because she wasn’t being so mindful yesterday.”
“Yes, Bro.”
Finally they hung up, and she signaled. “He agreed. Let’s go. Bro is waiting for us. We will decide what to do when we return.”

Beijing.
As Jin returned to the Liu villa, Nana greeted him with a warm smile and a kiss on his cheek. “How was the trip?”
“It was good,” he smiled back.
Ai hopped to his side and asked with a sparkling gaze, “How was the trip apart from the business stuff?”
He glared at her. “Why would it be different? Everything was normal.”
She pursed her lips. “I mean you would have enjoyed a lot with Shui so tell us all the fun things that happened.”
His gaze flickered thinking of the kiss and he looked away. “I am tired. I will go and freshen up.”
Nana sighed seeing Jin escape their questioning. “Did nothing change between them?”
Ai thoughtfully said, “I think something did but…Jin doesn’t want to recognize it.”
A hint of sadness traced Nana’s eyes. “I want to see my Jin happy. But…when will that day come?”
