Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 461 - An Annoying Reunion

Yunru said, "And this doesn't make sense. Keung admitted in the police station that he recognized her as his Aunt."

Zhiyuan had a serious expression. "Xinyi had also said that he Keung said that he told Mrs. An about what happened seven years back with Caihong. If that is true, and she wants revenge, then she has not forgotten her memories. So Long Qiu is just a fake identity."

"But he had feigned about her remembering not anyone."

"Is he trying so hard for us not to get her as a witness?"

Yunru smiled. "Well he can try all he wants, but it won't be so easy to slip from my eyes. Feigning anything is difficult all the time. 24x7. She might subconsciously do something that only Mrs. An would do, and she won't realize it. Like she came to the mountain like Uncle An guessed as it meant a special spot for them, but she covered it up at the last moment. It was my fault. We were too hasty."

"What are you saying, Yunru? You didn't do anything wrong. Nabbing her at that time was the right thing to do. If she had disappeared again, who knows when we would have seen her again? It was like a cat and mouse game. At least now, she cannot hide from the police."

He patted his shoulder. "Don't be so hard on yourself."

"Thanks. Anyway, you shouldn't worry about this matter. Focus on your new company, and now you have to focus on my niece too."

Zhiyuan sheepishly grinned. "Yes, I have to do so many things now that Xinyi is pregnant."

He laughed. "Just look at you. Why do you suddenly seem like a teenage boy?"

He cleared his throat. "I-I am just excited. And don't just talk about me! You heard what Grandpa said, right? I am waiting for my nephew/niece too~"

He coughed. "Brother-in-law…not you too. Shouldn't you be more possessive and difficult like how an elder brother is usually shown in the dramas? You should be saying, 'Don't you dare touch my sister, or I will kill you!'"

Zhiyuan chuckled. "Well, that usually happens in dramas. But is your Princess anything but usual?"

"Nope," Yunru didn't think twice about answering that question.

Zhiyuan winked. "Then don't hesitate so much. Grandpa really doesn't care much about the order of things. Neither do I because I know that you treasure her so much. That's why we don't worry about you running away from your responsibility hoho~"

Yunru smiled. "Such a chilled out brother."

"I know right?"

"I wonder if you would be so chilled out regarding your daughter too?"

"..."

His expression darkened. "Of course not! I won't let even any boy approach my precious little Xinyi."

"This is not being chilled."

"I don't care."

"You are behaving more like Liang now. Don't. It's annoying."

"..."

His eyes twinkled. "And…I have a strong feeling that you would lose anyway."

His mouth twitched. "What do you mean?"

"Did you forget about a certain boy's proposal about asking your daughter's hand in marriage?"

His expression darkened by several shades now. "Don't talk about that Liu Jun! That brat had the nerve to say such a thing! As if I would ever hand over my daughter to such an arrogant kid."

"That is not a really good thing to say about your son-in-law, future father-in-law."

A chilling voice came from behind that could be at par with an adult's. The small steps stopped behind Zhiyuan and as he turned to look down, he saw that familiar annoying face greeting him expressionlessly.

Jun adjusted his spectacles without breaking his gaze from Zhiyuan. "Greetings."

Zhiyuan stood like a log of wood. Like a statue. He slowly turned his head towards Yunru. "What is he doing here?"

Yunru was amused. "Wow. It's as if you have an antenna on your head. Are you here because…"

Zhiyuan gritted his teeth furiously. "You have no business coming here!"

"Why not, future father-in-law?"

"Don't call me that!"

"It's disrespectful to address you any other way," he sincerely said. "Also, I have every business coming here."

Yunru noticed the dressing on his left hand. "How did you get injured?"

Which was when Zhiyuan finally saw it too.

Jun seemed unfazed. "Some kids in my class got too excited while fooling around, and I got hurt. My teacher brought me here with tears in her eyes."

"Ah? Why was she crying?"

"Because she was shit scared about my Dad taking away her job or doing something else to her. The name Liu Jinhai is terrifying to her."

He choked.

"Of course, there was no reason to get so scared. Dad is a reasonable person when it's not regarding Mom and Nuo. So long they aren't hurt. As for his sons? He doesn't care," he shrugged.

They choked again.

Jun narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why are you two here? Who is hurt?"

Zhiyuan was about to tell him to mind his own business when Yunru said, "Sis fainted so she was brought here."

Jun stared at him hard. Then he looked at Zhiyuan. "Oooohhh. Is Aunt Xinyi perhaps…pregnant?"

Zhiyuan glared at him. "Why can't she faint due to any other reason?"

His lips, for the first time, ever so slightly curled into a light smile. "It's because I am here."

"..."

"Don't you see the signs, future father-in-law? I got hurt and in the hospital at the same time when this news came. And…" he raised his left hand, "I hurt my left hand, mostly my left ring finger."

"So?"

"Mom says a couple put the ring in each other's left ring fingers."

"..."

"Which is a sign that my future wife is here."

"Which can also be a sign that I might break your left hand in the future if you don't stop pursuing my daughter."

"Pfftt!" Yunru burst into laughter.

Jun said, "Don't be so violent, future father-in-law. We are gonna be families."

"In your dreams!"

"It will be reality soon," he wasn't affected.

Zhiyuan felt his blood pressure rising. He trembled in rage. "If you don't go away right now, I will just throw you out."

"How can I leave without meeting my future mother-in-law? I need to say hi to my future wife too."

"Why you!"

A voice similar to that of little Jun but deeper, colder and more mature called out. "Jun."

Jun raised his brow and looked back.. "Dad."
