Chapter 108: Liu Jing

Nana blinked her eyes. “Who?”

The young man snapped back to look at her. He smiled with the corner of his mouth slightly curved upward and his gaze glinting in amusement.

“Why don’t you guess?”, he asked mischievously.

She furrowed her brows. She slightly tilted her head and asked, “Are you perhaps…Mr. Liu Jinhai’s younger brother, Liu Jing?”

His eyes shone. He chuckled, “Yes.”

Nana was stunned. So, this guy is younger than me? He is so tall and already looks so manly even though he is only twenty. I thought he was a little older than me. And why did the younger brother come here?

But she was happy to see him. His mischievous and naughty side reminded her of her twins.

She gave him a wide smile and said happily, “It’s really nice to meet you, Liu Jing. I’m Nana. I have heard about you a lot from Mr. Liu Hai and Mr. Liu Jinhai.”

Jing raised his brows. Her smile is so refreshing. Totally not like those hypocrite socialites giving that fake and stiff smile.

“The pleasure is mine…Sister Nana.”, he cutely tilted his head, “I can call you that, right?”

An imaginary arrow struck Nana’s heart. So…so cute! He looks like a puppy asking me to pet him. Aaah…the Liu genes are indeed extraordinary.

She smiled, “Sure.”

His eyes sparkled in delight. “Thank you, Sister!”

She chuckled. “Oh yes. You were asking something. What was it…Yes! Why does he like me? Who are you talking about?”

Jing smiled. “Mmm, let me see…My father?”

She blinked. “You don’t know?”

“Just kidding. Of course, I’m sure. My father is only talking about you nowadays. You are the beginning, the middle and the end of our conversation.”, He cleared his throat, “How he really liked you for me.”

Nana’s mouth twitched. So he actually talked to him about our possible marriage?

“I was really curious to meet you. So, I came here with my girlfriend. I just returned last night from Paris.”

“Girlfriend?”

“Yup.”, he looked proud.

She looked here and there but there was nobody other than the two. “Where is she?”

He took a set of keys out of his pocket and said, “This. My Lamborghini. My love. My car. She is parked outside. I just got this gift from my brother for my… work well done.”, he winked.

“Ah..”, she chuckled.

“I’m going to design even her covers. She is exclusively mine.”

“Oh yes. Your brother said that you did a fashion designing course.”

“Uh-huh. Of course no doubt I was the best student. And…”, he shrewdly looked at her and said, “I would love to design your wedding gown.”

Nana widened her eyes. Yes, my wedding with…Chen Jianyu.

“You don’t have to worry. I will design the best gown for you, and I know…you will be the happiest bride ever.”

Mother Chen had come to Liu villa today to discuss the banquet celebration with her. Mother and Father Liu and Huian were also there.

“Mom. Here is the list of all people invited for the Chen celebration banquet. Just cross-check if I forgot any.”

“En. When is it organized?”

“The twenty-third of next month.”

She frowned. “Why didn’t you ask me before setting the date? You know what? In today’s newspaper, I read that the seventh of the next month is really auspicious. I don’t fully understand but the stars are aligned to give a very positive vibe that day. Whatever you choose to do that day, it will go unhitched without any problems.”

Grandma Liu was quite a believer in auspicious days. The others were too but she always insisted that every banquet must be held on a astrologically good day.

Mother Chen sighed. “It’s alright, Mom. It is not a big deal.”

“It is! Hmph. You people never believe me. Every event that we have held until now, was always a success. Only because I made it sure that the day was opportune.”

“Mom. Today is the thirtieth. If we change the date now then seventh is really too soon. We won’t have enough time to organize the event. And at such short notice, many guests will not be able to make it.”

She waved her hand, “Everything can be done. Just pour in some more money and everything gets ready whenever you want.”

Mother Liu shook her head.

Suddenly, Huian felt a gust of wind pass behind her and she shivered. She looked back and fell from the chair in shock.

“Ah!!”

She was startled when somebody suddenly pounced on her.

“Huian, are you hurt?”

Everybody looked in surprise to see the source of the confusion.

“Jing!!”, Mother Liu and Grandma Liu exclaimed.

“Son.”, Father Liu smiled.

Jing completely removed his horror mask that he used to scare Huian and gave a huge grin to all.

“So ugly and hideous Huian, do you like my come back gift?”, he winked.

“You! Do you find this funny!? You scared the hell out of me.”, she screamed angrily.

“That was the plan you dumb woman”, he snickered, “which worked beautifully, didn’t it? How does my smart and intelligent brother bother to live with a buffoon like you?”, he bluntly said without any filter.

“Youuu!!!”, she clenched her fists.

This brat! He should forever live in Paris and never come back.

“Awww, you must be thinking about how I should have never come back, right?”, he smirked.

She gritted her teeth.

The relationship between them was always edgy. He always played pranks and irritated the hell out of her during their childhood. He never liked her. Plain and simple. When he learned that Jinhai married her, his dislike turned into utter hate.

Mother Liu said, “Of course not. But Jing, you were really too much. Say sorry to your sister-in-law.”

Jing suddenly turned grave. “Mom. I already told you a hundred times that I don’t accept her as my sister-in-law. I never had and I never will.”
