Chapter 165 The Valentine’s Day Arc (21) : Happy Valentines Day

Ai gradually put her arms on his shoulders, kissing him back. She welcomed his tongue that invaded and ravished her mouth. They shared a deep, long and breathless kiss, conveying the love they felt for one another. Their hearts beat in sync as their fingers caressed each other's cheeks.

Jun bit her lower lip, smudging the lipstick outside. The temperature grew hotter and hotter and soon, Jun felt that just kissing wasn't enough.

More...I want more...

He tightened his grasp over her waist, and his throaty sounds and moans escaped into her mouth. He kissed her more and more until Ai finally parted to take a mouthful of breath. She could hardly maintain her composure, her gaze glassy and her lips trembling with the ardent kiss.

Jun felt dissatisfied and bumped his forehead on hers. "I don't want to stop."

Expressing his strong desire with a low voice, Ai clutched his shirt in her fist. "The...The Summit is not over yet."

Indeed, it wasn't finished. The results declaration was still left to be done.

Jun frowned. Suddenly, the Summit seemed to be the biggest roadblock in his union with Ai. He had an urge to lift her and directly take her to this condo.

"It was a short break. I think it's already been announced."

Slowly coming back to her senses, she now felt nervous about the results.

Jun narrowed his eyes and pinched her cheek. "Don't you get afraid of the results. Of course, you are going to win! There is no doubt about it."

The confidence in his voice cheered her up, and a soft smile bloomed on her lips. "Did you like my story?" She expectantly asked.

For a few moments, he quietly stared at her. His heart ached to know about her childhood. Though as MissImperfectlyFine, he already knew about her parents' separation, hearing it once again through her story vexed him.

Why wasn't I there for you?

He wished if they could have shared their childhood together. Then he would have never let her be sad.

His own family was perfect. But on the other spectrum was Ai who felt lonely and had to struggle through her circumstances.

Jun leaned and kissed her forehead. He let his lips remain for a few seconds before he pulled back. "It was beautiful."

Joy blossomed in Ai's heart. Her eyes looked brighter, feeling satisfied.

"Thank you."

He smiled as he added. "Though a certain someone has to take revenge for adding him in your story which you weren't supposed to."

Her brow twitched.

"But..." Jun raised his brow, "I will let this go since it made you confess your feelings to me in front of the whole world. That is as good as declaring me as yours, and I like it. So, you are pardoned."

She let out a breath of relief. "Thank you for understanding."

He sneered. "What I won't understand is you playing hide and seek game with me. I don't like you escaping from me, so that punishment still counts. I will thoroughly make you understand so that you won't think about running away from me anymore."

"..."

"Can you not let it go?" She sincerely asked.

"I hold grudges."

She pursed her lips. She resigned to her fate in the end and said, "Let's go back."

"Hm."

She took a step forward when Jun pulled her wrist. She looked back questioningly.

"You forgot something."

Ai blinked. "I did? I am sorry. What is it?"

Jun pulled her back in his arms and dipped his head to kiss her lips. As he withdrew, his deep brown eyes looked at her. "Happy Valentine's Day."

Her eyes slowly widened.

Since the Authors' Summit fell on Valentine's Day, she found it to be the perfect chance to confess her love. Not only did she confess, she also got the answer she wanted to hear. She received the reciprocation of her feelings.

Tears filled her eyes that expressed the bliss in her heart. She tiptoed and kissed him back. "Happy Valentine's Day."

Jun smiled in satisfaction with her wish and more so with the kiss.

"Now, let's go."

Coming back to the hotel, Jun headed to the third floor again where Yunru was while Ai walked up to her table where Xing Bi was waiting for her. But the difference being that she wasn't actually there. Then Ai noticed the tension in the atmosphere. There was chaos and people were furiously talking to themselves.

"What is happening with the results?"

"It's so long already! It wasn't supposed to be such a long break."

Ai blinked.

The results aren't out yet?

The emcee was trying to calm things down, but the more people waited, the more restless they became.

Just as the lid of everybody's patience was about to break, two men were thrown out in the open. They were beaten into a pulp with their faces hardly recognizable.

The emcee and all the others were horrified. Several shocked gasps were heard.

W-what is happening?

Ai was clueless just like everybody else but when she saw Xing Bi coming out, she widened her eyes.

"Xing Bi!"

But another shock awaited as she noticed another man accompanying Xing Bi, his expression marred with killing intent.

Ai paused.

Liu Nian...?

Beside him, Ai didn't understand what sort of expression Xing Bi held at that moment.

The emcee gathered himself and stammered. "W-what is going on? Who are they?"

The smile on his lips brought a tremble in everyone.

"Your so-called judges who were supposed to judge tonight's Summit."

The emcee stumbled backwards.

Judges!? They are the judges!?

He bent down to look. He never would have guessed that the men were two of the three judges for tonight. Their condition was miserable. They were not even recognizable.

Everybody looked at Nian as some devil's incarnate.

But his brother, Jun on the third floor, had his jaw dropped.

"What the fuck is he doing here!?"

Just now, he was in a good mood after his and Ai's confession when his gaze fell on Nian, and his good mood disappeared instantly.

Annoyed, he asked Yunru, "Did you know he was coming?"

Yunru himself was at a loss. He wanted to ask Jun what happened outside when he saw Nian too.

He shook his head. "I don't understand why Bro Nian would be here either."
