Chapter 246 It Will Be Fun
Warlord. A username which made people think that it was a guy on the other side of the screen. But the truth was way different. The name and the mannerism belonged to a man, but the gender was that of a woman's. It had its own history behind its creation which both Guiyings knew.
'Guiying' opened the personal chat between Warlord and HS - which was Shui's username on Reading Point. 'She' went through the chat history and found the part where HS wrote that MrPerfect and her were good friends.
"I don't really think so,' she laughed. "Who are you trying to fool? I am pretty sure you must you were more than just a friend to him, right? I remember it was MrPerfect who brought you on this forum. Plus your conversation tone reeks that you are a woman. I want to believe that you could be a man, but I don't think a man like MrPerfect would waste his time on one."
'Guiying's' eyes seemed calculating as she thought of something, staring at the chat. She then typed on her keyboard and hit the Send button.

Han villa.
Ever since the meeting between Shui and Jin yesterday, she had hardly stepped out of her room. Apart from eating meals that was too light for it to be even counted, Shui hadn't met anybody much.
'I hate you, Han Shui.'
As soon as she had returned from the restaurant, she had locked herself in the room and buried her face into the blanket, crying hard. She spent a sleepless night where she could think of nothing else but Jin's eyes filled with hatred and his words that only struck her heart with poison. The sudden change in Jin's behavior was unfathomable.
Jin…He was always so gentle and smiling. He always looked at me so affectionately. We always laughed together. Then w-why does he hate me?
So why this sudden hate for her would erupt in his heart?
The tears that left her eyes refused to stop. By now, her irises were swollen and reddish. She thought to call Jin countless times, and she tried too.
But Jin never picked her calls. Instead, she received his cold reply, 'Don't call or message me again.'
That crushed her heart akin to a glass shattering into pieces. She silently wailed, her heart filled with pain and grievance. She liked him, but Jin hated her. She would have understood if he might not return her feelings.
But hate…?
That one word brought nothing but immense agony.
Her then phone lit up with a message, and widening her eyes, Shui jumped up in expectation.
Jin!
She hastily unlocked her phone, but that smile soon faded from her lips when she noticed a message on Reading Point.
It wasn't a message from Jin but from Warlord.
Her shoulders visibly drooped, feeling let down. She wasn't in the mood to talk to anybody on chat, but Warlord seemed persistent.
[Warlord - Hey, hey! Are you ignoring me!?]
Releasing a soft sigh, Shui replied.
[HS - Hey…Um, if it's okay, can we talk later?]
[Warlord - No, wait! What happened by the way? You don't seem to be in a good mood. Did you fight…perhaps with your friend MrPerfect?]
Shui stiffened upon remembering the meeting with Jin yesterday.
I don't know what to call it…
[HS - It's nothing. I didn't fight with him. It's just I am a little busy these days, so I am tired.]
[Warlord - Haha, of course I knew it! You cannot fight with my best buddy! But that man is so busy! We are bros! How dare he ignore me!?]
She faintly smiled.
[Warlord - Anywayyy. I wanted to ask if you would be free in the upcoming days~]
Shui thought about it.
[HS - I guess so…Why are you asking?]
[Warlord - That's cool! You heard about the fest that will begin in Shanghai? I wanted you to invite to come over! I am gonna be there too! The members of our group are planning visit. It will be so much fun! And you know what? My idol, CherryBlossom gonna be there too woohooo!]
[HS - Oh. It's nice, but I don't think I can make it.]
[Warlord - Don't be like thisssss. It's a fest! It's gonna be tons of fun. What about MrPerfect? I am sure he gonna be there too? It's a heaven for us! He was there at my idol's book signing event too!]
Shui wondered about it. As far as she knew, Ai was a writer who won the Author Summit, and there was a good chance she would be a part of the fest. And if his girlfriend would be there, she was sure that Jun would be there as well.
[HS - I guess so.]
[Warlord - Then you come with him as well~ I will finally get to meet a pretty woman too, hehe…]
Shui rolled her eyes.
[Warlord - Please, please? Everybody is comingggg!]
Shui's gaze dimmed. After what happened with Jin, she was in no mood to enjoy and have fun. But she also thought about Jun who would be there.
It will be a good time to talk to him…
Shui sincerely wanted to apologize to him and even if she could easily meet him at his condo or at Sky, she hesitated. She felt it silly to meet him all the way in Shanghai when they lived in the same city. But she thought that the fest atmosphere might make it easier to break the silence between them.
[HS - Fine. I will be there.]
[Warlord - Woohoo! Awesome! Will see you in Shanghai then.]
[HS - Yeah.]
Shui slept back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. A tear trickled out of her eye, thinking about Jin once again.

'Guiying' stared at Shui's message. She then dropped a message to Cai Lingyun.
'Be at Shanghai fest, big bro.'
She threw her phone on the desk and smiled in satisfaction.
"Shanghai will be fun."
