Chapter 490 The Second Betrayal

It was as if all the bubbling anger in Zixin's chest drowned into nothingness. If it meant that Guiying, too, always loved him then there was nothing else he wanted in this world.

Unknowingly, tears welled up in his eyes. If only the mistake in identity hadn't happened, then she wouldn't have suffered so much.

"If only I hadn't gone through that accident then…Guiying wouldn't have been hurt so much," he painfully whispered to himself. "Why was fate so cruel?"

"Fate wasn't cruel, Bro. Somebody else was," Jun said.

He tightly knitted his brows and looked up. "Somebody else?"

Chyou narrowed her eyes. "Mao Yong wasn't the culprit you had said."

Yating asked, "Who is he?"

Chyou explained how Mao Yong was caught and confessed that he planned the accident against Zixin. But it was a lie. Somebody had kidnapped his sister, Mao Jingyi and forced him to take the blame.

She glanced back at Jun and asked, "How did you know about Zixin and Chyou anyway? It seems like you already did before I could tell you."

Jun cleared his throat and said, "We got to know about Guiying's misunderstanding that she thought that I betrayed her. Right, Ai?"

He couldn't exactly reveal Jin's vision. He peeked at Ai, who had concern and worry marred on her face. "Ai?"

She slightly jumped and asked, "Y-yes? Yes, we learned about the misunderstanding…"

Jun could clearly tell what she might be thinking. It was evident to Yating too that the matter related to Guiying had shaken her up a lot.

He had questions in his mind that despite Ai and Guiying being such good friends, why didn't Guiying ever tell Ai about her love for MrPerfect? Why did the two friends seem to be distant?

Jun decided to have a good conversation with Ai later. For now, he looked back at Chyou and Zixin. "At first, I really couldn't understand the claim. I never knew Cai Guiying personally, yet she always acted hostile to me. She was also using her other identity on Reading Point - Warlord, to target Shui and make problems for me through her. Then I came to know that she felt I betrayed her. But betrayed in what sense? Friendship? Work-related? No. Love seemed even more far-fetched…But it was what only made sense when I connected Bro's accident to it."

He rubbed his temples in frustration over himself. "And I felt like I was an idiot for not seeing this sooner."

Chyou frowned. "What do you mean?"

"Bro. Bro Zixin was the key. This whole time, I was under the impression that he had a completely different enemy altogether who planned his accident. That it had nothing to do with Cai Guiying. I didn't see the connection between him and her. But when I thought of betrayal, love, Reading Point…it all clicked to me. Yunru had laid out in front of me.

At the Summit, Ai and I confessed to each other and when we were about to leave, I told her that I was MrPerfect. That was the only chance for Cai Guiying to learn that I was MrPerfect. She might have heard us from a distance. After that, I never spoke about my identity as MrPerfect anywhere outside. From there on, she misunderstood me. The other important part is that Bro Zixin was there at the Summit."

He released a breath as he continued. "Bro Zixin was heading to Shanghai too to meet somebody. Wherever Cai Guiying was there, Bro was also present. But just when her misunderstanding would have been sorted in Shanghai by Bro Zixin's confession, he got into an accident. That was it. That's what Dad said too. Whoever the culprit was wanted him to get injured which was bad enough to make him forget something important."

Yating stared at him, his eyes slowly widening. "And that being Chen Zixin's identity as MrPerfect."

"Exactly. That's why the accident happened during Bro's way to the airport. They wanted to stop Bro from coming to Shanghai in the first place! But I was manipulated into thinking that the reason was something else."

In the past life, it was Feng Wuhan who took the blame and said he did it because Zixin had won a bid. Mao Yong agreed to it to take revenge for Zixin rejecting his sister.

With what Jun knew from his past life through Feng Wuhan, it was impossible to discern that the culprit was hiding the real intent of not letting him meet Guiying behind the accident. It was a reason which nobody could have guessed.

Once Jun heard about Guiying's betrayal claim from Jin and the fact that he thought he had seen Guiying coming out of Jun's room while sobbing at Shui's birthday banquet made all things fall into place for him.

She came to the party in last life on Shui's invitation but would have been shocked to learn that I was MrPerfect and Shui was my girlfriend. That MrPerfect was already dating someone. That was betrayal to her, Jun thought.

But that isn't the only thing…

Jun remembered how when Ai revealed her past life to him and her final confrontation with Guiying on the terrace that night, Guiying cried and blamed her for snatching the man she loved from her.

But that man wasn't Yating because if Guiying loved Yating, she would have already confessed to him in this life and tried to get together with him. But she didn't target Yating at all this time which meant she never loved him in the first place.

She dated Gu Yating in the past solely to take revenge from Ai and hurt her. And she wanted to hurt her because…

Jun's dark brown eyes reflected the truth he wanted to uncover. Jin had seen her coming crying out of Jun's room.

Because at the last life's party, Cai Guiying saw MissImperfectlyFine's books in my room's library, he concluded.

The MrPerfect who gave her sweet letters, gifts, claimed to be CherryBlossom's most loyal fan and hinted that he had feelings for her had MissImperfectlyFine's books in his library instead of hers.

The man Cai Guiying loved so much didn't hold even one book of CherryBlossom's in his very own room.

What would have she felt upon seeing that MrPerfect's library held no trace of CherryBlossom's existence at all?

For Cai Guiying, that was the second betrayal.
