Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu-Chapter 1142: Zhan Yahui (1)

Jin felt like he was in heaven. At this moment, he gulped down his throat as Alix mounted on top of him.

Oh God if this is a dream, let it never end...

His eyes traced along her beautiful curves that looked more tantalizing as she leaned on him from an angle that sped up his already erratic heartbeats.

"I fail to understand how this is a punishment..." he muttered with a hoarse voice.

She pinched his chin and tilted her head, tracing her thumb against his jawline. "Right now, I’m enacting what is a very popular scene in romance novels. The male character lifting the female character’s chin up? I’m beginning to see its charm."

"Really?"

"I used to think it was stupid, but your handsome face making all sorts of expressions as I’m..." she brushed her thumb against his lips, "doing such things to you is quite amusing to watch."

"What more things...do you want to do to me?"

Alix released her pressed finger and pressed her lips instead, smoothly gliding along his that sent a million flutters across his heart. He kissed her back and he found his way to the pins in her hair which he let those silky locks dangle around his cheeks. A veil of darkness greeted his gaze and he played with her hair locks as their kiss deepened second by second.

Then he felt a sneaky hand trying to undress and when he tried to return the sentiments by wanting to undress her, she mumbled a ’na-ah’ signal with a twinkling glint in her eyes. A small ripple of impatience knocked in him by her torturous restrictions.

"I can sense some impatience. Seems like the punishment is working," she arched her brow, slipping out of her bridal dress bit by bit.

It was like a slow motion movie where Jin refused to blink even for a second, burning the imagery in his mind. He didn’t miss a single moment of her uncovering herself that revealed her beautiful body beneath the red clothing. First came the view of her clavicle, then her shoulders which went down deeper and deeper to reveal the tempting slit of her chest. Once the breasts came into his view, his sanity was barely hanging by a thread.

"You are beautiful..."

Alix blinked and for a moment didn’t believe that his eyelashes looked wet.

"Why are you crying?"

"I don’t know," he quickly wiped his eyes, "I know we have done this before but tonight is extra, extra, extra special. I cannot get enough of your beauty no matter how many times I see you..."

Alix stared at him.

"What?" Jin felt a sudden wave of nervousness wash over him. "D-Did I say something wrong?"

"Not wrong. You only know how to say the right things to a woman."

Hunger towards sex or physical body was what Alix found to be always distasteful. It was synonymous to a mad rush of needless emotions which had nowhere to go.

Respect sat at the very top and Jin showed her every step of the way without fail. His eyes were glistening out of pure appreciation towards who Alix was, rather than being clouded with a sense of possession.

"Which is what makes me love you so much."

His eyes widened, stunned. For several long moments, he was unable to process the words that fell on his ears. The tears that he had just wiped away pooled again in his eyes.

"Did you just say that you love me?"

"Yes."

"Really?"

"Why would I say that if it wasn’t real?"

"You...you love me?" He asked again, his heart a complete mess.

"Yes. I love you."

Jin pulled her in his hug, squeezing against his chest with all his might. "I love you too! I love you a lot!"

She heard the sound of his heartbeats drumming like crazy, lifting a smile on her lips.

"I know."

"B-But you don’t have to force yourself to say these things...I’m happy with your cheek kisses too!"

Alix said, "I know. But I’m learning. I want to learn to be able to say these things. It’s not fair for you to always rely on my sign language."

"Why do you want to make me cry so much tonight..."

Then he peeked down at her and pecked her forehead. "I...I also have something to say to you. It’s more of a question actually."

She half lifted her head and looked questioningly. "What is it?"

"Can I...sometimes..."

"Yes?"

"Call you...I mean I don’t want you to take this the wrong way."

"If it’s you, I won’t take anything the wrong way."

His heart melted into a puddle and a fresh dam of tears was about to fall.

"If you don’t mind...can I call you..." he swallowed a gulp, "by your name sometimes?"

"Don’t you always do that?"

"...By your real name."

Her eyes widened, visibly stunned. "Why would you want to remember a name that wrecked havoc in your life?"

Jin pressed his lips. "That’s the thing that I don’t want you to keep thinking about. Zhan Yahui is as much your identity as Ren Alix is. I know that Alix is your second chance at life but your heart is still Yahui’s. That’s why...I don’t want to disregard who you truly are or let you think less of who you were. Zhan Yahui was smart, tough, sassy and badass. Still is and always will be. That’s the woman I fell in love with."

Alix couldn’t do much than simply peer into his sincere black eyes. Being an editor, she was an expert with words, yet she failed to form a coherent sentence tonight. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"I know you might be used to remembering only the bad stuff. But I want you to remember the good times too."

She slightly arched her back and held his face in her palm.

"Everytime I think there couldn’t be anything else that would make me want to have a forever with you, you always prove me wrong."
