84: Invade the wedding anniversary banquet!

Invade the wedding anniversary banquet!

The same evening Jun lied down on his bed and enjoyed the ongoing war against Missimperfectlyfine. He sipped onto his wine, his dark eyes blazing with satisfaction but fury too. He would make it sure that Missimperfectlyfine's career would be over for good.0

Snatching Ai's hard work…I won't let this slide at any cost!

He sighed and leaned back on his pillow. Taking out the gift box from the bedside drawer, he kept it on his lap and stared at it. 

Tomorrow was Jinhai and Nana's wedding anniversary, which he wasn't allowed to attend.

Mom would be sad, right? But Dad will be there to manage it.

It pained him not to be a part of the celebration. But it was something he brought upon himself. 

Till date, he wondered why he confessed the truth about his rebirth and past life to Jinhai. If he hadn't, he would have been at home right now with his family. There would have been no wall to separate him from them. Everybody would have been in the dark about his sins. Life would have been perfect if he hadn't admitted the truth about his rebirth.

Jun took out a card and wrote Liu villa's address in it. He stuck it on the top of the gift box and kept it aside.

He couldn't go himself to give his parents his wishes, but he could at least send his gift to them. He realized Jinhai wouldn't be so thrilled. But Nana would be.

Even if a little bit, he thought his gift could diminish the guilt from him and the sadness from his mother's heart for her son not being there.

Jun glanced at the gift and smiled.

"I am sorry, Mom. But I hope this will make you happy."

"Ai, did you get to talk to Jun?" Her editor and friend Xing Bi asked in concern.

Ai let out a soft sigh. "No."

"Why not?" She gasped. "We can't afford to waste time, Ai."

She glanced at herself in the mirror and recalled how Jun looked absent-minded ever since he was told not to attend his parents' anniversary. "I couldn't say it. I wanted to. But I noticed Jun is going through some personal problems."

"Personal?"

"Yes. It's related to his family. It seems they are not on good terms. It's been bothering him for a few days. Even during meals, he is very lost and quiet…" Ai felt her chest ache whenever she noticed his dull gaze filled with longing and grief. "I didn't want to add my problems to it. Plus, Jun doesn't actually work in Sky. I don't want to make things difficult for him."

Xing Bi sighed from the other side. "I see."

"I am sorry," she lowered her head.

"No. We are in a dire situation, but I don't want to be insensitive towards Jun's problems either. Let's see…Let me think about this. I will find a way. Don't worry about this."

They hung up, and Ai lied back on the bed. 

What can I do to solve this? I brought this problem and unnecessarily troubling everyone. I cannot let Xing Bi do all the work.

Neither do I want Yating's help.

She only knew Jun, who was connected to Sky, but she didn't want to trouble him any further.

First, he helped her with a place to stay and then helped with revising her story too. Jun had already helped her more than she could have asked for. Now, she wanted to take the responsibility.

Sky…

The only one in higher authority was President Chen Yunru. But there was no way he would give her any appointment after the huge misunderstanding.

If I could somehow reach him…

Which was the same idea that Xing Bi was struck with the very next morning as she munched on her toast and eggs and watched the news.

Liu Jinhai and Liu Nana's wedding anniversary celebration was making the headlines in all news channels. It was their twenty-sixth wedding anniversary, after all.

A significant event in their lives. Twenty-six years of marriage and togetherness. It was the biggest highlight everywhere. Liu family being a prestigious family only added to the excitement and frenzy.

But Xing Bi's mind was thinking in another direction.

Liu family…Liu family…

Xing Bi pressed the space in between her brows. Then it dawned upon her.

Yes! The Chen and Liu family are connected! Liu Jinhai and Chen Jianyu are cousins. Which means the Chen family and most importantly his son, Chen Yunru will definitely be in this party too!

Her eyes slowly widened and sparkled as the idea struck her.

This is a great chance to meet President Chen Yunru and clarify everything! Once his doubts about the plagiarism are cleared, the problem would be solved. Sky would take the statement down about Ai.

She recalled Yating did talk to him once, but it bore no fruit.

"I am briliant!" Xing Bi proudly praised herself. "Such an awesome chance has presented upon me! I will make him talk to me at any cost!"

She grabbed her phone and furiously dialed Ai's number in anticipation. She couldn't wait to share her awesome plan with her.

But Ai's number didn't connect. Xing Bi frowned and sighed. 

Is her battery dead?

Suddenly, Xing Bi cut the call as a significant point flashed in her mind like an alarm bell.

"There is one problem…How will I get in the party? Only guests with invitations can go. Shit."

It was a major roadblock, but she wasn't ready to give up. Her eyes still shone with determination.

"No matter what, I will make it in anyhow! For Ai's sake, I will do anything."

Yating held his phone to his ear as he heard Butler Mo's report.

"Young master. I dug in about Sky Publishing. Unfortunately, I couldn't come up with the CEO's name. But there is an important piece of information which could tell you who it might be."

"Like?"

"President Chen Yunru and the CEO of Sky Publishing are related. The CEO is most probably one of his cousins."

Yating's eyes narrowed. "So somebody from the Liu family?"
