Because I simply love you - Chapter 500

Back at Liu villa, Yukira jumped onto Yukito the moment he and Jing entered.

“Yo, bro! I saw your fashion show. Awesome as always,” he chuckled, “once again, tomorrow’s headlines are gonna rock.”

Yukito flicked on his head. “You saw it on the TV, right? How can you miss your brother’s show?”

Yukira coughed in embarrassment. “Hehe, ~~ I was busy in the auditions. Sorry, ~~~”

Just like Yukito entered the modeling industry, Yukira thought of joining the entertainment industry as an actor. In fact, they both were scouted together one day by a talent scout who offered that they would definitely shine in the glamor industry.

Yukira didn’t have any specific plans for his future, so he thought there was no harm in giving it a try. The result was that he flourished even more than his agency expected.

Yukito and Yukira both were today’s hottest idols in China, with the most fan following ever.

Yukira was currently given the lead role in doing a martial artist as his job where his training with Jinhai’s underworld men was coming in handy. But, due to the auditions, he couldn’t attend his brother’s fashion show.

Yukito almost strangled his head between his elbow. “I will mince you into meat if you failed to come next time. I always make it a point to watch the premiere of your movie. ALWAYS.”

“Ow! Ow! I promise! I will definitely come next time even if I have to sacrifice my role for it, my dear brother.”

Yukito rolled his eyes at his dramatic acting.

Yukira noticed Jing coming inside.

“Hey, Jing!”

Yukito slightly stiffened, and his expression dimmed somewhat.

Jing smiled. “Yo. How was the audition today?”

He grinned. “Piece of cake! Hey, did you two have dinner yet? I am starving!”

“And you came just at the right time!”

They saw Nana coming towards them.

“Nee-chan!”

The twins hugged her, and she pinched their cheeks. “I saw your show Yukito. You were cool as ever. I am sorry I couldn’t come personally. Jin was crying the whole time.”

“You don’t need to apologize, Nee-chan. Jin is a baby. He needs all the attention now.”

Nana felt touched.

“Awww. My brothers have grown so much.”

She giggled and looked at Yukira. “Congratulations on your role.”

Yukira grinned. “Thanks!”

Jing hesitated for a moment but then walked beside Yukito. But Yukito didn’t show any reaction.

“Sister-in-law~~ I am so hungry.”

Nana said, “Yes, yes, and dinner is just ready. Come on, you three.”

Even during the dinner, Yukito subtly avoided talking to Jing. He didn’t want Nana or Yukira to catch onto anything.

Jing didn’t show it on his face, but he was apprehensive. During their way back, too, he didn’t speak anything to him and was now also giving him the silent treatment.

After dinner, Yukito finally got the chance to get away from him. He knew Jing wanted to talk to him, but he didn’t, so he immediately excused himself to his room. As he came out after taking a shower, he saw Jing sitting on the bed.

Yukito coldly said, “I think I had locked the door.”

Jing anxiously said, “Yukito, please don’t be mad at me.”

“Jing, please. I don’t want to talk about this right now. Leave.”

Jing felt crushed. He didn’t want to leave before sorting out their fight. He blocked his way and refused to let him go.

“Yukito, I am sorry for hurting you. I didn’t mean it like that…I said some stupid things. I am an idiot! Please, please forgive me, no? I will do anything you say.”

He pinched his ears and said, “How about I become a duck for you?”

Yukito stared at him. He wanted to say something, but then he didn’t.

He really didn’t wish to talk to him right now, but he knew how Jing was. He wouldn’t leave until he got the surety that everything was fine between them again. He would cling to him until he got that peace of mind.

Yukito said, “Apologize to Fu Mina.”

Jing stiffened.

That fan!

He was furious at the prospect of asking forgiveness for her. But he didn’t want Yukito to be mad at him anymore, so he gulped his disagreement.

It took a lot of strength to smile against his wishes. “Of course. I will do that tomorrow first thing in the morning.”

Yukito had already read his mind like an open book. It was so clear that he was against it, and his apology won’t be sincere at all, but at this point, he just wanted to salvage the situation he had caused by insulting Fu Mina so much.

“Alright. You can leave now.”

“But you didn’t say that you forgave me yet…”

Yukito hesitated. He faintly smiled. “Alright. It’s okay now.”

Jing brightened and hopped to hug him. “Hehe, ~~ I knew you cannot be mad at me for long.”

Yukito said nothing.

“My Yukito is the best!”

Jing’s voice sounded happy and jolly, but behind their embrace where Yukito couldn’t see his face, his gaze still seemed sad, and the smile on his lips slowly disappeared.

He pulled Yukito back and looked at him with his goofy smile again.

“Hey, I got an idea! How about we go on a date tomorrow night? It’s been a long time since we had one. You have been so busy these days,” he whined.

“Um…”

The familiar fear made Jing’s chest tighten. He felt as if he couldn’t breathe.

“You cannot say no!”

An ominous foreboding shadowed his heart, but he shook it away. He knew that Yukito hadn’t still completely forgiven him, so he wanted this chance to spend some time with him and remove the hesitation from within him.

Not only that, he just felt it for a long time that their relationship wasn’t like before. They were going farther and farther away from each other.

Slowly, silently but surely.

The distance was growing only wider between them. And if this time, things remained as they were, he felt as if he would lose Yukito forever.

“Alright….” Yukito agreed.

Jing breathed a sigh of relief. “Cool. I will make all the arrangements. We will have the best date tomorrow!”
