LUO YAN appeared at the plaza of Goldcrest City, Luo Jin appearing just a few seconds after. He glanced down at his younger brother, there was an obvious frown on his face. Luo Yan helplessly smiled. Because he knew it was because they were to meet with Shen Ji Yun here.

It had been a month since they joined Yunyue and yet Luo Jin was still ever so vigilant against Shen Ji Yun. Luo Yan no longer tried to convince him not to behave like that. Because he knew it wouldn’t have any effect whatsoever. He’d just let time prove him otherwise.

The morning sun was shining brightly on the city. Today was Saturday. That’s why the two of them were able to be here this early. This weekend also signaled the end of his first week at school.

Luo Yan’s first week was almost uneventful. Everyone in his class was nice to him. Overly nice, in fact. It’s like every time some of his classmates looked at him, he had a feeling that they were just restraining themselves from attacking him. And by ’attacking’ he meant pinching his cheeks or hugging him. If he as so showed any indication that he would be alright with it, those classmates of his probably wouldn’t hesitate any longer and just flung themselves at him.

The only one who had been openly antagonistic towards him was Huang Wen. But even he stopped with the snide remarks after Luo Yan consecutively answered some of the teachers’ questions correctly. With that, Huang Wen could no longer use the excuse that Luo Yan only managed to get into the school because of his family’s money.

He glanced around and noticed that some players were staring in their direction. He had already pulled the rib of his shirt to cover the lower half of his face. This way, he wouldn’t gather too much attention. He’s going to do some serious business today. He didn’t want to be ogled while he’s doing that. But even so, it seemed like his white hair was still quite the attraction. Not to mention, Luo Jin’s special gnome class.

"When is that guy coming here?" Luo Jin said impatiently. His tone was like he’d been waiting for hours. When in fact, they had only been here for about a minute.

Luo Yan was about to answer him when he felt someone suddenly stood beside him. He looked up and saw a tall male player wearing all black with the lower half of his face also covered but the one thing most people would notice about him first were his pair of piercing blue eyes.

"Brother Ji Yun," he smiled and greeted the person who just stood beside him.

He wasn’t surprised to see him arriving in his alt account’s game avatar. After all, they would be walking around the city. If he came here in his real avatar, other players would surely flock them.

"Sorry, I’m late. Did you wait too long?" Shen Ji Yun apologized.

"Yes, we’ve been waiting for hours," Luo Jin said in a way as if they were really waiting there for hours.

"No, we’ve only been here for like a minute," Luo Yan immediately corrected.

Shen Ji Yun didn’t mind what the gnome said because he’d already been used to ignoring him. What he said usually just enter one ear and exit on the other.

"Is it really alright for Brother Ji Yun to accompany us today? You don’t have any lecture you need to attend?" Luo Yan continued. It’s actually one of the reasons he was hesitating to let Shen Ji Yun accompany them today. After all, the guy was already a university student. He should be busier than them.

"It’s okay. I don’t have any lectures today anyway." When Shen Ji Yun entered college, he decided not to take any lectures during the weekends. He wanted it to be a rest time for him. Usually, during this time, he would still be sleeping on his bed. But, surprisingly enough, he didn’t mind breaking his ’rest time’ to spend it with his favorite rabbit. "There are currently three empty plot of lands here in Goldcrest but only one is on a prime location. Do you want to visit all three or just go straight to the one located on the prime location?"

Luo Jin snorted. "Is that something you still need to ask? Unless you want to waste our time, then please, by all means, let’s visit each of the three locations," he said sarcastically.

"Brother Ji Yun, let’s just go to the one on a prime location," Luo Yan said. He actually didn’t need to see the other two. If Shen Ji Yun considered one to be on a prime location, then he had no doubt that it definitely was. "And sorry if Ah Jin is being rude."

He glanced at his brother and told him silently with his eyes that he shouldn’t make trouble. Luo Jin only huffed and puffed like some bear child.

"I don’t mind. I’m used to your brother’s childishness," Shen Ji Yun said with no ups and downs in his voice.

Luo Jin sharply turned to Shen Ji Yun and glared at him. "Who are you calling childish?"

Shen Ji Yun glanced at Luo Jin. "The one asking right now if he is one."

Luo Jin’s small face turned red in anger. "You—"

When Luo Jin was about to pounce on Shen Ji Yun, Luo Yan quickly caught him. "Now, now, calm down, Ah Jin." contemporary romance

Shen Ji Yun only looked at Luo Jin with those cold emotionless eyes, almost as if telling him that the way he’s acting right now was the proof that he’s being childish. Luo Jin probably sensed that, so he immediately calmed down and only glared at Shen Ji Yun before pulling away from Luo Yan.

Seeing this, Luo Yan could only chuckle. Whenever the two had an argument, it had always been Shen Ji Yun who came up as the winner. Either by simply ignoring Luo Jin or by staring him down with those cold eyes. Just like what he did just now.

Luo Yan leaned a bit close to Shen Ji Yun’s side. "Brother Ji Yun is really powerful," he whispered so his brother wouldn’t hear.

Shen Ji Yun glanced at Luo Yan who already moved back. He couldn’t see his full face because of the fabric covering the lower half of his face. But seeing how his eyes were bent into crescents, he knew that he must be smiling right now. Suddenly, he had an urge to pull down the mask on Luo Yan’s face just so he could see that sweet smile of his. He clenched both his fists before he could do just that.

He cleared his throat, trying to hide his embarrassment. But if one looked closely, they would see that the tips of his ears were both shockingly red. "Shall we go?"
