YUN: [Why did you suddenly want to go to Tropical Land?]

Shen Ji Yun replied back instead of answering Su Yuqi’s question. Not long after, he received a reply back.

Morganite: [Well, Bai Ze heard rumors that you and Luo Yan were on a date at Tropical Land and Luo Jin kind of went nuts, saying he wanted to go there. Bai Ze agreed on taking him and I decided to tag along.]

Black lines appeared on Shen Ji Yun’s face. He didn’t know who he should be annoyed at. Bai Ze who just couldn’t keep his mouth shut or Luo Jin for being such a pain in the ass as always.

He hadn’t replied back yet when Su Yuqi sent another message.

Morganite: [Are you really on a date with Luo Yan? If you are, I could make sure that we won’t run into you two once we entered Tropical Land.]

Shen Ji Yun was a bit surprised when he read that. Because based on that, it could be seen that Su Yuqi was already suspecting his relationship with Luo Yan. Wait- what’s with the ’suspecting’ part? He and Luo Yan weren’t even in that kind of relationship. Well, at least not yet. For now, it’s all just his wishful thinking.

But Su Yuqi asking this question was almost tantamount to her telling him that she already knew about his feelings for Luo Yan. And the fact that she hadn’t said anything until now meant that she had no plans on interfering with his affairs. Which, for Su Yuqi, was equivalent to her giving him her silent support.

He suddenly didn’t know how to react to that discovery. So, he just chose to reply back and honestly said;

YUN: [We’re on a date. But only I know that we are, Yan Yan has no idea. He thinks we’re just here to do a hidden task.]

There was a bit of silence on the other side. After a while, Su Yuqi finally replied.

Morganite: [So, you’re on a one-sided ’date’?]

YUN: [Yes.] – Shen Ji Yun replied with a straight face.

There was a bit of silence again on the other side. Shen Ji Yun wasn’t sure but he felt like Su Yuqi was laughing at him right now.

He hadn’t known Su Yuqi as long as Bai Ze. Both of them were the type who didn’t like to talk nonsense and much prefer actions than words. If not for Bai Ze being such a big emulsifying agent, there was probably no way that he and Su Yuqi would ever be friends. They might not know each other’s deepest secrets but they were sure that in times of trouble, they would have each other’s back.

And Su Yuqi’s next reply fully demonstrated that.

Morganite: [Send me your location. I’ll try my best to pull Luo Jin and Bai Ze on the opposite direction so we won’t run into you and you could peacefully have your one-sided date with Luo Yan.]

Shen Ji Yun didn’t hesitate to reply back. Even though he felt that Su Yuqi was teasing him with that mention of ’one-sided date’.

YUN: [We’re at Dream Land, the very center area of amusement park.]

Morganite: [Got it. Once you change your location, send it to me immediately. So, I could act accordingly.]

YUN: [Okay. Thank you, Yuqi.]

Morganite: [What thanks? It’s better to give me something of equal value to my efforts. And take note, my efforts would definitely be tremendous.]

Shen Ji Yun shook his head. What having each other’s back? He should have known she wanted something in return.

YUN: [Fine. Tell me what you want later.] contemporary romance

Their conversation ended and Shen Ji Yun finally started to move towards the dining cart.

Although Su Yuqi wanted something in return for preventing Luo Jin and Bai Ze from meeting him and Luo Yan, at least now, he didn’t have to worry that they would suddenly appear out of nowhere while the two of them were interviewing some NPC or something. Then he wouldn’t have to see that gnome going berserk and attacking him for taking his brother here.

As much as possible, he didn’t want to get into a fight with Luo Jin. After all, the other was still the younger brother of Luo Yan. Although it almost felt impossible, he still had to do his best so Luo Jin would have a good opinion of him. But that would be a pretty long and arduous battle.

Because for some reason, before Shen Ji Yun had even realized his feelings for Luo Yan, Luo Jin had long been antagonistic towards him. As if he already foresaw that he would fall for his brother. That was probably what people call ’animal instinct’.

If that gnome saw him with Luo Yan right now, he would definitely attack him first before asking anything. But with Su Yuqi around, he no longer had to worry about that possibility. Not only that, with her savviness, she could definitely control Bai Ze’s movement.

So, now, Shen Ji Yun could finally let out a sigh of relief.

A few seconds later, he finally arrived at the dining cart area. There were other players there who immediately looked at his direction when he arrived. He ignored all of them. But then he thought of another problem.

The reason why Bai Ze found out that he and Luo Yan were in Tropical Land right now was because of the players who saw them roaming around here. They probably took screenshots of them and once they logged out, they posted it on the game forum. Then other players would definitely see those posts and once they logged in the game, they would tell about it to other players. That’s probably how Bai Ze heard about it.

If other players continued to talk about his and Luo Yan’s reaction, it would sooner or later reach Luo Jin’s ears. And then he might find out that Su Yuqi was simply taking them to the wrong direction.

Maybe he and Luo Yan should disguise themselves. No, his rabbit could simply pull over his hood and that half mask of his that could cover the lower half of his face. So, the problem was with Shen Ji Yun. Because his pair of horns was simply too eye-catching. And it was also hard to hide.

He sighed and once again contemplated on why the heck was he a Qilin.
