The Return of the God Level Assassin

THE students passing by who saw this sudden smile from Shen Ji Yun almost stopped on their tracks to do a double take. Just to make sure that they were really seeing right and not just hallucinating.

These students were mostly from the same department. So, they knew who Shen Ji Yun was. Since his freshman year, he had been making quite a name for himself. Not only because he’s smart and handsome, but mostly because of how he treated the people around him. He treated them like they didn’t exist.

At first, all kinds of people were approaching him. Those who wanted to be friends, those who had bad intentions, and those who wished to be his girlfriend. But they were all rejected. And he did it in the most brutal way possible – by not even acknowledging their existence.

When they tried to talk to him, he would just pass by them like they were nothing but air. Sometimes, they couldn’t even get a word out and he was already walking far ahead. That caused a lot of dissatisfaction to people. They thought he was too arrogant. Just because he was a little bit more blessed than others didn’t mean that he could just look down at them.

So, some people tried to make trouble with him. But they were the ones who ended up suffering. Some were reported to the university, some were even beaten up and sent to the hospital. After that, no one would try to get close to him again.

Shen Ji Yun started to be known in the department as the ’unsmiling prince’ and the ’unfeeling demon’. The former for those who were in awe of him and the latter for those who feared him.

But what they didn’t know was that this guy simply had a poor social skills. He didn’t know how to properly deal with people. So, he just chose to remain silent and not deal with them at all.

That’s why seeing him smile, even if it’s just a small arching of the lips, was almost like a miracle to them. Just who could make this big ice-block smile like that?

Of course, it’s Shen Ji Yun’s one and only rabbit.

He looked at the time on his phone. It’s almost six in the evening. It’s not yet time for dinner. It’s probably okay to call Luo Yan right now. He was about to go and look for a place where he could video call his rabbit comfortably without prying eyes when someone suddenly put their arm on his shoulders.

He almost reflexively elbowed the person. But he stopped in time. Because he knew that there was only one person who had the guts to do this.

He glanced sideways at the guy beside him. "Bai Ze," he said in a voice with a bit of annoyance and reproach.

Bai Ze smartly removed his arm on the other’s shoulder. "Hey, don’t give me that cold glare. I was just wondering what made you smile so happily. Look, the students of the same department are looking at you as if they’re seeing an alien."

Those who heard what Bai Ze said quickly looked away and continued walking.

"That’s exaggeration. I’m a human. Of course, I know how to smile."

Bai Ze only looked at Shen Ji Yun as if the other said the most cringy joke ever. "Okay, let’s not talk about that. So, who sent you a message that made you so happy? Is it Xiao Yan?"

This time, it was Shen Ji Yun’s turn to look at the other as if saying ’who else could it be?’. "I need to call Yan Yan. Let’s talk again later." contemporary romance

Before Bai Ze could respond, Shen Ji Yun had already run at a fast speed. He stared at the quickly disappearing back of his friend and could only shook his head. Could love really change people this much?

He remembered his beautiful younger cousin. Well, if it’s Luo Yan, it’s really no wonder that he could such an influence on Shen Ji Yun. [That’s just Xiao Yan’s charm, I guess?]

He looked at orange colored sky. Should he also try falling in love? Must be a nice feeling indeed.

Luo Yan was doing his homework when his phone rang. It’s a request for a video call. When he saw the caller id, he quickly answered. Shen Ji Yun’s handsome face appeared on the screen.

"Brother Ji Yun, did you read my message?" he asked first.

"Yes. I’m very happy that Yan Yan liked the daifuku I made," Shen Ji Yun responded. "I was actually a bit worried that it wouldn’t be to your taste."

Luo Yan only managed to understand one thing from that. "Brother Ji Yun made the daifuku yourself?" he asked, still a bit unbelieving.

Shen Ji Yun scratched his cheek, as if embarrassed. "Yes. Cooking is my hobby, you see. When I saw you enjoying the daifuku so much, I thought why not make one for you? That’s why I’m very happy that you liked it. At least, my hard work paid off."

Luo Yan was speechless for a bit. He honestly couldn’t remember if Shen Ji Yun had already mentioned to him before in passing that he knew how to cook. But that didn’t matter now. Because those delicious daifukus just proved that he really does know how.

It’s not just that. He made those daifukus taste the same as the ones they had in-game. That level of thoughtfulness was simply outside of the normal range. It showed just how much Shen Ji Yun liked him.

But wasn’t this too foul? A handsome, smart, kind, gentle, and thoughtful guy who also knew how to cook? It’s the perfect partner anyone could wish for. And this guy just happened to have fallen in love with him. He must really be showered with luck in this life.

"Brother Ji Yun, how could you be so perfect? Are you sure you’re still human? You must be a demigod sent to earth to grace us, lowly beings, with your presence," he said exaggeratedly.

Shen Ji Yun turned red as a tomato the moment he heard such words. "Yan Yan," he scolded, but his tone was not reproachful at all. But instead, it was filled with shyness.

Luo Yan grinned. Ah, he really loved this guy.
