BXBX NOVEL Chapter 408 little admonishment
He put down his duffel bad on one of the couches. "Can I get you anything?"
"No, thanks," Luo Yan said, looking around the suite.
It was much smaller compared to their family’s suite. Probably because this one was just for two people. But there was still a floor to ceiling window where one could see the view of Tianfu Square.
He turned to Shen Ji Yun. Even without the long dark purple hair and amethyst beast eyes, he was still extraordinarily handsome. Of course, he was happy to see him in reality. But there was more pressing issue that he needed to address.
He looked at him and tried to be as serious as he could. "Brother Ji Yun, I want to ask you a question and I hope that you would be honest with me."
"Of course," Shen Ji Yun said without hesitation. Although he wondered what kind of question could it be that warrant such a serious expression.
"Did Brother Ji Yun decided to go here in Chengdu because I told you that my family and I are going here?" Luo Yan asked, going straight to the point. "If that was not the case, then I’ll apologize for being too presumptuous."
This was the reason why he went here to this suite. To ask him this question. He didn’t think that he was lying about his uncle. Shen Yi Mu would probably indeed arrive here later. But that didn’t mean that his assumption that Shen Ji Yun went here purposely because he knew he would be here was wrong.
He was sure it’s not just because he was being too narcissistic. Knowing how muddle-headed this guy could be when it came to him, that assumption was certainly possible. If that was the case, then they really had to have a serious talk.
Shen Ji Yun was shocked when he heard that question. For a moment, he didn’t know how he should answer. Should he lie? Or should he just tell the truth? But if he told the truth, wouldn’t Luo Yan hate him? No, there’s a possibility that he wouldn’t. But it’s also possible that he would think of him as a creep. Either way, Shen Ji Yun wasn’t sure that he could take the aftermath.
He was preparing to say some acceptable excuse when his gaze met Luo Yan’s. Looking at those big peach blossom eyes, he suddenly realized one thing. If he lied and didn’t tell the truth, whatever relationship they had right now would most likely have a crack. A hole that wouldn’t be fixed no matter how much he tried to in the future.
And so, he decided to tell the truth.
"Yes," he answered, looking down, afraid to see his reaction.
See? He was indeed correct – Luo Yan thought. "Brother Ji Yun, that’s not a good behavior. If it wasn’t me but another person, they might have already thought that you’re stalking them," he admonished, using the sternest voice he could possibly muster.
Shen Ji Yun’s mood became even lower when he heard that. He could already foresee the worst-case scenario. It’s like his heart was being slashed by dozens of knives all at the same time. It would probably be better if the floor he was standing on would open and swallow him right now. Maybe that way, he wouldn’t feel like shit.
[It’s over. Yan Yan would hate me now.]
Luo Yan stared at Shen Ji Yun who was now like an abandoned puppy. If he had ears and tail, they would probably be down right now. Showing his low mood. Luo Yan suddenly had an illusion like he abused him or something.
It was not like he was angry. Because he knew Shen Ji Yun had no malicious intent in doing what he did. He knew him enough to know that he probably only did it because he wanted to see him in real life. He even found it a bit sweet. But that didn’t mean that he would tolerate this sort of behavior.
If he did, then it would be a habit. Maybe in the future, Shen Ji Yun might think that there’s nothing wrong in following him around without his knowledge. That it was an acceptable behavior. Of course, he wasn’t. He didn’t want the other to develop this kind of stalkerish behavior.
So, Luo Yan would just have to take this chance straighten him up.
"I’m sorry, Yan Yan. I just want to see you," Shen Ji Yun said, his voice full on undisguised sincerity. It really took a lot from just to not stutter, even though he was already panicking inside.
"I know, Brother Ji Yun. Don’t worry, I’m not mad at you."
Shen Ji Yun quickly raised his head. He wasn’t sure if he even heard him correctly or if it was just his wishful thinking. "You’re not? Angry, I mean."
Luo Yan shook his head. "No. I just want Brother Ji Yun to understand that I won’t stand for this kind of behavior. It’s fine if you go to my house and give me a surprised visit. But following me secretly to a place and acting like it’s just coincidence that we met was already borderline stalkerish. And I don’t like it. I hope Brother Ji Yun will respect that."
Hearing it directly from Luo Yan, Shen Ji Yun felt like he was a scum. He became depressed again. He almost resisted the urge to kneel in front of his rabbit and ask for his forgiveness. This time, it was really his fault. He shouldn’t have been so impulsive.
"I know. I won’t do it again. I promise," he swore. "I’m sorry, Yan Yan."
"It’s fine as long as Brother Ji Yun understand," Luo Yan said. He could see from Shen Ji Yun’s blue eyes that he truly wouldn’t do something like this again. "Next time, Brother Ji Yun could simply ask me. It’s not like I will say ’no’. After all, I also want to spend time with Brother Ji Yun, not just in the game, but also in reality."
Shen Ji Yun suddenly felt like his heart just revived because of what Luo Yan said. The cold winter wind in his heart suddenly turned into a warm summer breeze.
Before he could express his joy, the door of the suite was suddenly knocked. And it was not just a simple knock. Whoever it was outside, they were knocking like there was no tomorrow.
"Shen Ji Yun! Let our brother out right now!"
Shen Ji Yun didn’t need to open the door to know who it was. Just by that voice, shouting as if he had kidnapped his brother, it would be no one else but Luo Jin.
