The Return Of The God Level Assassin

"I—" Shen Ji Yun didn’t know how to explain his blunder just now.It was because he was so entranced by the rabbit’s face that he unknowingly said what he truly felt at the moment.Now, he only felt like an idiot.What if Luo Yan thought he was weird for saying that?After all, they only met yesterday.And now, he’s suddenly saying that he missed him.

But it was the truth.No matter how weird it seemed.He really did miss him.Was this the effect of falling in love?It made your brain circuit abnormal?He didn’t mind this abnormality.He’s just worried that Luo Yan would be weirded out by him.

If he could, he truly just wanted to say; ’I like you, can we be together?’.But, of course, he couldn’t do that.They’ve only met for two months.Their relationship was still fragile.With just one wrong move, that thin thread that’s connecting the two of them together could easily be snapped.If he suddenly confessed his feelings to him, that’s exactly what might just happen.

He might not only be rejected, Luo Yan might even be scared of him and avoid him for a lifetime.That’s something Shen Ji Yun couldn’t allow to happen.So, he had to at least make their connection deeper.To the point that they would have a natural tacit understanding.To at least manage to leave a mark in his heart.Even if that mark was only that of friendship.That way, even if he rejected him, they could at least remain friends.

As long as he still had a connection to him, even if they didn’t end up together, he would be satisfied.Of course, that was just his own self-righteousness talking.Because no matter how much he said that he would be alright if he could only be friends with Luo Yan as long as he could stand beside him, deep down, it would still not be enough.So, he would do his best as to not be put on the friendzone.

Yes, he knew what ’friendzone’ meant.He actually learned a lot of terms last night while browning the internet and reading various articles.He didn’t even know that those words exist.

Luo Yan stared at Shen Ji Yun’s red face.He then remembered that scene on the rooftop.He once again looked like a ripe apple.Because of the visual impact brought by his avatar, he looked even more delicious right now.Luo Yan shook his head.Why was he being perverted again?Was he seriously having an attraction towards Shen Ji Yun?But he only felt this way when he saw him blushed like that.Wait- didn’t that mean that he just enjoyed seeing him embarrassed?Was his secret inner sadistic nature simply being triggered?

He shook his head.What bunch of nonsense was he even thinking?This was all Shen Ji Yun’s fault.Looking like an iceberg beauty on weekdays but then suddenly blushing like a little girl.Of course, he would want to bully him.But was that really all?

He suddenly felt frustrated.He prided himself for being able to understand emotions quite well.But for some reason, he couldn’t pinpoint the emotion he was feeling for Shen Ji Yun.It’s like a very complicated puzzle.But he’s not in a hurry to solve it.After all, there’s still a lot of things that required his attention more.He’d just be patient.Naturally, this feeling would slowly reveal itself to him.That’s better than doing some stupid experiment.

But if he thought of a better way, aside from molesting Shen Ji Yun, he’d definitely give it a try.

"Brother Ji Yun must be joking.We’ve only seen each other yesterday," he just said as to not embarrassed Shen Ji Yun further.

Shen Ji Yun gave an awkward smile."Yes."

"Why is Brother Ji Yun using his real game avatar today?" Luo Yan asked, changing the subject.

Shen Ji Yun glanced sideways, avoiding Luo Yan’s eyes."Oh, the VR helmet of my alt account is under repairs.I accidentally dropped it yesterday.So, I have to use my real account for the time being."

Luo Yan chuckled."I didn’t know Brother Ji Yun could be clumsy as well."

Shen Ji Yun felt a bit guilty for lying.The truth was after he read a number of articles last night, he compiled everything to form a strategy.He first wanted to post on one of those forums and let those netizens, yes, another word he learned last night, helped him.But he changed his mind.Because doing that just felt like he’s not really putting too much effort into this.He could also ask his uncle for advice, but he’s not really comfortable doing that.The last time was just an exception because his mind was simply in chaos and he couldn’t think properly.At the end, he just chose to download books about emotions, relationsh.i.p.s, and love.Most importantly, books on how to court someone and make them fall for you.

He didn’t know if it would be effective.But this was the only thing he could do for now.

One of the important points he wrote down was; if you want to catch the heart of a person, you have to catch their attention first.The fastest way to do that was to always look good in front of them.That’s why beautiful people always had the advantage when it came to love compared with an ordinary-looking person.When he read that, Shen Ji Yun had never been so thankful that he had good genes.

Even though he’s not really interested in people’s appearance before, much less his own, he still knew that he looked extremely handsome in his real game avatar.That’s why he decided that from now on, he would use his real game avatar to attract Luo Yan’s attention.He knew it was a bit shameless of him to do that, but what choice did he have?

"By the way, Brother Ji Yun, if you have nothing else to do this afternoon, can you accompany me to run some errands?" Luo Yan asked.He was thinking of buying Mana fruits for Eclipse and also asked Shen Ji Yun along the way if he knew where he could get boats that he could put on the lake.

"Of course," Shen Ji Yun immediately replied without much thinking.

Wait- it’s only the two of them together.Wouldn’t this be what they call a date?
