Chapter 256 DID I JUST COAX HIM?
[OF course, he’s special!He’s the person I fell in love with, after all.]But Shen Ji Yun couldn’t just shout that so blatantly.From the way this Alucard was acting, it was obvious that he was suspecting that Luo Yan was not an ordinary ’NPC’.And since this guy had seen Luo Yan’s game avatar up close, it was even possible that he was thinking that this ’NPC’ was the white-haired elf Noctis.Good thing he arrived at the right time to intervene.
"So, in your opinion, an NPC should be special for someone to protect them and prevent others from harassing them?Sure enough, your moral standard is really quite low," he said with no emotion in his voice but anyone could see the mockery in his amethyst beast-like eyes.
Xu Ru suddenly felt a faint throbbing of his vein on his forehead.He always had a good temper and rarely became annoyed with anything.For him, as long as it’s something fun and interesting, his temper wouldn’t be stabbed.But this guy’s tongue was simply too poisonous.Add that to the fact that he said these things with such an expressionless face and the target of his criticism would definitely have their blood pressure rising.
He gritted his teeth but still retained his nonchalant smile."It’s not a question of having a high moral.It’s just a simple curiosity.Wouldn’t anyone be curious seeing such a beautifully designed NPC?Wouldn’t they want to take a peek at the beauty hiding beneath?That’s simple human nature.But that’s probably something you wouldn’t understand, right?After all, you’re as emotionless as they come."
That last line really ticked off Luo Yan.What emotionless?If Shen Ji Yun was emotionless, then how come he fell for him?He really wanted to beat this Alucard.But he’s playing the role of an NPC right now.He could see that this jerk was already suspecting that he’s Noctis.If he acted out of place, then his disguise would definitely be taken down.
He suddenly felt that temperature around them went down a few degrees.He secretly glanced at Shen Ji Yun.Although the other was still expressionless, he could still see the faint anger and impatience in his eyes.
Luo Yan sighed.Before Shen Ji Yun really ended up beating up Alucard, although he also didn’t mind seeing that, he still decided to step in between the two.After all, he didn’t want a brawl to happen during the opening of his pavilion.The two were both famous players.If they fought here, then all the people would just talk about their fight tomorrow instead of how elegant and beautiful his pavilion was.How could he let that happen?
"Distinguished guests, please calm yourselves.Fighting is not allowed inside our pavilion," he said in a soft tone.
After he said that, the door of the private box where he just visited earlier opened and a woman with wine red hair and a pair of ram-like horns on her head peered outside.Her charming eyes stared at each and every person as if analyzing the situation.And when it seemed like she understood what was happening, her eyes narrowed at Alucard.This walking seductress was Lilith, another member of team Sanguis.
"Did you just harass an NPC?" she asked.
Xu Ru almost didn’t hold up his smile."Princess, how could you say that?When did I ever harass an NPC?"
Qin Rushi glanced at the blue-haired wolf hiding behind Xu Ru."He really didn’t?"
Tang Xun quickly shook his head."No.Brother Ru just tried to hug this elf NPC."
Xu Ru suddenly had an urge to beat up this kid.He glared at Tang Xun who only looked confusedly at him.This pig team mate.Before he could explain to Qin Rushi, the other already walked to him and pulled his ear."Aw- aw- princess—"
"Don’t talk!"Qin Rushi turned to Luo Yan."I apologize for his behavior.Our team will compensate Yuexing Pavilion for his action."
Luo Yan hadn’t had the time to answer because Lilith already pulled Alucard by the ear and stuffed him inside the private box arranged for team Sanguis.
"What are you standing silly there for?Go inside!" she shouted at the blue-faired wolf.
The other immediately followed the two and smartly closed the door after.
Luo Yan was a bit amused by this.It seemed like in team Sanguis, the vice-captain Lilith was the one truly holding the reins.
"He hugged you?" Shen Ji Yun suddenly asked.
Luo Yan looked up and saw the other’s dark face.With just that simple question, he could readily smell the scent of vinegar.Was this guy being jealous?If he didn’t know about how the other felt about him, he probably wouldn’t think that.But now that he knew, the sign was pretty obvious.
He smiled.How come this guy could transform to a big vinegar jar so easily?"He didn’t.I threw him over my shoulder before he could."
Although the other clamped his waist, that could hardly count as a hug.
"Hmm."
Luo Yan stared at Shen Ji Yun.His face was still stinky.Obviously, he was still upset by what he heard.So, Luo Yan just decided to change the topic."What is Brother Ji Yun doing outside?"
"Just went out for a walk," Shen Ji Yun simply said.
In truth, when that gnome went to their private box earlier, he heard that Luo Yan was making rounds.Their room was on a pretty good location, but it would take a while before Luo Yan could go to them.So, he decided to just go outside and take a walk, hoping that he could meet his rabbit along the way.
Who would have thought that he would see Alucard trying to pull the veil on Luo Yan’s face?And now, he just found out that the bastard also tried to hug him.His face became ugly again.If he just arrived a little bit earlier, then maybe he could teach that guy a lesson.Then maybe he should challenge him to a PK fight.He’d definitely cut off those hands that tried to touch Luo Yan.
"Then go back and just wait for me at our team’s private box," Luo Yan said."It wouldn’t be good if other players see you here."
Yes, especially those from team Sirens.
"Are you telling me to go away?"
Luo Yan wasn’t sure if it’s just his imagination, but he felt like he heard an aggrieved tone in Shen Ji Yun’s voice just now."I’m not.We couldn’t interact for long in the open like this anyway.So, it’s better to just wait for me in our team’s private box."
Shen Ji Yun sighed, understanding what Luo Yan meant."I know.I’ll wait for you at our team’s private box."
Then he reluctantly walked back.
Luo Yan looked at Shen Ji Yun’s figure. Why did it feel like he just coaxed the other? He smiled regardless. Suddenly, his bad mood disappeared and it became even better.
