Chapter 93 - THAT COLD-FACE DEFINITELY HAS ULTERIOR MOTIVE
WHEN Luo Yan logged out, there was still a bit of time before dinner. He went out of his room and planned to coax Luo Jin. Unsurprisingly, his younger brother was not in the living room. He asked one of the maids passing-by where Luo Jin was.
"Third young master went to second young master's room a few minutes ago. Then he left and went back again to his room," the maid answered. "Uhm… did the two young masters fight?" she hesitantly added, looking a bit worriedly.
"No. Why do you think that?"
"Because third young master left second young master's room looking displeased," the maid said worriedly.
Luo Yan raised one of his brows when he heard that. It seemed like Luo Jin was still sulking. He smiled at the maid. "I see. Thank you for telling me."
He then climbed up the stairs to the second floor. It wasn't really that much of a problem anymore, but he still had to watch out for his steps to make sure that he wouldn't accidentally fall. He walked to his brother's room and stopped in front of the door. He knocked but didn't receive a reply.
"Ah Jin? Can I come in?" he called. But there was no response. "I'm coming in, okay?"
When he still didn't get a response, he just turned the knob. Surprisingly, the door wasn't locked from the inside. So, he easily opened it and walked inside. He didn't expect to see Luo Jin sitting on the bed with the VR helmet on. Didn't he log out? Did he log in again, somehow? Then he remembered what the maid said earlier to him. A smile suddenly appeared on Luo Yan's face when he thought of the possible reason why.
Knowing Luo Jin, he was probably expecting that Luo Yan would also log out and follow him. He probably waited for him to come to him and coax him. But after going to Luo Yan's room and seeing that didn't log out as he imagined, he immediately logged in again and probably decided to pull him out of the game himself.
This kid. Luo Yan shook his head and just sat on one of the couch inside the room. He decided to just wait for Luo Jin here until he realized that he was already out of the game.
He looked around the room. This was not the first time he came here. Luo Jin's room was probably as big as his. With his own bathroom and walk-in closet. But unlike his room, the walls of this room were painted with a very neutral beige. There was a glass cabinet filled with model toy cars, beside it was a small bookshelf. There was a basketball lying on the side and a red electric guitar leaning on the wall. It's like the typical teenage boy's room. Well, a rich one to be exact.
Luo Yan heard movements from the bed and soon saw Luo Jin taking off the VR helmet. He was frowning, as if annoyed. Then when he saw him, his eyes widened like a startled hamster. His body even jerked a bit in surprised. Ah, how cute.
Luo Jin was truly startled. He didn't expect to see his second brother here. If he had a faint heart, he might have shouted already like a little girl. That would be so embarrassing!
Just like what Luo Yan thought, Luo Jin did go back to the game. He actually waited for 15 minutes before going down to his brother's room. He thought that he would have already logged out by then. But contrary to his belief, Luo Yan was still playing! Thinking that his brother was alone with that cold-face, he didn't hesitate to go inside the game again.
But when he did, the two were no longer inside the restaurant. His first thought was that that cold-face actually abducted his brother somewhere. But then he calmed down and decided to send a message to his brother. Only to find that his brother already logged out. So he didn't waste time inside the game and logged out too.
Who would have thought that his brother was here, inside his room? Luo Jin almost had a damn heart attack.
"Yan! Why are you suddenly appearing here? You almost startled me to death!" he complained. Then he remembered that he was still mad at him for calling him a 'brat'. So he raised his chin and harrumphed.
Luo Yan almost laughed because of this reaction. But he controlled his expression and looked at his brother, acting all pitiful.
"Is Ah Jin still mad at me? But Ah Jin was the one in the wrong. You shouldn't always pick a fight with Brother Ji Yun whenever you see him. Brother Ji Yun is not doing anything and yet Ah Jin is always mean to him." He sniffed, his big peach blossom eyes filling with tears. "We should only be mean to people who are mean to us. If not, then that would only make us bullies, right? I don't want Ah Jin to be a bully."
Luo Jin couldn't counter what his second brother said. Aside from the fact that he's really weak whenever Luo Yan had this 'on the verge of crying' look, he couldn't think of a justifiable reason why he didn't like that cold-face. He couldn't continue saying that it was because he was sure that guy had ulterior motives for trying to get close to Luo Yan. It's already becoming a tiresome excuse. Especially since this time, the one who sent a message first was his brother.
Argh- was he just overthinking too much?
Luo Jin turned back to his brother who had this look like if he didn't receive the answer he wanted, he would really cry at any second.
He sighed. "I understand. I won't do that again."
"Truly?" Luo Yan asked, as if unsure if he was telling the truth.
Luo Jin gritted his teeth. "Truly!"
Luo Yan finally smiled. "That's good. Because Brother Ji Yun invited us to join his team. I already told you about teams in Arcadia, right? I think there's no harm if we consider joining Brother Ji Yun's team."
When Luo Jin heard that, his face darkened. No, he was taking it back. He was definitely not overthinking. That cold-face bastard definitely had an ulterior motive! But looking at his brother's hopeful face, he couldn't possibly say that and tell him that they shouldn't join that guy's team.
"The team only have three members, including Brother Ji Yun. So I don't think it would be hard for us to get along with them. What do you think?" Luo Yan added.
A lot of thoughts crossed Luo Jin's mind. He wanted to disagree but in the end he could only say, "Let's meet them first before we decide."
Luo Yan thought that his brother's answer was pretty reasonable. "Okay."
He then went out of his brother's room and walked back to his own room.
The moment he entered his room, he saw his phone that was on his study table lighting up. He walked towards it and picked it up. It was a notification from WeChat – someone wanted to add him as a friend. He then remembered that he gave his WeChat ID to Shen Ji Yun.
Luo Yan opened it and saw a profile picture of the blue sky. Beside it was the name; Shen Ji Yun [ID: luckycloud].
He stared at that [luckycloud]. If he was not mistaken, that was the English translation of his name 'Ji Yun'. He smiled a little. Really, what an unimaginative name.
Luo Yan didn't hesitate to approve it.
