BXBX NOVEL Chapter 220 TO SCALE TWO TALL WALLS
But when he tried to contact Shen Ji Yun, his fingers just refused to move.It’s like the word ’shame’ suddenly became a part of his vocabulary.That’s the only reason he could think why he suddenly couldn’t contact Shen Ji Yun.Because he was embarrassed to do so.
Something very unlike him.
He was planning to just talk to him in the game and apologize there if he didn’t manage to meet him today.But who would have thought that he would come here himself?
"Ji Yun, are you here to say goodbye to Xiao Yan and Xiao Jin?" Bai Ze asked when Shen Ji Yun reached them.
Shen Ji Yun couldn’t care less about the gnome.But he couldn’t really say that straight when the rest of his family was here.Especially since he was still Luo Yan’s brother.No matter how much he annoyed Shen Ji Yun, he was still one of the people he needed to gain approval from in order to be with Luo Yan.
"Yes," he just answered, but his gaze never left Luo Yan.Obviously telling others that he was only really there for Luo Yan.Then he realized what he’s doing and immediately turned to Luo Yan’s father."Good morning, Sir.I hope I’m not bothering you for coming here."
The most important approval he needed to gain was from Luo Yan’s father.So, he needed to show him his good sides.Even though he might appear all rigid because he couldn’t properly show his expression on his face, he at least wanted to be seen as someone polite and with proper manners.
"No, it’s okay," Luo Wei Tian said.
He heard a little from Bai Chen about this kid’s situation.So, he couldn’t help but feel a bit sympathetic towards him.
Luo Ren suddenly put his arm around Luo Yan’s shoulders."Thank you for being such a good friend to my brothers."
Shen Ji Yun glanced at Luo Ren.Although he wasn’t showing his dislike of him upfront like Luo Jin, Shen Ji Yun could still feel that this older brother Luo didn’t like him that much.Now that he realized his feelings, he suddenly wondered if these two sensed that he’s interest in their brother might be not so platonic.That’s why they couldn’t help but just dislike him.
If that was the case, then he could understand a bit why they were acting like that towards him.If he also had a brother as adorable as Luo Yan, he would also act the same way.
He took his gaze back and looked at Luo Yan once more.Although he said that he would chase him, he truly had no idea how he would do that.He couldn’t just directly confess.That would surely earn him a rejection.He needed to be battle-prepared.Maybe he should consult the internet once again.Those people from before were pretty helpful.
Luo Yan turned slightly to his older brother."Brother, I have to talk to Brother Ji Yun about something.Can you let go of my shoulders, please?"
Luo Ren stopped for a bit and then smiled at Luo Yan."You can just tell him whatever you want right here."
"No, I have to tell it to him alone," Luo Yan insisted.
"What can you say to him that you can’t say while you’re around us?" Luo Jin said, clearly a bit disgruntled.
Luo Yan sighed.Seriously, why were these two suddenly teaming up right now?So, he could only glance over his father and give him his puppy dog eyes – trying to look pitiful and adorable at the same time.Which, of course, immediately worked.
"You two, stop being unreasonable and just let your brother talk to Ji Yun."
After his father said that, Luo Yan removed Luo Ren’s arm from his shoulders and quickly pulled Shen Ji Yun a few distance away from the rest.Not that far that they would not be seen.But not so close either that they could easily hear what they’re talking about.
He didn’t dally and just went straight to the point."Brother Ji Yun, I’m sorry for the things I did yesterday.I hope you were not offended."
Shen Ji Yun was confused at first why Luo Yan would think that.And then he remembered the way he acted after that incident on the rooftop.If he was on Luo Yan’s shoes, he would definitely have the same idea.He suddenly wanted to kick himself for acting so awkward yesterday.
"No, I was not offended," he quickly said."I was just surprised, that’s all.But not offended.So, there’s no need for you to apologize."
Luo Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that."Then why were Brother Ji Yun acting like you were mad at me or something?You wouldn’t even look at me yesterday," he said, sulking a bit.
Shen Ji Yun tried his best not to move his hand and pinch Luo Yan’s cheek.He just looked so cute, sulking like that."How could I be mad at you?I was just surprised."
"I still feel a bit guilty though," Luo Yan said, which was true.Because even if Shen Ji Yun said that he wasn’t offended, at some level, it definitely made him uncomfortable."If there’s anything I can do to make it up to you, tell me, okay?And you definitely can’t say ’no’."
Shen Ji Yun smiled helplessly.He no longer resisted and just pinched Luo Yan’s cheek."Okay."
Then Luo Yan was startled when both his hands were suddenly held.He turned his head from side to side and saw both his brothers holding each of his hands.He didn’t even notice when the two approached them.
"It’s time to go inside," Luo Ren said, smiling down at Luo Yan.Then he looked at Shen Ji Yun, no longer smiling.His gaze full of silent warning.
Luo Jin, on the side, was also glaring at Shen Ji Yun.
And the two pulled Luo Yan away.Luo Yan could only helplessly glance back at Shen Ji Yun and smiled apologetically at him.Shen Ji Yun nodded as if telling him that he understood.
Shen Ji Yun stared at the back of the three and could only sigh.It seemed like there’s really a very long road ahead of him.And before he could even reach Luo Yan, he probably had to scale two tall walls named Luo Ren and Luo Jin.After that, a guard by the name of their father would probably be still waiting for him.Once again, he could only sigh.
But that didn’t matter.Because he would still forge ahead.He would scale any walls and climb any mountain as long as it would lead him to Luo Yan.
