Chapter 209 - A SIMPLE PLAN
"LUO YAN?" Su Yuqi asked tentatively.
Luo Yan tilted his head and smiled. "Yes."
Su Yuqi stared at the kid in front of him. Well, for one, he certainly looked pretty. And if one looked more closely at his face and made it a bit mature, he would definitely look exactly as Noctis the moon elf. But even if that was the case, the atmosphere he was giving out right now was totally different when he was in the game.
When he's Noctis, he was giving off this noble feel. Like a beautiful and untouchable flower. You could look but you certainly couldn't touch. But in reality, that was definitely not the case. Looking at him, all Su Yuqi could see was a soft, big mochi.
For the first time, she suddenly had an urge to squeeze someone. To pinch them so hard until their cheeks bleed. Should she just do it? Her hands were certainly itching for her to do it.
"Yuqi," called Shen Ji Yun's cold voice. "Whatever you're thinking, don't do it."
Su Yuqi glanced at Shen Ji Yun and just shrugged. "I'm not thinking of anything."
"Lie! You're certainly thinking of something diabolical," Bai Ze interjected. "You're looking at Xiao Yan with that blank mean look in your eyes. When your eyes get like that, it's a sign that you're up to no good."
"Stop making me sound like some creep, stupid Bai Ze," Su Yuqi said, about to hit Bai Ze's shin.
But Bai Ze quickly jumped away, as if he already expected the attack. It's quite obvious that they had done this kind of routine quite a number of times. This just showed how well the two, even Shen Ji Yun, knew one another.
"You really should remember you're a girl and stop being so violent," Bai Ze said snidely.
"What's wrong with that?" Luo Jin suddenly said. "If boys can be violent, then girls can be too. That's called equality. Brother Ze should not discriminate."
Su Yuqi chuckled and ruffled Luo Jin's hair. Since she's tall, it was easy for her to do it. "Nice comeback, Luo Jin." She turned to Bai Ze. "You should learn more from your cousin."
Bai Ze only snorted.
Luo Jin, on the other hand, touched his hair and then looked down. Probably because he instinctively knew that his expression was pretty embarrassing right now. He probably thought no one was looking at him. But there were two who actually were. His brothers.
"It seemed like our younger brother is totally whipped," Luo Ren said in a voice that only he and Luo Yan could hear.
"Then Brother should work harder. It wouldn't look good if Ah Jin get a girlfriend first before you," Luo Yan teased, also in a voice that they could only hear.
Luo Ren glanced at Luo Jin and Su Yuqi. "Nah. Xiao Jin still had a long way to go before that could happen. Besides," he gazed down at Luo Yan. "Who needs a girlfriend when I have Yan Yan?"
Luo Yan could only laugh. Then he turned to everyone. "Shall we start going around the campus?"
"Right. Where do you want to go, Xiao Yan? Ji Yun and I could take you whichever place you want," Bai Ze said.
"How about going to the Department of Computer Science and Technology?" Shen Ji Yun suggested.
Luo Yan looked at Shen Ji Yun and almost gave him a thumbs-up. He was actually just about to suggest that, but it's a good thing that Shen Ji Yun said it first. Now he didn't have to explain why he wanted to go there. Shen Ji Yun probably only suggested it because he told him once that he was planning to take Computer Science as his major. He's a bit happy that he still remembered that small fact.
His plan was a bit simple, really. He would just have to talk to one of the teachers here and carefully breach the topic of 'Luo Yan' – his past life. Surely one of the professors from back then should have an information – no matter how small - on what happened to him. He was, after all, a very famous student in their department back then. Almost all the professors in their department knew of him.
Although today was a holiday, with a famous university like this, there would definitely be one or two professors working here today, overworking themselves. He just had to find them. Though he already had an idea where to find one. If that person hadn't resigned in the past seven years, then he'd definitely be here. Probably still tinkering in that place.
"Great idea," he said, agreeing to Shen Ji Yun. "It's Brother Ji Yun's department, right? I also want to go there."
"Is Yan Yan interested in computers?" Luo Ren asked, noticing his brother's undisguised enthusiasm when Shen Ji Yun said they should visit the Department of Computer Science and Technology.
"Yes. Ever since I played Arcadia, I've been very interested in computers. Because games couldn't be made without them. And I wanted to make my own games in the future," Luo Yan answered.
Well, it's not like he's lying. Because one, Arcadia was truly the reason why he took Computer Science as a major. And two, it was indeed his dream to make games. It was the reason why he was so excited to work for Moonlight Media during his last life.
"What a wonderful goal, Xiao Yan," Bai Ze said. "Did you decide on that after spending so much time with Ji Yun?"
"Huh? Brother Ze, don't you think that's quite a stretch? What does this guy had anything to do with Yan's goal?" Luo Jin immediately refuted while pointing his thumb at Shen Ji Yun.
Luo Ren had the same thoughts. Having his brother chose a goal in life just because of the influence of some random guy doesn't really sit well with him.
"Because Ji Yun also has the same major and he's the nephew of the one who created Arcadia," Bai Ze answered quite straightforwardly.
Luo Yan clapped his hand to get everyone's attention. "Anyway, why don't we all just go there?" he said before their discussion turned to another argument which would just cause them to waste more time here. With that, he walked forward. Then he turned around and face the others, a sweet smile on his pretty face. "Okay?"
Seeing his smile, the others all had the same thought; [Cute…]
