Chapter 271 - A FALLING ACCIDENT
YUN: [Yan Yan, where are you? I'll go to you, then we could both go to your Origin Village.]
After reading that, Luo Yan quickly sent a reply.
Noctis: [No, it's okay. How about we just meet at that place you took me before? That island with a big white tree?]
He was talking about the floating island that Shen Ji Yun owned. When they went there, the other gave him a special teleportation scroll that would allow him to directly teleport there. If Luo Jin also happened to log into the game and saw them together at their team's headquarters, that younger brother of his would definitely make a fuss again. So, just in case, it's better to meet in a place where only he and Shen Ji Yun could go.
Realizing the meaning behind what he just thought, Luo Yan couldn't help but shook his head again. He was already unknowingly treating Luo Jin like some kind of third-wheel. No, it's not like he already made a decision regarding Shen Ji Yun. It's only because his younger brother was too antagonistic when it came to the other.
It's like he's a cat whose tail was always being pinched whenever he saw Shen Ji Yun. So, Luo Yan was only doing this to prevent Luo Jin from getting in the way of him and Shen Ji Yun going to that dragon. After all, he already promised the other that he would show him the cave where the dragon was.
Yes, that was definitely the only reason.
YUN: [Okay, let's go and meet there.]
After reading Shen Ji Yun's reply, Luo Yan closed his Status Window.
[Mashter, are we going to meet Captain?] – Eclipsed asked.
[Yes, we're going to meet your favorite Captain.]
Then Luo Yan took out the teleportation scroll and used it. The feeling of being pulled inside a vacuum immediately appeared. He automatically closed his eyes. Seriously, the game developers should really do something with this teleportation thing. They should make the transition from one place to another much smoother. He bet players with weak stomach would definitely feel faint whenever they used the teleportation scroll.
When he opened his eyes, he was already on the floating island as evidence of the huge tree with white leaves. Then standing under it was Shen Ji Yun. His long dark purple hair was swaying gently with the passing breeze. His amethyst beast-like eyes were staring faintly at a distance. With white leaves falling around him like snow, it was truly such a captivating scene.
Luo Yan couldn't help but admit that Shen Ji Yun was really good-looking. He's probably there at the top among the most good-looking people he had seen. Both in his past life and in this one. Just look at that face and that body. If his willpower was just slightly weaker, he had probably already been seduced. No one would probably even blame him if he did.
But he needed to be more mature about this. After all, mentally speaking, he was much older than Shen Ji Yun. He was 22 in his past life when he died, combined that with the seven years he spent in a coma, he was technically 29 now. Nine years older that Shen Ji Yun. So, he needed to be the one making the mature decision. Even though he often acted spoiled around his family, that didn't mean that he would also act like some hot-blooded youth when it came to things that could decide his future.
If he chose Shen Ji Yun, then that meant that he was choosing him as his partner for a life time. So, it's only not him that should be sure. Shen Ji Yun should also have the same resolve as him.
[Mashter, Captain is so handsome!] – Eclipse praised unabashedly.
Luo Yan started to walk towards the direction where Shen Jin Yun was standing. When they were a few steps away, the little fox suddenly jumped, trying to go to Shen Ji Yun. That's only when he noticed that the two of them were still covered by the Invisibility Cloak. Because he didn't really wear the cloak and just put it over his head so that it could cover him and Eclipse, the moment the little fox jumped, he brought over the cloak with him. He tried to stop Eclipse but it was already too late.
Without the cloak, Luo Yan suddenly appeared in front of Shen Ji Yun which really shocked the other. But he didn't have time to react because he suddenly felt a force hitting his chest. As if some kind of ball was suddenly thrown into him. Because it was too unexpected, Shen Ji Yun immediately lost his balance and was about to fall backward.
Luo Yan who saw this knew that it was Eclipse's fault. He didn't think much and quickly grabbed Shen Ji Yun's hand. But he didn't expect that he wouldn't be able to hold the weight of the other. Causing him to fall alongside Shen Ji Yun. He suddenly felt the other holding his waist and the back of his head. That's why when they fell on the ground, he didn't feel much because Shen Ji Yun shouldered the whole impact of the fall.
He immediately raised his head and asked worriedly, "Are you alright?"
That's when he noticed how close the two of them were right now. Their bodies were almost sticking together. Their faces were also only a few inches apart. Not only could Luo Yan feel Shen Ji Yun's strong arm around his waist, he could also feel his breath on his face. He could even hear the other's fast heartbeat. It's like the heartbeat of someone running a marathon. A sign that the other was very nervous right now. He didn't know why, but it also suddenly made him nervous.
The two stared at each other's eyes. When he noticed that Shen Ji Yun's gaze moved down to his lips, his whole face suddenly heated up. He had no doubt that his whole face was burning red right now.
"B-Brother Ji Yun, could you let me go?" he said in a shy voice that he almost didn't recognize.
