Chapter 886: WHEN?
Chapter 886: WHEN?
AFTER logging out of the game, Luo Yan temporarily put away the thoughts about the favor Uriel might ask of him. Since it’s still on Saturday, he might as well think of things that needed his attention urgently.
Like telling his older brother about his relationship with Shen Ji Yun for example.
With that thought in mind, he walked out of his room and climbed to the second floor. He first went to Luo Jin’s room and knocked on the door. After a while, it opened and his younger brother peaked out of the door. When the other saw him, a visible frown appeared on his face.
“What is it?” Luo Jin asked.
Luo Yan smiled. His brother was obviously still sulking. The other might have made some concessions in regards to Luo Yan’s relationship with Shen Ji Yun, but that didn’t mean that he had fully accepted it.
That’s fine though. What’s important right now was Luo Jin not showing his displeasure every time he saw him and Shen Ji Yun together. Or constantly antagonized the other. Luo Jin’s issue with Shen Ji Yun could easily be solved with time.
His brother might not still accept his relationship with Shen Ji Yun right now, but as time passed by, he was sure that the other would be able to see just how much Shen Ji Yun truly treasured him.
“I want to say thank you to Ah Jin,” he said first.

Luo Jin scoffed. “What’s there to thank about.”
“I’m just happy that Ah Jin and Brother Ji Yun had a good talk,” Luo Yan said. “I actually thought you would be more against our relationship.”
“It’s not as if I could do anything when you’re already decided on the guy,” Luo Jin grumbled. “I’ll be keeping an eye on him though! If that bast- I mean, if that guy hurts you in any way, I’ll return the pain a thousand- no, a million fold!”
And Luo Yan had no doubt that Luo Jin would really do that. He smiled, reached out his hand and ruffled his brother’s hair. “Aww… our Ah Jin is really sweet. How could I have such a sweet brother like you?”
Luo Jin’s whole face turned red and he quickly ducked his head to avoid Luo Yan’s hand. “Who- who’s sweet? Your—” He stopped since he was about to say ‘your whole family is sweet’. Saying that would only defeat its purpose since Luo Yan was his family. So, he could only add, “Don’t call me that!”
“Yes, yes,” Luo Yan said chuckling. “Good night, Ah Jin.”
After pinching his brother’s cheek one last time, he turned around and walked towards his older brother’s room.
Once he was in front of Luo Ren’s room, he suddenly felt nervous. Truth to be told, Luo Jin was much more easier to handle. Because despite the other always acting prickly, he’s really just a soft marshmallow inside. But Luo Ren was different. The other was very similar to Luo Yan in a sense. That’s why he’s much harder to handle.
Anyway, no matter how nervous or worried Luo Yan was, it wouldn’t change the fact that he still had to knock on this door and talk to his older brother. So, he took a deep breath and calmed his mind. After a few seconds, he finally raised his hand and knocked on the door.
The door quickly opened and Luo Ren greeted him with a gentle smile.
“Do you need something, Yan Yan?”
“I want to talk to Brother. Can I go inside?” Luo Yan asked.
“Sure.”
Luo Ren opened the door wider and Luo Yan walked in. He had been in his brother’s room before so he already knew the minimalistic interior, as well as the use of cool-toned wallpapers and bed sheet.
Luo Yan sat down on the chair that kind of served as his brother’s reading nook. Luo Ren also sat down on his bed.
“So, what is it you want to talk about?” Luo Ren asked first.
“Well, there’s really no other way of saying this so I’ll just tell it straight.” Luo Yan took a deep breath once again before continuing, “I and Brother Ji Yun are now officially dating.”
Luo Ren’s brain blanked out for a second when he heard that. He even wondered if he wasn’t having any auditory hallucination. But seeing Luo Yan’s expression and the way he’s looking straight at him as if he wanted him to know that he meant everything that he just said, Luo Ren knew that his brain was simply not playing tricks on him.
Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun were indeed officially together.
After his brain registered that fact, he immediately felt intense disapproval. If he didn’t manage to control himself, he might have already shouted, ‘no, I don’t approve!’. But that didn’t mean that he quickly accepted this relationship. He was just controlling his emotions really, really well.
But the furrowing of his brows couldn’t be controlled, as well as the sudden drop of temperature inside the room. That’s why Luo Yan could feel that Luo Ren’s reaction to this particular news was not very welcoming.
Still, it was something that he had already expected. So, the outcome was pretty much within his expectations.
“Brother, I know you might disagree with this relationship. You might even think that I’m still too young to enter in a relationship like this. But I just wanted you to know that I’m in full control of my faculties. I know what I’m doing and most of all, I know what I’m feeling.
“Just like what I have already told you and Ah Jin before, I like- no, I love Brother Ji Yun. And since he confessed to me, it would be kind of hypocritical to reject him when the two of us feel the same way. Don’t you think so as well, Brother?”
Luo Yan said in a tone as if what he did was just a natural course of action. Which it was, by the way.
But instead of focusing on the other things he said, his brother seemed to focus on only one thing.
“He confessed to you?” Luo Ren smiled, but it didn’t reach his eyes at all. “When?”
