LUO YAN was shocked to hear that Shen Ji Yun would so honestly admit that to his uncle. Was it because he reprimanded him earlier about not being honest when he asked him if he purposely went here to follow him? That’s why he was being so honest right now? But this and that werepletely different things!


    [Brother Ji Yun, you should really know when to tell the truth and when to make an excuse!] – heined in his mind.


    If Luo Yan was shock, then Shen Yi Mu received a stronger shock.


    Did he just hear it correctly? His nephew just admitted that the reason he invited him here was because he knew that Luo Yan and his family would go here for vacation. He suddenly didn’t know what shocked him more. The fact that Ji Yun didn’t really want to go on a family vacation with him or that he only wanted to go here because he wanted to meet Luo Yan.


    Either way, Shen Yi Mu felt like he was hit greatly.


    Luo Yanughed. "Oh Brother Ji Yun, why are you suddenly joking like that?"


    The way Shen Ji Yun said that so straightforwardly that he followed him here in Chengdu, it was almost as if he was announcing to his uncle that this was the person he liked. Luo Yan didn’t know if he should be worried about him or mad that he wasn’t thinking of what the result of that simple slip up could be. In any case, he couldn’t let things be awkward between Shen Ji Yun and his uncle.


    "I’m n—" Shen Ji Yun was about to say that he’s not joking but when he saw Luo Yan smiling at him, not his usual sweet smile but the kind of smile he usually showed when he was threatening someone. Shen Ji Yun felt like if he didn’t change what he just said, he would definitely be punished by his rabbit. "Yes, I was only joking."


    Shen Yi Mu looked at his nephew who was obviously lying through his teeth. He was this kid’s guardian for more than a decade already. He knew how bad he was at lying. Making him the type to never talk nonsense. But it didn’t matter since it suited his cold personality and expressionless face quite well.


    So, what happened to that nephew and who was this in front of him?


    He couldn’t help but give Luo Yan a nce. He had a feeling that this change in Ji Yun had something to do with this beautiful boy. And he didn’t exactly know what to do or what to feel about that.


    Luo Yan turned to Shen Yi Mu and saw the other looking at him apprehensively. He suddenly became nervous. He wouldn’t think that he was being a bad influence to his nephew, right?


    Before things could spiral into a bad situation, he quickly said, "Uncle Yi Mu, my Dad is actually inviting you and Brother Ji Yun for dinnerter. I hope the two of you could join us."


    "We’ll be there," Shen Ji Yun said before his uncle could even speak.


    Shen Yi Mu gave his nephew a side-long nce.


    "Then, I’ll be going now," Luo Yan said.


    "I’ll send you back," Shen Ji Yun said which earned him another nce from his uncle.


    Luo Yan also saw these two nces. He truly wanted to pinch Shen Ji Yun’s cheek and asked him if he couldn’t be any more obvious.


    "No, Brother Ji Yun, just stay here."


    After he said that, he didn’t wait for Shen Ji Yun to response and quickly ran out of the room.


    Shen Ji Yun could only stare at Luo Yan’s disappearing back.


    "The person had already left," Shen Yi Mu said when he saw that Ji Yun was still staring at the door.


    "Yeah," Shen Ji Yun simply said.


    Shen Yi Mu sat back on the couch and observed his nephew. "This boy, Luo Yan, he’s your new team mate?"


    Shen Ji Yun finally took back his gaze and sat down on the opposite seat. "Yes. He only started ying after thistest update. He’s the one who got the special race ’moon elf’."


    Shen Yi Mu was surprised when he heard that. He remembered that moon elf quite well. Not only because he was the first yer who got the moon elf race but also because he obtained Yuexing Pavilion.


    But most important of all, he suspected that this moon elf – this Noctis – was the person his nephew was fascinated with.


    He still remembered how Ji Yun asked him and Zhao Cheng a favor just so ’Noctis’ could sessfully put the Yuexing Pavilion into a good area in the game. It was also around the same time when he asked him about how could one tell when they were in love with someone. That’s why he suspected that the person Ji Yun was in love with was his new team mate – Noctis.


    Now, his nephew was actually telling him that the beautiful boy he just met was this ’Noctis’. How could he not be surprised?


    Now all of Ji Yun’s actions started to make sense. If his guess was correct and Ji Yun was in love with Luo Yan, then it could exin all Ji Yun’s weird behavior just now.


    Then Shen Yi Mu suddenly felt awkward and worried at the same time.


    If Ji Yun was indeed in love with Luo Yan, then his nephew would surely face the same problems he did when he fell in love with Jiang Yue. But unlike him back then, Ji Yun was not alone. He was here to be his support. It’s a road that not many would dare to travel. But it could be infinitely bearable if one knew that someone got their back.


    Shen Yi Mu would be there, supporting Ji Yun all way. Whether it ended up in heartache or happiness, he would be there.


    It’s just that, he didn’t expect that Ji Yun would fall in love with someone who looked so young. Seeing the height difference between the two, it almost felt criminal.


    He looked at Ji Yun and thought that maybe he should give him that kind of ’adult’ talk. So, he wouldn’t really turn into a criminal.
