Chapter 877: ALL GROWN UP

[YANYAN1213]: Good morning! I miss you already.

[luckycloud]: Good morning. I miss you too. *attached blushing rabbit sticker*

Luo Yan smiled when he read that. He sent a reply on WeChat. He continued to chat with the other while travelling to school.

Luo Jin glanced at his brother when he heard the other giggling for the nth time. The other had a stupid grin on his face that for some reason was getting on his nerves. He wanted to peak at Luo Yan’s phone just to see what was so funny. But he felt like that was too shameless. So, he resisted the urge and just sat still.

But he still couldn’t stop his curiosity. Probably because he had a feeling that his brother was smiling like that because of Shen Ji Yun. “Are you chatting with someone?”

Luo Yan glanced at his brother. “Yep.”

Luo Jin frowned. Because he was sure that the person on the other end of that line was definitely Shen Ji Yun. As much as he hated to admit it, who else could put that kind of smile on Luo Yan’s face besides that guy?

“Tsk.”

He crossed his arms on his chest and just chose to look outside the window. He’s afraid that if he continued to pry more, he would just end up even more annoyed.

Luo Yan looked at his brother with amusement. He was actually expecting the other to ask who he was chatting with. He was ready to say ‘Brother Ji Yun’ if he did. But to his surprise, Luo Jin actually didn’t ask further.

But seeing as how the other was pouting, Luo Jin might already have an idea on who he was chatting with. And the other obviously didn’t like it. Despite that, Luo Jin didn’t say anything. Which was uncharacteristic of him.

“Ah Jin, won’t you ask who it is? The one I’m chatting with, I mean,” he asked in a teasing voice.

“Hmp. I’m not interested,” Luo Jin answered in a sulky tone.

Luo Yan smiled inwardly, thinking how cute Luo Jin was.

After arriving at school, the brothers each both went to their respective teaching buildings. Because it was still a bit early, when Luo Yan walked into his classroom, there weren’t that many people inside yet.

“Good morning!” he greeted everyone inside the classroom. The others also greeted him back.

He just sat down on his seat when the door opened again and Yu Jiao walked in. He waved at Yu Jiao and the other also gave him a small wave. He waited until Yu Jiao put down her bag before approaching her.

“Jiao Jiao, let’s go out for a bit, I have some news to share to you,” he said.

Yu Jiao, feeling a bit curious and confused as well, nodded.

Since there was still a lot of time left before homeroom started, Luo Yan chose the rooftop for them to have a private conversation.

“Yan Yan, what is it?” Yu Jiao asked when they reached the rooftop.

If the other chose such a place for them to talk, then what he’s going to share with Yu Jiao must be a secret.

Luo Yan glanced around first, making sure that no one was around. But even though he confirmed that there really was only two of them on the rooftop, he still controlled his voice so only Yu Jiao could hear it.

“Brother Ji Yun confessed to me,” he started. “And I agreed.”

Yu Jiao felt like Luo Yan just threw a bomb at her and because she was so unprepared, it blew right in front of her face. “What?”

Luo Yan almost chuckled seeing Yu Jiao’s dazed expression. So, he repeated what he just said.

“You mean- the two of you are now—”

“Yes, Brother Ji Yun and I are now what people would consider as boyfriends,” Luo Yan said very proudly.

Yu Jiao observed the other’s expression. She could see how much Luo Yan was brimming with happiness. Even the way he said that Shen Ji Yun was his boyfriend felt like a proud peacock showing off his colorful feathers. Anyone who could see him right now could tell how extremely happy he was.

So, she also couldn’t stop herself from smiling and feeling happy for the other. “Congratulations. I wish you and Shen Ji Yun eternal happiness.”

Luo Yan smiled hearing that. Especially since he could see that the other was truly happy for him. It’s indeed a rare thing to meet a friend who could accept one for who they truly were. Yu Jiao didn’t even ask him ‘why’ or ‘how’, she just wholeheartedly congratulated him and wished him happiness.

“Thank you, Jiao Jiao.”

[B City]

Shen Ji Yun was walking on campus and on his way to class when he heard a familiar voice calling his name.

“Ji Yun!”

He looked back and saw Bai Ze running towards him.

“Hey, where did you go last Friday?” the other asked as soon as he arrived by his side. “I was looking all over for you. You didn’t even answer my messages. You also didn’t play Arcadia. So, where were you?”

Shen Ji Yun raised his brow. Why did he feel like he’s being interrogated by his wife or something? He probably wouldn’t feel that if not for being in a new relationship himself. He suddenly felt proud. Just thinking that he and Luo Yan were now officially together, he wanted to push his chest out and shout loudly to everyone that he was Luo Yan’s boyfriend.

“I accompanied Yan Yan and his family to Hunan province,” he answered honestly.

Bai Ze was truly surprised to hear that answer. He knew about Luo Yan going to Hunan province because his cousin had mentioned it to them. He just didn’t expect that Shen Ji Yun would actually go there.

He whistled in admiration. “Wow. Ji Yun, you really leveled up.” He wiped fake tears. “Look at you, my friend, you’re all grown up.”

Shen Ji Yun gave Bai Ze a sideway glance. Oh, if you only knew.
