The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

IT was already evening when Luo Yan logged out of the game. He planned to return later when it's time for the public opening of his pavilion. Although he wouldn't appear in his NPC persona, he still had to see how things would go. So, he would go as a customer and watch things from the sideline. 

He was not worried that the guests would complain just because the pretty black-haired elf sister wasn't there. Because he prepared an extravagant program today that they wouldn't even notice that he wasn't there. It's better if as early as now, the customers of the pavilion would get used to his absence. He didn't want the pavilion to be equated to his NPC persona. 

When players think of Yuexing Pavilion, the first thing he wanted them to think was excellence. Excellent food and drinks, excellent service, excellent programs, and just simply excellent everything. It wouldn't be good if customers only go to his pavilion just because of one reason. Because sooner or later, the novelty of that would wear off and then the business would surely turn bad. 

Luo Yan was about to go out of his room to go to the dining room since it's almost time for dinner when he thought of checking his phone. Then he saw that he had some unread messages from WeChat. Based on the time stamp, it was sent a few hours ago. The messages were also sent by one person – Shen Ji Yun.

He quickly opened it.

[luckycloud]: Yan Yan, sorry I hung up too abruptly earlier. It was almost time for my class so I hurriedly hung up without thinking. I'm sorry. I hope you didn't get mad.] 

Then it was followed by a rabbit sticker kneeling down.

Luo Yan smirked when he read the message. [Time for class, yeah right. You're probably just being a big vinegar jar again.]

He continued to read the messages.

[luckycloud]: Yan Yan, you're not mad, right? 

[luckycloud]: Yan Yan, please reply.

Followed by a crying rabbit sticker.

[luckycloud]: You're probably busy. I'm sorry for pestering you. Just ignore this message.

Then that was followed by a teary-eyes rabbit sticker.

Luo Yan finally couldn't help but laugh. Seriously, this guy. His way of messaging was so far off from his high-cold image that if an acquaintance of his read this now, they would never associate it with him. But it's adorable in its own way. Almost as if it was his inner self speaking.

He then typed his reply.

[YanYan1213]: I'm not mad, Brother Ji Yun. Why would I be? I was just playing Arcadia that's why I didn't manage to reply immediately to your message. 

When he didn't receive an immediate reply, he knew that the other was probably busy. He was most probably playing Arcadia. Because if he's not busy, he would definitely reply back to him within a few seconds. 

He put back his phone on his study table and walked out of the room. 

When dinnertime came, only the three brothers were sitting on the dining room. Luo Wei Tian was still on a business trip and would only return tomorrow evening at the latest. 

"What time did Yu Jiao went back?" Luo Ren thought of asking, because when he left for work this morning, the teenager was still here.

"Just after nine," Luo Yan answered while eating a piece of spring roll.

"So early? She should have stayed for lunch," Luo Ren said.

Luo Jin put down his chopsticks and looked seriously at his eldest brother. "Brother, tell me honestly, do you like Yu Jiao?"

Luo Ren choked on the piece of chicken he just ate because of Luo Jin's question. He was coughing so hard, he felt like he was almost out of breath. 

"Brother!" Luo Yan exclaimed. 

He quickly stood up and patted Luo Ren's back as strong as he could. But it seemed that the force wasn���t enough because he continued on coughing. 

Luo Yan glared at Luo Jin who looked dumbstruck. "What are you still sitting there for? Help!"  

Luo Jin seemed to just realize the severity of the situation. He quickly got up, walked behind Luo Ren and held him up. He put his arms around his waist and bend him forward. Then he performed five abdominal thrust. Quickly after that, the piece of chicken that was stuck in Luo Ren's throat flew out and landed on the floor. 

"Brother, drink this," Luo Yan said, giving a glass of warm water to his older brother.

Luo Ren accepted the glass of water. "Thank you, Yan Yan." Then he glanced back coldly at Luo Jin. "You can let go of me now."

Luo Jin felt goosebumps all over because of that glance. He could feel from that glance that his eldest brother was very, very angry. He quickly let go of his brother's waist. Then moved back a few steps. 

"I'm sorry, Brother!" he said before Luo Ren could speak. It's better for him to apologize now before he could be scolded.

Luo Ren drank the warm water that Luo Yan gave him to clear his throat before looking at Luo Jin. "What are you sorry for?"

"I- I'm sorry for asking if you like Yu Jiao. I didn't know it would make you choke."

Luo Ren felt like a vein in his forehead just popped. This brat. It was obvious that he wasn't the least bit guilty for what happened. He looked at that piece of chicken on the floor. He could feel his blood pressure rising. He had never embarrassed himself like this before. Thinking of what he just experienced, he looked at Luo Jin with a much colder gaze.

Luo Jin felt like his brother was close to strangling him. He could already feel his neck hurting. "I- I think I'm already full. I'm going to sleep now."

Then he ran up to the second floor as if someone was after his life.

Seeing Luo Jin escape like that, Luo Yan finally couldn't help himself and let out a laugh.

Luo Ren glanced at him. "Oh, so Yan Yan thinks that what happened was funny?"

"Sorry, Brother. But you know it was," Luo Yan answered, not hiding his smile. 

Luo Ren let out a deep sigh. Yes, it was indeed funny. But he would have liked it more if he didn't almost die from choking. "I could have died, you know."

"Brother, that won't be possible. Both me and Ah Jin are here. We wouldn't let that happen," Luo Yan said seriously. "Maybe what Brother should think more is why you reacted so violently just because of one simple question," he added meaningfully. 

Then he sat back on his seat and continued eating.

Luo Ren also sat back on his seat. But because of what Luo Yan said, his mind was not on eating anymore. Yes, why did he react so violently just because of that question?
