The Return of the God Level Assassin Chapter 870: IT'S ALL WORTH IT

LUO JIN frowned while staring at Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun. He didn't know if it was only his imagination but he felt like there were too much pink bubbles around the two, at least more than normal.

He started to notice it during breakfast earlier. Even though the two weren't sitting side by side, the way they were looking at each other, it's almost as if honey would drip between their gazes. The frustrating thing was, it felt like he was the only one who noticed it.

Now, that they were back at the orphanage and it was the sa. Even though the two weren't particularly sticky towards each other, the way they gaze at each other was sticky enough.

The frown on his face beca even deeper when he saw the two exchanged glances again. They were far apart, his brother playing with the kids and making a snowman while Shen Ji Yun was helping shove the snow out of the driveway alongside him and Luo Ren. And yet, despite the distance, the two still managed to glance at one another.

Every ti their gazes would collide, Luo Yan would smile and then Shen Ji Yun would blush. This was already the nth ti that it had happened. And it was really getting on his nerves.

He narrowed his eyes at Shen Ji Yun and finally couldn't help but asked, "Hey, Shen Ji Yun, did sothing happen between you and Yan?"

Shen Ji Yun almost accidentally let go of the shovel he's holding when he heard that question. He suddenly wondered if he was being obvious with his feelings once again. He had already learned last night that he was not exactly that good when it ca to hiding his feelings for Luo Yan.

It was a huge surprise for him. After all, he's soone who's known for not being able to express his emotions since he was a kid. And yet, for so reason, when it ca to his feelings for Luo Yan, it's probably plastered all over his face.

It probably wouldn't be weird even if this guy Luo Jin noticed that sothing had changed in the dynamics of his relationship with Luo Yan. Now, the question was, how would he answer?

But before he could, Luo Ren had spoken up first. "Just let them be, Xiao Jin."

"But Brother--! Can't you see they're acting really, really suspicious? Don't you want to know why?" Luo Jin complained.

Luo Ren, of course, had noticed that. It would be a lie if he said that he wasn't curious about this sudden change. Honestly, he already had an idea on why Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun were acting like this. If his guest was correct, he's afraid that he might beat up this guy. So, it's better if he didn't know the grisly detail.

But that didn't an that he was okay about it. In fact, just thinking of the possibility that his brother was in a relationship with this bast- this Shen Ji Yun could already make his blood boil. But, at the end of the day, Luo Yan was the one who made this decision. The only thing he could do was to respect that.

Besides, his brother was not the type to be forced into such a situation. Among the three of them, Luo Jin was more likely to get in a situation like that than either of them. He still didn't like it though.

So, he turned to Shen Ji Yun and smiled. It was the kind of smile that expressed a lot of things. Like, 'don't you dare hurt my brother or I will kill you' kind of thing.

And Shen Ji Yun received the aning of that smile loud and clear. How could he not when the mont he saw it, he readily felt a chill down his spine?

Despite the cold weather, he could literally feel sweat on his forehead. Because of that, he suddenly rembered a part of the conversation he had with Luo Yan last night.

=====

"How should we tell your dad and brothers?" Shen Ji Yun asked. "If- if you're worried, I can do everything myself. I'll tell them that it was all on ."

The two of them were sitting on the long couch. His arm was around Luo Yan's shoulders and the other was leaning his whole weight on him.

Luo Yan raised his head at him, he was looking at him as if he just said sothing funny. "Well, if you want us to reenact 'Roo and Juliet', sure we can tell them tomorrow."

Shen Ji Yun was already familiar with the other's teasing expression. But despite the other teasing, he knew that there was a semblance of truth to what he said.

"Then, are we going to hide our relationship to them?"

"I appreciate that you want to be responsible and all that, but let's not torture ourselves unnecessarily," Luo Yan said. "We can probably tell my brothers now, but definitely not my dad. He would definitely freak out and he might even beat you up. Or worse, not let play Arcadia so we wouldn't et."

Shen Ji Yun understood that and yet he still felt a tad bit guilty for concealing their relationship to Uncle Tian.

Luo Yan, seemingly aware of what he's thinking, added, "We will tell Dad soday, don't worry. Just let ready him first. So, when we revealed our relationship, it wouldn't give him a heart attack. Okay?"

=====

Looking at Luo Ren, it was just now that Shen Ji Yun truly understood Luo Yan's decision. If Luo Ren was already giving him this look despite not knowing about his and Luo Yan's relationship yet, he couldn't imagine Uncle Tian's reaction once it was revealed.

Really, he would be lucky if he only received a beating.

He glanced once again at Luo Yan. The other also happened to look at his direction. His rabbit smiled and gave him a small wave.

It didn't matter if he was beaten. For that smile, he wouldn't even mind if he's tortured.

Because it's all worth it.
