The Return of the God Level Assassin Chapter 997: AFTER THE FIRST WIN

A popping sound echoed around the main hall of team Yunyue's headquarters as Bai Ze opened a bottle of champagne. "Congratulations to us for winning our first qualifying ga!"

And then he proceeded to pour drinks on the champagne glasses held by his teammates, including Eclipse, Dusk, and Rowan. Although Luo Jin was still not in the legal age to drink, it's fine since this was inside virtual reality and he wasn't really consuming alcohol.

"Cheers!" Bai Ze said, raising his glass and drinking the content in one gulped.

The others also took a sip of their champagne. Luo Jin, especially, also drank it in one gulp. It would take more than a year before he was allowed to drink any alcohol. So, he should take this chance to drink as much as he could.

Luo Yan blinked and then looked at the glass of champagne that's sparkling inside the glass. This was the first ti he had drink sothing like this. It's because the only alcoholic drink he could afford in his last life was a cheap beer.

"This taste good, Brother Ze," he couldn't help but complint.

"Yes, it's like there are bubbles inside Eclipse's mouth!" Eclipse quickly seconded.

Bai Ze raised his chin, feeling proud. "Of course. This is the most expensive champagne in all of Arcadia."

Su Yuqi raised her brow. "Aren't you overcompensating?"

Bai Ze glanced at the other. He already knew what this girl was trying to say, but he still responded in a dry tone, "And why should I overcompensate?"

"Because you're the only one who didn't capture a watchtower."

"And? I still defeated the other team's Captain," Bai Ze said, boasting about his feat.

Su Yuqi only gave an 'evil' smirk. "Did defeating the other team's captain help our team gain points?"

Bai Ze felt choked because he couldn't find any words to refute that. So, he could only pour himself another glance of champagne while glaring at the evil woman smiling evilly at him.

"The big lion is so pitiful," Eclipse whispered to Luo Yan. "He always lost against pink sister."

Luo Yan smiled and whispered back, "That's just their way of getting along."

Shen Ji Yun clapped to stop any more bickering between the two. "Okay, let's just eat and celebrate."

After he said that, the round table was filled with different dishes. Although everything was virtual, the taste of each dish was very authentic. And that's all that mattered.

"Finally, food," Rowan grumbled, as if he was relieved that the 'nonsensical' conversation was finally over.

Everyone started eating, enjoying the delicious dishes on the table. Except for Bai Ze, who was still sulking.

Luo Yan walked towards the other with a plate of different food. "Brother Ze, here, eat."

Bai Ze reluctantly accepted the plate. "Xiao Yan, do you also think that I didn't contribute to our win today?"

"Of course not. If Brother Ze didn't defeat the captain of team Valor, I wouldn't be able to give the bandit leader that finishing blow as quickly as I did."

And Luo Yan was not saying that to make his cousin feel better. He knew that those two team mbers must have contacted their other team mbers once they found the bandit leader.

The fact that one of them resorted to exploding himself just to give the bandit leader a huge blow ant that their team captain, by that ti, was already out of the match. This, of course, gave Luo Yan the opportunity to defeat the bandit leader.

"Xiao Yan..." Bai Ze looked at him with a moved expression. "I knew there's a reason you're my favorite cousin. Co here and give this big brother a hug."

Luo Yan chuckled and was planning to give the other a quick hug. But before he could do so, he was suddenly hugged from behind. He looked up and saw Shen Ji Yun.

"Go and find soone else to hug you," Shen Ji Yun said.

"Hey, Ji Yun, aren't you being a bit possessive? I'm Xiao Yan's cousin. Don't tell you still view as an object of jealousy?" Bai Ze said incredulously.

Shen Ji Yun only frowned and did not answer. But by doing that, it's almost as if he was admitting that what Bai Ze said was true.

"Wow. I don't know if I should be shocked or be worried about my cousin's future."

After Bai Ze said that, Shen Ji Yun's frown beca even deeper. Then he looked at Luo Yan and asked in an unsure manner, "Yan Yan, am I doing sothing wrong?"

While staring at Shen Ji Yun, Luo Yan suddenly had the illusion that the other suddenly turned into a nervous puppy who was feeling guilty towards its owner, with matching drooping ears and tail. So, what could he do in this situation?

He turned around and hugged the other's waist. "Of course not. We're just at the start of our relationship. So, it's natural to feel possessive."

And even if it continued in the future, he had the confidence that the other wouldn't show excessive possessiveness as long as he told him not to. Because Shen Ji Yun wouldn't do anything that would make him uncomfortable.

That might sound a bit egotistical of him. But that's just how much faith he had of Shen Ji Yun's love for him. Yes, they might quarrel from ti to ti, but the other would never intentionally do sothing that might hurt him or cause him discomfort. This was how much trust he had for Shen Ji Yun.

Contrary to his thoughts, Shen Ji Yun was thinking that even if they were no longer on this 'fresh stage' of their relationship, he would probably still continue to be a jealous boyfriend. But now, he learned that he should not show it so thoroughly so as not to make Luo Yan uncomfortable.

"Argh... stop with this force feeding of dog food," Bai Ze complained. "Now I've lost my appetite because of you two."

Luo Yan only laughed at that.

And the next day, it was finally ti for Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun's temple date.
