Chapter 64 - WILL LUO YAN REALLY BE ALRIGHT? (1/2)
LUO YAN looked at the time and saw that it was almost time for dinner. Luo Jin said that he would only log off for a bit but he didn't return after this long. He wondered what could have happened.
”Brother Ji Yun,” he called and then cringed a little bit inside. Seriously, calling this guy 'brother' was just a bit weird for him. After all, technically, he's older than him. But because he had to act cute and pitiful when they first met, he didn't hesitate to call him 'brother'. Changing the way he call him now would be a bit weird. He'd just bear with it. ”I have to log out now. Thank you for the meal. How much was it? I'll pay for half.”
”No need.”
He looked like his decision couldn't be changed, so Luo Yan could only say; ”Then let me buy a meal for you next time.”
Shen Ji Yun was thinking of rejecting him because he's not really that fond of VR food. No matter how good it tasted, it still lacked something. A certain satisfaction that you could only get by eating real food. Maybe he's just being too sensitive because he knew how to cook.
But before he could reject him, he suddenly thought that it was actually a good excuse for them to meet again. So at the end, he could only say, ”Um.”
”I'll go now then.”
”Wait-” he said when Luo Yan stood up. The rabbit turned to him, his big peach blossom eyes full of curiosity as to why he stopped him. ”If you encounter anything in the game that you don't understand or just something you find weird, just message me. I'll try to answer it as best as I could for you.”
”But wouldn't that be too much of a bother?”
”It won't.”
Luo Yan looked at Shen Ji Yun's seemingly cold appearance, but despite that, he's actually saying something quite heartwarming. Could it be that he's the type that's cold on the outside but very warm on the inside? Wait- wouldn't that make him one of those? What was that term again? That term otakus used to describe that type of character. Muu- juu- ah! Kuudere! He must be that, right?
Luo Yan couldn't help but chuckle thinking of that possibility. ”Then I'll take Brother Ji Yun at your word.” The other just seriously nodded which highly amused him. ”I'll go now. Bye-bye!” he said and gave a little wave.
As he walked out of the private box, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't yet input Mana to that egg today. He'd just do it before he logged out.
Shen Ji Yun looked at the closed door of the box and sighed. He actually wanted to ask if he and the rabbit could be friends. But somehow, he couldn't find the right timing to do so. Or maybe he just simply sucked at this 'asking to be friends' thing. Because he had never done something like this before.
He and Bai Ze became friends because of the other's unrelenting efforts. Or rather, it's because Bai Ze just enjoyed meddling with him. As time went by, he simply got used to his presence. The same could be said for Yuqi and the other two members of their team.
Should he just ask Bai Ze for advice then? He let out a long sigh. He could already feel a headache just thinking about it.

Luo Yan went out of his room. He just walked for a bit and he immediately saw Luo Jin. It looked like he just came down from his room.
