Chapter 91 - WECHAT ID: GET! (1/2)

”SORRY, I wasn't able to reply to you immediately.  I went with my uncle two weeks ago to country M.  We just got back yesterday,” Shen Ji Yun explained.

Country M?  If Luo Yan remembered correctly, Arcadia was still not operational in other countries aside from theirs.  He probably just read his message today.  Although in his opinion, there's really no need to explain anything to him.  It's not as if not receiving a respond would hurt his feelings or something.

”Did you and your uncle went for a vacation?” he just asked perfunctorily.

”No.  We went there for a gaming convention.”

Luo Yan's eyes suddenly brightened when he heard that.  ”A gaming convention?  Did you meet a lot of game developers?  Were there any exhibitions of new products from various gaming companies?”

Shen Ji Yun stared at Luo Yan's beautiful face.  His big blue eyes surrounded by long white eyelashes were filled with excitement.  If this was his real face, Luo Yan would look much more immature than his game avatar, but it would definitely be much cuter.  Just thinking of those big peach blossom eyes staring at him with excitement, Shen Ji Yun's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He coughed to hide his embarrassing thoughts.  What was he thinking?  And what's with that skipping a beat nonsense?  It's definitely just his imagination.  But no matter how much he told himself that, he knew that it was definitely not just his imagination.

It seemed like ever since he met this rabbit – yes, he would no longer stop himself from calling Luo Yan 'rabbit' from time to time, it's all in his head anyway, it's not as if he would hear it – he would sometimes feel weird.  Like thinking about how cute Luo Yan was or that his face would suddenly heat up whenever the rabbit would compliment him.  And now, just staring at the rabbit's face could make his heart skip a beat.

Could it be he not only wanted him to be a friend but he also wanted him to be his… younger brother?

Remembering how that gnome behaved around Luo Yan, maybe that was really the case.  He lived for 20 years and this was the first time he actually had an urge to have a sibling.  Even those cousins of his didn't give him this kind of feeling.  But if he thought carefully about it, how could those sc.u.m cousins of his even compare to Luo Yan?  The rabbit was so cute.  Just looking at him, one would immediately feel good.  Those cousins would definitely be not on the same level as the rabbit's small toe.

Of course, these messy thoughts didn't show on Shen Ji Yun's expressionless cold face.

”Yes.  There were a few renowned game developers who attended.  There were also a lot of new games and game consoles being exhibited,” he answered to the rabbit's question.  When he noticed that Luo Yan's eyes became even brighter, he added, ”Are you interested in these things?”

”Yes!” Luo Yan didn't hesitate to answer.

This was the reason why he picked a computer science major in his last life.  Playing the PC version of Arcadia, he was attracted to the gaming industry and he really wanted to work and belong in that environment.  He already made a lot of compromise in the early part of his life, he certainly wouldn't do the same when it came to his dream.  How could he let himself be trapped in a job where he would just be unhappy all his life?  So he didn't hesitate to choose computer science when he got to university.

Now that he had a new life, he would still choose computer science as a major.  He even planned to study again at his old Alma Mater.  That would be next year.  Considering how fast time flew by, it definitely wouldn't be that long.

”I actually planned to study computer science once I entered university next year,” he added.

Shen Ji Yun almost forgot that Luo Yan was already 17.  When thinking of the rabbit's petite stature, he couldn't help but think that he was only 14.  But when he heard that he wanted to take up computer science, he felt some kind of unexplainable joy.  Because that was also his current major.  It almost felt like fate.  Making him feel much closer to Luo Yan.

”I'm taking up computer science right now,” he said.  ”My university's computer science department is one of the best in the country.  Maybe you should try to apply there.”
