Chapter 162 - MEETING AT GOLDCREST CITY (1/2)

LUO YAN appeared at the plaza of Goldcrest City, Luo Jin appearing just a few seconds after.  He glanced down at his younger brother, there was an obvious frown on his face.  Luo Yan helplessly smiled.  Because he knew it was because they were to meet with Shen Ji Yun here.

It had been a month since they joined Yunyue and yet Luo Jin was still ever so vigilant against Shen Ji Yun.  Luo Yan no longer tried to convince him not to behave like that.  Because he knew it wouldn't have any effect whatsoever.  He'd just let time prove him otherwise.

The morning sun was shining brightly on the city.  Today was Saturday.  That's why the two of them were able to be here this early.  This weekend also signaled the end of his first week at school.

Luo Yan's first week was almost uneventful.  Everyone in his class was nice to him.  Overly nice, in fact.  It's like every time some of his classmates looked at him, he had a feeling that they were just restraining themselves from attacking him.  And by 'attacking' he meant pinching his cheeks or hugging him.  If he as so showed any indication that he would be alright with it, those classmates of his probably wouldn't hesitate any longer and just flung themselves at him.

The only one who had been openly antagonistic towards him was Huang Wen.  But even he stopped with the snide remarks after Luo Yan consecutively answered some of the teachers' questions correctly.  With that, Huang Wen could no longer use the excuse that Luo Yan only managed to get into the school because of his family's money.

He glanced around and noticed that some players were staring in their direction.  He had already pulled the rib of his shirt to cover the lower half of his face.  This way, he wouldn't gather too much attention.  He's going to do some serious business today.  He didn't want to be ogled while he's doing that.  But even so, it seemed like his white hair was still quite the attraction.  Not to mention, Luo Jin's special gnome class.

”When is that guy coming here?” Luo Jin said impatiently.  His tone was like he'd been waiting for hours.  When in fact, they had only been here for about a minute.

Luo Yan was about to answer him when he felt someone suddenly stood beside him.  He looked up and saw a tall male player wearing all black with the lower half of his face also covered but the one thing most people would notice about him first were his pair of piercing blue eyes.

”Brother Ji Yun,” he smiled and greeted the person who just stood beside him.

He wasn't surprised to see him arriving in his alt account's game avatar.  After all, they would be walking around the city.  If he came here in his real avatar, other players would surely flock them.

”Sorry, I'm late.  Did you wait too long?” Shen Ji Yun apologized.

”Yes, we've been waiting for hours,” Luo Jin said in a way as if they were really waiting there for hours.

”No, we've only been here for like a minute,” Luo Yan immediately corrected.

Shen Ji Yun didn't mind what the gnome said because he'd already been used to ignoring him.  What he said usually just enter one ear and exit on the other.

”Is it really alright for Brother Ji Yun to accompany us today?  You don't have any lecture you need to attend?” Luo Yan continued.  It's actually one of the reasons he was hesitating to let Shen Ji Yun accompany them today.  After all, the guy was already a university student.  He should be busier than them.
