Chapter 313 - WHAT SHE DESERVED (2/2)
”Should we order food?” Luo Yan asked.
”No, there's no need. Let's just talk about the weapons of the both of you. From what Yan Yan said to me yesterday, both of you are using dual-wield weapons. Daggers and guns. Can you tell me if you have any particular design in mind for your weapons?” Yu Jiao asked, getting straight to the point.
”Ah Jin, go ahead, you can go first,” Luo Yan said to his younger brother.
Luo Jin glanced at Yu Jiao. He still felt a bit uncomfortable thinking of the possibility that his eldest brother actually liked Yu Jiao. Not that he was discriminating against her. For sure, she was too timid and shy for her own good. But she's certainly a whole lot better in comparison to most girls. He just couldn't get used to the idea that his eldest brother could be interested in a girl.
His adorable little face scrunched up a bit. Then he answered, ”You can do any design you want. Just don't make it too tacky. A simple design should do. But I also want them to make me look cool.”
That last part almost made Luo Yan laugh. That just showed that he was still a teenage boy.
”Okay, I'll take a note of that,” Yu Jiao said. Then she turned to Luo Yan. ”How about you, Yan Yan?”
”I trust Yu Jiao's judgement. So, I'll leave the design to you,” Luo Yan said.
Yu Jiao felt a bit shy hearing that. ”Don't worry, I'll do my best to make the best weapon for the both of you.”
”And I have no doubt about that,” Luo Yan said. ”Jiao Jiao is so talented, after all. Don't you think so too, Ah Jin?”
Luo Jin frowned, wondering why Luo Yan had to include him in their conversation. He really didn't want to answer. But then he felt his shin being kicked under the table. It's not a hard kick, just enough to get his attention. He raised his head and looked at his second brother.
Luo Yan was smiling at him. But it was not one of his real smiles nor one of those excruciatingly sweet smiles. It's one of his threatening smiles. The one he used when he wanted to threaten someone but still wanted to appear all harmless.
So, Luo Jin quickly understood that the other wanted him to praise Yu Jiao. Seriously, why was he the only one in the family who had to suffer this black version of Luo Yan. Sometimes, he wished that their father and older brother could experience it too.
But despite complaining, he still cooperated. ”Yes, I believe Yu Jiao could make us the best weapon.”
”T-thank you,” Yu Jiao said shyly.
Luo Yan smiled. He probably couldn't help his older brother in wooing Yu Jiao, if ever he decided on doing so. After all, no matter how many times he praised Luo Ren in front of Yu Jiao, it wouldn't matter at all if she couldn't believe his feelings for him. But he certainly could help his friend to lift up her self-esteem.
Because such an amazing and kind girl deserved to be more confident about herself. And he's willing to provide support until Yu Jiao realized that.
