Chapter 417 - LUO YAN AND SHEN YI MU (2/2)

”We met at F University. When Uncle went as a speaker for the graduating class,” Shen Ji Yun answered.

Shen Yi Mu didn't expect that answer. He did remember Ji Yun going off somewhere before he began his speech. Did the two met then? Wait- if that was the case, then did that mean that Luo Yan was a college student? He laughed inwardly at his own conjecture. No, he might just be visiting some relative there.

”You're not a college student, right, Xiao Yan?” he still asked but his tone had a bit of teasing in them.

”No. I'm still in high school. Though I'll be in college next year,” Luo Yan answered.

Shen Yi Mu wasn't sure if he heard that right. He looked at the boy, staring at him from head to foot. He couldn't really see that the other was already 17 or 18.

”Uncle, gawking like that is rude,” Shen Ji Yun said reminding him of his behavior.

”Ah, yes, sorry Xiao Yan, for staring.”

”It's alright, Uncle Yi Mu, I get that reaction a lot,” Luo Yan said. ”But don't worry. I may be a little short now, but I'll definitely grow taller. As a matter of fact, I just grew 2 cm more in a span of almost two weeks. I can feel that my growth spurt is nearing!”

Boys usually had their growth spurt between 12 to 16 years of age. If he was in his last year of high school, then he already passed the right age. But looking at the determination in those big black eyes, Shen Yi Mu couldn't bear to tell him otherwise. So, he could only say;

”Xiao Yan would definitely just grow taller and taller.”

Luo Yan smiled sweetly when he heard that. ”I'm really looking forward to it. You see, Uncle, my brothers are all tall. Maybe I could grow to 180 cm.”

”I'm sure you would,” Shen Yi Mu said. Then he tactically changed the subject. ”Did the two of you remain in contact since you met at F University?”

”Well, Brother Ji Yun and I met again in Arcadia. Then we became friends since,” Luo Yan said. ”It also happened that he's actually friends with my older cousin, Brother Ze. After finding that out, my brother and I joined their team.”

Shen Yi Mu was a bit surprised hearing what Luo Yan said. ”That's a lot of coincidence,” he commented. ”Does that mean that you two also coincidentally met here in Chengdu?” he asked with a bit of teasing tone.

Because it's now quite obvious that Luo Yan was not a local. If they met at F University, there's a high chance that he's from S City.

”No, I actually asked Uncle to go here because I knew that Yan Yan and his family would go here for vacation,” Shen Ji Yun said honestly.

Both Luo Yan and Shen Yi Mu turned sharply to his direction.
