Chapter 470 - YU JIAOS WORKSHOP (2/2)
Yu Jiao felt like something kicked in her chest when she saw that smile. She couldn't help but think, 'ah, Mr. Luo is really handsome'. She was startled by that thought and quickly looked down. Hiding her fl.u.s.tered expression from the other.
It was a good thing that the elevator had stopped. That way, she no longer had to think too much about that momentary gaffe.
”H-here we are,” she said after walking out of the elevator.
As Luo Ren stepped out of the elevator, he looked around the place. It just had the right dimness, not too bright nor not to dark either. There was a large glass cabinet filled with materials, a work table, and some kind of stone slab that had runes engraved on it.
The place was very clean and organized just like the office on the second floor. He was actually expecting some kind of hot and humid area with a lot of metal forge. So, seeing a place that was the opposite of that, it did surprise him a bit.
Yu Jiao probably saw his confusion, that's why she said next, ”Ahm, forging and crafting items in this game are not exactly the same as that of real life.” She walked towards a stone slab with runes engraved on it. ”All I need is this crafting table, the right materials, and the design of my making. Then I could make anything.”
Luo Ren was not exactly sure how things worked. But it's enough to see Yu Jiao being excited explaining things to him. She even stopped stuttering, showing just how much she liked this topic. So, he just listened and let her explain.
”If Mr. Luo wants any weapon or accessories, I can design and make one for you,” Yu Jiao said after she finished explaining.
There it was again, that 'Mr. Luo'.
”Actually, there is one thing I want to request of you. I hope Jiao Jiao wouldn't refuse. Don't worry, it's not something that's impossible to do.”
”Okay, what is it?” Yu Jiao asked, she was confident that she could make anything that Luo Ren might request.
Luo Ren faced Yu Jiao. ”I want Jiao Jiao to call me 'Brother Ren'. If that's not possible, then Luo Ren is also fine. As long as it's not 'Mr. Luo'. You see, I feel a bit old whenever you call me that. It's like I'm the same age as my father or something when I'm only about five years older than you.”
He added that last bit in a teasing tone, so as to not make Yu Jiao feel awkward.
Yu Jiao was surprised hearing that. So, did that mean that every time she called Luo Ren 'Mr. Luo', he felt uncomfortable? No wonder he teased her earlier about calling him 'Brother Ren'. He probably wasn't just teasing her. He truly just didn't want her to keep calling him 'Mr. Luo'.
She felt a bit guilty. It's because she's too awkward and careless that she didn't even notice that.
”I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable.”
”Hey, I didn't say that to make you feel guilty or anything,” Luo Ren quickly said. ”I just want Jiao Jiao to call me by my name.”
It's really not that hard of a request. Besides, Yu Jiao needed to make up for the discomfort she had caused him. She took a deep breath and called softly;
”Brother Ren.”
