Chapter 475 - I ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER (2/2)

”So, did Brother enjoy his date with Jiao Jiao?”

Luo Ren choked on the piece of cookie that he just ate because of that question.  He coughed non-stop.  He quickly picked the glass of orange juice in front of Luo Yan and drank it.  When that piece of cookie successfully went down his throat, he soon finally stopped coughing.

Because of that, he suddenly remembered that time when he choked on that piece of chicken.  That time, it was also because of Luo Yan's sudden question.

”You- do you seriously want me to choke to death?”

”Tee-hee,” Luo Yan said, acting all cutesy.

Luo Ren pinched both of his cheeks.  ”Don't 'tee-hee' me.”

”But I have no control over what surprised Brother,” Luo Yan complaint while rubbing both pinched cheeks.  ”How do I know that you would be too sensitive when it comes to topic about Jiao Jiao?”

Luo Ren was speechless for a bit.  Then he scratched his nose before taking a deep breath and saying, ”To answer your question earlier – yes, I had fun spending time with Jiao Jiao.”

Luo Yan smiled full of teasing.  ”And?”

”And I don't consider that a date,” Luo Ren said.  ”A date is something that both parties are aware of.  It wouldn't matter if only one knew about it.  That's not a date, that's simply being delusional.”

Hearing that, Luo Yan suddenly imagined Shen Ji Yun for some reason.  Because during that time they went to Tropical Land, he could feel how considered that as a 'date'.  It was really easy for him to read his expressions.  Maybe because Shen Ji Yun showed more emotions whenever the two of them were together.  That's why it was easy for him to tell what the other was thinking.

What his brother said just now was like a jab at Shen Ji Yun.  If he didn't know any better, he might think that Luo Ren was dissing the other.  But still, he felt a need to defend Shen Ji Yun.  Even if he knew that the 'delusional' comment was not pertaining to him.

”I wouldn't call it delusional if the other party who was supposed to be 'unaware' actually knew about it and they chose not to tell it to the one who was secretly thinking that the two of them were in a date.”

”That explanation is kind of a mouthful,” Luo Ren commented though he still understood his brother's point.  ”But why would the 'unaware' party not tell the other that he knew about it?”

”Maybe because they find it cute, seeing the other blush and scurry about so they wouldn't know that they were on a 'date'.”

Luo Ren only gave Luo Yan a glance.  ”I don't think Jiao Jiao has that kind of 'sadistic' personality.”

Luo Yan laughed.  ”True,” he agreed.  ”So, Brother, do you like Jiao Jiao?  And I mean that in a romantic way.”

Luo Ren was suddenly hit by such a curveball that he became speechless for a second.  Then he smiled, the arch of his lips full of meaning.  ”What do you think?”

”Hey, no fair.  Brother should answer my question.”

”I don't think there's a rule saying that I should always answer your question straightforwardly,” Luo Ren said.  ”But if you tell me a secret equivalent to your question, maybe I would answer it.”

Luo Yan tilted his head.  A secret equivalent to his question?  He stopped.  Because the only thing he could think of was his feelings for Shen Ji Yun.  Surely, his brother was not asking about that.  Right?

He crossed his arms.  ”Never mind.  I think I already know the answer anyway.”

Luo Ren didn't ask what he thought and just ruffled his hair.  ”Yes, yes, our Yan Yan is the smartest.”
