The Return Of The God Level Assassin

Chapter 867: THATʼS WHEN HIS TEARS FELL

”WHAT is it, Brother Ji Yun?” Luo Yan asked.

”Ahm, I- I just made a game. Can you test it and let me know if thereʼs anything I can improve on?” Shen Ji Yun said, his hands clenched tightly as his side.

Luo Yan immediately felt excited when he heard that. ”Of course! Iʼll be more than happy to. Is it a PC game?”

He was actually very surprised to hear that the other made a game. But if one considered Shen Ji Yunʼs major, itʼs really not that surprising. Still, Luo Yan was excited to play whatever game the other had made. Itʼs definitely going to be interesting.

”No. Itʼs a mobile game. I- I can send you the App now. If itʼs okay with you.”

”Sure.”

Luo Yan took out his phone and Shen Ji Yun did the same. A few seconds later, an App appeared on his phone. He read the name of the game, [Love Guide]. That actually made him raise a brow. Whatʼs this? Did Shen Ji Yun make an otome game or something? You know, one of those dating sims and the likes.

So, he just directly asked, ”Is this an otome game, Brother Ji Yun?”

The other blushed and then gazed away to hide his embarrassment. ”Youʼll know once you try it.”

”Okay,” Luo Yan said. ”Iʼll play it now.”

”No, wait--!” Shen Ji Yun stopped him. ”Ahm, can you wait for 30 minutes before you play it?”

Now, Luo Yanʼs interest was thoroughly piqued. He wanted to ask ʼwhyʼ but he held himself back. This was Shen Ji Yun heʼs talking about. The other was probably preparing for some kind of surprise thatʼs why he asked him to wait. Itʼs most likely an extension of his birthday gift to him. Although heʼs just making guesses, one thing was still for sure. That this [Love Guide] game played an integral part to it.

And since he loved surprises, he said with no questions asked; ”Okay, I promise.”

Shen Yi Mu was leaning on the wall. He had already lost track of time. He didnʼt even dare check it because he didnʼt want to know just how many hours heʼd been waiting here. His stomach had been complaining of hunger. But he couldnʼt even feel it. He couldnʼt even feel the dizziness that should have come with it.

He could have left and just come back later the moment he found out that there was no one in the room. But he didnʼt. What if Ah Yue returned later the moment he did? Then they would miss each other. Or worse, what if Jiang Yue was actually inside and just didnʼt want to open the door because he didnʼt want to meet him? Then, all the more reason for him to wait here.

Because that would show Jiang Yue his determination. It didnʼt matter if he had to wait until morning. He would wait no matter how long.

Thatʼs when he heard that familiar soft voice. ”Brother Mu?”

Shen Yi Mu turned to the direction of the voice. The moment he saw the man standing just a few steps away from him, he felt his heart jumped to his throat. It was beating so hard and so fast that it almost hurt.

He couldnʼt say anything. He could only stare at the other. Although he couldnʼt see his features clearly because of the thick glasses heʼs wearing, it didnʼt matter. For him, the other was still as beautiful as he remembered him.

”Ah Yue...”

Jiang Yue was nailed on the spot. Just like Shen Yi Mu, he could only stare. The years didnʼt really change the otherʼs appearance that much. In fact, he became even more handsome. Or maybe that was just the filter in his eyes talking. Because of that, he could actually feel his own heart beating profusely.

Maybe he would even have a heart attack any second now.

He didnʼt know exactly how to feel as the two of them stood in front of each other like this. Somehow, he had already expected that something like this would happen. His meeting with Shen Ji Yun guaranteed that. Especially since the other blatantly admitted that he would tell Shen Yi Mu that he saw him here at S City.

Jiang Yue could have run, really. He had all the time in the world to do that. But at the end, he didnʼt. Maybe it was because of the ʼadviceʼ Shen Ji Yun gave him. One thing the other said truly hit him hard. That for one to achieve a semblance of happiness, they should have at least some courage.

That really hit home. Maybe because his life now was a perfect reflection of that. Because of his lacking courage, he couldnʼt be happy.

Thatʼs why he didnʼt run. But he was still afraid of meeting Shen Yi Mu again. So, he ended up spending the whole day outside. Just walking around and thinking of things. By the time he returned, it was already eight in the evening.

He didnʼt expect that a surprise would be waiting for him the moment he got out of the elevator.

Now Shen Yi Mu was standing right in front of him and he didnʼt know what to do next. Should he apologize? Should he quickly explain what happened back then?

Jiang Yue opened his mouth but no words came out. He felt shortness of breath. Itʼs like he was slowly suffocating. If one would remove his glasses right now, they would see the corner of his eyes reddened. As if he was ready to cry at any second.

He wanted to say a lot of things. But at this moment, his brain couldnʼt form any coherent thoughts. So, all he could do was to stand there and stare at the man he loved more than anyone in the world.

Thatʼs when the other suddenly rushed towards him. Before he could react, he was already engulfed inside a pair of warm strong arms.

”I miss you, Ah Yue. So, so much.”

And Jiang Yueʼs tears truly fell at that moment.
