The Return Of The God Level Assassin

Chapter 1004  STAYING OVER

”AUNTIE, I might not be able to go back tonight,” Luo Yan said in an apologetic tone to Aunt Xiulan in the other end of the line. ”I was so engrossed with Brother Ji Yunʼs tutoring that I forgot about the time. Since itʼs already late to return in time for dinner, Uncle Yi Mu suggested that I just sleep here. Is it alright, Auntie? Iʼm really sorry.”

His excuse had a lot of loopholes in them. But he could use his auntʼs fondness for him, so the other could ignore those loopholes. And thatʼs by intentionally sounding like he was very sorry and guilty. His aunt would then focus more on appeasing him than thinking of the loopholes of the excuse he just gave. Him receiving permission would just be a bonus.

Sure enough, his auntʼs voice when she responded was only filled with appeasement. ”Itʼs okay, Xiao Yan. Staying there for the night is much safer.”

Sorry, Auntie Xiulan - Luo Yan inwardly said, apologizing to the other for lying. After thanking his aunt and the other telling him to take care and not to trouble the Shen uncle and nephew, they both ended the call.

”Is this really alright?” Shen Ji Yun asked.

Luo Yan turned to the other, who was currently driving. Even though there was a bit of worry in his voice, the excitement in his eyes couldnʼt be hidden. Showing just how much he liked the idea of spending the night at the otherʼs house.

This was not actually part of the date plan for today. But because of that fortune telling incident, Luo Yan felt guilty about not being able to tell Shen Ji Yun the whole truth. So, he decided to give him a bit of ʼsugarʼ and suggested staying over at his home for a night.

Shen Ji Yunʼs reaction to that was just as expected. The corner of his lips turned up and his face flushed with excitement. If it was not too out of character, the other would have probably jumped up and down because of happiness.

But Shen Ji Yun being Shen Ji Yun, he immediately worried that his family might not approve of him staying over the night. Thus, the phone call.

Since his father and older brother had already gone back to S City, the only one he could ask for permission was Aunt Xiulan. And he was confident that the other would let him stay out for a night.

Because first, she had known Shen Ji Yun for years now. She had already built trust in him. She wouldnʼt be too worried that the other would not take care of Luo Yan. Especially since Uncle Yi Mu would also be there. Second, sheʼs not really on board of how protective his dad and brothers were of him. She believed that a little independence was needed so he could grow into his own person.

And, as he expected, his aunt agreed.

”Itʼs fine,” he said. ”Or do you not want me to stay over?” 𝑵𝗈𝐕ℯ𝑙𝓤𝓈𝒷.𝔠𝑶𝐌

”No!” Shen Ji Yun quickly said. ”I would really love for you to stay over for the night.”

If the other was not driving, Luo Yan would probably have already leaned over and asked him ʼhow much do you love it?ʼ. If he did that right now, they might only get into a car accident.

Shen Ji Yun was already barely taking his eyes off the road. Even the car speed didnʼt go beyond 50 kph. Showing how careful the other was driving. Luo Yan knew that this was all in consideration of him. And it just made him appreciate and love the other more. He didnʼt want Shen Ji Yunʼs effort to go down the drain just because of his urge to tease him.

”And I will. So, letʼs just enjoy this evening and have that dinner,” he said.

Luo Yan suggested that they eat dinner out. Since Uncle Yi Mu and Uncle Yue were both at home, itʼs better to let them have more alone time. Of course, Shen Ji Yun had already called home and told them that Luo Yan would be staying over. He told Uncle Yi Mu that they would have dinner out before returning home.

”I would have loved cooking dinner for you,” Shen Ji Yun said, looking a tad bit disappointed that he couldnʼt.

”Well, thereʼs still breakfast. Brother Ji Yun could just make a hearty breakfast for me tomorrow,” Luo Yan said with a smile.

As if he liked that idea, a smile also crossed Shen Ji Yunʼs lips. ”I will definitely do that.”

Just then, Luo Yanʼs phone rang. He looked at it and saw Luo Jinʼs caller ID. He had already somehow expected that his younger brother would call, so it didnʼt really surprise him.

He accepted the call. ”Ah Jin?”

”Yan, are you really going to spend the night at... that guyʼs place?”

Luo Yan put his phone slightly away from his ear because of how Luo Jin almost shouted that question. ”Ah Jin, calm down, and yes, Iʼm going to stay at Brother Ji Yunʼs house.”

”How can I calm down when I heard that? I havenʼt even gotten over the fact that you went out today with that guy without telling me anything and now youʼre even spending the night with him?”

Luo Yan sighed. He knew this would happen. ”Ah Jin, have you forgotten already that Brother Ji Yun is my boyfriend? Of course, I would want to spend time with him. Just the two of us. Besides, nothing of what youʼre worrying about will happen. Aside from the fact that Uncle Yi Mu and Uncle Yue will also be with us, both Brother Ji Yun and I are irresponsible adults.

”Thatʼs right. Adults. Iʼm also an adult now. I know that you worry because you love me, and I love you as well. But please learn to tone it down.”

There was silence from the other line. Then he heard grumbling. And then, at last, he said, ”Fine. Just let me say something to that guy.”
