The Return Of The God Level Assassin

UNCLE CHU brought them to a Chinese restaurant near the vicinity of the school. The restaurant looked pretty high-class just based on its outward appearance. Luo Yan didn’t expect that such a restaurant could be found near the school. But if one thought about it carefully, it’s not that weird for a restaurant like this to be near their school’s vicinity. After all, Guizu Academy was still a school for the rich.

Their older brother was also a former student of Guizu, it’s not that weird for him to know about such a place. Speaking of Luo Ren, maybe he should tell him about what happened with Yu Jiao’s stepsister. He could probably do more for her considering his status as an ’adult’. Besides, if his understanding of his older brother’s feelings for Yu Jiao was correct, then the other would be more than glad and motivated to help his friend.

The three of them walked inside the restaurant and a waiter quickly guided them to one of their private boxes.

The waiter opened the door for them and inside they saw a handsome man sitting beside a turntable full of different dishes. He was surrounded an indifferent and cold air, as if no one was allowed to go near him. But when he heard the door opening and he turned around and saw them, that atmosphere around completely vanished. It felt like they just welcomed a warm Spring.

"You’re finally here. If you arrive a bit later, the food would have probably gone cold," Luo Ren said. "Is there traffic on the way?"

"No, Brother, just some unforeseen situation," Luo Yan answered.

Yu Jiao was shocked seeing Luo Ren here. And seeing that Luo Yan didn’t show any abnormal reaction upon walking inside the room and seeing the other meant that his presence was not unexpected. Could it be that the three Luo brothers had an appointment to eat lunch together today? Then what was she doing here, imposing on them? She was even the reason why they were late because of that situation with Mo Jian.

Before she could react and say anything, Luo Yan had already pulled her inside and let her sit on the right side of Luo Ren. While he sat down on he right side. Luo Jin, on the other hand, sat on the remaining seat. The turntable was not that big, only enough for four people. Now that she was sitting here, the table full of dishes didn’t seem to be so overwhelming.

Luo Ren glanced at Yu Jiao, the messy hair and the big glasses were still as he remembered. Although they had seen each other in the game, it was still different seeing her in reality. It would probably be better if he could see those sharp eyes of hers.

But asking her to remove her glasses just so he could do so was not only disrespectful, it would also make him look like some kind of pervert. He already felt like one for having feelings like this for a minor.

He smiled to himself. He might have been affected by Luo Yan’s honesty about his feelings for that guy that Luo Ren could now freely admit his own feelings. In the perspective of others, it’s probably weird to have these feelings for someone they barely had any interaction with. And yet, he did.

Even he couldn’t explain it himself. It only started first as a curiosity. He wanted to know how this shy and timid girl could befriend his brother. But within just a day of her being in their house, that curiosity had turned into interest. And then, to that blushing heartbeat.

That was the first time his heart had beaten for another. It was a... fresh experience. But he didn’t dislike it. In fact, he enjoyed it. Probably because the one at the end of that beating heartbeat was Yu Jiao.

Before he knew it, his feelings had already evolved into something deeper. Something that he couldn’t just simply ignore. To the point that she was all he could think of during his free time. Even when they went to Chengdu, she was still there in his thoughts.

So, yes, he liked Yu Jiao. Maybe his feelings were more than that. But for now, that was enough for him to know that she was special to him. He was willing to take his time to understand these feelings. Then, when the time came that he could tell her his feelings, he could tell her the full extent of it without an ounce of hesitation.

Besides, it’s not as if he could do any of that now since the other was still a minor. He was already a working adult. Laying his hands on a minor would just make him a criminal. Not that he would, of course. He’s not into that sort of thing.

But that didn’t mean that he would stop himself from caring about her or show her just how special she was.

Luo Ren picked a piece of steamed dumpling using a serving chopstick and put it on Yu Jiao’s rice bowl. "Jiao Jiao, eat up a lot, okay?"

Yu Jiao looked at the dumpling then at Luo Ren smiling at her. She actually wanted to say that she probably shouldn’t intrude in their family lunch but this dumpling stopped her. Besides, Luo Yan invited her knowing that their older brother would be here waiting. So, it’s probably okay for her to be here, right?

"T-thank you, Brother Ren," she said, picking up the dumpling and eating it. Her eyes widened a bit when she had a taste. "It’s delicious!"

Luo Ren’s hand was really itching to take those glasses off. He wanted to see the expression on his face when she said that. Were her eyes bent into crescents? Were they shining brightly? He really wanted to know. But he stopped himself. He didn’t want to appear weird in front of Yu Jiao, which he would be if he did that.

So, he just picked more dishes and put it on Yu Jiao’s bowl. "Eat more."

Luo Yan’s expression almost cracked when he saw all these. He suddenly felt like he was being fed dog food for no reason. And when did these two become so close that Yu Jiao was now calling him ’Brother Ren’?

Ah, whatever. It’s better to just eat his fill before his brother gave all the food on the table to Yu Jiao.
