The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL] Chapter 226

BUT if Shen Ji Yun thought about it carefully, hadn't the two of them been alone a couple of times already inside the game? Could he consider those times as their 'dates'? His whole face suddenly heated up again thinking of that possibility. And then he shook his head, thinking how idiotic he was acting right now. It's like all his brain cells were replaced by heart shaped bubbles. That's why his line of thinking always led to that direction.

If he continued on this way, sooner or later, he would be walking around with the word 'I'm in love with Yan Yan' on his forehead while releasing pink aura wherever he went. He sighed. Now he truly understood why people said that love could make people foolish. Anyway, he's willing to be a fool. He just had to make sure that Luo Yan wouldn't think of him as one.

"But maybe that's not a very good idea," Luo Yan suddenly said, completely cutting off Shen Ji Yun's train of thought.

Shen Ji Yun suddenly started to panic, thinking that their possible 'date' would be postponed. Of course, none of that panic showed on his face. It still remained expressionless. But if one looked closely at his eyes, they would see the tension lying there.

"Why?" he couldn't help but asked. 

"Well, Brother Ji Yun looks so handsome, you will definitely attract too much attention from other players if you walk around in that avatar." 

Not to mention, Luo Yan was also there. Their combination would surely attract a lot of gazes. Considering that Shen Ji Yun was a very well-known player, if they walked around one of the cities together, it's a sure fact that most of the players they would encounter would take snapshots of them. Then it would be posted on the forum. And once again, he would be the topic of discussion. 

Well, not that he mind. He was just worried that Shen Ji Yun would be annoyed by it. He knew how much the guy disliked being gawked at. That's why even though his real game avatar was so beautiful and handsome, he rarely used it. 

"You think I'm handsome?" Shen Ji Yun said.

Luo Yan felt weird. Out of all the things he said, why did Shen Ji Yun just focus on that. It seemed a little bit wrong. Not like something this guy would do. But he still answered honestly, nonetheless. "Yes, Brother Ji Yun is very handsome. Especially in this attire."

'Brother Ji Yun is very handsome…' 'Brother Ji Yun is very handsome…' 'Brother Ji Yun is very handsome…' – that sentence kept on echoing inside his mind. [Yan Yan thinks I'm very handsome!]

A kind of satisfaction he never felt before suddenly bubbled up inside him. It's only now, at this moment, that he truly appreciated that he was given these outstanding facial features. Unconsciously, a bright smile bloomed on his face. Making him even more handsome.

Luo Yan only felt that Shen Ji Yun was suddenly surrounded by a bright light. He almost resisted the urge to close his eyes just so he wouldn't be blinded.

[Mashter, why does Eclipse feel that this handsome guy is shining?] – Eclipse asked inside his mind.

Eclipse really deserved to be his pet. Because that's exactly what Luo Yan was thinking. When Shen Ji Yun showed that big, bright smile, he felt that thousands of light bulbs suddenly lighted up around him. Illuminating him completely. Now, he suddenly understood what the phrase 'mega-watt smile' meant.

"Yan Yan is also very beautiful," Shen Ji Yun suddenly said.

Luo Yan looked at him as if he grew an extra limb. "Brother Ji Yun, are you okay? You don't have a fever or something?" he couldn't help but ask, because the other was truly acting weird. 

Shen Ji Yun was startled by Luo Yan's question. And then he realized that what he had done for the past few minutes was truly unlike himself. What was he doing? Didn't he just say that he wouldn't make himself look like a fool in front of Luo Yan? He covered his mouth with his fist and pretended to cough. 

"I'm fine. I just thought that I should also compliment you." When he saw that Luo Yan seemed to still be unconvinced by his answer, he quickly pulled the conversation back to the original topic. "I don't mind to walk around in this avatar."

Luo Yan secretly let out a sigh of relief seeing that Shen Ji Yun seemed to finally return to normal. "But you will be stared at by a lot of people, won't that make Brother Ji Yun feel uncomfortable?"

Shen Ji Yun shrugged. "Not really. I used my alt account not because it's uncomfortable to use my real account but simply because it's troublesome." But he's willing to deal with these troublesome problems as long as he could attract the rabbit's attention. "What type of errands were you talking about earlier?"

"Brother Ji Yun knows that the opening night for my pavilion is on this coming Saturday, right?" Shen Ji Yun nodded. "So, you see, it's like this…"

Luo Yan explained how he wanted to use boats as some sort of mode of transportation to deliver the guests across the lake. He just wasn't sure where he could get such a service or if it was even available in the first place. 

Shen Ji Yun became thoughtful. This idea was actually quite good. It would add some kind of special ambiance to the pavilion. "You can buy boats at some specialized merchandized shop. But that wouldn't be enough. You also have to buy blank NPCs to act as boatmen. After all, those boats wouldn't drive by themselves."

Luo Yan already read somewhere what black NPCs were. They were NPCs that could be bought in the game and didn't have any assign roles. Once a player bought one, they could assign a role to the NPC. This role was usually attached to some kind of job like a maid or a waiter for example. Players usually put these NPCs to work at their own business establishments. 

"I see. Then, is it really alright for Brother Ji Yun to accompany me?" 

"Of course. Shall we go now?" Shen Ji Yun asked.

It's better to go now before that annoying gnome suddenly appeared and get in between them. When Luo Yan nodded, Shen Ji Yun no longer waited. He grabbed Luo Yan's hand and just directly used a teleportation scroll.
