The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL] Chapter 873

SHEN JI YUN got off the taxi and walked towards the home he shared with his uncle. He just returned from Hunan province. Arriving back at home, he still couldn’t believe that he actually succeeded in his confession. This weekend just felt like a dream. A very wonderful dream.

But it’s not a dream. It happened and it was all real. Now he and Luo Yan were in a romantic relationship. He’s now Luo Yan’s boy—ehem, boyfriend. He felt his whole face heating up at that thought.

After Luo Yan agreed to be with him, Shen Ji Yun made a promise to himself. That he would do everything in his power to make the other happy. That no matter what kind of challenges might come in their way, he would never let him face it alone. He would be with him every step of the way.

He knew that relationships were not something that could be depicted as perfect. There would be days when he and Luo Yan would quarrel and have their misunderstandings. But he’s confident that days like those would not tear them apart. He would make sure that it wouldn’t happen at the very least.

Besides, for something like that, communication was the key. Luo Yan was certainly much better than him in that aspect. So, he doubted that any misunderstanding could really cause a serious rift between them. In fact, knowing his rabbit, he would definitely not let it develop to that.

Shen Ji Yun couldn’t help but smile at that thought.

As he walked, he frowned because the lights in the house were all off. It’s just ten in the evening. His uncle doesn’t sleep this early.

He took out his key and opened the door. He walked inside and quickly turned on the lights. “Uncle?”

He closed the door and called his uncle again. When he received no response, he knew that the other was probably not at home. Was he still in S City? He could only think of two reasons why that could be.

First, his uncle succeeded in reuniting with Uncle Yue and the two were enjoying their time together. Or second, Uncle Yue left S City and now his uncle was in pursuit of him.

For the happiness of the two, Shen Ji Yun hoped that it would be the former.

He took out his phone. There was no message from his uncle. Again, it’s either one of the two – that everything was fine or there was a big problem.

He couldn’t just keep guessing here. So, to solve that, he called the other. After a few rings, his call was finally answered.

“Hello, Uncle?”

“Ji Yun, are you back at B City?”

Shen Ji Yun didn’t notice anything wrong from his uncle’s voice. That made him feel relieved. But still he had to ask the question.

“Yes, I just came back. Are you still in S City?”

“I am. I’m planning to stay here for a while.”

That surprised Shen Ji Yun. “Then, did everything go well with Uncle Yue?”

—–

Hearing his nephew’s question, Shen Yi Mu’s memory returned to last night. The moment when he embraced the other.

=====

Feeling the soft body in his arms, Shen Yi Mu finally felt peace he had never felt for the past years since Jiang Yue left. He closed his eyes and breathed in the other’s familiar’s scent – a combination of Jiang Yue’s favorite cologne and his natural body scent.

“I miss you, Ah Yue. So, so much.”

There was no response for a time which made him feel nervous. And then he felt it. Ah Yue’s hands first grabbed his coat and then his arms slowly surrounded his waist. The breath Shen Yi Mu was holding was slowly released. He was responding to him! This was a good sign.

“M-me too,” Jiang Yue said in a small voice.

The moment he heard that, he couldn’t stop himself from hugging Jiang Yue tighter. There’s a lot of things he wanted to say, a lot of things he wanted to do. But he knew that it’s not the time for any of that. There was much more important thing he needed to do.

“Let’s talk, Ah Yue.”

Silence pervaded in the air once again. Then he felt Jiang Yue nodding.

“Let- let go of me first,” Jiang Yue said. “Let’s talk inside.”

Shen Yi Mu truly didn’t want to let go. But he knew that if he didn’t, then they couldn’t talk what they needed to talk about. So, he slowly let go.

Jiang Yue didn’t look at him and instead quickly walked to the door. He took out his keys and opened it. “Please, come in.”

Shen Yi Mu walked inside the room. Jiang Yue followed and turned on the lights. As light spread inside a room, Shen Yi Mu finally had a good look of the surrounding. Just like his guess, the room was mostly like a studio apartment.

There weren’t too many decorations around. Everything was kept simple. It’s not like Jiang Yue. Because he knew how the other loved to display different knick-knacks here and there. He could tell that it’s because Jiang Yue didn’t consider this place as his home.

Should he be happy about that? Yes, because it meant that there might be a chance that he still considered him as his home.

“You can hang your coat on the rack,” Jiang Yue said. “I’ll make us tea. Please, make yourself comfortable.”

The other then walked to the kitchen. Shen Yi Mu removed his coat and hanged it on the rack. He didn’t sit down and just stared at Jiang Yue.

When he saw that the other put the tea cups on the tray, he quickly stood up and helped Jianng Yue carried the tray. He put it down on the small table that was on the kitchen area. The two of them then sat opposite each other.

Shen Yi Mu picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip. His eyes widened a bit. It’s peppermint tea. Which happened to be his favorite. He raised his head and looked at Jiang Yue. Then, he finally asked the question he’d been wanting to ask since the day he left.

“Why did you leave?”
