Chapter 1052 AH JIN’S REQUEST
1052 AH JIN'S REQUEST
MOST schools' winter vacation was coming to an end. It was the same for Guizhu Academy, where Luo Yan and Luo Jin attended. It would be back to school for the two next week. Which meant they also had to go back to S City. Their scheduled flight was on Saturday, two days from now.
That's why Luo Yan made plans with Shen Ji Yun today. They would go on a date and just have fun for the whole day.
Something interesting actually happened last night when he was about to ask for permission to go out today.
=====
"Yan, can we talk for a minute?" Luo Jin suddenly asked in a very secretive manner.
Luo Yan turned to his brother, his expression full of curiosity. They had just finished eating dinner, and he was planning to go to the study to talk to his uncle. He and Shen Ji Yun had made plans to go out tomorrow, so he had to ask for permission to go out.
He and Luo Jin only had two days left here. Of course, going out on their last day instead of spending that time with family was definitely out of the question. So, the only day he could have a date with Shen Ji Yun was tomorrow.
Anyway, to know what his brother wanted to talk about, he just nodded and led the other to his room so they could talk.
"What do you want to talk about, Ah Jin?" he asked.
"Well... you see... I..." Luo Jin stammered, looking left and right as if he didn't know how he should say what he wanted to say.
Seeing Luo Jin hesitate like that, Luo Yan just became more curious. So, he decided to help the other relax. With a solemn expression, he put his hand on his brother's shoulder and said seriously;
"Ah Jin, if you have committed a crime, tell me. This brother will definitely help you."
As he had expected, the moment he said that, Luo Jin's tense muscles relaxed. His face turned red in anger and shouted in a very Luo Jin-like way, "Who would commit a crime?"
Luo Yan shrugged. "How would I know? You're acting so strangely, like a person who did something wrong. It's natural for me to think that way."
"The first thing that came to your mind is me committing a crime. How is that natural?" Luo Jin said through gritted teeth.
"Well, if it's not that, then you just have to tell me what it is you wanted to say," Luo Yan responded with a smile.
Luo Jin became silent, then after a few seconds, he let out a long sigh. He then closed his eyes tightly, as if contemplating whether what to say. After a while, the expression on his face turned to resoluteness. It seemed that he had already decided.
"You're going on a date with that guy tomorrow, right?"
Luo Yan raised his brow at the sudden question. He observed his brother's expression. Luo Jin didn't seem like he was about to protest that he should not go out with Shen Ji Yun tomorrow. The way the other said it was like wanting to confirm if he would leave tomorrow, and what he would say next would depend on his answer.
"Yes, that's the plan," Luo Yan said honestly.
"Then, can you also include me? Just tell aunt and uncle that the two of us will meet Shen Ji Yun or something."
Before Luo Yan could react to that suggestion, Luo Jin continued;
"Don't worry, I won't be a big light bulb on your date. Just let me leave together with you guys and drop me off somewhere after." 𝒇𝓻𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Hearing that, Luo Yan slowly understood why Luo Jin was acting like this. A teasing smile crossed his lips. "Are you going on a date with Sister Yuqi?"
Luo Jin's whole face turned red. It differed from the red face he had earlier, which was caused by a sudden burst of anger. This time, it was definitely something akin to shyness.
"Aww... when did our Ah Jin grow up?" he said, acting like he was shedding tears. "Now he also knows how to ask a girl on a date."
Luo Jin's face became even redder. "S-so, what is it? W-will you let me leave with you tomorrow?"
Luo Yan grinned. "If it's for my dear brother's love life, of course, I will help you."
=====
And that's how Luo Jin ended up in the backseat of the car with Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun.
Luo Yan glanced at his brother through the rearview mirror.
He was wearing a sturdy leather jacket over a black turtleneck. The dark jeans and boots completed the look. With a casually draped scarf and tousled hair, his style was effortlessly confident, emanating a subdued allure. Even the small ruby earring on his left ear added a touch of unconventional charm.
It was obvious that Luo Jin made an effort to dress up for today. Luo Yan couldn't help but smile a bit seeing that. Because of the other's tall frame and mature features, many assumed that he was older than his age. Especially when they saw him for the first time.
But looking at him now, with that nervous expression on his face, it was pretty obvious that he was only a teenager. Right now, he just looked like a boy fretting over his first date.
Luo Yan honestly wanted to help the other, like give him some love advice or something. But he's worried that would only have an opposite effect. It's probably better to just let Luo Jin navigate this one on his own. It would be a good experience for him. No matter what the outcome of this date was.
"You can just drop me off over there," Luo Jin said, pointing at a nearby parking lot.
"Are you sure? We can drop you off at your meeting place," Luo Yan said.
"No, it's fine. Just drop me off there," Luo Jin insisted.
Shen Ji Yun drove to the parking lot and parked the car.
Before Luo Jin could get off, Luo Yan quickly said, "Fighting, Ah Jin! Go and capture Sister Yuqi's heart."
Luo Jin blushed before getting off of the car as if he couldn't wait to get away from there.
Sorry for the super late update! (???︿???)
