Chapter 402 - TO CHENGDU
Chapter 402 – TO CHENGDU
LUO YAN was inside his walk-in closet, looking for clothes to wear. Today was the day they were travelling to Chengdu. He had already packed his clothes and all other essentials that he would bring.
Since it's already the middle of autumn, he should wear warm yet still a bit stylish clothes. But it definitely should be comfortable. So, he picked a purple parka which he would put over a simple shirt. Then he would pair it with white fitted jeans. For his footwear – he'd wear a pair of black boots. Then, he would add a white knitted beanie.
When he wore the pants, he noticed that the hem was a few centimeters higher from his ankles than it normally should be. He tilted his head and as if a light bulb lit up in his mind. He thought of a certain possibility and he quickly ran towards the scale to measure his height.
His eyes widened when he saw the result. Sure enough, he grew taller again! And by two centimeters at that! He's now 156 cm! It's only been about two weeks since he last measured his height but he grew by another two centimeters again. No wonder his pants seemed to be a bit shorter.
He happily finished dressing up and walked out of his room. There's an obvious spring in his steps, showing just how happy he was. How could he not when it clearly showed that the speed of his growth was increasing?
He might still be shorter in comparison to other boys his age. But at least he's six centimeters taller compared to when he just woke up in this body. That meant that there's still a lot of room for improvement.
"What made our Yan Yan so happy?" asked his older brother who saw him when he arrived at the living room.
Luo Yan turned to the direction of the voice and saw both his brothers there.
His older brother was wearing a green shawl cardigan over a light blue shirt and a slim fitted dark wash denim. These two were paired with dark blue suede men's chukka boots. This casual style made Luo Ren appeared a bit boyish. His coldness was also greatly decreased.
Luo Jin, on the other hand, was wearing his usual style. A dark blue windbreaker over a white crew neck shirt, ripped jeans, and a pair of black wingtip boots. There's a headphone already hanging on his neck.
Even though the two brothers' styles were different, one couldn't deny that they're both overly handsome.
Luo Yan smiled and walked to Luo Ren. "Brother, I just grew another two centimeters. I'm 156 cm now," he said proudly,
Luo Ren also smiled and gently patted his younger brother's head. "That's great, Yan Yan. Congratulations!"
"Yan, are you sure you didn't just imagine that?" Luo Jin, who was sitting on the couch, asked. His tone was obviously filled with teasing. "I don't see much difference though."
Luo Yan pouted. "How can you see the difference when we see each other every day?"
"Yan Yan, ignore Xiao Jin. He's just blind and can't see how much taller you grew," Luo Ren said.
"Brother really has good vision," Luo Yan said, giving his older brother a thumbs up. "Unlike some other brother I know."
"True," Luo Ren agreed.
Luo Jin watched his two older brothers performed a show of 'we're good brothers but you're not'. "Is it fun to gang up on you little brother like this?"
Luo Ren and Luo Yan looked at each other before turning back to Luo Jin and answering at the same time, "Yes."
"You two are shameless," Luo Jin said, shaking his head.
"Who are shameless?" suddenly asked by a deep baritone voice.
They turned towards the stairs and saw their father coming down. Luo Yan rushed to him and hugged his arm.
"Dad, it's just Ah Jin bullying us," he said.
Luo Jin's expression almost cracked when he heard that. "Are you sure it's not the other way around?"
"Of course not. What Yan Yan said is true," Luo Ren followed.
Luo Jin only looked at Luo Ren as if he's hopeless. Really, there's a limit on how much someone could spoil another person.
"Yes, our Xiao Yan always says the truth," Luo Wei Tian added even though he had no idea what his three sons were actually talking about.
[And here comes another hopeless guy.] – Luo Jin shook his head.
Luo Yan chuckled seeing everyone's reaction. Seriously, if he did not grow up the way he did, he might truly succumb to this excessive spoiling and became the type he hated. You know, that kind of spoiled young master who thinks everything should revolve around them.
"Shall we go? There's only a bit of an hour left before our flight," Luo Yan said, changing the subject.
"Are your luggage ready?" Luo Wei Tian asked his three sons and the three all nodded. "Then, let's go to Chengdu."

Shen Ji Yun carried a duffel bag down the stairs. He saw that his uncle was already in the living room. But he was talking to someone over the phone, so Shen Ji Yun didn't bother him.
When the other finished with his call, he asked, "Uncle, should we leave now?"
Their flight to Chengdu was still two hours away but it's good to go there as early as possible to make sure that there wouldn't be a possibility that they would miss their flight.
Shen Yi Mu turned to his nephew with a guilty expression. "Ji Yun, there's an emergency at the company and I have to return. I don't think I could finish before our flight. I'm sorry. Should we just reschedule?"
This was the first time that his nephew ever asked him to go on a vacation with him. But here he was telling him that he had to go to the company. If it was something that could be solve without his presence, he definitely wouldn't go. But sadly, that was not the case.
"It's okay, Uncle. You can go to the company. I'm sure it's important," Shen Ji Yun said without much expression on his face. "I can just go ahead by myself."
Shen Yi Mu was a bit surprised when he heard that. Why did he have a feeling that it wouldn't matter even if he went with Ji Yun or not?
