Chapter 930: WE ARE EQUAL
Chapter 930: WE ARE EQUAL
SHEN JI YUN was waiting at his island for Luo Yan. After his call earlier, the other told him that they should meet up in the game. That way, he could tell everything that happened to him today in detail. Shen Ji Yun agreed and thus, here he was.
He wondered if something serious happened that Luo Yan couldn't tell it to him over the phone. Could it be... that Huang guy threatened Luo Yan? Just imagining that, anger quickly filled him. He was ready to fly to S City just to deal with that Huang guy.
Yes, Luo Yan told him that there was nothing to worry about, saying that the Huang guy didn't have the kind of character who would do something like that. Despite the way the other acted.
In his opinion, his rabbit was just being too kind. He probably wanted to believe that there was no malice behind that guy's words. But Shen Ji Yun had a different opinion.
That guy stared at Shen Ji Yun as if he wanted to stab him or something. He could clearly feel the other's negative emotions towards him. Those negative emotions could easily turn into malice. Waiting until that happened wasn't exactly ideal.
As he was thinking that, the one he's waiting for finally arrived.
Luo Yan came running towards him the moment he appeared. Hugging his waist in the process. He looked up and said;
"Sorry, Brother Ji Yun. I'm apologize for not calling you immediately. I kind of forgot about it because something happened that occupied my mind for a bit."
Shen Ji Yun planned to say that it didn't matter, even though he still felt a bit unfair that he would be forgotten like that. If he described this feeling to someone, they would probably tell him that he was sulking. But after he heard the last part, he became worried in an instant and totally forgot the urge to sulk.
"What happened?" he asked, full of concern.
"I made a new friend! You know him too. He's that dark elf I fought during the Rookie Carnival and the one with Huang Wen last night. He's really fun. We hung out a bit and I just sort of forgot about the time," Luo Yan said, scratching his cheek when he said that last part.
Shen Ji Yun's furrowed browse straightened. He also subconsciously stepped back, making Luo Yan's arms around his waist fell down.
"Good for you. It must have been a lot of fun that you even forgot about me," he said, not even noticing the sarcasm laced in his voice.
But Luo Yan certainly did.
He stared at Shen Ji Yun and only did realize that the other was probably hurt by what he said. It must have sounded that he forgot about him because of another person. Then him saying that he had fun was probably hitting the nail on the head.
Now Luo Yan felt even more guilty. Like he was the worst kind of scum or something.
He reached for Shen Ji Yun's hand and held it tightly. "I'm sorry, Brother Ji Yun. it's my fault for forgetting to call you. Reasoning about it would probably just sound like an excuse, so I won't do that. But I want you to know that this mishap of mine doesn't mean that you're not important. You're one of the most important people in my life. And that probably wouldn't change in this lifetime. I promise not to do the same mistake. Please, forgive me, hmm?"
Hearing those words, Shen Ji Yun suddenly felt embarrassed. Because he was acting like an immature child! This was not even something that worth apologizing for. And yet he made Luo Yan feel guilty for something like that. Their relationship was just starting and he was already not being a good boyfriend.
He pulled Luo Yan to him and hugged the other tightly. "No, don't apologize. You didn't do anything wrong. I was just overreacting."
Luo Yan shook his head. "No, you're not. Don't spoil me like this. If I did something wrong, then it's just right for me to apologize. The same goes for you too." He looked up at the other and added in a serious voice, "Brother Ji Yun, we're equal in this relationship. One shouldn't have the advantage over the other. Because I love you, just as much as you love me."
Shen Ji Yun felt his cheeks heating up at those straightforward words. He put his chin on Luo Yan's shoulder and said softly, "Yes."
But deep inside, he knew that even if Luo Yan did something wrong, he would probably still forgive him. No, in the first place, in his heart and mind, Luo Yan was someone who couldn't do anything wrong. But he didn't voice that opinion because he knew that the other would definitely disapprove.
The two stayed in that position for quite a while, just enjoying being in each other's arms. When they separated, Shen Ji Yun decided to change the topic and just talked about what they were really here to discuss.
"How did your talk with that Huang guy went?" he asked.
Luo Yan showed an awkward expression at the mention of Huang Wen. But that expression quickly disappeared. Probably because he had already decided what to do before even coming here.
It's important to have transparency in a relationship. If he hid something like this from Shen Ji Yun, it might just cause a bigger misunderstanding in the future. And Luo Yan didn't want that to happen.
"It went well," he started. "He didn't threaten me or anything like that. I'm also certain that he wouldn't go around telling people about our relationship just to spite us. There's just one thing that you should probably know."
If the talk with that guy really went well, why did Luo Yan have that awkward smile when he said that last part? So, Shen Ji Yun asked in a worried tone, "What is it?"
"Well, ahm, he kind of confessed to me."
