The Return Of The God Level Assassin

LUO YAN woke up very happy and excited. Because today was the start of the two-day preliminaries for the Rookie Carnival. They had to go to Safehaven Harbor before 12 in the afternoon. But before that, their team would meet at their headquarters first. They already talked about it on the group chat last night.

He raised his hand and was about to open the door of his room when his sight landed on the red-string bracelet on his wrist. He smiled unconsciously seeing it. Somehow, he suddenly couldn’t wait to see Shen Ji Yun in the game.

Speaking of the game, before going to vacation, he and Shen Ji Yun forgot to do some in-game things. One, they still hadn’t taken the rewards for finishing the ’Finnea’s Curse’ task. And two, they hadn’t told what they discovered to the leader of Crimson Corps. Because instead of doing those two things, they went straight to Tropical Land to have a date.

But since the next two days would be dedicated for the preliminaries of the Rookie Carnival, they could probably only do those two things after the carnival was over.

Well, he wasn’t really in a rush to do those, that’s probably why he had accidentally forgotten about it. And since Shen Ji Yun mostly leave the decision making to him whenever they did a task together, he probably also forgot about it.

No matter, they could just do it once they’re both free.

Luo Yan walked out of his room and went straight to the dining room to have breakfast. Surprisingly, Luo Jin was already there. In fact, he was the only one there.

"Where’s Dad and Brother?" he asked while sitting beside Luo Jin.

"Dad had to go to the company and Brother just went out to get some package."

Luo Yan nodded. Their father hadn’t gone to the company for three days, it’s only natural to go there to check some things. What he was curious about was what kind of package their older brother had asked to be delivered here.

"Why did you wake up so early?" he just asked Luo Jin instead. "Are you feeling nervous about the preliminaries today?" he added in a teasing voice.

Luo Jin scoffed. "Who’s nervous? I just happened to wake up early."

Luo Yan stared at him and smiled meaningfully. "Hmm... I see."

Luo Jin suddenly felt hairy. Because he had a feeling that Luo Yan didn’t believe him and was just acquiescing for the heck of it. "I really am not nervous!"

"Yes, yes, I know. Our Ah Jin is very brave."

Luo Jin felt the corner of his eye twitching. Luo Yan’s tone was like he was pacifying a kid. He had a feeling that if he continued to argue, he would definitely be more annoyed. He didn’t want to start this day being annoyed with his second brother.

Seeing this reaction, Luo Yan no longer teased his younger brother. So, he just asked instead, "Does Sister Yuqi mention if she already received the souvenir you bought for her?"

At the mention of Su Yuqi, Luo Jin’s face quickly turned red. "H-how would I know?"

"You didn’t ask her?"

"I didn’t!"

Well, Luo Jin actually wanted to. But his fingers automatically froze every time he tried to type it on his phone. He was worrying if Su Yuqi would think more if he did so. Him buying her a souvenir was already a bit too much. If he inquired more, she might think that he couldn’t wait to know her reaction to the gift.

Which was definitely not the case. Really.

"Why are you asking me anyway?" he just asked Luo Yan.

"Because I also bought her a souvenir. And since we both used the same delivery company, if Sister Yuqi had already received your gift, then she must have also received mine," Luo Yan explained. Then he smiled sweetly at his younger brother. "It’s definitely not because I wanted to tease you or anything."

Luo Jin was now seriously considering if he should flip the table just to show Luo Yan his annoyance level right now. Instead, he just stretched out his hand and pulled Luo Yan’s cheek.

"Aw... aw... stop pinching!" Luo Yan said while patting Luo Jin’s hand that was pinching his cheek.

Luo Jin also showed a sweet smile, imitating Luo Yan. But it only looked weird on him. "Sorry. I just find Yan so, so cute that my hand just moved on its own."

Then he also stretched out his other hand to pinch his second brother’s other cheek. He didn’t let go until he had enough.

"Ah Jin, you’ve changed. You no longer love me," Luo Yan said dramatically while rubbing his pinched cheeks that already turned a bit red.

Luo Jin refused to give a response to that.

"What are the two of you doing?" suddenly asked by a voice.

They both looked towards the entrance of the dining room and saw their eldest brother walking inside.

Luo Yan quickly complained. "Brother, Ah Jin is bullying me again. Look, my cheeks are all red."

Luo Ren looked at the red cheeks and said distressedly, "Don’t worry, Brother is going to avenge you."

Then he walked towards Luo Jin and pinched both his cheeks until it also turned red.

"Brother-!" Luo Jin complained, trying to get his cheeks away from his brother’s hands.

Luo Ren stopped and turned to Luo Yan. "There, I already avenged you."

"Thank you, Brother! You’re really the best!" Luo Yan said, smiling at his brother.

Luo Jin looked at his two shameless brothers and just rolled his eyes. He rubbed his cheeks, thinking how childish the two were. He’s the youngest and yet he’s the most mature. These two should be ashamed.

Luo Ren finally sat down on his seat.

"By the way, Brother, didn’t you get a package? What did you buy?" Luo Yan curiously asked.

"Oh, I bought a VR helmet for that game you and Xiao Jin are playing."

Both Luo Yan and Luo Jin inadvertently looked at each other when they heard that.
