1069 BACK AT THE BAI MANSION

LUO YAN walked into the house, with Shen Ji Yun following closely behind. The moment he entered the door, a warm hug from his aunt immediately greeted him.

After a big, tight hug, Sun Xiulan let go of his nephew and looked him up and down. "Are you alright, Xiao Yan? You did not get hurt, right?"

When she heard about what happened to both her nephews, she was not only worried but also very scared. This fear was even more intense considering that the two involved were the same ones who had experienced that accident eight years ago. If something bad happened to the two when they were under her care, how could she face her friend in the afterlife? But more than that, just the sheer thought of something happening to the two was enough to make him faint from fear.

Seeing his aunt's worried look, Luo Yan felt a bit guilty. "I'm fine, Aunt Xiulan. I didn't really participate in the fight. You know how weak my body is."

Shen Ji Yun, who heard that, chose to remain silent. Well, it's true that Luo Yan didn't directly participate. He just taunted those gangsters and threw things at them. Which meant he didn't fight, in the true sense of the word. So, there's no need to tell Aunt Xiulan about it.

That's right. It's definitely not because he was protecting his boyfriend and didn't want him to get into trouble.

"That's good," Xiulan said, heaving a sigh of relief. "But Xiao Jin, how could he just jump in and fight against those gangsters? Although he has a great physique, fighting a group all by himself is definitely too reckless. Especially a group of criminals!"

Luo Yan only laughed awkwardly. Luo Jin probably had no choice since Su Yuqi was involved. His brother couldn't exactly not do anything when the girl he liked was in trouble. But he couldn't just say that to his aunt to explain. He's not even sure if Luo Jin had already confessed to Su Yuqi. So, how could he reveal his brother's secret just like that?

Of course, this didn't include Shen Ji Yun. It's fine to reveal it to the other. After all, it's not like Shen Ji Yun would go out of his way to tell others or even tease Luo Jin about it.

Anyway, he should at least help his brother out so he wouldn't be scolded.

"Aunt, please don't be angry at Ah Jin," he said with a pitiful expression. "He just did that because he couldn't handle the injustice. So, he fought those bad guys to save Sister Yuqi and the waitress. Just like those heroes in movies and TV shows. Isn't Ah Jin great?" He turned to Shen Ji Yun. "Don't you think so too, Brother Ji Yun?"

Shen Ji Yun was momentarily stunned. Not because of what Luo Yan said, or the way he way acting, but because of how the other was blinking those big peach blossom eyes at him. They were full of earnestness, shining like obsidian gems with countless stars sparkling within.

"How beautiful..." he muttered unconsciously.

"What's that, Ji Yun?" Xiulan asked. Since Ji Yun's voice was a bit low when he said that, she couldn't hear what he said clearly. "Did you say something about... beauty?"

As the one standing closer to Shen Ji Yun, Luo Yan heard what the other said clearly. Shen Ji Yun definitely did it unconsciously. Ha, what a sinful man he was. To seduce his boyfriend by just acting pitiful and blinking his eyes a few times.

If this was another time, Luo Yan would probably have more narcissistic thoughts than that. But since he still had to correct Shen Ji Yun's little 'blunder', he somehow forced himself to return to his 'normal' thinking.

Although before he could really do anything, Bai Ze suddenly interfered on the side. "Mom, why don't you bring Xiao Yan to his room? I'm sure he's very tired right now because of everything that happened today. I'll wait here for Dad and Xiao Jin with Ji Yun."

Luo Yan glanced at his cousin. The other probably did that to take Aunt Xiulan's attention away from what Shen Ji Yun had said. Although he wasn't planning to go to bed yet, he decided to just play along.

And besides, maybe he should take this time to contact his father and older brother and tell them of what happened. Of course, the one he would give was the desensitized version. So, the two wouldn't overly worry.

"Oh yes, come Xiao Yan," Aunt Xiulan said, completely forgetting about Shen Ji Yun's slip of tongue earlier.

Luo Yan nodded and followed his aunt. He glanced back at Shen Ji Yun, waved at the other and then made a signal with his hand, telling the other he would call him later. Shen Ji Yun nodded.

Luo Yan turned to his aunt. "Aunt, are Xiao Ye and Grandpa already asleep?"

"Yes. Xiao Ye actually wanted to wait with us, but he fell asleep while waiting." freewe bnovel.com

The conversation between the two drifted as they climbed up the stairs. Seeing that, Bai Ze finally let out a sigh of relief. Then he turned to Shen Ji Yun, looking annoyed and frustrated, with a touch of helplessness.

"Really, Ji Yun. Can't you be more careful? Because of the trouble you four were in, do you know how stressed I was? Especially with that stupid Weibo post. Oh, you probably don't know, but our team almost got into a pinch. Which I already solved, by the way. I was just telling myself it's good that the rumor that spread wasn't about your relationship with Xiao Yan. But here you are, almost admitting to my mother that you and--"

"Thank you," Shen Ji Yun said, cutting off Bai Ze's nagging. "I already heard about what happened. It's great that you managed to fix it this fast. As thank you for your efforts, I decided to cook something for you. If you have any request--"

"One week home-cooked lunchbox!" Bai Ze quickly said, not even waiting for Shen Ji Yun to finish.
