The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

Chapter 892: HOW NATURAL

DUAN YU glanced at YUN who was standing at a distance. The other was visibly frowning with a dark look on his face. This was probably the most expression he had seen on the other. No, rather, ever since earlier, YUN had been showing expressions that Duan Yu had never thought he was capable of.

Everyone in the game probably knew just how expressionless YUN was. Many even believed that he programmed his avatar to be that way. Because after all, a normal human would have a change in their expression, no matter how miniscule.

If Duan Yu didn’t know for a fact that there was no such set up in the game, he might have believed that. Especially after experiencing that dungeon with the other during the festival of the king’s birthday. YUN truly hardly showed any expression on his face.

But now, look at him. It’s like a completely 180. It’s obvious to anyone with eyes and enough observation ability to see the reason behind that.

He walked towards the other. They were currently at the studio of team Celestia. Because of the constant promotional videos that Song Liuli and Li Xu Min shot, their team decided to have their own studio where they could set different settings that would match whatever they were filming.

Of course, it cost money. They had to pay the game itself so they could program that kind of studio into the game. The team didn’t have that much budget at first, so the five of them – the main members who established the team – pooled in money. Zhong Hui, being the richest, gave more money.

It’s probably the best decision they made for the team.

In just a year, they managed to get back the money they used to build the studio. And now, they’re only earning more money from it.

YUN was currently alone now because Noctis was trying different costumes that would fit the narrative of the promotional video they would record. And he had been exuding this dangerous atmosphere around him. That’s why the other members of the team that was there to help couldn’t approach the other.

“You don’t have to worry so much, you know,” Duan Yu said the moment he stood beside YUN.

Shen Ji Yun, who was still sulking – just a tad bit, only gave Uriel a sideway glance before he continued brooding. He had read the script for this promotional video.

It’s a simple script where a girl was waiting inside a coffee shop for her date. There would be a lot of things in the middle that would feature the coffee shop. Then, at the end, her date would appear and they would sit opposite each other, enjoying drinks and desserts from the shop.

It’s a very straightforward script. Something Shen Ji Yun shouldn’t take issue with since there wasn’t really anything worth being jealous over. But, for the life of him, he just couldn’t.

Just the thought of watching Luo Yan played pretend boyfriend with some other person was already making him angry and annoyed.

He knew it was immature. But he still couldn’t stop himself. He just found out now that his jealousy became even more intense compared to before. Was it because they were now in an official relationship?

In any case, no matter the reason, it was still immature and childish. He just hope that Luo Yan wouldn’t hate him for being like this.

“What I meant was, you don’t need to be jealous of Li Li.”

When Uriel suddenly added that, Shen Ji Yun had no choice but to turn to the other. He’s not so dense as to not understand that this guy had probably already noticed that he and Luo Yan was in a relationship.

He felt his whole body tighten. If it was this guy, Shen Ji Yun wouldn’t put it pass him to use that information to blackmail him and Luo Yan. He didn’t mind if their relationship would be revealed to the public. But he was certainly worried of the backlash they would receive. Not for him, but for Luo Yan.

“I don’t know what you mean,” he could only say while glaring coldly at the other.

Duan Yu raised his hands as if in defeat and smiled helplessly. “Hey, no matter how badly you think of me, I’m not the type to reveal people’s private relationship to others. I’m not even judging you and Noctis for being together that way.” And that was true. How could he when one of his good friends was also in love with the same sex? “I only said what I said to relieve you from your sulking.”

Shen Ji Yun observed the other. For some reason, he didn’t feel like Uriel was lying. As weird as that might sound, considering the other’s personality. But maybe he misjudged him in some way.

“I’ll take your word for it. For now, at least,” he said. But that didn’t mean that he would fully trust the other. “And I’m not sulking.”

Duan Yu chuckled. Who would have thought that team Yunyue’s captain actually had this side? Maybe it’s Noctis’ influence? Anyway, the fact that the two of them were really together was definitely a huge surprise.

If he didn’t see how the two interacted today, his first reaction knowing about their relationship was ‘huh?’. But since he had already seen how they act with one another, it didn’t even surprise him at all. It’s like a natural turn of events. In fact, it would even be more surprising if the two were actually not in a relationship.

That’s just how natural the two looked together. People wouldn’t take problems with them being of the same sex. The first thing that would cross people’s mind was ‘ah, yes, they should be together’.

Maybe he should tell Zhong Hui to get some good advice from the two. Then, maybe the other could finally have a headway on his feelings for Li Xu Min.

“Brother YUN!”

Noctis voice called from behind them.
