The Return Of The God Level Assassin - Chapter 1095: OLD TEAM YUNYUE HAVING LUNCH (II)

ALL the people at the table turned to look at him, all having different expressions on their faces. Shen Ji Yun had his signature cold look, but with a raised brow, as if saying ‘are you serious?’. He Yu Lan only shook his head while Wu Xiang Ye looked at him in disbelief. Su Yuqi, on the other hand, was smiling. But that smile didn’t reach her eyes, so, with that face of hers, it looked more like she was threatening him.

“What? Did I say anything wrong?” Bai Ze asked, feeling that the situation was a bit incredulous. “The only type of people who would like Su Yuqi are masochists. And my cousin is definitely not one.”

“Say one more thing and I will kick you off your chair and stuff your mouth with chilli peppers,” Su Yuqi said in a soft voice, but one could tell that she’s definitely being serious.

Bai Ze swallowed, and he unconsciously moved his body to the left. Su Yuqi was sitting on his right, so her threat seemed quite plausible. And knowing the other, he had no doubt that she would really do that.

Wu Xiang Ye suddenly laughed out loud. Watching the two bicker was always great fun. “You know, there was a time when I thought you two would end up together.”

Bai Ze showed a horrified look. “Mother of mercy, anything but that! I wouldn’t put myself to such suffering.”

Su Yuqi’s face contorted with disgust. “I have great taste, thank you. I’d rather remain single my whole life than let that happen.”

That made Wu Xiang Ye laughed again. Then he went back to the topic they were talking about just now, asking Bai Ze, “But Ah Ze, why do you think it’s not possible for Xiao Jin to like Xiao Qi? Is there any instances that showed otherwise?”

Bai Ze was ready to give all the evidence he could, but the moment he thought back to all his memories involving the two, he truly couldn’t find anything. Instead, all that flashed in his mind was how the two got along really well. How Luo Jin would sometimes blush whenever Su Yuqi would do or say something. How Su Yuqi’s attitude seemed a bit softer around Luo Jin.

Bai Ze also remembered how his cousin would sometimes steal glances at Su Yuqi whenever he thought no one was looking. Not to mention, all the times Luo Jin would pick Su Yuqi’s side instead of his whenever the two of them were fighting. And whenever their team had to do something in groups of two, Luo Jin would always try to be partnered up with Su Yuqi. A good example was the decorating they did at Yuexing Pavilion early in the morning.

Enlightenment finally came to Bai Ze. How could he be so blind? No, was he really just insensitibe when it came to romance? Was that why he was still a single dog up until now?

It’s not that he had never noticed these things before. It’s just that whenever he did, and when it seemed like he was about to realize the truth, something would happen that would take his attention away and he would just conveniently forget about it.

Once the realization started, it finally registered in his brain.

Holy shit! It seemed that his cousin really liked Su Yuqi! What kind of tragedy was this?

Bai Ze looked at Su Yuqi as if she was a criminal. “You- you cradle robber!”

Su Yuqi finally couldn’t take it and kicked Bai Ze’s chair. What ‘craddle robble’? She’s only three and a half years older than Luo Jin. He’s talking as if she was 10 years older or something.

Since it was a kick full of force, Bai Ze was about to topple over. Good thing Shen Ji Yun, sitting at the head of the table, managed to quickly steady Bai Ze’s chair, who was sitting on his right.

Bai Ze glared angrily at Su Yuqi. “I almost fell! Are you really planning to send me to the hospital?”

Su Yuqi rolled his eyes at him. “I wish.”

“You–!”

“Okay. Let’s not fight. It’s a great disrespect to the delicious meal Xiao Yun cooked for us,” He Yu Lan said, stopping the two from bickering.

Both Bai Ze and Su Yuqi stayed silent, like children who had just been scolded by their mother.

But even with that, Bai Ze was still having an inner struggle. Full of disbelief that Luo Jin actually liked Su Yuqi.

Wait- if his cousin and Su Yuqi actually ended up together, then he would be the only single person on the team. No, there’s something worse than that. If the two got married, he would be related to Su Yuqi by law!

What kind of disaster was this?

———

Luo Yan knocked on the door of Luo Jin’s room. He just received a message from Shen Ji Yun, asking him if it was alright to video call him now. He didn’t reply immediately and instead he went to find Luo Jin. After all, Luo Jin was also a member of team Yunyue. He should also be there for this video call.

“Yan? Do you need something?” Luo Jin asked when he opened the door and saw his brother.

“I’m going to video call with Brother Ji Yun,” Luo Yan started, in which Luo Jin tilted his head as if asking ‘what does that have to do with me?’. “He’s with the other members of our team, as well as Brother Xiang Ye and Brother Yu Lan. Don’t you want to talk to them?”

Luo Jin’s initial thought was ‘not really’. But then he remembered that Su Yuqi must also be there. So, he quickly change his mind and said, “Sure.”

Luo Yan walked into his brother’s room and sat down on the bed. Luo Jin did the same and sat down beside him. He didn’t send a message to Shen Ji Yun and just call the other directly.

The video call instantly connected within a few seconds, and Shen Ji Yun’s handsome face appeared on the phone’s screen.
