THE day ended with the group of six touring almost half of T University.When the clock struck five, Luo Ren decided that it’s time for them to go home.Luo Yan had no objection.After all, he already accomplished the reason why he went here in the first place.The others also had no opinion.The only one who looked like he still didn’t want to go home was Luo Jin.Knowing him, he probably just wanted to spend more time with Su Yuqi. But being the tsundere that he was, of course, he wouldn’t admit that outright even if someone called him out to it.

  But because Luo Yan was in a pretty good mood, he decided to help his little brother out.

  "Sister Yuqi, Brother Ji Yun, why don’t the two of you have dinner back with us?" he asked.

  Luo Jin who looked a bit disappointed earlier when Luo Ren said that they should go home suddenly perked up.Like the cloud of gloom surrounding him just cleared and it became sunny once again.Luo Yan almost laughed seeing that reaction.

  "Yeah, good idea," Bai Ze agreed."Mom would definitely cook more than we could eat anyway."

  "I don’t mind," Su Yuqi said.

  During this time of the year, their house was always filled with people – relatives and family friends alike.She was always constantly irritated because of that.Not because he hated people but because they kept on nagging her about almost everything.From the way she dressed and present herself to her non-existent romantic relationship.The first one, she didn’t mind that much.But the latter was a different matter altogether.Those people always wanted to match her with some guy they knew.Telling her that she’s not that young anymore and she should try to start looking for her other half.

  Not that young?She’s only freaking 20!She hadn’t even graduated from university yet.Did they want her to get married this early?

  Most of those people were from the same generation as her grandparents.So, they were also pretty old-fashioned.They pretty much believed that women would only be considered as accomplished if they married into a good family and had children of their own.

  It was something Su Yuqi never agreed with.What, were women a different species from men?Men, women, they were all humans.So, distinctions between genders should not exist in the first place.When you put the two into two different boxes, then that’s when discrimination happened.Something that this country had loads in spades.

  "Sorry, I think I’ll go home.I forgot that there’s something I needed to do," Shen Ji Yun said.

  Luo Jin who was just celebrating internally because Su Yuqi agreed to going back with them felt weird when he heard Shen Ji Yun’s answer.Because he was sure that this guy would go with them.Did he eat something bad or did he just hit his head?

  Luo Yan was also surprised to hear that Shen Ji Yun was not going with them.When he turned his gaze to him, the other quickly turned his gaze away.Which annoyed Luo Yan more than it should.Ever since they left the Department of Computer Science and Technology’s rooftop building, Shen Ji Yun had been acting weird.He never looked in his direction, not even once.He was also walking pretty far away from him.It was pretty obvious that he was trying hard not to get close to him.

  Luo Yan already had a guess on the reason why Shen Ji Yun was acting that way.It’s most likely due to what happened at the rooftop earlier.Or most accurately, to what he did.Well, any normal guy who was suddenly hugged and got his chin bitten by another boy would probably react the same way.

  He sighed.Should he have not done that?But there wasn’t any other way in which he could verify if he really was attracted to Shen Ji Yun in that way.And this was the result of that.Shen Ji Yun was probably thinking that he’s a pervert.If this was what it’s going to come to, he’d rather not have done it.What would he do if he was proven right anyway?Would he go and chase after Shen Ji Yun?Confess his feelings to him?And then what?

  He didn’t mind falling for a guy.For him, it would be a miracle if he could even find someone he could fall in love with.So, if it’s a girl or a boy, it wouldn’t have that much difference to him.But it might not be the same for Shen Ji Yun.Just now, he only hugged him and bit his chin, but he was already acting weird.What more would it be if Luo Yan confessed to him or something?

  Not that he would, since he’s also not even sure what he truly felt for the guy.He was just talking hypothetically.But if he did end up falling for Shen Ji Yun, knowing himself, there’s a high chance that he’d definitely chase him.When that happened, a lot of complications would certainly arise from that.There’s his family who would probably have a heart attack after learning that the most precious member of their family turned out to be gay.The people around him who would definitely judge him for his s.e.x.u.a.lity.And then, there’s Shen Ji Yun himself.

  Knowing how much his family loved him, they would definitely not disown him just because of that.Luo Yan also didn’t care about what people would say about him.What he was most worried would be Shen Ji Yun’s reaction.It was fine if he only rejected him.But what if the friendship that they built also crumbled because of that?That’s one thing Luo Yan didn’t want to happen.

  Wait- why was he even thinking of these things as if it was already a given fact that he would fall for Shen Ji Yun?He shook his head hard and completely erased those weird thoughts.

  "But your car is still back in the house," Bai Ze said, reminding Shen Ji Yun.

  "I’m sure Shen Ji Yun could just send someone to take it back," Luo Ren said."Am I right?"

  Shen Ji Yun nodded."Then I’ll go ahead."

  He was about to walk when he heard Luo Yan called him.

  "Take care on your way, Brother Ji Yun!"

  Shen Ji Yun only raised his hand to wave without looking back.He needed to go back home quickly.And then search for the name of this unknown emotion that the rabbit awakened inside him.

  The internet would probably have an answer for this.If that didn’t work, then he would just ask his uncle straight up.Surely, a man his of age and experience would have an answer.

  With those thoughts in mind, he walked even faster.
