Chapter 840: A LESSON TAUGHT AND (HOPEFULLY) LEARNED

“YAN YAN, do you already have plans for your birthday this Friday?”

Luo Yan glanced at Yu Jiao sitting beside him. They were currently at the restaurant where they usually ate lunch. Luo Jin was sitting in front of them. Because of her question, Luo Yan couldn’t help but remember the conversation he had with Bai Ze and Shen Ji Yun yesterday. When the three of them were on their way to register for the Arcadia Cup.

=====

“Xiao Yan, your birthday is on Friday, right?” Bai Ze asked. “I heard my Dad said that Uncle Tian is not planning to hold a party for you, is it true?”

“Yeah, I requested it. We’ll have a simple family dinner,” Luo Yan answered.

“Why? I thought there would be a party this weekend. Xiao Ye and I are really looking forward to visiting you and the others,” Bai Ze said referring to his younger brother.

Luo Yan smiled at his cousin. “I’m not really fond of parties. It’s enough that I can spend time with the people important to me. Besides, most of the people who would come to that party wouldn’t come because of me. The only reason they would attend the party is because of my father. Might as well just have a family dinner. That way, it will be less of a hassle.”

“I know what you mean. I’m just a bit disappointed. I thought we could have a little family reunion this weekend,” Bai Ze said, a clear look of disappointment appeared on his face.

“Don’t worry, Brother Ze. Isn’t the winter vacation next month? I’ll ask Dad if I can spend the winter vacation at B City. Ah Jin will definitely go as well. Although Dad and Brother can’t join us because of their work, they will definitely be there during Lunar New Year,” Luo Yan said, reassuring the other.

Bai Ze’s face brightened. The expression on his face was clearly saying, ‘why didn’t I thin of that?’. “That’s right. Winter vacation is already next month. Then there’s also the Lunar New Year. Now I suddenly couldn’t wait for next month to come.”

Luo Yan chuckled seeing Bai Ze like this. In a way, the other was very similar to Luo Jin. In that, it was easy to make him happy. The only difference was the way they showed it. Luo Jin being a certified tsundere, wouldn’t directly show his happiness. But Bai Ze was very straightforward with his.

“Brother, my birthday will come first, so don’t forget it,” he teased.

“Hey, you don’t have to worry about that, Xiao Yan. I’ve already prepared your gift. It will definitely arrive at your house by Friday,” Bai Ze said before turning to Shen Ji Yun. “How about you, Ji Yun, have you already prepared a gift for Xiao Yan?”

Luo Yan finally glanced at the silent Shen Ji Yun. Since leaving their headquarters, the other hadn’t said anything or participated in their conversation. Just looking at his expressionless face, one would think that he wasn’t listening to them at all. But Luo Yan knew him long enough to know that the other was definitely listening.

And seeing the sudden gleam in Shen Ji Yun’s eyes, he could tell that the other probably thought of some kind of brilliant idea. Definitely connected to Luo Yan’s birthday.

He smiled secretly. He turned to the other and said in a teasing manner, “Brother Ji Yun, if I don’t receive a gift from you, I will definitely not talk to you for a week.”

“Hear that, Ji Yun? You better prepare one if you haven’t already,” Bai Ze added, riding with Luo Yan’s teasing.

“I’ve already prepared my gift for you,” Shen Ji Yun said to Luo Yan. Although his voice was as cold as ever, his eyes were full of pampering while looking at the other.

Luo Yan only gave the other a toothy grin. As if saying, ‘yes, I never doubted that you wouldn’t’.

“Ahem. I don’t want to disturb this little moment of yours, but I still have something that I want to ask Xiao Yan,” Bai Ze said, grabbing the attention of the two.

Shen Ji Yun obviously felt shy hearing Bai Ze said that him and Luo Yan was having a moment, as evidence of his ear tips turning red. Luo Yan chuckled when he saw this and then he turned to his cousin.

“What is it?” he asked.

“I heard that you four will go to Hunan province this weekend,” Bai Ze started. “May I ask why? I only heard that part and wasn’t able to hear the rest.”

Luo Yan looked at Bai Ze. This cousin of his most likely eavesdropped to the conversation between his father and Uncle Chen that’s why the other didn’t know the full detail of their trip this weekend.

“We’re going to an orphanage there. I’m planning to donate to them the money that I earned from my pavilion,” he said.

Bai Ze didn’t seem to expect such an answer. Then to Luo Yan’s surprise, the other suddenly reached out his hand and ruffled his hair.

“As expected, our Xiao Yan is so kind,” Bai Ze said.

Luo Yan quickly dodged his cousin’s hand. “Brother Ze–!” he said, full of complaint while combing his hair back to normal.

“What’s the name of the orphanage?”

Luo Yan turned to Shen Ji Yun when he heard that question. His eyes were full of deep meaning as he looked at the other. At the end, he only smiled and answered;

“Xiao Xiang Orphanage.”

=====

Since Shen Ji Yun asked that question, Luo Yan already had a guess in his mind that the other would most likely appear at Hunan province this weekend. Just like he did when they went to Chengdu.

But unlike that time, Luo Yan was confident that Shen Ji Yun would tell him directly about it some time this coming weekday.

After all, he already taught the other a lesson about suddenly appearing without prior notice. Surely, Shen Ji Yun wouldn’t make himself appear like a stalker again.
