The Return Of The God Level Assassin (WN)-Chapter 1116 YOU’RE A GENIUS

1116 YOU'RE A GENIUS

"OUR school's graduation is this coming Saturday," Luo Yan said, answering Shen Ji Yun's question. "You don't think it would overlap with the schedule of the final tournament, right?"

"I don't think so. Remember, Uncle said that the final tournament will be on the third week of June?"

Luo Yan slapped his forehead as if he had only remembered that now. "Ah, right. Uncle Yi Mu did mention that. If the five-day schedule stays the same, then the final tournament would be just over a week away from now. Aren't you excited, Brother Ji Yun?"

Shen Ji Yun placed his head in the nook of Luo Yan's shoulder and nodded as he snuggled closer. "Yes."

Luo Yan continued to talk about the final tournament, but Shen Ji Yun was only half listening. It's because his mind was currently thinking of ways on how he could go to Luo Yan's graduation.

The biggest hurdle in this was going there without making Uncle Tian suspicious. He felt like he had already used all excuses he could come up with during that time when he accompanied the Luo family to Luo Yan's birthday trip. If he used the same excuses he gave back then, Uncle Tian would definitely know something was amiss.

Being as successful as Uncle Tian, it was definitely easy for him to piece everything together. The only reason he hadn't done so yet was because he viewed Luo Yan through colored lenses. But once he sensed that something was wrong, it would be easy for him to uncover the truth.

"Brother Ji Yun, you're not listening, are you?"

Luo Yan's voice pulled him back from his thoughts. "I'm listening. Didn't you just say that you can't wait to fight other strong teams, especially the current top four?"

Although he was only half-listening and his thoughts were wandering, it didn't mean that he wasn't paying attention.

Luo Yan was actually quite surprised when Shen Ji Yun got it right. Because he was so sure that the other was not listening to him. "Wow. And here I thought you were just pretending to listen but were really just interested in snuggling up to me."

"Well, there is also that," Shen Ji Yun said, while nuzzling his nose at Luo Yan's cheek. "And the fact that your voice is my favorite sound in the world. So there's no way I won't listen when you speak."

Luo Yan chuckled. "You and your smooth tongue."

"Only when it comes to you."

"It better be," Luo Yan said. Then, he slightly turned his body to look at Shen Ji Yun. "But seriously, Brother Ji Yun, what's bothering you?"

Even if Shen Ji Yun seemed to be listening to him, it was still obvious that his mind was somewhere else. It's not something that really happened when they were together. Since, most of the time, Shen Ji Yun's attention was always focused on him. That's why it was even more noticeable when he was thinking of something else.

"And don't say it's nothing," Luo Yan added. "Aren't we in a relationship where there's no need to hide our concerns from each other? So, if something's bothering you, I want to know. Maybe I can help."

Shen Ji Yun sighed. Truthfully, he didn't want to bother Luo Yan with this certain 'problem'. Many would think that it was just useless worry and not worth getting worked up over. But to Shen Ji Yun, it was very important.

He gazed down at Luo Yan. The other was looking straight at him with those beautiful peach blossom eyes. It's hard to hide something when one's boyfriend was this perceptive.

So, at the end, he had no choice but to tell Luo Yan about his worries. Specifically, about how he could go to his graduation without Uncle Tian being suspicious of him.

Luo Yan didn't expect that this was what's bothering Shen Ji Yun. It was both amusing and endearing. Really, what an adorable guy.

"Brother Ji Yun, although I understand your worries, it's fine if you don't go. Of course, I'll be happy if you're there during my graduation. But I wouldn't be upset if you're not," Luo Yan explained first. "We can just celebrate here. Like today."

"I know. But... it's your high school graduation, something that's going to happen only once. I just... I just want to be there."

Seeing the gloomy expression on Shen Ji Yun's handsome face, Luo Yan felt compelled to help. How could he not when this cinnamon roll literally looked like a downcast puppy at this moment?

"If Brother Ji Yun really wants to go, then you can just bring Brother Ze," he suggested.

With Bai Ze accompanying Shen Ji Yun, the former could act like some sort of smokescreen to prevent his father from suspecting anything. Although he felt kind of guilty fooling his father like this, it's just, it's not the right time for the other to know about his relationship with Shen Ji Yun.

That time would surely come. Maybe sooner rather than later. But definitely not now. And when it happened, he would do everything to make it up to his father. Except breaking up with Shen Ji Yun, of course.

Shen Ji Yun's expression suddenly brightened when he heard that. "Right, there's still Bai Ze. Why didn't I think of that?" He gazed down with a happy smile. "You're a genius, Yan Yan!"

Luo Yan let out a soft laugh because of Shen Ji Yun's reaction. "I do try sometimes."

"Not just sometimes. You're a genius every day!"

With his problem solved like this, Shen Ji Yun felt like all the dark clouds hovering over him had just cleared. Bringing Bai Ze along was just perfect.

The two continued talking, mostly about the questions asked in the college entrance exam. And cuddled and flirted with each other even more.

After that, they gathered all the members of the team, including Yu Jiao, for a small celebration at their headquarters to congratulate Luo Yan and Yu Jiao on successfully completing their college entrance examinations.

And the next day, the official schedule of Arcadia Cup's final tournament was finally released.
