Chapter 972: LOVER
THEY finished discussing the different teams they might face during the Arcadia Cup by lunch. But because they only did a simple discussion, not an in-depth one, they decided to continue on in the afternoon.
Luo Yan stared at the sumptuous dishes on the table. There were mandus like steamed dumplings and siu mai, a ton of friend rice, sweet and sour pork, chow mein, and even hot and sour soup. It"s like a total feast.
He turned to Uncle Yue. "Uncle Yue, you made so many. Can we eat all of these?"
He actually wanted to say that the other shouldn"t have bothered. They could just order from a delivery app or something.
"I think we can manage," Jiang Yue said. "And oh, Xiao Yun was the one who made these dishes. I just reheat them."
Shocked, Luo Yan turned to Shen Ji Yun. "Brother Ji Yun, you..."
The other turned his gaze away, scratching his cheek in an embarra.s.sed manner. "I just had a lot of time this morning."
Luo Yan chuckled at that. Yeah, right. He must have prepared all this because they would be coming here today. No, more accurately, Shen Ji Yun prepared this because of him.
A warm feeling spread through his heart at that thought. Since the two of them were standing really close, it was easy for him to link his pinky finger with the other. Shen Ji Yun seemed to be startled at first, but then he quickly grabbed his hand and intertwined their fingers together.
The other looked down, and he also looked up. Their gazes met, and it seemed like they were conversing with just their eyes.
"Did you cook these dishes for me?"
"Who else would I do it for, if not for you?"
"Hey, Ji Yun, why don"t you prepare food for me whenever I visit here?"
Bai Ze"s voice interrupted the bubbling pink bubbles surrounding the two.
Shen Ji Yun, annoyed by the interruption, just gave a side glance towards Bai Ze. As if saying, "Why would I cook for you? Are you Yan Yan?".
Receiving the message clearly from those blue eyes, Bai Ze felt like he was just ridiculed for being a single dog.
Luo Yan could only shake his head. He said to end the discussion, "Let"s eat?"
Finally, the six of them sat down around the table and started eating.
Knowing that the food here was made by Shen Ji Yun, Luo Jin was feeling very reluctant to eat. But then, he remembered how good the macaron that the other baked back at the orphanage was, and he unknowingly salivated. Which annoyed him even more.
He just picked up a dimsum with his chopsticks and ate it. The moment he did, the delicious taste of the dimsum exploded in his mouth. And his first thought was, "how can this be so delicious?".
Unknowingly, he ate more and more. Then, he noticed that Su Yuqi was also eating with gusto. A sudden thought entered his mind then.
[Should I also learn how to cook?]
Luo Yan was also enjoying the food in front of him very much. Just like he thought, living with Shen Ji Yun in the future would definitely turn him into a little pig. That"s just how good the other"s cooking skill was.
"This is so delicious, Brother Ji Yun," he said to Shen Ji Yun sitting beside him.
A small smile of satisfaction appeared on Shen Ji Yun"s lips. "I"m glad you liked it."
Luo Yan leaned a bit towards the other and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "You know, if you keep cooking like this, I might just have to propose."
Shen Ji Yun, who just ate a piece of pork, almost choked on the meat because of what Luo Yan said. It"s good that he managed to quickly reach for the gla.s.s of water. Or else, that piece of pork might have really gone into the wrong pipe.
Still, the damage had been done and he still couldn"t stop coughing uncontrollably.
"Xiao Yun, are you alright?" Uncle Yue asked worriedly.
"Y-yes," he said. Then he suddenly felt a warm hand behind his back, trying to ease the choking sensation.
Shen Ji Yun glanced at Luo Yan and the other only smiled at him teasingly.
Seriously, this little fox.
And yet, just like always, he couldn"t bear to be angry at this fox cosplaying as a rabbit.
After they finished eating lunch, Bai Ze, who was ready to continue their meeting, suddenly thought of something that he probably should have asked since, well, they arrived earlier.
"Ahm, by the way, are you Ji Yun"s uncle?" he asked the pretty, mature man who welcomed them when they arrived and also ate lunch with them.
He heard Luo Yan call the other "Uncle Yue". So, he just a.s.sumed that he must be Shen Ji Yun"s uncle or something. It"s just weird that he didn"t know who the other was, considering that he"s Shen Ji Yun"s closest friend. Although the man looked a bit familiar. So, he might have seen him somewhere. He just couldn"t remember.
Jiang Yue was a bit startled by the question. And then, he remembered that he hadn"t introduced himself to Xiao Yun"s friends. He just completely forgot about it because of the presence of the Luo brothers who already knew him.
But now that he had to introduce himself, he suddenly didn"t know how. What should he say about himself, exactly? Would saying his name be enough?
"Ah, I am—"
Before he could finish what he was about to say, a voice suddenly did it for him.
"He"s my lover."
And then the owner of that voice put his arm around Jiang Yue"s shoulders, even pulling the other close to him.
Jiang Yue was completely startled. He looked up and saw Shen Yi Mu"s handsome face.
"Brother Mu..." he called in a rather scolding tone. As if telling the other that he should not have directly told the kids that.
And Shen Yi Mu only smiled.
