The Return Of The God Level Assassin Chapter 954: NOT SO INNOCENT AFTER ALL

Chapter 954: NOT SO INNOCENT AFTER ALL

LUO YAN felt the corner of his lips twitching when he heard what his older brother said. And it's definitely not because he was amused or something. No, it's because he's on the verge of cursing!         

    

Because of the other's many missed calls, as well as his tone of voice, he really thought that something might have happened to him. Who would have thought that he was only having a 'love' emergency? Luo Yan really wanted to shout, 'give back my worry for you!'.      

He shook his head. Well, at least his brother worrying about his love life was much better than something happening to him. But that didn't mean he wouldn't get back at him for scaring him like that. Yes, he's petty that way. But he's the other's younger brother. He should be allowed to be petty sometimes.     

"Hmm... I don't know. I mean, what excuse would I say to her?" he said, acting like he was really troubled by Luo Ren's sudden request. "Wouldn't it look suspicious?"     

Luo Ren, who heard that, suddenly realized that he was really being unreasonable. No wonder his brother felt troubled. And Luo Yan also had a point. If the other suddenly told Yu Jiao that he would go to her birthday dinner, it would indeed look suspicious. He sighed heavily.     

"It's fine. Yan Yan can just ignore what I said. I'll just do something about it once I get back home."

Hearing the dejected tone of the other, it showed that his brother was really down so bad for Yu Jiao. Luo Yan asked, "But when will you go back home, Brother?"     

It's the reason why he was so scared and worried when he saw those missed calls and thought that something had happened to his brother. It's because the other was supposed to return home yesterday.      

Their father said that something happened, so his return was delayed. But what if an unforeseen accident happened? Thinking of that possibility, it's only natural for Luo Yan to react the way he did.      

"The day after tomorrow."     

After Luo Ren said that, there's silence on the other end of the phone.      

"You mean, just a day before Jiao Jiao's birthday?"     

"Yes."     

Luo Ren then heard his brother letting out a long sigh.     

"It's fine. You don't have to worry. Jiao Jiao is already expecting you to go to the birthday dinner anyway."     

This time, it was Luo Ren's turn to be speechless. "How- but- why...?"     

"I know that you would want to go. So, Dad and I kind of teamed up to convince Jiao Jiao to invite you and Dad to the dinner."     

He could understand each word Luo Yan was saying but somehow those words strewn together sounded incomprehensible to his ears. "Wait- what?"     

"Okay, it's like this. I invited Jiao Jiao to our house last Wednesday under the guise of studying. Of course, Jiao Jiao ate dinner here. I purposely opened the topic about her birthday. Dad seemed to be thinking the same thing as me. So, one thing led to another and then Jiao Jiao ended up inviting you and Dad to her birthday dinner," Luo Yan explained.     

It didn't really take that long to convince Yu Jiao since the other was already planning to invite his father and older brother. Of course, knowing her, she wasn't really expecting that the two would come, considering how busy they were with work.      

Luo Yan knew that Yu Jiao wanted the two to come. But because of her personality, she had already decided not to get her hopes up that they would. She's probably thinking that she couldn't bother them with such a thing. Which was not really a bother in Luo Yan's opinion.      

That's why when his father was the one who asked first, Yu Jiao didn't really need that much convincing and agreed with just a little push.     

Luo Ren was finally able to understand what his brother was trying to say despite the still confusing explanation. At the realization that he would be able to go to Yu Jiao's birthday dinner, happiness came in too quickly. All the worries and frustrations that he just felt disappeared in an instant.      

While he was basking in that joy, he suddenly remembered how Luo Yan felt 'troubled' by his request earlier. He narrowed his eyes. This kid, he was definitely trolling him just now.      

"Yan Yan, then why did you act earlier like you wouldn't be able to convince Jiao Jiao to invite me?"     

Luo Yan almost blurted 'oops' when he heard that. "It's Brother's fault for making me worry. I was only planning to tease you a bit to get back at you," he said with a pout.         

    

He was actually planning to let the other stew for a day before telling him the truth. But when he found out that Luo Ren would only be able to return home a day before Yu Jiao's birthday, he felt guilty and decided to just come clean.     

"Yan Yan, are you actually gaslighting me right now?"     

"What gaslighting? Brother, how can you think of me that way?" Luo Yan said in a dramatic voice.     

Luo Ren pinched the bridge of his forehead. If this was a video call, Luo Yan would probably be acting like he was about to cry. And he would definitely forgive him after seeing that. No, even now with only the other's voice, he was already about to do just that.     

It's probably time to admit that this younger brother of his was really not cute, innocent boy he imagined him to be. He probably should have long realized that. Anyway, even if that's the case, it's not as if his love for Luo Yan would change. As an older brother, he should just learn to accept him as he was.     

Luo Ren sighed. "Just go to sleep."     

"You're not angry anymore?" Luo Yan asked in a puppy like voice.     

"When did I ever get angry at you?"     

Luo Yan chuckled. "I knew it, you're really the best, Brother!"     

Luo Ren could only shook his head in helplessness as he said goodbye to the other.
