Chapter 898: EVIDENCE
LUO REN lifted up the cup of tea in front of him and took a sip. "Good tea."
He then looked at the young man in front of him. The other had a stiff expression or maybe he was just imagining it because of how rigid he was sitting. It's really hard to tell what the other was thinking because of that expressionless face.
Before coming here, Luo Yan told him not to be mean to Shen Ji Yun. He didn't answer and just smiled. Because if he couldn't be mean towards the other, wouldn't this meeting lose its meaning?
Seriously, the more he looked at Shen Ji Yun, the more he wondered why Luo Yan liked this guy so much. The two of them were complete opposites in terms of personality. The only thing they had in common was their love for this game. But was that really even enough? He felt like his brother was scammed or something.
But then again, if Luo Ren was using that logic, then wouldn't he had to admit that he and Yu Jiao were also not compatible? The two of them were as opposite as opposite could be. They didn't even have anything in common. So, wouldn't that mean that they were a worse pairing than Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun?
That's like shooting himself on the foot. That's why he erased that kind of thinking in his mind. Since Luo Yan had already fallen for the guy, nothing would happen even if he questioned it.
But that didn't mean that he would just left it alone. Wasn't that the reason why he's here?
"Yan Yan had probably already told you that I already know about his relationship with you," Luo Ren started.
"Yes," Shen Ji Yun responded in a subdued voice.
"Don't worry, I won't tell you to separate. It's not my call anyway. Yan Yan will also hate it if I do that," Luo Ren said. "But that didn't mean that I approve of this relationship. That's why I'm in a bind, you see? Since I can't separate you two and yet I still want to test your feelings for my brother. So, do you have any suggestion of what I should do?"
Shen Ji Yun gulped. His brain felt like it was slowly turning into jelly. It's because he'd been so nervous since earlier. He had only became more nervous as the silence between them continued. Even more so after Luo Ren started speaking. And now, that the other suddenly asked him this question, he couldn't think properly and just froze up.
"Hmm... don't you have any ideas to share?" Luo Ren asked after not hearing his response.
"You can beat me up and I won't fight back."
After Shen Ji Yun said that, he realized how silly it was. He only said it because he'd been thinking about how Luo Ren would beat him up the moment they met. When the other suddenly laughed, he could feel his whole face heating up due to embarrassment.
Luo Ren didn't expect the other would actually suggest that he should beat him. That's why he unconsciously laughed. Then, realizing how unseemly of him that was, he cleared his throat to stop himself from laughing.
"Don't you think that would defeat the purpose since you won't really feel pain even if I kill you in this game?" he said.
[So, are you saying you want to kill me?] – Shen Ji Yun thought.
His plan today was just to pour his heart out. You know, tell the other honestly just how much he loved Luo Yan and that he would never ever hurt him. But it seemed that what Luo Ren wanted was an immediate result. Something that could prove his feelings for Luo Yan.
But what could he do to give the other that? No matter how much he thought about it, he really couldn't think of anything.
"What, don't you have any ideas?" Luo Ren asked. "I thought you're smart."
Shen Ji Yun was having that imaginary cold sweat again. He couldn't just remain silent or else this meeting would never have an end. He decided just to be honest just how he initially planned.
"I honestly don't know what you wanted me to do," he said. "What I can only do now is to tell you just how much I love Yan Yan. These words are probably not enough for you. But this is all I can give for now. That and the promise that I won't ever hurt him."
Luo Ren stared at the young man sitting in front of him. Despite the still expressionless face, Shen Ji Yun's eyes were raging with fire. Even if he didn't want to admit it, he could see that he truly meant what he just said.
If he was Luo Jin, that would probably be enough and he would just let things be after telling him a few threats. But since he wasn't his youngest brother, of course, this wouldn't be enough.
"I do believe that you love my brother. At least you do right now. But what would happen if your feelings change in the future? I want a concrete evidence that says that you're willing to be punished if that ever happened."
Shen Ji Yun showed a very confused expression. "What kind of evidence would you need?"
Luo Ren smiled evilly and somehow Shen Ji Yun felt goosebumps all over.

And that night, a certain video was continuously playing all throughout Arcadia for hours. It was of YUN looking straight at the camera with a very serious expression.
"Hello to everyone in Arcadia, this is YUN. I'm currently in a relationship right now and very much in love with my partner. I promise to love, protect, and cherish them for the rest of my life. If I ever break this promise, I give their family permission to... to c-cut off my li- little b-brother down there. This video is the evidence of me agreeing to that."
