Chapter 910: AT THE SKY RAILWAY

SHEN JI YUN had also noticed the people's gaze on Luo Yan as they walked towards the train. He had this urge to shield his rabbit away from all this prying gaze. But the only way he could do that was to cover Luo Yan's head with his coat and hugged him all the way to the train.

But he knew Luo Yan wouldn't want that. So, all he could do was to listen to their whispers to know why they were looking at Luo Yan like that.

"That's Noctis, right? Waa... how can he be so handsome?" a girl who was nearby them said to her companion.

"Handsome? I think 'beautiful' is the right term," her companion said. "But have you seen that promotional video with him and Goddess Liuli?"

"I did! It's such a visual explosion, I almost couldn't take my eyes off the video."

"Right? I couldn't even imagine that the two of them would make such a promotional video. Do you think they know each other in real life?"

"There's a possibility. But you know, while I was watching that promotional video, I couldn't help but feel that the two of them kind of suits each other. Like, you know, a pretty girl and a pretty boy."

"I actually kind of feel that way too even though I'm a solid NightCloud shipper."

"Hey, YUN already have a partner. I think it's a bit disrespectful to still ship him with another person."

"Yeah, you're right."

"So, why don't we ship Noctis with goddess Liuli?"

"Nah, if we do, we'll have to fight those who ship Liuli with Xu Min. And they're quite a terrifying bunch, you know?"

"Yeah, they really are quite scary. Let's just do it in secret then."

"Well, if we're going to do it in secret, then I'll still rather ship Noctis with YUN."

As Shen Ji Yun listened to the conversation of the two, his frown increasingly deepened. It only loosened a bit when he heard one of the two saying that she would secretly ship Luo Yan and him.

Anyway, the gist of their conversation was basically about that promotional video. He had almost forgotten that it would air today. That video was most likely the reason why these people were looking at Luo Yan that way.

Of course, if he had noticed, his rabbit would too.

"Oh, so it was because of the promotional video," Luo Yan said. "And here I thought it was because I became prettier."

Shen Ji Yun almost tripped on his feet when he heard that. He glanced at Luo Yan and saw the disappointment on the other's face. It's like he truly preferred it if the people were staring at him because he became much prettier rather than some other facts or the other.

Shen Ji Yun smiled subconsciously. Then he leaned to the other and whispered, "You always look prettier every time I look at you."

Luo Yan glanced at the other and then smiled. "Oh, you. That hidden Casanova side of yours is showing again."

Shen Ji Yun blinked, seemingly unable to understand what he meant by that. "Casanova—?"

"Knowing you, you probably wouldn't have noticed this, but from time to time, you would say these amazingly flirtatious lines to me," Luo Yan said in a teasing tone. "Like what you did just now, for example."

Shen Ji Yun's face quickly turned red. "I- I didn't say it with the thought of f-flirting with you."

Luo Yan smiled. "I know. And that's what makes you so adorable."

He tapped the other's cheek before stepping inside the train. Shen Ji Yun quickly followed.

The interior of the train was like that of trains in the early 1900s. It had a vintage feel with a bit of modern touch here and there. Their train cabin was on the VVIP area which was at the very front.

The two of them walked towards that direction. It didn't take long before they arrived at the cabin they reserved. It was a pretty big cabin that could probably sit in six people.

The inside of the cabin had two velvet couches facing one another. At the middle of them was glass table. On four sides of the cabin was a beautifully designed glass lamps. Luo Yan quickly sat down on one of the couches. Shen Ji Yun then sat beside him.

"Have you been to Yule Island, Brother Ji Yun?" Luo Yan asked.

"I haven't actually."

Luo Yan turned to the other. "But it's been here since the VR version was released. You had never thought of visiting, not even once?"

"No," Shen Ji Yun said, shaking his head. "I- I actually don't like Christmas that much."

"May I ask why?"

Shen Ji Yun suddenly became silent before looking outside the window. "Well, I don't really have any good memory of it."

Now, it was Luo Yan's turn to be silent. He suddenly remembered that Shen Ji Yun's mother was British. She's from a country that considered Christmas as a public holiday. Shen Ji Yun must have had an experience of celebrating Christmas there.

Now, Luo Yan was suddenly reminded of the times the other had this sad and solemn expression every time something about his parents was mentioned. During those times, he truly wanted to ask Shen Ji Yun what made him so sad. But he always stopped himself. Because it felt like he was stepping out of line.

But now that the two of them were finally together, that line had now started to blur. As if it would no longer feel so wrong if he stepped over that line.

He held Shen Ji Yun's hand. "Can you tell me why?"

Shen Ji Yun returned to his senses when he heard Luo Yan's question. He looked at the other. He could see Luo Yan's eyes filled with worry over him. He stopped. Shen Ji Yun truly didn't know how he should answer that.

Should he tell the truth or should he just gloss over it?

Before he could even think of an answer, his heart had already made a decision for him.
