SHEN JI YUN glanced at Luo Yan's reply, and a chill of dread crept down his spine. He felt like he should clarify things right away, before any misunderstandings could arise.
YUN: [I don't want to do it, but the game imposed a rule that if I don't, points will be deducted. I can't let our team lose just because I'm too much of a prude.]
YUN: [Please, don't be mad, Yan Yan.]
Noctis: [Brother Ji Yun, I'm not upset. Do you really think I'm so petty that I'd get mad over something you couldn't even control?]
Shen Ji Yun sensed it was a trick question, so he quickly responded to avoid any possible misunderstanding.
YUN: [Of course not. You're so thoughtful. How could I ever think that?]
His uncle had once advised him that if he and Luo Yan ever found themselves arguing—or on the verge of it—he should always take the blame, no matter what. That's the secret to a long-lasting relationship.
