Chapter 848: THE MOST BEAUTIFUL

JIANG YUE actually only saw them by accident. Since the afternoon cla.s.s was already over, he was on his way back to the teacher's dormitory. But before that, he first took a parcel from the school's gate house. That's when he saw Luo Yan talking to another student near the gate.

He was quite familiar with student Luo. After all, he was the teacher that welcomed the other and President Luo when the latter enrolled Luo Yan to this school. Not only that, he sometimes encountered the other whenever he ate at the restaurant that Yuan Xing managed.

Jiang Yue was about to leave then after glancing at the two students. But something caught his eyes. Or rather, someone.

It was a tall young man wearing casual winter clothes. His black hair was a bit messy, most likely because of the wind. And he had a pair of the bluest eyes. There was no expression on his face. But the way he was looking at Luo Yan, anyone could see the happiness in his eyes.

Jiang Yue couldn't help but stare at this young man. Looking at the other, an image of a certain 13-year-old boy flashed in his mind. That boy was tall for his age but very lanky. A boy that always had no expression on his face and was indifferent to a lot of things.

The image of that boy was now overlapping with that of the young man. It might have been over seven years since Jiang Yue last saw him but he was sure that the other was Shen Ji Yun. The nephew of his former lover.

After that realization, he couldn't help but looked around. Then, he stopped, realizing just how foolish that action was. What was he expecting? That he would also see Shen Yi Mu? Would the other even be happy seeing him?

He would be glad if Shen Yi Mu would even spare him a glance. In fact, he would even accept the other's anger. That would be infinitely better than indifference. Because indifference meant apathy.

Why would he be scared of that, you ask? Because apathy meant only one thing that Shen Yi Mu had completely erased in his heart all the emotions he had felt for him.

The corner of his lips rose into a bitter smile. How hypocritical of him to even feel this way. He was the one who left the other, lying and not giving him a proper reason. He didn't even give a proper goodbye and just disappeared from his life. Shen Yi Mu had no obligation to feel anything towards him after all that.

And yet, here he was. Hoping to see the other. Hoping that Shen Yi Mu would still feel any semblance of emotions for him. He wouldn't even mind if that emotion was anger.

Pathetic, Jiang Yue. Truly pathetic.

He stared at the leaving figure of Shen Ji Yun and Luo Yan. Looking at the young man's wide back, he couldn't believe that that lanky boy had now grown this much. It almost felt like a dream.

Warmth and joy filled his heart seeing the young man again. He was glad that the other grew up healthy. Not only that, the boy who couldn't even smile properly could now freely show his happiness to another person. He was glad, really glad for that.

But what was the other doing here? And how did he know Luo Yan? He was a bit familiar with Luo Yan's situation before. Being in a coma for years and only waking up this year. He couldn't imagine how the two had any connection with each other. Especially considering how they lived in two different cities.

Could it be a connection between their families? After all, both belonged to a prominent family. But then again, an old family like the Shens would only consider the Luos as nouveau rich. Those people with eyes high up in heaven wouldn't consider the Luos as worthy of being a friend to the family.

So, again, how?

Jiang Yue shook his head. Was the how even important in this situation? No, it really wasn't. Because right now, there was only one thing in his mind. The need to confirm if Shen Ji Yun arrived in this city alone.

Or if Shen Yi Mu went with him.

The decision wasn't really that hard to make. The moment he thought of the possibility that he could see Shen Yi Mu again, a decision had already been made.

He walked to the parking lot and climbed into his car. Then, he drove out of the school gate and followed the motorcycle Shen Ji Yun was driving.

Jiang Yue held the steering wheel tightly. If, if Shen Yi Mu was really here, he would just take a peek. Yes, just a peek.

Just a peek would be enough.

Shen Ji Yun parked the motorcycle beside the car where Luo Jin and Yu Jiao was. The drive here was particularly long. Not because their destination was far but because the car they're following was a tad bit slow.

He's not complaining though. He knew that it was probably because of Luo Jin. The other was just probably making sure that he wouldn't speed up no matter what. That kid, no matter how annoying, truly cared for his brother.

He got down from the motorcycle after Luo Yan. Then, he helped the other take off the helmet he's wearing. He then only took off his helmet after that. Then he put them in the compartment under the seat.

Shen Ji Yun then suddenly noticed that Luo Yan was staring at him with stars in his eyes. "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Luo Yan only smiled. "Nope. I just thought you looked really handsome when you're removing your helmet."

Shen Ji Yun felt his face heating up at such a blatant compliment. He didn't know how to respond. So, he could only say the first thing on his mind.

"No matter what action you make, in my eyes, you remained the most beautiful."
