The Return Of The God Level Assassin (WN)-Chapter 999: TEMPLE FAIR DATE (I)

ONLY when the two of them got into the car that Luo Yan managed to ask, "Brother Ji Yun, why did you arrive here much earlier than what we talked about?"

"Well... I thought it would be better for us to go to the temple fair much earlier, considering how crowded it could be."

Shen Ji Yun looked ahead as he said that. Not only because he was the one driving, but because he also didn't want Luo Yan to see his embarrassed expression. He couldn't really say that the real reason he arrived early was because he was just too excited and ended up leaving the house too early.

He didn't want Luo Yan to think that he was worse than a teenager on his first date who couldn't even control his excitement. Even though he was exactly that. But showing that kind of image was a bit... anyway, he wanted to look cool in front of his boyfriend. So, a little white lie wouldn't hurt.

What he didn't know was that Luo Yan had already seen through him? How could he not when it was so obviously written on the other's face? Well, to most people, they probably wouldn't be able to read anything from Shen Ji Yun's face. But Luo Yan was not most people. Not only was he the other's boyfriend, he was already so in tuned to Shen Ji Yun's emotions that he would easily tell what the other was feeling just by looking at him.

Okay, so that's a bit exaggerated in a way. But the gist was the same, anyway.

He would bet that Shen Ji Yun must be too excited for today. That's why he went to the Bai family mansion this early. And that's fine. Because he also felt the same. Besides, going to the temple fair early meant that the two of them could spend more time together. Who knew when they would be able to spend time alone again like this?

Although both of them were on vacation, most of their time would definitely be spent on the qualifying matches or team meetings. It would be hard to find a time to go on a date again like this.

So, he didn't break Shen Ji Yun's obvious excuse and just said with a smile, "Quick thinking, Brother Ji Yun. Then, let's make sure to do a lot of fun things today. Let's make this day a very memorable one."

The corners of Shen Ji Yun's lips curved up when he heard that. "Yes."

Ditan Park Temple Fair, also known as the Temple of Earth Fair, was an iconic event held during the Spring Festival in B City. Located within the historic Ditan Park, the fair captured the essence of Chinese tradition and drew visitors from all walks of life. The park, adorned with traditional architecture and serene gardens, provided a picturesque setting for the festivities.

Although there were a number of temple fairs being held in B City, the one at Ditan Park remained the most popular. That's why Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun also picked this place for today's date.

Shen Ji Yun parked the car, and the two got out. Luo Yan looked ahead and was surprised to see that there were still a lot of people going to the fair. This was already the fifth day of Spring Festival. So, it's only natural to think that the number of people should have decreased. Or maybe this number was already much lesser compared to the first and second days.

He turned to Shen Ji Yun. "Let's go, Brother Ji Yun!"

Shen Ji Yun looked at Luo Yan. The other had a bright expression on his face. It was obvious by the smile that crossed his lips just how much he was looking forward to this date. This made Shen Ji Yun smile as well, in his ever-so slight way.

He walked beside Luo Yan and the two of them entered the fair amongst the sea of people.

As they entered the fair, a vibrant spectacle greeted them. Colorful lanterns swayed in the breeze, casting a warm glow on the bustling crowds. Traditional red and gold decorations adorned the temple structures, creating a festive atmosphere. The air was filled with the tantalizing aromas of street food stalls, offering a delightful array of local delicacies.

The food immediately attracted Luo Yan. Stalls adorned with colorful banners beckoned hungry visitors. From steaming bowls of noodles to fragrant roasted meat skewers, and from crispy spring rolls to sweet rice cakes, the food stalls catered to every craving.

Since the two of them hadn't had lunch yet, he pulled Shen Ji Yun to one of the stalls with the most people lined up. After all, many customers was a proof that the food must be good.

"Let's buy lunch first, then eat it before we stroll around. What do you think?" he asked.

Shen Ji Yun raised his brow. He thought, 'shouldn't you ask that first before lining up here?'. But he didn't voice that out since he found Luo Yan cute acting that way. "Okay," he could only say at the end.

So, the two went on a 'food shopping spree', buying fried noodles, roasted lamb skewers, dumplings, and some rice cakes. Of course, they didn't forget to buy drinks. Thankfully, they didn't have to wander around after that, since they quickly found a spot in the garden to eat.

They sat down on a bench and spread their food in between them.

"Thank you for the food," Luo Yan said before picking up the bowl of fried noodles.𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝𝕦𝕤𝕓.𝕔𝕠𝗆

As he watched Luo Yan eat with gusto, Shen Ji Yun felt a bit regretful that he hadn't prepared food for them to eat. If he did, then Luo Yan would be enjoying his food now. But he thought that Luo Yan might want an authentic temple fair experience, and that included the food stalls. That's why he decided not to bring food in the end.

He picked up his bowl of fried noodles and started eating as well.
