Bearing with the smoke that swirled around and the severe discomfort in his nose, Lin Jin walked into the internet cafe.
This internet cafe was just an ordinary one, not one of the trendy new internet and coffee cafe, so nobody cared about smoking. As a result, every three seats had a smoker and the spacious building was so filled with smoke that it was like a smoggy day where you couldn't see someone ten meters away.
After wandering around the internet cafe for a while, Lin Jin finally found his cousins and his younger brother sitting together in a group of three.
He didn't disturb them, silently standing behind the trio. The sense of urgency he had felt earlier disappeared after seeing them. After all, his cousin Wu Jia had a lot of friends in the area. If a fight broke out, Wu Jia could definitely call in a group to back them up. His younger brother Lin Chen was also muscular and sturdy guy. Although he probably never fought in his life, he could surely take on three at a time if a fight occured.
As for his cousin Zhao Ruo... if a fight broke out, Zhao Ruo would play the same role as Lin Jin. They would be hiding in the back and cheering 666.
They seemed to be on their second game, yelling and shouting. Unfortunately, the situation in the game was terrible. They had been pushed to their base in just twenty minutes. Lin Chen died twenty times in twenty minutes, an average of one death a minute. He was basically treated as a minion, existing only to be farmed.
Watching Lin Chen get killed by the enemy support again, Lin Jin silently covered his face with his hand.
"Big cousin" Lin Chen suddenly turned his head to look at Wu Jia beside him, "I'm a bit worried about my brother."
"What's wrong?"
Wu Jia's character was still alive so he was too preoccupied to chat with Lin Chen. He tried to save the game, but was just ganged up on and killed by three players. He let out a sigh as he grabbed a pack of cigarettes from the side and took one out to smoke. After lighting one up and placing in it his mouth, he casually handed one to their cousin Zhao Ruo.
Only then did Wu Jia have the mind to ask Lin Chen. He turned his head towards Lin Chen: "Your brother isn't a kid anymore, what's there to worry about?"
"But..." Lin Chen carefully thought. Indeed, Lin Jin was not a child anymore. Even back when he was, Lin Jin already had experience taking a high-speed train to Guangzhou without informing anyone. So logically speaking, he didn’t need to worry about Lin Jin being in an unfamiliar place.
However, the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
"But my brother is too beautiful, I'm afraid he'll attract trouble" Lin Chen said with concern.
As Lin Jin's younger brother and as a man who had once shared a bed with Lin Jin and felt his charm, Lin Chen was worried, fearing that his brother might be harassed by others.
Zhao Ruo took a drag on her cigarette and shamelessly interjected, "Do I not look pretty? But no one has ever tried to start something with me."
"But you're a tomboy..."
"Hey! I don't like that comment! Can't a tomboy be a girl? Can't a tomboy be pretty?" Zhao Ruo took off her jacket, revealing a flat chest that was even more airport like than Lin Jin's. She rolled up her sleeves and flexed her muscles towards Lin Chen, "Believe it or not, I'll hit you!"
Lin Chen immediately chickened out, awkwardly scratching his head.
Even his brother wasn't as mannish as that, right?
He complained inwardly, while his character died yet again in the game. Watching their base being destroyed, Lin Chen finally couldn't sit still anymore and stood up, "I'm going to look for my brother."
"Stop looking, I'm right here."
Lin Jin, with his hands in his jacket pockets, rolled his eyes at Lin Chen as he stood up.
Lin Chen was clearly startled by the sudden appearance of Lin Jin. His entire body jerked and it took him a while to recover. He turned around and saw Lin Jin pinching his nose and breathing through his mouth.
"When did you get here?" Lin Chen asked with an embarrassed face, mortified that his brother had heard what he said.
"I just got here not long ago." Lin Jin pushed away the unoccupied chair beside him and sat down on the armrest of Lin Chen's chair. He let go of his nose, took a deep breath, and found that he seemed to have gotten used to the smoke smell inside. Then, he turned to their cousin Wu Jia and said “I think I caused some trouble.”
"What happened?" The game had just ended and cousin Wu Jia wasn't in a rush to continue. He looked up at Lin Jin and asked, "Did someone harass you?"
"It's not exactly harassing" Lin Jin looked down to check the unfinished task and explained with a bit of guilt, "I encountered someone on the street who seemed like they wanted to rob me, but I scammed him."
"Then I ran out here, but I have this feeling that the person won’t let it go." Lin Jin shrugged helplessly, "I don't know why I encountered such a thing. Is the public safety in our town that bad?"
"It's pretty bad" Wu Jia nodded, "I saw fights every day when I was in middle school here."
Lin Jin pouted unhappily and said "I didn't provoke anyone, but they just have to come after me."
If he hadn't left his stun gun at home and didn't want to cause trouble with the mini bomb, Lin Jin would not be scared at all, okay?
Or maybe... should he buy a bottle of water and put the forgiveness pill in it, so that person can choose to forgive him?
Lin Jin watched as Lin Chen and the others started another game. He pulled a chair over and sat down in boredom. Kicking off his shoes, he curled up on the chair.
If an ordinary man did this in public, many people might think the guy lacks manners. But when Lin Jin, someone as pretty as a girl, did this, it instead gave off a , but when Lin Jin, as pretty as any girl, did this, it gave off a sort of endearing charm.
Hmm, so having a good appearance is what really counts.
Lin Jin didn't really enjoy gaming. Although he often played Dota 2 back in the dormitory, he had no interest if it was just him alone. It was much better to lie in bed and read novels.
Lin Jin watched Lin Chen yelling and shouting as he played. Lin Chen was only allowed to game on his computer for a few hours a week. So although his grades were good, his gaming skills were like that of a primary school student. Even Zhao Ruo, a girl, played better than him. Lin Jin saw that players in game had already started cursing him in chat.
He disinterestedly watched them play them play, but he didn’t complain. Lin Jin had been playing this game for five or six years, but he gave up when he started college. Now, if he were to play again, he would probably just feed as well.
After watching them play two rounds for about an hour, Lin Jin suddenly heard chaotic noises coming from the internet cafe's entrance. He felt uneasy and turned his head to suddenly see a group of a dozen people gathered at the door. Among them was the guy who attempted to do something to him earlier, standing there at the front with a pale face.
F*ck?! He found me in just an hour?! IAre your balls okay? Did you practice some steel ball kung fu techniques or did I kick too softly?
Bro! Robbery and sexual assault are illegal, so is gathering a crowd to fight, you know! Do you have to be so hardcore?
