They hugged for a while until Chang-sun patted Weng Jian's back indicating that they should let go now.

But Weng Jian didn't want to let go!

Chang-sun helplessly convinced Weng Jian that he needs to wash up and change his clothes. Weng Jian reluctantly agrees....But he quickly brightens up when he thought of Chang-sun possibly accepting him as a lover!

Chang-sun went up to his room while continuously listening to Pin's dull mechanical voice.

[Host...! You're....Giving the protagonist a chance???]

[Do you like the protagonist host??]

[When?!]

Chang-sun felt a bit funny by his system's inquiry. He went inside the bathroom and took off his suit.

"Well....I do like Jianjian. But not in a romantic way....After all, I've been treating him like my own very brother. So it would be hard to change my feelings for him"

[....Then why..]

Chang-sun went inside the shower. "I just wanna respect Jianjian's feelings....If I knew his feelings and stayed ignorant about it, thats just so not cool...."

[..But you could have rejected him if you don't have feelings for him]

"Pin......Jianjian is very precious to me...I don't want to hurt his feelings.."

"Thats why....I gave him a chance."

[What if you fall for him as well...?]

Chang-sun smiled a bit as he finishes up. He went out the shower, took a towel, and wiped his body. "Feelings are very hard to predict."

"So I'm just gonna see what my heart has to say while he courts me"

[...........]

[I never knew you were such a...Tender person. Well— I knew that you were a nice person from the start. But....]

[I've always thought, that was because of your naive and dense personality.]

[...Host, You care about other people's feelings very much...Thats nice...]

Chang-sun went out the bathroom to grab his casual wear. "Well....I like to make everyone happy after all"

<Host is sensitive to feelings, but very dense when someone wants to try and harm him....Well, I guess this is the result of being a kind person.>

<But not all kind people are dense to negative feelings....Why is host like this?..........Maybe he already knows, and chose to be kind either way>

Chang-sun goes out of his room to return back to the living room.

[Host. I meant to tell you earlier....]

'Yes?~'

[Ruslan. The male lead, is actually very scheming.]

Chang-sun stopped walking as he raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Lan is scheming..?"

[Yes host. Earlier, he mentioned the protagonist's feelings for you right? It wasn't actually meant to help you....But to cause a crack in both your relationship with Weng Jian..]

Chang-sun widened his eyes in disbelief! Lan is actually like that?! He was trying to break Jianjian and my relationship?! Why...?!

"Why is he doing this?!" Chang-sun frowned with disappointment....His friend...Is actually not a very nice person...

'Is it because of me...? Is it because I'm getting in the way with Lan and Jianjian's relationship??'

[No. Its because he has also fallen for you.]

Chang-sun became speechless....

[He's jealous that you and Weng Jian are very close. So thats why he's attempting to break your relationship.]

'B..But why...? Just because of jealousy that you want to break a perfect relationship...?'

[Thats why he's scheming. The male lead is head over heels for you, he's practically convinced that you guys are soulmates, specifically matched by the Gods. Is what he thought.]

[I think he's not going to give up on you easily host...]

'....I...'

"Illia ge?" Weng Jian called out.

Chang-sun looked towards his direction. He didn't notice Weng Jian just now.

"I wanted to check on you since you took a while to come back." Weng Jian said as he went to Chang-sun's side.

"Jianjian...."

"Is something the matter Illia ge?" Weng Jian smiled sweetly at Chang-sun.

"..Well.....What would you do if, suddenly you found out that your friend is actually not a nice person who wants to ruin your relationship with a loved one...?"

[Thats a lot of information that you are giving out host....]

Weng Jian meaningfully looked at Chang-sun. "Well....I would immediately cut off all connections."

"Cut off?? Why?" Chang-sun asked curiously...

Weng Jian took his hand and guided towards the living room. The two sat on the large couch with a comfortable air.

"Well, because I don't want to associate with someone who wants to ruin my relationship with a loved one."

Chang-sun grabbed a couch pillow and hugged it. "But shouldn't you talk first?? After all, communication is key if you want a successful relationship!"

"I dont really care. I only need you in my life." Weng Jian truthfully said as he hugged Chang-sun's side, like he always does. But Chang-sun couldn't unsee it anymore....Because there is a much more deeper meaning to this hug...

Weng Jian felt quite happy that he can finally express his feelings to Chang-sun openly. He wouldn't have to hide it anymore!

He snuggled closer as he thought of things in his mind....He needs to court Chang-sun as soon as possible! He doesn't want to waste this chance that Chang-sun gave him!

Weng Jian's going to make Chang-sun's heart beat for him, like his heart beat's for Chang-sun.

"Illia ge. Since tomorrow is Saturday, why don't we go on a date?"

Chang-sun thought about it. "A date?"

Weng Jian nodded with a smile. He placed his chin on Chang-sun's shoulder and said "Yes, a date. Lets go to an amusement park and have some fun, what do you say?"

"That sounds like a great idea! Lets do it!" Chang-sun's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Weng Jian squinted his eyes with satisfaction "Good."

Weng Jian is going to make sure that Chang-sun will have an awesome time tomorrow! If Chang-sun enjoys their time, maybe they can go on a date again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day.

Chang-sun looked through his closet as he hummed thoughtfully.

"Hum~ Pin what should I wear?"

[.........]

[I dont know human fashion.]

Chang-sun pouted a bit. "Come on Pin~ don't pout and help me!"

[You can't even see me. How are you supposed to know that I'm pouting?]

"I can feel it!"

[Well, to your disappointment. I'm not pouting.]

Chang-sun helplessly shook his head, not taking his system seriously. Chang-sun took a turtle neck from his closet and wore it, since thats the only informal thing Chang-sun could find.

Then to top it all off, he wore a pair of dark blue jeans that fit his beautiful and muscular legs.

Chang-sun presented himself to Pin. "How do I look??"

[..........]

[....Ok.]

Chang-sun was kinda disappointed by Pin's lack of compliment...But hey! At least its better than not replying at all right?

Chang-sun looked at himself on the mirror. He stared at the outfit he wore with satisfaction! It was simple and very comfy! Not too over the top and not formal.

Now, Chang-sun just have to do something about his hair...

He looks at the messy blonde with wonder....

[....How about don't style it?]

[Just brush it and your done.]

"Yeahh, good idea Pin!" Chang-sun did just that, and now he is good to go!

[Can't believe you're going on a date, with the protagonist.]

"Hehehe~ I'm excited. I wonder what kind of fun would we do??"

Chang-sun went out of his room, he went down the stairs to go to the living room where he guessed, Weng Jian was waiting.

And yep, he was right.

There he saw Weng Jian sitting on the big couch. With an outfit that Chang-sun has never seen him wear before...
Because usually, Chang-sun only sees Weng Jian wear either his school uniform or a green hoodie.

"You look nice Jianjian!" Chang-sun complimented with a big smile on his face.

Weng Jian looked towards Chang-sun, then he smiled. "Thanks Illia ge. You look nice as well" He stood up and went to Chang-sun's side.

Weng Jian was wearing a long sleeved polo, paired with a pastel green cardigan and black jeans. His hair was also styled that his smooth forehead can be seen.

"Are you ready Illia ge?" Weng Jian asked with anticipation.

Chang-sun nodded vigorously. "Yeah!"

Weng Jian naturally held his hand and said. "Then lets go."
