My Beloved

Han Luo declared, "When you have a girlfriend, she will be more special than I am."

Mo Yuan\'s eyes flashed with amusement. "Then all you have to do is to keep the woman away from me."

"I can\'t do that to my future sister-in-law." Han Luo had a very serious countenance when she said that.

Mo Yuan frowned. "What sister-in-law?"

Han Luo shrugged. "When you have a girlfriend, won\'t she become your wife?"

"Of course, she will." Mo Yuan was planning to marry her after dating. He would keep her to himself and monopolize her day and night.

Han Luo replied, "Then she will be my sister-in-law."

Yet to his dismay, he couldn\'t believe that she could think about it like that. He couldn\'t bear to see her with other boys despite her bring completely fine with it. He realized that the days ahead of him were going to be rough. Mo Yuan sighed and said, "…Ah Luo… she will never become your sister-in-law.

Han Luo was puzzled. "Huh? You will marry her, but she won\'t become my sister-in-law… does that mean you don\'t see me as your sister?"

Mo Yuan didn\'t answer her. In return, he asked her back, "Did I ever say that I see you as my sister?"

"No but… what do you see me as then? A friend?" Han Luo knew that he didn\'t dislike her as before and that he indulged her more than Tang Yujin, but now he was completely making her confused.

Mo Yuan tapped her nose. "I will tell you when you turn sixteen."

"Huh?" Han Luo jumped to her feet. "That\'s not fair. You can\'t just tell me half and then give me some cliffhanger. I won\'t allow that!" She stamped her foot in fury.

"But you have to bear with it for another four years." He was afraid if he told her about his feelings, she would avoid him.

"You said you don\'t see me as your sister so then what do you see me as? You have to tell me right now. Or else… or else I\'ll never talk to you again!" Han Luo turned around and tried to leave.

Mo Yuan quickly gripped her hand and pulled her to him. "Eek!" Han Luo stumbled and fell onto his lap. He hugged her tightly and put his chin on her right shoulder. He gently cooed, "Ah Luo, I\'ll spoil you more than Xiao Yujin and Sheng Ming could ever. Be a good girl and listen to me, all right? Stay with me and don\'t run away."

His warm breathing was tickling her nape. Han Luo\'s face flushed. She became aware of their close proximity and suddenly felt that it had a different vibe from before. When they were young, if Han Sheng Ming, Tang Yujin, and Mo Yuan hugged or kissed her, she didn\'t feel anything strange; she felt happy knowing that they loved her.

However, she started to think that she was all grown up. It never crossed her mind that after growing up they shouldn\'t have skin-ship too much. She realized that after coming to London, Han Sheng Ming didn\'t hug her like her before and Tang Yujin also had a respective boundary around her. Sometimes, Tang Yujin would only stroke her head or grab her wrist.

But, whenever it was Mo Yuan, she was having more intimate moments with him. He even kissed her several times.

And, now his lips were touching her shoulder.

Ba-thump! Ba-thump! Ba-thump!

Han Luo\'s heartbeat rose to the point where it was audible. She stole a glance at Mo Yuan to understand if he could hear her heartbeat or not.

Noticing that she moved her head, Mo Yuan also gazed at her. Their noses touched. He subconsciously lowered his voice, "Why aren\'t you answering my question?"

Seeing that he didn\'t react to her elevated heartbeat, Han Luo was relieved. "I won\'t answer your question. First, you have to tell me what you think of me." She twisted her body to get away from him, but he tightly grasped her.

Mo Yuan stated firmly, "I can\'t tell you because I have no courage." If he were to tell her and she leaves him, he would reach a dead end.

Han Luo was surprised. Her big brother Yuan lacking the courage to do something made her think it must truly be a strenuous task. She asked, "Does that mean you will have the courage after four years?"

"Yes, that\'s right," he admitted.

Han Luo nodded as though she were a mature adult. "All right, I will let you go for now. Be sure to tell me when the time comes." Since he was afraid of telling her the truth, she didn\'t want to force him anymore.

"Thank you. I\'ll keep my word." Mo Yuan was finally relieved and planted a kiss on her right temple.

Han Luo\'s ears tinted into a deep shade of red. She couldn\'t wriggle from his grasp and could only stay still. She felt powerless.

Mo Yuan went back to the main topic. "So, from now on, don\'t go to another man\'s room alone."

Han Luo averted her gaze. "I did not go to \'another man\'s room\' – I went to Ben\'s room."

"He is another man."

"It\'s not like I have a man." Han Luo pouted. She only believed that a woman should be true to her own man. If a girl is single, she can do whatever she wants.

"That\'s true, but you don\'t know men. They are beasts. What if you are harmed?" He was truly worried about her innocence.

"I go to big brother Yuji and big brother Ming\'s room. They are no beasts."

Mo Yuan warned her, "Xiao Yujin is a beast. Don\'t go to his room alone."

"No, he is not. Don\'t speak badly of big brother Yujin, or I\'ll get angry." Han Luo\'s expression dropped menacingly. Seeing his apologetic expression, she quickly calmed herself down and continued, "Also, I don\'t think anything bad will happen to me as long as I\'m in big brother Yuan\'s house."

Her mouth was dripping with honey.. Once again, she proved that she knew how to coax Mo Yuan.
