Chapter 106 - PICKY HAN LUO
He whispered softly yet playfully, "Ah Luo, you have to tell me. Why didn't you like it?"
All of sudden, Han Luo felt shy; she couldn't look at him in the eye. She placed her head on his chest before softly and cutely saying, "Big brother Yuan, you are a meanie."
Mo Yuan placed his left hand on her slender back and the other hand on her waist. "Then are you okay with another girl having me?"
"No!" Han Luo snapped. She realized too soon that she answered negatively. She quickly added, "I mean, I didn't get to be with you for six years. You have to be with me another six years as profit and another six years as interest. Twelve years later, you can have any girl you want. I won't stop you."
Mo Yuan smiled faintly as he looked at her. "After twelve years, any girl I want I can have?"
"Yes, any girl you want." Han Luo hurriedly added, "She has to be more beautiful than me, more graceful than me and she has to love you more than I do."
Mo Yuan placed his lips on her head and said, "That cannot happen, Ah Luo. If you become so picky, I cannot have a girlfriend."
"Why is that?" Han Luo drew circles on his chest.
"Because there is no one more beautiful and graceful than you are." He had a fuzzy feeling inside his heart after hearing 'she has to love you more than I do'.
Han Luo looked up and faced him. "Then what will you do?"
He nuzzled his nose against hers and cooed, "If that happens then I'll have to be with you."
Han Luo's eyes shimmered. "That will be great! We will have so much fun! We will play together every single day!"
"Let's do that." Mo Yuan smiled as he gazed at her.
While the two of them were chatting in the corner of the library, Beth was waiting for Han Luo to come. She needed some help with math. 'Why is she late? Where did she go?'
----------
In the evening, Mo Yuan escorted her to her house. "I'm going then." Han Luo was heading to the direction of her house.
"Wait." Mo Yuan caught her right hand and pulled her towards him. He placed a small kiss on her left cheek. "All right, you can go now."
"Okay! I know you have homework, but you have to come to our house on the weekend." Han Luo was used to getting kisses from him, though it still made her nervous.
"I will. Now go," Mo Yuan declared with a smile.
After Han Luo walked closer to her house, she saw Butler Noah standing in front of the door. She halted and then strode towards him. "You scared me! Why are you standing outside?"
"You were late, so I was worried." Butler Noah took her shoulder bag from her.
"I walked home with big brother Yuan," Han Luo replied as she entered the house.
Butler Noah still asked, "How was your dance class?"
"Very educational. Ben is a good choreographer. I think I've seen his moves before, but I can't seem to remember when…" Han Luo tried to think deeply.
"You are tired, so your brain isn't working properly. Take a bath and rest – then you will remember." Both of them went to her room together. While Han Luo chose which clothes she should wear after the bath, Butler Noah prepared a warm bath for her.
After she took a bath, he dried her hair. Her hair was too long for her to take care of alone. He suddenly coughed and said, "Brat, I have something to talk to you about. It's important."
Han Luo hardly heard him talking to her in a serious tone. She looked at him through the mirror of the dressing table and asked, "Yeah, sure. What do you want to talk about?"
Noah put down the hair dryer and knelt on the floor. Since he was tall, kneeling would make him be at her level. He looked at her in the eyes and stated, "Brat, don't let boys get physical with you."
Han Luo blinked. She couldn't understand where this topic came from. "What do you mean? I don't get physical with just anyone."
Noah carefully asked, "Are you sure?" He didn't want to rush his thoughts.
Han Luo tried to remember, "Yeah, aside from big brother Ming, big brother Yujin… no, big brother Ming only hugs me and big brother Yujin is keeping a little distance from me…" She started to get quiet.
"What about Young Master Mo?" Noah tried to make it seem as natural as possible.
Teenagers have a habit of thinking they understand everything and others don't know anything or don't understand how they feel. That's why they easily become lonely. They seem to listen to those who take their sides even if it's wrong. Since teenagers don't understand that they are wrong, they often take the wrong path. That's why, adults need to be careful of not hurting their feelings and let them (t) think that they (a) understand them (t).
That was what made Noah carefully approach this topic to her.
"Ah, big brother Yuan…" Han Luo slightly blushed. She was too embarrassed to admit.
He slowly declared, "I know you are childhood friends and grew up together, but you have to be careful around him since you are growing up."
Han Luo asked, "Why is that?"
He looked at her in the eyes while replying, "Because this type of skin-ship is only for lovers, not for brothers and sisters."
Han Luo couldn't understand this part. "But don't I kiss mom and dad?"
"They think of you as their daughter, you think of them as your guardian. What about Young Master Mo? Does he think of you as his sister? To tell you the truth, no brother kisses their sister so casually all the time. Does Young Master Han kiss you often?"
He wouldn't have said all these if he didn't see Mo Yuan kissing her time to time. He also noticed that Mo Yuan was looking at her in a different way. He wished he could ask Mo Yuan's father to guide his child.
[A/N: When I was in 9th grade, a student of 4th grade send a letter to her friend in the same class – 'if you don't like the boy in the cram school, give him to me'. It became a story of the year in my school. As a late bloomer, it took me 20 years to understand what's love or romance, but, here a girl, who is only 9 years old, is asking for MAN for herself. That incident taught me - children are very mature.]
