Chapter 125 - SIMPLE BROTHER AND SISTER RELATIONSHIP
"…I see… I see. I will come to the lobby in three hours. Wait for me." Ma Rui hung up without listening to what Han Luo had to say. She wanted to hug and kiss her son for letting Han Luo stay with him. 'I know he didn't do anything but at least there is still hope for my son.' She clasped her hands together and prayed, 'Lord Buddha! Please look over my son!'
Meanwhile, Han Luo called Noah, Han Sheng Ming, and Tang Yujin one by one. They all seemed worried about her but she assured them that she was okay.
When she told Noah that Mo Yuan was helping her to pack her luggage, Noah only said, "Don't let him get too close to you."
Han Luo paused and replied, "Sure, no problem." After hanging up, she thought about the incident that occurred in the morning. Remembering how affectionately he kissed her, her heart started to race.
Thinking how easily she accepted him to be her lover just to get a kiss, she started to think, 'Did I make any mistake? But big brother Yuan indeed cares for me a lot. Since he doesn't think of me either his younger sister or his friend, I can give it a shot. When the time comes, I will find my man and marry him and big brother Yuan can also marry whomever he wants.'
[A/N: Such a generous girlfriend, Ah Luo! ]
In the meantime, Mo Yuan went to Han Luo's hotel and told the staff that he came to pack her bag. When they asked about her, he said that she was in his room. They knew that called him 'big brother' and they were very close.
Thus, they let him enter her room. Her room was small and simple but she had more clothes, shoes, makeup boxes, and other materials than him. It's probably because of her performance.
When he started to pack her clothes, someone came to the doorway and asked, "Where is Luo?"
Mo Yuan turned around and saw Jared. Jared seemed surprised not to see Han Luo but Mo Yuan instead.
Mo Yuan didn't answer him. He asked back, "Why are you here?"
Jared casually answered, "I promised Luo last night that I would help her. So where is she?"
Mo Yuan's pupils constricted. 'Last night he said… it must be before she came to meet me. But why did she meet him at night?'
Jared didn't notice his expression. He gathered Han Luo's shoes without another word. He could feel Mo Yuan's cold gaze staring at him but he didn't bother. It was the first time Mo Yuan ever talked to him. Jared never imagined that this famous 'ice cube' from his school would actually talk to him.
Moreover, he was still curious and worried about Han Luo. He also wanted to talk to her before she left. However, he didn't see a shadow of her.
"Take your hands off her shoes." From his back, Mo Yuan coldly warned him.
Jared didn't let go of Han Luo's shoes. He turned around and faced Mo Yuan. "I promised Luo that I would help her pack and I will do so."
"You are not needed." Mo Yuan curtly said. His eyes were hostile. He didn't like the fact that Jared was calling Han Luo by her first name. it was irritating him.
"Uh… Luo?" Another voice was heard from the doorway.
The boys looked at the girl and the girl looked at the boys and she panicked. "I-I'm so sorry! Wrong room!"
As she was about to leave, Jared called out, "Zenna, this is Luo's room."
Zenna looked inside carefully and recognized Jared. She came inside and asked, "Jared, why are you alone with another boy in Luo's room? Where is Luo?"
"If you want to know where Luo is you have to ask him." Jared pointed out at Mo Yuan. "He knows where she is. I didn't see her in the morning and thought she didn't want to see those girls. However, when I came here, I didn't see her at all."
"H-how worrisome!" Zenna timidly looked at Mo Yuan and asked, "Where is Luo? I'm very worried about her."
"…" Mo Yuan didn't reply as if he didn't hear her. Seeing his intimidating aura, Zenna cowered. "I-I'm her friend. I'm here to help her pack her bag but I think it's hypocritical for me to come here when I'm the reason she is kicked out."
Mo Yuan's ears perked up.
Jared said, "It's not your fault. She was at the top. She would eventually be targeted."
"Target? By whom?" Mo Yuan asked.
"It seems that she didn't tell you. How unreliable older brother you are." Jared provokingly said. He was upset that Mo Yuan knew nothing about Han Luo's trouble and yet he came to help her when she didn't need any.
Zenna saw the atmosphere between the boys wasn't good and she thought she should escape from here.
Mo Yuan didn't argue with Jared and coldly gazed at Zenna. "You were saying…"
Zenna nervously explained, "U-um… the thing is, there are four girls who bully the top dancers and remove them from the competition by abusing or creating an accident. One day, they were bullying me and Luo saved me. As a result, they targeted her. They knew that they couldn't verbally bully her. So they chose to sabotage her in the competition."
"I guess they broke the heels of her shoes beforehand." Jared took a pair of golden colored shoes. It was the pair that Han Luo wore on the third round. The heels were broke and they could clearly see that it was deliberately broken by someone.
"Who are they?" Mo Yuan gnashed his teeth and asked. His aura changed suddenly making both Jared and Zenna flinch.
Jared started to have a doubt. 'Do they really see each other as brother and sister?'
When had Mo Yuan ever been this emotional about someone else?
If you said there was nothing between those two, who would believe you?
[Mo Yuan: Yes, I don't believe it either.]
