Chapter 148 - MO YUAN'S DEEP SIGH
Han Luo pursed her lips unhappily after accusing them. Not being able to tease her anymore, Tang Yujin revealed smiling softly, "Your victory gift is back in your house."
Han Luo's eyes immediately lit up. "Really?!" she asked them. As Tang Yujin nodded in confirmation, she chirped happily at them, "Yay! Thank you, big brother Yujin!" She suddenly stopped and asked, "What about my Christmas present?"
Tang Yujin asked her back in surprise, "When did you become so greedy?" In his eyes, she was a cute, obedient girl. She never acted like a spoiled girl before. He was surprised that she had that side on her.
Han Luo's body froze for a split second upon hearing this remark, but she composed herself in the next moment. She complained, "How can you say that? This is the first Christmas I'm spending with you all after six years. I want it to be special."
She almost forgot that the only time she acted spoiled was in front of her big brother Yuan because he indulged her more than her big brother Ming and big brother Yujin. However, now that she was mad at him, she couldn't act spoiled anymore.
Han Sheng Ming didn't think deeply about it and agreed with her. "That's right. It's our first Christmas with my cute little Luo Luo after six years. Moreover, she even got first place in international competition. We must make it special for her."
"Big brother Ming is the best!" Han Luo grinned at him.
Tang Yujin's expression changed. He thought that he was the best big brother in her eyes. To think that this little girl's heart swayed so easily, he had to fight for her heart constantly.
Tang Yujin thought that he was having a headache.
"Haven't you guys freshened up yet?" A cold voice spoke from the doorway.
They turned to see who it was, although they knew who it was. Mo Yuan was standing outside the door. He looked gloomy and surprisingly his aura was much colder than the Paris weather. Both Han Sheng Ming and Tang Yujin felt chills in their spines for some unknown reason.
Han Luo paused and looked at his direction. However, she didn't directly look at him. She didn't want to face him at that moment.
"Congratulations on your victory, Xiao Yuan. How have you been?" Han Sheng Ming was the first to break free from his stupor. He walked closer to Mo Yuan and patted his shoulder. He was genuinely happy for his friend's success.
Mo Yuan's gaze turned from Han Luo to his friend and said, "I'm doing great. I've heard about your match too. You've scored more than others. Congrats."
"Of course I had to do my best. My little Luo Luo told me to do my best. I couldn't just make her sad," Han Sheng Ming proudly said.
Mo Yuan's left eye twitched. He could never get used to Han Sheng Ming calling Han Luo 'my little Luo Luo'. When he couldn't even get her to look at him, how could he take it? Moreover, Han Luo's 'the best' award was given to Han Sheng Ming earlier just after snatching it from him. Neither could he allow it nor could he stop it from happening. Sour feelings filled his heart.
Although Han Sheng Ming didn't notice it, Tang Yujin noticed that there was something going on between Han Luo and Mo Yuan. He gave a side glance to Han Luo who was being awfully quiet.
Tang Yujin came forward and talked to Mo Yuan, "Congrats on your victory. We have prepared a victory present for both of you. You will get it after you go home.
Mo Yuan said, "Thank you."
"So, how're your days going?" Tang Yujin asked.
Mo Yuan casually replied, "As usual; we have completed visiting Paris. If you need a guide, I can help you."
Han Sheng Ming immediately protested, "I don't need your help. My little Luo Luo will show me around the city. Won't you, little Luo Luo?" He looked at Han Luo.
Han Luo nodded. "Yes, I will."
"I know you will. Let me get your Christmas present." Han Sheng Ming started to unpack his luggage and Han Luo stood beside him.
Mo Yuan and Tang Yujin weren't very far away. They were looking at Han Luo and Han Sheng Ming's excitement.
After a while, Tang Yujin looked straight at Mo Yuan and asked, "Is everything all right?"
Mo Yuan didn't answer him and looked at Han Luo.
Han Luo knew that he was staring at her because she could feel his burning gaze but she didn't look back at him and was talking to Han Sheng Ming about random things.
Mo Yuan quietly replied, "Nothing is all right."
Tang Yujin tried to figure out how things went wrong. He thought Mo Yuan wasn't that sort of person who would make the same mistake twice. He asked, "What happened?"
Mo Yuan let out a deep sigh. "That's a long story."
Tang Yujin never heard Mo Yuan sighing like that. He asked in puzzlement, "What on earth happened?"
"I made a huge mistake," Mo Yuan admitted. Only he knew how he completely screwed up this time. He was getting impatient and wanted her to come close to him as soon as possible. However, the table turned and whatever that happened it was totally out of his control.
After seeing Mo Yuan's grave expression, Tang Yujin didn't ask further.
Han Luo exclaimed, "Wow! It's a white bunny!"
It was a small bunny accessory that could be attached to Han Luo's cell phone.
Han Sheng Ming proudly said, "The moment I saw it, I knew I had to buy this for you. When you told me that you got a mobile, I thought it would be a good decoration piece for your new mobile. So, what do you think?"
"It's wonderful! I love it, big brother Ming. Thank you so much for this lovely present." Han Luo simply liked this small, fluffy thing and it was just too cute. She couldn't help but give her cousin a big hug.
Han Sheng Ming's dry heart finally found an oasis.. He hid his shyness and commented, "I knew you would like it."
