Chapter 103 - EATING DOG FOOD IN THE LIBRARY
Mo Yuan saw her studying diligently and couldn't help but smile discreetly. He took off his scarf and wrapped it around Han Luo's neck.
Han Luo was surprised and looked at him. Then she wrote, 'Big brother Yuan, aren't you cold?'
Mo Yuan wrote, 'I'm older than you and I don't catch a cold easily. Moreover, didn't the doctor tell you to stay warm all the time? You easily catch a cold.'
Han Luo silently giggled and wrote, 'You sound really old, like a grandfather.'
Mo Yuan frowned. 'She thinks I'm talking like an old man?' Thinking that, he pinched her nose and held on.
Han Luo tried to move away but couldn't. When Mo Yuan finally let go, her white nose turned red instantly. She glared at him while pouting. Mo Yuan's thin lips were holding back laughter. In his eyes, she looked so damn cute that he didn't want anyone else except for himself to behold that expression of hers.
"!!!" Beth was sitting far away but she was recording Mo Yuan's action. Her jaw dropped on the floor watching him smiling and teasing Han Luo. 'What am I seeing? Is the ship going to sink? No, no, it cannot be. Maybe it's what's brotherly love is like in China. I've seen Sheng and Yujin dote on her too. I guess they really see Luo as their little sister. Yuan is also the same. But, why does it feel like I'm seeing a public display of affection (eating dog food)? There must be something wrong with my eyes.'
After Han Luo was done with her homework, she went out of the library with Beth. Beth caught her arms and said, "Luo, is there something you have forgotten to tell me?"
"What did I forget to tell you about?" Han Luo asked in confusion.
Beth spoke, "About Yuan, damn you two were flirting! Are a brother and a sister are allowed to have this kind of relationship in China?"
Han Luo shook her head. "We weren't flirting. Can you see things a little more innocently please?"
"So, this is how you guys normally act." Beth nodded in understanding. She quickly took a note.
Han Luo hurriedly stopped her. "Big brother Yuan only teases me but it's nothing to do with being brother and sister. He doesn't see me as his sister." She pursed her lips.
Beth exclaimed, "Does that mean he sees you as his lover?!" She covered her mouth.
"How can that be? Though I asked him if he thought of me as his friend, he denied. I don't even know what he thinks of me." Han Luo looked down dejectedly while walking.
"Since he doesn't think of you as his sister or a friend or a girlfriend, the only thing remaining is – his friend's sister. That's it, he thinks of you as his friend's sister. That's why he teases you." Beth sighed in relief. "And, here I thought that my ship was going to sink like the Titanic."
Han Luo felt helpless. "Again, with Nana Shimizu and big brother Yuan, have you even seen them talking?"
Beth shrugged. "If they talk and meet secretly, how will I know? I don't stalk them, you know!"
"All right, all right. I'm okay with any sister-in-law as long as she loves big brother with her whole heart." Though she said that, Han Luo felt a prick in her heart.
[A/N: Cutie pie, don't let your big brother Yuan hear what you just said.]
In the evening, Han Luo excitedly walked with Mo Yuan and went to the dancing school. That's were Benjamin told them to meet him. They saw Benjamin smoking outside the building.
"Ben!" Han Luo called him and waved her hand.
Benjamin looked at them and smiled. Seeing Mo Yuan glaring at him, the smile disappeared from his mouth. 'Does he really have to be so guarded around me? I'm not a pedophile, all right?' He extinguished the fire of the cigarette and threw it into the bin.
He waited for them to come closer and asked, "Did you have a hard time finding this place?"
Han Luo shook her head. "Not at all but why didn't you come with us?"
"I had some business to take care of. Let's go inside." Benjamin went inside and they followed him. They went to the largest room where Benjamin came last time.
The room was dark and there were a few lightnings in the ceiling that moved along with the dancer. The walls were covered with huge mirrors.
There, they saw two girls – one in front of the piano and another one on the empty floor dancing.
"This room is a little dark." Mo Yuan looked around and commented.
"A…ha…ha… this is the best room in the school." Benjamin knew Mo Yuan wouldn't like this place.
Mary Jones stepped forward with a friendly smile and introduced herself, "Hello, I'm Mary Jones. I'm the senior dancer and the dance teacher in this school. It's very nice to meet you."
Han Luo shook hands with her. "Hello Miss Mary, I'm Luo Han and he is Yuan Mo. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm the one who will learn from you. Please guide me well."
Mary smiled. "You are very polite. I heard that eastern people are very careful about manners. I guess it's true. We have some students from India, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, Philippines, and Singapore. This is the first time we have had a Chinese student. Let's get along well."
"Yes, I'll be in your care." Han Luo liked her personality. She was used to seeing her on television and online videos. So, she knew very well how professional Mary was. She was beyond happy to have her as her dance teacher.
Mary gazed at the boy beside Han Luo but Mo Yuan didn't even glance at her.
The girl who was playing the piano came forward and introduced herself. "Hello everyone, I'm Rose Jones, Mary's cousin. It's nice to meet you all."
"I'm Luo Han and he is Yuan Mo. Nice to meet you too." Han Luo shook hands with her.
Rose carefully looked at her and suddenly screamed. "Ah! You are the famous Luo Han! I've seen your live video of dancing against Jared on the group page."
