My Beloved

Assistant Ju Long stated, "I hope the boys aren\'t disturbing you. I told them to let you rest first."

Han Luo remarked, "No, it\'s fine. I\'m so glad they came to welcome me. I missed them." She sweetly smiled at the boys. Afterward, he invited Assistant Ju Long, "Assistant Long, please have a meal with us. You won\'t have time to eat later on."

"No, no, its\' fine," Assistant Ju Long hurriedly refuted.

Han Luo told him, "No need to be so modest around youngsters like us. We have more room for you to join. Come on."

"…" Not that she mentioned \'youngsters\', he suddenly felt old.

While they were eating, someone came to them with a sour expression.

"Do you smell something?" Mu Ling suddenly asked.

Han Luo who was eating looked at him. "Smell what?"

Mu Ling slowly uttered, "I smell something burning."

"Do you mean fire broke down somewhere?" Han Luo became alert. She tried to smell something burning but she couldn\'t.

"Cough! Cough!" Assistant Ju Long choked on his food and coughed harshly. Mu Lin handed him a glass of water.

At that time, Mu Laquan stated, "I smell something different though."

"What kind of smell?" Mu Lian questioned him.

Mu Laquan shortly answered, "Smell of vinegar jar."

"Vinegar jar…" Han Luo paused. She tried to make meaning out of their words. And then suddenly, she sensed an ominous presence. She turned her head and saw what was bothering everyone "…Yuan?!"

Mo Yuan was omitting a dark aura. His unfathomable deep eyes were showing sparks. He opened his mouth and words came out between his teeth, "What\'s going on here?"

He didn\'t have enough sleep and when he went to find Han Luo, she was nowhere to be found. He called her but she left it in the room. He went crazy and looked all over for her.

When he was going nuts, thinking something had happened to her, she was having a pleasant lunch with a bunch of men.

Han Luo felt that something was missing. She carefully answered, "We are having lunch. I thought you were sleeping. So, I didn\'t bother you. Are you hungry? Come and join us then."

\'So, she is having lunch with a bunch of men because she is hungry. Is it really like that or else she is trying to find another husband? Maybe I was making her work too hard and she lost her feelings for me…\' the more his thoughts turned negative, the scarier his expression had become.

\'Waah! Pretty sister, pretty sister, he is scaring me," Mu Ling cried out all of a sudden while thinking, \'For the sake of my brother, I will sacrifice my dignity as a man.\'

Han Luo tried to appease him, "Xiao Ling, he isn\'t a scary person. He is a good big brother. He will even play with you." She swiftly lied to calm him down. Mo Yuan didn\'t like children and he absolutely hated playing with them.

As thought notwithstanding Mo Yuan\'s anger, Mu Ling cried even lower. He wasn\'t listening to Han Luo\'s words at all. "Pretty sister, this ugly monster

She helplessly glanced at her boyfriend. "Would you mind eating somewhere else? You scared Xiao Ling."

\'Xiao Ling?\' Mo Yuan\'s crude eyes gazed at the pretentious Mu Ling. \'So, this is my enemy. You dare to call me an \'ugly monster\'. I will remember that.\' Without a word, he turned around and left. He didn\'t want to make Han Luo upset and leave him for good. Thus, he didn\'t make a fuss.

After he left, Han Luo felt sympathetic. She turned toward Mu Ling and said, "See? Big brother is gone now. You don\'t have to cry anymore."

Mu Ling wiped his eyes and asked her, "Pretty sister, are you sad?"

"Why would she be sad? Ugly monster is gone." Mu Laquan commented.

Han Luo gave them a small smile. "I know you are afraid of him but at least try to get along with him, all right? He is the person I chose to be with."

The boys became silent.

"…" Mu Laquan felt like he couldn\'t breathe. "Please excuse me," saying that he stood up and ran away without finishing his meal.

"Is he okay?" Han Luo got worried.

Mu Lian prevented her from following his brother saying, "He is okay. I think he went to the washroom. Just give him some time and he will come back."

"As long as he is fine," Han Luo resumed eating.

After they finished their meal, Han Luo said, "Xiao Uan (Mu Laquan) hasn\'t come back yet. I\'m going to look for him. Maybe he lost his way."

"Okay," Mu Lian nodded in agreement. As soon as she was out of sight, he went further inside the garden and found his brother number three. He gently spoke, "Don\'t cry. You knew she would get married one day. You are a lot younger than her. She will never marry you. She treats you like a brother."

"You don\'t have to tell me that. I know it already." Mu Laquan sobbed silently.

At that moment, Mu Ling came out of nowhere and hugged his heartbroken brother. "Uan, do you want me to separate them? I will try my best to make our pretty sister yours."

Mu Laquan shook his head. "But then she will be unhappy. She will come to hate us. I want her to smile all the time. I can\'t bear to see her upset."

"My poor brother, you fell in love so hard!" Mu Ling hugged his brother tightly.

Assistant Ju Long observed them secretly and wondered, \'What am I going to do with these boys?\'

Meanwhile, Han Luo went to Mo Yuan\'s room. He was lying down on the bed.

She sat down beside him and said, "Don\'t be mad at them, okay? They are good boys."

\'You have been charmed and fooled by those pretty faces. You have no idea what their hideous plan is,\' Mo Yuan spoke to himself. \'Even if I tell her she won\'t believe me. Wait, maybe they are trying to tear us apart. As if it\'s that easy.. I won\'t let them take away my Ah Luo.\'
