Mo Yuan stopped writing and gazed at her silently. He was interested to know what she wanted to say about Han Luo.

Martha stated, "Young Master, I don't know what you told Miss Han but today I saw her secretly going to Ben's room while he was bathing. They were inside the room for quite a long time, I must say! We all know he is a handsome fellow and has many women – but Miss Han is just a child. She can make a couple of mistakes. I know it's not my place to inform you but I'm worried about the reputation of this house. What if something bad happens? The blame will be on you and the Madam."

Mo Yuan put down his pencil. His expression became bitter and had no pleasure masked on it. "Did you see this with your own eyes?"

Martha replied, "Yes, Young Master."

"Good. Keep your mouth shut. Don't tell anyone a thing. I'll take care of it," Mo Yuan instructed her before going back to his studies.

"…Yes, Young Master." Martha left the study room and walked to the dining room. 'Did it work? He looked upset though. I should wait patiently.'

During lunchtime, Mo Yuan didn't speak much. He usually didn't speak a lot anyway, but this time he was completely silent.

"Big brother Yuan, eat this… big brother Yuan, you need to eat more…" Han Luo filled his bowl with meat and vegetables.

"…" Mo Yuan finished everything she put in his bowl without saying a word.

Han Luo frowned. 'What's wrong with him? Did something bad happen? If so, then he can just say so. Why is he showing his temper to me? Hmph!' She pouted and finished her meal without saying another word.After lunch, Han Luo went to the garden, walked for half an hour, and then came back inside. She calmed herself before going to meet Mo Yuan in his room.Mo Yuan did some light exercises and went back to his room. He was sitting on the couch while reading a book.

That's when Han Luo came and stood in front of him. She put her hands on her waist and proclaimed, "If you have something to say then say it. I don't like it when you don't tell me anything and give me the silent treatment."

Mo Yuan closed the book and stood up. Without looking at her, he walked past her and sat on his bed. When he did that, he then looked at her.

Han Luo followed him and asked, "What's wrong"

"You tell me," Mo Yuan calmly declared.

"Tell you what?" She was confused.

Mo Yuan questioned her, "Did you go to meet Ben in his room?"

Han Luo answered almost immediately, "I did. Didn't I tell you he agreed to be my choreographer?"

He asked patiently, "Was he bathing?"

Han Luo denied, "No. I think he just finished bathing because I did smell some soap in his body." She looked at him with clear black pearl-like eyes that did not hold a single ounce of malice.

Mo Yuan sighed. Her answer was so innocent that there was no way he could react negatively.magic

Han Luo couldn't understand what was making him act like that. She sat beside him and asked, "Did something happen? Did Ben say that he can't be my choreographer?"

"No, he didn't." Mo Yuan took her hand and turned to see her face. He asked, "Ah Luo, how old are you?"Han Luo tilted her head, "I'm twelve. Did you not know?"

Mo Yuan patiently said, "I know. But don't you think you are growing up?"

Han Luo protested, "I've already grown up."

Mo Yuan agreed, "Yes, that's why you shouldn't go to a man's room alone. It's dangerous."

Han Luo blinked twice before asking, "Are you telling me that I shouldn't go to your room from now on? What will happen if I go to your room? Big brother Yujin doesn't mind when I go to his room and stay there."

Mo Yuan noticed his mistake and changed his words before it was too late, "… Let me change what I said. You must not go to any man's room except mine."

"Why would you be the exception?" Han Luo was utterly confused. "Big brother Yuan, if you want me to treat you especially, you have to treat me especially."

He looked at her in the eyes. "Don't I treat you especially?"

"Do you?" Han Luo pretended to remember. "Nah, I don't think so."

"Just how many people can I permit to come inside my room?"

"Mm…" Han Luo started to count. "Mom, dad, Ben, Martha… other than me, four people come inside your room. Big brother Yuan, you don't treat me especially at all." She looked innocent, but her eyes were laughing.

"…" Mo Yuan was speechless. He was being serious but this girl was making fun of him. He pinched her cheek and asked, "Just who do you think I am? How many people out there have the privilege to sit by my side and talk like we do?"

"Mom and dad do. And what do you mean privileged? Just how many people do you think I let inside my bedroom? Don't act so high and mighty!" Han Luo chided him.

Mo Yuan pulled her closer. "I'm not acting high and mighty. I'm just saying that Martha and Ben come to my room because of their duties and mom and dad come because I'm their son. However, only you have the freedom to come to my room whenever you wish. Others won't do it and I won't allow them to do it either."

"Also," he lowered his voice and continued, "did you ever see me touching others or did you ever see me kissing others?"

Han Luo shook her head. "No, I didn't but big brother Yuan, you will kiss your girlfriend in the future."

"Of course, I will," Mo Yuan replied without hesitation.

Han Luo looked upset.. "But then she will be more special than I am."
