"And what are you wearing? Why don't you start buttoning up your shirt first? Are you here to show off?" Han Luo's temper rose after seeing her female classmates staring at Mo Yuan as if they were raping him with their eyes. Since she couldn't tell them anything, she had to scold her big brother Yuan.
She stepped forward and in front of everyone, she buttoned Mo Yuan's shirt. She didn't miss any single button. Not only his collarbones were hidden behind his shirt but also his neck.
Mo Yuan: "…"
Han Sheng Ming: "…"
Jared: "…"
Girls: "…"
Boys: "…"
Mo Yuan was deeply moved by her possessiveness. There was a hint of a slight smile on his lips. It disappeared quickly.
He pulled Han Sheng Ming's shirt together that was draped over Han Luo's body and buttoned it without a word.
Han Luo opened her mouth to complain but was shut up by Mo Yuan when he said, "You have to do the same if you want me to cover my body."
Han Luo sulked but she had to do as he wished since she didn't want others to see what's hers.
Beth was covering her face as she stood on the sideline. 'Oh my God! What did I just see? They are just too much for my poor innocent heart.'
"Since our seniors are here, why don't we have a match?" a male student suggested. He couldn't take this pressure anymore and tried to ease the tense atmosphere.
"Sure, I will play with you guys," Han Sheng Ming came back to his senses and agreed to play with them.
Jared cleared his throat and came up with an idea, "Why don't we go surfing? I can assume that Yuan knows how to do it."
His tone was provocative. It didn't miss Mo Yuan's ears. 'Is he challenging me?' he thought. He narrowed his eyes and nodded without a word.
Girls screamed in excitement.
"Kyaaa! We will see Yuan surfing!"
"But his chest is covered."
"I can't believe what Luo just did. Why is she like this? So annoying!"
"That's right! What right does she have to cover his chest?"
While those girls were criticizing Han Luo, Mo Yuan and Jared got ready for surfing.
"Be careful," Han Luo said.
Jared looked at her and asked, "Why are you telling Yuan to be careful? He isn't a kid. Don't tell me he is scared of the ocean."
"Oh no, you are misunderstanding. I was talking to you. I know that big brother Yuan is the best when it comes to surfing. I'm worried that you will drown in the ocean while playing."
Jared: "…" He was left speechless.
Mo Yuan shifted and placed a hand on top of her head. He advised her, "Stay near Xiao Ming. Don't go anywhere else. Stay far away from the quiet places and don't let other men approach you."
Jared: "…" He wasn't sure how much longer he could take it.
Noticing that she was going to crack at any moment, Mo Yuan gently stated, "I'm worried. You look too pretty."
"!!!" Han Luo's face instantly flushed. She couldn't imagine how he could say that with a straight face.
"…Fine, I'll stay nearby," Han Luo bashfully lowered her eyelids and poked his chest.
Mo Yuan's lips curled up enigmatically. His palm caressed her soft cheek before he headed toward the ocean.
"Gosh! You two are really...!" Beth stepped forward and commented with a blushing face. "It's so hard to get near you when the two of you are together."
Han Luo was already feeling embarrassed. She said, "Let's go to the café. I want to eat some ice cream."
"Sure," Beth agreed. "We have to hurry or it will be scorching hot at noon."
They went to the café and ordered their favorite ice cream. While they did so, they heard some girls talking at another table.
"Did you see Yuan's abs? He is goddamn sexy."
"I know right? I wish I could be his girlfriend even for one night."
"You mean one night stand."
"I don't think one night is enough for me."
The girls giggled and made some comments about Mo Yuan and Han Sheng Ming.
Han Luo's good mood was ruined thanks to them.
Beth began to sweat. She urged her angry friend, "Hey now, don't get upset over something like that. I know it makes you disgusted but let's just ignore them."
"Are you two having fun?" a girl asked.
Han Luo and Beth turned around and saw Nana. She was wearing a white swimsuit and had a brown hat on her head. Her blonde hair was waving at the wind.
Beth answered, "We have just started. What about you, Nana?"
"I'm having fun," Nana replied and glanced at Han Luo. She told her, "Enjoy with your friend."
"You too," Han Luo replied.
After she left, Beth asked her, "What? Don't you guys have bad blood?"
Han Luo shook her head. "Not at all. I don't find any reason to be an enemy of her. Our guardians get along because of the business partnership. We can't just ruin it with our immaturity."
She added, "Moreover, just because someone makes one mistake doesn't mean that they cannot be forgiven. We make mistakes too. And, she didn't rob me or injured me physically. There is nothing wrong in forgiving her. I will just be more cautious around her, that's all."
"You have logic but sometimes it's hard to forgive, especially for girls," Beth remarked.
"As long as you think it's hard, it's harder than the rock. As long as you think it's easy, it will be easier than the wind blowing," Han Luo lectured.
