Mo Yuan asked in his mind, 'Why would I not want to eat my own wife? I'm not impotent.' He seemed very displeased.
"I saw you… I saw you today in the car…" Han Sheng Ming lowered his eyelids as he confessed in a low tone.
Even though he spoke quietly, Han Luo and Mo Yuan were able to hear what he said.
Han Luo's heart skipped a bit. 'Did he see us when we were kissing inside the car before going to the police station? Does that mean it wasn't Jasmine's plot?' she wondered.
When he was in school, he got an email from an anonymous sender. The contents were simple, with a picture along with a caption under it. It said – 'Your younger sister is being cheated on by your best friend.'
At first, when Han Sheng Ming saw this picture, he didn't really feel bothered much about it. He trusted Mo Yuan more than he believed in himself. He was sure that his friend wouldn't do such a thing.
However, as time passed, he kept remembering the email and the picture. And, it continued to distract him to the point he couldn't even concentrate on the class
When he thought of deleting the email, his eyes landed on Mo Yuan's left wrist. It seemed that the photo was taken from Mo Yuan's left side, he could see the wristwatch Mo Yuan was wearing very clearly.
'I feel like I had seen this before too. Where did I see this watch before?' Han Sheng Ming wondered deeply. While thinking, he started going through his cell phone's gallery. After seeing some pictures that he took of everyone at the festival before the fire incident, his eyes finally caught something.
There was a picture of Han Luo standing beside Zheng Mian. They were having fun and laughing merrily.
Han Sheng Ming zoomed the picture and observed Han Luo's left hand. Her wrist was wrapped with a wristwatch that looked exactly like Mo Yuan's. It was more like a duplicate.
'How is this possible? Did they buy from the same shop?' he pondered. He found himself trying to brush it off as a pure coincidence.
While he was still pondering about this discovery of his, the phone in his hand vibrated indicating he got another email. He checked it without listening to what the professor was saying. It was an email from Zheng Mian. She sent him a picture along with a text – 'I have ordered limited edition couple wristwatches. We can wear them and remember each other every single moment we are apart. Do you like them?'
Han Sheng Ming looked at the picture his girlfriend sent with a smile. 'Couple wristwatches? They are familiar… just like little Luo Luo and Xiao Yuan's…' Only then did he realize what was going on. The smile disappeared from his face within seconds.
However, he was struck by lightning when he saw Han Luo go inside Mo Yuan's car. After that, they flirted, hugged, and kissed just like a passionate couple. He felt something deep in his heart broken and shattered into pieces.
He couldn't understand his feelings and emotions. He felt stuffy and was unable to breathe properly.
One thing was for sure – more than being angry, he was hurt.
He felt betrayed and sadness overwhelmed his existence.
When he couldn't figure out why he was feeling such extreme pain, he became mad. He finally concluded that he was hurt because his best friend betrayed him after much consideration. His little sister was innocent since she was still a child. It meant that his friend manipulated her.
He blamed everything on Mo Yuan.
Afterward, he had been waiting for Han Luo to come home. Since she wouldn't be able to drive on her own, Mo Yuan would drive her back. He knew that for sure.
When they reached home, he opened the door and confronted them face to face.
He had to unmask Mo Yuan's true colors in front of Han Luo and show her that she was being delusional. He swore to himself that if he couldn't expose Mo Yuan's hidden intentions in front of Han Luo, he would change his name.
And now, he had finally told them what he had seen, "I saw you… I saw you today in the car…"
"Are you telling us that couples are forbidden to be affectionate with each other?" Mo Yuan finally spoke.
All this while he didn't speak because he thought that no matter what they said, Han Sheng Ming wouldn't listen to them. He was too hot headed and blinded by emotions. He was very different from Mo Yuan and Tang Yujin who would use their brain first before acting. Hence, he thought it would be better to let him cool off for a few days first and then explain to him coolly. He knew his soft and innocent friend. He would surely come around sooner or later.
Han Sheng Ming glared at him and warned venomously, "Don't you dare speak another word, you hear me? Just stay away from my sister."
Mo Yuan wouldn't let it go that easily. He kept questioning, "Are you saying you have the right to be affectionate with your girlfriend but your sister doesn't?"
He found Han Sheng Ming absolutely unreasonable. Although he understood his childhood best friend's reason behind the possessiveness, he couldn't accept that his friend could have all the fun when his sister and his best friend couldn't.
It was physical abuse in Mo Yuan's eyes.
Han Luo was absolutely adorable. If Mo Yuan was her big brother, he would have a hard time letting her have a boyfriend.
