BXBX NOVEL Chapter 72 - MO YUAN'S INSTRUCTIONS
After Mo Yuan left, Han Luo rubbed her cheeks, noticing that they were burning. \'Geez! What\'s with him all of a sudden? He was never this chummy before.\' Her hands automatically went to her chest but stopped suddenly. When realizing that she was in someone else\'s room, she couldn\'t just rub her chest here. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and controlled her urge to rub her sore place.
In the meantime, Mo Yuan went downstairs and looked for Martha. As he stepped inside the kitchen, he found all the servants there. Upon seeing him, they all stopped their work. Benjamin asked cheerfully, "Young Master, did you like the SURPRISE?" He winked at Mo Yuan, but the boy ignored him.
Martha coughed dryly and asked, "Young Master, do you need something?"
"Yes, have you already prepared dinner?" Mo Yuan gazed at the chef.
The young chef hastily stood up. "Oh no, Young Master, I apologize. I didn\'t think you will eat early tonight. I\'ll cook right away."
"No, it\'s fine, I\'m not hungry. It\'s good that you didn\'t prepare anything. If you have a dinner menu, cancel it. Tonight, cook plain rice, fish soup, steamed broccoli, spicy beef pepper stir-fry, ginger cashew chicken salad and almond jelly. You don\'t have to make the almond jelly yourself, but you will find it in the supermarket," Mo Yuan calmly and composedly instructed her. The young chef quickly took a note.
"And Ah Luo will be staying here tonight." This sentence was for Martha.
Martha froze before replying, "I will prepare a guest room for her right away."
"There is no need for that. She is not a guest. She can stay with me tonight."
Benjamin whistled but Martha immediately rejected it. "Young Master, forgive me but I cannot allow you two to sleep together in the same room nor the same bed."
Mo Yuan retorted, "We are used to sleeping together since childhood."
Martha sternly declared, "That was when you were little, but now you have grown up so both of you have to be conscious about each other\'s presence. You cannot do whatever you did in childhood. If you act carelessly, both of your reputations will be at stake. Your mother hired me to take care of you. I cannot let anything bad happen to your reputation while you are under me."
\'Don\'t I already have three rivals… that Butler Noah, Han Sheng Ming and Tang Yujin? I don\'t think I can handle another one.\' Mo Yuan frowned at his thoughts before answering back, "Do whatever you wish. But she is going to stay here tonight, for sure."
As he turned around and left, Benjamin and Adam followed him. Benjamin was a twenty nine year old Spanish handsome fellow, with dark blonde hair and grass green eyes. He was famous in his friend circle for being a romanticist; writing romantic poetry was his favorite pass time. Next to him was Adam, a twenty eight year old fellow from Somalia. He had a sturdy body and was taller than Benjamin. His dark brown eyes could draw any woman to him. After started working here, he became good friends with Benjamin. While Benjamin took care of the laundry and cleaning the house, Adam took care of the garden and grew fruits and vegetables.
"Why are you two following me?" Mo Yuan bitterly questioned.
Benjamin put his arm on Mo Yuan\'s shoulder and asked, "You two are used to sleeping together, ey?"
Mo Yuan abruptly stopped. "What\'s wrong with that?"
Adam grinned. "Is she your lover? We have never seen you talking to girls and you always avoid your female classmates. Now out of the blue, a girl – who came here after your mother recommended her – went to your bedroom to prank you. And here you are, wanting her to sleep with you."
"My sixth sense is telling me something fishy is going on!" Benjamin playfully added.
"Don\'t think about it too much," Mo Yuan curtly declared, before taking Benjamin\'s arm away from him. As he walked away, he could hear Benjamin singing, "And can you feel the love tonight~"
"Shut it." Mo Yuan left before he had to hear any more of this.
When he went to his bedroom, he found Han Luo sitting by the window. She was reading a magazine that he bought. He didn\'t say a word but instead took a pair of clothes from his closet and gave it to her. "You need to change clothes. You can\'t sleep with the clothes you wore outside."
"Oh, thank you, big brother Yuan." Han Luo smiled and took the cotton pajamas from his hand. "Big brother Yuan became so generous. Is it because you are guilty that you didn\'t contact me for six years?" Her limpid eyes were laughing at him.
Mo Yuan pinched her left cheek while saying, "You have become very mischievous, haven\'t you, Ah Luo?"
Han Luo\'s heart skipped a beat. \'Did he find out?\' Then she quickly rejected the idea. \'No way, I did nothing to make him suspicious.\' She blinked innocently. "Big brother Yuan, how could I be mischievous? I\'m talking about your actions. You\'re acting different from the way you acted before and that has nothing to do with my way of acting."
"It has everything to do with your acting." Mo Yuan didn\'t say any more than this. He changed the topic and said, "I\'m going to take a shower. You can change your clothes here. No one will bother you."
Mo Yuan took his clothes and went to the bathroom. After a while, she could hear the gushing of the shower. Han Luo\'s started to ponder while hearing the sounds of the water, \'It has everything to do with my acting…\'
Her mind drifted to the time when she was acting sick after being bullied. She had stayed at the Mo Mansion that day. The next morning, she was bickering with Noah while Mo Yuan was at the door – he was at the door. \'It can\'t be…\'
She was changing her clothes absentmindedly when someone barged into the room. Martha was standing there with a glass of milk, only to see Han Luo changing her clothes with Mo Yuan\'s cotton pajamas in front of her. "Oh my goodness, what on earth are you doing?"
