When their ice creams were served, Han Luo\'s face darkened at the sight of almond nuts all over her chocolate ice cream. She looked at Mo Yuan\'s vanilla ice cream on which he got red cherries.
\'What luck!\' Han Luo pursed her lips. She reached out toward his ice cream cup with her spoon and took two cherries from it.
Mo Yuan saw her action but didn\'t say anything. He knew that she didn\'t like almonds and liked cherries instead.
While chatting, Beth, Zheng Mian, and Tang Yujin noticed that Han Luo was giving all her almonds to Mo Yuan and taking cherries from his ice cream cup.
On the way back home, Beth whispered close to Han Luo\'s ears, "How long are the two of you sharing food without permission?"
Han Luo hid her embarrassment and replied, "This is the first time that happened. When I or big brother Yuan chooses a meal for me, we always avoid ordering the dishes that have almonds in it."
"You guys are acting like an old married couple. Did you realize that?" Beth\'s heart raced when she voiced out her own speculations.
She thought, \'Just look at them. They don\'t even have to say it out loud to know each other\'s thoughts. They have some sort of spiritual connection just like a well experienced pair of love birds. How can such a couple exist? It\'s just like a fairytale! So dreamy!\'
When they arrived home, Zheng Mian pulled Han Luo to her room and closed the door. "All right girl, this time you have to confess when you guys have started dating behind all of our backs."
"We didn\'t," Han Luo answered honestly.
Zheng Mian shook her head. "Lie!" She refused to believe her friend\'s words.
Han Luo helplessly announced, "That\'s the truth."
"I don\'t believe it. You are saying that you two are hugging, kissing, and leaving marks of ownership on each other without even confessing and going out!" Zheng Mian stared at her friend in disbelief.
"He is the one who isn\'t confessing," Han Luo shoved all the blame onto Mo Yuan\'s shoulders. "He told me to wait. So, I\'m waiting. I don\'t want to ruin his four years of preparation."
Zheng Mian was speechless for a moment before commenting, "You are certainly the most patient girl I\'ve ever seen. If it was me, I would have walked out with another guy right in front of him to make him feel miserable."
"I think he is waiting because of my age," Han Luo put a hand on her cheek and shared her opinion.
"Huh? He is marking you all over and he is waiting? That\'s bulls**t!" Zheng Mian didn\'t buy that.
"Let\'s see what his plan is," Han Luo said.
She was patient with him. That\'s because it was him and no one else. She had lots of time, so she didn\'t mind waiting for a couple of months.
--------------
Han Luo\'s birthday came sooner than she expected. She was so busy preparing for her upcoming exams that she didn\'t have any time to think about her birthday.
And, the said exams would start from the very next day of her birthday. She couldn\'t bother herself with anything other than preparing for her exams for the time being.
Han Sheng Ming couldn\'t stand that Han Luo couldn\'t have a birthday party. He decided to buy a cake and hold a party by himself.
On the evening of 12th April, Han sheng Ming, Han Changhong, Tang Yujin, Zheng Mian, Noah, Sophia, Jack, Poppy, Eva, Ma Rui, Mo Zhen, and Mo Yuan surprised Han Luo by singing \'happy birthday to you\' song and bringing the cake in front of her.
She received the gifts and thanked everyone. After having dinner with them, she went back to her room and resumed her study again.
At that time, someone knocked on the door.
Thinking that it was Eva or Poppy, she said, "Come in."
The door was opened and someone strode toward her. An unexpected voice flowed into her ears, "Am I intruding?"
Han Luo was startled and turned around. Seeing Tang Yujin, she was genuinely surprised. She thought that he was uncomfortable around her and thus she didn\'t talk to him and avoided him.
She answered, "No, not at all. How are you feeling…" She wanted to say \'big brother Yujin\' but felt that her tongue was tied and couldn\'t continue her sentence. It was really awkward for some reason.
"I\'m good. I\'ve been exercising too," Tang Yujin replied.
"That\'s good to know," she responded with a smile.
Tang Yujin\'s eyes landed on her study table and inquired, "Did you already resume studying?"
"Yes, I want to sleep early," she stated.
"I have something to say and I need to tell you now. I won\'t take much time." Tang Yujin announced, "That day when you declined the marriage proposal and said that I would still be a big brother in your eyes, I realized that I was being narrow-minded. I should have accepted you the way you were. I don\'t know why I acted so impudently but I\'m really ashamed because of it. I hope our relationship becomes normal as before."
Han Luo was stunned before smiling. "I\'m glad that you came to accept me. However, it won\'t be like before since I won\'t be hiding my true self from you as I did previously."
Tang Yujin relaxed his stiff shoulders. "That\'s good… good… I was wondering if we can become true family members with the marriage proposal… I\'m not sure if it\'s okay with you but I want you to give me a second chance."
Han Luo was dumbstruck. She had never imagined that Tang Yujin not only accepted her so quickly but also proposed to her once again.
She became nervous at the unexpected proposal. Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that Tang Yujin would discuss the said proposal directly with her.
A few moments later, she opened her mouth and said, "Big brother Yujin, I…"
