"Big brother Yuan, hug me," Han Luo demanded in a spoiled manner.

Mo Yuan did as she said and asked, "Why aren\'t you studying?"

"I don\'t feel like studying," Han Luo replied truthfully. Something was weighing on her heart that made heart turmoil.

Mo Yuan questioned her, "Shall I conduct a small oral test for you? I\'ll ask you some questions and you have to answer."

"Okay," she easily agreed. She wanted to distract herself.

Mo Yuan walked around, took her book from the table, and sat beside her.

Han Luo lowered her body and placed her head on his lap.

Mo Yuan knew her syllabus. Han Luo informed him of the topics that she had completed revising for the exam. He questioned her while stroking her head and she answered without a mistake.

Half an hour later, he closed the book and praised her, "Marvelous! As expected, you answered everything perfectly."

"I\'ve studied every day," she stated.

Mo Yuan sensed that she didn\'t smile after he came to her room and appeared seemingly distracted about something.

He turned her head slightly in his lap to make her face him. He asked her while staring right into her eyes, "What\'s wrong? Are you nervous because of the exam? There is nothing to worry about. I know you can nail it."

Han Luo slightly shook her head. "I\'m not worried about it."

Mo Yuan inquired, "What is it then? It\'s your birthday. Did you want to have a grand birthday party?"

Han Luo strongly denied and explained, "No! I don\'t care as long as you all are here, beside me, on my special day."

"Then why are you glum? Did… Xiao Yujin say anything to you?" he finally mentioned the main issue he wanted to talk with her right after coming here.

Han Luo looked at him in surprise. "How do you know?"

Mo Yuan narrated shortly, "I saw him going upstairs. After he came down, his expression didn\'t look good."

Han Lu sighed and sat up. She lowered her head and spoke in a low tone, "Big brother Yujin… he… proposed to me again."

"What?" Mo Yuan\'s heart skipped a bit. Just like her, it was unexpected to him. He didn\'t think that Tang Yujin would have the guts to propose to her again.

She described, "He wanted to marry me and he also promised that he would make grandpa Tang accept my other side."

He questioned her, "What did you say?" He noticed that his mouth was getting dry with each passing second due to nervousness.

Han Luo answered, "I declined and told him that I only saw him as my elder brother."

"Good job. Is that why you were gloomy?" Mo Yuan patted her head. He secretly sighed in relief. 

He thought to himself, \'What\'s wrong with Xiao Yujin? How could he distract her right before her exam? I didn\'t think he was so insensible? Why is he so desperate to marry her? He could at least confess how he felt about her before going out with her and then ask for her hand in marriage. I didn\'t think he would be so old fashioned when it came to romance.\'

Han Luo sighed again and said, "I don\'t know. I feel weird. I can\'t concentrate on books anymore."

"If that\'s the case, then I will help you." Mo Yuan suggested, "If you get the highest mark in the upcoming exams, I will take you to Switzerland. We will go there together and no one will disturb us. How does that sound?"

"It sounds great!" Han Luo\'s eyes sparkled. She snatched the book from Mo Yuan\'s hands immediately and said, "Let me finish reading the last three chapters."

She leaned against his chest and relaxed her body. Mo Yuan hugged her waist and made her sit in between his legs.

After she finished reading the last chapter an hour later, she closed the book and declared, "Done!"

Mo Yuan said, "Good job."

Han Luo twisted her body to face him. She spoke, "Big brother Yuan, didn\'t I tell you that I would ask you what I want for my birthday? I want you to take me to a faraway place near the woods during the summer vacation. Can you take me with you?"

He paused and deeply looked at her. He asked her in a hoarse voice, "Just the two of us?"

"Umm, just the two of us," Han Luo softly replied. She couldn\'t take her eyes off his dark and deep unfathomable eyes.

Mo Yuan\'s lips lifted enigmatically. He agreed, "That can be arranged. You finish your exams first. I will take you once the summer vacation starts."

"Thank you, big brother Yuan. You are the best." Han Luo finally grinned.

Mo Yuan ran his fingers through her hair as if coaxing her and said, "Go to sleep. Aren\'t you sleepy? You have to wake up early."

Han Luo inched closer and her body was pressed against him. She said in a coquettish manner, "I don\'t want to sleep. I want to stay up and look at the stars with you."

It was ten in the evening. The sun had just begun to set. It would take some time for the sky to become completely dark and show some stars and the moon.

"Fine, I will stay with you," Mo Yuan gave her his consent. After playing with her hair for a while, he cupped her face and then pulled her closer. He placed her on his lap and embraced her soft body.

He planted a warm kiss on her forehead and said, "Happy birthday, Ah Luo."

"Thank you, big brother Yuan," she said. They stayed like this, hugging each other, as they gazed at the sky.

Han Luo saw the moon and stars with him for as long as she wished and gradually fell asleep.

Upon noticing her soft breathing, Mo Yuan carried her to the bed and placed her on the soft mattress. He covered her with the blanket and he also went under the blanket.

While sleeping Han Luo moved closer to him to seek warmth and snuggled close to him.

Mo Yuan lowered his head and kissed her lips for one last time before closing his eyes.
