Things were getting better before but this out of the blue situation had thrown the previous tranquility out of the question now. The atmosphere turned chilly and uncomfortable.

Han Luo was confused when she noticed that Tang Yujin was glaring at Mo Yuan coldly and Mo Yuan seemed slightly tense as well. For the first time in her life she got to see Tang Yujin get angry and to top it, he was even fighting with Mo Yuan.

'Why does it feel like I'm the root cause for this current scenario even though I did nothing?' she wondered.

She didn't wish them to have any kind of misunderstanding or tiff because of her. She would like it if they never turn against each other. Rather she would do anything to keep them together.

She opened her mouth and voiced her opinion, "Big brother Yujin, I think you are misunderstanding something here. Big brother Yuan never forced me to do anything. There is no way he will ever make me cry."

"Are you sure, little Luo?" Tang Yujin asked her carefully, "Did Xiao Yuan never do anything inappropriate to you which only a lover should do?"

Thinking about what he meant by 'inappropriate', Han Luo's face dyed red. Her voice quivered as she answered, "Big brother Yujin, I'm telling you the truth. There is no way big brother Yuan would do anything to me that I wouldn't want."

Tang Yujin couldn't trust her words. He knew that Mo Yuan and Han Luo's relationship wasn't pure. They had done many things that were beyond his imagination. He was only worried because he felt that Mo Yuan was taking advantage of Han Luo's innocence.

And, here he was, thinking that she was in good hands all this while. And, Mo Yuan wouldn't let her suffer. That's why he let her go and agreed to the marriage with Ling Brown.

Now he was reflecting on the decision he made three years ago.

"Are you sure that he didn't take any advantage of you?" Tang Yujin inquired. He promised that he wouldn't let this slide. The girl she cherished for so long might get hurt just because she liked someone mistakenly, he could never accept it.

"Yes, yes, big brother Yuan wouldn't take advantage of me. If he dared, I would have sliced him apart," Han Luo reassured him.

"Aren't you already doing so, even though I didn't do anything?" Mo Yuan asked her.

Han Luo frowned and lectured him sternly, "You made me wait three years for one simple answer and yet you dare to complain. It looks like I have to punish you later."

"I don't mind being punished by you," Mo Yuan replied.

'Did he taste honey before coming here?' Han Luo pondered.

Ling Brown finally relaxed seeing Han Luo and Mo Yuan bickering. She softly spoke to Tang Yujin, "You don't have to worry about them. They get along better than you can imagine."

"Can you imagine?" Tang Yujin asked. He wasn't smiling when he asked that, neither was his eyes.

Ling Brown sighed. She patiently explained, "Look, I know it's hard to forget the first love. I've never been in love before so I cannot understand your pain. However, don't you think you need to give them a chance? I can clearly see that Luo likes Yuan. They have a mutual understanding."

Tang Yujin sighed. 'What am I doing?' he blamed himself for acting so childishly. "I'm sorry," he apologized to her. "I didn't mean to create such a big issue out of this. I always look pathetic in front of you."

Ling Brown gathered some courage and held his hand. She stated, "I don't mind seeing your weakness. If we can share each other's burden, it will be easier for both of us. We are good friends. I would like us to get along like this in the future as well."

Tang Yujin looked at her for a while and then gazed at their locked hands. In the end, he nodded in acknowledgment. "Fine," he said. "Let's take care of each other."

At that time, Beth came inside. Noticing that something was off, her sixth sense perked up like an antenna trying to look for some trouble. She asked, "Did I miss something?"

"Not at all. Come here," Sean immediately said. He began to think that he was going to lose his mind. 

Beth dived into the pool and looked around. "I don't see Ming and Mian," she threw a remark. "Why didn't they still come back? Don't tell me they are doing something naughty?" she snickered while commenting.

Han Luo, Mo Yuan, Sean, Tang Yujin, and Ling Brown also realized that they were a bit late. Han Sheng Ming went to bring back Zheng Mian but still hadn't come back.

"I'll call him," Tang Yujin spoke. He took his cell phone and dialed Han Sheng Ming's number. However, no one was answering.

Han Sheng Ming couldn't pick up the call because he was busy with something else.

After Han Luo reminded him that Zheng Mian didn't know martial arts, he went to look for her.

However, he couldn't find her anywhere. He searched for her in his room, in her room, in the corridor, and the lounge. After looking for her for fifteen minutes, he got worried and decided to check the security camera.

He was afraid that something bad had happened to her. And, his fear came true.

While Zheng Mian was going upstairs to go to where the pool party was arranged, she met three men. They tried to make a pass at her but she firmly rejected them.

Seeing her cold expression from the security footage, Han Sheng Ming's heart rippled. He understood that she was the flirtiest when she was around him. She treated other men indifferently.

His blue veins popped when he saw those men forcefully took her into their room. The anger rose from the bottom of his heart.

"Call the police," he instructed the security officer and then dashed away.

He didn't wait for the elevator and climbed stairs all the way till the fifth floor.. When he reached that room, he heard a scream coming from inside.
