The next day, Mo Yuan woke up early. Han Luo was snuggling close to him and sleeping. Maybe she wasn't able to sleep in the hospital. In a familiar place, around a familiar present, she was deeply sleeping.

A small smile crept on his lips. With the back of his hand, he caressed her cheek.

Maybe feeling the warmth or the dear touch made her happy. She sweetly smiled even though she was sleeping.

Mo Yuan moved and brushed his lips over her supple cheek.

"Mm… hmm…" Han Luo made a muffled sound and ducked her head on the pillow subconsciously.

Mo Yuan chuckled, finding her action cute. He wished he could stay with her like this the whole day but he needed to face his parents after the incident of last night.

He reluctantly got up from the bed and freshened up. After that, he went downstairs and met his parents in the dining room.

As soon as Ma Rui saw her son she complained, "Why are you so early? Shouldn't you be sleeping?"

"…I always have breakfast around this time." Mo Yuan pulled his chair and sat down.

Ma Rui snapped at him, "How unromantic! How could you leave your lady alone in the bedroom and calmly sit with your parents? I regret giving birth to you."

"Cough!" Martha coughed hard. Ma Rui's comment threw her off guard. She was wondering why they didn't find Han Luo in her room but Ma Rui still told them she was sleeping. Only now she understood that Han Luo was sleeping with Mo Yuan. 'So shameless! Well, I never expected anything good from her,' she thought.

On the other hand, Rose, who was ready to serve food blushed after hearing Ma Rui's words.

"I thought you two needed an explanation. If you don't like me eating with you, I can go to my room," saying that Mo Yuan pretended to get up.

Ma Rui quickly caught his hand. "What do you mean you want to go to your room now? Sit down and tell us everything." She was dying to know about her son's love story.

Mo Yuan knew what his mother was thinking. That's the very reason he came down to have breakfast with them.

"So, who chased who?" Ma Rui asked.

"…" Mo Yuan could see his mother's eyes sparkling like a child waiting to hear the bedtime story. He sipped in the glass and drank some water before answering, "I'm the one who chased after her."

"Then, she accepted your proposal, didn't she?" Mo Zhen added. He was also interested to know the whole story.

Mo Yuan shook his head. "No, I confessed to her three years ago and in reply, she told me to wait four years."

"F-four years!" Ma Rui gasped. She blamed her son, "Most certainly you have done something wrong. Maybe you didn't give her a bouquet or gift or didn't take her to candlelight dinner."

Mo Yuan acknowledged his mistake. "Yes, it was a mistake on my part and that made me realize that I shouldn't make her suffer."

"That's good." Ma Rui seemed satisfied. "I taught her well. She should make you suffer from time to time or else you will forget your place."

Mo Yuan thought, 'Mom, just who is your child?'

While having breakfast, Ma Rui noted, "I have to prepare nutritious food and some balm then. She needs energy. Her waist must be hurting as well."

Mo Yuan's eyebrows creased. "Why would her waist hurt? Mom, do you think I would hurt her?"

Ma Rui looked puzzled. "What do you mean by hurt? Hadn't you two already done the deed? She must be suffering now."

Mo Yuan sighed. "Mom, your imagination is running wild. We didn't do anything this sort of to make her suffer."

It's not that he didn't want to do it. Every time he saw her, he wished to devour her. He was just waiting for the right time.

His proposal was clumsy. That's why he decided to make their every moment special.

Mo Zhen told his wife, "Darling, I told you that our son wouldn't go that far yet."

"What?! Are you telling me that you two are still virgin?!" Ma Rui looked devastated.

"What's wrong with being a virgin?" Mo Yuan shrugged.

Ma Rui disclosed, "Your father and I lost virginity when we were seventeen!"

Mo Yuan shut his eyes and frowned. The last thing he wanted to hear about was his parents' love life. He believed that he had already seen enough.

Sometimes, he envied his parents. He also blamed his lack of judgment. He thought that he shouldn't confess to her fast but he was wrong. He hurt her in the process of waiting. He had to suffer three years in return.

His parents had an intimate relationship since high school. How could he not envy them?

He quietly looked at his father who devoured his mother before they matured.

"Son, don't accuse me. I tried to hold back till we turn eighteen but your mother wouldn't listen," Mo Zhen defended himself.

"Of course," Ma Rui said, "If I didn't seduce you, you would act like a deity."

"Darling…" Mo Zhen felt like he lost his dignity in front of his son.

"I think I've heard enough for today," Mo Yuan declared.

Ma Rui stated, "Listen, Xiao Yuan, if you don't mark what's yours, you will eventually lose it. Luo'er is growing up. For work or personal purposes, she has to meet different types of people. If there is a better guy than you appear in front of Luo'er, what if she tries to ditch you?"

"She can try ditching me," Mo Yuan said. He would keep her within his reach if she tried to do something like that behind his back.

"It's a good thing that you have faith in her. That's how every couple should be. But, people's feelings change.. Remember that."
