"You guys..."
Zhao Luo smiled as his brothers rushed at him.
Si Chen and Feng Ma were jumping towards him as they sandwiched him while coming from opposite sides.
'I feel like I have scored a goal.'
Zhao Luo mumbled with an awkward smile.
Even though there wasn't any soccer match going on around the training zone, but he had indeed scored a goal, in life, by getting such good friends.
Zhao Luo looked around and found Mo Anna stopped a few steps away and glanced at her before taking slow steps towards her.
Zhao Luo reached her and looked at her eyes, which were burdened by a saddened look.
'It must be because of her mom.'
Zhao Luo thought while his hands reached for Mo Anna.
'Swoosh.'
Zhao Luo gently grabbed Mo Anna's shoulder as he brought his face closer to hers.
"Nobody will dare to decide your fate now, not even me."
Zhao Luo told her with a sharp tone.
'Who am I or anyone else to decide her fate?'
Zhao Luo nodded as he looked up but then Mo Anna's arms suddenly circled his back as she hugged Zhao Luo tightly.
Listening to Zhao Luo's words broke a wall inside her mind.
Tears started rolling down her face but no one could see them as she had burrowed her face in Zhao Luo's chest.
A wall that had kept her emotional side trapped behind it. Mo Anna's tragic self was behind that wall. A self that no one had witnessed before.
'What? She is quite ferocious.'
Zhao Luo could hardly hold his grin.
Even though he could feel a bitter pain in his heart while watching the trembling Mo Anna, he barely hold his innocent virgin grin back.
'Pat.'
Zhao Luo patted her head while the others behind him were making weird noises as they stared at this power couple.
"Wow."
Big Bean exclaimed while looking at Zhao Luo's back and Mo Anna's white hands.
Big Bean could only scratch his head with a blushed face.
"Brother sure is lucky. The princess of the Mo Family likes him and even Senior Cutie loves him."
Pi Hao mumbled as he took glances at Senior Cutie who was already looking at him with squinted eyes and a smile.
"Brother Zhao Luo sure knows how to play around."
Feng Ma complained as he looked around and found himself surrounded by only guys.
'Tsk.'
He clicked his tongue and kicked the rubble on the stage.
"These idiots."
Zhao Luo smirked as he couldn't understand the thought process of a human being who was single, anymore.
"I have evolved."
Zhao Luo muttered with a grin, oblivious to the fact that Mo Anna was staring at him with wet eyes while listening to his bullshit.
"Are you that happy?"
She questioned him with cute widened eyes while Zhao Luo looked at her.
'They can't see where her face is since my back is facing them. This could be my chance.'
Zhao Luo lowered his head to look at Mo Anna whose head was tilted upwards.
"Yes, a lot."
Zhao Luo answered her and brought his face closer to hers as he awkwardly twisted his lips.
'There.'
Even though a veil covered Mo Anna's face, Zhao Luo was an expert at finding hidden things.
While the others were busy making fun of each other being a single dude, Zhao Luo took giant leaps while treading on the path of a lover and a romanticist.
Before Zhao Luo's lips could even reach her face, Mo Anna pouted but Zhao Luo couldn't see it.
'Twitch.'
She pinched Zhao Luo's back causing Zhao Luo to be stunned like a rock.
Zhao Luo felt the pain and his twisted lips which were thirsty for a kiss drifted apart and a noise filled with pain escaped his mouth.
"Aaagh."
Zhao Luo glanced at Mo Anna while she released Zhao Luo's back and pulled back her arms.
'Cough.'
Zhao Luo cleared his throat as the others were focused on Zhao Luo after his sudden scream had given them a jump scare.
"Brother, what happened?"
Si Chen walked towards Zhao Luo with his neck extended.
While the others were busy making fun of each other, his eyes were stuck on his brother Zhao Luo and his advances.
'Did he weirdly twist his lips?'
Si Chen wondered as he approached them.
"It's nothing."
Rose's voice rang out making Si Chen halt in his place and Zhao Luo gently pushed her away.
"Yeah. It's nothing! Nothing at all!"
Zhao Luo muttered under his breath as he looked up while hiding the emerging tears from everyone else.
Right then a cute voice addressed Zhao Luo.
"Brother~"
Feng Mei and her grandfather, Feng Xiaoya were approaching Zhao Luo.
The other grand elders and elders of the Feng family had also tagged along with them as they were walking behind the two in order and with discipline.
'Wow perfectly synced steps.'
Zhao Luo exclaimed as he realized the footsteps of more than 20 elders behind Feng Mei were sounding out as one.
"How are you?"
Zhao Luo questioned Feng Mei as she finally reached him.
"I am fine. But brother you have grown so strong, that Wei Bin would start asking you to be his master."
Feng Mei giggled as she talked about Wei Bin causing Zhao Luo to remember the first time when he had met Wei Bin, the young guy at the moonstone challenge.
"I would love to teach him. If he can bear the pain."
Zhao Luo laughed in response as he replied to the little Queen.
While his talk with Feng Mei had started abruptly Zhao Luo was never a rude fellow thus he turned his head and gave a deep bow to her grandfather.
This was his first meeting with Feng Xiaoya but Zhao Luo didn't try to be ignorant and quickly followed up to show his respect.
"This is my grandfather, Grandpa Xiaoya."
Feng Ma said while the old man only nodded his head at Zhao Luo.
'Interesting.'
Feng Xiaoya thought as he lightly touched his long beard.
"It's an honor to meet you, elder."
Zhao Luo said loudly and with a cheerful tone.
'He is the same as the Sect Leader and the elders.'
Zhao Luo thought as he clasped his hand while facing them towards the elder.
