The dinner party was set to be celebrated late into the evening. Jared and Zenna also joined the party along with their parents. They didn't leave Paris yet due to their fathers' business matters.

Round tables are arranged intricately with Christmas accessories and Christmas specials to be feasted upon. Everyone were wearing red and green and white clothes to match Christmas Eve. After giving each other presents, they finally started to eat.

All the elders were seated around one table and the children at another table. The formerly table was festive and seemed very lively as they talked and laughed together.

However, this was not the case on the other table. Things took a different turn in here as tension is thick in the air.

Han Luo was sweating. She was a bit late and so the only seat that was empty for her was a seat between Mo Yuan and Jared. Since it was the only seat left by the time she came, she had to bite the bullet and take the seat.

Beside Mo Yuan was Han Sheng Ming and beside him was Tang Yujin. Tang Yujin was sitting beside Zenna and Zenna was beside Jared.

Right now a silent war can be observed at the youngsters' table and the warzone was Han Luo's dinner plate. Mo Yuan and Jared are peeling shrimps and crabs for her, as though they were in a peeling competition.

"Ah Luo, eat more." Mo Yuan gave her another peeled shrimp. He was peeling shrimps for her continuously knowing how much she liked it.magic"Luo, do you like shrimp that much? How about crab? Let me give you some." Jared placed five to six crab meats on her plate, as though he didn't see the already piled up peeled shrimps."…" Han Luo's plate was filled with food and she couldn't finish them on her own. She had to admit that she had never encountered such an awkward situation before. She had no idea why these two were having a competition and that too on her dinner.

Han Sheng Ming looked at Jared with hostility. He was warning Jared with his glares. His eyes were saying, 'How dare you to make a pass at my cute little Luo Luo?'

However, Jared didn't seem to mind him. He cared less about what three musketeers thought.

Zenna stayed quite from the start to the end. She never saw Mo Yuan so angry before. Though she was not sitting directly beside the said gloomy youngster, she is still sitting right across from him. She didn't even dare to look up. She wanted nothing but to hurry up and finish her meal as soon as possible so that she could escape this unexpected debacle.

The only calm one at this table was Tang Yujin. He was sitting there without revealing much of an expression, while calmly cutting his beef steak. He didn't mind what those two boys were doing. On the contrary, he was enjoying it.

Han Luo tiredly picked a piece from the pile on her plate, which happened to be a crab meat piece to put in her mouth. It was on the top, so she naturally ate that without giving it much thought.

Jared looked happy that she chose crab meat. However, Mo Yuan's expression was black. It appeared as though a dark cloud went over him.

Both of them realized that the one placed on the top would be chosen. So they started it again, Mo Yuan put another peeled shrimp on her plate. Seeing that, Jared put another one crab meat on her plate.

Just like that, Han Luo's bowl turned into a 'shrimp crab tower' within a short period.

Not knowing what to do, she looked at Tang Yujin who was sitting right across her for help with pleading eyes.

Seeing her pitiful expression, Tang Yujin coughed softly. He suggested, "Why don't you two give little Luo a bit rest? She can't eat like this."

Han Sheng Ming also added, "Yes, save some crab meat and shrimps for us, will you? If you force little Luo Luo anymore, she won't be able to finish it and the food will be wasted."Han Luo quickly nodded. "Yes, yes, I will waste it and I hate wasting."

Mo Yuan said in a gentle and deep voice, "It's okay if you cannot eat. I'll eat your leftovers. This way, you won't waste it."

"…" Han Luo couldn't say anything else. She didn't want to talk to him. It gave her a disadvantage. She could neither accept nor oppose him.

Jared stopped pestering her from eating more crab meat. There was no way he could eat someone else's leftovers. After he backed down, the right corner of Mo Yuan's lips lifted ever so slightly. It wasn't noticeable but Tang Yujin's keep eyes didn't miss it. Tang Yujin could only helplessly shake his head.

In the end, Han could finish most of the dishes. At some point, Mo Yuan gave her vegetables since she liked vegetables and he took the crab meats from her bowl and ate them.

Jared could only glance at him scornfully and say nothing.

After the party was over, Han Luo tiredly went back to her room. Upon seeing the gifts on the bed, she decided to open them to see.

First, she opened Tang Yujin's present. It was a pair of earrings. The earring was designed as platinum rose. As for Zenna, it was a silver bracelet. She said that it was a good luck charm. Then from Jared, it was a pink teddy bear. Finally from Mo Zhen and Ma Rui, it was a golden flower hair accessory.

She packed them back into their respective boxes and placed them all in her bag. Suddenly, there was a knock on her door.

She glanced at the clock and saw it was late into the night. 'Who would come looking for me at this time of night?' Thinking that she quietly walked toward the door and slowly opened it.

To her surprise, there was no one in the corridor. She was a bit surprised. She turned left and right to look once again. As she turned around to go back inside, she found a bottle of medicine and a letter on the floor in front of her door. She took the letter.

It said, 'Take a tablet. It's good for digestion.'

There was no signature or name on it but she could tell that it was given by Mo Yuan. She knew his handwriting.

She knitted her eyebrows. She knew that she was still mad at him for what he said and what he didn't intend to say. She still took the bottle of medicines and entered her room.

'I really don't know what to do with him. How am I supposed to forgive him after what he said? He is interested in me because he wanted to know my secret.' Han Luo felt suffocated and she clenched her fists.

'No, no matter what happens, I will not talk to him anymore. I'll avoid him. No matter what he does, I won't give him the chance to get close to me anymore. However, I can't trouble big brother Ming and big brother Yujin because of this. They are friends. I'll just keep this a secret and avoid them when the three of them are together.. It won't raise any suspicion.'
