My Beloved

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The clock struck at midnight. 

Han Luo felt someone softly caressing her back. She heard someone speaking gently, "Ah Luo, it's time to wake up."

"Hmm," she hummed. She moved slightly and changed her position.

"Wake up or you won't be able to greet me," the owner of the voice ticked her ear.

"Nn… no…" Han Luo flinched and snuggled close to the warm body. 

She felt something soft on the top of her head. She didn't know why. She was too tired to think of anything. That's when she heard the person say, "Wake up or I will open the Christmas gift without you."

Only then Han Luo remembered that she had to wake up because she wanted to spend the night with Mo Yuan.

"Mm… big brother Yuan," she could barely open her eyes. 

Mo Yuan pulled her closer and kissed her right eyes. He asked in a gentle yet deep voice, "Are you awake now?"

"Hnn," she felt too comfortable under the comforter. It was cold outside but inside she had her big brother Yuan's warmth. She liked his odor that was merged with the comforter and the bed. She rubbed her nose on his chest like a spoiled kitten.

Mo Yuan's heart skipped a beat. His gaze deepened as he looked at her pursed lips. He leaned forward and pecked on her other eye. He repeatedly kissed her both eyes until she properly opened her eyes. 

Han Luo breathed out and naturally encircled her arms around his neck. She breathed on his neck and called out in a sweet and spoiled manner, "Big brother Yuan…"

Just one phrase and Mo Yuan's whole body went numb. Her mouth was close to his right ear. Her lips slightly touched his earlobe. Her soft chest was pressed against his chest. Her legs were tangled with his. He could smell a faint odor of Bela flowers coming from her body. It was addicting. 

Mo Yuan felt thousands of bugs crawling on his body eating away his reasoning little by little. He was thinking that he was getting drunk. Under the comforter, he held her slender body tightly. His dark eyes swept over her pink lips and he called out in a hoarse voice, "Ah Luo."

Han Luo's lips once again brushed over his ear and he flinched. He realized that his ears were sensitive. He heard her soft, smooth voice, "Merry Christmas." 

'So, that's what she wanted to say,' Mo Yuan thought to himself. He sighed and buried those unrestrained thoughts deep inside his heart. He put his head on her shoulder and thought how pure her thoughts were and how deadly her actions were.

He suddenly found it funny and chuckled. He kissed her left ear and said, "Merry Christmas." When he noticed that she didn't move, he asked, "Don't you want me to open the gift box?"

Han Luo pouted. Truthfully, she didn't want to move at all. However, she wanted him to open the box. Therefore, she reluctantly moved away from him and sat up. She rubbed her eyes and urged him, "Hurry up and open it."

"As you wish, my princess," Mo Yuan got out of the bed and poured a glass of water. He gave it to Han Luo. 

Han Luo was thirsty. She always drinks water after waking up. She was surprised that he knew it. After she drank water, Mo Yuan wiped her mouth with his thumb and then drank the remaining water. 

After that, he sat down on the couch and pulled the green string of the gift box. Inside the wrapper, it was a wooden box. He unlocked it and opened it. He was astonished after what he saw inside.

It was a music box. Inside the box, there was a bronze man playing piano and there was a bronze woman dancing ballet. The music was the same one Mo Yuan played in the finale. Looking at the box, it reminded him of that magical time. 

Mo Yuan gazed at the music box for a long time. It kept playing since the box was open. He didn't notice when Han Luo sat beside him. When she hugged his left arm and placed her head on his arm, only then he sensed her. He silently glanced at her.

Han Luo's eyes were filled with expectation. "So, did you like it?" She ordered it ten days ago and paid so much money to get it before Christmas. This custom made music box is one of a kind.

Mo Yuan finally smiled and placed his right hand on her left cheek. His thumb caressed her supple cheek. "Hmm, I liked it very much. This is the best present I've ever had." He said from the bottom of his heart.

Han Luo grinned. "I knew it! I knew you would love it! I personally designed it. How can you dislike it?" She proudly spoke. 

Mo Yuan saw her boosting and hid his laughter. He finally said, "I have something for you too."

Han Luo paused and then grabbed his arm. "You have a present for me? What is it? Can I have it now?"

"Yes, you can have it now," Mo Yuan stood up and walked to the drawer next to the bed. Han Luo didn't let his arm go and tagged along with him. When he opened the drawer, she poked her head. It was a small jewelry box. 

"Sit down," Mo Yuan gently told her. 

Since they were near the bed, Han Luo sat on the bed. Mo Yuan knelt on the floor right in front of her. 

"What are you doing?" Han Luo blinked. She couldn't understand what he was doing.

Without a word, Mo Yuan took her left leg and placed it on his right thigh. After that, he opened the box and Han Luo saw a platinum anklet with small pink diamonds. There were twelve pink diamonds attached to it. It symbolized Han Luo's asking for twelve years of compensation. 

Slowly and carefully, Mo Yuan put the anklet around her ankle and locked it.
