My Beloved

"Who do you live with? Since you don't have a family?" a boy asked.

Han Luo answered, "I live with my uncle's family. They were taking good care of me since I was a kid."

He nodded. "That makes sense. It's a good thing that you are not alone."

"Yes." She smiled.

A girl suddenly mentioned something else. "Hang on there – are you telling me that you are Sheng's cousin, not his actual sister?"

The girls around her started to ask, "You mean Sheng Ming? Why would she live with him?"

"Sheng Ming said that he has a little sister. You can't be her, can you?"

Han Luo replied, "Oh, you are talking about big brother Ming."

The girls heard her and gasped, "Big brother Ming!"

"Oh! That's so cute!"

"But she lives with him."

One of them asked her, "Why does he call you 'little sister'? He is your cousin."

Han Luo replied, "He always called me that ever since I was born."

Another one questioned her, "How about his sisters?"

"My other cousins are in China. They are studying there." Han Luo started to sweat, despite the weather being cool. This was harder than the interrogation she faced in front of Mr. Archie Levine.

"Why didn't they move here to London?" They seemed very curious about Han Sheng Ming.

Han Luo shook her head helplessly, "I don't know. I haven't asked my uncle. He is so busy every day that I don't have the time to talk to him." Han Luo was correct. After Han Changhong left, he completely drowned himself in his workload.

"What about Yuan? Or Yujin?"

"Do you know them as well?"

"Do you have a good relationship with them?"

'Someone save me!' Han Luo felt like crying. She could understand why Tang Yujin was popular but the fact that lightheaded Han Sheng Ming and ice cube Mo Yuan were popular with girls – she could never understand that. She couldn't even start to understand why they were popular among the girls.

"Aren't you guys going overboard? Let her relax," an elegant voice said.

Everyone looked at the direction from where the voice had come. Han Luo did the same, but her eyes widened as soon as she saw the girl. It was the fairy from the picture book – the blonde, half Japanese girl. Han Luo remembered that the girl's name was Nana. She looked very pretty in that uniform and her hair was practically glowing like Rapunzel's magical hair.

"You are the girl I bumped into the zoo that day!" Han Luo couldn't help but say. She didn't see her up until now. She was surprised to see her in the same class. 'What a coincidence!' she thought delightfully.

Nana looked at her with her beautiful black eyes. She smiled a little, making all the boys crush over her again. She replied, "Yes, I know." She recognized Han Luo the moment she saw her. Her eyes landed on the rest of the students around Han Luo. She politely and elegantly continued, "Breaktime is almost over. Go to your next classes."

As she said that, the bell rang. The student went off to their respective classes, but Han Luo was lucky that her next class was in the same room. She couldn't tell how the break passed so quickly.

Soon, the teacher had come, and everyone became quiet. The girl behind her whispered, "How did you get to know her?"

Han Luo also whispered, "We just bumped into each other."

The girl behind her was an Irish girl. Her skin was pale, her hair was light brown and she wore round glasses. She exclaimed in a low tone. "Damn! You are lucky."

Han Luo asked, "Why?"

The girl excitedly said, "You don't know? Oh yeah, you are new here… Listen – she is Nana Shimizu Smith, the only daughter of Luther Smith. He is a famous businessman and super rich. She is his only daughter. Her mother is Yuki Shimizu – or Shimizu Yuki whatever. She got both of her parents' family names because she is known as the blessed child in her family. Both families of her parents are wealthy. Nana is our idol and the number one beauty in our school. All the boys worship her, and all the girls envy her."

Han Luo was amazed that Nana was so amazing. She suddenly noticed something and questioned her, "Do you guys prefer beautiful people over intelligent people?"

The girl sneered, "Heh? You don't know? Listen, no one cares about a bunch of geeks in this school. Looks are everything. Those intelligent boys are nerds or tryhards. Not cool. Yeah, pretty messed up. We don't go for people if they're smart, we go for the good looking, fit boys. If they're smart, that's just a bonus, but it ain't necessary."

"…Seriously?" Han Luo was stunned.

[A/N: That was exactly my reaction when I learned this fact from the Editor.]

She thought of her big brothers and asked, "Then why are big brother Ming, Yujin, and Yuan so popular? Is it because of their good looks?"

The girl smirked. "That's natural. But there is more. I'll take you somewhere after school. You will find out why they are popular."

Han Luo agreed almost immediately, "All right, I'll go with you." There was nothing she didn't want to know about her big brothers.

Finally, the girl introduced herself, "By the way, the name is Beth."

"Nice to meet you, Beth. I'm Luo," Han Luo said.

The two of them went out together after class ended. First, Beth took her to the School Council meeting room. They peeped inside the room. Han Luo saw Tang Yujin sitting with others. It seemed that they were having a serious meeting about the school's next big event.

Tang Yujin looked like a prince who was in a meeting with his ministers about the wellbeing of his citizens. Han Luo felt that her eyes couldn't see anymore because of his princely aura.. The whole place around him was sparkling.
