Han Luo dragged her tired body to her hotel room. She entered her hotel room and closed the door. As she was about to turn on the lights, some people attacked her.
"Ah!' feeling terrified, she let out a shout and tried to fight back.
At that time, the lights were turned on. Han Luo could see her attacker's face.
They were four men.
Truth be told, they were four young men. They were way younger than her. They looked like rich kids. The four of them almost had the same features. Two of them gave her a mischievous look, the other two gave her an innocent look.
"Pretty sister!" they called her in unison in different octaves.
Han Luo blinked. She cocked her head and mumbled, "Xiao Lian, Xiao Ling, Xiao Uan, and Xiao Lin?" She was surprised as she uttered those names.
The boys squealed in joy.
"Yay! Pretty sister remembers us!" Mu Ling, the second son, gave a toothy grin.
"I knew she would! She could never forget how dashing I am." Mu Laquan, the third child, was feeling proud. He was beyond happy but trying to cover it up by showing his heart-piercing smirk.
"Pretty sister always has a good memory," Mu Lian, the first son, commented. Although he was quiet, his eyes were smiling.
"I'm glad she remembers us. I was afraid that she wouldn't recognize us." Mu Lin, the fourth child's face slightly blushed in shyness.
After being hugged by four boys, Han Luo was finally able to breathe. "I didn't expect to see you here. Thank you for the warm welcome, boys."
Mu Lian replied as he served the snacks he bought. "We found out from papa that you are coming. So, we thought of throwing a welcome party."
The hotel suite she was given was quite luxurious. There was a bedroom, washroom, huge bathroom, attached balcony with the view of the Eiffel Tower, and living room. They were sitting in the living room and chatting merrily.
It's been years since they last saw them. When she was living in Paris, she would sometimes babysit them. She had to or else they would be alone with the servants. Their father always took their mother away from them. From then on, they had become her good buddies.
Han Luo couldn't help but smile at those ten years old quadruples. She clapped her hands. "That's wonderful! I'm so touched. But, what about your classes? You guys didn't skip school, right?"
"We did," Mu Ling immediately replied. There was no hesitation as he spoke the truth.
Mu Laquan went along with his brother. "Definitely did."
"But we had mommy's permission," the innocent Mu Lin replied with a bashful smile.
Han Luo blinked several times. Just as she thought, Mu Lan pampered her sons. Although she was strict if they brought harm to others, she got along with their pleas. As long as they gave her the result she wanted, she would allow them to do anything. She shook her head saying, "Your mom allowed it… unbelievable. She is the coolest mom in the world."
Mu Laquan admitted, "She is!"
"Absolutely agree on that." Mu Ling crossed his arms and nodded like an elder.
Han Luo recalled how Ma Rui defended her and reprimanded her own husband and son. She commented, "I also have a mom who takes great care of me. I'm so lucky to have a supportive mother like her."
Mu Laquan stated, "Oh, you mean the mother of your ugly boyfriend? So, she is good to you. She has good taste. She chose you over her ugly son."
Han Luo giggled. "Come on, he isn't that ugly. And, how do you know that we are going out?"
Mu Laquan answered honestly, "I hacked into Mo Corporation's private website for the employees and found out about your engagement."
After a pause, he added, "Pretty sister, there are so many good guys out there. Why did you choose him?"
"Oh," Han Luo controlled her laughter and asked, "Is he that bad?"
Mu Laquan put on a serious expression. "He is. He is so grumpy and cold. He will torture you to death."
Han Luo realized it was a serious discussion. She asked for his opinion, "Then, who do you think I should get married to?"
"Why are you thinking so far? The right man is right here." Mu Laquan proudly pointed at himself. He had no lack of self-confidence. "You just need to wait another twelve years so that I can be an established man. I'll give you the best wedding in the world."
Han Luo curiously asked, "Like a wedding your father arranged for your mother?"
Mu Laquan denied, "Nope, better than that. He married mom on the ship. I will marry you in the submarine. I know you love water."
"Ahahaha!" Han Luo burst into laughter. She couldn't control herself any longer. This was just too much to handle.
She was glad that Mo Yuan was nowhere near them. If he heard their conversation, he would be mad at the boys and scared of her leaving him at the same time.
"…" other three boys stayed silent and pitied their brother. Mu Laquan had a crush on their pretty sister since he was four. Well, their pretty sister was a beauty, friendly, charming, hardworking, and intelligent. She could make their favorite desserts. There was no way no man would fall for her. If she got married to her ugly boyfriend, their brother would become heartbroken.
Mu Lian changed the topic, "I saw you disguised as a man in the picture. Why did you disguise yourself?"
"That's because I didn't want others to know my movements. I wanted to improve secretly," Han Luo replied. "But how did you know it was me?"
"We found out the moment we set our eyes on that pic," Mu Ling answered. "The people you are close with must be blind not to recognize you."
"…" Han Luo wanted to shed tears. She thought, 'And I thought my disguise was perfect.'
[A/N: It's not your fault dear. These cutie pies are just too intelligent.]
"Is that why Hugo wasn't surprised seeing me?" she inquired.
