Awkwardly clearing his throat, Lucas quickly stated, "I should leave." But before he could take a single step, Flora arrived and hooked her arms around his.

"Seems like you guys already met, that is nice," Flora smiled. ​​

Raising her brows, Ning chuckled, "Now this is interested."

"So Flora, who is he?" Muchan curiously inquired.

"He is Lucas, my boyfriend," Flora answered.

Guang, Yichan, Muchan and Yufan hawled in excitement.

"This is so great, Lucas is dating our cute little Flora and they look so great, right Guiren?" Yichan chuckled.

Looking at the way everyone was grinning and laughing, Flora raised her brows, "Okay, what is going on? Do you guys already know Lucy?"

"Awww Lucy, is that your new nickname Lucas?" Nuying grinned.

"Oh wait, is this the reason why you cleaned your dirty apartment?" Ning inquired.

Widening her eyes in shock, Meili gasped, "He did?"

"Wait what? Lucy cleaned?" Nuying chuckled.

Coughing vigorously, Lucas requested Flora, "Babe, can I get a glass of water?"

"Alright, do you want lukewarm water?"

"Do you have to boil the water on your own?" When she nodded her head, he said, "Lukewarm water will really help a lot."

Rubbing the side of his arm, she sighed, "I told you not to drink that ice water yesterday, you never listen to me—"

Dramatically shaking his head, Yichan placed his hand on his chest, "Yes Lucy, why don't you listen to Flora?"

"You guys, stop teasing him. I'll be right back."

After Flora left, Lucas frowned, "Guys what the hell is wrong with you? Are you all trying to insult me in front of my girlfriend?"

"So you really are dating my sister," Guiren snapped.

Gulping in nervousness, he explained,, "First, this is the first time I am hearing that she is your sister and how do you expect me to know when she doesn't have a Zhang in her name? And according to what I know, you are the only child so—"

"Flora is my cousin but she is no less than my own sister which means that you are dating my sister." Narrowing his eyes, Guiren added, "You are so dead if you are just casually fooling around with—"

Cutting him off, Lucas nervously scoffed, "Hey yoho, stop right there mister. Now who told you that I am fooling around with Flora. Okay maybe that was what I thought when I met her at the club but now things are different."

"I agree with Lucas on that." When Guiren gave her a weird look, Ning explained, "Come on, Lucas cleaned and is all ready to live hygienically for her. Now those who know Lucas will realize how huge this is."

"Yeah Ning is right," Nuying added.

"I agree with that too and Lucas is our friend, isn't it supposed to be great that he is dating Flora?" Meili inquired.

Thinking for a while, Guiren stated, "I can't interfere with my sister dating life but that doesn't mean I will not keep a close eye on you."

"I think I should go and find Flora because Mr. Possessive brother slits my throat." Without waiting for anyone's reply, Lucas chickened out.

Looking around, Ning frowned, "Yi, where is Yitian?"

"Yitian is here too? Where is he?" Meili inquired.

"He saw a friend so maybe he is chatting with her," Yichan informed.

….

In a distance.

"You look great," Yitian complimented.

Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, Liying smiled, "Thanks, I didn't know you were coming here too."

"I didn't know either, brother Yichan and sister Ning wanted me to tag along so I did," he answered.

"I thought you were helping Rachel with something after college today."

Awkwardly scratching his forehead, he sighed, "Listen, I had no intention of helping her or anyone. In fact, I had already made plans of coming home early and taking an early nap. I won't lie to you, Rachel did ask me to help her out in something but I wasn't going to. I just thought that you should know so—"

Cutting him off, she said, "It's alright and sorry for hanging up on you yesterday."

"It's okay, you can hang up on me whenever you like."

Watching them from a distance, Wang Juan scoffed, "So that is the new member of the Mo family."

"Yes, his name is Mo Yitian and he is Yichan's half brother." Without waiting for her reply, Ziying stated, "Dad brought you here because you said you wanted to socialize with everyone. Please don't go around creating trouble for us."

"Don't teach me what to do, I know why I am here," Juan snapped.

"Come on girls, let's go and congratulate Mr and Mrs Zhang. Where is Liying?" Father Wang inquired.

"Your youngest daughter is busy flirting with the new Mo family member," Juan mocking remarked.

Scrunching her brows, Ziying retorted, "They are college mates and they are just talking."

Glaring at his eldest daughter who would always remain the same, father Wang sighed and made his way towards Liying and Yitian.

"And I can take you to that really cool place where—"

"What are you kids talking about?" Father Wang inquired before placing his hand on Liying's shoulder.

"Dad, he is Yitian—remember the friend I was talking about?"

"Ah yes, Mo Yitian right?" father Wang asked.

Nodding his head, Yitian politely answered, "Yes sir."

"He is still new here so I was thinking of taking him around and helping him explore the city," Liying stated.

Smiling at them, father Wang nodded his head in agreement, "That is great, you should show him around. Now why don't we first go and congratulate the hosts of the party, you kids can continue planning after that."

…..

"Relax honey, he is definitely around some—ahh look, there he is," Yichan sighed when he saw Yitian coming towards them along with Liying and others.

"Woah isn't that Wang Juan? If I am not wrong, she is your ex-fiancee right?" Roger inquired.

Yichan scrunched his brows while Ning vigorously nodded her head, "You are one hundred percent correct Roger." Looking at Yichan, she smiled, "Right honey?"
