After having too much homework to do, Han Luo only found some free time on Saturday. That day, Han Luo came to the Mo Mansion early and went to look for Benjamin, as she knew he was going to have a break soon.
She knocked on his door. He just took a bath and was resting in his room. When he opened the door, his eyes widened. He quickly looked in the corridor to see if anyone was there and then asked in a low tone, "Hello Miss Han, to what do I owe the pleasure?"
Han Luo's eyes gazed at the meal and flushed. Benjamin was wearing a white shirt and it was unbuttoned. She could see his abs. Her stomach was already full.
She controlled herself and said, "Ben, I have something to talk to you. May I come into you room?" She had a pitiful expression on her face – no one would have the heart to shoo her away after seeing that face.
'She is blackmailing me. She knows how to use her weapon. What a sharp kid!' Benjamin praised her in his mind. 'But won't Young Master get mad if she is here? What if he kills me after knowing that his beloved is here, and that we are alone in my bedroom?'
He didn't want to take any risks and questioned "Miss Han, does anyone know that you are here?"
"Yes, big brother Yuan knows. Truthfully, he is the one who sent me to you."
"Did he now?" Benjamin wasn't worried anymore. He let her enter his room. "Please come in."
"Thank you." Han Luo trotted inside the room.
Benjamin closed the door and quickly buttoned his shirt. He saw her gaze earlier and was nervous. He knew that adolescents had fantasies but if his Young Master were to find out that the girl he is trying to woo was checking out his servant's abs, he would slice Benjamin.
"Please sit down." Benjamin pulled out a chair.
"Thank you." Han Luo sat down.
Benjamin sat on the bed and asked, "So, what do you need?"
Han Luo explained, "I'm going to participate a dancing competition in November and big brother Yuan said that you can help me."
"Dance? Me?" Benjamin was stunned and chuckled. "Young Master certainly has some confidence in me. I'm honored. Although I'm a man with many talents, I can only dance salsa." He checked out her top to bottom and continued, "Did you perhaps dance ballet since a young age?"
Han Luo was surprised. "Yeah, that's true. How did you guess?"
Benjamin was a wise and observant person. "Your body is well-built for ballet dancing, but I'm sorry to say that I can't dance ballet." Seeing her puppy expression, he added, "But I can help you with choreography – what do you say?"
"You will?!" Han Luo jumped out of the chair and took his hands. She shook them excitedly and proclaimed, "I look forward to working with you!"
Benjamin was taken aback by her sudden excitement. He never saw her acting like that before. He saw her in front of Mo Yuan, where she was so mild and cute. 'She is really happy. I guess this means the competition is very important to her.'
"Thank you so much Ben! I'll tell big brother Yuan the good news. Let's get along together!" Han Luo smiled brightly – almost blinding Benjamin – and left the room.
Benjamin sat on his bed alone and was still shocked. 'Did I just discover her secret side?' He started to think if he should tell his Young Master or keep it a secret. 'She doesn't look like a bad girl, though. She gets along with everyone and likes animal…' Remembering her playing with her pet rabbits, he decided not to tell Mo Yuan.
He subconsciously uttered, "There is nothing wrong with her. She is just a little mischievous. I think Young Master will like her even if she has that personality."
"Who? What personality?" someone asked from the doorway.
Benjamin instinctively jumped onto his two feet and looked at the uninvited guest. "It's nothing, ma'am… just talking to myself." Benjamin cursed himself for talking loudly.
Martha narrowed her eyes. "I saw Miss Han coming out of the servants' resting area. Did you perhaps meet her?"
"Oh, she came to me for some help. Young Master permitted her to do so," Benjamin replied. "Ma'am, I think I need to take some time off in the evening from now on till November. Of course, I'll finish all my work at daytime. No one has to take my job."
Martha asked, "Why is that?"
Benjamin declared, "I have some personal business outside."
Martha gave him a stern look. "Can't you tell me what it is?"
Benjamin was still polite when he replied, "Sorry, ma'am. It's personal." He didn't want to get on her bad side.
Martha realized that he wouldn't tell her, so she didn't ask further. She nodded and replied, "Fine, I will let the Madam know."
"Thank you, ma'am." Benjamin really appreciated her generosity; it was usually quite hard to get a holiday from her.
Martha then took her leave to go upstairs, where she found Rose serving the dishes. She then went to Mo Yuan's study room, where he heard her knock on his door. The boy told her to come inside.
Martha entered the room and stood in front of his desk. Mo Yuan raised his head to see her and asked, "What is it?"
Martha announced, "Lunch is ready, Young Master."
Mo Yuan was doing his homework. "Okay, call mom and Ah Luo too."
"They were already informed," Martha retorted. She then cleared her throat. "Young Master, I have something to talk to you about." Her voice was still stern, but she softened her tone a bit.
Mo Yuan, while not looking at her, questioned, "What is it?"
Martha politely and patiently said, "I know you do not like it when I speak about Miss Han, but there is something I must inform you of."
Mo Yuan stopped writing and gazed at her silently.. He was interested to know what she wanted to say about Han Luo.
