Xiehan was even more annoyed when the latter didn't seem to have any urgent reason to seek him so incessantly. "Whatever it is can wait." He dismissed and held Lanni by the waist. 

Jiang Xingyu saw the situation and since he still loved his life, he decided to leave first. "I'll give you a call tomorrow. Just don't ignore me, okay?" Xiehan ignored him, then he remembered something else. "Right, about your sister-in-law…" 

"She is your responsibility now." Xiehan responded sternly, reminding him that since he had decided to be with a woman, he should take full responsibility for her. 

"What happened to my sister?" Lanni asked worriedly. 

"Uh…" Jiang Xingyu stuttered. He had forgotten all about Lanni's presence and blurted out matters that were probably better off not reaching her ears. But now that he had he had already mentioned it and since Xiehan was glaring at him furiously, he could only continue the statement he had started. 

"I accidentally found out that she has been in constant communication with that Flynn guy. They are even meeting up this evening." He scratched his chin in thought. "You asked me to report to you if I found out any of his weird moves, didn't you?" 

Xiehan frowned slightly while Lanni wondered, why the hell would that man start looking for her sister soon after he looked for her? 

"If I find out that he is making any weird moves towards my sister, I will skin him alive." She gritted her teeth threateningly. 

"He is more likely to skin you." He mocked, then continued speaking to Xiehan. "Do you think I should follow them to find out what they are going to talk about?" 

Xiehan frowned. "Do you really need me to tell you what to do? Are you a kindergarten kid?" Even so, he added, "If you think Luna might be in danger, you should be close by just in case." 

"Got it!" Jiang Xingyu hopped towards his car, cheering like he had received a huge award.

"Uh… why does it seem like he was looking for an excuse to spy on Luna?" Lanni laughed. 

"Just ignore him." Xiehan held her by her waist and pulled her into the house.

That evening. 

Luna met Flynn at a small restaurant near Goldewing Apartments. When she arrived, the latter had ordered several dishes, none of which she was interested in. 

"Come on, try out this chicken and mushroom pasta. The last time I was here, I ate it and it was the tastiest pasta I had ever eaten." He offered some of the food for her to have a taste. 

She shook her head without an ounce of interest. "I will just have a glass of water, thanks." 

"Are you so disinterested in eating? What about this wine? I heard…" 

"Flynn, just go straight to the point. Stop beating around the bush." Luna interrupted his meaningless chatter. Aside from generally not being interested in his nonsense, it would also not be a good thing if she spent too much time with another man. She was interested in Jiang Xingyu after all, and the latter didn't know that yet. What if he assumed that she was into some other man? They were not in any specified relationship, after all. 

Seeing her lack of interest, Flynn shook his head. "I say you have changed so much. I'm not talking about how you stopped wearing male clothes; that was a disguise and you are not a man after all, so this is how you should dress up." 

"What's your point exactly?" Luna was getting impatient. 

"You have this new shade to you… it's as though a lot has changed around you lately. Are you in love?" 

"That's none of your business. Why did you call me here anyway?" She tried to keep her temper in check before she could be tempted to beat this idiot up. 

The man finally got more serious. "Listen, I brought this. It should be helpful to you." He held out a lipstick to her. 

Luna took the lipstick then uncapped it curiously. When she had a good look, she asked with a frown, "What is this?" 

"Something you were looking for." He answered. 

When she understood him, she smiled. "I can't believe I'm saying this to you again, but thank you." 

He laughed and peeked in a certain direction then looked back at Luna. "I would have asked you to thank me by coming over to Galaxis since you are intelligent and all, but there really is a deep 'twin effect' between you and your sister." 

"What nonsense are you even saying?" Luna asked, keeping the lipstick in her purse. 

"Your sister rejected her chance because she fell in love." Flynn felt defeated before adding, "With a man who doesn't even deserve her." 

Luna cringed. "First of all, there is no one more deserving of my sister than Xiehan, who loves her more than she loves herself. Secondly, it is up to my sister to decide which man is good for her." 

He surrendered, faced with her stern face. "Hey, I was just giving my opinion, okay? Don't kill me. Anyway, my point is, I thought you would be of help but you cannot be… for the same reason as her. You are in love, aren't you?" 

Luna frowned. What did her being or not being in love have to do with anything? 

He shrugged when he looked at her questioningly. "I have to say, you have same tastes." He looked in a certain direction. 

She followed his gaze to see Jiang Xingyu sitting not too far away from them. She sent him a questioning look and he pretended not to have seen her. 



Jiang Xingyu had not thought of disguising himself in order to follow Luna, neither had he thought of sending someone else. He was not trying to spy on her, after all. All he wanted was to be there in case Flynn was up to any mischief and Luna needed help.
