Su Wan did the same with the other flower petals as well but just for a precautionary measure , she also distilled the water and used it to make another batch of the essential oils . Su Wan really wished that her hard work doesn't go down the drain , because this was her first time making the essential oils , she wasn't as confident as she usually was when it came to cooking , once or twice she made a mistake in distilling the water and it was only on her third time she succeeded . After she was done extracting the essential oils , Su Wan arched her back and stifled a yawn , she was used to taking a nap after working but her napping hours had been taken away because she had to once again walk the road of rich from poor .

  Once she was done pouring the last batch of the extraction in a bowl and placed it in the vat , Su Wan realised that she wasn't alone anymore , the reflection of the moon that was shining overhead was glittering in the water , and next to her was an overstretched black shadow that was looming over her .

  Su Wan didn't even have to turn around to see who it was because among the five brothers only Lin Yu smelled like fresh air . It wasn't surprising that Lin Yu came to see her , but Su Wan who was angry at Lin Yu didn't want to see him at the moment .

  She wanted to calm down first and then talk it out with him , but as she turned around and caught sight of those red eyes that were rimmed with tears , Su Wan couldn't help but stop in her tracks , her mind told her not to believe Lin Yu but her her heart couldn't help but ache at the sight of those pearly tears , in end she cleared her throat uncomfortably and crossed her hands in front of her " what ? Why are you here ? What do you want to say , just say it I'm really busy "

  Su Wan wanted her voice to come out a bit reproving and harsh and it definitely sounded harsh than her usual soft approach towards Lin Yu but the second Lin Yu 's body trembled and he started fidgeting with his fingers , Su Wan couldn't help but feel that maybe she was a bit too hard on him but then she remembered that Lin Yu did to her and she hardened her heart , Lin Yu was still young she needed to set him right or else he will start walking down the wrong path ( that ship has already sailed Wan Wan )

  Lin Yu pursed his lips and then raised his tearful eyes at Su Wan , then with a heart wrenching sob , he cried out " Wan W…wan , I'm sorry ! I re……really didn't wa……want to do that b……but You won't le……let me t……touch you , why - why ca……can my brothers t……touch you and I ca……can't ? I'm you……your husband too ! Do you d……detest me for be……being a li……limp ? I kn……know I shoul……shouldn't have touch……touched you wi……without yo……your cons……consent and hid it f……from you but you wou……would sure……surely dislike me even more !"

  Lin Yu was crying so bad that he was stuttering worse than ever , and Su Wan who was angry just a minute ago couldn't help but feel a bit flustered , this she never thought that just because she stopped Lin Yu from touching her , Lin Yu actually came to the conclusion that she actually detested her . Originally she wanted to be hard hearted but when she saw Lin Yu crying so badly , she couldn't help be stunned at his sudden tears .

  Though she still had some doubts lingering in her mind but when she saw Lin Yu cry until he was choking , Su Wan hurriedly went ahead to coax him "Alright stop crying , don't act like this when have I ever said that I detest you , if I really detested you then wouldn't I already tell you that ? Do you think I will not tell you something like that ? Huh , you stupid boy "

  " but y……you re……refused me " argued Lin Yu , tears still in his eyes as he bit his lower lip and glared at Su Wan seeing his glare Su Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry , this boy he was the one who took advantage of her , she should be the one who should be crying and glaring resentfully at him while he coaxed her , why was it that he was the one glaring at her while she was coaxing him .

  " that's because you are much to young -"

  " You ……you are yo……young too Wan Wan " retorted Lin Yu still fiddling with his fingers " if y……you can hu……hug and ki……ss and do things with b……brothers why c……can't I ? Wh……why shoul…should I be the one l……left behind ?"

  Su Wan felt her head throb and she poked Lin Yu 's forehead " you silly boy , what are you thinking ? Who is leaving you behind , what goes inside your head every day ? How come you are thinking about such things ?"

  " but its the t……truth , every……everyone's vy……vying for Wan Wan 's attention , I can't even t……talk to you , so won't I b……be left be……behind?"

  Vying for attention when did this happen ? " no ones vying for my attention " Su Wan told Lin Yu who shook his head and then? listlessly looked around , then with his head lowered he whispered " ever……everyone is vy……vying for Wan Wan 's att……attention , only Wan Wan is too in……innocent and na……naive that you can't see "

  Innocent and naive ? This was the first time , Su Wan had been described as such , never before had anyone call her na?ve in fact Su Wan herself couldn't call herself as na?ve and to think that a young boy of mere sixteen would be the one calling her that , this - what kind of situation was this ?

  In the end Su Wan didn't try to ponder on the topic about how the ' Lin brothers ' think she didn't know them well enough to actually understand every single bit of their actions , instead she looked at Lin Yu and sighed " alright , I'm sorry about rejecting you alright ? I won't do it again but because you did something wrong you will be punished , okay ?"

  " as long a……as Wan Wan for……forgives me " Lin Yu nodded at once like a pitiful child who was being punished for something really small by the teacher .

  Su Wan's lips twitched but in the end she couldn't punish Lin Yu harshly , she only thought about it for a second then looked at Lin Yu " alright , your punishment will be that until you can talk more fluently , you cannot touch me okay ?"

  Lin Yu looked a bit hesitant but in the end he accepted the punishment as if he knew that this was something he had to do , in the end Su Wan 's anger was? reduced by half and she gave Lin Yu her first genuine smile of the evening before leaving .

  Since her back was turned , she didn't see Lin Yu 's flickering gaze and that confident smirk as he stood up straight and the tears in his eyes vanished " Wan Wan , ah you are reall……really naive "

  If Su Wan was here she would have been shocked to hear Lin Yu 's sentence which barely had any stutter in it , ever since Lin Yu decided that he would become a worthy match for Su Wan , he had been working hard on his stutter , now his stuttering was more or less reduced by half , it was just that Lin Yu wasn't someone who liked to show all his cards at once .
