To mare: Flora does that to a lot of her male co-stars. For example, Gallen, Moses, Bowie, Nick, Jacky Lui, etc. :D For me, I love Moses and Flora as a couple. Flora would have to be my favourite of all time Moses pair up. :D

To Noah: I would guess that person would be Ron. Ha ha...
I didnt know some of them...but the most surprise one is "Ron Ng and Tavia Yeung would hold hands when shopping together." They didnt had any rumors.
