Ten Years of Yearning. My Love, Let Me Protect You.

Sheng Ruming gulped the remaining part at one go. Then, at lighting speed, he put the cup on the table. Afterwards, he grabbed her face and caused his lips on hers.

"Mmm… Uhm!!!" As the slightly hot and suicidal sweetness filled her mouth, Luo Lixi's mind blanked out. The sweetness made her tongue numb.

Sheng Ruming didn't let her go until she gulped down the last drop of tea. "Done. A sweet kiss." Sheng Ruming rubbed his lips which were wet from the tea.

The neausiating smell of milk made Luo Lixi dizzy. Sheng Ruming locked her lips and spread the smell more. At the same time, he continued to hug her tightly, not giving her the change to escape from his grasp.

"Cough! Cough! You…"

Right at the moment, when Sheng Ruming was busy pecking her on the lips, the door opened. Aunt Zhu froze at once when she saw the inside.

"Grandma Zhu…" Luo Lixi panicked and wanted to stand up but Sheng Ruming forced her seat. "Be good. Don't move too much."

Aunt Zhu's whole body trembled. 'Dear God, I just came to deliver the refreshments. What are you showing me now at this old age?!'

Luo Lixi saw Aunt Zhu trembling violently while the old woman was opening and closing her lips continuously, as if she wanted to say something.

Sheng Ruming saw everything. 'This situation is very amusing. Why is she having such a big reaction?' 

"Gra... grandma Zhu, be careful!" At her reminder, the old woman gulped down hard. She went inside hurriedly and put the tray, which was filled with many foods. Then, without saying more, she walked out in large steps.

"You two can continue." The old woman said and slowly closed the wooden door.

Luo Lixi stared at the door in blank expression.

"The elderly have told us to continue. We shan't disappoint her." Sheng Ruming took a berry between his thumb and forefinger. Then he crushed it and spread the blue substance on her lips. 

Next, he went ahead and stole more kisses. Without holding back, the man became more daring. 'Never have I thought I would come to this place, let alone kissing her when her grandfather is nearby…"

The man opened his eyes and stared at the lady whose eyes were close, enjoying his gentle kisses.

"Your eyes are so red and swollen. It looks like you were bullied by someone." Luo Lixi raised her hand and gently rubbed her eyes.

"Don't! It will only increase the itchiness." Sheng Ruming blew hot air on her eyes and Luo Lixi enjoyed the humid air greatly.

Suddenly, Sheng Ruming scooped a spoonful of white cream from a pastry. Then he pasted  it on her lips. 

"Should I continue? Or your grandfather will come at any time?" Luo Lixi shook her head.

Then she let him kiss her life before. Soft, gentle and sweet kisses, the type she liked the most.

A random day of the month. Deep in the night.

A black minibus drove near to an open field. The door opened and then two men were pushed out from the minibus.

"Let's go!" At the shout, the bus driver drove ahead, without any hurry. 

"Ahaha!!! I am free. I am finally free! Aaaah!!!" The skinny man shouted like a mad man. The other one silently stared at the vehicle which was becoming tiny as it drove towards an unknown path.

The former Chief Manager Tan silently glanced around. At the other person's craziness, he was unbothered.

Both of them only had their underwear on while they were stark naked. The man who was still holding his sanity, started to walk towards a particular direction, leaving behind the other man who was shouting nonstop. 

After wandering for several hours, he saw a car driving on the road. 'Finally!' He thought and went to stop the car.

"Oh my God! What is this pervert doing before my car?" The man who was driving, popped out his head and shouted, "Do you want to die? If then, go and find another car!" 

The driver was both scared and shocked. But looking at the man in underwear, he thought he might be a crazy person, wandering on the roads at night to do dirty things.

"Please!... give me your phone. I was kidnapped. I just want to make a call." The driver glanced at him suspiciously.

"Really?"

"Really! I am not a thief. I will just make a call." The driver thought and stared at him. Next, he gave him the phone.

Finally after some hours, a small news was published in a local newspaper. Writing about a man who was found after being kidnapped for several days. The shocking thing was there wasn't any missing report of him in the police station.

At dawn, a white car entered the Luo Mansion.  He loosened his blue tie and walked out. Afterwards, in large steps Luo Lixiang entered the mansion.

As usual, he slowly walked towards his room first. Luo Lixiang went to change his clothes but he found his wardrobe was empty.

"What the…?! What happened?" Luo Lixiang murmured and opened all his closet. But what greeted him was the empty closet.

"Grandma Zhu…" He walked out from the room. But there weren't any people near. "Where are others?"

Luo Lixiang murmured as he finally walked towards Luo Qintian's room. He's brows knitted when he saw unknown people.

"Who are you people? What are you doing here?" Luo Lixiang asked as he came towards them. One of the men answered, "We are people of Chief Zhao."

"Zhao? You mean Zhao Yichen?" As the man asked, they nodded. "What are you doing here then again? Wasn't he dismissed a long time ago? Guarding the room, for what?!"

Luo Lixiang sneered as he entered the room. He first glanced at the bed but Luo Qintian wasn't there. When his eyes moved around, he didn't find him either.

Thus he walked out and glanced at the two men, "He isn't inside."

"We know. We are doing what we were told to." The other man who was silent earlier, decided to open his lips.
