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

Her eyes smiled when she got access. She rushed into that soft place and kissed him like she was trying to desperately eat something. Both of them didn't make a sound and kissed each other back as they closed their eyes.

In the big living room, a couple was kissing each other crazily. They seemed to have forgone everything in the world.

"Mmm… Ha… wait!" Ji Yanli broke away to take a deep breath. Wang Haixiao's eyes a crazy glint as he turned around and dropped her under him.

"There is no time… let's continue." After saying, Wang Haixiao went down and seized her lips. Both of their complexions turned red as they made a lot of noise this time.

Amidst the mad kissing of them, the door of An Ching's room opened half. The man didn't dare to turn towards that area. He tiptoed towards the kitchen and picked something edible. Then he returned back and tightly closed his room's door, locking it so tightly so that no sound could rush in.

Ji Yanli's clothes were creased and deformed until her innerwear was seen. 

Wang Haixiao's roaming fingers stopped in their tracks as he realised something was wrong. His brain was slow to process it but by the time he understood, she had returned her gaze to the screen.

"Tch, boring movie… let's go to the room and continue~" Ji Yanli saw the closed door of An Ching's room, "What if he comes out again? I don't want to broadcast a live erotic scene for others to see!"

He bit his lips and tasted the sweetness of grapes. His brain sobered up instantly. Both of them sat up in the next second. 

Ji Yanli blinked her eyes. She was feeling that something was wrong and the atmosphere didn't seem to be quite good. Only then she remembered.

"Ah, I nearly forgot it!" Then, before Wang Haixiao's horrifying eyes, she bent down and took out two bottles of wine. 

One was finished while the third one was brand new. Watching this, his eyes deemed, "So, you are drunk, huh? Here I thought why would you do it abruptly… without any reason?"

Ji Yanli paused when his dejected voice floated to her ears. She turned around and directly closed the laptop. Then, she opened the cap of the wine and handed it to him.

"For you." The man stared at the bottle for a while. Watching this, Ji Yanli didn't wait anymore and lifted his head. She made him gulp down some sips. 

"Cough! Cough! Yanli, what's wrong with you?" Even though Wang Haixiao recovered from his tipsiness earlier, these few mouthfuls of wine made him drunk… a little bit.

"Now, it's perfect. You are drunk, I'm drunk… the atmosphere is perfect to happen something that we can't control. Don't you think?" 

The man wasn't a fool not to know what she meant. The next moment, Ji Yanli stood up and led him to his room. After entering, she locked it from inside. 

"Let's sleep!" Ji Yanli dragged him to the bed and intended to go to bed but he denied.

"No, I need to change and… shower." 

Only then Ji Yanli remembered that the man had yet to change his clothes. After she had sat down in the bed, in dejection she saw the man entering the washroom.

"Ah~ Yawn~" She rubbed her sleepy eyes and turned towards the clock. "It's already past one! Oh no! My beauty sleep!" 

Ji Yanli cupped her cheeks and murmured. Then, as if the matter with Wang Haixiao didn't exist, she opened the blanket and wrapped herself in it. "Time to sleep. Good night~"

So by the time Wang Haixiao was finished, he was greeted with a sleeping figure. Ji Yanli had taken the place in the middle, not sparing any proper place for a second person to squeeze in.

He walked beside her and nudged her with his hand, "Yanli, move to the side." No matter how much he had called out, she didn't give any response. "Didn't you want me to sleep with you?" He bent down and whispered.

Ji Yanli slowly opened her heavy eyes and whispered, "Okay." She moved to one side and left the other area for him.

Then she closed her eyes and in the next moment, her clear and even breathing was heard.

"Hah." After staring at her for a long time, Wang Haixiao turned around to leave the room when her voice rang out from behind, "Come back hurriedly, I am waiting for you…"

In the end, her voice trailed off. The man didn't turn back and left.

After getting a cold shower earlier, he was totally in his right mind. He wanted to get out to clear his mind but he was greeted with a bone-chilling air and darkness.

"Ah, really! Is she scheming to kill someone to death by freezing?!" Wang Haixiao muttered aloud, clear enough for Ji Yanli to hear.

When he turned around, he saw the woman's response by covering her head and turning her back on him.

'Does she want to make my apartment a freezer?!' Wang Haixiao thought in annoyance as he went out and turned on one light in the living room. Then he turned off the AC but his eyes froze when he saw An Ching.

"Why are you still awake?" Wang Haixiao asked and went towards the glass table. 

An Ching was sitting on a stool and was in deep thought. When he saw the other man, he sighed.

"Brother, who is she?" 

Wang Haixiao sat opposite and replied, "Friend."

Hearing it, An Ching showed blatant suspicion. Wang Haixiao didn't say more and the atmosphere turned awkward.

An Ching coughed slightly and whispered, "Today, it is your turn to cook dinner." Noticing the man had paused, An Ching mumbled, "I have already eaten outside. What about you?"

"Me too."

"Good then." 

Wang Haixiao noticed the paper's on the table. He took one and continued to read. It was simply a list of various hospitals and coincidentally there was the one where Luo Lixi was admitted before.
