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

When she sensed the atmosphere was so tense, though she could already guess the reason for it but she didn't bother, it shouldn't be any of her business. 

With light steps, Yan Ruomin stopped just before Su Mengsi. 

Watching her daughter stand before her, Su Mengsi stood up and hugged her tightly. Then, she whispered, "Go and return only when I say. Okay?"

"Hmm." With a smile like those of highly educated ladies, Yan Ruomin nodded. 

Yan Ruomin's mood was bad, extremely bad and such types of orders had her mood ruined, what could she do if not follow it? She always tried to listen to her mother if she wanted to lead a good and carefree life. 

After that, Yan Ruomin turned towards Father Yan and said with a sweet smile. To make such a face, Yan Ruomin herself found it an annoyance. "Father, I am leaving. Please take care of your health."

Father Yan could only just nod. The old man didn't even care about his own child, let alone Yan Ruomin, who wasn't related to him by blood at all. 

Yan Luhan frowned and inquired, "Where are you going so late?"

Yan Ruomin put on her black sunglasses back and replied back, "To my uni. I have yet to finish my study, you forgot?"

Right then, Yan Luhan finally got the confirmation of his guess that his mother, yet again had given money to Yan Ruomin for her to waste like every time. 

"Ma, I am leaving." Yan Ruomin said again and turned around.

Su Mengsi went out with her as well, following Yan Ruomin by her side. Outside, in front of the vast compound, they both stood still, patiently waiting until a car approached them. 

A weird noise came from behind and when Su Mengsi turned around, she was startled to see Yan Luhan, eyeing the two women coldly.

"Why are you here? You have just come. Go to your room and freshen up. I will tell the maid to make light soup for you." Su Mengsi said. 

Even though she didn't like this son of hers, at the end of the day, he was still her blood. She couldn't unsee the tired and haggard face of the young man.

Yan Luhan didn't answer. His eyes totally ignored the concern Su Mengsi showed for a brief second. 

Then, Mu Jiang drove a car in front of them and waved at Yan Luhan. 

"Brother, sis, aunty, here I am!" In that situation, only a man like My Jiang appeared unaffected. 

"I have better work to look after. You two stay here. Also, Ma, don't stand outside for so long." Then, Yan Luhan turned at his sister and scoffed before turning around. In swift moves, he entered the car. 

"Hey, go later. Luhan!" Su Mengsi words fell on deaf ears. To talk with Yan Luhan about the money and how to solve it, it was her intention. with him. But Mu Jiang drove away in a hurry.

It was just silence. Yan Ruomin turned towards Su Mengsi and saw her face which was twisting nonstop. She said, trying to sound normal, "Ma, there is really no need for you to accompany me till the airport. Also, it's very late. The up-down will take a lot of time too."

Su Mengsi looked at her daughter's face which showed the other person was very irritated. Her heart was hurt a bit. 

"Fine, I won't go." Su Mengsi smiled coldly. Watching this, Yan Ruomin's heart stopped for a moment. It felt like a dangerous situation which passed in a moment.

Afterwards, the woman's eyes fell on the driver as she commanded sternly, "Be careful when you drive.Mu Minmin is very precious!"

"Of course, madam. Don't worry." The driver nodded and felt her words were somewhat cringy. 

The car left in a moment. Su Mengsi glanced at the empty compound. 

The big Yan Villa turned silent again. When she turned around, she looked for Father Yan, who seemed to be missing and the thought of him going back to his room crossed her mind. 

She clenched her hands and no longer felt the need to stay in the same room with the man today. 

Yan Ruomin wouldn't return for at least 6 months and Yan Luhan didn't need her so she didn't feel like staying.

Thus she motioned to one of the maids, "Bring my bag and purse. I am going to Sheng's home."

Thus, Father Yan was the only one left behind while all the three members of the family left one after another. Who would say it is a family?

…

When Wei Airan knew that Su Mengsi was coming to stay for a few days, she told Aunt Lin to prepare a guest room for her. 

After some time, Su Mengsi finally came, walking in an imposing manner only she would use now a days. 

After entering the villa, both of them sat down. Wei Airan asked curiously, "What? Quarrelled with your husband?" Afterall, it was currently past midnight. 

Su Mengsi narrowed her eyes and shook her head. "Children won't be home for some time. So I thought it's a perfect time to relax."

Wei Airan nodded her head a few times in understanding. "Ah Hao and Xiao Ming aren't home either. Shall we go to a sauna tomorrow?"

Thus, both of them made a plan to go out the next day. But when the time came, Su Mengsi's face fell when she saw the additional two women tagging along, 'Sigh! I forgot to mention not to tell them….'

…

Around night, the airport wasn't usually very busy. When Yan Ruomin entered, only a handful of people were present there. The whole big place seemed nearly empty.

"Ah, my sleep is ruined for good!" She rubbed the back of her stiff neck, cracking it left and right trying to ease the discomfort and walked ahead while dragging her things in annoyance.

This time, she would go abroad and thus, the procedures naturally would take more time to complete. When she entered the waiting area, her eyes immediately caught a familiar figure.

Yan Ruomin gritted her teeth while her eyes were filled with viciousness. Her hand clenched tightly as she stared at the smiling face of the opponent, "That bitch Luo Lixi?! Is it her?!"

"If she's here, does it mean…" Yan Ruomin's eyes lit up the next moment and she began to search for Sheng Ruming.

It's been very long since she had seen Sheng Ruming and she couldn't help but enthusiastically search for the figure. "Can I see him for the last time before I leave?"

But unfortunately, the man didn't come back with Luo Lixi and her eyes were bound to get disappointed by watching her enemy's figure.

Yan Ruomin scoffed as she leaned against her seat and saw Luo Lixi talking with an unknown girl. 

"Lucky bitch!" Yan Ruomin really envied Luo Lixi. In her eyes, Luo Lixi had the life she desired the most. 

What can we say? People envy the things which they could never have. Some learn to adjust and understand their ground, some reflect reality. While some try to dwell around it and ruin themselves.

…

Luo Biwun had lost his wallet in the plane. It wouldn't be something major only if he didn't have his important cards in it.

Luo Lixi decided to wait until he came back. Thus, she stood with Pan Er Jiu and naturally they talked about things Pan Er Jiu had bought for her mother.

Also, when they got on the plane, they discovered that she was the one who had the most things out of them that she couldn't even carry normally! Yet again?!

"... I also bought some gifts for my neighbours. If I don't, then my mother will start to give away the things I have bought for her, sigh!" 

Pan Er Jiu stood with a cart filled with things. It amused Luo Lixi a lot. People could even mistake that Pan Er Jiu had come back from her vacation.

But if someone else was in her place, they would surely feel ashamed, so did Pan Er Jiu. Looking at her, Yan Ruomin sneered. Pan Er Jiu standing beside Luo Lixi like that, appeared the same as a servant beside her master.

Luo Lixi nodded as the sign that she understood Pan Er Jiu's meaning. Suddenly, she blinked her eyes. A weird feeling was making its way to her brain, it had her alert and thinking, 'Is someone looking at me?'

The vibe she got wasn't very pleasant. When she glanced around, however, she didn't detect any familiar or suspicious person because Yan Ruomin had her head lowered and was reading a magazine.

Suddenly, Luo Lixi began to feel itchy in her nose. Even when she rubbed it, the feeling didn't go away. 

"Accho~ acchi~... Ah! Acchi~..." She covered her nose and sneezed for a few consecutive times. 

"Are you okay, miss Luo?!" Pan Er Jiu asked worriedly but then she saw her eyes turning misty and her nose turning reddish.
