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

Even though she was a bit disappointed, Luo Lixi cheered herself up and turned to the sketch she had made after many attempts. While she was admiring the thing, her phone which was silent for a long time made a loud noise. 

Ding~ Ding~ Ding~

Luo Lixi was startled by the noise and turned to the purse which was disregarded at one corner of the little table placed beside her. The table had all the colours and brushes and pencils she needed. 

Luo Lixi avoided the things and took her purse. Afterwards, she stood up and stretched her body to get rid of the stiffness. 

'Was it him?' She thought and took out her phone with a smile. But after several minutes, when she was done reading the email, Luo Lixi could no longer contain her smile.

Luo Lixi got up from the stool and walked out of the room. After looking around she didn't find Sheng Ruming. When she walked for a moment, finally she found someone. 

"Lili, where is Ruming?" Luo Lixi asked Yang Meili who just came out from the lift. 

"Umm… madam, I don't know. I just came from outside. Should I call him for you?" Yang Meili asked. 

Luo Lixi stared at the distance for a few seconds and afterwards, whispered, "No need." 

Then she turned around to go back. This time, Yang Meili followed her closely.

When Luo Lixi stopped, Yang Meili stopped. When she walked, the other person walked. In the end, Luo Lixi felt weird and turned around as she asked, "Why are you following me?"

"Madam, CEO Sheng has told us, from now on, I am your secretary and Pan Er Jiu is your assistant. We have been assigned to help you in your dream, to be the most famous painter of this country." Yang Meili put on a professional stance and replied. 

Luo Lixi nodded absentmindedly, "Hmm."

Yang Meili expected a more hearty reply from her. But when she answered with one word, suddenly the conversation died down. Both of them became silent and it was awkward. 

To break the stifling atmosphere, Yang Meili asked while standing straight, "Madam, this studio has yet to get any name. CEO Sheng Ruming has told us it will be named after your choice. Do you have a good name in mind?"

"Hum… good name?" Luo Lixi thought for a moment and remembered this black box building didn't have a name yet. Then without thinking, she lifted her head with a smile and answered, "Let's name it… [DreamArt]."

"DreamArt?... Good choice." Yang Meili murmured as she mouthed the name. She found the name pleasant sounding and thus smiled as she nodded. 

…

"Baby, I am sorry!" A man in police clothing went up to a woman and hugged her tightly as he whispered. 

"Humph! Every time we have a date, you are either late or can't come. I am so fed up!" The senior officer's girlfriend was mad as she said. 

"Don't worry. I am off duty now. Give me one minute to change. Then, we will go to watch your favourite movie!" The senior officer said with a wry smile but the girlfriend was still angry. 

To appease her, after changing his clothes to normal ones, he went to the shopping mall and bought her favourite dresses. The girlfriend was very happy and finally forgave him.

Then both of them went to the movie theatre to watch the latest horror movie. The lady enjoyed it a lot. The senior officer couldn't stop sweating a lot. Even the tissue papers he had brought were finished up. 

He could only wipe his forehead with his sleeves and threw the 3D glasses away in fright. Then he turned to his girlfriend and said anxiously, "Babe, are you done yet?"

"Can't you see the movie isn't finished?! Why would I be done!" The girlfriend was busy eating popcorn and enjoying the movie with displeasure. 

The senior officer pondered if he should just sleep and overcome the hideous horror movie when he got a call. 

"Hey, man! You are disturbing us!" The person who sat behind his seat said in irritation. 

"Sorry, sorry!" The man said and hurriedly walked out. When he saw the call was from his boss, he hurriedly accepted the call.

"Sir!" The senior officer called out seriously. From the other side, a deep and stern voice came out and began to scold him. 

"How can you not notify me of such a big thing?!" The old man yelled out. 

"Sir, you don't need to worry. I have handled the matter." The senior officer said confidently. 

"How can I not worry? Right after the thing happened, my phone has been bombarded with several calls! Go to the police station and handle this matter strictly. Now, because of you, I am under pressure! Useless!" The boss shouted and then hung up with a bang!

The senior officer was stumped and hurriedly went to the police station. Right after he entered the station, the man paused in his steps. 

When the people inside turned to look at him, the senior officer felt stifled. Nil, Ethan Han's assistant, with three other top tier lawyers standing beside him, waved his hand and said with a smile, "Officer, long time no see…"

The senior officer: "..."

…

Abroad, midnight.

A police officer went towards the prisons and opened the prison gate in which Ji Yanli and others were. The woman woke up with a fluster as the sound of metal against metal rang out. 

With misty eyes, Ji Yanli eyed the man who unlocked the gate and stood at one side, unmoving. After pondering, she stood up and other people were already awake. 

"Ah, finally! I am out… heavens! Thanks!" Ji Yanli cried out tears of joy when she was let out of the prison. She felt like falling on the floor and crying until she floods the place! 

The bad and disgusting odour, coupled with bitings of horrifying mosquitos made her have a mini-mental breakdown!

Yan Luhan raised his eyes at her exclamation and waited for the officer to say something. But the man stood aside and let Ji Yanli walk out. 

From afar, Nil stared at her calmly and saw four other men following her. When Ben and Michael saw him, they were taken aback as shock and admiration filled their eyes.

However, the burly man stared at Ji Yanli only and after she had arrived in front of him, he smiled and said, "Miss Ji, you have made a huge mess this time. But then, it's not my biggest concern. I hope that you're well. "

"I am fine, Nil. Thank him for me when you go back." Ji Yanli was ashamed as she tucked her hair behind her ears and smiled awkwardly. While doing so, both her and Mail's eyes fell on her handcuffs. 

Nil turned around and glanced at one of his lawyers as he said sternly, "Did you see it?"

"Yes. I will note it down." The lawyer nodded. Then he turned to the police officer who came to unlock Ji Yanli's prison and said, "Why did you have them wear the handcuffs even after locking them up? Don't you know the law?!"

Another lawyer said at this moment, "Blatant display of abuse! I can no longer tolerate this! Let's see each other in court!"

"..." The policeman who could only follow his senior's commands!

Wang Haixiao looked at Nil and both of them nodded at each other. Then all of them came out of that place and reached the main room of the police station. 

Currently, the senior officer had an ashen face as if he had been fed shiet! He looked up and calmly glanced at Ji Yanli. The latter grinned evilly and sat down on the chair arrogantly. 

Ji Yanli put her locked hands on the desk and asked with evil intentions, "Officer, please release me~ It's hurts~ You've bruised my previous skins a lot~"

"..." Nil was startled by Ji Yanli's odd behaviour. Never had he seen her like this. 'Where is the decisive and intelligent Miss Ji?!'

Wang Haixiao rubbed his forehead and thought helplessly, 'Why is her behaviour becoming so bold?!'

The senior officer stood up and then personally went over to unlock her handcuffs. After getting rid of them, she sighed in relief and rubbed her wrists. When she turned to the senior officer, the latter took out a file from a random drawer.

"Sign here and then you can leave." The senior officer swift placed a file in front of her and put the pen aside. Ji Yanli took the paper and began to read. It turned out, the thing had printed out the incident and all her statements. If she signed it, she would be implicated with trouble. 

Ji Yanli turned around and stared at Nil like a poor puppy. Those eyes were screaming, 'Help me!'. Nil turned his attention from her face to the papers. As he took them and read, the man was speechless and got a clear view of what had actually happened.
