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

The old man became the temporary CEO even though he was the president and Mu Jiang became his messenger cum eyes in the company. The poor Mu Jiang had lost 5kg already and his lungs hurt!

"He is indeed busy…" Sheng Ruming replied with scornful eyes. "Rather than causing trouble for Ji Yanli, he should better return and take care of his company. I won't leave any good projects for him just because he is my bro!"

Mu Jiang heard the extremely cold voice of the man and realized something was wrong. His gossipy heart kicked in as he went beside Sheng Ruming's ear and whispered, "Bro, what about sister Yanli? Has the idiot done something wrong? Just tell me. I will notify Uncle so that he can take care of this matter strictly!" 

Sheng Ruming smirked and told Mu Jiang of all the mess Yan Luhan had made abroad. The more Mu Jiang heard, the more he was excited and thrilled. 'Such a juicy piece of news… I can't wait for an extra second to tell uncle!'

"Cough! Bro, I have to go to the washroom…" Mu Jiang whispered and acted as if he was helpless. His acting was so bad that Luo Lixi couldn't help her smile from breaking out and hid her face as she tried to drink juice. 

"Go then. Who has stopped you?" Sheng Ruming squinted his eyes and no longer gave him any attention. He turned to his sweetheart and asked, "Babe, do you want to eat something?"

"Anything except medicines." Luo Lixi put on a polite smile and replied. 

"… Ah, now that you have reminded me of this... I seem to have forgotten to give you an injection today." Sheng Ruming murmured as he turned around and motioned at Xiao Huang. The latter nodded and left. 

"..." Luo Lixi spat out the drink on the ground in shock. 'Why did I even open my mouth! Aish!' Luo Lixi scolded herself with a frown and made a disgusted face while recalling the medicines.

…

After one hour. 

"Brother, look, they are also here." Feng Alin pointed at Sheng Ruming and Luo Lixi. Currently, outside of the garden, under the large tents, a buffet was prepared for guests. 

Sheng Ruming was busy putting food in Luo Lixi's plates and the lady was busy eating and feeding the man with a spoon. 

On other occasions, she would never do this. But after getting provoked by women like Yan Ruomin, Miss Jiang and the outside flower of her damn husband as well as knowing that there could be many other 'blind dates' in the crowd, her pride got provoked and her dormant possessiveness finally broke out of the cocoon!

To claim her ownership, Luo Lixi abandoned shyness and blatantly showed a PDA. She didn't mind the jealous eyes of many ladies but she was worried that they wouldn't be jealous!

With her possessiveness, others were sure at disadvantage but the man himself was at advantage! With a wide grin, he sat idle letting his wife spoil him in front of the crowd.

Showing off his woman feeding him, his woman!

"Hubby, do you like carrots?" Luo Lixi asked as she picked up one and held it in front of him. 

"You like?" The man asked back. He eyed her with playfulness and only concentrated on her face. The man wasn't even bothered to hide his love for Luo Lixi. 

Creak~ 

The glass Miss Jiang was holding fell on the ground. Her fiancé turned to her and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing!" She replied with a hump and turned her eyes away from the couple. 

"Hm-mm. I like it." Luo Lixi nodded and the man happily opened his lips, ready to eat whatever his baby offered. 

He also fed her back and whispered with double meaning, "After we go back, I will give you another stick, tastier than this cooked carrot." 

"..." Luo Lixi was silent and stopped chewing. 'How can he direct my innocent words to the lewd path so easily?!'

While thinking, she shoved her spoon directly in his mouth. Not minding that, he flinched. Soon, some people came and Sheng Ruming had to go away. Luo Lixi also stood up and strolled around the place. 

Some people came to her as well and all of them exchanged greetings. Afterwards, she became alone and saw Sheng Ruming from afar. 

Noticing her wandering alone, Feng Alin left Feng Shaoling behind and walked up to Luo Lixi with a cute smile, the ones many young ladies love! 

When Feng Alin went up to Luo Lixi, the latter turned around and smiled."Doctor Feng." 

"Ah, sister in law, I am not him…" Feng Alin was embarrassed as he stood beside her and whispered, "How can a sunny boy like me be compared with that wood?!"

"Oh?" Luo Lixi voiced her puzzlement. Feng Alin turned to glance at one corner and Luo Lixi did as well. There, she saw Mu Jiang, Feng Shaoling and other familiar faces. 

It could be said that all people of the same circle were there. Sheng Ruming had naturally noticed them right after he came but he only wanted to spend some time with her and didn't go there. 

When Luo Lixi followed his eyes, she saw Feng Shaoling. The man nodded at her and she nodded back. Feng Alin turned back and asked "Why don't you come with me? Rather than wandering alone, it'll be good if you come to our place."

Luo Lixi didn't reply right away and turned to look at her man. Sheng Ruming was busy socialising and talking about business matters with other men. And when he starts once, he forgets about other matters easily. 

Luo Lixi knew about this matter and finally replied, "Let's go then."

Feng Alin smiled and both of them walked up to the tent where Mu Jiang and Feng Shaoling were present. It had sitting arrangements for the guests. 

When Feng Shaoling saw them coming, he stood up and went ahead. This time, Luo Lixi clearly noticed the slight difference between the two men and greeted Feng Shaoling. "Doctor Feng…"

"Miss Luo. It's been a while." Feng Shaoling said and nodded.

"Yes." Luo Lixi smiled back politely. 

Feng Alin wasn't interested in socializing, greetings or whatsoever. He directly went to the drinks section and began to make drinks while snatching Mu Jiang's bottles.

The tent was big enough and everyone was busy with their own matters. 

Feng Shaoling glanced at Luo Lixi deeply. After staring for quite a while, he asked, "Miss Luo, are you fine? Is the medicine working?"

Luo Lixi paused when she was asked suddenly. She didn't think that Feng Shaoling would know about her conditions but giving it another thought, it was normal. 

"It works quite okay…" Luo Lixi smiled bitterly. If she could, she would have told him to make some sweet medicines for her. 

Looking at the bitter face of the other person, he felt sad. Feng Shaoling stepped ahead and asked, "Are you happy, Miss Luo?" 

Luo Lixi was oblivious to Feng Shaoling's feelings towards her. She removed the bitter smile and asked, "Why did you ask that, Doctor Feng?"

Feng Shaoling sighed and smiled mildly. Luo Lixi was startled when she saw the cute dimple on the man's cheek appearing again. She had a soft spot for such things and broke out in a delightful smile. 

The man saw this and thought she was trying to be strong outside. He shook his head and whispered, "Don't worry about the baby. After it is born, you will get it anyway."

"..." Luo Lixi could no longer smile when she heard him. She eyed him deeply and said nothing. Feng Shaoling guessed he was right about Luo Lixi being sad about her baby. 

He nodded and left soon after as he didn't want to get unnecessary attention. Luo Lixi stood in her spot and followed Feng Shaoling's footsteps. She clenched her fists and pondered, 'I will get the baby? That woman's child?... They definitely knew about my body condition when I was in a coma for the first time.'

Then her eyes fell on Sheng Ruming who was still in his discussion and thought, 'Does Ruming want me to take care of his child?… Dream on!'

Not being able to have one of her own was hurting her already but the thought of Sheng Ruming being keen for a baby that he ended up having a mistress was too much, she never felt this humiliated and betrayed!

Luo Lixi made up her mind right that instant. 'Even if I can't give birth to your child, I will never accept your illegitimate child. If you insist on bringing it in, you better be prepared to lose everything!'

Luo Lixi felt that she was played by everyone. She was also ready to play with them if needed!

Feng Alin saw her silently standing in one corner and staring ahead. He went up and offered her a glass, "Sister in law, do you want to have a drink? It's light."
