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

When she turned at him, Sheng Ruming nodded. Thus she stood up and spoke softly, "I will come back in a while."

Luo Qintian remained motionless even when the door was closed. He gazed outside of the room. Black clouds were trying to cover the beautiful moon. Chilly wind entered the room via the open windows.

"What do you think? Will she insist on staying together with you if I disclose everything?" Luo Qintian took out a portrait. It was a family photo where both his son and daughter were together with the rest of the family.

"You can say if you want. I believe she has the basic trust in me. Also, I wasn't in fault even though I had to suffer." Sheng Ruming lifted his head and replied without hesitation. 

Luo Qintian remained silent. 

"Yes. Back then, only for her did I let you go, alive." Luo Qintian put the portrait on the desk and turned around. He looked down on the man frostily who was kneeling before him, staring at the floor.

"I was innocent."

"But everything pointed at your family. It's of no use even if you are innocent. But I let you go because you were." He looked at his hands and murmured, "It's not my way to kill innocent people, moreover the one who has saved my granddaughter."

Sheng Ruming stood up unhurriedly and said to him, "I will marry her even if you disagree. But, if you force her to become someone else's wife, I will destroy him!"

Sheng Ruming didn't hide anything anymore. He showed his intentions barely to the old man. Even if there was a possibility that both of them would get destroyed if they really didn't do this, he didn't care.

Luo Qintian smiled when he was threatened on his face in his own home by an outsider.

"Huh! Young man, talk before you have the ability. What if one day, this tongue of yours becomes your demise?" 

"I am telling the truth." 

Luo Qintian stopped smiling. He simply glanced at Sheng Ruming's eyes and told him deeply, "If you want her, then prove your worth to me. Kill your father by your own hands. Then I will consider." 

Sheng Ruming couldn't contain his laughter when he heard him. "I expected this from you."

"You people are no different than killers!" Sheng Ruming inched towards the old man and stared at his eyes, "You can try to forbid her to meet me. However…"

He went beside Luo Qintian's left ear and whispered, "Have she told you that we went abroad for her treatment?" The old man turned his face and both of them looked into each other's eyes, one had madness and another had loathing deep in those black orbs.

"That… we stayed in the same room, shared the same bed and did everything lovers would do…"

Pa~

A fierce slap landed on Sheng Ruming's face. The man tasted the salty-metallic thing in his mouth. He wiped the corner of his lips and saw the blood.

"You insolent, inhumane, bastard!" 

Luo Qintian went to slap him again but he caught his hand. "She's not a virgin anymore. Someday, you might hear she's pregnant with my child. If you don't let her marry me, it's okay with me as well."

"You… " Luo Qintian felt like this man had come to kill him. "Xixi would never do such a thing! Don't slander her..."

"You can ask her if you don't believe me. I even know there is a mole at her back…" Sheng Ruming became the ultimate shameless person in the whole world who would tell such a thing to her soon to be grandfather-in-law.

Luo Qintian was surprised when he heard that. Because he knew there was a big mole on her back. When she was a little baby, her grandmother would gossip about every detail about her to him.

"Xixi! Come inside!" 

Sheng Ruming stiffened in his place as cold sweat broke in his back. He didn't expect the old man to really call Luo Lixi at that time. 'She would go mad if he asks her…'

Luo Lixi hurriedly entered the room and was startled when his bruised face appeared before her eyes. She turned at the old man and saw he was fuming beyond redemption.

"Were you staying in the same room with him when you were abroad?"

Luo Lixi was horrified when she was asked the question. She turned at Sheng Ruming in disbelief. 

"Why are you asking this, grandfather?!" She asked weakly. 'Did he say this to him? How can he?!'

"Answer me!" She flinched when Luo Qintian banged his hand on the desk. 

Luo Lixi nodded her head slowly. Her whole face turned red in shame. Luo Qintian glared at her face. His weak face was replaced by reddy complexion as anger rose to his head. She felt as if she would cry. 'What did he say to him? Why is he so angry? Aahhh!'

"You two! Get out of my sight!" The door was shut on their faces. "Grandfather, remember to drink your medicine!" 

Luo Lixi shouted. Then, she turned to the man who was standing beside her.

"You, what did you tell him? Why is he so mad?" Luo Lixi gritted her teeth. "You even told him that we slept together?!"

"He asked me to leave you." Sheng Ruming frowned.

"How can you be so insensitive?!" Luo Lixi dragged him with her and went straight to his room. She forced him to sit on a sofa and dragged a tool to sit down.

"Tell me everything from first to last. Don't miss out on anything!"

"I was talking… wuh! My face!" Sheng Ruming touched his face dramatically as his forehead creased in pain. Luo Lixi became worried when she saw droplets of blood coming out from his mouth.

"Ahh! Don't talk! Is it very serious?" Luo Lixi touched the bruise and checked. His face was injured from inside and outside. "Did grandfather…"

Sheng Ruming nodded his head.
