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

Luo Lixi turned around and started to walk towards the mansion. 'Is there a thing like privacy in my life?!' 

"Wait for me." Sheng Ruming immediately caught up to her. "Are you displeased by something? You were fine a minute ago…"

"It's okay." She didn't say anything but Sheng Ruming felt her endless depression from her voice. He knew he was responsible for this thus decided to remain silent...

*** ***

In a nightclub, Yan Ruomin was looking around. She just came here to spend her time as she didn't have anything else to do at home.

A lot of people, especially youngsters, were busy dancing on the dance floor. She lifted her head and a peaceful expression was showed in her face as if this place was her home.

"Miss is waiting for someone?" The bartender asked.

"Yes." The lady elegantly lifted the drink and took a small sip. Her red lips touched the small very gracefully but to others it looked very sexy...

"Your boyfriend?" The young, blonde man asked as he eyed her and examined her sneakily. 

She placed the glass down and tugged a lock of her loose hair behind her ear lazily and answered, "No…"

Yan Ruomin was wearing a red shirt and a tight-fitting mini skirt and… of course her red high heels. 

Anybody would get mesmerised if they could just see her sweet smile even once.

Even though many men had already asked her to join them in the dance, she refused and continued to stay at a corner, drinking. 

Yan Ruomin turned at the DJ and silently muttered, "It's so messy."

The man nodded as if he understood and stopped asking more questions as another customer came for a drink.

"Why isn't he here yet?" She checked her hand and saw it was past 10 pm. She picked her phone and called Feng Shaoling, "Where are you? I have been waiting for so long!"

"I am on my way." The man's sound came from the other end of the mobile. 

"Hurry up." She cut the call and asked for another drink. 

After some minutes, Feng Shaoling finally arrived at the club. But there was another man with him, it was his friend, Jonas.

The man frowned as he glanced around.

"Oho! It's a surprise that you have dragged me here. For your friend?! Even though you hate these places!" Jonas chuckled as he teased him. He was a frequent visitor who would occasionally come to nightclubs to have some fun...

Yan Ruomin waved her hand towards them when she noticed their presence. "I am here!"

"Is that Asian girl your friend?!" Jonas asked in astonishment. Feng Shaoling's heard his voice next, "Don't tell me she's the lady on whom you have a secret crush."

"Don't joke around." The man paused for a few minutes and then clarified, "She's not that one…" 

Both of them started to walk towards Yan Ruomin.

"Phew! Then… don't scold me later when I try to hook up with her." 

"I don't think she would. Her taste is way better. "

"Ah, man, really!" Jonas looked at his back and said in grievance.

Feng Shaoling walked towards Yan Ruomin and asked, "It's so late. Why are you still here? Also, why did you call me to come?"

"You ask too many questions. There was nobody to accompany me. So I called you to come. Stay with me for some hours." 

Feng Shaoling frowned. He eyed the small glasses before her and thought, 'How did Yan Luhan allow her to come here? Moreover, she's alone in this city...'

Usually, he would be busy during this time but because she called him and asked him to come in a grave voice, he was worried that Yan Ruomin might be in trouble. Yet he felt like she's being absurd.

Jonas saw the man was silent. He walked out from behind and decided to introduce himself.

"Hey, I am Jonas, Shaoling's friend. If you want a person to accompany you here, you can…" Jonas pointed at himself, "...me!" The man winked at her seductively. 

Yan Ruomin smiled wickedly at the man. Even though, internally her face cracked! Feng Shaoling couldn't bear to see his friend flirting so obviously. He rubbed his nose and went to the side to sit on a stool.

"Hey, beauty. Will you mind if I sit beside you?"

Yan Ruomin didn't reject the idea. Thus, she shook her head. Then, Jonas directly dragged a stool and sat beside her as well.

When a lot of time had passed, Feng Shaoling turned towards the two people. They were both busy laughing and teasing. 

People would fail to guess that they had just met a while ago.

"Hahaha! This cup is yours!"

"No! You have to finish this. I clearly remember it's your turn now." Yan Ruomin said. She was saying in a grave tone but deep down she was enjoying this.

"No, it's your turn!" Jonas and Yan Ruomin sat together and tried to force each other to drink an extremely strong shot of drink.

Earlier, Both of them talked a lot and eventually became a little bit close. 

"I have to leave now." Feng Shaoling felt like he was wasting his time. He stood up and said, "Will you come with me or not?"

This question was directed at Jonas but the man didn't say anything. Rather, he was busy laughing and joking with the woman.

"Jonas!" As Feng Shaoling increased his volume, both people turned at him.

"What?" Jonas asked. Taking this chance, Yan Ruomin moved the little glass before him and acted as if nothing happened.

"I am going back. Will you stay here?"

Even before Jonas could say anything, Yan Ruomin opened her mouth and coquettishly said, "You go back. Jonas will stay here." 

"..."

"Okay then." Jonas was more than happy to stay.

"That car is mine." Jonas showed him the keys.

"I know. I will go to the apartment. Give me the key."

"No. I won't find any taxi late at night."  He said, "Why are you in a hurry? Stay here for a while more. We will return later."

Feng Shaoling sighed and sat down again. Jonas stared at the dancing floor and asked. 

"Shall we?" Jonas reached out for her hand. Yan Ruomin thought it's alright to go with him as he was Feng Shaoling's friend. 

She gave him her hand and both of them went up to the dance floor. Feng Shaoling turned his face away and decided he would leave after a few minutes more.

Yan Ruomin slowly let loose and blended with the surroundings. Jonas saw Feng Shaoling was looking elsewhere. He took the chance and asked, "Do you want to go to the ocean someday? My friend has a private yacht."

Yan Ruomin smiled and put her hands on his chest and ran them back and forth a few times. 

The man narrowed his eyes and a pleased smile appeared in his face as he tried to touch the back of her palm.

But then Yan Ruomin went beside his ear and whispered, "I am not an easy prey. Find someone else." The next moment, she wiped her hands on his chest and turned around to leave. 

"Hey, have you misunderstood something?" Jonas caught her hand from behind. He was clearly displeased.

"No." Yan Ruomin smiled and tried to take back her hand but was dragged by Jonas instead.

"Sigh! Let's dance then." Yan Ruomin swayed her body from side to side, following the rhythm of music. Jonas didn't even understand what just happened.

He subconsciously turned at Feng Shaoling. The latter smirked when their eyes met.

'What man?!' He mouthed and showed his hands in surrender. Feng Shaoling glanced at Yan Ruomin and then turned to stare on the table.

  "Jonas, where are you two living?" Yan Ruomin turned around and asked.

"It's a… secret!" Jonas said with all seriousness. Yan Ruomin just snorted when she heard it.

She stopped after a few moments and went back beside Feng Shaoling. The man stood up and glanced at the two people who were acting too close.

"Next time, don't call me and act like that. I will be busy with my job." Feng Shaoling rubbed his chin and said, "If you feel lonely, then call Li Xixi. I am sure Ruming won't mind."

Yan Ruomin gave him a glance and said, "Who? Li Xixi? Hasn't she gone back to the country  with Sheng Ruming?"

"Went back?! When? Why don't I know?" Feng Shaoling felt incredulous. 'Why am I the one who gets news in the end?!'

"It's not like you three are very attached and that he must tell you for anything!" She said as another little glass made its way towards her. 

Yan Ruomin just eyed it once and then gulped down without hesitation.

'They went back. Miss Li… I will definitely meet her in the future.' Feng Shaoling thought deeply. In his deep eyes, a hidden obsession was started to take form.
