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

Before Wei Airan's pitiful eyes, even before Sheng Ruming could open his lips to deny, Luo Lixi had shrugged his hand away and moved towards Wei Airan hurriedly.

"Of course, Aunty."

Her eyes were reflecting a little bit of astonishment, her face was showing blatant eagerness to talk with Wei Airan.

Wei Airan was so happy that she tightened her grip on Luo Lixi but the man was turning more irritated.

"Aunty… I didn't know it's you. I… I have wanted to meet you for a long time. But he…" Luo Lixi grabbed Wei Airan's hands this time. In this group, only Chen Baishi was the only person who didn't know what was happening!

Moreover, Luo Lixi's intimated action made the man extremely jealous and provoked. His mind growled at him, 'Take her away or else your mother will be the first person to take all of her time!'

"Ma, it's so late now. How about we return to…" Sheng Ruming reached out for Luo Lixi's back but Wei Airan directly shut him up. 

"I am bringing her to my room now. You should come and visit us later if you want." She didn't wait and directly dragged Luo Lixi with her. 

Chen Baishi glanced at Sheng Ruming and then turned to Wei Airan. Afterwards, she also entered the resort and left Sheng Ruming alone. 

When Luo Lixi's back nearly vanished from his sight, she turned around and mouthed 'sorry'. Sheng Ruming only snorted. He spat on the ground and fumed in anger.

"Boss, we found miss Luo. She is with two other women. One staff member just told me..." Xiao Huang ran up to him and whispered. 

Sheng Ruming glared at the man who seemed as if his life was saved. Sheng Ruming heavily put one of his arms on his shoulder and whispered in a very scary tone which could make people shudder, weak and threatened.

"My Xiao Huang, your efficiency as a top-notch bodyguard is only a title now. I've found her even before you." 

His arm around Xiao Huang's neck tightened. The latter was turning red and he was having difficulty. Even then he didn't try to struggle. 

"It's… it's my fault…" Xiao Huang spoke out after much difficulty. 

At that Sheng Ruming's arm tightened more. He felt annoyed and furious. After two minutes, he let go of the man. 

"Cough cough!" Xiao Huang immediately dropped to the ground and tried to catch his breath. When he lifted his head, Sheng Ruming's frosty and critical gaze greeted him.

"Even though she's unreasonable and willful, don't forget that she's my woman." The man turned around and left after he spoke in disappointment, "Don't you dare look at her with your boring and judgemental eyes again. If you dare… I will poke out your eyes!"

Xiao Huang shuddered when he listened. "... understood." 

Afterwards, Sheng Ruming left the place. One of the bodyguards ran up to him from afar and supported him. Slowly the man stood up.

"Are you okay?"

"Hmm. Cough! Cough!" Xiao Huang patted his chest and tried to regain his composure. Then he side glanced at the other man and muttered under his breath, "Tighten the security of this."

The other man nodded and then he whispered, "I have seen Boss's mother earlier. She dragged Miss Luo with her."

Xiao Huang was perplexed, "You sure?"

"Hundred percent!" The man nodded.

"Oh. Alright. Then… call the other people and tell them to come here. This area isn't being guarded the amount it needs." 

"Yes!" 

The man then retreated and went to his place he should stand. Xiao Huang took a deep breath and then ran into the resort. 'I nearly forgot the real face of my boss after she came. What a foolish thing I have done!' The man thought as he walked to the manager's office.

*** ***

"Come inside. This is my room." Wei Airan pushed open her room's door. Both Luo Lixi and Chen Baishi had entered with her. As her sight fell on the room, she knitted her eyes.

"Yanli?" 

Luo Lixi was startled when Wei Airan called out. In the next second, Ji Yanli walked out from the balcony. 

"Aunt, how about we use the exclusive hot spring tonight… eh?!" 

Ji Yanli blinked her eyes and saw Luo Lixi. At first, she failed to remember who she was but then her brain short-circuited when she remembered.

"Aunty, she is…" Ji Yanli tried to probe Wei Airan first. The woman however glanced at her in pity.

The emotion came and disappeared in a mere second. If Ji Yanli wasn't sharp enough she would have missed it. 'Why give me this look, Aunt Wei?!' The unaware lady pondered.

Wei Airan tried to read Ji Yanli's face. As an experienced lady from the upper class, she detected that Ji Yanli knew Luo Lixi.

"As Sheng Ruming's secretary and close friend, I think you already know, Yanli. Don't deny it." 

Before the intense eyes of Wei Airan, Ji Yanli became mute. She could only cough to hide her awkwardness and remain silent.

"Girl Luo, do you want to sit outside or on our balcony? The resort also has sitting arrangements in the open." Wei Airan asked Luo Lixi. However, the latter was also feeling awkward because of the things Wei Airan had said to Ji Yanli earlier.

Chen Baishi understood that the situation wasn't suitable for an outsider like her to remain. Thus, without making any noise, she left. Even though the other people had noticed, they ignored her.

"Why don't you two go to the balcony? There are also Aunt Su and Aunt Chi? Aunty will have to answer them if they see her. It will be troublesome…" Ji Yanli muttered. Wei Airan nodded after Ji Yanli finished her thoughts. 

Thus the two went to the balcony. While Ji Yanli changed into a proper dress and left the room to give them privacy. As soon as she left, Sheng Ruming's face greeted her which gave her another shock.
