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

In anger, Wang Haixiao gulped down the tea and flinched in the next second.

"Hey, it's still hot. You will get burned… " Zhou Lei's advice was unnecessary because the man had already stood up and directly went to the washroom.

"Stop talking. Start working and finish it soon. Today I will take you to my home." Chen Shubin whispered. Zhou Lei nodded but even then his frown didn't go away.

… ...

Sheng Ruming came back to the Sheng family's old home. As soon as he entered, aunt Lin came forward, "Young master, your father is currently in the back garden." 

It's clear that he's father had instructed Aunt Lin to tell him beforehand. 

Without standing further, he turned aside and began to walk. After ten minutes, he finally saw the back of his father. The man was standing before the artificial pond.

Sheng Haotin knew right away that he had come, "I didn't think you would arrive so soon. Unlike the past,  it has taken more than two hours for you to come." 

The old man checked his watch and saw, barely twenty minutes had passed by. 

"Father, I…"

"Luo Qintian knows that I was involved in his son's murder case." Sheng Haotin slowly turned around and faced the young man who paused, "Does she know too?"

Sheng Ruming clenched his palm as tight as he could. His knuckles turned pale and white while his face twisted in despair.

"No… "

Hearing him, Sheng Haotin burst into laughter, "Don't you fear that if she learned about this matter, her liking towards you will turn into pure hatred?"

The old man put his two hands behind his back and stepped forward, "Her parent's death… has given me a new chance to resurrect my company. If she knew…"

"Have you called me to come to say these?! Or are you threatening me that you will tell her?" Sheng Ruming's calm composer crumbled as he stared into the old man's eyes.

"No. I was just surprised that you like the girl whose father and grandfather both have put you in torture… " The old man came one step closer and whispered again, "Does she know this?"

Sheng Ruming took a deep breath and answered instead, "She doesn't need to know. She is not them. It's none of her business what her family members have done to me." 

Sheng Ruming took a step behind and stared at the man in front of him, "Just like you. What you have done… is not my fault."

Sheng Haotin stared at the man and smiled. "What about her grandfather?"

"He has given his consent."

Sheng Haotin turned towards the pond and whispered, "Really?The old man has agreed? Has he gone mad or has he forgotten everything?"

"Father, you, why are you asking this? Isn't it enough?" Sheng Ruming stared at the old man's back. 

Sheng Haotin bent down and took a little cane. He threw the last piece of meat in the river. Several fishes made a whirlpool around the food and made a great deal of disturbance in the calm water. 

Only after that, Sheng Haotin turned around and intended to say more but…

From afar, he saw Wei Airan was coming towards them. As soon as she got near, she heard and nearly tripped on her step, "Tell them, we will go to their place tomorrow. I don't want to hear anymore that my son has been cuckolded by his 'friend' as soon as the marriage was offered." 

Both Sheng Ruming and Wei Airan had understood that Sheng Haotin was talking about the matter regarding Ji Yanli. 

Even Wei Airan was disturbed because some ladies had called her as soon as the photos got online. At this stage, only Su Mengsi had yet to give her the last phone call.

"Ah Hao… " Wei Airan was tense when she knew both the father-son duo were talking alone. She was anxious that they would get into an argument and the situation would accelerate into something unpleasant. 

But as soon as she heard Sheng Haotin's lines, she was too happy that she nearly tripped on the plain lane. "Madam, be careful." 

Due to aunt Lin's assistance, she was saved from a disgraceful situation. 

"You should be happy now, Airan. I have given my consent. Go and make preparation. We will leave for Long city early tomorrow morning." Sheng Haotin said to her and then left. 

Wei Airan turned towards her son and walked beside him, "Child, what have you said to your father for him to agree so easily? I have thought before that it would at least take six months for him to budge and another six month to give his approval. I have even made a battle plan to force him… ah! Forget it."

Both Sheng Ruming and Aunt Lin kept silent and didn't question her plan. Wei Airan grabbed his hand and said, "Come with me. I will make a list of gifts for my in-laws. Give me some ideas."

Sheng Ruming opened his hand and let her drag him till the drawing room of the first floor. When Wei Airan sat down and began to make a list, Sheng Ruming silently sent her a list from his phone. 

"... I guess I was fretting for nothing. My son has already made all the preparations." Wei Airan looked up and saw the embarrassing face of the man. 

"Aunt Lin, come with me to the shopping mall." Wei Airan stood up and called out to the old lady.

"Ma, you don't need to go. I will contact the mall to send everything or ask Ji Yanli to…"

Both of them paused when Ji Yanli was mentioned. Wei Airan sighed and murmured, "You should never mention another woman's name so thoughtlessly before your woman. You don't know what kind of misunderstanding you might cause." 

"I understand." Even he wasn't willing to let Luo Lixi get any fault in him.

"Also, I think I will buy all the gifts by myself.  This way, I will be at ease." The woman beamed in happiness as she called for Aunt Lin again.

"Madam, I am here." Aunt Lin put down the antique she was wiping carefully and came rushing but when she got nearer, her steps became slow like snails.
