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

The mother pulled her little daughter closer who was staring at the ceiling with her big eyes and covered her ears, "Baby! Why did you wake up?! It's too early!"

"Didn't you say this hotel is the best in this city and has the best service?! But this hotel is not suitable for our stay!" The daughter innocently eyed up her mother, who was yelling at her dad with emotions she couldn't understand. 

The poor father was scolded until he cowered away in the furthest corner of the bed, until his wife calmed down.

When the time came, the family left with dissatisfaction and heavy feelings. The father murmured, "Let's go and find another hotel." 

The little girl watched her mother nodding her head with anger. Even when they notified the hotel about this problem, the manager was even more nonchalant!

"I swear, we are never coming back to this damn hotel!" 

The couple walked away with their child, while the kid watched the hotel getting smaller with the distance increased while her mothers angry muttering flying around the whole path.

…

"Sigh~"

The cold breeze blew over, making Luo Lixi's long hair flutter in the wind, with the cold breeze she was trying to ease her fluttering heart. 

She wanted to freshen up but with the thought of what she did come flashing by, made her shy and blushy.

Thus, she stretched out her hands and tried to throw her thoughts away as she raised her hands higher to put her hairs back in place. 

Currently, she was wearing a white shirt that reached her upper thigh. When Luo Lixi woke up, she saw she was in his white shirt while the man was bare-chested!

Her lips sighed heavily when she saw the gloomy weather. It's been raining heavily and the whole sky looked very depressing. 

When she turned around, her eyes fell on the man who was busy taking his sweet time to rest. 

The humid air had entered the hotel room, clearing the smell of love and making it clear, even though it was impossible not until she would clear everything.

Luo Lixi walked to the coffee table and saw the time on the phone, also the ten missed calls from Luo Biwun. 

"Sigh~"

Another heavy sigh escaped Luo Lixi's tired lips. She had clearly set the alarm so that she could wake up in time to return to the Long city yet she didn't hear the sound. It was clear whose work it was. 

"Huh~" Her lips which had turned red from the intense care of the man, blew another hot breath.

She glanced at Sheng Ruming, who had a blissful smile on his face while sleeping. She couldn't help but rub her waist and murmured, "Damn pervert!"

But while saying that, she broke out in laughter. She knew she loved that pervert so damn much!

…

When Sheng Ruming woke up from his bed, he smiled broadly. But when he extended his arms across the bed he felt nothing.

He opened his eyes slowly, saw the empty bed and his smile disappeared. 'Where is she?!' He sat up and glanced around, but didn't see Luo Lixi. 

Then, Sheng Ruming's face changed into a scary one, his eyes getting darker in rage, he gritted his teeth and growled in anger, "Luo Lixi, you dared to leave again! Without even telling me?! You!" 

In anger he lost his mind, he looked around and picked up a pillow which was the closest and threw it on the large mirror of the dressing table in front of him. 

He hated seeing himself all alone in the bed inside the mirror. On top of that, just the thought that she left him right after eating his tofu, made him mad in anger. 

The thing made a loud thud sound as it hit against the glass and then fell on top of the marble table, scattering the things on top of it. 

The makeup box and the bottle of accessories standing still on the table fell down one by one and made a huge disturbance in the peaceful silence of the morning.

Right then, a baffled voice came from under the bed. "Don't shout! I am right under you!"

"?!"

Hearing the noise, the man became steeled, he gasped looking around, her words hit him hard making him let out a squeal of surprise, having him jolt up and then away from the bed.

Not as he expected, he fell down on his butt as his leg stumbled with the duvet, caressing his sore butt as he calmed himself down.

 As soon as he found his pain becoming vague, he laid himself on the ground and peeked under the bed and became speechless.

It was Luo Lixi, in his shirt, trying to desperately find something. While searching, her eyes became worried as she swept her intense gaze around the floor. 

"What are you doing there? Come out now." Sheng Ruming's face, which was difficult to analyze just a second ago, had already turned very soft, to the point that nobody could link the two expressions as of one person!

"No, I can't. I have yet to find the ruby necklace you have given me in the past. It may have fallen here. I tried to search for it in other places but didn't find it!" Luo Lixi's anxious voice was very tense. 

The bed was huge and thus the backside was huge as well. She glanced at the floor but couldn't find it.

"You... Come out! I said come out! I will call the staff to help you find the necklace…" 

But the woman didn't reply. On the other hand, she was persistent when she was trying to search for her thing.

His emotions tangled with the necklace forbids her from dropping her search, it meant too much for her.

"Hey!"

"Shut up. Don't make noise." Luo Lixi blurted out as she crawled to the topmost part of the head of the bed, leaving him surprised at the sudden change in position.

He ended up getting yelled at for just a tiny thing he had gifted her in the past. It hurt his wounded heart further.

"..."

'This woman...' He stared at Luo Lixi who was very oblivious that her spring and treasured long legs were placed just in front of Sheng Ruming. 

"Ahh… Cough! Cough!" He gasped and choked on his own saliva.

Sheng Ruming had no idea he was gonna get such a privilege while she was busy searching for the necklace.

The young man's breath stopped as if just to admire the lewd scene in front of him. 

After not getting any response from the impatient Sheng Ruming, she became suspicious. 

'What is he up to?!' Luo Lixi turned sideways and glanced at him with a frown. Her lips twisted violently. 

Only then she remembered, she didn't have her underwear inside. 'Shit?!'

In the next second, a vicious kick was thrown towards Sheng Ruming's face as well as her baffled cries rang out, "Pervert!"

But as if he had predicted Luo Lixi would do such a thing, Sheng Ruming grabbed her ankle just at the right moment. 

He smirked at her failed attempt and his ego got boosted up with dominance, he chuckled, shaking his head and giving her a nasty look.

Then he whispered while laughing like a mad man, "I am not gonna give you another opportunity to hurt me. I have lost enough face, not anymore."

"What?!" Luo Lixi tried to free her ankle but the death-grip of the resolute man didn't let her succeed. She gritted her shiny teeth and shouted, "Then… take another kick!"

Her other leg flew just in front of him, ready to disfigure his face which was already under a lot of trouble.

Sheng Ruming didn't waste any breath and moved away and then, in just a few moments, he rolled under the bed as well, aligned beside her body. He grabbed her wrist and dragged her away forcefully. 

"Hey, I didn't find it! Don't drag me!" 

But her protest fell into deaf ears with him ignoring her. Sheng Ruming dragged her outside and then made her standup. 

Afterwards, he patted her shirts, seeming to ward off the dust. 

"Don't do such work by yourself. There are workers and staff. You can just call them and ask them to find your things. Or, you could have just told me after I woke up?" Sheng Ruming murmured while rubbing her face with a wet tissue paper. 

"I would have helped you then…" He said while blowing on her forehead which had a little piece of spider's net.

Luo Lixi puckered her lips and then folded her hands in front of her chest while he was wiping her face. After he was done, he pinched her flaring nose and asked, "Why are you mad again? You have a lot of tempers, don't you?"

She rubbed her nose violently and then glanced at the bed, said dejectedly, "I still didn't find the necklace…"
