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

"Shhh. You will be fine. We will go to the best hospital. You will become beautiful again, my dear. Ma will do anything to cure you." While Su Mengsi murmured, she patted Yan Ruomin's back like a mother who was trying to calm down her sad child. 

But Yan Ruomin was fuming in madness. If she could, she would have left the mansion to go to the Sheng Villa and made a scene again but alas! She didn't know her mother had made other preparations. 

"It will… take many days…" Yan Ruomin murmured with tears in her eyes and anger in her heart. 

"Isn't it good that you will be fine? Just stay here and don't go abroad. Call your university and take leave for a few more days. We can send money if we need to." Su Mengsi whispered while her eyes turned dark. 

Both Patriarch Yan and Yan Luhan had ignored her plea and didn't help when she wanted to help Yan Ruomin out of the bad situation. Thus she wanted to teach them a lesson as well as pave a way for her daughter. She had understood that she could no longer depend on them for her daughter's safety. 

Yan Ruomin closed her eyes and hummed in agreement but as soon as she did, the horrifying face of the maid came in front of her and made her scream on top of her lungs, "Ahhhhh…."

She crouched down and tightly grabbed her head as she made crazy noises. Su Mengsi was shocked and stumbled back. A maid went ahead and helped her to get stabilised. 

The young doctor moved this time and tried to help her to get up but Yan Ruomin slapped his hand away. 

"Xiao Lian Chun, you bastard! Who do you think you are?! Dare to touch me?! You piece of garbage!" Yan Ruomin vented all her grievances on the young doctor as she glared at him while she was in her crouching position. 

"Minmin, don't." Su Mengsi saw the awkward situation and intervened so that Yan Ruomin wouldn't make it even worse. "He is your former classmate. How can you scold him like that? Apologize!"

"I won't!" Yan Ruomin shouted. 

The man turned embarrassed and realized many eyes were on him. He tried to maintain a professional face in front of everyone, "Miss Yan, as a former classmate, let me give you a good piece of advice. I think you should go and see a psychiatrist. At this rate, you will continue to have mental issues. I know a good one who..."

Before he could finish, Yan Ruomin stood up abruptly. Her eyes were red as she glared at the young doctor. After being stared at so intensely, the doctor became nervous and stepped back, "Yan Ruomin..."

Pa!

A loud sound rang out, also a clear red handprint on the young doctor's face. Everyone was so stunned that they forgot to move from their place. After a while, Su Mengsi got back her senses and shouted in a mild tone, "Minmin!"

"Ma! He deserves a slap! How dare he imply that I have mental issues… Wuak!!!" While Yan Ruomin was pointing at the doctor and talking as she shivered, suddenly she felt nausea and ran to the washroom. 

"Minmin, what's wrong with you?!" Su Mengsi ran behind her in panic. In the room, the young doctor was left with the other doctors and nurses. He felt very awkward as the judgemental gazes of others were on him. 

Suddenly one of the doctors went to him and whispered, "Doctor Xiao, you are director Xiao's nephew so I will give you a piece of advice. Stay away from this woman. She has a very bad reputation in the circle."

"I know, Doctor Lian." The young doctor replied as he turned to look at the washroom. After thinking for a while, he said, "Let's go out."

A nurse went to him with a first aid box and said with a blush, "Doctor Xiao, let me help you."

"Okay. Let's get out of here." Afterwards, except for one nurse, the others went out. 

After all, nobody was blind there. They all could see that this doctor Xiao Lian Chun was interested in Yan Ruomin. Even though the lady was currently in a bad state, both her beauty and family status were top notch. If anybody could tolerate or ignore her temper, he would be a winner in life. 

The current doctor Xiao was a person who had such a personality. To climb up the social ladder and stand at the same line as his uncle Xiao Peilan, he was willing to do anything! 

…

At night, 9:05 pm.

Sheng Ruming came back to the new duplex apartment after spending an intense work session in the Sheng Industry and Corporation. 

The man was very tired yet his eyes sparkled when he entered the apartment. But contrary to his expectation, nobody was there in the front room which made him displeased. 

The man entered and called out in a loud voice, "Lixi, where are you?"

"In the bedroom!" The lady's crispy voice floated in the whole apartment. 

"Which one? The below or above one?!" Sheng Ruming asked in confusion because they had yet to decide on a master bedroom. 

There were many rooms in the entire duplex apartment and one was better than the other one. He was very hasty and left because he was having a hard time controlling his desire and lust. Thus he didn't know which one Luo Lixi had picked. 

Right at this time, one of the maids appeared and greeted him, "Good evening, Young Master. Should I serve your dinner?"

"Not yet…" As he said, Sheng Ruming turned to the maid and asked, "Which one is the master bedroom?"

The maid was startled and hurriedly looked up to him. She hesitated for a second and then said, "Young Master, Young Madam has said that her room will be on the second floor while yours will be on the first floor…"

"Are you serious?!" Sheng Ruming frowned and had difficulty understanding the situation. 

The maids were also confused when Luo Lixi said that. But then, they didn't ask why. It was normal for a couple to stay in one room but her behaviour didn't follow the rules. 

"Young Madam has said so." The maid replied honestly. Then, Sheng Ruming motioned her to go away and the maid left after bowing. 

Sheng Ruming's eyes went up to the second floor of the duplex apartment. He walked in large steps and went up to the stairs. The lighting of the second floor was dimmed. He glanced around and saw one of the rooms didn't have lights. 

He walked to that room and barged in without knocking. When he swept his gaze in there, he noticed that the attached balcony's door was open. 

The man stopped in his place and took off his shirt and suit because he was feeling stuffy. Then, with his pants being intact, he went to the balcony without making any noise. 

In the dim light of the open place, the woman was half laid lazily on a big couch. She was talking with someone and drinking something at the same time. 

"... Hmm. Don't worry. I am fine." Luo Lixi said as she took a sip from her glass. 

"Sigh! It's been a long time since I have talked with you. You don't like this old man anymore." Luo Qintian said in a hoarse voice. 

"How can you say that? Did I talk yesterday or you forgot?! Also, I like you the most! Don't say such things!" Luo Lixi chuckled as she took another sip. 

Sheng Ruming's eyes froze when he heard her but the next moment he expelled the bad feeling with his self made reason, 'She can like anybody but loves only me!'

"Maybe. Hahaha! Cough!... Xixi, Yichen is here too. Do you want to talk with him?" Luo Qintian said on the phone. 

"Hmm." 

After a while, Zhao Yichen took the phone and went straight to the point, "When will you come back? We should discuss the collaborative matter with your husband face to face." 

"In a few days." Luo Lixi replied, oblivious to the man who was staring at her from the door of the balcony. 

"Bye, then." Zhao Yichen murmured. 

"Bye, Yichen." Luo Lixi said and then put the phone away. Finally, she breathed a sigh of relief and concentrated on her drink. For the nth time, she took a sip from her champagne glass with a serene look. 

Sheng Ruming felt like a huge rock had just fallen on his head. His mind stopped working and became hostile as he felt disgusted, 'She likes Yichen?! That damn bodyguard?!'

The man went blue because of infuriation and unknown jealousy began to form in his head, 'So what if she likes him? She is mine now! Mine!'

While he was gnashing his teeth in despair, his eyes saw the thing in her hand clearly this time. Sheng Ruming's eyes enlarged as he rushed up to her and snatched the glass away from her hand, making her so scared that she was going to scream for help.
