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

The next morning, Sun Xumei woke up before everyone. As soon as she opened her eyes, she was greeted by a cute little butt right in front of her eyes. 

"Ah… how did she come up to the pillow?" The lady murmured and then grabbed the little legs of Luo Lixi. 

Luo Lixi, who was sleeping soundly till now, felt someone dragging her down and screamed in her mind as she failed to open her eyes for some unknown reason, 'Help! Octopus is going to eat me! Someone, help!' 

Luo Baiyun was always a light sleeper. When the woman beside him moved, he had already woken up from his sleep. Upon looking at the little one who was being dragged down and her little face creasing into a frown, he hurriedly sat up and picked Luo Lixi. 

"Xumei, don't do that again. It's bad for her legs." Luo Baiyun whispered as he placed Luo Lixi's sleeping figure on his lap and then rubbed the non-existent wounds. 

Sun Xumei sat up instantly and thought that she had hurt Luo Lixi without knowing. She leaned towards him and asked, "Is she hurt... badly? Sorry, I didn't give much thought when I did that." 

"Don't say sorry to me. You are her mother. Just be careful next time." Luo Baiyun whispered as he lifted Luo Lixi's pyjamas a little and checked if there was really any red marks. 

"... I will." Sun Xumei nodded as she smiled because of his words. Looking at the flushed face so close to him, Luo Baiyun leaned towards her too. 

It was clear what the man intended to do. Luo Lixi could no longer pretend to be asleep and acted out instantly to save her innocent eyes from being contaminated by her parents' spicy love. 

"Yawn~ Mama~" Little Luo Lixi straightened her body as she slowly opened her misty eyes and glanced at the two adults in 'confusion'. 

"Xixi is awake?" Sun Xumei asked with a doting smile as she pushed the man away and picked up her daughter's little head. Like a good girl, Luo Lixi moved her little butt and hugged her mother sideways. 

Suddenly getting ignored by the two, Luo Baiyun felt stifled. But when he saw the little thing cuddling with her mother, he felt very jealous. 

"Xixi, didn't you see me? Come to me and give me a hug." The man again went forward to snatch the baby but Sun Xumei would never tolerate it. She stood up with a humph and then went out while Luo Lixi closely followed her.

Before leaving, she threw a painful look to her father that instantly broke his fatherly heart which always wanted his daughter's love and attention. In fact, he couldn't understand what it actually was.

"You are too huge. My eyes can't see you." Luo Lixi said in her cute voice yet the words pierced Luo Baiyun's heart into several areas. 

"…" Luo Baiyun's stoic face became dark. After the duo left, he went before the mirror and thought with a frown, 'Am I really that huge?!'

...

Later.

After Luo Baiyun had his breakfast, he stood up to leave for the company. Sun Xumei saw Luo Baiyun leaving without taking Luo Lixi with him, and her dark eyes narrowed into slits. 

"Husband, did you forget something, hmm?" Sun Xumei called out sweetly but the man knew the underlying threat. Luo Baiyun froze as he turned around and made a confused face as if he didn't understand what she meant. 

"Did you have any intention to bring Xixi to the main mansion? Huh? Or, you were just lying?!" Sun Xumei stared at him fiercely. If the man dared to say 'no', then she was prepared to show what she was capable of!

Little Luo Lixi, who was on the dining table, paused stuffing food in her little mouth. She turned towards her father and remembered, 'I am supposed to go meet grandfather… Grandma… I don't have any impression of her. She must have…'

As she thought, her eyes dimmed and the hand grabbing the little pink spoon fell on the bowl with a thud. 

When Sun Xumei turned to her, Luo Lixi hurriedly adjusted her expression. With a bright smile, she slipped down on the chair from the table, then to the ground. 

Afterwards, Luo Lixi ran to her father and cutely grabbed his little pinky as she chirped, "I am ready~ Let's go~"

Looking at the eager face of her little baby, Sun Xumei's heart felt another wave of sadness. She couldn't help herself from shedding a drop of tear as she thought in self-guilt, 'Come to think of it, I didn't bring her out to play before. She must be excited to see the outside world. Such a pathetic person I am…'

Then, her eyes fell to the big culprit and then to the small culprit in her belly. A big sigh left her lips as she turned to stare at Little Luo Lixi. Her mind made plans to compensate her daughter right after she became free. 

Luo Baiyun didn't move as he glanced at Sun Xumei. Then, he awkwardly said, "Tonight, we have a dinner appointment in the Luo Mansion. I will bring her then."

"… Alright!" Sun Xumei nodded with a displeased expression and thought angrily, 'You should have told me before. I wouldn't have woken up so early then…'

After saying that, Luo Baiyun gently ungripped Luo Lixi's fingers and then left. She didn't think much and then went towards the stairs to go to her room. 

Sun Xumei glanced at the little bowl which was barely finished and then glanced at the baby room upstairs. Her heart clenched in pain again as several thoughts formed in her head. 'Did she become sad? She must be. Xixi was so energetic when she ran to Baiyun yet he…'

Unbeknownst to her, Luo Lixi was busy opening her father's book which concentrated on explaining finance in different ways. Also, she was afraid she would fail to control her eating and thus ran up to read books. 

After Luo Baiyun knew Luo Lixi liked those things, without batting his eyes, he gave her those. To him, it was good if his daughter liked them and played with them. It was even fine if she destroyed those. 

After a while.

Knock~ Knock~

"Who?" Luo Lixi asked while her eyes were glued to the book, refusing to budge. 

"Little Miss, your mother has told me to bring you down. She will go outside of the villa with you to play." A maid said in a very excited voice. 

Luo Lixi's eyes quivered as she looked up. With a thump, she closed the book and went to open the locked door. Looking at the running figure on the corridor, Sun Xumei chuckled and spoke out hurriedly, "Be careful. If you fall, I won't bring you outside."

Hearing her, Luo Lixi braked on her sprint and then slowly walked down. The maid couldn't bear to walk so slowly and thus, picked her up directly and brought her down. 

"Let's go~" Luo Lixi said as she glanced outside. Sun Xumei nodded as she put on a thick coat to hide her belly and then walked out from the villa. But before she could step out, the butler rushed forward and blocked her path. 

"Madam, you can't. The roads are still slippery. What if… I suggest you don't go at this time…"

"Don't worry. I will be careful." Sun Xumei said as she understood his concern. Thus, she took three servants with her when she left the boundary of the villa. 

Two to help her, one to take care of Little Luo Lixi. A maid held Luo Lixi and walked ahead while Sun Xumei and other two servants followed. 

As they walked on the road, Luo Lixi noticed several other big villas in the vicinity. To her, it seemed not many changes had happened to this place even in the future. 

"Do you like it here?" Sun Xumei asked as she glanced at Luo Lixi. 

"Like~" Luo Lixi nodded as looked around. 

"Then, we will come out often." 

"Ok~"

After walking for a few minutes, Luo Lixi noticed the familiar forest at one side. She couldn't help but want to rush into it and see if it was the same in the past. 

But suddenly she stopped looking ahead and turned around. Her eyes fell on the big belly of her mother. After thinking for a while, she glanced at Sun Xumei and called out, "Ma~"

"Hmm?" Sun Xumei turned her eyes towards her.

"You go back. I will go there with big sister~" She pointed at the forest in front of her and said excitedly. 

Sun Xumei fell silent for a few seconds. Then, she smiled broadly and asked with a doting smile, "Baby, do you want to get Ma's loving spanks?"

"I, I, no…" While speaking, Luo Lixi instinctively covered her butt with her palms. Her reputation as a lady was at stake here! Never had she known, her mother loved to spank her!
