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

After being dragged to the ancestral hall of the Luo family, Luo Lixiang was forced to kneel on the hard floor. Luo Baiyun walked behind him and looked down on him coldly.

"Before doing something shameful, do you at least know what the consequences will be?!" The old man forced his head to look down. 

"What?!" Luo Lixiang, whose head was spinning nonstop, tried to look up but Luo Baiyun prevented him from doing so.

"How can you mingle with a prostitute? Are you out of your mind?!" Luo Baiyun couldn't control his anger and slapped the back of Luo Lixiang's head. 

The cold words penetrated Luo Lixiang's ears like sharp arrows. After realising that it was none other than his father or grandfather who had kidnapped him and brought him here, Luo Lixiang became very calm. 

He kneeled motionless on the ground despite being in a drunkard state and awaited his father's lashing.

"I… I just slept with a useless thing. I can disregard her anytime. Didn't I leave the Luo Corporation? Why do you have to react like that with my life even now?!"

Luo Lixiang tilted his head and stared at his father. The other person's whole face turned pale as he slapped Luo Lixiang again. 

"What now?!" Luo Lixiang got fired up when he was slapped for the third time on his head.

Luo Baiyun spat out with a deep breath, "There is a thing called STD! You useless shit!"

'I didn't do her real back then…' Luo Lixiang closed his eyes shut as his cheek burnt with pain. But even then, he didn't clarify the misunderstanding nor was he interested in whether his father had heard it.

He slowly opened his bottomless eyes and touched the corner of his lips. As expected, he saw blood. The taste of blood made him come back to sense.

With the help of his hands, he stood up and looked eye to eye with Luo Baiyun. It was considered a great disrespect to elders and his father would get pissed off whenever he would do that. 

And, so Luo Baiyun became furious again. While keeping a smile with suppressed anger, Luo Lixiang said, "You have told me to leave the company, I did. But going to another branch and working as a middle-class person… it's not my cup of tea."

Silence. The guards outside of the ancestral hall glanced at each other and frowned at how Luo Lixiang's tone became disrespectful. 

"If you find me a nuisance, just tell me directly. It's my life, I will do whatever I want!"

At Luo Lixiang's words, Luo Baiyun's eyes cooled down. He found those words oddly similar and remembered that those were the similar words he had once told his father in the past. 

'How infuriating!' Only now he realised how angry his father was back then. 

Right after saying that, Luo Lixiang turned around to leave the room. But before he could step out of the ancestral hall's entrance, he was blocked by two guards. 

At the same time, the cold laugh of his father came from behind.

Luo Baiyun stiffly turned around and saw his father who was smiling. At that time, he found that face resembled Luo Lixi a lot. His hands clenched tightly as he waited for the old man to scold further.

"Xiao Xiang, my child, before leaving so haughtily, you should remember on whose money you are living! Whose family name you are using! You have become an adult and think that you can do whatever you want? Life isn't so easy!..." While saying this, Luo Baiyun was moving towards Luo Lixiang. 

He took out a little notebook from his pocket. With a cold smile, he pushed it towards Luo Lixiang.

With visible confusion, Luo Lixiang opened the notebook. He saw many old and new scribbles on it, his eyes narrowed in disbelief at the contents on it.

"The amount I have used to bring you up until you are standing in front of me like a useless piece of garbage… You can't even imagine! You want to do whatever you like? Fine! But before doing that you should pay me back. Then I will never interfere with your life!" 

Luo Baiyun bypassed Luo Lixiang and walked towards the entrance. The bodyguards also moved away from the path and bowed to him. 

Luo Lixiang, who was seeing stars just reading the astronomical amount on the notepad, could no longer stay calm!

He turned towards Luo Baiyun and stomped on the ground. He pointed at Luo Baiyun's back and stuttered, "H… How can you be so cru… cruel! This amount is ridiculous! 100 million?! Why do you have to do this with me?! Why me? Just kill me directly!"

Luo Baiyun paused on his steps and then glanced sideways. 

"You are the one who doesn't listen to your elders. It's fine if you can do anything but that doesn't mean that I will let my family's reputation crumble in dust. If I don't discipline you, who else? Xixi?"

"Father…" Luo Lixiang lost his words upon hearing him. When he rummaged through his memories, he didn't remember a single moment when Luo Lixi became unruly or went against the family. 

But at the same time, he remembered that all the family members loved her a lot which he never felt from them.

"Also, don't you dare step in my home if you continue to do whatever you like. I am giving you 1 year to pay the amount or get ready to work in the branch office and marry the lady I have chosen for you." 

Luo Baiyun said while adjusting his suit and left the ancestral hall with large strides. He had immense disappointment for this child of his. Clenching his hand tightly, Luo Lixiang nearly crumbled the notepad.

'I never told you to hire all those expensive teachers. For me, those were the same as those useless books!' Luo Lixiang thought in anger as he threw the notepad on the ground. 

At the same time, he took in a large breath and turned towards the memorial of his ancestors. He had the urge to spit on them. Subconsciously, his eyes moved towards the CCTV cameras in the corners.

Luo Lixiang cussed in his mind and then picked up the notepad with reluctance. Afterwards, he stormed out of the room and wanted to leave the Luo Mansion. 

At that moment Bi Tang went behind Luo Lixiang and murmured with hesitation, "Young Master, your father has told you not to use the family's cars or anything. If you want to leave, you should walk out by yourself."

Luo Lixiang, who was still in his drunkard state, shouted in anger like a beast, "Fuck off!"

Bi Tang scratched his cheek and then retreated. While retreating, he spoke out, "I can lend you my car but it's not as fancy as these."

"No need!" Luo Lixiang growled and then stormed out of the gate of the Luo Mansion. At the same time, his brain burned in anger and the thought of repaying the money and making his family regret for ignoring him filled his mind. 

After exiting the Luo Mansion, Luo Lixiang walked for a long time. Then a black car drove towards him and stopped right in front of him. Luo Lixiang nearly crashed into the car and luckily stabilized himself in time. 

"Don't you have eyes?! You fucking blind!..." Luo Lixiang scolded and glared towards the driver's seat who made such a sudden stunt in front of him, that would cause his life. 

The driver pulled down the glass of the car, his words stuck to his throat. 

"Shall we grab a glass of drink together?"Kong Pipi smiled seductively towards Luo Lixiang. 

At the same time, she pointed towards the empty passenger seat beside her with her black eyes. Luo Lixiang didn't say anything and quietly followed her eyes and then got into the car. Then the car silently drove away from the vicinity of the Luo Mansion.

Bi Tang, who was keeping tabs on Luo Lixiang's whereabouts, looked towards the car and noted down the car number. Then he called Luo Baiyun and said, "Miss Kong just came and took away the young master."

"Hmm." Luo Baiyun murmured and then disconnected the call. Afterwards, he looked towards Luo Qintian who was reading a book and repeated Bi Tang's words. 

Luo Qintian halted for a second as he lifted his head. Slowly he closed the book and then murmured, "I knew that family isn't up to no good. That old girl in that family isn't any better." 

"This…" Luo Baiyun was conflicted because Kong Pipi was the first choice of his to get engaged with Luo Lixiang. 

"Luo Baiyun, investigate and see what they are up to." Luo Qintian said.

"Yes, father." Luo Baiyun took a book from the bookshelf and then turned around to leave.

As Luo Qintian saw him leaving, he put down his book and whispered, "Xiao Xiang is after all our family child, even if he is useless we can support him. Don't be so hard when you deal with him."

"Father, it's necessary to let him see the reality." Luo Baiyun left the room. As soon as he left, he was reminded of Luo Lixi. 

'Come to think of it, she is also running amok in another city. These two brats.... what will I do with them?!' Luo Baiyun gave a helpless smile as he turned towards his bedroom.
