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

But how could Luo Lixi let him continue when she still held grievance in her heart?

Thus, she aimed to kick his private part sneakily! Being attacked so suddenly, Sheng Ruming was embarrassed and caught her leg in shock. 

"What was that for?!" He asked her incredulously. 

"For being a jerk!" Luo Lixi bared her teeth and spat out at him as her other leg moved as well but the man caught it as well. Having her two legs seized by him, Luo Lixi wasn't happy at all!

Finally, Sheng Ruming recalled the idiot he had been after he had lost his memories! But at the same time, he thought in despair, 'It wasn't me at that time…' 

Unintentionally, his eyes fell on the ruby pendant on Luo Lixi's neck and his eyes paused. He tried to remember if the current him had given her one or not but he couldn't remember any scene. 

He became elated but outside he didn't show her. He freed her legs, stepped back and directly kneeled with a thud. 

"Wife! I was wrong! Punish me however you want!" Sheng Ruming shouted with deadpan eyes. Simultaneously, he began to take off his belt while not breaking eye contact.

"..." Luo Lixi was so scared and hurriedly went down and blocked his mouth.

"Shut up! There are people outside!" 

Sheng Ruming nodded obediently, in return kissed her hand and stuffed his belt in her hand. Luo Lixi took away her hand and wiped the saliva hurriedly on his shirt. He didn't mind her at all but felt a little bit hurt…

"Heh! Did you remember everything?" Luo Lixi tapped the belt on his shoulder and asked with an evil smirk. 

"..." Sheng Ruming's back stiffened as he slowly nodded his head.

It didn't need to be said that the man had regained his memories. Luo Lixi clutched the belt tightly and felt the barbaric 'her' urging to punish him!

"Wife, forgive me, please!..." Whining, Sheng Ruming noticed the glint in her eyes and encircled his arms around Luo Lixi's legs as he refused to see her directly. 

Luo Lixi was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do either. 

"You, stop…" As Luo Lixi said, she wanted to back away but at that moment, the door of the office room suddenly opened from outside. 

Luo Baiyun didn't know what to make of the situation when two pairs of eyes turned to him. Watching her daughter's legs being grabbed tightly by the kneeling man, his daughter having a belt in hand… he felt oddly funny as if he had unwittingly discovered a secret?

"Cough! Wrong time." Luo Baiyun said and then tightly shut the door. His cheeks became red as he hurried towards his office.

"Father in law seems to have seen everything… wife?" While murmuring, Sheng Ruming turned to Luo Lixi, only to see her face turning to the shade of a ripe tomato! 

…

After that day, Sheng Ruming had to persuade Luo Lixi to marry him every day but Luo Lixi was still angry at him and refused to give a definite answer. To her surprise, her family members knew about it and fully supported him? How pathetic! 

After 4 days.

In Ming City, Yan Resident. 

Sheng Ruming took Luo Lixi here. Both of them walked out of the car in formal dress. Luo Lixi silently glanced at the entrance sign and fell silent.

[Po Tiang × Yan Ruomin]

Sheng Ruming held a calm face as he gently hooked her hand and walked through the red carpet. Luo Lixi couldn't suppress her curiosity and whispered, "Isn't Mr Po Tiang…" 

"Yeah, you guessed right." Sheng Ruming showed her a doting smile and closed the distance. Those who were watching them could never guess what the couple was talking about. 

Luo Lixi was bewildered when she saw Yan Ruomin beside an old man. At first, she didn't believe it but finally, she had to. 

"Po Tiang's wife died many years ago and left a son. Afterwards, he married several times but they could not stay longer because of his bad temper. If she can endure, she may get lucky..." Sheng Ruming gently whispered as he stared at Luo Lixi's forehead. 

He felt distressed when he noticed a drop of sweat falling on her forehead. He touched her temple gently and murmured, "Are you hot?" 

"Wha, what?!" Luo Lixi was startled and frowned. 

"You are sweating. Look…" Sheng Ruming touched the sweat drop and showed her. Luo Lixi was so helpless by his antics that she looked away. 

"I'm not hot… it must be frost that has fallen on me and melted…" Luo Lixi murmured as she was trying to act normally. 

When Wei Airan saw them, she broke away from her group of friends and rushed towards them. 

"You are here? Why did you take so long? They have already taken marriage vows. The ritual is over." Wei Airan said pitifully. 

"It's fine, mother. As long as we can give them good regards directly…" Sheng Ruming said with a smirk as his eyes turned to the high stage. There, Yan Ruomin was seated beside the old man who was smiling with all his few remaining teeth. 

When he turned over, Yan Ruomin did as well. Both of their eyes met and an invisible confrontation, before even starting, ended. 

Yan Ruomin clenched the flower bouquet tightly and threw fire-like glares at Luo Lixi after she couldn't continue to look at Sheng Ruming. The man's eyes changed into coldness as he hid Luo Lixi with his body. 

Yan Ruomin clenched her teeth and nearly stood up from her seat. But her groom saw her movement and tightened his grip on her. 

"Don't make a scene or your father won't like it!" Po Tiang whispered with a huge grin and instantly she was disgusted. The man had something stuck between his teeth and he has a bad odour.

But a rebel like Yan Ruomin could care less even when she was in a passive position. She threw away the old man's hand and stood up. Grabbing the long wedding dress, Yan Ruomin stepped ahead to leave the stage when the old man angrily put his leg over her way as a sort of revenge. 

Thump! 

Yan Ruomin fell headfirst on the red carpet and made the guests exclaim loudly at her fall. Her mother who was missing from the wedding all this time finally came over and hurried toward the high stage. 

"Minmin, are you okay?!" Su Mengsi appeared and asked anxiously as she helped Yan Ruomin stand up. 

"You go away!" This time, Yan Ruomin found someone to vent her frustration and couldn't contain her anger and others pushed her mother without thinking twice. As a result the old woman fell directly. At that moment she felt like she had aged a lot.

Yan Luhan angrily walked up and helped Su Mengsi up. He looked at Yan Ruomin with venomous eyes and spat out, "Before collaborating with a criminal, why didn't your little brain think that the aftermath can cost beyond your limit?! Behave and happily leave this gate or you will never be allowed to come here!" 

After saying this, Yan Luhan dragged Su Mengsi away even though the old lady was reluctant to leave. In the end, even Su Mengsi realised that it was helpless to cry or throw a tantrum at his husband and saving her daughter was no longer an option. She could only pray that she would be sensible enough and not die before she dies herself...

…

Luo Lixi shook her head at the tension going on up ahead. Sheng Ruming snorted and looked at her. 

"Do you like the scene?" Sheng Ruming said thoughtlessly. 

"Why would I?" Luo Lixi asked back with confusion. 

'I thought you would be happy watching that degenerate suffer?' Sheng Ruming chuckled and then took her to the food section. But even before they could eat something, Luo Lixi felt nausea and couldn't eat anything. 

With a doting look, Sheng Ruming took her in her arms and bid his parents farewell. Wei Airan rubbed her fingers and intended to ask something but her group of friends stopped her. 

… 

While going back to the Sheng Villa by car, Sheng Ruming turned to Luo Lixi as he took out a ring box. Luo Lixi paused for a second and then moved her eyes away. He put the ring box between them.

"You escaped that day…" Before Sheng Ruming could finish, Luo Lixi turned back and glared at him. 

"Who escaped?! Repeat!" Luo Lixi folded her arms and demanded. 

"Cough! Wife, you can get angry all you want but shouldn't we finish the marriage first? The grand wedding?" Sheng Ruming didn't give her any chance to speak and put his hand on her belly and lovingly rubbed it, "Baby isn't obvious now but soon, everyone will know… do you want to let everyone see a shotgun marriage?"

"...." Luo Lixi shuddered when she imagined herself in her wedding dress with a big belly. 'I would cry if it happens…'
