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

Chapter 143 - 143 No, I Will Have Twins. Just You Wait!"



Sheng Ruming sighed when he heard it. His concern wasn't needed. He thought it was about his photos with Luo Lixi. Now he finally knew why Ethan Han was so pissed off.

"Also, some pictures of you and Xixi…"

Ethan's sudden line, his relaxed face tensed up again.

"I could have just said it was false if it happened. Also, there is you to handle the situation." Sheng Ruming paused as he murmured, "At least, nothing happened…"

"What 'nothing happened'?! How could someone else become my kid's father? Not even in their dreams! Also, they told me my Sarah's facial features were quite identical to yours. So, people would have definitely believed that you are her father…" Ethan Han threw the wine glass on the ocean in anger. The glass made a 'plop' sound and sank into the blue water. It wasn't enough to quench his anger.

In truth, both his and Sheng Ruming's face had some similarities. It's not so uncommon in China. But the infuriating thing was that when he had heard their plan, his veins exploded in anger. Only fathers with daughters would understand this feeling. 

'So he was bothered by this.' Sheng Ruming was quite surprised by Ethan Han's reaction. 

In his mind, it's not a big deal until Luo Lixi was involved.

"I don't care what people believe or think. I don't have the habit of claiming other people's kids as mine. You are her father, not me." Sheng Ruling's tone was full of disdain that made Ethan angrier. He had the urge to travel through the phone and the man.

"Of course I am. How can such a beautiful daughter be yours?! Tsk!" He taunted Sheng Ruming and it really worked. 

"Do you want to eat my punches?!" Sheng Ruming stopped his hands by which he was giving the sleeping woman gentle strokes on her head. The man's voice sounded grave when he asked.

The man, who was so engrossed in the call that he didn't notice, due to his talking, even though he tried to speak in a low voice, Luo Lixi's sleep had broken. But she didn't open her eyes, she remained motionless. 'With whom he is talking in the middle of the night!'

"Heh! It's a matter to see later who will eat whose punches. You don't even have a child yet, no you are not even married. You called Xixi your fiancée yet my source says otherwise." Ethan spilled out the thoughts of his mind. He felt peace that at least there was a person who didn't have any ulterior motive when talking with him, moreover, he could converse with the opposite party without holding back.

Sheng Ruming wasn't surprised that Ethan Han knew. If it was the other way, then he would have doubted the capability of the man. 

"You… One day, I will also have a daughter. More beautiful than yours! No, I will have twins. Just you wait!" Sheng Ruming spat through gritted teeth when he told him. 

Luo Lixi's heart skipped a beat as the words went into her ears. It made her blush without any reason.

"Heh! Look who's talking. First, have a daughter then come to flex!" Ethan Han directly shouted through the line. At that, Sheng Ruming was speechless. 

At first, Sheng Ruming only wanted to talk about the matter regarding that Tan man, now the conversation went to another track, which was totally unrelated to the main topic.

Then, he remembered the conditions Luo Lixi had given him. The woman didn't have any plan to marry him soon. 'At this pace, It would be a century before I could marry her, let alone having a daughter.' He stared at Luo Lixi's face and thought in remorse, 'Why make me suffer?!'

But it was a pity, the woman couldn't hear him. If she had, she would've pinched him to death.

It was always a heavenly feeling to win an argument against your buddies. Now, Ethan Han's mood also had improved because of this reason.

"Ethan, release them. Also, make sure they won't have the pictures. I will deal with… meatbag later, you can deal with the other man." Sheng Ruming answered in a grave tone. 

"Hmm. I will surely release them but… in the most embarrassing way." 

"..."

This was not a matter concerning Sheng Ruming. Now that he had achieved his motive, he cut the line afterwards, without saying goodbye.

"Such a jerk!" Ethan Han muttered in a low voice. Then he went to the little table and picked his phone. Afterwards, he walked towards the room.

After he had entered and went to stand beside his bed, he saw both of them were asleep. Then, he checked his daughter's face. For some reason, it looked more pleasing to his eyes now.

'Only the eye colour is different, other features all look like mine. My child…'

After thinking till here, Ethan Han turned off the light. He put off his sandals and went under the blanket to join them in the bed to sleep even though his eyes didn't have sleepiness.

Thus, Ethan stared outside while two even sounds of breathing were lingering in the room. The sound of the night ocean and the smell of the seawater, made him reminisce about his past.

From outside, the moonlight infiltrated the room and made everything visible. The surface of the ocean looks like a sheet of liquid silver to the other people on the yacht.The stars that twinkle around the moon add to its beauty. The clouds are tinged white by the silvery light of the moon.

Everything was heavenly…

*** ***

Sheng Ruming put down the phone on the low table beside the bed. Then, he placed a hand behind his head and stared above for a long time.

Afterwards, he glanced around the room and his sight fell on to the little bouquet of the roses. Those weren't as beautiful as before. He took out one and then shot Luo Lixi a smirk.

Afterwards, he plucked the petals one by one and dropped them on her face. Even though Luo Lixi was quiet, her eyelashes flickered when petals fell down after it brushed past her skin.

"Why are you pretending to be asleep?" At his sudden remark, Luo Lixi stiffened. 'He knew.' 

When she opened her eyes and turned her head to look up, she saw the man staring directly at her and dropped a red petal on her lips. He didn't let it fall, rather he threw the flower aside and pressed the petal on her lips and stared at her eyes.

"..."

Luo Lixi wanted to speak but his forefinger was on her lips, making it difficult for her. If she opened her mouth, his finger would directly enter her mouth with the petal.

"It is a bad habit to eavesdrop. Girl, you say, how should I punish you? Which punishment would you like to receive?!" By his left hand, he picked a new flower. Sheng Ruming played with the flower by its stem and softly knocked it on her cheek.

Luo Lixi raised her hand and tried to remove his finger but it didn't budge. When she eyed him, he smirked in victory. 

The next second, she moved and backed away, so Sheng Ruming finger landed on his thigh with the crushed red petal. His sight was locked onto the red thing.

Luo Lixi began to roll on the bed until she reached till she went past his knees. Then, the woman raised her eyes as her head was supported by her right hand; the elbow was placed on the bed.

"There was no need to eavesdrop. You were talking loud enough to hear from a large distance. Also, I am not a girl, call me lady."

Sheng Ruming didn't move his sight from his thigh, not even when she was speaking. Luo Lixi knitted her temple when he turned at her, expressionless.

"You have heard the whole conversation."

"Just from the last, I guess." Luo Lixi saw his face was hardening. So she immediately spoke out. "I didn't have the intention to hear. If you think it is inappropriate, then from next time, talk somewhere else, don't let me hear…"

Sheng Ruming retracted his finger from his thigh and then motioned her by it, "Come here."

Luo Lixi blinked her eyes. She saw his gaze move from her face to her chest. Thus, she looked down and became speechless.

Currently, the front two buttons of her silk nightgown were open. There wasn't any underwear beneath it. Also, the nightgown was crooked and was hanging down, showing most of her exposed skin.

"Cough!" Sheng Ruming turned away even though there wasn't a need for it. He didn't want to take a cold shower in the middle of the night. 

As for Luo Lixi, she sat up and sorted out her nightgown and pulled it upwards. But the two buttons were left untouched. 

"Ruming, it's okay now. You can look at me." She guessed correctly why he turned away earlier. Thus, she told him when she was in an appropriate shape.

"I said come here." Sheng Ruming turned at her and told her directly. 

Luo Lixi went forward without any hesitation. When Sheng Ruming patted his thigh, she directly sat on his two thighs as she hooked her hands around his neck.

Sheng Ruming wrapped one arm around her waist. Then,he picked a rose from the bouquet and gave it to her.

"For you…"

"It is mine from the first place." Even though she said it, her lips couldn't help stretching into a vague smile. She locked the object in her sight, gazing at the fiery red colour without blinking.

"You heard what I said on the phone, didn't you? I want twins. Let's practice from today for this goal." Sheng Ruming whispered beside her ear, making the tiny hairs of her arms stand up on their edges.

After a few seconds, she slowly turned towards him as her smile became brighter and brighter by every second. 

Sheng Ruming was pleased as he thought she was willing yet…

"Nope." Luo Lixi replied with a bright smile.

"..."

What to do?! His heart hurts...
