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

Chapter 165 - 165 Zhao Yichen.



"Huh! Even though your brother tried to cover it, we know it all. Don't try to deny…" Luo Minwei sneered and continued to say when her hand was tugged from behind.

"What did Lixiang tried to cover?! Tell me." Luo Lixi clenched her hands. From the side, Xiao Huang looked at Sheng Ruming and asked permission silently to handle the situation but he signaled him not to.

"Weiwei, stop talking. We are getting late." A middle aged woman told her from the side. She stared at Luo Lixi uneasily.

"Ma, this bitch is really…"

"Look out what you are saying." Sheng Ruming went beside Luo Lixi and warned her. At that, Luo Minwei became flustered. 

"let's go!" Luo Minwei's mother glanced at the people who were standing behind Luo Lixi.

All of them were glaring at Luo Minwei as if she said something more, they wouldn't stay still.

"But Ma…" Luo Minwei was dragged by her mother and soon they went to a different area. 

"Why did you drag me away?! I should have scolded her more. Before I used to think she was the ideal lady we should follow. But she…" Luo Minwei scoffed as she talked.

"Behave. Didn't you notice the men who were staying behind her. They are highly skilled bodyguards." Her mother knitted her brows.

"How do you know? Wait. It's not important. Let me post that she has come to the city…" She wanted to take out her phone to post something but her mother snatched her purse.

"Ma!"

"Don't you dare implicate our family. Didn't I tell you earlier not to believe in baseless rumours?! You also acted so silly there!"

Luo Minwei pursed her lips as she felt irritated. 'I should have scolded that woman more. What elegant lady, what Luo family's princess?! Pretentious bitch!'

Her mother looked at from the side and was indifferent.

Luo Lixi felt lost suddenly. Just now she had arrived and someone immediately threw a bunch of nonsense at her.

Sheng Ruming walked behind her and whispered, "People don't know that you went missing. I guess some rumours must have started amid your close relatives…"

She thought deeply. "Yes, after all I was missing for many months. Also, some of my relatives in our company." 

Luo Lixi looked up where the women just went ahead. "I need to know the situation in my home first before I go there."

"Let's take it slowly." Sheng Ruming gazed at her eyes deeply. She slightly nodded her head.

Several hours later.

A man in black suit slowly made its way towards a luxurious business suite. When he finally arrived before the room, he was greeted by a person.

"Are you Zhao Yichen." Xiao Huang asked. Both of their getups were the same, total black.

"Yes." The man nodded.

"Then enter." Xiao Huang opened the door. Zhao Yichen nodded and entered. His eyes searched the lady who had called him today.

"Miss Luo…" Zhao Yichen went to the other room and finally saw Luo Lixi. When he uttered her name, his voice shook a little.

"Long time no see, Yichen. Come here." Luo Lixi was seated on a sofa, beside her was Sheng Ruming. 

When Zhao Yichen saw the man, his eyes narrowed slightly. He slowly walked towards them and stood before Luo Lixi. His head hung low.

"Miss Luo, I am sorry. I failed in my duty, i failed to protect you, I..." Luo Lixi looked at the man who was talking in embarrassment. His face was coated in guilt.

"Its not your fault. It was me who had decided to leave the Luo Mansion without notifying anyone." Her tone sounded very sarcastic."I went to get some fun yet nearly turned into a dead body." 

Sheng Ruming patted her hand gently. Zhao Yichen looked at his Miss who had never let any outsider get any physical contact with her.

"Yichen, tell me everything that happened in the past few months when I was missing." 

Her voice was cold and it had a sharp edge. Luo Lixi was staring at the man who used to be her bodyguard, intensely.

"Miss Luo, it's really fortunate that you are alright. But…" Zhao Yichen turned towards Sheng Ruming and blatantly said, "I can't disclose anything related to the Luo family's affairs before an outsider."

"Moreover, you should return with me to Luo Mansion." Zhao Yichen stared at Sheng Ruming. His eyes were full of wary and doubt.

Sheng Ruming raised an eye. He smirked and slowly put an arm around Luo Lixi's waist. 

Zhao Yichen saw she didn't even have any reaction on her face. 'Who is this man' as if to answer him, Luo Lixi told him.

"He's not an outsider. His family name is Sheng. You should tell me now." Luo Lixi anxiously asked, "Grandfather, he…"

"Miss, I am sorry. But in my agreement with your grandfather, it was clearly stated that I can never disclose such sensitive information before an outsider, even if you say he is your relative, I can't." 

"You…" Luo Lixi was speechless at Zhao Yichen.

"Suspicious people are guarding outside while this man is here with you, What is the guarantee you are not his hostage?" 

Luo Lixi felt like clapping her hands when she heard him saying that with a grave expression.

"He's my friend…" 

"Whom I didn't meet since the time I became your bodyguard, for like 5 years." Zhao Yichen dangerously looked at Sheng Ruming as his hand slowly made its way behind his body. 

Luo Lixi narrowed her eyes and abruptly stood up. "What do you want to do?! Don't you dare…"

"How can I trust him! Where were you in the past months?" Zhao Yichen suddenly pulled out a gun and pointed at Sheng Ruming's forehead.

Luo Lixi rounded her eyes and screamed, "How dare you?!" 

At her shout, other men from outside came in the room. When they saw this scene, they also pulled out several guns from God knows where!
