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

Chapter 203 - 203 Going To School.



"Oh…" Luo Lixi finally closed the last file and stood up. Then, she took her purse and left the room. When she started to walk through the corridor, she paused in her steps and looked back.

"Why are so many people following me?! There is no need for five people to tag along." She pointed at the man she had seen many times with Zhao Yichen and thought he was the best candidate, "Just you. Follow me."

The men exchanged glances and the one who was pointed at, said, "Miss, we can't do this. Chief Zhao has instructed us to follow you wherever you go."

"Where is Yichen?"

"Your grandfather has told him to go to the Luo Mansion." 

"Oh." Even though she understood, she glanced at them and said, "I am going somewhere else. You four, return to the mansion. And you, come with me if you want." Her voice was strict just like her grandfather, whenever the old men tried to intimidate someone.

The other four hesitated to follow her but in the end, they stepped back. So, Luo Lixi was followed by one man and soon she left the company.

"Where do you want to go, miss?"

"... To the Long City High School."

… …

After ten minutes, the car abruptly braked. Luo Lixi was pondering something while closing her eyes. At the sudden force, she tilted forwards and nearly fell but thanks to the seat belt she didn't fall from the seat.

"What's wrong?" She asked from behind.

"Miss, look ahead." As the bodyguard asked her, she shifted her sight and saw a massive traffic jam. 

'Ah, I nearly forgot that it's busy hour now.' Luo Lixi leaned backwards and closed her eyes in depression. From the front, the bodyguard again said, "The traffic jam is becoming too huge. If we don't retreat now, it will be impossible to go back. How about I take about short cut?"

Luo Lixi opened her eyes and asked, "Short cut? I don't think there is any shortcut around this area."

The bodyguard had already started to reverse the car and turned it around, "Miss, it's a new road. So of course you don't know. Just that it will take twenty minutes more."

Luo Lixi pressed her lips and muttered, "It will take more time so it's not a shortcut, rather another long-distance road. There are plenty of them…"

"..."

Thus, the car made a 180° turnover and drove towards a side road. It was a new place for Luo Lixi. She didn't see this before. While she was emerged in looking at the outside scenery, the place was becoming more and more deserted. 

"This place, why is it so…?"

The bodyguard kept looking ahead while speaking, "The residents of this area have left some months ago. I think it will turn into a market."

Luo Lixi frowned as she glanced around. 'This place is not suitable for it. Which company has decided to do so? Don't they fear that they will cause a huge loss? There is already a huge shopping district on the opposite side of it?...'

She was pulled out from her thought when the car suddenly stopped. 

"What's now?" Luo Lixi folded her arms before her chest and asked. The bodyguard tried to drive the car but failed. When his eyes fell on the car's data state as if a huge light bulb had been turned on on top of his head.

"Umm, miss, the car has run out of oil. But there is stored oil in the trunk I think."

"Go then." 

So, the man hurriedly left the car and went to get oil. When he opened the truck's hood, he found there was nothing, the place was empty. 

"Chief has told us all the cars have all necessary things in their trunk. So, why is it empty?!" The man muttered and walked ahead. He knocked against the car window. 

So, Luo Lixi opened it ahead and gazed at him in confusion. 

"Miss, there is nothing."

"So?"

"I think I will have to go behind to bring oil or if you say, I will call the other people to bring a car for you."

She turned her head and sighed deeply. "Do the two things. Call them to come over and go to bring oil as well." 

"Alright. Please don't get down from the car under any circumstances."

"Alright." 

So, she was left behind in the car and the bodyguard called someone to come over and then he started to walk towards the way they had just come from.

"... It will be late. Sigh!" She straightened her waist and looked ahead. The weather was becoming more and more hot day by day. 

She opened a few buttons of her shirt till the chest area. Her hand fanned her face while she glanced around. 

'It's too hot. Let me turn the AC…' So she ended up closing all the windows and turning on the AC. 

Soon, her nerves relaxed and she ended up closing her eyes and entering a slumber. The unguarded lady didn't even notice that there was a strange smell in the car...

… …

Sheng Ruming stopped his car before the entrance of the Luo Corporation. This time, nobody stopped him. The man wasn't even trying to hide his presence as he was exuding the 'rich and overly handsome'.

He walked to the exclusive elevator that only the important people can use. 

"Sir, please show me the exclusive card of the company or you can't use this lift." The elevator girl said to him politely. 

"Well, I don't have any card you are asking for."

"Umm, then, you can't use this. You will have to use the public one."

"Public one?" As Sheng Ruming asked, the woman pointed towards the other end. When he glanced back, his eyelids twisted.

Many people are lining up to use that elevator even though there is more than one. It was crowded and stuffy for many people. He got a shiver just from thinking
