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

Chapter 224 - 224 Slapping Lixi's Butt!



So, in the end, all of them went to the rooms they were shown. As soon as Wei Airan entered her room, she stopped in her place. The silhouette of Ji Yanli sleeping like a log on the soft bed made her chuckle. Not bothering with her, she went inside and went to the balcony.

Her lungs took big breaths as she glanced around the area. As her sight fell down, she saw some people were busy going somewhere.

'They are going to the southern area, I guess…' Wei Airan sat on the bamboo chair and took the magazines the little table had.

As she saw the content on the first page, her eyes fell on the beautiful lady in the office suit. "The new CEO of the Luo Corporation? Replacing her newly appointed brother and becoming the new queen of the Luo Empire…" 

Wei Airan finished reading the few catchy lines and muttered under her breath. 

"Not bad." The woman muttered as she went to turn the page but then her hand stopped. She raised the page before her eyes and glared at the chain Luo Lixi had around her neck.

"Am I mistaking something?" She stared at the red ruby that was shining under the sunlight and the simple design of the chain, "This piece of jewelry… didn't my Ruming also have one like that too?!"

The woman thought hard but then put down the magazine. She leaned against the seat and chuckled, "Now that I am worried about his marriage, even a simple thing like similar things can give me weird thoughts."

Then she glanced in the room. In the next second, Wei Airan went beside Ji Yanli. She examined the young lady who was lying on her stomach.

She remembered the familiar lines from somewhere.

{People tend to respond honestly in their sleep.}

Thus, she went down and whispered beside the sleeping Ji Yanli, "Yanli, will you become my daughter-in-law?"

Ji Yanli frowned her forehead and just a single noise came out, "Hmm."

Wei Airan immediately became happy and turned around to leave the room at once. When the room door closed however some other lines also left her lips, "The wine is tasty. You should drink more~" 

She slapped on the bed and turned around to hug the pillow beside her, sinking in the dream (whatever) of hers.

… …

Around 5 pm of the day…

Luo Lixi drove to the destination Sheng Ruming had given her. As soon as she reached, her face showed obvious confusion. 

"This place…"

Zhao Yichen turned to her and replied, "A new hot spring resort."

Luo Lixi took her purse and got down. Even though it was the time after dusk, the area appeared desolate, too empty. It seemed as if there wasn't any sign of life around the radius of a hundred miles except the bamboo bush.

But then suddenly many lights lit up one after another. It became lively bright from haunting-creepy darkness.

"Ah!" Luo Lixi hid her eyes from the overwhelming brightness.

"Lixi~" Abruptly, a big hug engulfed her from behind. Luo Lixi flinched in fright. Her heart went from Luv-duv to Doki-Doki in an instant.

"Ruming, you nearly killed me!" Luo Lixi stared at his side profile and muttered angrily. In return, he placed a quick kiss on her cheek and apologized.

"Sorry, babe. I am wrong~"

Luo Lixi couldn't believe he would act like a spoiled child before her. Then Sheng Ruming lifted his head and some words flew out that sounded very rude and cold, "I asked Bi Tang to bring her. Why did you come?!"

"He's busy that's why…" 

Sheng Ruming didn't give the man any chance to speak and interrupted, "Then, go back now. You aren't needed here anymore. The rest I will see." Zhao Yichen saw she was silent.

He turned around to leave but then more words came up to him, "If the old man wants to know her situation, tell him to call me or her directly."

Zhao Yichen didn't remain there and left as soon as possible. He drove the car at the highest speed as if he was trying to flee from someone.

Only after he was gone, did Luo Lixi turn to Sheng Ruming. Her delicate right hand slapped on his arms that were wrapped around her belly.

"That was very rude of you. He left his work in the company to drive me here…Uh, forget it!" 

Luo Lixi hurriedly moved away from her eyes from his face which turned murderous in an instant. Sheng Ruming tightened his grip further and whispered, it looked as if his lips were nearly glued to her ear. 

"Do you really not know or pretend to be unaware about that man's feelings towards you?! Huh! You even dared to say I am rude?! Should I behave politely to the man who covets you?!"

Luo Lixi turned her face abruptly and glared at him, "Are you out of your mind? What feelings, what coveting?! You are being delusional… ah!"

Sheng Ruming took hold of her waist and picked her up from the ground. Then he dropped her on his right shoulder. It looked like the way a man would carry a bag of rice on his shoulder.

"Ruming, Ruming, Ruming!!! Put me down. Please, please!!! It's very embarrassing, ahhh!" Luo Lixi thrashed her limbs around. 

But the man just turned around and began to walk towards the resort. One of her legs even knocked against his stomach. 

"Ruming, I am telling you! Put me down or else…" The man felt like he shouldn't put her down. His reason got even stronger. 

At one point, she wriggles so much that he nearly dropped her. He felt like his heart stopped beating in that instant.

"Ruming, I am telling…"

Pa~

A loud slap fell on her butt. Luo Lixi was so petrified and shocked that she stopped talking.

"If you move anymore, I will rather slap you on your butt than putting you down!"

Luo Lixi turned her eyes above his head and asked in disbelief, "Yo.. you! You! slapped me?! Ruming… how can you?!"

"Was it too hard? Sorry, you must have been hurt…"

"That's not the point. You…" Her words got stuck in her throats as she felt a warm touch on her below.

Sheng Ruming rubbed on that place and rubbed her gently. At that her whole body flinched. She couldn't help but look up ahead and saw several men in bodyguard attire standing in a row.

The lady teared up in that instant...
