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

She leaned against Ben's body and rubbed her body against him in a lewd way. Ji Yanli went 'O'ed for the second time today by this bold behaviour of the other person. 

The other person felt elated by Ji Yanli's reaction and a foxy smile which was able to capture even her soul in a second, bloomed on her face, "Master, who is this new girl? Is she a new item you have taken a liking to?"

Hearing her, Ben stiffened but the other people didn't show any reaction. While Michael's lips raised into a huge smile and when he turned his eyes to Ji Yanli, he noticed the other person only watched them with interest.

"Don't joke, Kiera. She is a friend of mine." Ben replied with annoyance and ordered angrily, "Now, get off of me." 

The woman continued to cling and this time, her claws went towards Ji Yanli's face without any warning. 

Kiera had long nails with beautiful designs. She moved her finger before Ji Yanli and lifted her face with the back of her nail, "Little beauty, even if your figure isn't to my liking but I like this face of yours. It's tasty!"

Hearing her, Ben turned towards Ji Yanli's face. He wanted to watch her reaction when the latter showed a smile and leaned towards him. 

Ben's eyes went big in puzzle as he saw her doing the same to Kiera, "I also like your figure… Kiera! Hehe~"

Ji Yanli even raised her two hands and rubbed Kiera's two cheeks vigorously. One was like a spring breeze with fragrance while the other one was like a dainty rose.

Without their notice, everyone's eyes went to stare towards them. Both Ji Yanli and Kiera were very beautiful in their way and it looked pleasing to the eyes when others saw the picture of these two women getting well with each other.

Before Kiera teased another woman like this but the other woman showed obvious disgust at this kind of behaviour and scolded her. 

But that poor lady didn't know the identity of this woman and even dared to mock that Kiera was like a vixen who would open her legs for others without any reason. 

The result, that woman got sold in the open market of the underground city and even her parents didn't go to save her.

Ji Yanli's answer was replied by the hearty laughter of the other lady. She got up and threw Ben on the ground and sat beside her. 

However, Ben didn't flare up and threw Michael the next second. Snatching the seat and sitting with calm. The other people in the room also didn't show any reaction to this. 

"Little beauty, your name?" Kiera asked as she hugged Ji Yanli's waist. She even motioned to the woman who was standing to a side with a tray. 

"Lili." Ji Yanli replied as the other party handed her a glass of purple wine. She didn't hold back and gulped down the drink in a shot. Afterwards, she licked the inside of her mouth and murmured, "Umm, it's tasty."

"Really? Oh." Kiera smiled gently as she handed her another glass which was identical to earlier. "If you like then have more." 

But Ji Yanli denied her while shaking her head. She cast a glance towards Ben and Michael who had averted their gazes to another way as soon as she looked towards them. 

"Even though I am considered to have good alcohol tolerance, I should avoid it. Huhu~" Her hollow laugh made her look guilty. 

Kiera didn't move the glass she was holding and whispered, "It's a drink made exclusively in this bar and you won't find it anywhere else. Also, it doesn't have any alcohol. After all, I don't want a little beauty like you to get drunk. It's very fatal~" 

Kiera winked her eyes wickedly. Ji Yanli's face got an extra shade of whiteness when she heard her and gulped down this shot without any dilly dally.

After Ji Yanli drank two glasses of wine, she didn't dare to drink anymore because Wang Haixiao had told her the things she would do after getting drunk. Thus even though her poor heart bleed when her hungry eyes saw those drinks, she held back. 

'If Wang Haixiao was here, I would have jumped up to drink them…' She regretted that she didn't bring the man.

Currently, Ji Yanli was playing cards with Kiera. From the atmosphere, she knew that the other party was a woman with status. Even Ben and Michael were polite when they talked with her.

When Ji Yanli was done fooling with her cards and felt bored but didn't show it obviously because she was around with Kiera and several men were staring at them, a man in his thirties opened the closed door of the room and walked in.

Watching the man, Kiera raised her eyes and motioned him to come beside her.

"Madam, there is a situation at hand…" They whispered something among them seriously. Others failed to hear a single word.

Ji Yanli noticed that while the man was whispering, Kiera's face slowly lost the liveliness and playfulness of earlier and became damn sharp with hostility.

She abruptly stood up and turned to Ji Yanli, saying with regret, "It's a pity that I will have to leave miss Lili." 

"Oh, no problem." Ji Yanli shook her hand to show it's okay. Her heart jumped in relief when she knew that Kiera would be leaving. 'Hurry up and go! My fun is turning mushy because of you. Even those two brats are staying here and didn't move, how annoying!'

Ji Yanli put down the five cards she was holding on the table and smirked. Watching those, Kiera muttered out in a smile which she let out with difficulty, "I see you would have won if we didn't get interrupted."

Ji Yanli didn't reply but took back the saving card which was worth a hundred thousand dollars. Her face could not contain the victorious smile. 

Ben's lips twisted when he saw her undisguised emotions. 

"It's fine, Kiera. After all, I didn't lose out in this round. You go ahead!" Ji Yanli folded her legs and flapped her broken loden hair.

"Heh. I think I'll make an appointment with you to snatch back your money." 

"You are welcome anytime." Ji Yanli showed a provocative look but unlike what others thought, Kiera didn't become displeased and turned around, "Let's go."

After Kiera left, Ji Yanli felt as if she finally got back her breath. Earlier, her back broke out in cold sweat because she was lured to fall into a trap by another man and in the end, she had to use her last straw, the card in which both her and Wang Haixiao's money was for the bet.

If she had lost it, she was sure that in the next few months, Wang Haixiao would make her work until she turned old and boneless.

Ben rushed towards Ji Yanli and playfully said, "I see that you are very rich. Roaming everywhere with so much wealth. Aren't you afraid that someone will rob you of your money?!"

Ji Yanli waved her hand dramatically and replied with obvious sarcasm, "Oh c'mon. This amount is nothing. It's the pocket money my Haixiao gave me to spend."

Ben's smile froze as soon as she uttered those words. Even Michael couldn't help the frown from being broken out on his temple, 'For a moment I forgot that she is married.'

Both he and Ben were unhappy because they couldn't do anything except watch her smiling as she put the card in her bag. 

'I am thirsty.' Ji Yanli licked her lips as she glanced around. Unknown to her, several men were watching her secretly. When the act of her licking lips fell in their eyes, for a reason they felt very stuffy in their pants.

One man understood her needs. He took a glass in which a pink drink was and tried to give it to her. Both Ben and Michael reacted and wanted to forbid the man but Ji Yanli took it in her hand. 

"Thanks, man." Ji Yanli gulped it down in one shot and her eyes lit up, again. 

Ben was so speechless that he lost his words. It was Michael who snatched the glass and whispered, "Hey, don't you know not to drink anything given by strangers?!"

Ji Yanli contemplated for a few seconds and only after her brain, which was beyond safe from being drunk understood him, did she nod, "I know~ But then I wanted to drink… hiccup~ Don't you know that my alcohol tolerance is good?... Hic! This amount can't make me drunk… hiccup!~"

Ji Yanli didn't wait for these two people to react as she stood up and left. Her blushing face had already turned a big ripe tomato. No matter who watched her, they couldn't help but want to rub her cheeks vigorously.

"Where is the washroom… hic~" Ji Yanli thought so as she glanced around. By then Ben and Michael had already found her.
