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

Chapter 5 - 5 Her People Can Wait.



Sheng Ruming stared at the front and said casually.

"Haixiao I won't go to the company tomorrow. You take care of the matters of the company for a day. "

"Got it. Earlier, Yanli gave me the hospital's phone number. She have told me you should make a call before you go to see her."

Sheng Ruming just slightly glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Wang Haixiao and Ji Yanli have been his friends for many years and they could definitely guess he knew the woman's identity. But they remained shut and didn't bring this matter up until now, also it was not their place to butt in his personal matters.

Now that she has woken up let's see what will happen.

... ...

After the scheduled meetings were over, Sheng Ruming was on his way towards his home .He was in the vicinity of his villa but suddenly he thought of Luo Lixi and instead decided to go to the hospital.

"Turn the car. I'll go to the hospital."

The driver peeked at the rear view mirror and said "Sir, you look tired. Shouldn't it be better if you go there tomorrow? Also it's quite late now."

"It's not a problem. Just do as I say." his voice was unusually soft as he said.

The driver didn't say anything further and made a U-turn on the road. The car was going towards the Ailin Hospital. 

Sheng Ruming loosened his tie. He was both mentally and physically exhausted. During this period, the work at the company was very heavy. He leaned against his seat and closed his eyes.

It was already 11pm by the time they reached the hospital. 

"Sir, we are here." said the driver.

"Hmm" Sheng Ruming opened his eyes and turned outside. 

Before the driver could get down to open the door for him he already opened it and started walking towards the hospital's exit.This time one of the black cars followed him till here. Two of his bodyguards got down from that and followed closely behind him.

The security guards at the entrance didn't stop them .The Ailin Hospital is very famous and many important figures from various cities would come here to get treatment .So the security here is naturally very tight. 

In the past two months, they had seen Sheng Ruming countless times and already knew who he was. The hospital director personally told them not to offend him at any cost or they couldn't afford the result and would lose their job.

Sheng Ruming went straight to the lift. The people there after seeing him coming towards them hurriedly made some space. His two bodyguards stood each by his sides and maintained some distance from the people. The people knew at a glance he was some big shot and went to a side and left some space for them.

One of his bodyguards already clicked the button for the 7th floor. It shouldn't have taken them long to reach that floor but the people beside them stopped the lift to get down at almost all the floors. So it took them around ten minutes.

After reaching the floor, Sheng Ruming hurriedly walked towards the VIP room number 102. There were four people guarding the entrance. It looked heavily guarded. Whenever some people passed by this area they would think there might be some important figure admitted there. 

The four people were his top class bodyguards. They were his trusted personnel. He didn't believe in the hospital's security because never did they check him before allowing him to enter. That's why he placed his bodyguards here or his mind wouldn't be in peace. 

He went straight to the room. The bodyguards standing by the door greeted him respectfully. His other two bodyguards didn't follow him and stood outside.

Sheng Ruming carefully opened the room and went inside. His footsteps were very light and gentle as if he didn't want to disturb the woman lying there quietly.

He went to her side and touched her hands gently. His previous weary mood vanished within a second. He stared at her face and sat down beside her. 

"Lixi, finally you have gained conscious today. Even if it was for a second I'm happy. Please don't blame me for not informing your family." there was a sad smile on his face as he murmured slowly.

At first Sheng Ruming wanted to inform her family members but to his surprise they didn't take any step to find her, let alone any news about her disappearance. It was quite abnormal. 

The Luo family lives in the neighboring city. He investigated and there was definitely something fishy. So even if he wanted them to know abiut Luo Lixi's whereabouts, his first priority was her safety and he didn't dare or want to compromise about it.

Also Luo Lixi was in a coma and he didn't want to do anything that would bring harm to her. Her people can wait.

... ...

Sheng Ruming was staring at her pale face. Her hands were in his hands. He rubbed the cut mark of her right hand. 

Whenever he saw it his blood boiled in rage as the thought to murder someone flash. Just imaging, how much pain she had been through made his heart ache. He wouldn't spare anybody who was responsible for her misery. 

He examined her face. She had become so thin in these past two months. Her face was so pale. He raised his hand and gently caressed it. 

'I don't want to leave her here. What if she wakes up and doesn't see anyone familiar? I want to be the first person she'll see.' He thought to himself and made a decision then and there. 

Sheng Ruming stood up and went outside. He closed the door slowly behind him. 

"Bring me to the doctors who are in charge of her." he told his men.

"Yes." one of them replied and brought him to them. They walked side by side as they passed a lot of corridors and reached before a room. They entered it without any hesitation as if it was very natural.
