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

"..." Sheng Ruming felt pain, for what, only he knew.

\'How… Can I tell him that it was none other than the petite looking Luo Lixi?!\' Sheng Ruming pressed the ice bag on his bruise hard so as to remind himself not to scold the other person. 

Even the stinging pain couldn\'t reduce the shock he got today!

Sheng Ruming tried to close the room but it was caught by Xiao Huang. "Boss, you must say that bastard\'s name before you enter. I swear I will kill him!"

Sheng Ruming\'s footsteps paused. Even though he knew Xiao Huang was saying those because he didn\'t know it was Lixi, he still felt angry.

He gave an evil grin as he inched towards Xiao Huang. The man who was ready to avenge his boss got a bad feeling. His instinct told him to run away but how could he?

Nonetheless, because of Sheng Ruming\'s approach, Ciao Huang was pressured and subconsciously stepped back. 

Thus, both of them ended up in the corridor.

Sheng Ruming went beside Xiao Huang\'s ear and murmured in suppressed hostility, "Huang, if you spit another terrible word, I will cut out your entire tongue from its root. Also, if you dare to say \'I will kill\' again… even before your cells could breathe, I\'ll strangle them one by one!"

"..." After Sheng Ruming was done, both of them exchanged some glimpses. Xiao Huang missed stiffly.

 Then, he turned his face and saw the room number. He got cold feet, \'Boss… is not beaten by madam, right?\' 

Xiao Huang didn\'t dare to voice out his doubt but then looking at the room number, he guessed so to some extent. 

Right then, the door opposite them opened. A familiar man came out while talking on his phone. 

The man had a distorted smile as if he was planning something bad and was waiting for the other person to fall into the trap!

When he walked out, he was busy talking and closing the door, ignoring the presence of the other two men.

Both men stopped whatever they were thinking and subconsciously turned to the grinning man.

… …

"Yanli, don\'t be a fool. You are old enough and know the gain and lose. That Haixiao can\'t fulfil all your desires. That is for sure I know!" Yan Luhan tried to pursue Ji Yanli but the other person was mum. Yan Luhan felt that he was like a great villain trying to trap someone.

Ji Yanli stared at her door with a blank face. \'Do I look like someone who has many desires?! Bruh!\' 

Yan Luhan said again, "I will gift you a big shopping mall if you become my girlfriend. Also, a generous share of the Ming city shopping mall."

Ji Yanli\'s brain got many question marks. \'What day and age am I living?!\' Ji Yanli had the urge to travel through the connection line and then open up Yan Luhan\'s head to see what was there. \'Will I sell myself for a shopping mall? How disgusting!\'

She dished in anger, "Mr Yan, do you think I am a shopping maniac? Why are you giving me such offers in the first place, I can\'t understand!"

"Cough! I thought you would like…" Yan Luhan stopped speaking when he was greeted by two pairs of eyes glaring at him. 

The man froze in his trails. Instead of going outside, he waved towards them with an angelic smile.

Sheng Ruming asked Yan Luhan while feeling the chill from the ice bag, "It\'s Yanli, right?"

Ji Yanli, who was organizing to have a heart to heart talk with Yan Luhan for the man to stop targeting her family for unreasonable means, stopped her words on the tip of her tongue. 

She whispered, "Ruming is with you?"

Yan Luhan didn\'t like the intimate way Ji Yanli always used to talk with Sheng Ruming. Many times, he was jealous. Like other people, once he also thought Sheng Ruming and she might be dating behind other\'s back. 

Yan Luhan didn\'t answer her deliberately and walked towards Sheng Ruming. He answered loudly for all to hear, "Yes, it\'s her. You are here for tomorrow\'s bidding, right?... Ah, what\'s wrong with your face?"

Yan Luhan asked the same thing as Xiao Huang. Whoever could see him would ask the same thing. 

Ji Yanli became restless hearing Yan Luhan\'s voice, "Luhan, is Ruming with you? Hey?"

The man covered his bruise with the ice bag. \'Why are people so enthusiastic about my bruise?!\'

"Ahha, let me see…" Yan Luhan smiled thoughtfully and stepped ahead. The man directly touched the bruise around Sheng Ruming\'s neck, getting a shriek from the injured man successfully, "Ouch! Yan Luhan, you dog!"

"Hehe!" Yan Luhan was very happy. 

… …

Ji Yanli was ignored. In anger, she disconnected the call with Yan Luhan and in the next second, she called Sheng Ruming. 

"Yes?" When Sheng Ruming saw the name, he suspiciously turned to Yan Luhan. 

Watching the name on Sheng Ruming\'s screen, Yan Luhan lifted his phone and only then he noticed.

"Ruming! Your Luhan brother has gone mad! Back then he rejected my confession brutally and now he wants me to become his girlfriend! How dare he think this?! Wuah!" Ji Yanli shot a barrage of words. 

Hearing those, Sheng Ruming was surprised and glanced at Yan Luhan. \'Yanli was rejected by Luhan and I didn\'t know such a big thing?!\'

Only then he realised that whenever Ji Yanli used to see Yan Luhan, her face would have a vague hostility. He just thought it might be because Yan Luhan was their competitor. He didn\'t think there was a side story in it...

Yan Luhan rubbed his nose and whispered, "Ah Ming, whatever she is saying… are all lies! Don\'t believe her, believe in your bro."

Sheng Ruming nodded his head thoughtfully and said, "I also think so. Just now, she has told me she wants to be your girlfriend. I guess it\'s guaranteed to be a lie."

Ji Yanli, "When did I say?"

Yan Luhan, "... Ah, re.. really?!"
