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

Chapter 153 - 153 Getting Caught While Peeping.

"I am done." After two minutes, Luo Lixi mumbled as she shoved more in her mouth and got up. Then, she grabbed a tissue and gently wiped her beautiful pink lips.

"You are done?!" Sheng Ruming inquired as he glanced around the table. Not even one-fifth portion was finished.

"I don't want to sleep with a full stomach. It will only add to my fat." Luo Lixi turned around and sauntered towards the kitchen.

Sheng Ruming kneaded his forehead and felt helpless. Then he put down his chopsticks and got up. He carried the used utensils and went into the kitchen but then Sheng Ruming halted at the door of it when he saw her drinking water from a bottle.

Sheng Ruming stared at her throat which was busy gulping down the mineral water. 

The man stared at her throat and saw the moving neck. 'Why am I feeling so thirsty?' He gulped and looked down on the ground. 

A light flush shaded the tip of his ears.

"Hey, what are you doing standing there?" Luo Lixi carried the bottle and went towards him. 

"Nothing." The man replied as she went past him. Then he saw she brought all the other utensils from the table. She placed those things beside the sink and then dragged him with her.

Sheng Ruming let her do as she pleased. Then both of them reached their bedroom. Then, she went to close all the windows of the room.

Sheng Ruming had an idea as to what she wanted to do. But then, he didn't want to have any expectations as sometimes, her actions were unpredictable.

  Suddenly the woman came before him. She stared at his eyes and whispered, "Ruming…"

"Yes." Even before he said further, he was pushed on the bed and she jumped beside him as well. 

"Lixi, you…" Sheng Ruming didn't have any idea what she was up to. The man was a little surprised at her boldness. Then he saw she took the remote control of the lights and in a second, the room became dark.

"Do you want to…" The man's remaining thought was, '... Do it?!' Sheng Ruming would be more than happy if she replied, 'Yes.'

Luo Lixi knew what he meant. She acted as if she didn't understand and dragged his head to put on the pillow.

"Let's sleep." She replied as she covered both of their bodies with a blanket. 

"I can't. I have work to finish yet…" Sheng Ruming wanted to get up but she placed her hands on his chest and forced him down.

"It's past 9. You will become old soon if you don't take care of yourself." Then, she snaked around his waist and tightly hugged him. Then, she placed her head on his chest.

Sheng Ruming blinked his eyes at her sudden unusual behaviour. Nonetheless, he hugged her back and remained silent. 

Even after several minutes, he couldn't fall asleep because he wasn't used to sleeping so early. 

As the lady's even breathing echoed beside his ears, he thought she had already fallen asleep. Thus, Sheng Ruming stopped his hand which was giving Luo Lixi a comfortable feeling on her back and whispered, "Good night…"

Luo Lixi stopped breathing and turned at his face. Then she softly pecked at his lips and said, "Good night." 

"You haven't slept yet!" In the dark room, nobody managed to see each other but it was okay for them. 

"No. How can I when your heart is beating so fast?!" Luo Lixi replied as she placed her head again on his chest. This time only to feel his heartbeat rate shoot up.

"If you are uncomfortable, then…"

"Stop talking and sleep. I am tired." As Luo Lixi spat out those words, Sheng Ruming closed his mouth shut. Thus, both of them became quiet. 

As Luo Lixi slowly fell into a slumber, she seemed to have vaguely heard something but her brain failed to register what it was.

The night deepened, both of them slept peacefully while another person's peace was gone.

Yan Ruomin stared at the 20th floor from her apartment's balcony. She was looking at the brightly lit up room when it became dark. She slowly zoomed on the window of that room when she felt someone was staring at her. 

It was an instinct of a human being.

As her binoculars moved a little, she accidentally saw a man glaring at her from the 19th floor. 

When Ethan Han saw the unknown lady was looking at him, he smirked which had murderous intent mixed. If he didn't know it was a woman without any evil intention, he would've kidnapped her.

Ethan Han had all the information about the surrounding area. Also, many of its buildings were his private property.  Thus, any new person who could stay there couldn't have any questionable background.

"Ah!" In fright, Yan Ruomin dropped her binoculars. "Who was that person?! Am I in trouble?" Yan Ruomin murmured as she looked down below. Then, she picked the binoculars and fixed them towards the 19th floor. But this time, there wasn't any person.

"Tch! Troublesome…" Yan Ruomin clicked his tongue as she closed her windows and dragged the curtains before it. Afterwards, she went towards her bed and sat down.

"What can I do? It's only 10 pm." Yan Ruomin thought as she glanced around. Thus, finally, she thought of her luggage which was closed till now.

So, late at night, she was busy unpacking her stuff.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

At the hospital, Feng Shaoling was in a chamber, checking patients alongside his professor. They were checking a patient's rare case and discussing something seriously when Feng Shaoling's phone rang.

"Sorry professor." Feng Shaoling told the old man as he turned off his phone.

"It's alright. Let's continue." Thus, for the next hour, they discussed the matter. 

Afterwards, Feng Shaoling walked out and turned on his phone. There he saw five missed calls from Feng Alin. He frowned and called back.

"Any important matter?" Feng Shaoling asked right away. He didn't want to waste time as he didn't have the luxury to do so.

Feng Alin was going to do an ad shot today with a renowned actress from another company. 

The stylist had already done his makeup and now he was doing that woman's. Suddenly, Feng Alin had the urge to call his brother thus he did it right away, without thinking much.

"Hehe, I missed you, dear~Did you miss me?" Feng Alin asked loudly without considering that it could cause people to have misunderstandings.

"I didn't." Feng Shaoling didn't take an extra second to reply as he walked inside another room. 

There, two other doctors were busy doing their work. He went ahead with the copy of the reports he had discussed earlier and sat down in a rotatable chair with it.

"How could you?! After you have left me, the other side of my bed has turned cold. How can I live without you?!" The other three people in the room became quiet when they heard it.

The actress, who would have a photoshoot with Feng Alin, peeked at the agitated man. Her assistant covered her mouth and went to whisper beside the actress's head.

"Sister Lei, I didn't expect that he would be in a relationship, moreover the girl has also left him. How smitten he looks!" The stylist continued to do her hair as the lady whispered.

"Shh! It's okay if he exposes it. Don't mention anything or you will bring trouble. Remember you are my secretary…" The little assistant shut up when her boss warned her.

"Lingling, remember to see me in your dreams. Ah, the beautiful face of yours… I really miss it." Feng Alin sighed as if he was very sad. Feng Shaoling laughed without any sound. 

"From the tone of yours, you want to talk for a long time with me, huh?" While plugging his earphones into the mobile set, Feng Shaoling asked and put one earphone in his left ear.

"Hmm, it's been several days and I already miss you. Today, I will do a half-naked photoshoot with a charming lady. I will definitely send you those pictures…" 

Feng Shaoling snapped the pen he was holding in half in anger. "Don't you dare, you rascal!" Feng Shaoling growled in a low voice but Feng Alin felt pleased by his brothers reaction.

"Hehe, don't be mad. I know you like to see my face."
