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

Chapter 160 - 160 To Long City.

"I know…" Sheng Ruming glanced at her lips and the next second he pounced on her like a hungry wolf. 'Lixi, I will make sure it will be the happiest moment in our life!'

Luo Lixi's head bumped against a soft cushion and it rolled on the floor. She was more angry rather than shy.

He pressed on her body from above and wanted to cuddle her because he was happy but Luo Lixi abruptly kicked him and the man fell on the floor.

Sheng Ruming was dumbfounded and glanced at her in shock. It was too much for him to digest that she would do this to him.

"Why?"

"Don't always act like a hooligan! The door is open!" She gritted her teeth against each other.

"So what…" 

Luo Lixi sat up on the sofa and hurriedly adjusted her dress. Then, she stood up and ran towards the open door.

"Where are you going, baby?" Luo Lixi asked the little girl who was standing before the elevator.

"You are busy. So I will come later." Sarah turned around and told her in her sweet baby voice. But her face was strange. There wasn't any lovely expression like she always showed.

"Sister isn't busy, not at all. Come." Luo Lixi brought her inside the penthouse. Sheng Ruming had already stood up. He narrowed his eyes as the little silhouette came in sight.

"Good morning, uncle." Sarah bowed slightly.

"Hmm." 

Sarah's face turned sad.

Luo Lixi glared at him fiercely because of his cold reply. Sheng Ruming saw it. He was sure she would reprimand him later and it's unpleasant.

  "Good morning… Sarah. What are you doing here in the morning?" The man saw her school uniform and asked, "Will you go to your school?"

"School has ended. I came here directly when I knew sister is at home. The receptionist uncle told me." 

Then, Sarah turned towards Luo Lixi. "I just came back. Also, my home is empty. Sister,  come with me. Let's play video games again." Sarah held her pants and shook it.

"Alright." 

"Yay! Hug me." 

So, Luo Lixi had to hug the child. Without leaving any words behind, both of them walked out.

Sheng Ruming saw them as his arms were crossed on his chest. Then, he walked to the study room. There he sat on the leather chairs. 

Before him was his laptop. While turning it on, he called someone, "We will return tomorrow. The destination is Long city."

After the call ended, his eyes turned to the laptop. The man decided to emerge himself in his tasks before those were sorted out.

After both Luo Lixi and Sarah went to the 19th floor's penthouse, she helped the girl to change into a comfortable dress.

"Let's play a game."

Luo Lixi shook her head. "Did you finish the puzzle?"

As they talked, both of them reached Sarah's big play room. 

"I can't finish it. It's too hard!" Both of them walked up to the big puzzle on the floor. It had onerous 200 pieces was difficult to put in place.

"You are a baby, that's why you are saying it's hard. But it's easy. Come, I will help you."

Luo Lixi sat down and then took the chubby child on her thighs. "Place it here. Try this…"

As Luo Lixi instructed, Sarah placed those pieces on the places from a box. 

The puzzle was of a cute pikachu with togepi. Both of them spent most of their time trying to match.

"Sister, you also failed." Sarah said as she stared at the messed up puzzle.

'I made a fool of myself before the child!' She took hold of her loosened hair and made a bunch which rested on top of her head.

"Don't give up, Sarah. Let's try until it's done!" She fisted her hand and tried to give the girl motivation.

Sarah nodded her head vigorously and shouted, "Okie~"

So the two females, one small and one big again started to work on the puzzle. When they finally matched that at the third attempt, Sarah clapped her hands loudly.

"Yay! Finally!"

At the kid's joyful laughter,  Luo Lixi smiled. "Look it's done."

Sarah nodded her head. But then, her face became sad. Luo Lixi saw this and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sister, uncle is a badie." She pouted her cheeks.

"What?! Why is he a badie?!" 

Sarah continued to say, "I saw, he pushed you down and must have beat you. I was so scared that I ran away."

Luo Lixi turned speechless. "He didn't beat me."

"But I saw. In our school, there is also a bad boy who once pushed down a boy and punched him. It's the same." 

'What should I say now?' Luo Lixi thought to say something. "It was an accident. He didn't beat me at all. Look, Sister is alright. There is no bruises."

Sarah saw Luo Lixi's face and there wasn't anything. She felt relieved.

"Gosh! I thought, I should call my father. It's good that you are okay." The girl stood up from her thighs and tightly hugged her.

"Sarah, don't mention it again in front of outsiders." Luo Lixi told her in a deep voice. 

"Mommy…"

"No. Not before mommy as well. Promise me." Luo Lixi raised her pinky before Sarah and asked, "Promise?".

Sarah immediately hooked her own little pinky around hers. "Promise. Not before mommy."

"Hey, not before everyone."

"Not before everyone." Sarah answered as both of them tightly hooked their pinky fingers. 

"Done." Luo Lixi said as she was pleased. She vividly remembered what Yuexin told her once about the sound coming from the balcony.

Afterwards, they played video games together. As well as watching some anime. It was the first time as Luo Lixi even saw those childish things.

Some hours had passed already. Luo Lixi saw the time on the clock of the play room."Why isn't your mommy back yet?"

"I don't know. She will come back soon." Sarah rubbed her eyes and answered.
