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

Chapter 313 - 313 "Why Is It So Red?!"

Without delay, she messaged him, "Honey, are you there?"

Sheng Ruming, who was angrily staying at his phone screen paused when the message popped up suddenly. 

When he saw the person's message he was waiting for so long as if spring had come. His cold face turned warm.

His finger flew across the screen. Even though he wanted to ask many things like why did you ignore me, why didn't you call me once but his stiff fingers squeezed out only one word.

"Sleeping."

From the word, Luo Lixi imagined his ice tone, icy attitude. A dark face that said 'You owe me too much!'

Luo Lixi suddenly felt funny facing Sheng Ruming's message. Currently, she was wearing silk pyjamas. All the lights in her room were turned off and the windows were opened.

The night was deep, Luo Lixi didn't want to bother Sheng Ruming too much.

"Fine, sleep then Good night~"

 After quitting the app, she continued to watch the TV series. But the person across the phone's screen turned restless when he saw her reply.

He called her directly but because she put the phone on DND mode, Luo Lixi didn't see the incoming call.

She was laid on the soft bed on her chest and watched the drama with interest.

After she finished it, it had turned midnight. Luo Lixi couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned but then sat up. Her eyes glanced around the darkroom.

Finally, Luo Lixi fell asleep but the sleep wasn't satisfactory at all. She had weird dreams one after another. Coupled with the stimulation she went through for a few days, her mind was under pressure.

Inside the dream, Luo Lixi seemed to feel someone's presence in her bed, supported on both sides of her body. The heavy source of heat made her frown.

She was aware that a set of black orbs were deeply staring at her and after a long time it leaned down. The tall and straight body entangled with her body and whispered beside her ear, "Do you want it?"

Facing the obvious temptation and familiar voice, she couldn't say no and her mind replied, "I want."

But unfortunately, no sound came out. Her lips trembled but she couldn't call out to the other person.

But it seemed the other person knew her answer. He chuckled softly and unbuttoned her clothes. With gentle care, he pushed up her dresses.

'Who?!' Luo Lixi wanted to open her eyes but her hands lacked strength. Her two bunnies were pushed and rubbed by the other person's big hands.

Then, the man directly pressed his hand on the top of her head. He rubbed her scalp to make her comfortable. It seemed the other person wanted her to dive into a deep slumber. In that way, It would be more convenient for him to do something. 

… ...

The morning birds' chirping came through the windows. 

Luo Lixi was sleeping soundly. She didn't know how long the strange dream lasted until all her last shred of energy ran out.

Slowly, her black orbs trembled as she woke up. Her mind was surrounded by foggy memories.

Her eyelashes fluttered as she thought, 'I seem to hear the sound of Sheng Ruming.' 

But when she remembered the contents of the dream, being pressed by the big shadow of the body, the kind of shy and suffocating feeling that forced her to whimper like there was no time made her finally wake up.

"Ahhhhh! Lixi, how could you dream such a thing?!" Luo Lixi took the pillow and pressed it down on her head. In order to know the time, she reached out for it. 

It was five o'clock.

'Too early!' She threw away the pillow and thought with flushed cheeks, 'That strange spring dream… I didn't see the opponent's face but he seemed to be Sheng Ruming. Am I on heat?!'

When her thought came to this, she slapped her head, "Oops, what am I thinking?! Lixi, are you in heat or what?!"

Luo Lixi tried to forget about him and turned over to sleep. It's just that all kinds of messy thoughts forced her from sleeping.

When Aunt Zhu came to wake her up, unexpectedly a properly dressed Luo Lixi greeted her.

"Grandma, good morning." Luo Lixi walked out and hooked her hand around Aunt Zhu's arm.

"Ah, morning, miss. If I knew you are awake, I would have told the kitchen to make breakfast earlier." 

"It's fine. I will go to see my grandfather and come down with him. You can start the preparation for it."

"I can only do so." 

… …

Knock~ Knock~

"Come in." Luo Qintian's voice came out from the room. Luo Lixi entered and helped him to bring down the stairs.

Because elder Luo got to see his granddaughters face early in the morning, his mood was good from other days.

When breakfast was being served, Luo Qintian saw her, the spirit was not very good, and the pale face and vague eye bags. In his eyes, Luo Lixi looked like a patient. 

"When did you sleep yesterday? Does the company have too much work?" Luo Qintian threw all the blame on his company.

"It was very hot during the night. I haven't slept very much." Luo Lixi answered in a hurry.

 Luo Qintian stared at her deeply and snorted, "Who are you trying to lie?! Why did I install the AC in your room then? Staying up all night to watch dramas. Do you think I don't know your habit?" 

"Ah, grandfather, you are wrong. The reason is …" Luo Lixi remembered about the spring dreams she had, her face turned crimson, 

"The reason, what is it then?" The old man sharply stared at her. 

Unfortunately, even though she tried to avoid Luo Qintian's gaze, the two people were seated side by side and the old man saw her blushing eventually.

"Why is it so red?" Luo Lixiang looked at her eyes and saw her avoiding him. 'It's more doubtful!'
