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

Chapter 318 - 318 Paying With A Black Card?!

Just listening to his words was enough to make her veins bulge, "I am sad. You have to comfort me. Let's go to bed..."

A very sincere invitation from Sheng Ruming, "Let's go after you finish your cake. I have made this for you…"

Luo Lixi gave him a doubtful glance. 'He can also make cakes now? Not bad!'

"Uhhh, the icing was done by me so it's the same thing. Cough!"

"Heh! I knew you were lying." Her thoughts changed drastically.

"Whatever!" 

It was alright if he got exposed before her. In the end, his hard work of icing the cake went down the drain because Luo Lixi refused to eat. 

Her reason was…

[It looks very sweet, can't afford to eat or she will have a toothache!']

… ...

The benefit of getting a fiance who cares about her was huge. Apart from getting angry sometimes, other matters were okay, also the benefits were much more to count.

Sheng Ruming didn't want a third person to disturb them so he made good for them with the fresh ingredients from the freeze. 

Luo Lixi was enjoying her time with folded legs and the man was extremely busy making her favourite dumplings.

Luo Lixi sometimes blinked embarrassedly and thought of giving him a helping hand but then she would decide against it.

Luo Lixi turned towards him and couldn't help but blurted out, "Ruming, don't you think you are like a diligent wife who is working hard to please his little husband?"

The rabbit-shaped dumpling Sheng Ruming was trying to make, lost its tail at that moment. Then, he blinked lazily and smiled back to her, "It's okay. I will feed my little husband during the day and play with her at night."

His ambiguous words were clear and full of meaning which was enough for Luo Lixi to shut up. 

When Sheng Ruming took another little piece of dough to make dumpling, Luo Lixi spoke out, "After finishing the dinner here, I will go to book another room to stay." 

This time, the perfectly shaped rabbit lost its penis~

The man didn't lift his head and answered stiffly, "Got it… Will you like some sour dumplings?"

"Ah?"

"Sour things are good for health. After all, vitamin C is needed for good skin and eyes." His smile which nearly reached his eyes made Luo Lixi mute.

Even though he knew why the man got pissed off, she wasn't willing to change her decision and thus went with his flow, "Alright. Do as you seem good."

This time, the rabbit's neck was broken and its eyes turned ×.×

… 

Sheng Ruming's mood was bad throughout the entire time he was making dumplings for her. But he didn't let her catch his dropping face.

When his one hand signalled her to come to the table, the hand was busy pouring little rabbit-shaped dumplings in the expensive French cutleries, 

Just one look and Luo Lixi felt like it was a disastrous scene. The image didn't fit in. But to appreciate Sheng Ruming's hard work and to cheer him up, she praised him with her eyes closed, "Mmm, Ruming, it smells good…"

The man didn't reply and forced her to sit down. Then, he dragged the silver plate in front of her and waited for her to start.

"... What about you?" She looked down and saw the plate was overflowing with dumpling soup. "What is this… a tortured rabbit?!"

Luo Lixi poked the broken dumplings which looked like zombies and suspiciously looked at him. 

Sheng Ruming snatched her fork and stabbed the one without a head and put it in his mouth. The red fillings came out and made his lips bloody. 

She gulped down hard when watching this scene. The man, however, took a tissue and wiped his lips elegantly. "Sour enough. You should start now." 

"Oh." She got back the fork and stabbed a good rabbit. However, when she put it in her mouth and crushed it with her teeth, her whole face creased in utter sourness, 'Oh my heaven! My sweet teeth can't handle it!'

She put down the fork and picked up the wine glass. Under his watchful eyes, Luo Lixi poured down red wine in it and gulped down in one shot. 

When she was done, his eyes flashed and his lips hung a vague arc.

"You did it on purpose, right?" Luo Lixi snapped out as she stood up. When he didn't reply, she rushed into the washroom and changed into her dress. 

When Luo Lixi left, he didn't follow. His eyes looked towards the red rose bouquet in the corner.

… …

"I want a new suite. Can you check if there is any left?" Luo Lixi asked the receptionist of the hotel. 

The woman still remembered the disappointed look Xiao Huang had and the result of failure she had heard. Her witty brain immediately came out with a new plan, "Sorry ma'am. All rooms are full now."

"Ah, all? What about business class?... The normal room will do too." Luo Lixi asked her with a lot of patience. 

Currently, it was 7:30 pm and she needed to have a proper rest yet now she had to come out to book another. 

Unfortunately, the receptionist shook her in dismay, "I am sorry. There is none."

Luo Lixi stared at the other woman. Suddenly she remembered that Pan Er Jiu brought the room card from here and Sheng Ruming's suite's card was also given at that time. 

Then, she didn't need another second to figure out something. So, Luo Lixi turned around and left. 

The receptionist panicked when she saw Luo Lixi leaving the hotel. She ran after her in her long heels, "Ma'am, where are you going? I can talk with the manager and will try to figure something out for you." 

Luo Lixi stopped and turned sideways, "Fine. I am going out and will return in a few minutes. See if you can do anything." 

Afterwards, Luo Lixi left in large steps. The receptionist returned and notified Xiao Huang of the matter. When Sheng Ruming knew, he just asked one thing, "Has her bodyguards come here as well?"

"I don't think, boss. I didn't see even one of them." Xiao Huang replied with uncertainty. 

"Well, then keep an eye on her. Don't let her discover you." Sheng Ruming muttered without any interest as he was busy poking the rabbit-shaped dumplings. 

The man had injected vinegar in three dumplings and the others were her favourites but because of her sudden outburst, all were left. 

So now, he was poking the last sour one and in the end, he put it in the mouth. While munching he couldn't help but blurted out, "Too sour…"

… …

When Luo Lixi left the hotel and was aimlessly walking on the streets, her eyes attracted Pan Er Jiu's silhouette, who was busy bargaining for a bag with a seller. 

When she got close, finally she heard the contents of the bargain and felt a new world had opened its gate before her…

[Seller: One price, 300!

Er Jiu: I will only give you 13! Either give me or I am leaving.

But before she could take three steps, the urgent male voice yelled out from behind.

Seller: Girl, give me 50. I won't accept any lower price than it!

Er Jiu turned around and smirked: 15! No more!

Seller:... Deal!]

Luo Lixi was dumbfounded as she saw Pan Er Jiu buying a cute bag of Pikachu design. Her mind felt disturbed for no reason. 'From 500 to 15… this…'

"Ah, miss! You are here?!" As soon as Pan Er Jiu turned around, she got a big shock. It was a moment of awkwardness. 'Ah, my boss has seen me arguing like a fish seller! What will she think of me?!'...

After thirty minutes, both of them were strolling on the busy street. Nobody talked as they walked. 

Pan Er Jiu was stiff all the way she walked with Luo Lixi. She was the one who suggested her to come with her yet now she didn't know what to say.

"Er Jiu, I want to buy some things as well. Can you bargain for me? Cough!" Luo Lixi felt embarrassed but even then she was very curious and wanted to see how far Pan Er Jiu could go.

Hearing her, the other person immediately regained her vitality and muttered in delight, "Of course, I will help you."

So both of them got mixed in the crowd. When Pan Er Jiu roadside jewellery shop, immediately she ran there. While leaving, she dragged Luo Lixi with her.

Luo Lixi blinked as she swept her eyes on those cheap accessories. Pan Er Jiu took two pairs of earrings and bargained with the seller. Again this time, she was successful to bring down the price from 50 to 7.

"Ah, miss, why are you just standing there? Pick something you like …" After turning around, Pan Er Jiu smiled as she placed her newly bought earrings in her bag. 

"Why did you buy similar things?" Luo Lixi stepped towards her and asked. While asking, her sight inwardly fell on the things… earrings, bengals, bracelets, all things were there.

"Ahha, one is for me and another is for my mother." Pan Er Jiu replied as she stood aside and waited for Luo Lixi to buy something.

Currently, her inner mind was jumping all around. 'Today, I will let my boss see my extraordinary power… will I get a raise then?'

"Oh… I see... you are a good child. Mommy's baby." Pan Er Jiu blushed when she was teased. She couldn't even retort because she was her 'BOSS'.

Luo Lixi's face was cast down as her fingers touched the hairpins. Suddenly, she saw a hairpin with peach-shaped crystals and little pink flowers. 

Luo Lixi picked it up and brought it in front of her eyes and checked the thing. She liked it very much and asked the seller right away, "How much is it?"

From the time they had come, the seller had been keeping a look at them. Just from Luo Lixi's dress and appearance, anybody could feel the rich vibes. 

Thus, when the seller saw her picking something, she immediately turned her attention to Luo Lixi and answered her right away, "One price, 100 yuan!"

'Cheap…' It was the first thought which crossed her mind but then she turned towards Pan Er Jiu and nodded her head as if motioning, 'You shall start bargaining.'

Pan Er Jiu got the meaning and heroically stepped ahead. She snatched the thing from Luo Lixi and sharply turned towards the seller, "What hundred?! I'll give only 20!"

The seller felt like crying, 'Little girl, at least let me earn a little today… T.T'
