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

Chapter 78 - 78 Fake Apology...

All in all, Yan Ruomin was sent to the hospital and soon the news spread in the social media but the reason for which she had to be admitted was unknown to most of the people. 

So the reporters who knew, twisted the real fact many times while the general public tried to guess and even some people's imagination began to run wild. 

Some reporters even managed to dig information about the maid who was sent with Yan Ruomin to the hospital. 

When it was known she was a servant of the Yan farmhouse but the matter involving her having homophobia wasn't known by anyone. So some reporters even took the chance and made some juicy news for entertainment like Yan Ruomin had bullied the servant girl and thus deserved to be sick and hospitalised. Though it didn't cause any uproar in the media as she was just a servant but Yan Ruomin especially hated the fact as she was totally innocent in this regard. 

Sur Mengsi couldn't fire the maid when the media was bombarding about their news. Yan Ruomin was very displeased about it and made the servant take care of her in the hospital. The injury was light but the broken glass piece made that worse.  She just needed to be admitted in the hospital for two days and the next day she returned to the Yan residence.

This woman was the kind who held grudges for everything. So the next few days she tormented that maid a lot till she had broken down in tears.

Though, Yan Ruomin and Su Mengsi inquired Yan Luhan about what happened in the rooftop which even caused her to be seriously injured.

Yan Lunan told them everything but twisted some lines and added some lies. He avoided the part where Ji Yanli caused her to fall on the ground.

Su Mengsi was so frustrated after hearing everything. Mainly the part where Yan Ruomin slapped Ji Yanli. At first, Yan Ruomin didn't believe it. In her mind, it was impossible for her to act like a vulgar described by the events Yan Luhan told them. 

In her life, she didn't get drunk so badly before so it was hard to digest the information Yan Luhan told her.

In return, Yan Luhan asked Wang Haixiao for the video and showed that to the both of them. Wang Haixiao was also sly. He cut away half of the whole video and kept the original one with him. That night when he sent a clip to Feng Shaoling, that was also the half one.

After seeing the video, Su Mengsi was frustrated as to what to do. She had wanted her daughter to be a calm and proper lady before everyone but her plan failed as Sheng Ruming already saw the worst behaviour of her. 

Also, Yan Ruomin had offended Ji Yanli which wasn't a good thing. Both the Sheng couple and Sheng Ruming valued Ji Yanli. If the video got exposed, the impression Yan Ruomin had made so hardworking before Wei Airan would be wasted. Also, Ji Yanli's parents would be mad if they saw their daughter was slapped by someone. So Su Mengsi called Ji Yanli from the hospital and made Yan Ruomin apologize to her. 

But what they didn't know was that a simple thing like going to the hospital turned into a big issue just not just for the reporters but Ji  Yanli played a part in it. She was very furious when she got the slap on her face. Even after the second day, the hand mark didn't go away. Also, she was unable to explain to her parents about it when they had gone to their grandparents home to meet them.

At the surface she humbly accepted the apology, inside she snorted at the fake apology of Yan Ruomin.

...

In the car, Sheng Ruming was seated on his seat. The whole car was quiet and solemn.

The very sight of the bag which Wei Airan had given him, made him uneasy.

At first, he wanted to throw it away but didn't do it in the end. Because his mother had guessed his thoughts and immediately after he had gone a little far, his mobile got a message from her.

[Don't even think about throwing the bag away. I have put my precious time into searching those products on the Internet. Don't dare to waste them. Or else…]

Wei Airan also sent a private message to Xiao Huang, telling him to notify her if Sheng Ruming does something like that.

When Xiao Huang peeked at the rearview mirror to see him after he had read the message in his phone, there was nothing left to not understand for Sheng Ruming.

After arriving at the villa, Sheng Ruming went to meet Luo Lixi in her room. But she wasn't there. He also went to the closet room but didn't find anyone. 

So, first he wanted to place the bag in his room and then to look for her.

But when he opened the door, he saw the light was turned on in there. He slowly stepped in as he saw Luo Lixi was reading a book while she was on a chair near the open windows.

He didn't expect he would see such a scene after arriving in the villa.

It was 9 o'clock then.

When Luo Lixi felt someone's presence in the room, she turned her room and saw Sheng Ruming had come.

She hurriedly closed the book and stood up from the chair.

"You have come."

"Hmm. Don't mind me, continue what you were doing." He told her as he placed the bag on his working desk and went to get his laptop.

"Actually, I was feeling very bored without anything to do. Last night I saw these books here so today I came to read them to time pass." Luo Lixi hurriedly explained to the man. She was afraid he would misunderstand her.
