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

Chapter 90 - 90 Farewell...

Luo Lixi was awake the whole journey. She even witnessed the beautiful sunset along the way. Though she would watch the sunset from her room's windows, today's sunset seemed very different.

The cars stopped before a few inches from the people.

Luo Lixi didn't wait for Sheng Ruming to open her door as she got down from it without anyone's help. When Sheng Ruming saw she had already gone out, he opened the car door beside him and got down. He circled around the car and went beside her side. The cars drove away hurriedly and went back the way they had come.

"Lixi, come. Let me introduce you to them." He took her right hand in his left hand and walked ahead.

Sheng Ruming waved his hand slightly and motioned at the woman.

"She is Ji Yanli. My high-school friend and secretary at the Sheng Industry and Corporation."

"Yanli, she is Li Xixi."

 Both of the women nodded at each other as Ji Yanli seized her from head to toe. She was very interested in Luo Lixi as Sheng Ruming didn't let her investigate this unknown woman. 

Luo Lixi also glanced at the beautiful and sexy woman in front of her. Even though the sky had turned dark already, the woman was wearing black sunglasses. Even the bodyguards didn't wear them. She had dark red lipstick on her lips while her hair was untied. In her black Pant, white shirt under the black jacket and high heels; she could make any man breathless. 

"Lixi, he is Wang Haixiao. Also my high-school friend and PA." Sheng Ruming introduced the man in the black suit as well.

"Hello, miss Li. Nice to see you."

"Hello, Mr. Wang." Luo Lixi slightly smiled at the cheerful Wang Haixiao.

"Mr. Sheng, can I have a minute with you?" The other man asked Sheng Ruming.

"Wait for me for a while." Luo Lixi nodded as Sheng Ruming went to the man and they walked a little distance from them while they talked about some serious matters. Wang Haixiao also followed Sheng Ruming and went ahead.

Now, only the two women were left behind. Ji Yanli smiled as she went a little close towards Luo Lixi. At that Luo Lixi lifted her head and glanced at her.

 Due to Ji Yanli's high heels, she appeared a little tall from Luo Lixi. Luo Lixi had to lift her head a little bit to meet her gaze.

"Miss Li, I hope your health is okay now. We were very worried about you when you were in a coma."

Luo Lixi's smile dimmed a little as she answered, "Thanks for worrying about me, miss Ji. But I'm completely fine now."

"How can you be okay?! I have appointed the best doctor for you to treat your hand injury for you."

"You?!"

"Yes, I'm Ruming's secretary. So these small things would always be handled by me." Throughout the conversation, Ji Yanli didn't change her business-like smile. While she was talking, she was staring at Luo Lixi's face to detect any change but she was disappointed. Luo Lixi's face didn't reveal any expression she wanted to.

"Oh! I guess It sure falls in the work of a secretary." After saying she turned away her gaze and fixed her eyes on Sheng Ruming.

Ji Yanli also followed her gaze and looked at the sight where the three men were discussing something. It was something Ji Yanli knew very well. 

"Miss Li."

"Yes?"

"Can I ask you something?"

At that Luo Lixi turned towards her. 

"Go ahead."

"Did you know our CEO personally? I mean even before you went into the coma?" Ji Yanli asked as she wanted to get some information about her.

Ji Yanli saw Luo Lixi was silent so she hurriedly opened her mouth.

"Don't misunderstand me, miss Li. I'm just curious, nothing else. You can trust in me."

After a few seconds Luo Lixi replied to her.

"...Yes. Just like you miss Ji, I was also his high school friend. And I knew him from back then."

"... owh! Then, you are also considered my friend miss Li. You can call me Yanli."

Luo Lixi just nodded at her remark.

"Then, you should call me Lixi too." The women laughed cheerfully as they blended perfectly. Ji Yanli talked about many things from starting social media to the end of makeup things in merely ten minutes. Luo Lixi found her very talkative.

Meanwhile, Sheng Ruming glanced at them for a second. After noticing she was busy talking with Ji Yanli, he turned his mind in the discussion.

"Yanli, what do you think they are talking about. I am just curious." 

In this mere ten minutes, Ji Yanli had already become familiarised with Luo Lixi and found her very pleasant. Luo Lixi was a perfect listener to her. She had hooked her arm around Luo Lixi arm while they walked slowly and talked.

"Oh! They? Let me tell you. The airport where you will land abroad is his friend's. Due to it, we didn't need to get a security check there as we will directly go to his resort. But last month a very big business tycoon was found with dangerous drugs with him and that man was a friend with that idiot Ethan Han. Even if they had caught that smuggler, Ethan Han was charged due to letting people go without a security check."

"I guess there wasn't a need to do such a thing for a friend." Luo Lixi was amused by it.

Just then, she saw a plane on the runway and the plane door opened while the stairs came down.

"Lixi, what are you talking about?" Sheng Ruming came to her with Wang Haixiao. The other man went away.

"Nothing. Just some random stuff." Before Luo Lixi could say 's a thing, Ji Yanli answered him.

Sheng Ruming saw their intertwined hands. He took the bag from her hand and broke their joined hands. 

"Let's go." Luo Lixi bid them farewell as they entered the airplane.
