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

All the men including Luo Qintian turned at him. When the old man stepped aside and gave him space, he went ahead with a lot of confidence.

"Xiao Xiao, hold this." He gave the luxurious, splendid, rows of boxes which were, in reality, the so-called tiffin boxes to Xiao Huang.

The latter twisted his lips when the things were dumped on him

Also, many chickens screamed in that man\'s inner mind. \'Who the hell is he calling Xiao Xiao?! The lung of his!\' 

Just from this name, he remembered a very painful memory of his which was buried into the deep-secluded room of his heart. 

Under the scrutinizing gazes of everyone, Bi Tang put a series of numbers in the lock and the next moment, the door got unlocked with a click sound.

Nobody asked Bi Tang anything as to how he did that. Luo Qintian pushed the door and entered. The others, as per the agreement, stood outside.

As the old man closed the door behind him, he glanced around the room. There weren\'t any people but a very strong smell of freshener assaulted his nose. His old nose twisted and a sneeze made its way out.

"Acchoo~" Luo Qintian covered his mouth.

When he walked in, sounds of flowing water came out. As he glanced past the opened door of the washroom, his eyes narrowed and a look of surprise appeared on his wrinkled face.

Some moments earlier.

"... it\'s a hospital. We can\'t do it here. The bedsheets are already messy enough." 

Sheng Ruming paused when he saw her anxious face. Only then he remembered that they were in a patient\'s room. 

Both of them were slick with sweats and their minds were filled with desire but the place was wrong. 

Sheng Ruming looked down at her face. She turned at him when he stared down.

As soon as his dejected face entered her eyes, she felt an unprecedented kind of guilt. Her brain answered in reflex, "Why don\'t I help you with your…" 

Luo Lixi stopped midway. Sheng Ruming stared at her blankly. He shook his head and muttered, "You are sick now. I can\'t make you work too much."

\'You remember that I am sick?!\' Even though her mind thought so, her lips didn\'t move. 

Some drops of sweat fell from his temple and dropped on her face. It gave her a cool feeling. As if her skin was a hot frying pan while the drops of sweats were pieces of icy water. 

Luo Lixi blinked as she sat up. As her eyes looked down, she felt horrifying. \'The bedsheet! Why is it wet?!\' 

Sheng Ruming saw her worried face and turned his head towards the place below. He smirked as he looked up. Luo Lixi suited behind and stared at the bedsheet.

"What to do?! It\'s so…" Luo Lixi began to think. While thinking, she buttoned clothes. Sheng Ruming sat in a lotus position while his head was supported by his right hand. The man noticed she was looking for something.

"What are you looking for? Let me help you to find." 

"I…" Luo Lixi paused when she saw him bare-chested. She stared at his slightly damped skin.

Sheng Ruming saw her awestruck expression and teased, "Want to touch?" He moved ahead and whispered.

The woman who was busy searching for something stared at his eyes which was causing her heart to beat fast. Her sight went down to his lips.

"Let me… kiss you for the last time." She cupped his face with her two hands and went down to kiss him.

The man\'s eyes bent into beautiful crescent moons. His face laughed while his hands supported her waists. After three minutes, before breaking her kiss, she smooched him a few times. 

"Done?" 

"Yeah." She lucked her lips and nodded. Afterwards, Luo Lixi spoke out her mind, "Bring me some water." 

"Okay." The man stood up and intended to reach out for the water jug which was placed on the table stand beside her. 

But Luo Lixi said, "It\'s empty."

Sheng Ruming turned his head and glanced around. Then he noticed at a corner of the room, some water bottles of 5 liters were placed. 

He went there and brought one for her. Then, he filled one glass and handed her. But instead of drinking, Luo Lixi dropped a little bit of water on the bed and the area was the wet place.

After she was done, she looked up to face him.

"Ahh~ my hand slipped! Ruming, ask someone to change it. How can I stay on a wet bed?!" Her face seemed she was regretting being careless.

Sheng Ruming nodded, "Yes. How can you stay?! You will get sick." Then the man said, "Before calling someone, let\'s clean yourself a little."

Luo Lixi was embarrassed. She glanced at the bedsheet and muttered, "It\'s not enough…" Thus, she poured out more water.

"Stop now. At this pace, you will be showering the bedsheet the next second." He snatched the glass and put that out of her reach.

  "Let\'s go and wash up. Someone might come. Also, you are too wet now. You might get sick because of it…" 

"Ahh! Don\'t say it like that." She clenched her two legs and said anxiously. "Also, don\'t stand there… naked! Put your clothes don\'t."

Sheng Ruming shook his head and the scoundrel mode turned on, "I don\'t want to." 

Luo Lixi gritted her teeth. She went down and put on her cotton slippers. Then, she picked his pants and threw them at him, "Put on or I will throw you out of this room."

"Uhh?! How can your mood change so easily? Don\'t you enjoy my bare body?" Luo Lixi sighed as she turned around and entered the washroom. Sheng Ruming also followed him.

After a while, the room\'s door opened and someone entered. Both of them were busy in the washroom. They didn\'t even bother to lock the gate. 

Sheng Ruming felt someone\'s presence but he was too lazy to turn his attention.
