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

"How dare you?! Five million every day? Even your God won\'t give you such an amount everyday… you dare to play with this Laozi?!" 

The man raised his hand high up, seemingly going to slap her. Ji Yanli snorted and moved her legs as if she would retract behind if he did.

But a firm hand grabbed that man\'s hand. The old man trembled in agitation and shouted, his face turning hideous, "You want to die?! Do you know who I am?!"

Wang Haixiao grabbed his hand tightly and asked back, very uninterested in the matter, "Who? Should I know you? Father of this area?" 

There were some people left on the seacoast. They were in pairs and were staring at them, whispering. Wang Haixiao shrugged his hand away and turned to Ji Yanli. He caught her hand and dragged her away.

The old man shouted behind them, "Don\'t you dare show your faces here again. Or else… hic! This Laozi won\'t spare you!" 

"Got it! Old fool~" Ji Yanli waves her hand. Wang Haixiao began to increase his pace. Soon, they left the seashore.

"Ouch! Ah, Haixiao, something sharp has poked my foot just now!" Ji Yanli shouted and stopped walking. As Wang Haixiao turned to look down, he saw a baby crab was put to death by her.

"Put on your shoes. There can be more sharp objects here." 

"But… I left them there… hic!" Ji Yanli pointed her hands towards the sea. Wang Haixiao glanced towards his car. It was just fifty steps away from their place.

"You drank again?"

"Ah, a little boy gave a bottle earlier. I finished it in one shot. Not much stuff was there…" Ji Yanli staggered while talking. Her waist was caught by him. Then Ji Yanli looked up to him.

Abruptly, she tiptoed and went beside his ear. As she whispered, Wang Haixiao was taken aback, "You looked very handsome back there. I liked it~" 

After saying, she collapsed on him. Wang Haixiao felt overwhelmed by her. He picked her up and carried her in princess style. Then, she was put in his car and they drove away.

From afar, Yan Luhan saw everything. His face lost all the colours. "Luhan…" Mu Jiang put his hand on his shoulder.

But the man whose eyes were cloudy just repeating one scene in his head, \'She kissed him?! She kissed him?! She...."

Yan Luhan turned around and faced Mu Jiang. He asked directly, "Should I kill her?"

Mu Jiang got scared by the man\'s crazy face. He slapped him on his hand and asked back in worry, "Are you out of your mind?! How can you even say such a thing?!"

Yan Luhan turned silent. He turned towards the place where Ji Yanli kissed Wang Haixiao. \'This woman is playing with my head! How can I get affected by her?!\' 

Mu Jiang got scared when Yan Luhan punched a car. He stepped back in confusion.

"Brother Yan, are you okay?" Mu Jiang asked. He was distressed by his bro\'s sudden unexplainable anger.

Yan Luhan got some clarity after his fist bled a little. He hurriedly walked to Mu Jiang\'s car and went inside. "Let\'s go home. I have some matters to take care of…"

Several days later…

Yan Ruomin came to the Sheng Villa. This time she was alone. Her mother had other matters so she couldn\'t make up today.

"Grandma Lin."Yan Ruomin nodded when the old housekeeper came to greet her.

"Miss Yan, madam is waiting for you. Please come with me." Aunt Lin said. Then she turned around and started to walk in. Yan Ruomin clutched her long dress and followed her. 

This time, however, she was guided to the second floor. They came before a room that she knew very clearly.

"She\'s inside." After Aunt Lin said, she turned around and left. Yan Ruomin knocked on the door softly and asked politely, "Aunt, may I come in." 

"Come in." As soon as the door opened, a room which had lots of collections of books appeared. 

Wei Airan turned at Yan Ruomin and chuckled, "Ruomin, you have something to say?" Wei Airan asked while she was busy turning around some pages.

Yan Ruomin walked towards her. Then she said, "I just wanted to come and see aunty. Can\'t I ?!"

"You can." Wei Airan lifted her head and replied. Then the room turned cold as well without any reason. As cold air entered the room, both of them shivered.

Yan Ruomin went there voluntarily and closed the windows. Wei Airan leaned against her sofa and glanced at her back.

"Aunty, Ma has told me to show you this." Yan Ruomin showed something to Wei Airan. Her gaze lit up in that instant.

"A new luxurious hot spring on the outskirts of Ming city?! Why didn\'t I know?!" Wei Airan took the phone and muttered by herself, "You are busy. I guess that\'s why told you~"

Wei Airan shook her head. Then she rubbed her chin and glanced at the book she was holding. Abruptly, she stood up and said loudly, "I will invite all of my close circles to the hot spring." Wei Airan thought and the next second she already started doing so. 

"Let me book the whole place then." When she saw Wei Airan nodding, Yan Ruomin called the hot spring resort to do so but she got an unexpected answer from the other end.

Wei Airan finished the third call when Yan Ruomin hurriedly said, "A man has already booked some rooms of the resort. They said if it\'s okay with us, we can book the resort with them. Just people of two sides will remain then…"

"It\'s okay. As long as my people can enjoy the trip, it will be worth it." 

So, Yan Ruomin didn\'t hesitate and booked all the other free rooms of the resort. Wei Airan even called Sheng Ruming to ask if he would want to go there. But the man didn\'t read the full message and answered "No".
