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

"What will you know from that foreign place?! Humph!" Luo Qintian snorted as he moved his sight away. Luo Lixi pursed her lips and then glanced back. 

Kong Pipi smiled awkwardly and turned to Luo Lixiang, "I better go now."

Luo Lixiang didn't say anything as he saw her leaving. Finally, Luo Lixi felt relieved and turned ahead. She dragged a chair and sat down on it with a thumb. 

"You called us here for a meeting? What's the matter?" Luo Lixi inquired as she glanced at the old man. The latter smiled and stood up. Thus Luo Lixi stood up as well and helped him to wear the outer suit. 

When Luo Baiyun was going to sit down, Luo Qintian glared at him and spoke out angrily, "Why are you sitting now? We will go to the meeting room!"

"Father, you!" Luo Baiyun was speechless and felt numb as he was scolded in front of his children.. Luo Lixi couldn't help but smile at that. After Luo Qintian walked out, the other three followed him closely. 

As soon as he pushed the meeting room's door, the three were taken aback. In the room, the three elders, Luo Qintian's friends, were present. Luo Lixiang had a bad premonition as he spotted Luo Qintian's lawyer in the meeting room. 

His eyes darkened and turned towards Luo Lixi. The latter had a startled expression as she realised the thing she had missed in the last life was going to happen in this life. 

'Grandfather, why didn't you discuss with me first?!' While thinking, she saw Luo Qintian walk to the chief position. 

Besides his two sides, three seats were empty. He turned to Luo Lixi and motioned to the right position.

"Sit here."

Luo Lixi obediently walked to the seat. But before sitting down, she slightly bowed towards the other people and said, "Grandfathers, I am Luo Lixi. It's been a long time since I have met you all. How are you?..."

Luo Lixi's words were cut off as Luo Qintian made her sit down and then acted innocent. The other three elders shook their heads at his childish behaviour. 

"Poor child. She's unlucky to have a grandfather like him!" At Elder Bin's words, Luo Qintian only squinted his eyes. When Luo Lixi stared at him, he smiled. 

"Don't mind him. He's just lamenting about his son's incompetence to have a daughter." The old man murmured with a smirk. 

"Oh! I doubt…" Luo Lixi was blatant and directly said that. Luo Qintian was in a good mood and did not mind her.

As soon as Luo Baiyun and Luo Lixiang sat down, Lawyer Bo stood up and went beside Luo Qintian. 

When the old man made himself comfortable on the seat, he nudged his glasses and glanced around the room. His eyes stayed an extra second on Luo Lixiang. 

"According to the new will, Miss Luo Lixi, the direct granddaughter of Mr Luo Qintian, will get 70% of the properties owned by Mr Luo Qintian. Which includes Luo Corporation as well…"

As soon as Luo Lixiang heard Lawyer Bo, his knuckles turned white by the sheer force he used. His eyes became reddish in suppressed anger. Luo Lixi noticed everything but acted as if she was only listening to Lawyer Bo's words. 

Luo Baiyun grabbed Luo Lixiang's shaking hand. When the latter turned to him, he shook his head gently. At that, the young man calmed down a bit. 

Luo Qintian turned to Luo Lixi and asked gravely, "You have any problem with my decision?"

"Um… no." Luo Lixi shook her head, making the old man pleased. Luo Baiyun sighed heavily as he glanced at his son. The latter stared at the table and didn't say anything. 

Luo Qintian turned to Luo Lixiang this time and asked, "Xiao Xiang, do you have any objection?"

"...No, grandfather." The man shook his head after a while because he knew that his opinion wouldn't do anything well. The elders glanced at each other with a knowing look. 

Lawyer Bo placed a file in front of Luo Lixi and whispered, "Please sign here."

Luo Lixi glanced down on it yet her eyes began to twist violently. Because besides the old man's shares, she also saw the document of the elders' shares. 

When her eyes drifted towards the elders, the three old people also looked at her simultaneously, only to see them smiling.

"..." Luo Lixi didn't say anything and began to sign the papers. Lawyer Bo instructed her where to do so and age did quietly. 

After she was done, Luo Qintian turned to Luo Lixiang and said, "Xiao Xiang, I hope that you will help Luo Lixi to manage the company like before."

"Don't worry grandfather. I will do my best." While speaking, he showed an innocent face. Luo Lixi clenched her pen when she witnessed the familiar expression.

'Was agreeing with grandfather wrong?' Luo Lixi pondered as she didn't want to see the bad things of her past life happen again. 

Luo Qintian became quiet while looking at the obedient man. He guessed that the young man would object and make scenes because of his actions…

'Whatever I did was the best for the family.' Luo Qintian was adamant about his decision and didn't think something was wrong with it. 

However, Luo Baiyun had a grave expression as he looked up at his father. Finally, he realised why the young man went astray in his last life and was exiled from the family. He knew better than anyone the ruthlessness that runs in the family.

"Xixi, you better don't go abroad. Shift everything in the country." Luo Qintian said authoritatively. She nodded as she realised that it wouldn't be easy to leave anymore. 

After they were done, he stood up and spoke out happily, "Now that the thing is done, we shall proceed to the banquet I have arranged for us."

However, when they arrived at the appointed place of the banquet, Luo Lixi didn't know what to do with the old man anymore.
