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

The intimate ones as well as the ones where she had forcefully kissed him while he was smiling happily. Sheng Ruming scrolled through every single one and stopped on a particular image. 

In that, he was hugging her tightly and biting her earlobe. The lady in it was blushing but had a sweet smile. 

"Are you my lover?" Sheng Ruming lifted his eyes from the screen and asked Luo Lixi.

"Lover… actually, you have sent gifts to my home and wanted to meet my family to ask me for marriage. I had to leave the country for a week. You didn't call me at that moment and when I came back… Sniff!" 

Luo Lixi went ahead and hugged him tightly. This time, tears gushed out naturally as she rubbed her chin on his neck. 

"Hubby, it's good that you are fine. Even if you have forgotten everything, it's fine too. We will go to the best hospital for your treatment. Hopefully, you will be fine!" 

Sheng Ruming also felt emotional by Luo Lixi's words. He also hugged her carefully, his heart reacting on its own, throbbing abnormally as if it wanted her to hear it and he murmured, "I... didn't sleep with that woman."

Luo Lixi was taken aback by the sudden answer. She was happy that he didn't become a stranger to her. 

With excitement, she pushed him on the bed again and mewled like a seductress, "Hubby~ I have missed you a lot~ Come, give me a kiss~" 

However, she didn't wait for him and assaulted him again. The man hugged her with stiff hands and responded shakily. 

His shaky moments got dominated as she cups his cheeks with one hand and his neck with passion and deepens the kiss.

Luo Lixi had a sneaky smile till the end! Being kissed like that, Sheng Ruming felt his heart going erratic. A thought popped in his mind as he suddenly pushed Luo Lixi away. 

"Ah!" Luo Lixi was startled by him and looked back in confusion. 

Sheng Ruming stood up from his seat and looked down on her coldly. Luo Lixi didn't know what to say and touched her lips subconsciously. 

Then, she looked up and murmured sadly, "Didn't you… enjoy it?!"

"Miss, it must be fate that I have forgotten you." Sheng Ruming said as he stared at her eyes. 

Luo Lixi hurriedly left the bed and looked straight into his eyes. Her palms began to itch just by his cold tone. 

"What do you mean by this?!" Luo Lixi asked coldly.

"Any kind of love or heavy emotional entanglement is bad for any businessman. Not to say, for me. It's just a waste of time..." Sheng Ruming smiled heartily as if he was relieved from a heavy burden.

But his words were too much for Luo Lixi to handle. She looked straight into his eyes and asked with concern, "Did you hit your head somewhere? Is it hurting? Tell me!"

"..." Sheng Ruming stiffened when Luo Lixi suddenly got too close and stared at his forehead. 

"Saying such shitty words of wisdom, you must have hurt badly!" After saying that, Luo Lixi grabbed his head and began to shake heavily. 

How could he be saying that when he was the one after her from the beginning and now that she was doing the same for him...all he was thinking was about his business?!

How could she not be suspicious of his head then!

Not only that, she went behind and checked his head, neck and other things to find any possible severe injuries!

Sheng Ruming felt very uncomfortable and pushed her away. At the same time, he showed her his palm and spoke out coldly. 

"Miss, in short, I don't want to keep our relationship! Go back!" 

Luo Lixi froze in her place and abruptly caught his hand. She became very serious as she stared into his eyes. 

"I can't!" Luo Lixi said firmly. 

Sheng Ruming's eyes changed colours as disdain appeared on his face. He grabbed her chin tightly and asked mockingly, "Why? Are you cripple? Or need help?" 

Luo Lixi got terrifying pressure from Sheng Ruming. She also didn't dare to look straight into his eyes. Noticing her evading eyes, he put pressure on his fingers. 

"Why?" The man asked enormously. 

'Why? Isn't it because I can't let others eat your tofu?!' However, Luo Lixi knew that if she dared to say that on his face, her fate would be the same as Yan Ruomin. 

"It's… I, it's because…" Luo Lixi began to stutter. Her brain was working overdrive to find a reasonable excuse!

The smile on Sheng Ruming's face was vanishing. The man clutched her chin so tightly that she felt it would break any minute. 

Luo Lixi felt that at that moment, in Sheng Ruming's eyes, both she and Yan Ruomin didn't have any difference. 

Suddenly, an idea came to Luo Lixi's head. Sheng Ruming was amused when he saw the sullen face becoming bright in a split moment. 

"It's because… I am pregnant!" Luo Lixi shouted. 

"..." Sheng Ruming fingers which were grabbing her chin froze. He rubbed her chin and stared straight into her eyes as if to see lies. 

But Luo Lixi had hardened her heart and glared back. At the same time, she forced out some drops of tears and sniffed 'hard'. 

"Hubby, I am… cough! Pregnant! Even if you have forgotten this Xixi, you can't ignore our child!" While Luo Lixi was telling him with a pitiful expression, her heart was going astray. 

Badump! Badump!

'God! Don't let him have the idea of doing a DNA test! I will be screwed!' Fear and anxiousness gripped Luo Lixi's heart as she hugged him suddenly. Just that, she couldn't tolerate his scrutinizing eyes and decided to hide!

Sheng Ruming, however, didn't let her hide. He pushed her away gently and glanced at her abdomen. Instinctively, Luo Lixi hid her belly and shouted, "Don't you dare deny!" 

"Oh? A baby?" Sheng Ruming stepped ahead while smiling evilly. 

"Y, yes! Baby! Our baby!" Luo Lixi replied nervously and avoided his eyes. For a moment, she regretted telling the lie. 

"If that's the case, why are you retreating? Are you guilty of something?" Sheng Ruming asked as he took a huge step. In return, Luo Lixi retreated two more steps!

"Whose guilty?! Let him come…" Luo Lixi put up a heroic front and suddenly stepped ahead. For this reason, both of them stood very close to each other. 

Sheng Ruming caught her hand and then looked at her belly. In the next second, he poked her stomach and said with a thoughtful expression. 

"It's plainer than an aeroplane's runway. How can a child be here? Enough of joking!" Sheng Ruming's face became cold as he began to drag her away and spoke, "You aren't my assistant. So there is no need to stay here any longer!"

"Ah! No! I won't leave!" Luo Lixi clutched the doorframe tightly and looked at him. 

At the same time, she spoke out desperately, "I am not… joking! Yes, not joking! Let's stay together for some months. If you see that I am lying, I will… leave!"

Sheng Ruming, who was going to close the door on her face, paused. He recalled the pictures of them and then hesitated. Luo Lixi took this chance and went beside him. 

With a voice that a woman uses to coax a child, she began to explain, "Let me stay with you and take care of you. If needed, I can be your secretary! Memory loss isn't a small matter. I will accompany you…"

"No need." Sheng Ruming turned to her and said indifferently. 

"Don't say that! If you push me away, one day you will regret it." Luo Lixi murmured with red eyes. The man saw her sad face and felt a pang in his heart. 

But he began to hate that feeling. To him, that feeling was like a weakness, a weakness he would love to cast away. A lethal poison he should get rid of. And naturally, he knew that the source of it was none other than the woman in front of him. 

Even though he thought that, if someday, he got back his memory and regretted it, he still wanted to push her away for some reason. 

There was a kind of emotion he felt when he first saw her. It was like extreme pain. So he labelled her as someone who had done something to make him sad! Not to say, when she said she was pregnant, 'lying' was written all over her face! 

"Ruming… let's stay together… Yah! What are you doing?!" Luo Lixi shirked and asked with surprise. The man had suddenly grabbed her waist and lifted her. Then, while being carried up in a princess style, Luo Lixi was taken out from the CEO's office room. 

Luo Lixi encircled her arms around his neck and asked hesitantly as she saw him walking towards the lift, "Where are we going?" 

"To the hospital.." Sheng Ruming replied matter of factly.
