"Let's go.

" Sheng Ruming came before Luo Lixi and told her. Thus, she hurriedly put her phone in the purse and walked out from behind the desk.

nAfterwards, Sheng Ruming started to walk first and Luo Lixi quietly followed his steps.

nAfter the two people had walked out, the whole company became empty except the guards outside.

nLuo Lixi saw his back but didn't find the words to say. The man opened the black car's front door for her and said,

"Get inside.

"

n

"But there is another car…

" At Sheng Ruming's cold stare, she gulped down her saliva and obediently went to sit on the front passenger seat. Then, at a lightning speed, she buckled the safety belt.

nSheng Ruming walked around and opened the other front door and directly sat on the driver's seat.

n

"Ruming, today, I, we…

"

n

"It's alright. I will manage everything. You will get what you want.

" The man stared ahead while starting the engine.

nLuo Lixi moved her head and stared at the front like him. After the car started to drive, it crossed many roads and junctions.

nThe lady felt a bit uneasy and turned at Sheng Ruming but his full concentration was on the front line.

n

"Thanks.

" As the word left her mouth, Sheng Ruming took a glance from the rearview mirror.

n

"For what?

"

nLuo Lixi fiddled with her fingers and confessed again,

"Thanks for all the things you have done for me.

"

nSheng Ruming stepped on the brake paddle and stopped the car in the middle of the road. So the cars behind them nearly crushed against them.

n

"Didn't I say not to say 'thanks' to me ever again?! Whenever you say this, I feel like throwing you on the bed and...

" Sheng Ruming's stoic expression made her guilty and shy at the same time but those were the heartfelt feelings of hers.

nAfter he said that she wanted to speak but the sounds of horns and shouts made them aware of the situation they were currently in. Luo Lixi urged him,

"Hurry! Move the car.

"

nThe man didn't move even a second. Only when she placed her hand on the steering wheel and moved it, Sheng Ruming came to his senses and took control of the situation.

nAfter a little more than one hour, Sheng Ruming reached the penthouse. He stepped out first and then dragged Luo Lixi upwards.

n*** ***

n

"Is that really Sheng Ruming?! Why is he dragging a woman to the building?

"

nYan Ruomin was currently on the tenth floor of a building that faced the building Sheng Ruming's penthouse was. She was waiting to see the man for a long time and finally saw him.

nBut never had she expected him to drag a person let alone a young lady of the same age as him!

nTo confirm if the man was really him, Yan Ruomin wiped her eyes and refocused. But the two people had already entered the building.

n

"I must have mistaken him as someone else.

" Even she was having difficulty believing those words.

nYan Ruomin moved her body from the window and placed the binoculars at a random place. Then, she walked around the room but didn't find anything in mind to do.

n

"Ahhhh! I am becoming crazy! Was that Sheng Ruming? Why would he drag a lady in there?

" Yan Ruomin clutched her head and shouted aloud. Then she abruptly stopped fretting about the matter.

nAfter a few minutes, she plopped on a sofa and started to make out a plan to show up in front of Sheng Ruming without making him suspicious of her. Her goal was to get close to him.

n

"Didn't some say he has come here to get treatment or something like that? How about I take care of him during this time?...

" Yan Ruomin placed both of her hands on her face and giggled.

nJust the thought that the man would definitely like a caring and gentle person like her, made her happy.

nThen, in her delusional fantasies, Yan Ruomin began to draw many ways to show herself before Sheng Ruming like it was a pure coincidence of luck.

n*** ***

nAfter Sheng Ruming brought her to the penthouse, he was at a loss of words. Luo Lixi thought something big must have happened for him to drag her here like that.

nLuo Lixi saw as he dropped her hand and turned his back on her and walked towards their bedroom. Then it was closed with a loud bang. The sound of it reverberated in the whole penthouse.

nLuo Lixi could only give a wry smile and shook her head. She went to the sofa and sat down.

n

"Why is it giving me a sour feeling?

" Luo Lixi thought as she rubbed her shoulder. Then she gently knocked at it and felt the sensation again. 'Ah! Am I having health issues now?!'

nLuo Lixi touched her face and pinched softly. Then she thought it would be best if all her problems could fly away.

nRight then, the bedroom door opened and Sheng Ruming came out in a nightgown.

nLuo Lixi was startled and moved her hand down when he entered the living room.

n

"What were you thinking that you are so worked up to cover?

" Sheng Ruming walked towards her and asked.

n

"Nothing.

" Luo Lixi hurriedly stood up and went inside the bedroom. After she locked the door, her back touched it as she leaned against it. 'Damn it. Why are you blushing again?!' Luo Lixi patted her cheeks and entered the inner area of the room.

nOutside, Sheng Ruming stared at the closed door for some reason. His mood turned downcast when he remembered he had called the renowned hospital and successfully got an appointment for her.

n'Lixi, you better not turn me down again. I will… count on your promise to me…' Sheng Ruming threw his head back and fixed his eyes on the nearby chandelier.

nThe crystal clear glittering parts of it made him remember something.

nSheng Ruming hurriedly took out his phone and dialed his mother's number. It wasn't picked up at first. Then in five seconds, it was returned by his mother.

n

"My child, you finally remember to call this old woman…

" Wei Airan wiped her unexistence tears as she spoke.

nSheng Haotin just took a single glance and then turned away. He didn't have any single interest to see the drama unfolding before him.

nHe took the newspaper and went out to read it quietly.

n

"Ma, I had nearly forgotten then. How is your health and father's?

" The man asked as he relaxed his body and crossed his legs. The cold tone didn't go away even when he was talking with his mother.

n

"We are good, good! How about you? How are things going there?

" Wei Airan carefully asked. After all, to her, this was a sensitive matter to Sheng Ruming.

n

"All is good.

" Sheng Ruming replied as he turned at the bedroom door for the second time. He felt like all his plans became trash when the lady had put forward her so-called conditions.

nSheng Ruming ran his fingers through his dry hair and became distressed again. 'Bad luck of mine!'

n

"Good. No, it's more than good. My son, make sure to be careful during this time. Also, have you hired any person to take care of yourself?

" Wei Airan asked and walked out from the villa.

nFrom afar, she saw, Sheng Haotin was sitting on the outdoor furniture and gave his full attention to the words of the lifeless paper.

n

"Hmm.

" Sheng Ruming didn't answer, rather just hummed. To the other person, it was a sign of affirmative.

nWei Airan felt more relaxed when she heard. She turned around and entered the villa again.

nThis time, Aunt Huo knew it was an overseas call from young master Sheng Ruming just by looking at Wei Airan's cheerful facial expressions.

n

"Always take care of yourself there. Also, tell me anything if you need….

" Wei Airan hastily closed her lips. A line nearly slipped away earlier, 'You can just say and I will go there myself later.'

n

"I am not a child who knows nothing. Also, Ma, you should worry about your health instead...

" Sheng Ruming suddenly stopped when he realized something.

nLike how his mother is to him, Luo Lixi's grandfather is to her. It was really immoral of him restricting Luo Lixi from meeting her grandfather.

n'After the things at hand get finished here, I will personally bring her to the old man.' Sheng Ruming thought as he closed his eyes.

nWei Airan waited to hear more of him yet silence was followed by the two people. She raised her phone and saw that it was still connected.

n

"Xiao Ru, son, are you still there?

"

nSheng Ruming heard her voice and took a deep breath. Then he answered,

"Ma, it seems I will just need a few more months. Then, I will come back to the country.

" The corner of his lips stood up, saying,

"So, wait for me.

"

n

"Of course. I will!

" Wei Airan had the tendency to shout at the end but kept it down. Now, she finally believed that her son's treatments must be going great.

nThe door of the bedroom was opened and Luo Lixi walked out from it. She was wearing the matching nightgown with Sheng Ruming.

nWhen the man saw her, he raised his left hand and gestured to her to come towards him.

nLuo Lixi did as she was told to. When she went there, she slowly sat down beside Sheng Ruming and waited for him.

n

"Ma, I have work to do. Let's talk later. Also, take good care of your health.

" After saying that much the man cut the line
