His mind went blank for a few moments. Then he blurted out,

"Since how many days?

"

"It's been eight days.

" She closed her eyes shut and murmured. But then she abruptly opened her eyes and reassured him,

"It should get over by tonight, I guess.

"

The man suspiciously eyed her. It sounded very absurd. Luo Lixi pressed her lips together before his suspicious eyes. She mumbled out loud,

"After it's over… I will let you do it.

"

The man stiffened. In the first place he didn't come here to have sex with her but now that she willingly put such an offer before him, the man was beyond happy.

Nonetheless, his cold face remained as such and he voiced her out.

"Are you sure? You won't back down from your words?

"

Luo Lixi shook her head and gave him her words,

"I promise you.

" Her face also got serious when her lips uttered those words.

But then her eyes narrowed and shook when he trapped her between his thighs and placed his fingers on her chest. The next second.

Gezzi~ Gezzi~

Her beautiful pink dress was ripped into shreds of clothes. Luo Lixi held his hand and asked,

"You…

"

Sheng Ruming sat her up and lifted her arms. In the second, she was only left with her bra and pants.

Sheng Ruming put his right hand on her neck and rubbed it with the back of his palm,

"I can't let this arrangement get wasted. We won't go down below your hips so… don't worry.

"

His fingers crawled their way behind her head. The man bent down and both of their lips met. Then the two people dropped on the bed together. Luo Lixi wrapped her hands around his neck and dragged him closer.

Both of their upper naked bodies were tightly pressed against each other. Luo Lixi's eyes twinkled as she observed his closed eyes. Then her black odds also smiled and she deepened the kiss.

Only after several hours of workout in bed did they stop and sleep while their bodies hugged each other tightly. After one hour, Sheng Ruming woke up. As he turned towards her, Luo Lixi's frowning face came into view.

"We forgot to wash up. You will catch a cold if you sleep while your skin is drenched with sweats. Let's go to wash up.

"

Sheng Ruming sat up and murmured beside her ear. In return, Luo Lixi pushed him away and turned around to hug a pillow, her eyes didn't even open for a moment.

"

The man didn't bother her and left the bed. After several minutes, he was seen wiping her body.

He took a wet towel and wiped her from head to toe while she was busy working in her dreamland. When he removed her pants, his eyes subconsciously ignored her pelvis.

"Just look at you. Getting such a royal service from me… where will you find such a good man like me?

" Sheng Ruming spoke while he went up and wiping her face.

However, Luo Lixi slowly opened her groggy eyes and smiled,

"There is one before me. Why would I need to find another?

"

Even though the things she told were sweet, her face had a smug expression. Sheng Ruming's lips twisted while he rubbed her lips gently.

"If you don't feel like sleeping anymore, come with me. I will wash you up.

" Hearing him, she immediately closed her eyes and showed him her drenched back.

"Oh, you…

" The man went up and forcefully kissed her lips. After he went away, she wrapped herself with the blanket and turned into a silk cocoon.

When Sheng Ruming came and saw this, a smile found its way on his face. He crawled under her blanket and trapped her.

The lady however was too lazy to say anything. So in thirty minutes, they twisted and turned a lot and finally, they found a comfortable position. Both of them cuddled and went to sleep while the red lights extinguished one after another and slowly the room was engulfed in darkness.

… …

"Grandfather, take my hands. You will accompany me in this road of mine, won't you?

"

Luo Qintian saw as his beloved granddaughter showed her hand to him. The man smiled and reached out for the pale hand but instead of a warm hand, he felt warm liquid.

When he turned his head below, he got the scare of his lifetime. The image of Luo Lixi's hand shattered into pieces while he was drenched with dark red blood which was glaring to the eye.

"Xixi!

" The old man screamed however the surroundings were silent and it was suffocating. Finally, his heart felt as if all the air had left.

… …

In the late hours of the night, Luo Qintian was jolted awake from his nightmare. He panted for air frantically.

"My inhaler…

" The man glanced around while he clutched his chest. But he didn't find it.

In a panic, his hand hurriedly pressed on the switch beside his bed.

Soon hurried sounds of footsteps were heard. In less than thirty seconds, his room's door burst open and many people barged in.

"Elder Luo!

"

"Elder, are you okay?

"

"Old master!

" Aunt Zhu was the first to notice his panting state. She went up to the bedside to take the medicine box of his and took out the inhaler.

"Here…

" With her help, Luo Qintian finally got back his breath. Bi Tang was very anxious. He went beside the old lady and whispered,

"Should I call an ambulance?

"

However, Luo Qintian waved his hand and denied them. Housekeeper Zhu understood what he was worried about and murmured as her eyes were fixed on him,

"You all should leave. I will call you if there is something wrong or urgent.

"

So others left one after another. Bi Tang was the last to leave. He shot the old man a last glance as he exited the room and closed the door without making any noise.

After thinking for a while, he eventually called the family doctor and asked the man to come as soon as possible.
