The man glanced at Luo Lixi suspiciously and muttered deeply,

"It's better be.

"

"Cough!

" Luo Lixi's cheeks turned a little red. She avoided his eyes and fanned herself.

As she glanced around, she didn't find anything on her mind to talk for the purpose of changing the topic. 'What in the world I just imagined?! It's so shocking that I feel like dying!'

Luo Lixi couldn't help her blush from crawling towards her neck. Even if she had turned her face away, this didn't stop the man from noticing her exposed neck.

When the white skin was dyed with redness entered his eyes, Sheng Ruming hooked his lips upwards.

Luo Lixi felt his obvious gaze. She couldn't remain calm and murmured,

"Ah, Ruming, the weather… Today is so hot…

"

"Heh! In the horizon, you can see the trace of fog!

" Sheng Ruming sat sideways and placed his hand on the back of the seat and prompted his head by it.

As the man mocked her for lying, his right hand couldn't stay still and caressed her cheeks. Luo Lixi moved her waist and avoided his touch.

"Need my help? I can see that you are turned on.

" Sheng Ruming's words only made her frown. She swiftly turned towards him and refuted aggressively.

"Don't think shameless things early in the morning! I'm saying it's hot so definitely it's very hot!

" Her eyes rolled towards the man who was putting on a smile and gazed at her deeply. 'Is he looking down on me?!'

Luo Lixi felt uneasy because of Sheng Ruming's strange look. The man used his finger to draw circles on her bare necks.

Luo Lixi didn't stop him and let him touch her. It seemed he got the courage and his fingers went further down.

"Don't mess up. My grandfather or your mother may come back in a moment. Don't get me messed up before them…

"

"Fine.

" Reluctantly, he took back his hand and asked eagerly,

"Next weekend?

"

"No.

" Luo Lixi immediately understood what he was talking about and denied it outright.

"Then, the next next weekend?

" He got close to her and whispered seductively.

"N.. no!

" Luo Lixi was flustered when he made an enchanting face to talk to her. Every time, she was startled, Sheng Ruming felt as if he had won in snatching a big project from his enemy companies.

The man grabbed her head and plastered his lips as he whispered,

"Then… the next next next…

"

"Ah, no~

" Luo Lixi grabbed his hands to move away but Sheng Ruming grabbed her tightly and bit down hard on her right ear.

"AHHH!

"

She felt both a tingling and vague pain from her sensitive ear. Her eyes became cloudy in an instant while she felt her legs going soft.

"You should have thought about the consequences when you were saying a row of 'No's. After not watching me for some days, it's as if your wings have grown too much, huh?

" Sheng Ruming nibbled her earlobe so much that Luo Lixi felt a jolting shock throughout her spine.

"I, I just… Oh?

" Luo Lixi's eyes went round in bewilderment when he removed her hair from the back of her neck and bit down hard.

Luo Lixi was so stiff that she didn't move. After biting, Sheng Ruming licked her skin which was a bit salty and creamy.

But when he was retracting, both of them felt a pair of eyes staring at them. When he turned towards the source, his eyes noticed a servant who was standing by the entrance of the tent, holding a tray in her hand.

"Who's there?

" His dissatisfied tone travelled throughout the whole area.

"Ah! Me.. me? I'm just a worker. Old Master has told me to bring something for you two. So…

"

Hearing this, Luo Lixi couldn't remain calm.

"Grandfather, did he come back earlier?

"

"Yes, miss.

"

Luo Lixi felt the world was too cruel and time was the worst thing right then and there.

"Why didn't you say that earlier?

"

She wanted to push Sheng Ruming away and stood up but the man warned her with his eyes and hugged her tightly.

Luo Lixi squinted her eyes and whispered angrily,

"Look, what have you done?! He has seen us!

"

"So what?! If you are so dense about this then will you believe me that I can kiss and hug you before a live channel of my social media?

"

"You dare?!

"

"Heh, I see what you want right there!

"

The maid hurriedly went inside and out down the tray she had brought. It had all kinds of snacks and fruits Luo Lixi liked.

It was obvious that Luo Qintian had prepared this only for her. Sheng Ruming just needed one glance to understand this.

When the maid was going back, his voice came from behind,

"Make sure no one can come near for one hour of this tent. Also. Close the entrance.

"

"You!

" Luo Lixi whispered angrily.

"Yes.

" The maid immediately went outside and untied the front of the tent which was bound to one side. Then she let the two parts of the front fall down.

Like that, no one from outside could see what was happening inside. As soon as the white fabric blocked the front, Sheng Ruming pinned her down.

"... We have made enough gathering for our two families to have a good bond. Next time, we won't bring them with us, okay?

" Sheng Ruming raised her chin and asked.

"...

" Luo Lixi was silent the whole time. The man narrowed his eyes and asked dangerously,

"What?! Is my Lixi her grandfather's obedient little thing?!

"

"... From the first time, it was you who wanted me to bring him in every meeting. Do you think my grandfather wanted to come every time?

" Luo Lixi scoffed on his face.

"Look at your father, he didn't even come today. Do you think I am blind and can't see the tension between the two old men?!

"

Sheng Ruming paused. He stared down at her face which was ready to go into a full-blown battle mode at any time. He moved his eyes to her lips and noticed that she was biting her lips on awkwardness.

"... I underestimated you.

"

"?

" Luo Lixi was puzzled by his sudden statement.

"You have learned to complain now.

"

Hearing his grave voice, her heart dropped. Luo Lixi felt uneasy all over.

'Does he think I'm like those women who complain about their in law's to her husband behind their back?!' Just thinking this, Luo Lixi cringed in disgust, 'Ridiculous!'

She mumbled,

"I didn't complain. I just…

"

Sheng Ruming took pleasure when she was desperately trying to explain. But he had the mood to tease her more, he didn't let his expression show and asked,

"You didn't? Whom are you trying to fool?

"

Luo Lixi felt so stifled that she wanted to run away from his questions. Sheng Ruming was abruptly pushed as he fell to the ground,

"Hey! Did you push me just now?!

"

"... Whatever you think!

" Luo Lixi abruptly stood up and tidied up her dress. When she wanted to walk out, Sheng Ruming moved one step ahead and grabbed her ankle.

In one move, he made her drop on the sofa. Luo Lixi felt as if her world was spinning. The next moment, Sheng Ruming jumped on her.

" 'Whatever you think'? If in the future, I misunderstood you like this, will you also say this and run away?!

"

Luo Lixi felt her scalp go numb from his extremely dangerous eyes.

"Ah, I…

"

'Why did his thoughts come to this?!'

Sheng Ruming hugged her tightly and muttered in a low voice,

"Don't just run away whenever you want. I don't like this!

"

Luo Lixi looked eye to eye and spoke aloud,

"Who was running away?!

"

Sheng Ruming chuckled and grabbed her hand. In the next second, Luo Lixi found her on his lap. Her black eyes blinked as she noticed the man staring at her intensely.

When he approached her, she asked,

" What is your opinion on the government's project I just talked about earlier?

"

"You telling me this over and over again and talking about competing…

" Sheng Ruming went into deep thought,

"Perhaps you want the information of my company about this project.

"

The more Sheng Ruming thought, the more he was convinced that it might be the case.

"It's understanding that you have joined the company in recent times and aren't very experienced. As long as you say, I will help you. If needed, I will give you the file of my planning and draft to you…

"

Luo Lixi stared at him and her gaze said as if she was staring at a fool.

"Hey, do you know what you are saying? The CEO himself is trying to share the confidential information… it's so absurd!

"

Luo Lixi tsked as she saw the man chuckling. Sheng Ruming pinched her cheeks,

"It's a little favour I can do. Forget it if you don't want it.

"

Luo Lixi stared at the face shown before her and hurriedly nodded,

"Yes. Forget it.

"
