She slowly made her way towards the small wardrobe placed at a corner.
Ji Yanli scanned it from side to side.
"He didn't throw it till this day?! Good boy…" Ji Yanli opened one drawer and found her dresses.
Those few pieces were very old and brought back some of her forgotten memories. She took out one and wore it in a few seconds.
When Ji Yanli walked out, she stood before him and showed him around, "Look, this fits so perfectly even after so many years."
Wang Haixiao's eyes bent into crescent moons as he nodded, "Yes…"

Luo Lixi stared at the clock. Her eyes were too widely open to fall asleep. She tossed and turned on the bed but couldn't slip in dreamland.
"Agh! What is happening?" She sat up on the bed and rubbed her throbbing temple. "Off!"
After standing up, she roamed around the room. Then, she dropped on a sofa and clutched her head tightly with her two pale hands.
"That man doesn't fail to give me a lot of headache. Humph! Now I am having insomnia! All thanks to him!"
Luo Lixi stared at her door and angrily whispered. She crossed her legs and shook them slightly and stared at the clock.
In the whole room, this thing's sound echoed a lot.
Even after one hour, her insomnia stayed and it was only 3 am.
"I might as well don't sleep anymore!"
After Luo Lixi freshened up, she walked out of the room and strolled on the corridor.
"Miss, what are you doing here? It's so late..." Suddenly a voice from behind called out.
"Ah! Xiao Huang, it's you." Luo Lixi saw as the man inched towards her with a stoned face.
Luo Lixi glanced at him and then hesitantly asked, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"I always sleep during daytime. Moreover, it's even difficult now that we are here, an unknown place…" Xiao Huang stood straight and gazed at her eyes who were eyeing him. "On top of that, boss is also awake."
"He too?!" Luo Lixi asked in confusion.
"Yes. If you want, you can go to him. I just came out from his room."
"Alright then. I thought everyone was sleeping except me. Yet… " She shook her head and started to walk towards his room.
There she saw bodyguards of Sheng Ruming who were standing outside of his room, guarding the room.
'Do they have to be so obvious? Tch! Grandfather will surely get infuriated if he witnesses this scene!'
Luo Lixi got nearer. The bodyguards already took notice of her a long time ago. They bowed slightly as she entered his room.
"Even in this late night, what are you doing?" She asked when the silhouette of the man entered her vision.
Sheng Ruming was with his laptop on his lap and continuously typing on it rapidly. When he heard her, he stopped typing and looked up.
"What? Missing me so much that you can't fall asleep?"
Luo Lixi snorted at his sarcastic remark.
"You can only dream. Missing you? Instead it's because you give me too many problems and I can't close my eyes!."
Sheng Ruming just smiled and started to work on his laptop, not minding her anymore. She walked beside him and saw it was just some codes.
Thus, she didn't make any noise and sat beside him, staring at his laptop.
After ten minutes, Sheng Ruming finally stopped working as his finger pressed the enter key. Then he swiftly closed the laptop and placed it beside him.
"Don't feel pressured. Everything is good." He patted her cheek softly.
"For you, everything is good but for me it isn't." She crossed her hands and said with depression, "Grandfather didn't ask for me afterwards. Just what did you say to make him angry?!"
The man stared at her face and uttered a minute later, "I can tell you but you can't get angry…"
She raised an eye when he said that. "Now I am really curious."
Sheng Ruming coughed slightly and moved his head beside her ear. He murmured something and the next second he dashed backwards and made a large distance between them.
"Ah! OH MY GOD!!! Really!" She covered her mouth with her two hands and stared at him in disbelief.
"I just said that to…"
"Stop! I should have guessed when grandfather asked me if we slept in the same room or not." Luo Lixi fisted her hands and took a pillow from the bed and threw it towards him, "You shameless man! How can you lie… no, how can you even say something like this to an elder?!"
"I just wanted him to give consent to our relationship." Sheng Ruming moved backwards as he caught the pillow and put it on the bed.
"For this reason, you said something so ridiculous?! Ugh!" Luo Lixi put one hand on her hip and the other on her temple in helplessness.
Sheng Ruming went towards her and said, "I just wanted him to agree as soon as possible. What if he doesn't agree?"
Luo Lixi lifted her head and stared at him angrily, "You might as well have said I am pregnant!"
Sheng Ruming put a hand on his chin and answered deeply, "A good idea."
Luo Lixi's mouth turned into 'O' when he said that. But the man made her speechless by his next line.
"My love, we have to work hard to turn it into reality, you know…"
"Just look at your expression now. So perverted!" Luo Lixi dropped her butt on the bed and covered her face, "What will he think of me?! How will I face him from now on?"
Luo Lixi felt like she should make a grave and jump in it with this culprit to end their lives then and there.
"Don't be ashamed. I am sure the old man will be happy if he hears he will see his great grand-baby's face soon."
"Move your face away!" Luo Lixi turned his face to the other side when he inched towards her face. "I am so angry that…"
"... that you want to eat me?" Sheng Ruming hugged her closely, "Do so if you want. I am ready all the time."
"Ugh!" Luo Lixi felt like her ears became over polluted when she heard that.
"Look, you came in the deep night to meet me. You must have become used to my body's warmth while sleeping." Sheng Ruming smiled broadly.
Luo Lixi thought deeply and nodded, "It can be true."
"Then, sleep here with me."
"I can't. Do you want people to know?! There is already a ridiculous rumour about me in the circle. I don't want another to start."
Luo Lixi pushed him another way but he dragged her more towards him and whispered in amusement, "Hmm, this time it'll be entertaining. Miss Luo came back to her home after many months and she brought a handsome and rich man with her. She even slept in the same room with him… sounds good."
'This man, Oh!' She felt it was a bad decision to come here with him in the first place.
In the end, both of them stayed awake and chatted the whole time.
Sheng Ruming teased her while she became hyper everytime.
In the end, both of them decided to exit the room.
"Tell them not to be so obvious when guarding you. It will only fuel grandfather's displeasure."
"I know." Sheng Ruming adjusted her shawl and both of them went out from the mansion.
"It's only 5am. Sun yet to come out."
"Hmm, let's wait for the sunrise. We shall see the first sunrise after our return. It will be a good memory..."
Luo Lixi nodded her head and smiled slightly, "Alright."
Thus, both of them ended up walking on the ground and later witnessed the sunrise together.
The weather was chilly but the cold air felt comfortable. Luo Lixi took a big breath and stared at the rising sun.
"Finally…" She joined her hands together and stared in the east sky. When she turned around and looked up in the direction of her grandfather's room, she saw the old man was looking down.
"..."
Luo Lixi was flustered for a moment but then she smiled sweetly and waved at him.
Sheng Ruming turned at her but she was quick enough to compose herself.
"Look at you, blushing even when you are looking at a mere sunrise with me. Do you love me so much?." Luo Lixi felt like she should take a mirror and tell him what his appearance was like then.
"Hmm." She stared on the ground and took back her hand which was gripped by him.
Then Luo Lixi again turned her head. This time there was no one behind the window but as her head moved, she saw his bodyguards were staring at them directly.
"Ugh!"
"What's wrong?"
Sheng Ruming was concerned when she made a painful grunt. She glared at him and said, "Nothing!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
She slowly made her way towards the small wardrobe placed at a corner.
Ji Yanli scanned it from side to side.
"He didn't throw it till this day?! Good boy…" Ji Yanli opened one drawer and found her dresses.
