When she finished lamenting in her mind, Sheng Ruming grabbed her cheeks, forced her lips to open and then dropped a candy inside. Tasting the sweet and sour flavour, her heart was much better.
"Thanks…" Luo Lixi whispered as she stared at the man. However, she couldn't stay awake for long and fell asleep in one minute. With her head lying comfortably against his shoulder, Sheng Ruming hugged her tight and ordered Xiao Huang to drive steadily.
"Yes." Xiao Huang replied and cut down the speed in half. Thus, the twenty-minute drive ended up in more than four minutes.
After arriving at the apartment, Sheng Ruming covered Luo Lixi with his jacket. Then he scooped her up in his arms and went inside the building.
Before leaving, he turned to Xiao Huang and said, "Tomorrow, we will go to Ming city. There are some gifts in the apartment. Prepare cars to carry them when we go."
"Okay." Xiao Huang replied again and drove the car away from the entrance. The clock didn't even cross 11 when they came back. After entering the room, Sheng Ruming placed her on the bed, took off her heels and wanted to change her clothes.
But at that moment, Luo Lixi woke up and grabbed his moving hand tightly, "What are you doing?"
"Changing your dress." Sheng Ruming replied without batting an eyelid.
"No need." After saying that, Luo Lixi turned her back on him and covered herself with the sheet.
"Won't you be uncomfortable in this dress?" Sheng Ruming murmured as he went ahead to unzip her back. As soon as he did, his eyes fell on the big red mole on her back.
For a second, the man felt his heart get tickled by a feather. He glanced at the lady who clutched a pillow and entered her dreamland.
"Lixi?"
Silence~
"Luo Lixi?"
Silence~
"Baby?"
Silence, just him and the silence.
He wondered if she was actually asleep or just drowsy and was ignoring him. With more of his efforts to wake her up, Luo Lixi didn't even move or make any noise as he called her again and again. Sheng Ruming smirked and leaned down. With his fingers, he touched the mole and circled around it. Only he knew what he thought, the man went down and suddenly pinched that cute little thing.
"Ah, Aish! Ruming!" Luo Lixi flinched like a shrimp and got away from him. She glared at him from the edge of the bed and gritted her teeth as she asked, "What's wrong with you?"
While asking, she touched her back where he had just pinched her. Just a moment ago, she felt a strong tickle feeling and couldn't help but think that a bug might have fallen on her back!
How infuriating!
Sheng Ruming regained his stoic expression and stood up. He said stiffly, "There was a lizard on your back. Might have gotten in from the garden. I was just…"
"Ahhhhh?!" Luo Lixi screamed at the top of her lungs. She stood up on the bed with a jump and ran towards him. Sheng Ruming successfully caught her figure and rushed to the washroom.
"Lizard?! Where is the lizard?!" Luo Lixi asked shakily. Just thinking about that little thing made her disgusted and scared.
"I failed to catch it because you moved…" Sheng Ruming whispered innocently.
"It is in my dress?! Ahhhhh!!!" Another scream rang out in the washroom. Even before Sheng Ruming could place her on the floor, she removed her dress with her shaky skilful hands.
"Throw… throw it away!" Luo Lixi couldn't help but hide in his chest as she refused to look at the dress. Sheng Ruming didn't think that a mere joke would have such a big impact on her.
Even after she threw the dress away, Luo Lixi refused to move from his body. She turned to him with panicked eyes and whispered, "Ruming, you .. take the dress and throw it out for me!"
"Ah… alright." Sheng Ruming was guilty of what he had done. He placed her on a stool and took the dress out from the washroom. "Where should I put it?"
"In the trash can. I will never wear it!"
"…" Sheng Ruming glanced at the dress. It was very beautiful but now that he had lied, only the trash can awaited its fate.
Knock~ Knock~
At that moment, someone came. With the dress in his hand, the man opened the door.
"Sir, we heard a scream just now…" The maid would have never come up to the first floor if they only heard a scream. After all, it was normal for young people to get wild in bed. But the scream was bone piercing as if someone was dying.
The maids thought some accidents might have happened and came to check.
Sheng Ruming raised the dress in front of the maid and ordered, "You, throw it for me."
The maid took the dress in confusion and looked ahead to ask the reason but Sheng Ruming closed the door abruptly.
Bam!
"…" She touched the soft fabric of the dress and felt reluctant to throw such a dress away. The other maid who was standing far away called out to her.
"Don't stand in front of the door. Come here!" Thus, they left the second floor.
…
Inside the washroom.
Luo Lixi locked the door tightly and turned on the shower. She couldn't calm down and rubbed her back fiercely.
"Such a disgusting thing…" No matter how much she rubbed, she felt it wasn't enough. After twenty minutes, she stood up and glanced at the reflection on the mirror. Apart from her mole, her back had also turned red.
But just thinking that there was a lizard in her dress, she couldn't help but think in a shudder, "Not enough. Need more rubbing to wash off the traces…"
Thus, she ended up removing the imaginary trances of anything from her back. Even though the sensitive skin was burning from pain, she only thought of cleaning herself thoroughly.
"Are you done?'' Sheng Ruming called out anxiously.
"One minute." Luo Lixi replied and wiped the water stain from her body. Then, she took the bathrobe, opened the door and walked out.
"What did you do for so long?" Sheng Ruming asked with a frown.
"What else? Shower." Luo Lixi replied as she walked in. But after walking for some time, she stopped abruptly and turned to him. "Where is that lizard?"
"What?"
"The lizard. Did you find it?" Luo Lixi asked and glanced at the bed warily. She couldn't help but take one step back and panicked, 'Is it perhaps in the bed?!'
"I…" He was at a loss for words.
"If you can't find it, I won't sleep on the bed tonight!"
Sheng Ruming felt like slapping himself for lying. He went to the bed and checked for her to see.
"No lizard here. Must be in the dress."
"Where did you throw it?" Luo Lixi glanced around the room in a panic.
"Gave to the maid to throw away." While saying this, he sighed helplessly in his mind.
Only after hearing, she relaxed her shoulders and walked up to the bed. Luo Lixi sat on it and then turned to him who had already changed into his pyjamas.
"You want to sleep?"
"No." Sheng Ruming shook his head and went up to her. He covered her with a blanket and whispered, "I have to work overnight today. Remember? We have to go to Ming city tomorrow."
"… Remember." Luo Lixi replied and hid her face under the blanket.
"Goodnight." Sheng Ruming whispered and turned off the lights. Only the bedside lamps were on. Then, he left the room and went to the study to work.
Many projects were in hand and they couldn't be delayed. To leave them for a day, he had to work overnight and made some progress on them beforehand.
…
After Sheng Ruming left, Luo Lixi sat up on the bed. All her sleepiness vanished earlier, and she no longer felt sleepy. Thus, she went to the balcony. There, she could only enjoy the tall buildings and the bustling streets. But she wasn't mad like last time and felt somewhat nostalgic.
"This city… so big… just like the Long city." Luo Lixi whispered and then curled up on the sofa. The cold night breeze could give a weird kind of peace to mind.
Luo Lixi sighed with a smile. When she turned around, she saw the stockpile of her apple juice. Without waiting, she began to have a drinking session, all alone.
…
The next morning, before sunrise.
Luo Lixi woke up early in the morning. The first thing she noticed was that she was still on the balcony, curled up on the sofa like last night.
'Didn't he come back later?'Luo Lixi pondered for a moment but soon her mind cheered up. Luo Lixi couldn't wait to go back and see her grandfather whom she had missed a lot last night.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
