After Sheng Ruming had his fill, he broke away and freed Luo Lixi. As she moved her face back, a trail of saliva connected the two people's lips.
"Ha…" Luo Lixi's cheeks were scarlet with rage and shame. She had tried to free herself from his grasp without avail. Her struggle was but a slight ignorable annoyance to him.
"Take… back your hand, uff~" Luo Lixi panted heavily. 36
"No." Sheng Ruming denied and tightened his hold.
"Ruming…" Luo Lixi whispered and stared at his eyes.
After what felt like forever, he finally released her from his hold, though he kept an arm around her waist to steady her now jelly-like legs.
There wasn't a single stubble on his smooth chin and Luo Lixi's skin didn't get any scratch because of it when she was kissed heavily. His breathing was light and his voice was low as he asked, "What did you try to say amid our kissing?"
Luo Lixi stepped back and breathed hard as she felt the strong taste of his in her mouth. When she swallowed down slightly, the man narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Looking at that, her eyes darted around but refused to look at him eye to eye. "I didn't say anything."
After replying, Luo Lixi bit her bottom lip gently while facing the flower plants.
The sky was brightly lit and they could see each other's faces clearly. She never thought that Sheng Ruming would make such an erotic expression right in front of her. She also found it difficult to resist his manly charm when he bit down on his bottom lip right in front of her.
Luo Lixi glanced around and to her surprise, no one was looking at them. But then she wasn't any better. Her cheeks were flushed, eyebrows frowned and screamed internally because she couldn't take it anymore. 'Ahhh… hhh… hhh… ~'
She hid her face with her two pale hands and screamed in her mind for a long time. Even when Sheng Ruming poked on her back, she didn't move.
Suddenly, Luo Lixi glanced around with caution. When she saw there was no one, she turned around and faced the man as she became excited.
Sheng Ruming raised his eyes and intended to ask her why she turned so excited all of a sudden when Luo Lixi pinched his cheeks hard!
"Ouch! Ah! Ah! Aaaaaa~" The man cried out loudly!
Not just hard. But the one which would make you cry! That one! Her slender fingers twisted and she pinched the man without any restraint.
"Only It was left! Finally!" Luo Lixi giggled out aloud as she noticed his twisted face which was changing colours because of the pain.
When she took back her hands, two dark red shades took place on his cheeks. Luo Lixi's giggle froze as she came to a conclusion right then.
"Ah! Your cheeks! What will Aunty Wei say if she sees you like this?!"
Luo Lixi covered her head and pondered in utter distress, 'Ah no! Why did I even pinch there?! I could have pinched him in another place!'
Luo Lixi grumbled while Sheng Ruming rubbed his cheeks. He assured her and said it would go away in a while. But Luo Lixi wasn't convinced and thus she forced him to wear her big sunglasses.
"Don't take it off until I tell you, okay?" Luo Lixi asked urgently.
Sheng Ruming nodded and accepted the fact that he had to wear her big glasses now to appease her anger.
He smiled and glanced around. The strong smell of flowers was too much and he couldn't help but rub his nose.
Luo Lixi grabbed his arm and anxiously murmured while dragging him ahead, "It's been a long time since your grandma Lin has gone back. We should hurry as well!"
"Ok, I understand." Sheng Ruming smiled like a fool when he was grabbed tightly by her pale hand. Luo Lixi didn't have the strength to drag a strong man like him but because he was letting her drag, she succeeded.
...
While they were bantering and walking towards the main villa, Xiao Huang lifted his head and glanced at the second floor. His eyes stayed there for a second and then turned to look ahead.
On the second floor, a woman was watching the couple for a long time. She was standing behind the curtains of the window and stared at the two people. Unusually, her cheeks were a bit red as she smiled deeply.
On one side, Sheng Haotin was quietly making his favourite tea. His eyes were steady and serious as he focused on making the tea.
When the tea was done, he poured it into two small cups and picked up one. As the man sipped on it, he made a satisfactory groan, "Ah~ A good tea~..."
He took another sip and then another and by the time of one minute, Sheng Haotin was done drinking. When he placed down the empty teacup, he asked with a deep voice.
"Why are you standing there for a long time? Come and taste this tea. Tell me how it tastes."
"Ah!" Wei Airan flinched and turned back.
Her cheeks were a bit red as she hastily dragged the curtains and hid the window behind.
Sheng Haotin saw her cheeky action but did not say anything. When she came and sat in front of him, he gave her the other small teacup from the tea-table.
Wei Airan's focus wasn't present in enjoying the tea. Her mind was busy thinking about the scenes she had just seen earlier, Luo Lixi pinching Sheng Ruming.
A light giggle came out from her lips as she was drinking, causing the tea to fall and ruining her freshly worn gown.
"..." Sheng Haotin lifted his face and sharply stared at her.
Wei Airan gave a hearty laugh and explained, "Haa… haha! The tea was good and somewhat sweet! Well done! It's a pity I wasted it…"
Wei Airan sighed and tried to get up but Sheng Haotin motioned her to keep sitting.
Then, he lifted the beautiful black teapot from the tea table and poured her another cup of tea. Then he handed the cup with peeping hot pale bluish liquid and said dangerously, "Be careful this time. I won't give you a third time..."
Wei Airan nodded hastily and took the cup with both hands. When she was drinking, Sheng Haotin suddenly spoke, "Why were you giggling like that earlier?"
Wei Airan's face froze as she was caught off guard. Usually, Sheng Haotin wouldn't ask such questions but now that he had done that, she couldn't lie. The old man was very skilful in catching liars.
Wei Airan glanced down and saw the little white flowers in her tea. She contemplated whether she should be truthful. When she was done drinking and thinking, she was greeted by the empty seat across her.
"Ah Hao?!" Wei Airan called out nervously and swept her eyes around the room, only to find the man beside the window, at the same place where she was standing a few minutes ago.
"Ah Hao, you…" Wei Airan stood up and hurried to him when the man turned around and said sternly. "Look at you. Peeking on young people…"
"I… I… Ah, um! He's my son!..." Wei Airan cried out and was prepared to refute when a gentle knock on the door was heard.
"Madam, young master and young madam are on their way and will arrive in a while." Aunt Lin only said what needed to be informed and kept mum.
Little did she know, Wei Airan was very anxious because the couple was late and stayed beside the window the whole time, only to see the romantic side of her enthusiastic son!
Wei Airan cried out so that the old housekeeper could hear as she went to the closet and picked another dress, "Alright, aunt Lin! I am coming down in five minutes!"
Thus, Aunt Lin went back to the first floor and stood beside the door. When she saw the couple finally entering, she walked ahead to greet them properly.
Luo Lixi stopped in her tracks and smiled at Aunt Lin. Then, she turned aside and shot a glance at Bi Tang who was standing at the entrance alongside Xiao Huang.
Bi Tang understood and then he followed in with other guards, many gifts in their hands.
Under Aunt Lin's instructions, they placed the gifts in the most eye-catching place, on the long table surrounded by the sofa set of the current room.
Click~ click~
"You two are here~" Right then, Wei Airan walked down and said in her sweet voice while smiling.
When everyone looked up, they saw a beautiful woman in a classy purple floral design qipao. Aunt Lin froze when she saw the makeup on Wei Airan's face.
Even though Wei Airan was Sheng Ruming's mother and was somewhat old, years of care would finally come out in full display whenever she would use a bit of makeup and beautiful clothes.
