Chapter 97 - 97 Greeting...



Sheng Ruming\'s face twisted into an unrecognisable expression when he saw her spat for the second time.

"Stop doing it. Your saliva can fall on top of somebody."

Luo Lixi glanced up at him.

"It is our saliva… You were too much." She shook her head and walked inside the dark. After walking towards the wall which had switches, she turned on all of them. There wasn\'t any electronic fan in the room but an air conditioner.

"Lixi, we will go outside later to have dinner."

"Hmm…" She gave him a vague response. 

After that Luo Lixi walked towards the closet. She opened it and searched for suitable clothes to wear but didn\'t find anything to her liking.

Sheng Ruming saw she was frowning heavily the more she searched. 

"Ruming, here, every single dress is too revealing. There isn\'t a suitable one for me to wear." She knitted her brows as she turned towards him. 

"You have also thrown away that bag with the dress earlier today. Now what will I wear?!" After saying out her thoughts, she turned towards the closet. Her mood was turning sour as she gazed at the pants. Those were not even half pants as they wouldn\'t even reach till her thighs.

"Wear them for now. You can put on the long jacket when we go for the date… no, I mean dinner." 

Luo Lixi put her hands on her hips and her head turned towards him. 

"I won\'t go on a date wearing these clothes... if you want to have a date then go alone!" Her mind was turning aggressive  and she wanted to lash out at him but hardly, she controlled the urge.

Sheng Ruming panicked when he heard it but it didn\'t show outside. He had searched the Internet for the best restaurants in the surrounding areas and booked a whole one via online to have a romantic date with Luo Lixi; a candlelight dinner.

"Then, give me your body measurements. I will go to buy dresses for you. Or you can choose some from the online..." His voice trailed off when he saw her walking out of the room. He could sense her mind was disturbed but didn\'t know the reason.

\'Why is she throwing a tantrum? I didn\'t do anything wrong today, did I? Or she is showing the after-effects of the airsickness?!\' Sheng Ruming debated in his mind to guess the actual reason it was very hard to guess so… he gave up.

"Forget it. I can figure it out later."

After Luo Lixi had walked out from the room, she walked straight to the kitchen. She opened the freezer and saw various bottles of juices. She had intended to drink cold water to cool down her body heat. The kiss earlier had turned her on so much and now she was having difficulty to cool down her chaotic senses.

"That hateful man…" She murmured angrily.

Luo Lixi grabbed a bottle of orange juice, took a glass and walked towards the living room. She sat down on the sofa and drank a full glass of cold juice.

"Why isn\'t he coming out?" It\'s been a few seconds but there was no sign of him coming out of the bedroom. She filled the glass to the brim and brought it towards her lips. She took little sips and peered at the door from time to time. 

Abruptly the door opened and Sheng Ruming walked out from the room. He caught her staring at the door.

Without saying anything to her, he walked towards the door and changed his indoor slippers to his shoes.

"Where are you going now?!" Luo Lixi stood up and hurriedly ran towards him. She didn\'t want to be alone in that big penthouse.

"I am going out to buy a dress for you. Just wait for me…" 

After hearing that Luo Lixi hesitantly told him, "Don\'t you need my body measurements?" 

Actually after Luo Lixi had gone into the coma, she had lost a lot of her weights and her body changed a lot. So now if he asked her she wouldn\'t be able to give him the correct numbers.

"No need…" He didn\'t say anything further and walked out of the penthouse.

\'He must be angry at me.\' As this line flashed in her mind, she placed a hand on her forehead and rubbed hefty forehead.

\'Why did I even walk out like that earlier?!\'

Luo Lixi turned around, walked towards the sofa and sat down on it, waiting for him to return...

When Sheng Ruming arrived before lifts, he saw one of them was on the 17th floor while the other one was on the 19th floor. He clicked for both of them and the left one opened first. So he walked in that and clicked for the ground floor.

The moment the door of his lift closed, the next lift reached the 20th floor and opened, Sarah and her father walked out from it. They reached the penthouse door and he rang the switch of the doorbell.

Ding~ Dong~ Ding~ Dong~

Luo Lixi stopped drinking her juice and walked towards the door.

\'So fast! He must have forgotten something to bring with him…\' 

At this thought, she walked towards the door and opened it without checking who was outside.

"Ruming, you…" 

Luo Lixi stopped talking when an unfamiliar face came into her view, she was surprised to see the ocean blue eyes of the man.

When she opened her mouth to say something, her sight fell on the little girl before him. Both of the persons had similar features, just the girl\'s eye colour was different. 

\'So cute~\' It was the first thought that came to her mind.

Sarah was waiting for someone to come out. When she saw Luo Lixi open the door, she labelled her as a big sister. Also, Luo Lixi was wearing half pants and v-line t-shirt, appearing very young. 

Without saying anything she lifted her dress and gracefully kneeled down before Luo Lixi. She cupped her little fists together and kowtowed to her.

"Sarah greets big sister~"

"..."

"..."

Both the adults became shocked by her. Her father facepalmed himself while Luo Lixi\'s face twisted.

She hurriedly went down and lifted the girl from the ground.

"Little girl, it seems you have watched a lot of dramas." Luo Lixi chuckled while the girl nodded her head hurriedly.

"When mommy watches drama, I also watch." The man dragged the girl towards him.

"We embarrassed ourselves at the first meeting." The man replied in resignation.

"Not at all. I find it very cute though, it felt as if she was acknowledging me as her \'master\'." Luo Lixi brought a hand before her mouth to stifle her laughter while he laughed aloud. Sarah glanced at them and was confused.

The man coughed and raised his right hand towards her.

"Hello, I\'m Ethan Han. Sheng Ruming\'s friend, also your neighbour from the 19th floor."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Han. I\'m Lu… I am Li Xixi, Sheng Ruming\'s fiancée." Luo Lixi reached out for his hand and did a handshake.

"No daddy! They are from China. We should greet like I did before. Come and kneel down beside me." The girl kneeled down again and tried to drag him to kneel with her. He gripped her waist and lifted her body. He placed her at his chest and embraced her tightly.

"No need to kneel before me." Luo Lixi\'s laughter didn\'t stop easily.

"Little girl, what is your name?" After Luo Lixi had calmed down she asked her.

"My name is Sarah Han." Also this time, she was going to cup her small fists but her father stopped her.

"Don\'t do it like the dramas."

"But mommy told me to greet them properly."

Luo Lixi walked ahead and patted her lightly. 

"We don\'t kneel to greet people. Those were in the past." She walked backwards and made space for them.

"Please come in. Ruming has gone outside but he will return soon."

He shook his head. "Not now. Miss Li, I have come to invite the both of you to join us for dinner." Sarah nodded her little head at that.

"Um… Mr. Han, we have plans to go outside for dinner…" Suddenly Sarah moved violently in his father embrace and slipped down as he allowed her.

"No! Sister, mommy had made a lot of food for all of us. You have to come no matter what!" The little girl took Luo Lixi\'s hand and dragged her outside of the penthouse.

"Hey, wait." Luo Lixi stopped and made Sarah stop in her steps as well. The girl lifted her head and stared at her. 

"I need to ask your uncle for it. You two come in first."

When Luo Lixi walked in the penthouse, Sarah followed her in. The man didn\'t have other choice but to enter as well.

"Please wait for a second." She motioned him to sit down on the sofa and brought two glasses of water for them. 

After that, Luo Lixi walked straight to her bedroom, the little girl wanted to follow her there but he stopped her.

"Don\'t make trouble." 

Luo Lixi turned around and gestured to him to let the little girl go. 

"Let her come. It\'s okay." 

So, he retracted his hands and the girl shot like a cannonball towards Luo Lixi.

Sarah followed her in the bedroom. Luo Lixi began to search for her mobile phone.

"Here..." After Luo Lixi had found it, she clicked on an app, found the one and only saved contact number \'Hubby\' and called him.
