While Rong Xinghe"s family was celebrating the new arrival in their family happily , a storm had taken place in the Xi family home. Almost every family member was present at the family mansion except Xi Yuan. Xi Yuan was busy handling the shareholders" meeting in the company and had no idea that Xi Fang had already received the news about his meeting with Xi Chonglin."What did you said to brother today in the office , dad ?!", Xi Fang crossed his arms as he questioned Xi Chonglin.
Luo Youyou frowned ,"Show some respect , Fang. He is your father. He will always think better for you."
"But that doesn"t mean that dad can just walk into brother"s office to claim the position of CEO for Fang , Mom ! Brother has been serving the company for past eight years now. He must have had felt so bad when dad talked to him like that. It literally looked like brother was just a subst.i.tute for dad.", Xi Ying clenched her fists angrily as she glared at her mother.
"Ladies should watch their language , Ying. We haven"t forced Yuan to do anything yet. We simply expect this to be a fair and just compet.i.tion. Fang deserves to show his capabilities as well.", Xi Chonglin glared at his daughter.
"And exactly why do you think I want to take over Xi corporations , Dad ? My opinions matter a lot to him and he hasn"t ever looked down on me. I don"t expect anything more than that. You don"t need to a.s.sume all these things on your own. Remember one thing. I , Xi Fang , will never become the CEO of Xi Corporations because I am not worthy of it more than my brother !", Xi Fang clarified his standpoint to everyone before he turned around and left the Xi family home.
Xi Chonglin and Luo Youyou were helpless against Xi Fang"s stubborn behaviour. They knew that nothing was important for Xi Fang more than Xi Yuan. So they had no choice but to put all their hopes on their soon to be daughter-in-law ! Only this new sense of responsibility could push Xi Fang to aim for something high above his current authority.
As a result , they had already contacted Jiang Yue"s family and a meeting was soon arranged between the Xi and the Jiang family. Jiang family was also one of the most reputed socialite families in Country X and was mostly involved with jewelry production. In fact , 60% of Country X"s solitaire diamonds were produced by Jiang family. So the Xi family had no reason to turn down Xi Fang and Jiang Yue"s relations.h.i.+p.
But was it really that easy to drift apart the two Xi brothers ?

Three days later , Rong Xinghe returned back to her penthouse in Elite residences after taking care of Songyan and her nephew in the Zhi family home. Since both little baby Alix and troublemaker Taio were cute and cheeky , almost everyone in the family were staying by their side most of the time. And as Rong Xinghe"s health was slightly weaker after the migraine stroke , the six men had deliberately forced her to have some rest.
After taking a shower , Rong Xinghe subconsciously headed towards Elite Saphhire penthouse to spend some time with her man. Ever since she had realized her love for him , Rong Xinghe had started to enjoy every second she spent with Xi Yuan , so this time was no exception.
But when she stepped into the man"s living room , she realized that he had already fallen asleep on the couch. He was surrounded by many official doc.u.ments and papers. One look at him and almost anyone could tell that he was tired and hadn"t had any sleep for the past few days.
Initially , Rong Xinghe thought that he was working on some important projects. So she gently caressed his hair and kissed his forehead lovingly as a burning blush crept across her cheeks. After she pacified her rapidly beating heart , Rong Xinghe brought a warm blanket for the man.
After she covered him with the blanket , the girl turned around to readjust his doc.u.ments.
At this time , Xi Yuan sleepily grabbed the girl"s wrist and pulled her towards him. Rong Xinghe was taken aback by the man"s sudden actions and quickly covered her mouth to not scream and wake him up. The couple were in such an intimate position that the girl was lying exactly beside the man on the broad couch , but the man seemed to have no inconvenience with it. In fact , he pulled the girl against his chest and hugged her tightly as a smile spread across his lips ,"My Xinghe..."
Rong Xinge froze in the man"s arms as she breathed his unique scent silently. She couldn"t express her happiness when Xi Yuan mumbled her name in his alluring and deep yet raspy voice. Most importantly , she was touched by the fact that he was so possessive about her even during his sleep. At the end , the woman didn"t dared to move as she was afraid to wake up the tired and fatigued man. Only after the man had fallen into a deep sleep did Rong Xinghe decided to free herself from his embrace.
The girl got up from the couch and placed a sweet kiss upon Xi Yuan"s lips as she smiled with relief ,"Yes Yuan , your Xinghe..."
The girl then picked up the doc.u.ments on the floor and shuffled them in an organized manner. At this time , her eyes landed on one of the pages and the girl stopped all her actions. Xi Yuan was reading the will written by his grandfather before he fell asleep. Beside the will were two more doc.u.ments. They were about the formalities to appoint Xi Fang as the president of Xi Corporations.
Was Xi Yuan really planning to pa.s.s on his position to Xi Fang ?
Although she knew that he trusted Xi Fang with the business , she also knew that Xi Fang wasn"t prepared for this responsibility currently. And Xi Yuan wasn"t one of those brothers who forced their younger siblings to shoulder their burdens. Instead , Xi Yuan would rather go through every pain personally than allowing his three lackeys to get hurt. Just what had happened with him during the past few days when they were apart ?!
The girl pulled out her phone and made a phone call ,"Fang , can you come with Ying and Wei to your brother"s place ? I would like to discuss something with you three."
