While the Xi family"s destiny was being decided in that small private hospital ward , the entire Country X"s business world was in a chaos. The news of Xi Yuan going into a vegetative state had been leaked into the media , which was enough to shake the economies of many countries altogether. Other than Country X , Xi Corporations was a leading business group in other nations including j.a.pan , France , Australia , Denmark and many more. Naturally , the Business King Xi Yuan"s retirement for an indefinite period of time was a shock for these nations."Country X"s business tyc.o.o.n Xi Yuan in a state of coma , the Xi family rushed to the hospital at 2:00 a.m. in the midnight !"
"Business King Xi Yuan in a vegetative state : What will be the future of the mighty Xi Corporations ?!"
"Military Chief Rong Xinghe stands beside a "friend" during the tough times , the Superfamily reaches the hospital too."
"Xi Yuan : an eminent personality in digital , virtual and technological business ; Is this the end of an era ?"
"Xi Corporations in a state of dilemma ; employees ask for a proper investigation regarding the unexpected and drastic attack !"
"In the absence of the acting CEO , will the younger brother Xi Fang rule over the magnificent Xi business empire ? Let"s hear the comments from some legends in the field."
These were headlines of almost every news channel in Country X next morning. And as he hailed from the world of journalism itself , it was impossible for Mo Zixuan to stay uninformed regarding the matter. As he looked at his sister staring blankly at the motionless Xi Yuan , he couldn"t help but pinch the s.p.a.ce between his brows worriedly. Could she really stay strong throughout this difficult time ? Or would she end up affecting her health adversely ?
The man caressed the girl"s cheeks gently as he looked at her encouragingly ,"The media knows , kiddo. You will have to take the action soon. Are you ready ?"
The Xi family members exchanged glances among themselves when they listened to Mo Zixuan"s words before they looked at Rong Xinghe with complex expressions across their faces. On the other hand , Rong Xinghe took a deep breath and closed her eyes as Xi Yuan"s deep and magnetizing voice started resounding in her ears.
"When a King is weak and injured , only the Queen has the capability to safeguard his empire."
"If something happens to me someday and I am unable to take care of Xi corporations , will you take over from me ? Will you become the CEO of Xi corporations then ?"
"But life is always filled with uncertainty. I just don"t want you to weaken up if such a time comes in our life. I have many enemies , Xinghe."
"More than anyone , I trust you , Xinghe."
"I am not trusting just anyone. I am trusting my Xinghe. I am trusting the woman I love."
As she recalled their conversation from a few days ago , Rong Xinghe"s heart was suddenly filled with confidence and courage. The girl slowly opened her eyes as she looked at her bro Lu with certainty ,"Inform the media , brother. And also call for an emergency shareholders meeting , Fang."
Even when he wasn"t physically present beside her , her Yuan was still her biggest source of emotional and mental support. She didn"t knew if Xi Yuan had already had the premonitions about the attack , but his words back then proved to be the best encouragement she needed currently. In fact , Xi Yuan"s every smile , his every memory was Rong Xinghe"s only source of strength right now.
______________________________________
Few hours later , the nation was yet again in an uproar. Country X"s Military Chief Rong Xinghe was going to replace the Business King Xi Yuan in the Xi Corporations , and not his own brother Xi Fang. This piece of news was confusing and shocking at the same time. After all , Xi Yuan was just an acquaintance with Rong Xinghe in front of the world. Although there were many couple fans s.h.i.+pping them , they both were mature enough to keep a low profile. So this decision was completely unexpected for everyone.
As a result , many rumors started spreading throughout the country. Some anonymous sources started claiming that Rong Xinghe had intentionally manipulated the Xi family and that she was an opportunist who wanted to step all over Xi Yuan when he was down. Most of these rumors were spread by the Rong empire from the dark. After all , how could they see Rong Xinghe becoming the most influential person overnight ?
But Xi Fang was also the brother of Xi Yuan. For him , it wasn"t too difficult to guess that the Rong family was involved in his sister-in-law"s defamation. And since his brother wasn"t beside Rong Xinghe , her honor and safety were his responsibilities now.
Hence , the man soon called for a press conference , so that he could face the judgements and accusations himself. It was better for his sister-in-law to stay away from the media at such a time. She was already having a tough time in the shareholders meeting at the Xi Corporations. She didn"t needed to tire herself out for the PR as well after doing so much for the Xi family.
When asked about the reliability of the decision , the man lifted up his head and answered humbly ,"Since an entire business empire can"t run on its own , we have indeed requested Military Chief Rong Xinghe to take over from my brother."
"What is the health status of President Yuan , Mr. Fang ?", one of the female reporters asked with concern.
The moment his superhero was mentioned , Xi Fang clenched his fists as he felt a burning sensation in the corner of his eyes. In a weak and hoa.r.s.e voice , the man replied softly ,"He is in a vegetative state currently. But we won"t be giving up on him just yet. I expect the same from our employees and the entire nation. Please pray for him."
"Since you are the eldest son after Mr. Yuan , why didn"t you volunteered for the position of CEO , Mr. Fang ?"
"I am not suited for the throne , sir.", the man glanced at the reporter sitting in the dark. It seemed like he was the one hired by that crazy Rong family.
The reporter chuckled coldly before he asked again ,"And what purpose does the Military Chief have behind involving with the Xi family"s personal matters ? This only makes her relations.h.i.+p with Mr. Yuan look more ambiguous to the world."
"What do you mean ?", Xi Ying frowned. Unlike Xi Fang , she couldn"t figure out that the journalist was planted by the Rong family.
But before Xi Fang could stop the reporter , the man laughed as if he had heard something funny ,"Actually , this swift possession over the company shares can make anyone think that Ms. Xinghe is nothing but a mistress to Mr. Xi Yuan. A mistress , who is very dear to his heart !"
The moment Xi Fang heard the reporter"s words , he slammed his hands against the table in front of him and glared angrily at the man with the intention to cut him into thousands of tiny pieces at once. What a trap !
This matter was definitely going to get out of control. He needed to come up with something quickly. But what could he do in front of such a huge crowd ?
The only thing Xi Fang forgot was that , there were still those six sister-doting tigers alive , who were capable enough to protect their kiddo alone !
