Elite Retro Longue , 10 p.m. sharp ,Rong Xiao and the six men reached the bar as soon as they got the text message from Rong Xinghe. As the night grew older , they realized that it had indeed been a long time since they had chatted with each other so casually. Now that they all were together , they were going to live this night to their fullest. Soon enough , the six ladies joined in in the party as well.
As she looked at her brothers chatting and drinking with their wives , Rong Xinghe whispered in her sister"s ears ,"How can they be so lovey-dovey in front of us ?"
"They still do not match to the brutal display of affection , you and brother-in-law show all the time.", said Rong Xiao in a tone more of sarcasm ,"Just call him here."
As the girl thought of her man , a genuine smile appeared across her lips involuntarily ,"But won"t he be busy ?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"When it comes to you , has he ever been busy , angry or offended ? No. He just can"t. In fact , he loves it when you take the initiative. So stop overthinking and call him !", Rong Xiao said , swirling her gla.s.s of wine.
"You seem to have acquired quite some knowledge about love , my dear.", Rong Xinghe laughed ,"Why don"t you call Wei then ?"
The moment Rong Xinghe was done speaking , Rong Xiao"s phone rang up and she showed its screen to her sister ,"Brother-in-law and Wei are too different. Brother-in-law knows that you are with us. So he doesn"t want to spoil our family time by disturbing you. But this gentleman is a shameless individual. I will be back soon."

Few minutes after Rong Xiao left , the six men joined the longue"s dance floor with their ladies as Rong Xinghe simply smiled at her perfect family , sitting on the couch. The girl had already had four gla.s.ses of whiskey , so her cheeks and ears had turned slightly pink. Due to that much alcohol consumption , the girl was feeling dizzy and was finding it difficult to keep her eyes open. So she lied down on the couch and made a phone call to her darling.
"h.e.l.lo ?", a deep voice came through the other end ,"How is the party going , sweetheart ?"
"Nice...", the girl"s lips curled up as soon as her Yuan"s voice reached her ears ,"But I am missing you !"
Subconsciously , Xi Yuan"s left hand stopped signing the papers in front of him as his heart started beating rapidly. Did she just confessed that she was missing him ? Didn"t it meant that he had finally owned a little place in his woman"s heart ? After all , until and unless her brothers were there beside her , she never bothered thinking about anyone else. But he was an exception this time ! And it was a positive change.
Ever since she had admitted her love to him in the hospital , he hadn"t been able to accept it completely. He still felt that it was all surreal. Naturally , such words from his Xinghe"s mouth , made him realize that it wasn"t a dream. He was actually one of her priorities now. Every now and then , he would occupy her mind and thoughts. And the imagination itself was magical ! It was beautiful and purely serene.
"B...but I can"t come. My office headquarters are far from the Elite Retro and I also have a lot of shareholders to attend to.", the man spoke up after sometime.
"You don"t give me time anymore. So sad , so painful. Cruel man !", the girl complained childishly.
"Cruel ?", the man laughed softly ,"Xinghe , we had a conversation , just this morning. How much have you been drinking ?"
"Exactly ! This morning means eight , no , ten hours. Ten hours of long distance relations.h.i.+p ! You are so insensitive towards my little heart , Mr. Xi.", the girl whined.
Long distance relations.h.i.+p ? This girl... She was definitely a whole new person , when drunk. Now how was he to deal with a drunk Xinghe ?
The man tried his best to control his laughter before he took a deep breath ,"Sorry , honey. I will see you first thing in the morning. Just go to your room and get some sleep now. You sound very tired."
As no response came from the girl , Xi Yuan could tell that the girl had already fallen asleep. But she was in a longue and judging by the voices coming from the background , her brothers weren"t beside her. He couldn"t take chances with her security. So instead of disconnecting the call , the man quickly hacked into Elite Retro"s CCTV cameras and located his woman.
Next , he texted Xi Wei ,"Are you with Xiao ? Be honest."
Xi Wei obviously didn"t dared to lie to this intimidating brother of his , so he replied with a simple "Yes".
"You both better watch after Xinghe. She has fallen asleep on the couch itself. Got it ?"
"Yeah."
Sigh ! Such a wife-doting devil , Xi Wei muttered under his breath.

Next morning , the girl woke up to find herself in her bro Al"s appartment. Her brother must have carried her back home , the girl thought. But from the corner of her eyes , she could sense the presence of one more person , lying beside her.
"Good morning , Ma"jolie !", Xi Yuan smiled sleepily as he pulled the girl back into his embrace.
"Woah ! You... How did bro Al allowed you to enter my bedroom ?", the girl looked at the man with a shocked expression.
"Don"t tell me you climbed in through the window.", the girl"s eyes grew wider.
"This is the 42nd floor , darling. I might need a chopper for that.", the man smiled ,"Your sister-in-law let me in."
"Ooh !", the girl stretched her brows upwards , as realization came to her mind.
Xi Yuan kissed the girl"s forehead lovingly before he sat up on the bed and pa.s.sed a bowl of tablets to the girl ,"Have some medicine for headache first. I will go and make you some hangover drink."
As the man got down the bed , Rong Xinghe pulled the blanket above her head ,"Turn on the TV , baby. I want to listen to the headlines. Please ?"
"Sure."
Rong Xinghe had just gulped down the tablets along with water , when a female reporter"s words reached her ears.
"This video footage was leaked by the infamous Werewolf Crew last night. Three of our soldiers have been captured and tortured by the underworld gang with extreme brutality. This video clearly shows a male soldier"s index finger being gashed , while another young man was burnt by fuming iron rods.
"In the end , the gang members have also threatened the Military Chief of the nation , claiming that her inactivity can further result into the female soldier"s s.e.xual harra.s.sment. Now , the entire nation has placed all their hopes upon Military Chief Rong Xinghe. Let"s see , what the lady decides next. Till then , do watch the stills taken from this footage. Due to the disturbing contents present in the clip , we aren"t allowed to show the entire video to the general public."
