At 10:00 p.m.

Zhi Xi and Lu Wei reached the hotel where Rong Xinghe was staying . This hotel belonged to Lu Corporation , so they had an easy access to the girl"s suite"s extra key . And since they were the Military Chief"s family , MCST (Military Chief Security Team) had no problem with them going inside her suite .

So they quickly rushed to the girl"s suite and opened the door cautiously .

To their surprise , the girl was sleeping on the couch as she had a Sherlock Holmes novel in her hands . They walked towards the couch with soft and gentle footsteps , in order to not wake her up .

" She really scared me ! " , Zhi Xi said in low voice.

" I know, right ? It is so rare for her to cry ! " , Lu Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhi Xi bent down to take the Sherlock Holmes novel from the girl"s hands . She was literally hugging it in her sleep .

" Wei ! Her body is burning up ! " , Zhi Xi suddenly said as he realized that her body"s temperature was way more than normal , despite the cool winds going on in New York City .

" What ?! " , Lu Wei quickly placed the palm of his right hand on her forehead and furrowed his brows .

d.a.m.n it !

Her body temperature was really too high !

He quickly picked her up and carried her to the bed as he said , " Call Rogguang ! And ask him for the medications ! "

Zhi Xi nodded and took out his phone .

Soon , Su Rogguang told about the required medicines and the two men called a nurse to inject the medication through syringe as the girl couldn"t open her eyes .

After sometime , her body temperature started falling down and the nurse left the suite .

" What the h.e.l.l is happening there guys ?! She recuperated from the terrorist attack not too long ago and she already has a fever ! Why was she crying ?! Who the f*ck made her upset ?! " , Su Rogguang screamed angrily through the other end of the phone .

The two men took a deep breath and explained about the girl"s call and that she refused to tell anything to them .

Su Rogguang heard silently and told them to stay by her for the entire night , in case , she got any frightening dream as he hung up the call.

" Who the h.e.l.l did it ?! " , Zhi Xi clenched his teeth .

" Calm down Xi . We need to respect her wishes and we are not going to ask her anything when she wakes up . Something big must have happened that she is hiding it from even us . " , Lu Wei pacified Zhi Xi in his ever calm tone .

Zhi Xi calmed down a little after he heard the man"s words , " Yeah . There is no point making her feel uncomfortable . Its just I really wish to know the reason behind all this ! "

" I think I know who did this . "


" Who ?! "

" That brat Yuan ! "

" What ?!! You also think like that ?! "

" What do you mean ? "

Zhi Xi smiled bitterly , " Come on ! Does he really think that we are idiots ?! The way he looks at her and the way he treats her , explains it all . I am a man in love , after all ! "

" That"s true . I , too , wasn"t suspicious earlier , but when he arrived at the hospital and waited their anxiously for two days , everything was clear . What more , he even wished to see her as soon as surgeons got out of the Operation Theatre . This was exactly how I had reacted , three years ago , when Ningtao had met with an accident , in front of her family " , Lu Wei said in a cold voice .

" Do you think he confessed or something ?! " , Zhi Xi widened his eyes as he thought of the possibility .

" I think so . And she must have rejected . It was inevitable . She is still having hard time in believing herself after the incidents with Rong Yufan and Zhou Che . " , Lu Wei squinted his eyes as he thought about the two people he hated the most and how they had hurt the person he loved the most .

" Hmm . But if he confessed , he did the right thing . I would have literally killed him if he had kept her in the dark ! " , Zhi Xi looked at the girl sleeping soundly and sighed , " Only if she hadn"t been so sensitive and compa.s.sionate . It seems like she has hurt herself as much as she has hurt him ! "

" She has always been like this . Do you remember , when she was little , Zhi Al had fallen down from bicycle and his knees had started bleeding ?! She had cried even more than him " , Lu Wei smiled as he reminisced the girl"s childhood .

" HAHAHA ! How can I forget that ? You had to coax Zhi Al and I had to coax this girl ! Since her childhood , she had always had that apathy . Her heart literally feels the pain , even if a stranger is going through it . " , Zhi Xi smiled .

At this time , one of Zhi Xi"s subordinates knocked on the door , " Sir ! Your suspicions were true , Mr. Xi Yuan had indeed taken Ms. Xinghe to the Statue of Liberty and there was also a private candle light arrangement . Right now , he is in a bar . "

" Definitely a confession ! " , Lu Wei shook his head helplessly .

" I am suddenly confused . Should I sympathize with this girl or that guy ! " , Zhi Xi looked at the aloof sleeping beauty who had hurt a grown up man"s feelings so ruthlessly .

" I am not confident about his family . " Lu Wei sat down on the bed as he patted the girl"s forehead lovingly .

" Exactly . Who knows what they will do ? The Xi elders have always been unpredictable . And what more , we will have to look at that brat in a whole new different light . He is a good student but that doesn"t guarantee his ability to be a good lover ! " , a bone-chilling coldness appeared in Zhi Xi"s voice .

Lu Wei nodded .

Xi Family was a very prosperous family to the outside world , but it was all messed up from the inside .

He hoped that Xi Yuan would just give up , but knowing him , he would never do that .

And since the question was about their sister , there was no way they would allow the Xi Family to act however they wanted .

Things were going to get tough soon .
