Soon , Zhi Bo visited hospital along with the five men , Xi Yuan and Rong Xinghe. After a minor surgery of two hours , the .25 caliber rifle bullet was separated from the man"s right shoulder. The doctors advised the man to not move his right hand for the next two weeks. Ruo Cy also arrived along with the other five sister-in-laws of the girl at the hospital worriedly.Only after the situation at the hospital had calmed down did Xi Yuan and Rong Xinghe left the place together. They both had been busy for the whole past day and couldn"t even get a proper sleep throughout the entire night. And although they still had a lot on their plates , they couldn"t just ignore their health. A human body obviously needed to regenerate itself before exerting itself again.
Nevertheless , this rest was a must for both Xinguan as a storm was to soon disrupt their happiness and togetherness...
__________________________
One more month pa.s.sed by and the matters at Xi Corporations accelerated even further. Xi Fang replacing Xi Yuan as the president of the business group was not something the employees had ever expected. Most importantly , they had been trusting Xi Yuan since the time he was just eighteen. So for them , this sudden change was completely unnecessary and impractical. It wasn"t that they didn"t trusted Xi Fang. It was just that they respected Xi Yuan more.
And why not ? Xi Yuan had burdened the weight of Xi empire when it was at the verge of bankruptcy. He had been beside every company employee when they were at their lowest. So now that they had achieved such high milestones under his leaders.h.i.+p , how could they be ungrateful enough to let him go just like that ?
Naturally , news like this couldn"t be kept hidden from the media for too long. Soon enough , this silent battle turned into a national and international debate. Although the Xi siblings tried their best to suppress the matter , they couldn"t do anything after the journalists and public got involved with it.
"Aren"t the Xi brothers inseparable ? Then what is this ?"
"Xi Fang has already made clear that he isn"t interested in becoming Xi Corporations" CEO. Then is this just a rumor ?"
"Rumor or not , Xi Yuan is irreplaceable. He is so smart and talented. This entire argument is completely baseless."
"Exactly ! Its not like CEO Xi has ever taken any impulsive decision since he joined the business. Company has never faced even a single loss under his leaders.h.i.+p."
"I know , right ? Mr. Yuan can easily form a new Xi Corporations with his skills. He is the brand himself. But the question here is , if Mr. Fang actually wants to step over his elder brother ?"
"Who knows ? This isn"t happening for the first time in the Xi family. Years ago , Xi Chongkun and Xi Chonglin had also fought over the position of presidency. Maybe all the brotherhood was just for a show all along..."
Obviously , Mo Zixuan was following this matter more closely than anyone. After all , he was the only Media Magnet Country X had. As the six men knew about Rong Xinghe"s feelings for Xi Yuan , they were already keeping tabs on the Xi family. So this incident was bound to attract their attention.
That night , Mo Zixuan visited Elite Diamond penthouse to have a chat with his sister. And to his surprise , five men were already there. Su Rogguang was bandaging Rong Xiao"s left hand"s index finger as Rong Xinghe discussed some business doc.u.ments with Zhi Xi.
"What happened to your finger ?", Mo Zixuan looked at the second lady devil worriedly.
Rong Xiao laughed nervously as Su Rogguang glared at her coldly ,"I lost a bet."
"What bet ?"
"Xi Wei challenged me to compete with him for chopping vegetables speedily. But he was too good. I got distracted and lost the bet. Now I will have to treat him to his favorite restaurants three times. He is such a foodie !"
Mo Zixuan : "...."
From when on did Rong Xiao and Xi Wei got so close ? Then again , both were chatty , mischievous and famous in their group of friends. So it wasn"t odd for them to interact with each other. They both matched with each other pretty perfectly !
But Xi Wei and Rong Xiao still had a long way to go. For now , Rong Xinghe and Xi Yuan"s relations.h.i.+p was more important. The six men needed to first know about Rong Xinghe"s opinions regarding the internal battle Xi family was going through currently in order to take some actions.
"What is happening with Xi Yuan and Xi Fang kiddo ?", Mo Zixuan sat down beside the girl after she was done reading the business contracts.
Rong Xinghe sighed and rested her head against her bro Mo"s shoulder tiredly ,"It is really difficult for both Yuan and Fang , brother. Yuan has no problem with Fang taking over from him but Fang is in complete denial for the offer.
"Yuan thinks that it isn"t wrong for them to have a fair compet.i.tion. He believes that Fang is worthy for the position and that he can always guide him from the dark. Just like how bro Lu and bro Zhi Xi is helping me with the Rong empire. But Fang is against Yuan about this.
"Fang isn"t wrong too , though. If he is to become the CEO , the world will judge him for being an insensitive and ungrateful brother. And if he doesn"t accept the position , then his parents will pressurize him even more. I just don"t understand why they have to force him like this."
Zhi Bo smiled and covered the girl with a blanket in order to protect her from catching cold ,"Because greed can blind people , kiddo. Okay tell me one thing. What will you do if Yuan is no more Xi Corporations" CEO ? Will you leave him ? After all , you should look for stability when you select your partner."
The girl laughed and shook her head ,"You guys really want me to give up on him , right ?"
Lu Wei chuckled as he came out of the kitchen with Rong Xinghe"s coffee and pa.s.sed the cup to the girl ,"What is so good about him ? If you want support , you have six of us backing you up. If you want money , you have your brothers for that too. Hugs ? You just have to ask us. Then what do you need a boyfriend for ?"
Rong Xinghe thought for sometime before she finally replied ,"Because he respects me. He trusts me with his family and work. He understands my pain and sufferings. He loves me for who I am from inside.
"For him , I am neither a businesswoman nor the mighty Military Chief. I am just the real Rong Xinghe. The "not so perfect" Rong Xinghe. Xi Yuan has fallen for a fearless , confident and ruthless Rong Xinghe. I don"t have to hide my true self in front of him. I don"t have to act tough when he is around. I can cry in his arms and I can easily express myself clearly to him.
"You six can never be replaced from my life. But same is the case for him. A man who has loved me despite my family background , past relations.h.i.+p and risky profession , can never be replaced. Most importantly , I love that Mr. RichXi too.
"And brothers , Xinguan will always be incomplete without Yuan."
