The 3 B's- Beauty, Brains and Bravery

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 .

Damn 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 hell 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 hell 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 compassionate. 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 .contemporary romance

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 .
