Chapter 99: " I want ... a hug ! "
Meanwhile , Rong Xinghe reached the hotel and rushed to her booked VIP suite.
As soon as she closed the door , she leaned against it and sat down on the floor with its support as she started crying .
She didn't knew why , but she was feeling pain .
She knew that what she did was the right decision to make , but for some certain reason , she was regretting it .
She was aware that Xi Yuan meant no pain for her , but she still rejected him so apathetically and emotionlessly.
He really sounded very genuine .
How could she hurt a man like him ?!
This girl was never ruthless , and nor was she nonchalant or insensitive .
She knew that Xi Yuan must have had felt pain when she had rejected him , because she had felt the sincerity in his voice when he was confessing her .
He had promised her that she would always find a home in him and that he would love her unconditionally all his life .
Only she knew how much she had wanted all this back then ....
But now , she feared those false promises .contemporary romance
Zhou Che had also promised her a forever , a home and his love .
But in the end ..... what happened ?
She now feared love !
And she didn't wanted to give him fake promises , just like Zhou Che had given her.
She didn't wanted him to be with a person whose life would always be on edge .
She didn't wanted him to love a person who would always prioritize Country X more than him .
She didn't wanted a man as excellent as him to be tied down with the oaths of endless love that might never be fulfilled .
About her feelings for him , she really felt a sense of warmth in his presence .
Whenever she looked at his handsome and calm face , she felt a strange reassurance that everything was going to be fine.
She hated to come in sensual and physical contact with other men , but for some unknown reason , she would always be comfortable around him .
But whenever she thought about love , her heart trembled with fright and uncertainty .
And she ... just ran away from that topic .
If one was to explain her feelings about love , then they would say that this girl had gone through so much pain , that she had stopped believing in it.
She had gained an escapist tendency to run away from love and romance and had quite complex feelings for him .
__________
The girl kept crying for almost an hour. She was so sensitive towards the man's feelings that she was literally feeling his pain .
If anyone would have seen this girl in such a messed up state , they would have never believed that she was the almighty and invincible Military Chief , the Iron Lady , the tigress of Country X !
But this was how this girl was .
Fiercest and most dangerous when professional , but emotional and compassionate in personal life .
That was the reason she was loved by so many people .
She just had too pure of a heart .
_____________
The girl was still crying on the floor by the door when her phone rang .
She glanced at the screen to check the caller ID. It was her eldest brother , Lu Wei .
Damn !
Why now ?!
I can't let them know about all this !
Rong Xinghe never ignored their calls because emergencies were normal as all the six of them had influential identities .
The girl wiped her cheeks hurriedly and drank the water on the side table to readjust her voice before she picked up the call .
" Hello , kiddo ! Your speech was spectacular in the Military Gathering ! Sorry , I couldn't call you earlier because I had a lot of work to take care of. Zhi Xi and I were just talking about you , so we thought of congratulating you ! " , Lu Wei said happily .
" Thank you , Bro Lu ! "
" Kiddo , are you crying ?! Why do your voice sound so hoarse and heavy ?! " , Lu Wei's voice suddenly became anxious .
Crap ! She just said four words and he already knew that she was crying !
How the hell did she even thought that she could hide something from them ?!
They knew her more than she knew herself.
But she didn't wanted to worry them , " No ! No ! I am fine. "
" You have been clearly crying ! Did someone say something to you ?! " , Zhi Xi's worried voice came from the other end .
" I... am really ... "
" What is it , Xinghe ? What happened ? " , Lu Wei asked gently just like a father would .
He had always been the most calm one amongst the seven siblings .
He knew how to deal with this girl very well .
As soon as the man's tender and pleasant voice fell on Rong Xinghe's ears , she couldn't held back and started crying again , " I don't ... want .... to tell. I want .... a hug ! "
All she needed right now was a warm giant bear hug from any of her brothers.
That was the only thing that could possibly calm her down .
But she knew it was not possible , so she simply disconnected the call .
Hell !
Now , they would worry for the entire time until they would see her .

Meanwhile ,
In Zhi Corps. Headquarters , Portland , Maine :
Lu Wei and Zhi Xi stared at the phone which was cut by their lady luck.
After sometime , Zhi Xi took a deep breath and called his assistant , " Prepare my private jet right now. We will leave in half an hour for the New York City. Wei is going to be with me as well. "
" But why are we going there , Sir ?! " , the old assistant BV was confused .
" Why are we going there ? We are going there to hug her. " , Lu Wei smiled slightly .
Her wish , their command .
After all , it was rare for this girl to request for something. And she seemed really shattered making their heart ache. Her tears were , obviously , their biggest weakness.
Only when they would see her , would they feel at ease now .
So just like that , the two men landed in New York in 1 hour 45 minutes after their call with the girl .
