"Xinghe... let someone else handle this. Please. Don't torture yourself like that.", said the man after sometime ,"Your brothers are as worried about you right now as they are for Mrs. Lu. Do you really have to put yourself and your family and me through this ? It is killing me to see you like this."

As she listened to the man's words , Rong Xinghe went silent for few seconds before she raised her head and looked straight into the man's eyes.

"So it's a no ?", a smile crept across the man's lips subconsciously as he shook his head helplessly.

"Indeed a 'no' , President Xi.", the girl smiled back wryly.

"But..."

"Yuan... I want to do this.", the girl sighed as she nibbed onto her man's right earlobe. Xi Yuan simply stood there in silence , allowing the girl to do whatever she wanted to do to him. He knew that the girl was trying to calm herself down. And that was exactly why he was there in the first place. To become her strength. Her courage.

Most importantly , as long as Rong Xinghe wanted something , Xi Yuan would be the last person to stand in her way. He had always loved standing beside her and fighting the entire world , rather than arguing with her. 

"What can I say then ? Just don't be too hard on yourself. You are allowed to fall , cry and weaken up , Military Chief. Always keep that in mind. Okay ?", the man smiled as he rubbed the girl's head lovingly , earning a determined nod from her.

Elite Multi-Speciality Hospital :

While the Superfamily was waiting for a word from the Surgeons operating upon Ningtao , Xi family made an entrance into the hospital along with Lu Wei's parents and little baby Alix.

"We were in the middle of a get together when we recieved the news. So we had to rush to the hospital from there directly.", explaied Lu Wei's father , as he noticed the six men's confused gazes upon them ,"Where is my daughter-in-law ? And how is she ?"

Lu Wei shook is head before he pinched the s.p.a.ce between his brows ,"She is still in the surgery , Dad. And why did you brought Alix here ? Although , she is too young to understand all of this , seeing her mother like this can surely affect her adversely. She is just a child , afterall. And Tao wouldn't want her daughter to see her in this state too. Mom..."

"Calm down , Wei.", sighed Lu Wei's mother ,"I won't obviously bring Alix in front of Tao , especially when she is so weak. But we are family and I need to be there for my daughter. There is no way I will sit at home , while Ningtao struggles to recover here."

Lu Wei let out a helpless sigh before he glanced at the Xi family elders ,"And may I know why are we troubling the Xi family ?"

At this time , Xi Yuan's father , Xi Chongkun shook his head in denial ,"Its no trouble , Wei. The Lu and the Xi family have been close acquaintances for ages now. So Ningtao's health is a matter of concern for us as well. Rest a.s.sured , if you require any kind of help , we are there for you."

Lu Wei and Zhi Xi exhanged glances among themselves before they nodded with a wry smile. "That means a lot , Mr. Xi.", said Lu Wei. 

"By the way , where is Yuan ?", Xi Chonglin spoke up after sometime. 

"He is with Xinghe right now. She wanted to investigate the case personally and he was worried about her emotional stability , so he decided to accompany her throughout the investigation.", explained Ruo Cy.

"He is at a crime scene ? Wouldn't that be too risky ?", Xi Yuan's mother , Li Jungah asked worriedly. 

"Don't worry , Mrs. Xi.", feng Mian smiled as she handed a cup of tea to the lady ,"Firstly , he is carrying his licensed revolver along with him. And trust me when I say that his reflexes are as strong as Xinghe. Secondly , he is currently with the Military Chief of the nation. The woman who can protect millions of citizens of Country X can definitely safeguard her man."

At this time , Feng Mian's phone rang up and she pulled it out before bringing it to her ears ,"What is it ?

"Oh alright , I will get there in fifteen minutes. Let me just change into my uniform.

"Yeah ! Inform the Military Chief about it quickly."

The woman then disconnected the call and looked at Zhi Al ,"Can you get my uniform from our car , honey ?"

Zhi Al took a deep breath before he nodded his head and rushed towards the exit of the hospital. Meanwhile , Feng Mian turned around to look at Lu Wei. 

"It seems like Xinghe has figured out the ident.i.ty of the attacker.", the woman said.

"Really ?", Zhi Bo raised his brows with surprise while Lu Wei simply looked up at Feng Mian.

"Yeah. Apparently , she recognized the attacker just by the shade of the nail polish upon the bathroom towel in Sister-in-law Ningtao's room. The officer was also saying something about the beads of a bracelet. Anyway , she wants to interrogate the attacker. She beleives that the mastermind is someone else. So I need to make some arrangements.", stated Feng Mian.

"Who is the attacker ?", Lu Wei frowned.

"The name is Qui Chin."

The moment the words landed upon Lu Wei's ears , he closed his eyes and buried his head in his palms. Only if he had taken some severe action against that woman when he was warned about her by Ningtao's a.s.sistant earlier , all of this might have never happened. Why did he just sent his security team ? The pain suffered by Ningtao was nothing but the results of his negligence towards the matter. d.a.m.n it ! 

Although he wanted to squish the actress akin to an ant , he had more impoertant priorities. The man rubbed his face before he glanced at Feng Mian ,"Ensure Yuan and Kidddo's security over there."

"Of course.", nodded Feng Mian.

"Bo , call my manager in. I want every single detail about this Qui Chin in next two hours. After Xinghe is done with her interrogation , she is so going to regret her very existence !"
