"You are very important to me , Ma'jolie !"
After sometime ,
Xi Yuan entered the hospital room while the Xi siblings waited outside . They had no interest in the PDA that was going to take place inside .
Rong Xinghe smiled at the man as she patted the edge of her bed gesturing him to sit down .
Xi Yuan couldn't express the feelings in his heart currently . He was practically dying to see this mesmerising smile on her face again.
He slowly walked over and sat down as the girl had indicated him to do so .
He then took her hand into his as he looked into her eyes , " How do you feel now ?! "
" I am better . It is still troublesome to walk and jump around , though . But don't worry ! I will be back to my strong Xinghe mode soon ! " , the girl shrugged .
Xi Yuan smiled and shifted one of the girl's hair locks behind her ears by his long and warm fingers .
But for some unknown reason , when his fingers brushed along the smooth skin of her cheeks , the girl felt an electric sensation flow throughout her body as her back stiffened !
What ....
What the heck was that ?!!
Xi Yuan then again covered her hands in his warm ones as he sighed and looked down !
Rong Xinghe sensed the man's discomfort as she asked , " Yuan ! What is wrong ? Do you want to tell me something ?! "
Xi Yuan's back stiffened when he heard the girl .
Share the reason behind his discomfort ?!
Tell her about his past ?!
Open up about the most dreadful chapter of his life ?!
She was asking his to reminisce something that he wanted to forget so badly .....
He didn't wanted to hide anything from her .....
But he wasn't completely prepared to share his past !
So he decided to tell her the partial truth ...
" Xinghe , You know I was always an introvert . I never liked too many people around me since I was a child . Naturally , I had a very small circle of friends . And even in my family , excluding my cousins Ying , Fang and Wei , it were only my grandparents who were close to me . Xi family had many internal fights among themselves and my parents rarely gave me any attention as they were busy fighting for the chair of CEO of Xi Corps. Eventually , after some years , Ying , Fang and Wei , all went abroad for high school education . I didn't went because grandfather would never let me away from his sight .
" You know just after one year , I lost both , my grandmother and grandfather together in an .... uh ..... incident . Xinghe , I was all alone . You know , all of a sudden , I was left with no one . I can't ..... " , the man's voice choked as he tried to control his emotions .
He continued , " Xinghe ... You are the first person I have opened myself in front of . You are the first person I have allowed to walk into my life after my grandparents' death . You are very important to me , Ma'jolie !!! So I am obviously scared to lose you . I was terrified when I came to know about this incident . I ... "
Xi Yuan stopped talking as he clenched his fists to control his emotions.
It was the first time that Rong Xinghe had witnessed this weak and vulnerable side of Xi Yuan .
She tilted her head as she looked into the man's deep eyes .
She didn't knew why , but she could relate to those feelings deep inside him .
This man had also gone through the same helplessness and loneliness that she had once gone through .
This man had the same pain and ability to hide his feelings like her .
When the man said that she was important to him , she felt warmth flowing through her heart .
Rong Xinghe knew one thing for sure . His grandparents' death was an extremely sensitive topic for him .
It must have been the reason behind this pain .
She thought it was better to not bring that up in front of him unless he wanted to talk about it.
" At least , your grandparents loved you .... " , the girl smiled bitterly .
Xi Yuan looked at the girl and he felt as if he had committed a crime .
F*ck !!!
How could he forget that she had a very sour relationship with the Rong family ?!
Sour relationship was an understatement . Unlike him , his girl hated the entire Rong family , especially , her grandparents !!
How could he brag about his perfect bonding with his family to a person who never had a family ?!
Could he be anymore cruel ?!
" I am sorry , Xinghe . I didn't ... "
" Its alright ! How long can I run away from it ?! " , the girl shrugged.
Rong Xinghe cupped the man's handsome face with her cold hands as she said , " I will be fine . Its all fine . "
For almost 30 seconds , the man and the woman stared into each other's eyes without even realising it !
They both felt that , all of a sudden , their relationship had gotten even more strong .
Xi Yuan was about to say something , but at this time , the door to the hospital room opened again .
" Xiao Xinghe !!! Are you fine now ?!! " , Xi Wei rushed inside the room as he couldn't control his anxiety anymore .
" Yes , Xiao Xinghe ! Do we need to call the doctors ?! " , Xi Fang also entered followed by Xi Ying and William .
" You all have been here for the past two days ?! " , the girl raised her eyebrows in surprise .
The four people nodded their heads vigorously .
" Don't worry ! I am fine ! " , Rong Xinghe sighed helplessly.
She had no idea that she had worried them so much .
___________
Next 15 days were the most relaxing days for Rong Xinghe .
None of her brothers or sister-in-laws allowed her to even get off the bed.
Her brothers personally cooked food for her every day .
Xi Yuan visited her daily along with the Xi trio . Occasionally , he also brought some NGO kids with him so that she could chat with them .
William also visited her every now and then to play card games and chat with her .
Regarding the army , she handled almost everything from home .
She was also told that the terrorist organisation behind the entire incident was wiped out overnight , just one day after her surgery.
Xi Yuan and her brothers were rendered speechless when they saw the girl's regret that she couldn't handle it herself and that someone else had already dealt with the matter .
She so wanted to destroy the terrorist organisation her own way but somehow , it just vanished in one night .
Not fair !!!
