The Night is Young…!

In country London, at Sky Garden Bar.

People are busy watching the spectacular view of London city, enjoying their drink to the core.

Laughter can be heard at the topmost floor, from a group of friends. Well their laughter, fun time was interrupted by the very next moment from a call.

A girl donned in black clothes took the phone and walked out from there.

One can see a spectacular view of the city through glass window, taking the deep breath, the girl answered the call.

"Hello dear! Looks like busy!" a man's voice echoed.

"Was busy" came the reply from the girl.

"Well attend tomorrow's banquet" the man's words continued...

"Oh Sorry I Forgot! Can you postpone it?" asked the girl.

"No worries! All you have to do it catch tonight's flight" man ordered.

"Alright!" girl said annoyingly while disconnecting the call.

Looking at the city view, she sighed.

"Brother where are you! I'm missing you badly... I'll find you soon" in a low assuring voice she mumbled herself.

"Hey Xia...!" a caramel brown haired girl called her.

Hearing her friend's voice Xia turned around.

People present there looked at her in awe.

Small delicate face, extremely attractive brown eyes that has hidden deep secrets, reddish brown hair flowing through her shoulder, one can marvel at her enchanting beauty.

"Heyaa!" Xia smiled looking at her friend Ellie.

"Still upset over the phone call...?" Ellie asked her, concern was written all over her face.

Five years ago, she met this beautiful girl Xia, who has saved her from the angel of death. She taught her how to be strong, brave and fearless and made one of her. Due to her, she got wonderful group of five friends that includes herself and Xia, Daniel, Clara, Hunter, Leo making it into a group of six now.

"No! Let's get going!" Xia's voice brought back Ellie to her senses.

"Looks like it's time to return" Ellie said walking towards their table.

"Hmm YES!" Xia responded half dejectedly.

After spending some more time with her friends, Xia bid farewell, while Assistant Chao handing over her a jacket. They were headed to airport.

While looking at their best friend who's leaving abruptly, the group of five started worrying,

"Looks like she wasn't a bit interested to return." said Clara.

"She makes us worry." Hunter and Leo said.

"I think her grandfather knows our other identity especially hers. Is this, his way of stopping her from what she's doing?" curious Ellie voiced her thoughts.

"But she knows that she have us. And that's why we need to finish this mission as soon as possible." comforting his worried friends, Daniel got up urging them.....

"Well, the meet up is setup next week" said Hunter, to which everyone followed, "Cool! Let the storm begin"

"Alright everyone let's get back to work! The night is young." said Clara leaving with her friends.

On the way to the airport, there was an unsual silence inside the car, while the city was buzzing with beautiful lights and honks sound.

Cellphone rang to break the silence….

Looking at the caller's name, Xia smiled half-heartedly….

"I don't wanna see you in our home." came a loud threatening woman's voice over the phone.

Feeling bitter, Xia said in a low voice "Alright! No worries" the phone went off….

A single tear escaped from her eyes, yet she smirked making her face appear devilish… well the thing she was experiencing was hurt/pain one couldn't grasp.

Assistant Chao didn't miss this, said worryingly,

"Young Miss, you know the nature of Second Madam… After All…."

Xia heard him, "I'm fine! But was that my fault…???" her answer made him shut up!

Sighing! she bid farewell to this beautiful city… boarded the plane.

By the time, they reached X country, it was already past midnight.

Zhi Xia stepped down from the plane, the moment her feet touched the ground, making her tremble slightly.

No one knows yet that, the moment she landed on this country, chaos gonna bubble up.

Facing the bright night moon, she smiled! The people around her were slightly taken aback, appreciating her alluring face. While, she had too many questions in her mind.

Not too far, a black Maybach was parked, a man in his early 60's was gazing at his grand-daughter, who's been away from them for 9 long years.

A ray of silver hope shined in his eyes while thinking himself, hope now it's time for pieces to fall into their respective place, but little do they know that, there're some pieces yet to be shattered, before returning into its place.

Brushing his thoughts aside, he walked forward to welcome his beloved grand-daughter...., to the outside world he's the ruthless chairman of Zhi Group- Zhi Dafu.

Alas, he's just like a doting grand-father but, only to her.

Zhi Xia ran over to him greeting, "Hello Grandpa! I missed you."

Grandpa Zhi hugged her happily saying, "I missed you too dear... You've grownup into a pretty lady... Just like ...."

"My Brother..." Xia interrupted him.

Seeing her eyes shine brightly just by the slight mention of her brother, Grandpa Zhi concealed his sadness, agreeing to her words, "Yes my dear both of you resemble your father..."

Behind this duo, came a man who's in early 40's wearing a formal suit, he's the Second Master of Zhi family, current Vice President of Zhi Group, Zhi Xuan.

Ever since Zhi family's First Master Zhi Zihan, the President of Company and his wife went missing, the company's President's position fell vacant. Till now the Chairman, the VP and the interim CEO are managing.

Everyone assumed that if it's not for that accident, the President's family, that's Xia's parents and her brother wouldn't have gone missing, except her being safe....

Second Master, Zhi Xuan smiled greeting at Xia, "Welcome home princess."

Xia responded with a half-smile "Thanks Uncle." Zhi Xuan stopped smiling, showing little displeasure.

They turned to go home.

Grandpa Zhi said "Come child. Let's go!"

"Boss, Car is ready" came the voice from Assistant Chao who's handling with luggage.

"HMM Grandpa, I'll go to my apartment. Will visit you tomorrow."

Hearing her saying those words, Grandpa showed displeasure, "Why? What's wrong? Don't you want to come to your home? Did anyone stop you?"

Bombarded with so many questions Xia turned to her grandfather and said, "No Grandpa! It's just, I like it there. I'll be back when the brother returns."

Listening this, their faces changed. Finally, not getting a chance to bring her back. They turned around to go back home.

Before getting into the car, Grandpa warned her,

"Don't forget tomorrow's banquet..."

Glaring at her grandfather, Xia reverted back "FINEEEEEE!"

After sending off them, Xia got into the car moving towards her apartment region.

Looking towards the window, there can be seen a lot of emotions in her eyes, whether it's overwhelming or the anxious or nostalgic due to memories, one couldn't decipher.

Noticing this,

Assistant Chao couldn't help but worrying for her asking, "Boss! Are you fine?"

"Yes" came the reply from her.

No one could tell, what's going on her mind, the calmness was due to her will or the weather. No idea!
