The girl's body stiffened.
She screamed even louder.
Lu Wei had just checked upon her and left her room not too long ago when he heard the cries of the girl.
He quickly ran back inside to see her!
He reached to find her shaking and struggling in sleep as if she was drowning.
He took steady but soft steps towards her bed and sat at the edge of the bed .
Slowly , he took her cold hands in his warm ones and placed his other hand on her forehead tenderly.
The girl could still not calm down.
The moment he heard her say , " Bro Wei ! It pains !" , Lu Wei felt an unbearable pain in his heart.
That night , was she screaming just like this while laying on the railway tracks.
She expected her six brothers to be there for her , but none of them was near her.
He had failed as a brother.
They had failed as brothers.
His guilt , regret and self- blame couldn't be explained.
Lu Wei gently laid besides Rong Xinghe as he covered her in blanket and hugged her . He placed her head on his shoulder .
This little action was quite helpful for her...
The girl started to calm down.....
This.....
This was the familiar feeling of warmth .....
Someone she trusted was near her...
Her brother was besides her.
She knew it !
Lu Wei whispered in the girl's ears as he observed the change , " Xiao Xinghe , Brother is here . Calm down ! ! " .
This one sentence was enough to calm down the girl.
Yes ! She was not all alone.
She had someone besides her.
With these subconscious thoughts , the girl drifted back to sleep.
Meanwhile , Lu Wei just looked at her sleeping soundly.
She still wasn't able to forget that incident and that frightening night .

She was merely 13 year old , when she had suffered that pain.
She was still going through the after effects of that incident.
She had started to get those dreadful dreams of that night almost every now and then.
Even though ,she broke off all her ties with the Rong family , she was still suffering.
This girl had grown up to be a strong woman , who would stand against the world and fight for the right cause.
But to him , she was still his kiddo-sis who had looked in the eyes of death.
His heart hurt for her.
Today , the whole world was singing the glory of legendary Rong Xinghe.
But he had seen the most painful chapter of her story .
He had seen the toughest time of her life.
He had seen her crying every night with the longing of a mother and father by her side.
He had seen her weaken , when she saw grandparents being over-protective of their grandchildren.
To her , these six was a family , but he still couldn't deny the fact that she had gone through a hell of pain and he couldn't decrease it...
.....
Next day ....
In Military Chief residence ....
"What?You actually called him a bartender!?"
Songyan looked shockingly at Rong Xinghe .
Was this girl for real ?
"Do you even know who he is? He is XI YUAN , madame Xinghe !!!"
Rong Xinghe shook her head like a little child who was being scolded for something she had not even done intentionally.
Don't you dare appear in front of me , William!
You traitor !
How dare you tell her ?
"Xiao Xinghe , he is the eldest son of Xi family. He is a very decent man . You might not know , but other than you , he is the only one person in the world who has been trained by your Bro Lu Wei and Bro Zhi Xi in business management. He has expanded the business in multiple directions and in multiple countries . You actually called him a bartender and made him make you a drink ?!" Songyan blabbered all the information she had about Xi Yuan .

"What's the big deal ? " , suddenly came the voice of Zhi Xi from end of the door.
"I know him and he is not that petty to take things like these to heart . And even if he is offended , he would know who he is dealing with . He won't have the guts to plot a revenge against her . She has six brothers , not to mention , she is military chief herself. Chill down ."
Then he looked at her sister and gave her a thumbs up , "I am proud of you ! "
Zhi Xi's phone rang and he went out to pick it up while Songyan pouted like a small kid and looked in other direction.
Her husband was too much ! Not just supporting her but provoking such behaviour !
There should be limits to spoiling her .
Meanwhile , Rong Xinghe rolled her eyes. Brother , there was nothing to be proud about !
But , she couldn't do anything. According to the temperament of her brothers , they wouldn't care even if she burnt a house !
Rong Xinghe could not understand just one thing .....
Just who was this man ? Because of him , she was being scolded by her own people from last night till now ?
First her 'best friend' and now 'sis-in-law'....
Bah!
She had no time to deal with it ,she had to go to Military Chief office, but, she couldn't leave her sister-in-law upset just like that.
She had to come up with something quick.
"Yan Jie , I love you!" Rong Xinghe made puppy eyes.
"Hmphhh!" , Songyan was still angry.
"Yan Jie , so what if i called him a bartender ? At least , i thought of him as a 'Woah ! What a hot guy' bartender." Rong Xinghe said without thinking anything else.
Songyan's attitude took a complete 180° turn , "Really?!" , eyes full of plans taking birth in her mind at the moment.
She was completely surprised and excited after hearing this.
Wait , What did I just say? Did I actually called him that ?
Whatever , as long as she was happy again.
"Yeah ! ! ! My sis-in-law sure has eyes for men ! " Songyan was completely satisfied.
At least she still had a chance of living a normal life.
At least , she could still date like a 22 year old should.
She could still have a boyfriend!
....
Rong Xinghe immediately rushed to the Military Chief office.
Today , she had a meeting with all the higher ups of Country X's Navy.
She had to deal with the security crisis and equipment supply to the Naval Forces. She also had to come up with production plan of submarines for the year and had to discuss the structure of the new aircraft carrier with the engineers working for Navy.
She also had to introduce herself to the staff of Military Chief office.
It was going to be long day ....
