Xi Yuan was serving the girl food when the doorbell of the penthouse rang. Rong Xinghe opened the door and saw Luo Youyou and Li Jungah standing outside.
"Do you have any idea where Xi Yuan and his three lackeys are ?", Li Jungah asked sweetly to the girl.
"All of them are here. They intruded like robbers , by the way.", Rong Xinghe replied with a wink.
"Brats ! May we come in ?", Li Jungah shook her head helplessly.
"Oh sorry ! Please come in. ", the girl quickly invited the two ladies inside.
"Why are you here Mom?", Xi Yuan glanced at his mother and continued serving the food.
"You cooked all of this ?", Li Jungah smiled as she looked at the food being served on the table.
The man nodded ,"Hmm. For Xinghe. She was planning to have noodles , so..."
Li Jungah turned around and glared at the girl behind her ,"You are really too careless about your health. Only a healthy body can work more efficiently. Haven't you heard this ? You are handling an entire business group along with the country's security all alone. How can you do this to yourself ? Where are your brothers ? Let me scold them properly about how they are taking care of you."
When faced with Li Jungah's caring gesture , Rong Xinghe didn't dared to refute for once. She simply looked down at the floor and allowed the lady to lecture her.
After she was done scolding the girl , Li Jungah sighed ,"Why are you so much like Yuan ? He is also habitual of skipping his meals during work. You both are grown ups now. Could you stop acting like old monks please ? Come now , I will feed you. You too , young men and Ying."
Xi Yuan , Xi twins and Xi Wei nodded and grabbed one chair each for themselves. A warm smile crept across Rong Xinghe's lips when she saw the entire family sitting together and enjoying food.

Meanwhile , as she saw Li Jungah's motherly approach towards Rong Xinghe , Luo Youyou's eyes turned cold. If things were to continue like this , it would become difficult for her to separate Rong Xinghe from the Xi family later. And for the sake of her son , she had to do something as soon as possible.
"You must be something to make the globally acknowledged business tycoon Xi Yuan cook for you Ms. Xinghe. It is impressive of you to wrap the CEO of Xi corporations around your little finger , I must say.", Luo Youyou remarked sarcastically as she sat down beside the girl.
An awkward silence spread through the dining room as Rong Xinghe started coughing heavily. Why was she making it sound like she was forcing Xi Yuan to cook for her ? Her words were enough to make the girl uncomfortable.
Li Jungah frowned and patted Rong Xinghe's back worriedly ,"Its okay. Just calm down."
Xi Yuan took a deep breath to calm himself down as he stood up from his chair. He then picked up his glass of water and strode swiftly towards his silly girl. He smiled at the girl and helped her drink water patiently. When it came to Xi Yuan , Rong Xinghe was also very obedient. So as the man caressed her hair , the girl's tensed shoulders relaxed subconsciously and she breathed a sigh of relief. After all , she couldn't be too reckless or disrespectful towards his family. It was only right for him to handle this.
After Rong Xinghe stopped coughing , Xi Yuan turned around and looked at his aunt ,"Isn't it an honor to serve the Military Chief of Country X , Aunt ?"
Luo Youyou had no comeback against the man's words. After all , she could sense the coldness radiating through his body. It was best if she was to remain silent at such a time.

Rong Xinghe was stupefied by the man's cold approach as well. But then again , after everything he had gone through , his tolerance towards his family was already commendable. She couldn't help but sigh when she noticed Luo Youyou not uttering a single word against Xi Yuan. Clearly , even the Xi family didn't dared to provoke this man !

After the family was done with dinner , Li Jungah and Luo Youyou left the penthouse and headed towards Xi family home.
"Why did you said those things , Youyou ? What was the point of making the kids uncomfortable ?", Li Jungah asked to the woman beside her.
Luo Youyou smiled as she replied ,"I don't know why I did that but I don't think I was wrong. Didn't you noticed how our children were obeying her every word ? It somehow felt like she had possessed their minds and hearts. And according to me , Xi family is not something anyone can just toy with. Our family has the ability to shake the entire finance ministry of Country X overnight , after all. Then how can our kids be someone's pushovers ?"
After some seconds of silence , Li Jungah let out a gentle laugh ,"Country X's finance ministry can face disasters even if Lu family or Zhi family trades their shares abroad. Then what is so mighty about us ? Rong Xinghe's every brother has the capability to turn the nation upside down in the blink of an eye. Moreover , Rong Xinghe is a sweet girl. With her personality , even if our children are possessed by her , she would push them towards successes , and not failures."
Luo Youyou was stunned when she heard Li Jungah's words. She had never expected her to be so caring towards Rong Xinghe. But it was now that she realized how wrong she was about her analysis. Li Jungah was obviously deeply impressed by Rong Xinghe.
"Then what about her family ?", Luo Youyou changed the path of discussion.
"What about it ? The Rongs are not even worth mentioning. Let us not even talk about those disgusting people. Although our children received lack of parental love during their childhood , we didn't at least tried to kill our own flesh and blood. But the Rongs were just a bunch of psychos.", Li Jungah clenched her fists angrily when she thought about the news headlines from years ago.
"We shouldn't come to conclusions so soon, sister Jungah. After all , it takes two hands to initiate a clap. There must have been a reason as to why the Rong family had hurt their own kin. And if discrimination was the case , why weren't Rong Xiao and other girls of their family hurt as well ?", Luo Youyou sowed the seed doubt in Li Jungah's mind.
Evidently , her efforts weren't worthless. Li Jungah didn't said anything after that. It was actually worth putting some thought into. Compared to Rong Xinghe , other girls in the Rong family had never been accustomed to that much of sufferings. This actually made Li Jungah think if there was a second side to the story.
But she was obviously going to be cautious of her actions. She had already hurt her son during his childhood. By doing anything reckless this time , she wasn't going to rip herself and Xi Yuan apart any further. Most importantly , she liked Rong Xinghe very much. The girl was the perfect match for her son. For a man as dignified as Xi Yuan , Rong Xinghe's elegant aura was a pure and ideal completion.
