《The 3 B’s- Beauty , Brains And Bravery》The 3 B's- Beauty , Brains And Bravery
Advertisement
The girl kept looking at the TV screen with a blank expression. Zhi Al had already woken up by now. So as soon as he and Xi Yuan listened to the news content , they rushed inside the girl's bedroom. They knew that this was a grave matter for Rong Xinghe. The armed forces were literally her second family. She had lived with these soldiers for five years and that she herself knew what it meant to be a soldier.
And this was Zhi Al's prior concern. The only thing he could hope for was that his kiddo wouldn't take any decision that would prove to be dangerous and risky later. Although he knew that Rong Xinghe wasn't an impulsive individual , he still had his worries. After all , this involved the lives of three soldiers hailing from Country X's armed forces.
As the two men entered the girl's bedroom , there was no one but an empty bed. Only the sound of water flowing could be heard from the other side of bathroom door. The two men glanced at each other silently for sometime before Zhi Al sat down on the stool beside him.
"Actually , I..."
"Its alright. I saw Mian opening door for you last night. And since Xinghe was mumbling your name throughout the entire night , I didn't had the heart to kick you out of my house as well.", just when Xi Yuan was about to explain his presence to the man , Zhi Al cut in and smiled at him wryly.
"Oh.", said Xi Yuan , in a daze , before his eyes landed over the TV screen in front of him. The moment he saw the headlines of the channel , the incident from eleven years back started floating in front of his eyes. The man couldn't help but think about the death of his grandparents.

As Zhi Al saw Xi Yuan clenching his fists subconsciously , he took a deep breath and stood up from his seat ,"Was your Uncle Chonglin really involved in that incident , Yuan ? I mean what was the relationship between this underworld gang and a businessman like himself ?"
"I don't know. I thought that Xinghe was investigating the matter but she recently told me that she didn't wanted to sour her relationship with my family elders under the virtue of a plain possibility. She believes that only I can confront him and talk this out. She wants me to face the problem because..."
"Because you were the one who had witnessed the murder ?", Zhi Al completed the man's sentence.
He knew his sister more than anyone. And clearly , she wanted Xi Yuan to plan his own revenge. But could Xi Yuan really do it ? After all , taking actions against closed ones had never been easy for anyone.
"Yeah.", Xi Yuan sighed ,"I would be having a word with him soon. I have also hired some investigators regarding the matter. Currently , I am just waiting for the results."
"And what if he is actually involved with the murder ?"
"As the CEO of Xi Corporations , how much time do you think it will take me for firing a major shareholder , Mr. Al ?", Xi Yuan asked back in an indifferent tone ,"And of course , circumstances wouldn't be just limited to that."
As Zhi Al looked into the man's eyes , he felt a familiar aura radiating through him. This was the exact reaction Rong Xinghe had when she had seen Rong Yufan for the first time after one year of the train incident. The only difference was that the hostility , rage and menace in Xi Yuan's eyes were more deep than that of Rong Xinghe. From the looks of it , this man was no simple.

And this was the type of man he had always wanted for his kiddo. Only a man like Xi Yuan could complement his sister. Only he could keep her safe. Not that she needed any man for her security. But it was always a nice idea to be loved by someone so dearly.
At this time , Rong Xinghe walked out of the washroom and sat down on the bed. The girl was wearing one of Zhi Al's t-shirt along with her camouflage cargo pants. The girl quickly connected her phone with the bluetooth ear-piece and called Shou Wu before she started tying her shoe laces.
"I am going to the base of the Werewolf Crew. Send me the information regarding the gang members and their leader as soon as possible.", the girl ordered as soon as Shou Wu picked up the call.
Before Shou Wu could say anything , Xi Yuan rushed towards the girl and pulled the phone from her hands ,"I would suggest Mr. Shou to not follow Military Chief's orders. Let me talk to her first. Okay ?"
"Sure , Sir !", Shou Wu replied with a sigh of relief. It was literally like the big Boss had just saved him from a destructive tornado.
Xi Yuan then disconnected the call and looked straight into Rong Xinghe's eyes ,"I will handle this. Just answer me one question. Do you trust me ?"
"Yuan , I...", the girl frowned ,"Of course , I trust you with my life ! But this involves the honour of a female soldier. It involves the lives of three military officers , for god's sake. I can't just take the risk."
"So you will put your life in danger ? Just like that ?", the man asked after few seconds of silence.
Rong Xinghe , obviously knew what her darling's silence meant. He was upset with her. Most importantly , this was the first time for the couple to settle upon a disagreement.
"This is my job , Yuan.", the girl said helplessly.
"Do you think you are in the right state of mind at this point of time , Xinghe ? No. And that is what I am worried about the most. I am not eligible to question your professionalism. But this isn't the Military Chief I know. You always work with a plan.", the man tried to explain his concerns.
"I don't have time to plan , Yuan !", the girl raised her voice , slightly annoyed.
Xi Yuan remained silent for sometime , making the girl realize her mistake. The girl then bit her lips and cupped the man's face worriedly ,"Yuan , I am so sorry... I just..."
"Three hours. All your soldiers will be out of the Werewolf Crew's base in the next three hours. Till then , simply stay here.", said the man , in a dull tone before he turned around to face Zhi Al ,"Sir , can you please take care of her for the time being ?"
"You do realize that she is my sister , right ?", Zhi Al rolled his eyes.
"Yuan ! Please don't go like this. I am sorry , honey. I shouldn't have had screamed...", the girl tried to stop the man.
But by this time , Xi Yuan had already walked out of Zhi Al's appartment. As a result , the girl's heart dropped down. How could she talk to her darling like that ? How could she yell at him ?
