Rong Xinghe was shocked when she heard the man's words. As she saw this strong man pouring out all his pain in form of tears , her heart couldn't help but ache for him. She had never expected Xi Yuan to have gone through sothing that terrifying. She couldn't even describe the tornt his heart was in. All she could do was to listen to him and try to free him from this endless soreness.
The girl pulled the man towards her and hugged him tightly. She hoped that his pain could just transfer into her at that ti. Subconsciously , Rong Xinghe's eyes turned red too and warm drops of tears flowed down her cheeks. She didn't knew why , but she was feeling the man's pain today.
Xi Yuan hugged the girl back and just like the 15 year old boy he was back then , he cried silently as he rested his head on her shoulders.
"Why ? Why did they have to leave like that Xinghe ? Both grandfather and grandmother were lying in front of in their own pool of blood. I can't forget their pain ever. I can't forget anything about that day ever , damn it !
"By the ti I could jump out from the shadows to fight them , the attackers had already left. I rushed back towards my grandparents hurriedly and held their hands with a scared expression. My grandfather smiled at gently and separated his hand from mine before he grabbed my grandmother's hand. Grandfather looked at and whispered 'I am proud of you' weakly. They both looked at each other as tears slipped down the old couple's eyes. Grandmother's grip on grandfather's hand strengthened when she said 'Ti to leave , dear' with all the remaining strength in her body.
"After that , they said nothing. I kept begging to them but they didn't uttered a single word. Xinghe , they left ! They both left all alone in that street and in this world.
"Initially , I thought they had just fainted. It wasn't that I didn't knew what had happened but I was too scared to accept the reality. I had no phone with because we had left the house in a hurry. So I requested for a passerby to lend one. I quickly called the ambulance and inford my parents. Oh ! Did I told you that when I called my dad , my parents and my uncle and aunt were arguing in Xi Office's eting room in front of the shareholders ?
"When I reached hospital along with grandfather and grandmother , doctors looked at with sympathy and told that they had left the world an hour ago already. Xinghe , I just couldn't accept it. How could I ? They both had practically brought up. They were my inspiration , my friends , my everything. My soul left my body that day , Xinghe.
"By the ti my parents and uncle-aunt arrived at the hospital , all my tears had already dried down. My mom rushed towards and hugged tightly but I just couldn't feel any pain anymore. No fear , no uncertainty was left inside . I separated my parents from and called the butler of our family. Can you believe that a 15 year old boy was directing him for the funeral rituals ? All I cared about , at that ti , was my grandparents' cremation. My parents and uncle-aunt couldn't stop themselves from breaking down when they saw like that.
"You know I even saw my uncle and father hugging each other. Funny , right ? My grandparents had to die for this to happen !
"The fact that Xi family elders' death was due to lack of security could plumt Xi empire's stocks. So the family decided to hide the truth from the world and made the incident look like an accident. I also didn't cared about what the world knew about my grandparents. After all , I was going to plot the revenge myself eventually.
"Fang , Ying and Wei also returned back soon. Without all the grandchildren , the funeral couldn't take place. So after the cremation , I placed all my focus on the business. The first thing I did was to ask your brothers to train completely with business managent. Senior Lu and Senior Zhi helped with everything. I have no words to express my gratitude to them for that. So here I am today and this was my story."
Rong Xinghe hugged the man more tightly after he finished speaking. The more she listened to him , the more pain she felt. It turned out that the man she liked had once went through a lot of pain as well.
Xi Yuan realized that the girl was shivering in his arms and he quickly separated her from him before he covered her with his jacket. He then sighed as he saw the silly girl helplessly before he patted her back.
Rong Xinghe smiled at the man and wiped the tear drops away from the corner of his eyes ,"How do you feel now ?"
Xi Yuan smiled as he noticed the girl's struggles to pacify him ,"I've never felt this relieved before. Haven't I said this earlier that even your touch is miraculous ? Thank you for listening , Ma'jolie. Actually , I..."
Before the man could say anything else to her , the girl leaned onto him without any second thought and brushed her lips against his. She didn't even gave him enough ti to catch his breath. The couple kept kissing each other for few good seconds till they both were out of breath.
When they both separated , Rong Xinghe grabbed the man's collar and yelled at him ,"This is the punishnt for bottling up that much poisonous pain inside yourself for all these years , Mr. Xi !"
Xi Yuan tucked the girl's hair strands behind her ear as he replied to her softly ,"I wasn't able to open up to anyone else other than you. I tried to tell Fang earlier but I just couldn't. I am sorry."
Rong Xinghe sighed and rested her head on Xi Yuan's shoulder ,"Why did you suddenly decided to tell ?"
"Because I didn't wanted my girl to be left in the dark. I plan to marry you Xinghe. I want to live every second of my life with you. That's why , I wanted you to know how my family was once like. Even now , it will be your choice whether to be cautious of them or not. Rest assured , I will protect you all my life. Xinghe , I just want to know whether you will consider our relationship after knowing about my family. Or will you leave after everything I told you today ?"
Rong Xinghe looked at the man seriously and after thinking for soti , the girl placed a kiss on man's cheek tenderly.
"I will never leave you , Mr. Xi Yuan.", were the words she said to the man.
"Because I might have already fallen in love with you !", were the words her heart told her that night.
