"Please say you didn't really told him about that !", the girl glared at her brothers angrily.
"They didn't. But thanks to you , I finally know about all of that.", at this ti , Xi Yuan's voice resonated throughout the room as the man opened his eyes and sat up straight on the couch ,"And honestly , you were just adorable as a child , sweetheart."
The girl pouted like a little four year old as she buried her face into her hands ,"We never had this conversation , Mr. Xi !"
"Okay.", the man smiled warmly ,"Did you sleep comfortably last night ? How is your injury now ?"
"I am fine now. My head isn't paining anymore too.", the girl replied quikly ,"Anyway , I will have to skip the eting at Rong Corps today. Since the three finest business tycoons are sitting beside here today , I would like to know who will attend the eting on my behalf ?"
The three n looked at each other before they replied to the girl , together ,"In your dreams !"
"What ?!", the girl asked with a shocked expression. How could all of them reject her at the sa ti ? Was this the result of their 'strong bonding' ? Damn !
"We are too busy for that , Kiddo.", Zhi Xi said as he stood up from the couch. He then picked up all his docunts and started arranging them properly.
"Exactly.", added Xi Yuan , while checking his e-mails.
"Sorry kiddo.", Lu Wei said as he rubbed the girl's head tenderly.
Rong Xinghe squinted her eyes at the three n before she snatched away Lu Wei's phone and made a phone call after unlocking it.
"Hello ?", a soft voice ca through the other end of the phone.
"Sister-in-law Ningtao , its ! Your baby Xinghe !", the girl started talking in such a pitiful tone , that it was easily able to convince Ningtao that sothing really serious had happened.
"What did your brother do now ?", the woman asked in a strict tone ,"Where is he ?"
"He... denied to go to the business eting for . I don't want to exhaust him but if that was the case , then why did he promised in the first place ? I will have to reschedule everything now !", the girl complained , as she looked like she was about to break down.
"Even if he hadn't promised you , as your brother , it is his duty and responsibility to take care of your health and comfort. Just give him the phone , Xinghe !", commanded Ningtao.
"Okay.", the girl nodded her head obediently before she passed the phone to her brother.
By this ti , Lu Wei , Zhi Xi and Xi Yuan were already looking at the girl with an expression of disbelief. Was she for real ? She always had an ace up her sleeve !
"Good morning , Tao.", the man greeted his wife sweetly.
"Morning. Did I just heard that you aren't helping Xinghe with the business , Mr. Lu ?", the lady asked in an interrogative manner.
"Nope. Nothing like that.", Lu Wei denied quickly.
"So it ans you are going to the eting ?"
"Yep.", the man glanced at the little lady devil before he answered back to his Queen.
"Better...You aren't allowed to hurt my girl.", Ningtao smiled ,"Anyways , I will be leaving for City M today. I have to shoot a scene there. Mom and Dad will be taking care of Alix , okay ?"
"Alright. Just take care of yourself too."
"Hmm. I love you.", the woman mumbled as she went back to sleep. This pair of brother and sister were going to be the death of her one day !
As soon as the man disconnected the call , Rong Xinghe smirked at the three n as she raised her brows at them ,"So ! I thought no one was going to help out with the eting... How co this happened ?"
Xi Yuan : "...."
Lu Wei : "..."
Zhi Xi : "..."

11:00 p.m. , Elite Saphhire Penthouse
Xi Yuan entered his place to be welcod by the Xi trio , William Young , Rong Xiao , Daniel Wilson and Isabella Wilson. The entire group was sitting comfortably in the living room as they chatted among themselves. The man furrowed his brows and pulled out his phone to check the ti. How co he had no idea that a 'get together' was planned ?
"Bro !", Xi Wei noticed the man and rushed towards him excitedly ,"We were just waiting for you."
"And may I know the reason behind it ?", the man asked as he loosened his tie and unbuttoned his suit. He already had a pretty tiring and hectic day. This better be good , he hoped.
"Well... Sister-in-law's birthday is coming. Rember ?", the man smiled cheekily.
"Of course I do. But isn't it one month later ?", said Xi Yuan. So that was what it was all about. His wild little kitten's birthday...
"Yep ! We have so less ti.", William smiled ,"Have you thought of any idea yet ? Although you know how to make her feel special more than any of us , we still want to know."
As he looked at all the excited pair of eyes glued over him , the man rolled his eyes and grabbed a stool for himself ,"I haven't thought of anything specific yet. But it seems like you all have sothing on your mind definitely. So speak !"
"Propose my sister for marriage !", jumped Rong Xiao ,"She will be so happy and surprised."
"What the...", the man's mind went completely blank as he looked at Xi Fang standing beside him ,"Have you all gone crazy ?!"
"Co on , Brother !", Xi Ying grabbed another stool and sat down beside her brother ,"You love her so much. And she loves you so much. What is the problem in marrying her ?"
The man looked at the three siblings of his with an expression of doubt ,"Are you all drunk ? I can't propose her just yet."
"But why ?", Daniel asked , confusedly.
"Its because...", the man was about to explain himself to the group , when his phone rang up. The man picked it up after gesturing the Xi trio and Rong Xiao to stay silent.
"Hello , sweetheart."
"Darling !", a soft and lodious , yet cheery voice ca through the other end ,"We have a date tonight ! There is a discount at all the street food shops in the south side of the City. I am coming ho to pick you up in an hour. Wear sothing relaxing and casual. Okay ?"
"Why do you plan everything at the last mont ?", the man laughed.
"Because I know that my darling won't ever turn down.", the girl laughed back ,"Wait for hottie ! I am coming. And yes ! Dress to impress. Okay ?"
"Ok.", the man replied , disconnecting the call.
"See ! You share such an amazing chemistry. A proposal is a must !", Xi Ying squealed.
