The 3 B's- Beauty , Brains And Bravery 228 Not A Woman Who Strives To Impress

Meanwhile , Elite Diamond Penthouse :

"Sorry , Xiao Xinghe. She didn't mean to...", Xi Fang quickly tried to explain on behalf of his mother as soon as the two ladies left the place.

Rong Xinghe waved her hands in the air indifferently and smiled at the young man ,"Its alright. I didn't take it to heart."

"Thanks , sister-in-law.", Xi Fang smiled at the lovely lady in front of him.

"Mr. RichXi , can you buy me a scoop of ice cream right now ? I want to have a private chat with you.", Rong Xinghe smiled at Xi Yuan.

Xi Yuan nodded and stood up from his seat. As the couple left the penthouse , Xi Ying looked at her two remaining brothers worriedly.

"Is sis-in-law upset about what happened ?"

"Hopefully ! I love it when she scolds brother. I mean how many people in this world can lecture that scary devil ?", Xi Wei chuckled as he stuffed his mouth with the brownie prepared by Xi Yuan.

Xi Ying glared at the man beside her and punched him on his left arm ,"He is our brother !"

"And she is my G.o.ddess ! She can do whatever she wants."

Xi Fang : "....."

11:00 p.m. , Softy Harbor :

Xi Yuan pa.s.sed the girl her favorite vanilla ice-cream.

"Thanks."

"You are angry about what my aunt said ?", the man kneeled down in front of the woman and started to tie down her open shoe laces.

Rong Xinghe shook her head and replied ,"Not angry , just slightly unsure. Why do I feel like your aunt doesn't like me ?"

"To be precise , I am myself unable to understand as to why she said those words. She doesn't speak like that normally. It was odd today."

"Can I ask you something ?", the girl asked hesitantly.

"You have every right , Ma'jolie.", the man smiled and stood up from the ground after tying the laces.

"After everything that happened with your grandparents , you still respect your parents and uncle-aunt ?"

Xi Yuan's smile disappeared from his lips the moment his grandparents were mentioned. The man took in a deep breath and covered the girl with his jacket in order to protect her from cold winds. He then sat down beside her and looked into her eyes.

"I had seen my grandparents' pain when my parents used to be rude to them. Old people are usually fragile by heart , Xinghe. Honestly , I have been avoiding that incident until now. I wanted to escape that endless blame-game. As long as my family isn't rude to my siblings and you , I will never confront them about what happened in the past. But of course , you are allowed to do whatever you want. After all , the man in love with you is none other than Xi Yuan.", the man caressed the girl's hair lovingly.

Rong Xinghe's cheeks reddened when the man shoved her hair strands behind her ear and smiled at her. Even his smallest of actions could affect her to the extent of blus.h.i.+ng. The Rong Xinghe in love was indeed a completely different person....

But on a serious note , he was trying to convey to her that the Xi twins , Xi Wei and she were his bottom line. If someone was to harm any of them , he wasn't going to go easy on them , no matter what. This was actually a very sweet gesture of his !

After she was done with her ice cream , Rong Xinghe jumped into Xi Yuan's car and drove back towards the Elite premises along with the man.

"I want to make two things clear to you , Yuan. Just don't take it personally."

"Go ahead.", the man smiled.

"I don't care what your family thinks about me. And I am not a woman who strives to impress anyone. They will have to accept me the way I am. They will have to acknowledge the wild , careless and rebel Rong Xinghe.", the girl said seriously. This was the real reason that she had asked him for a private chat ,"Ever since I was in Rong family , I had worked very hard to impress those people. Funnily enough , I wanted my 'family' to be proud of me. Even the partic.i.p.ation in 'Voice of the World' was because of the hope that they would feel pride in calling me their kin. But in the end , what happened ?

"So after that experience , I had stopped licking other's boots or brown-nosing others."

Xi Yuan's heart ached when he thought about the efforts his woman must've had put in order to impress that psycho family. He squeezed the girl's hand tightly and said ,"Got it."

Rong Xinghe smiled at the man and continued ,"And secondly , although I don't care about my reputation , my brothers are my weakness as well as my strength. I hope that my relations.h.i.+p with your family wouldn't result in my brothers being implicated.

"I can cut throats for the six men , Yuan. So don't expect me to go easy on anyone if something like that happens. They have families of their own. Even if one wants to stab me thousand times , I wouldn't scream for once. But if my brothers are attacked for just once , I have the capability to make or break the nations , let alone be a small group of people."

Compared to her earlier tone , Rong Xinghe's tone now was way more cold and distant. Just because she was their younger sister , it didn't meant that she couldn't protect them. She hated it the most when her brothers were hurt due to her personal matters.

And this was the reason that she was so adamant to take revenge against Rong family for Lu Wei's accident. If the Rongs had their personal grudges , the could've had attacked her. But they shot her at her soft spot.

Xi Yuan obviously understood the six men's importance in Rong Xinghe's life more than anyone. The eight siblings were the perfect example of an ideal siblinghood , despite not being blood related to each other.

"Xinghe , I will never stop you if your brothers are hurt. You might not believe this but I respect your brothers more than even you do.", the man smiled at the girl.

"Why ?"

Xi Yuan waited for the car to come to a halt at the traffic signal before he leaned in on the woman beside him. The man then brushed his lips against hers pa.s.sionately ,"Because the woman I am madly in love with , was made and shaped by those legends !"
