The 3 B's- Beauty, Brains and Bravery

Chapter 278: "Welcome to the family !"

Just when the two men were talking among themselves , Xi Yuan furrowed his brows and opened his eyes slowly. The man was naturally taken aback by the presence of the two men. He realized that the girl was sleeping soundly in his embrace. Yet , the protective tigers hadn't said a word to him. For a split second , the man almost thought that he was dreaming. 

But as he listened to the conversation between Lu Wei and Zhi Xi , he realized that it wasn't his imagination at all and that the men were actually considering him as their sister's love interest. In fact , the girl's eldest brother seemed to be pretty convinced regarding his intentions and sincerity for the girl. It was an amazing thing , wasn't it ? Recieving blessings from the people who mattered the most to the girl was something he had always hoped for. 

Next second , the man pushed aside the blanket covering him and got down the bed. He then glanced at the two men before he placed a soft kiss against the girl's forehead and gestured the men to talk outside.

"Why haven't you slept yet ?", as soon as they walked into the living room , Lu Wei asked to the man. 

"Senior Lu , this is how I am. You know that I am a light sleeper. Anyway , can we talk about the discussion you both were having inside Xinghe's bedroom a moment ago ?", the man said as he came to the main topic. 

"What do you want us to say ?", questioned Zhi Xi ,"Does our opinion even matter ? Xinghe has already confessed her feelings for you in front of both the families. Who are we to stop her ?" 

After few seconds of silence , the man finally spoke up ,"Only the six of you have the right to think of Xinghe's right and wrong. No one can plan her future better than the six of you. There is a reason that she worships her brothers so much. Your opinions matters the most in our relationship , Senior Zhi. Just because we are dating doesn't mean we won't need our families' consent." 

The two men glanced at each other as a smile crept across their lips. It seemed like the right man had finally walked into their sister's life. He knew how much their kiddo valued family and relationships. So in order to not trouble the girl in near future , he was already making sure that all the family members were supporting their relationship. Indeed a smart man !

"Hmm. Welcome to the family then , I guess ?", Lu Wei laughed as he opened his arms wide.

Xi Yuan raised his brows ever so slightly as he took sometime to register the man's words completely. But the moment he understood the meaning behind Lu Wei's words , relief flooded through him and he responded to the man with a brief hug quickly. Naturally , Zhi Xi joined in into the moment.

"Just don't let us hear about Xinghe going through any pain because of you !", warned the two men , in unison.

"I will try my best.", the man laughed as he raised his hands in surrender. 

"That's just enough.", smiled Lu Wei ,"Don't tire yourself out too much about this. We know you care for her. Want some coffee ?"

"You will make coffee for me ?", the man asked with a visible hint of surprise in his tone.

"Wei loves making midnight coffee.", Zhi Xi said ,"Since we were both going to work for the entire night anyways , we don't mind making an extra cup."

As the two men entered the kitchen , Xi Yuan kept staring at them with an expression of disbelief. Was this how the Superfamily was really like ? So warm and... so welcoming. It was like he had been suddenly gifted by a new and loving family.

That night , the three men chatted with each other openly , for hours. While they shared their views and opinions on certain general matters , they also talked about their future business plans. As the night grew older , Xi Yuan realized that Rong Xinghe's brothers were completely different people from the two business tycoons he knew. They were carefree , casual and thoughtful , unlike the unapproachable cold personalities he thought of them to be. Maybe being a part of this family was one of the best things that had ever happened to him...

Next morning , the girl woke up to find herself on an empty bed. The girl rubbed her eyes with a muddled expression as she walked out of her bedroom into the living room. 

But the moment she walked into the room , her eyes flew wide open. The girl was so shocked that she had to cover her mouth with the palm of her hands , in order to not disturb the three men. Her Bro Lu , Bro Zhi and darling were sleeping on the living room's three couches as three laptops were placed on the table in front of them. Stacks of business documents were placed over one another as more than ten cups of coffee were lying here and there.

The girl looked at the three men with a blank expression. She just didn't knew what to do. Was this even real ? And was it even allowed ? How could her brothers be so informal with her darling ? Sharing coffee and all...

The girl tiptoed to her man and caressed his fluffy hair lovingly before she approached her brothers and sat down between them , like the little kitten she was. She then stretched her legs upon the table and rested her head against her Bro Lu's shoulder as she held onto her Bro Zhi's hand tightly. 

Naturally , Lu Wei and Zhi Xi woke up by the disturbance caused by the girl and turned their heads to look at her sleepily.

"You woke up ?", asked Zhi Xi , in hoarse voice.

The girl nodded her head like a rattledrum before she smiled cheekily at her Bro Lu ,"What did you guys do all night ?"

"Nothing much.", Lu Wei shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly ,"We just told him about all your secrets , including the one , when you sold my diamond brooch to get your favorite dress."

"And we also told him about how you had thrown all the kitchen utensils down the 12th floor , when you were four , just to 'enjoy' gravity."

Rong Xinghe : "..."

Who , in their right state of minds , reveals their sister's secrets to her boyfriend ?!josei

Why was she suddenly feeling like maybe it was better for her brothers to maintain a distance from her Yuan ? That way , at least her embarrassing childhood memories would remain under the wraps.
