Chapter 148: Xi Yuan's gift

Rong Xinghe swept her eyes across the crowd before they stopped at Xi Yuan .

The man was wearing a Grey tuxedo and although he was standing amongst so many people , he stood out .

The man was looking at her and his gaze was not gentle like it always would be. Instead , for the first time , she had seen passion and desire in those mesmerizing hazel eyes of the man .

The woman literally felt an electric sensation run through her body under the intense and ardent scrutiny of the man as her cheeks involuntarily turned reddish and she looked down to calm down her rapidly beating heart .

When Rong Xiao , Xi trio and William observed the actions of the two , they looked like they were struck with thunder !

Were they both really the two most unromantic species they knew ?!

It was fine with Xi Yuan because the man was already in love with her. But what was with her blushing ?!

Wasn't she the heartless Military Chief of Country X ? And hadn't she already rejected him ? Then why was she so intimidated by his gaze ?

Xi Yuan calmed himself down. He couldn't spoil the plans of the evening under the influence of his inner fire .

The man then smiled warmly and approached the two ladies .

" Happy birthday ! "

"Thank you brother-in-law !", Rong Xiao smiled cheekily .

Xi Yuan simply nodded at Rong Xiao and reverted his gaze back to the woman in front of him. The girl didn't replied but it was fine. The night was still young .

______________

Rong Xinghe and Rong Xiao were surprised by the arrangements made by the Youth Team .

Although the party was held on the beach , it was nothing like the parties they had celebrated ever.

The decorations were out-of-the-box themselves. For instance , some large 'lion paw's ' shells were painted from the outside while lights were fixed inside them making them glow. It was like entire beach was glowing due to those shells .

Also , many big screens were connected around the lighthouse and all those screens were lit up with the two sisters' childhood memories. Whenever anyone saw these photos , their hearts would melt down in awe.

The Rong twins' favorite food was being served.

Games like guess the dish , donut catch and many more were also prepared. Dance floor was on fire as well .

As expected , Rong Xinghe had the most relaxing evening in the past few months. Throughout the evening , the girl's smile didn't disappeared for even a second .

After sometime , when everyone was drunk and were enjoying themselves on the beach , Xi Yuan gently grabbed the girl's hand and whispered in her ears ," Come with me ? "

Rong Xinghe glanced at the man and nodded .

Shortly after , Xi Yuan brought Rong Xinghe to the most isolated part of the beach and as soon as the girl saw the place , her eyes widened as she covered her mouth in surprise .

The man had prepared a bewitching and enchanting Cocoon tree tent for her !

After construction , it looked more like an spherical art installation. Since it was nighttime and the ball-like tent was lit up from inside , the entire place glowed like a sacred space. The Cocoon ball had fit a mattress sized bed inside of it, while still accommodating lighting, food prep equipment , and a mini fridge !

The captivating cocoon ball was tied to the trees and was off the ground.

Xi Yuan helped the girl get into the tent ball and then sat down beside her himself .

The man smiled and caressed the girl's cheeks ," Happy birthday , Xinghe ! "

Rong Xinghe was in an extremely joyful mood when she saw the tent but it was still difficult for her to digest all of this , so she simply nodded with a smile and kept looking around with the excitement akin to a child .

Xi Yuan was relieved that Rong Xinghe liked his gift ," I had been trying to know your likes and dislikes for the past 11 months but you are good with so many things that I could still not point out that one thing you liked the most.

"So ... I asked your brothers ."

"My brothers ?! ", Rong Xinghe was a little startled ," They told you ? "

"They know about us ... And they have warned me as well. But they have decided to step into our matter when you accept me. That is a relief for me , by he way. But anyway , they wanted you to have a good birthday celebration so ... they told me willingly. ", the man scratched his head nervously .

Rong Xinghe : "....."

The six horrifyingly protective tigers knew already ?!

....And they decided to stay away ?

That was unexpected from the people like them .

From when on , did they started to be so ... understandable ?

"They told me that you don't like materialistic things like Diamonds or platinum , nor do you have any interest in things like bungalows , cruise ships , choppers ,or private jets. These were the things I could give you easily .

" But then they said that you cherish memories. That you love to live in the moment and that you like something that could last forever. They said that even they felt that their money is useless to you and that they had to spend time with you to make you happy. So ... Xinghe , although this gift of mine is not expensive enough , I hope that this will be memorable for you. ", the man smiled anxiously .

"This is beautiful , Yuan !", Rong Xinghe's lips curled into a huge smile.

"Wait ... you made this yourself ?! ", the girl suddenly realized something .

Since she and Xi Yuan were working together on some projects in Lu Corporation , she had seen some wounds on the man's knuckles when he signed the required documents for the same.

The man nodded honestly ," Yeah ... This Cocoon Tent is a little complicated to set up than those normal ground tents. Specially , that tying the rope part. It took me almost five days to set this up completely along with the accommodations inside it. Moreover , I had to maintain the secrecy as it was meant to be a surprise ."

Rong Xinghe was really touched by the man's gesture this time. He actually exhausted himself so much in order to give her a memorable gift such as this. Just how much did he liked her ?!

The woman's eyes turned red and she did something which Xi Yuan had never expected to happen to him .

The girl leaned in on the man and wrapped her arms around the man's waist as she hugged him tightly. Her head rested on the man's shoulder and he could easily feel the heated breath of the woman on his neck .

"Thank you so much , Yuan !"

Xi Yuan's back stiffened as he dared not move .

Was this really happening ?!

Did she really took the initiative for the first time ?
