6. Minute late on rescuing

It is stated that Liwei should rescue Xinghe without a hair missing. How can he report it if the girl is almost poisoned? How could he said that they are a minute late on rescuing the young heiress of the Liao family?

"Ushi! you should go with me! Come back here!" The poor man run at them in fear of reporting to his father alone.

Xinghe is treated at the private room, it looks like a mini clinic because of medical supplies that is there. The doctor gives her something to drink and prescribe her to use the ointment the doctor gave to her. After that she was examined to make sure that no toxins absorbed by her body and luckily, none.

"I thought your mouth looks exactly like that. It turns out it is really swollen" Liwei said, just to lighten the mood of the young girl devastated at her own image. Who would have thought that her mouth would be this swollen already?

"Liwei, you should report to your father already, I'm sure he is already waiting to you"

Ushi reminds Liwei of inevitable calamity he would face to stop teasing and mocking Xinghe.

"Must you be this cruel to remind me? You should come with me since it was your specific task to rescue her!" Liwei exclaimed loudly as though he is so sure Ushi will be blamed. The man glanced at him and aloofly replied

"Then I'll just say to uncle the truth that you searched the famous Xiao Long Bao there before rescuing Xinghe"

"No! Don't do this to me! I thought we are sworn brothers since ages ago? How could you!? Ok then how about you will be my grandfather for a month! How is it?" Liwei got panicked. How can he revealed to his father they are late for finding Xiao Long bao? His punishment will be starving for a week if it was known. Better to be demoted to a lower squad than losing his food!

"Just a month?"

"2 months?"

"A year"

"What the heck? Did I murder your family to do this to me!?"

Ushi's mind flashed gunshots, screams, grieving. The man killed someone beside him and someone is shouting and pleading. It is so gruesome.

"Ushi?" seeing his cousin holding his head he got panicked, it is just 3 years when they rescue him from accident and even though the man didn't say anything, they know that the accident run deeps in his mind, leaving him empty and full with scars.

"I-I'm okay, go to your father, he is waiting" Ushi seat beside the bed of Xinghe where she is staying.

"Ok, wait me here. I'm sure once I go back from there I will be squad Foxtrot" scratching his head, he immediately go to the second floor to report what happened. After Liwei leave, Xinghe and Ushi is the only one left,

"Thank you about earlier, If not for the two of you I don't know what will happen to me"

"It is our mission, you should rest know since you looks really exhausted"

"Okay, you should also sleep"

Xinghe immediately closed her eyes when she got her permission to sleep. Her exhaustion is enough to remove all the negative feelings she is bottling inside her head. When Ushi is sure that the girl is now asleep, he left the room to rescue his cousin.

"Dad! Don't! It's so expensive!" and so heavy if hit on my face! Liwei didn't have the courage to say the last sentence for he know his face would be bruised!

"I told you no hair of the Liao heiress coud be damage, what did you done? Your car is broken? What do you think of me? Why don't you just said that you are stuck in traffic?"

Old master Yu is fuming mad because of his son's stupidity, if not for the bastard's fast reflexes, he bet the latter would have his face ruined! He is really eager to scratch that adonis appearance off his son's face! He looks ike his mother but his stupidity and playfulness ruined his whole image! Might as well scratch that face off that body, maybe his wife will be relieved!

"Uncle"

"Ushi! get in. Tell me what does this bastard done? What really happened?"

The vase that is attempted to be hit at Liwei's face stop midway. Liwei's eyes shone like a galaxy. My savior!

"Uncle our car really broken. We run out of batteries, It is Liwei's car that we used." Old master Yu seems to believe that the car run out of battery because it is owned by Liwei, however, he again throw the vase towards Liwei because of his stupidity running out of battery in times needed.

"You are really stupid! What did you do to your car!? Are you making it work like a club? Out!"

And so Liwei get past the calamity. He can't be blamed because it is really unexpected but that doesn't mean it is true! When they got out of the room they immediately head towards the kitchen to eat

"Call me grandfather for a year"

"Yes grandpa I will!" Liwei salutes at his friend.

"I thought I wil be Foxtrot! So lucky to have our Xiao shi!" Ushi immediately glares at him, it is not his fault why does his face looks feminine!

Lu Xinghe woke up in the morning the next day she is not in the clinic anymore but in an unfamiliar room. The room looks clean and looks like a feminine, the walls are painted baby pink, the cabinets and dividers are painted light gray. She like this room but what makes her so anxious is she doesn't know where she is. Climbing out of the room, she immediately get out of room to run towards long hallways and stumbled upon rooms after rooms, being so scared and frightened at the same time because of the past events that occur to her, tears began to fall as anxiousness began to grow.

The simplicity of their abode, place her heart in peace. The lavishness of what is in front of her is the very thing that terrifies her.
