"They used to cook and they used to earn. They made a home for us.

"I still remeber how Bro Zhi Xi used to stretch his neck , pull his sleeves up and rush into the kitchen , as soon as he reached home , after the long tiring day he had had at the office. I still remember how Bro Zhi Bo used to calmly separate us from his paintings after we would ruin it with black inks. He never once cared about his artwork upon which , he used to work for hours. Instead , he used to ensure that me and Xiao wouldn't consume the harmful ink. 

"I remember how Bro Mo used to tell us bedtime stories and how Bro Su used to take care of our academics. I can't forget how we used to pull pranks upon the other brothers along with Bro Zhi Al. And how can I forget how Bro Lu used to protect and shield us from outsiders , no matter what we did ?", the girl said , her face still buried into the man's chest. 

Xi Yuan and the six men listened to the girl silently , none of them uttering a single word. There wasn't really anything for them to say.

What could they possible say ? The six men could barely believe that after everything that had happened , she was still choosing to forgive them. Without any second thought, without any complaints. And that made them feel even more guilty. 

After few minutes passed by , Lu Wei couldn't take it and spoke up ,"How could you forgive me just like that , Kiddo ?"

The girl separated herself from Xi Yuan and smiled at her brother wryly ,"But that is what you want , don't you ? My forgiveness."

"I do. I really do. But not like this. Not so easily. I want you to punish me. I want you to give me a hard time , Xinghe. I kept you in the dark about the one thing that you deserved to know the most. You deserved to know about it from someone you were close to. Not like this. Not from an outsider. 

"Xinghe , I could've lost you today ! Because of my stupidity and my selfish decisions. No one but I am to be blamed for your current situation. These five shouldn't be shouldering the responsibilities for what I did back then.", said Lu Wei as he looked at the five men standing beside him. 

"But instead of yelling at me , hitting me , you decide to forgive me ? This is not fair , Kiddo. My mistakes almost costed you your life. You shouldn't be going easy on me. I don't deserve an angel like you. 

"If it wasn't for Yuan's quick reflexes , god knows what would've happened to you today. Please don't forgive me so easily. That's what I deserve. It will make me feel more bad if you won't say a word to me."

By this time , Lu Wei was holding onto Rong Xinghe's both hands tightly , as if he was afraid of loosing her. Yet , the girl was still smiling at him. How could she possible punish this man ? He was already tormenting himself. He was already torturing himself. Although she had herself gone through a huge blow herself , she still felt her heart ache for him. 

"Brother...", the girl sighed ,"You did what you felt was right for me and Xiao back then. And honestly , you have that right. All the six of you have that much say in our life. You have every right to take decisions for us. 

"I don't know if what you did was right or wrong. All I know is that you never wished ill for me. You could never. Don't be so hard on yourself , Bro Lu. Its alright. Really."

"Xinghe , don't do this.", Lu Wei shook his head , his hands shaking.

"Bro Lu. You need to understand that I don't even remeber my parents. I never met Mom or Dad. I don't have a memory with them to remember. So its not that much of a loss for me , you know ? 

"I just had this last sliver of hope. That someday , they would really come back. That I would have a small ideal family. I just never saw this coming. And you know what ? I feel that you were right to hide this truth from me back then. Because today , I have you six , my six sister-in-laws and I have my Yuan. I feel warmth and safety flood through my heart when I think about you guys. I finally have a family. 

"But back then , I wasn't sure of whom to trust. After being stabbed by my own family , I was too weak to trust anyone. If the fact that I am an orphan would've been told to me at that time , I would've surely broken down mentally , emotionally. I was indeed too insensate then.

"By hiding it from me , you did the right thing Bro Lu."

"But the Migraine Stroke.... I am responsible for it , Kiddo. I put your life at risk.", Lu Wei managed to speak.

"Shut up. I told you that I never saw this coming. It was because fo the shock. What are the chances that it wouldn't have happened if you would've told me the truth earlier ?

"I can't even imagine how difficult it must've been for you to make that decision. It must've been so hard for you , Bro Lu. I am so sorry.", the girl whispered softly.

"Now stop blaming yourself , will you ? So what ? I have the most unique family in this world ! Big deal.", the girl tried to cheer up her brothers' mood as she smiled vibrantly at them ,"Who cares if I don't have Mom and Dad , I have six amazing and handsome brothers and six super hot Sister-in-laws. I am Rong Xinghe ! Nothing in my life should be normal. I am not normal , neither is my family. What matters is that I am happy. And I really am. I mean it."

The six men couldn't help but feel as if a heavy load was pulled off their heart and mind. They had never expected that the girl would look at the situation through their perspective. They never thought she would manage the situation with so much rationality. No doubt she was choosen to be the Military Chief of the entire country. She always knew how to balance her emotions in situations such as these.

Nevertheless , the six men were going to make it up to her for this incident , all their life. They were going to treat her like the princess she was , till their last breath.
