"Boss! Let me drive you please," the assistant insisted as he felt emotional.

Xi Cheng sighed deeply, "Shen Li, this is my last order for you. Don't follow me today."

"Then let me be with you as your childhood friend, Xi Cheng," the assistant, Shen Li insisted.

Xi Cheng, who was about to open the door of his car, stopped hearing it and turned to look at the assistant.

"As my childhood friend, I have one favor from you."

"Tell me."

"Look after my mother and be with her whenever she misses me."

These words were the confirmation from Xi Cheng that he won't be coming back ever.

"X-Xi Cheng....."

"Don't say or ask anything, Shen Li. Nothing would change."

"Can't you think about it again. Isn't there any other way, Xi Cheng?"

"There might be, but this is what I chose to do now. So do as I say,"

Instructing, Xi Cheng sat in the car and locked the door so that his stubborn assistant won't sit inside and follow him.

Before the car could leave, the assistant tried his best to stop Xi Cheng as he tried to open the car's door, which was locked and even knocked on the windows asking Xi Cheng to let him in, but Xi Cheng drove away.

The assistant stood at his place, looking at the car disappearing from his sight as the tears rolled down from his eyes. "Xi Cheng, my friend, why do you have to choose this way?" he mumbled.

Xi Cheng drove on the highway, going outside of the city. After an hour, he reached the deserted place where he stopped his car, facing the deserted piece of land.

Xi Cheng sat in the car for a while, silently and pulled out his wallet. There was one picture inside which he clicked with his half-siblings when they were kids, unknown to the cruel future in their way. Three kids were smiling brightly, Nixxxie sitting in the middle and two brothers sitting on either side, on the bench in the park.

Xi Cheng caressed the picture with his thumb. "Xi Guo, I hope as we will meet now, we would be good with each other."

Tears rolled down his eyes as he stared at Nixxxie for a while. Xi Cheng closed his eyes as he remembered all the good memories with her from their childhood days and till their last conversation on the phone when she asked him to die.

He opened his eyes and said, "For the first time, you asked me to do something, and I can't dare to say no to you."

Holding that picture in his hands, Xi Cheng started the car and drove away at full speed on the deserted land, which ended up after some distance just to show the vast water bed of the river.

Xi Cheng didn't stop, and soon the car was floating in the air for a few moments, and Xi Cheng shut his teary eyes as all he could see was Nixxxie's bright and smiling face.

The car fell into the vast and deathly water bed of the river. Soon that calm looking water bed engulfed the vehicle and the person sitting inside it. It disappeared as everything turned silent again as if nothing happened, and the water continued to flow in its usual way.

In Jiang Yuyan's office...

San Zemin handed over the tablet to Jiang Yuyan that showed what Xi Cheng did. While watching the video, there was no change in Jiang Yuyan's expressions as she kept the tablet back on the table and gave out a deep sigh.

"What was the thing he wanted to protect?" Jiang Yuyan asked.

"The secret about his birth," San Zemin replied.

"Burn that file." Jiang Yuyan ordered.

Xiao Min and San Zemin were glad about what Jiang Yuayn decided. Their previous Boss, Lu Qiang, used that secret to keep Xi Cheng in control, but he never wished to reveal it after knowing what happened with Xi Cheng's mother and why Xi Cheng changed.

The police found the car and Xi Cheng's body, and the news of his death took over all the news channels. When Xi Cheng's assistant heard the news, he was not surprised as he knew his Boss won't be with him ever. Feeling worried about Xi Cheng's mother, he went to Xi Residence, just to see his mother was lying on the floor of her room and the news of her son's death playing on the television again and again.The assistant immediately took her to the hospital.

Lu Feng, who was shocked by the news, informed Nixxxie, who was still staying in his home.

"I don't know what to think about it, brother Feng," said Nixxxie as she sat quietly on the sofa. Taking a little pause she asked,"Am I to blame for his death too, now?"

"This was his destiny, so don't take it to your heart. I am sure he won't blame it on you," said Lu Feng as he sat beside her to console.

"I hated him, but as he is dead, it feels bad to say it."

Lu Feng put his hand on hers, "Will you believe if I say something about him?"

Not saying a word, Nixxxie looked at Lu Feng as he continued.

"His care for you was genuine. He never wished to harm you though he always showed otherwise."

"Do you think so?" Nixxxie asked not believing his words.

"If he wanted to hurt you, he would have done it long back and forced your mother to change her decision, but he never did it."

Lu Feng's words made sense to her as she spoke. "Once, he was very good to brother Xi Guo and me, and I still can't believe how he changed."

"Every person has his reason, and I still believe he was not a bad person to start with, but conditions must have forced him that we are not aware of."

"What conditions?" Nixxxie asked.

"As he is dead, we don't need to look into it. Let it burry with him and let him be in peace," Lu Feng suggested. "Also, give him the respect that one deceased family member deserves regardless of what he had done."

Nixxxie agreed. "Hmm!"
