Chapter 363 - Moment of crisis.
"They belong to the Royal family of Chiboa!" Feng Shufen replied as his expressions went stiff for a minute. "If things are all settled here then I think it's already time for us to leave." He added but the latter part of his words was not given any attention.
Li Xue's eyes stared in the direction of the guards that stood in disciplined order, outside the room. It was then when she caught the look of the golden crown brooches on the formal dress suits of the bodyguards that represented the loyalty to the royals. How can she not know something this renowned? Having the nationality of Chiboa, how can she not know about the aged royal family of the country?
Though the country has much progressed from those times when kings ruled the kingdoms but still the royal family never lost its charms, power and dignity. Though they have started keeping themselves low profile for quite some years now, their decisions in the country could still make an independent stand.
The Royal family was still something not everyone could meddle with. Only a few got the power to keep a respected stand in front of them.
Li Xue was still staring in the direction of them, the same as some kid stares at the Ferris wheel. There was a look of adoration in those eyes but then suddenly her vision was obstructed as the man came forward to prevent her line of sight.
She pursed at her lips thinking that the man was again becoming an attention seeker. Rolling her eyes at him, she placed her hands on both of his shoulders as she tiptoed a little to look behind him. Her curiosity was challenging her childishness to do the worst.
"Uff – Ohh, Mr Beelzebub, at least let me take a look. It's not like I can get a chance to see the Royal bodyguards every day. Civilians like us rarely get chances to see them much say to meet them. We have always read about them in our history books, you know?"
She said as her eyes shone with delight. History has never been her likeable subject but when it came to the royal palaces and their guards, her heart would always get filled with the dreams of becoming a lost princess or heiress of those fictional stories she has read back in days of her school.
Feng Shufen looked at her. What was so great in royal guards that she was so persistent to look at them? His arms went to hold her waist strength to keep her comfortable but when felt her continuous appraising gazes at them, he snickered, "Our bodyguards are a lot better than the royal ones. If you have been so interested in them then you should have told me, I would have taken you to our training camps".
"Leave it, Mr Beelzebub. The charms of Royal Bodyguards can never be matched. You won't understand. Just let me look at them for some time so that I can cherish this moment for the rest of my life." She said, shaking off his words.
And the next moment, she was being lifted up the ground over his shoulders like a sack of potatoes.
"Mr Beelzebub … What are you doing? I have yet to see them properly. Where are you taking me?" she yelled in a low voice, taking in the consideration of the place they were in.
"Decide who is better once you see our family bodyguards. For now, let's go from here before this hospital is put on the lockdown" Feng Shufen said as he carried her effortlessly inside the room where Yi Lan and Qi Shuai were already accompanying the little Li Wei.
Li Xue puffed her cheeks but at the end agreed, knowing that what he said was also right. Since it was a royal member admitted to the hospital, the building would definitely be put under a strict lockdown and then they would not be allowed to leave, after all, still, in the ongoing decade, the security of the royal family member could not be staked.
"Hey, Shufen! I have heard something chaotic outside. Is there something going on?" Qi Shuai came forward to ask when saw his friend coming back.
Feng Shufen carefully kept Li Xue back at the floor. All of his attention was directed in putting her into comfort first. When he was confirmed, he replied to his friend. "Someone from the royal family has been shot and has been admitted in the next ward. We need to leave this place as soon possible. This place will not be safe for too long".
Li Xue was all dumbfounded by the information. The person on the stretcher was shot? How come she did not see any visible bleeding? Did her eyes play tricks on her? When she saw the person … although she was not able to get the proper look at the patient's face, his limbs seemed fine.
Qi Shuai's eyes went to stare outside for a moment and then said, "Then for what are we waiting here? Let's leave fast?"
"But we have not signed the contract papers yet?" Yi Lan raised her concern but cl.i.c.k.i.n.g his tongue, Qi Shuai solved it by saying, "Since the terms are already decided, Xiao Xue can sign it anytime and send it to you. You don't have to worry."
"But …" Yi Lan was about to say more but right at the moment, the door was knocked with some urgency and then was pushed open, revealing the face of the aged man. "On the name of the Royal family, we ask the civilians to offer some help in the moment of crisis."
Li Xue's brows wrinkled as she looked at the aged man. She was about to ask what it was but right then a nurse from behind came to explain. "Sorry to trouble you. But the patient next door is in an urgent need of blood and our blood banks are showing a shortage of that particular type. It would be a great help if you could provide some help."
