Chapter 135: I'll Make Her Deal With The Manipulator Herself.

Xia Sha never expected she would welcome Xia Xiang to Zheng Shuang's apartment one day. 

A few minutes ago, she was in the middle of bickering with Guan Xian. That 'handsome boyfriend' of her complained that she didn't look at him at all when he was away. 

Guan Xian has this tendency to be clingy as a koala. He sends a message and notifies his schedule almost every hour (before mother Guan confiscates his phone, of course). He expected her to do the same for him when he was away more than twelve hours. 

Xia Sha, on the other hand, felt there is no point in texting him. He won't be able to reply anyway. The grumpy Guan Xian then verdict that she didn't miss him at all. Xia Sha didn't bother to answer because she knew that it's one of his tricks to make her say she missed him. 

Which she does, but she doesn't want to say it explicitly on his face.

"You don't love me!" he sulked in the end. 

Xia Sha can practically imagine him wrinkling his nose and pouted like a baby. 

"Do you think you look and sound cute that way?" She tried to sound fierce but notably failed when she found herself smiling. 

"Ey, you know I am! I knew you are smiling~. Thorny girlfriend, you are so cute."

"..." Throny girlfriend is speechless.

"I'm not thorny!" Xia Sha frowned. 

"You must be frowning now. Sigh, don't worry, my thorny girlfriend! I said I would take care of you, then I will. Even if you grow wrinkles overnight because you frown too much, I will still love you. Meanwhile, let me ask My lovely Guan Quan Si product to slow skin aging." 

Xia Sha rolled her eyes lazily to his provocation. He has teased her too much that she slowly turn immune to his annoying words. 

"Whatever," she replied curtly. 

Xia Sha's reply has always make Guan Xian laugh most of the time. She never understands what so funny about her, but she loves listening to his laughter. It's like a happy virus that she can't resist. Her whole body turned relaxed once she heard Guan Xian laugh. 

Damn, why did she sound so cheesy? 

"Sigh, I miss you so much. I wish I could fly away and hug you," Guan Xian starts to get emotional and expected the same from Xia Sha. Xia Sha was about to reply to him when the door's bell rang. 

"Oh? Who comes? Did you send me a package?" Xia Sha asked curiously. 

"No. I did not. Xia Sha, wait there, don't go out-" 

Tut. Tut. Tut. 

Guan Xian: "..." Girl?! Don't you know I'm worrying over here?

Xia Sha holds her phone and runs towards the door. She checked the intercommunication before she calmly opens the door. 

"What are you doing here?" her voice comes out cold and distant as she narrowed her eyes at her so-called guest. 

"Xia Sha, I-, I need your help," a shuttering voice filled Xia Sha's ears. X

Xia Xiang nervously looked at Xia Sha. She bites her lower lips and looks like she wants to cry. Xia Sha's lips twitched. She couldn't imagine the same people had beaten her days ago. 

"Go away. I don't want to help you!" Xia Sha pulled the door and wanted to chase Xia Xiang away. But Xia Xiang's hand withstand the door. Xia Sha couldn't shut her off. 

"Please! The only person who can help me is you. I beg you! I will give you the thing you wished the most in your life. I will disappear from your sight!" 

Xia Xiang's desperate voice has win Xia Sha's ego. She folded her hand in her chest and looked at her frostily. 

"Do I need your help for that?" It sounds like a joke, but Xia Sha wanted to know what makes Xia Xiang gave up everything for a favor from her. 

Xia Xiang swallowed her saliva and shook her head weakly. Xia Sha nod, acknowledging her correct answer. Xia Xiang lowered her head, she didn't know how to persuade Xia Sha, but she can't give up. 

Xia Sha observed the restlessness from Xia Xiang's face. She knew Xia Xiang had used a mask of a weak girl all of her life. But this time, Xia Xiang looks genuinely confused and helpless. Recalling Xia Xiang's little breakdown after He Jin Nan is gone, she takes pity.

A bit, bit, a bit only. 

She took a deep breath and opened the door half-heartedly for Xia Xiang before she walked to the living room. Xia Xiang was stunned when she saw the door remained open, and Xia Sha invites her to the living room. She carefully takes the first step and nervously followed Xia Sha. 

She makes sure her steps were light and fast. She tried to minimize things that might annoy Xia Sha. Once she has taken her seat, she clears her throat and looks at Xia Sha across her. 

"What do you want?" 

Xia Xiang waste no time hesitating. She directly tells Xia Sha about Meng Ran. Word by word, gesture by gesture. Xia Sha raised her eyebrow in suspicion at her perfect narration. 

"Don't you two are birds of a feather that flock together? How can I know you aren't conspiring behind me?" 

"It's the truth. Really. Remember that Christmas lash out? I felt someone had taken control over my body. I almost couldn't remember anything when I realized. It was-" Xia Xiang couldn't describe her chaotic behavior and feeling at that time. 

"So you thought it was the drug, not your jealousy?" Xia Sha asked calmly. 

Xia Xiang's cheek flushed. She knew her feeling for Guan Xian is too palpable. It's so apparent that Xia Sha could tell right away. She lowered her head, feeling guilty somehow. 

Xia Sha looked at her resignation and saw an opportunity to investigate the matter of the ring. But she didn't answer right away. Instead, she uses the awkward and suffocating air to make Xia Xiang offered the help herself. 

"Xia Sha, I beg you. I don't think my mother could help me this time. You can ask me anything, and I'll agree to comply. I will even move out to my dad's if that what it takes to make you help me!" Xia Xiang's eyes redded when she got no reaction from Xia Sha for a long time. 

"Fine. I'll help you if you can answer several matters. Be honest, or I'll call the police myself," Xia Sha said in a flat tone, emitting a dark aura from her body. It's frightened Xia Xiang as she nods her head frantically. 

"I promised under the heaven. I will only tell the truth to Xia Sha, or she could shave my hair bald." She raised three fingers then put in on her chest. 

"swear on your mother's wedding ring. She won't find the lost ring." Xia Sha added. 

"I swear on my mother's wedding ring. She won't find the lost ring if I lie." Xia Xiang said without any hesitation. Then she realized the oddness of Xia Sha's request. 

"Wait, how did you find out my mother lost her wedding ring?" 

Xia Sha looks satisfied that Xia Xiang fell on her trap effortlessly. She rose from her seat and pour mineral water for Xia Xiang. It felt so weird to treat Xia Xiang nicely, but she realized Xia Xiang could be a key to the unsolved problem.

"Thank you," Xia Xiang sounds surprised herself that Xia Sha would treat her with courtesy one day. 

"Do you think I'm blind? I also knew your mother is trying hard to suck up to the Yan these days." 

Xia Xiang's eyes flares open. She is so surprised that she almost dropped the glass. Afraid that she would provoke Xia Sha's anger by messing up her place, she places down the glass to the table carefully with a trembling hand. 

"So you know," Xia Xiang mumbles in a weak voice.

"You knew it's hard for me to stand in the circle. My mother always wanted me to marry off well. And so, she thought by getting close to brother Yan Xi-" Xia Xiang can't bear to finish her sentence. It's too embarrassing to say her mother need to scheme for her future. 

"It's because I'm useless that my mother did this." 

"Oh? She hopes Yan Xi can acquaint you with your husband's candidates. Don't she knew that no one dares to befriend Yan Xi because he offended the big four?"

Don't you know he is a douchebag? Even if he knew someone, it wouldn't be far for him. Your mother is blatantly lying to you, yet you believe she has done it for your good. Xia Xiang, are you naive or an idiot?

She wanted to tell that to her face but afraid it would trigger her 'drug' personality and get beaten up again. She brushed it off her mind. 

"So you and your mother went to visit Yan Xi frequently?" Xia Sha asked. 

"No, she would go occasionally. But I only went there once or twice. My friend said Yan Xi has a girl stalker that would hurt a girl if they got too close to Yan Xi. I didn't dare..." 

"Wise decision," Xia Sha murmured while recalling Bai Jing's hair-raising action in the past. 

"Xia Sha! Don't worry, even though my mother tried so hard, the Yan family treat us coldly."

"There is nothing to worry about," Xia Sha smiles and smirked. "You don't have to be scared of Meng Ran. Since I said I'll help you, I will do it. She tried to gaslight you to steal my Guan Xian.. I'll make her deal with the manipulator herself."
