Chapter 190: That Is Not What She Intended To Show!

The deserted island incident changed Xia Sha's life completely. 

Ever since she met grandmother Guan and chat with her in the helicopter, Xia Sha has been going to Guan Manor once a week. Mother Guan would sometimes ask her to shop with her, while Xiao Ni ask her to help with her wedding. 

Xia Sha is overwhelmed by Guan's family, and Guan Xian is more than happy to laugh at her every time she felt awkward. 

Apart from that, Xia Sha and both of her parents also started to meet every once in a while. The heavy air between Shen Xia Fei and Xia Qi Feng graduated from each meeting. They even joke around each other. Xia Qi Feng looks younger from every meet amused Xia Sha.

Lives seem to be brighter for Xia Sha right now. Pang Ze Tian got detained in jail, and Meng Ran hasn't shown her face for a long time now. The only thing that disturbed her mind is Xiao Xiang suddenly went missing.

Xia Sha did not realize how fast time has flown. The public started to forget about the news, and she could work effectively starting today. 

Guan Xian dropped her off in the lobby of Xia corporation. He did not forget to give her a bouquet of daisies mixed with ranunculus. Daisies to wish her happiness and ranunculus to symbolize his everlasting love, he said. 

Of course, this scene had made her topic of the day. The public might forget the scandal, but those who work in the Xia Company would see Xia Sha's gorgeous face and keep the lousy gossip in their department. 

Their gaze and whispering did not bother Xia Sha. Instead of exposing them and let them ruined her happiness today. She chooses to smell the fresh flower and be happy on her first day. 

Xia Sha walked to the lift confidently, a slight smile pestering her face when she sees Fu Qun rushing to her with a big grin. 

"Boss! I've missed you!" Fu Qun cried as soon as he stood next to Xia Sha. 

"I did not know how you could operate this whole company. Mr.Xiao almost went nut when you are gone. He cursed every day," Fu Qun whispered the two last sentences into Xia Sha's ear. 

Xia Sha raised her eyebrow and gave a meaningful stare at Fu Qun. She holds the Boquete closer to her chest as she enters the lift with Fu Qun. 

So her father appointed Xiao Zhan to replace her position while she is away. Weirdly she does not felt angry and defensive this time. Instead, she is glad it's Xiao Zhan and not one of the people from those cunning director's people. It lessens her trouble. 

And apparently, Xiao Zhan had the same relief smile when they meet at Xia Sha's office.

"Thank God you are here now! I think I'll become as old as my father if I need to do your job for another week," Xiao Zhan exclaims and pull Xia Sha into a friendly hug as soon as Xia Sha barged into her office.

Xia Sha raised her eyebrow, seem to be surprised by the sudden physical contact. 

"Wow, I didn't realize my job is that tough," Xia Sha murmured, distancing herself after hugging for few seconds. 

"Are you crazy? I practically slept in this office and finished nothing. But I'm glad you finally step away from this little hell to refresh your mind," Xiao Zhan smiles then forced his smile when his sight falls on the flower on Xia Sha's hand. 

"Agreed! I'm so glad I don't have to work overtime again~" Fu Qun chimed in happily, ignoring Xiao Zhan's lazy eyes roll. 

Fu Qun confessed, he likes to complain that working with Xia Sha is tough. But Xia Sha's absence changed his whole mind. He never realized Xia Sha had more workload than she had done herself without his assistance. 

Xiao Zhan had proven that for Fu Qun.

"Thank you for helping," Xia Sha said sincerely to Xiao Zhan. 

She is surprised that Xiao Zhan remains to stay as the project leader after their closure conversation. Never in a million years could Xia Sha imagine that one day Xiao Zhan will fill her position and help her company in a crucial time like this. 

"Well, that's the only thing I could do to help both of us in the future. Since I've taken the responsibilities to lead the team for our Futuria Hotel, It only seems right to help the ideator. However, if you insist, lunch or dinner will be fine," Xiao Zhan answer thoughtfully. 

Xia Sha showed a big smile and nodded her head decisively. 

"Sure, lunch treat on me today."

"Are you serious?" Xiao Zhan seems surprised and excited now that Xia Sha agreed to go on lunch with him. 

"Great. I also have something on your desk. You might want to check it. My advice, you should see it after you finish your work," Xiao Zhan winked before he bid his goodbye to Xia Sha.

Xia Sha does see a brown folder on the top of her desk. But instead of worrying about the content inside, she got carried away by the flower on her hand. 

"Where should I put this?" she mumbles to herself since she could not spot a single flower vase in her office. She rarely appreciates the beauty of a flower. Thus, she never bothered placing vases in her office or home. 

In the end, she walked to an empty bowl of fish -whose fish had died a long time ago because she never took care of it, RIP goldfish- and decided to filled the bowl with water. She carefully placed the flower before she went back into her seat. 

The first thing Xia Sha does is reading FUTURIA Hotel's development report. She writes notes here and there and prepared materials that needed get discussed in the next meeting. The next thing she does is checking sales reports and anything related to company operations. 

Before she realized it, it's already lunchtime when Fu Qun knock into her office with the report she asked from investing department. 

"Boss, this is the repot you ask," Fu Qun's voices make Xia Sha looked up from the pile of the document she reviewed. 

"Yeah, you got the report, and it's lunchtime. I've come to collect the debt," Xiao Zhan's head pops out behind Fu Qun. 

Xia Sha looked at Xiao Zhan and the document on her desk. After complementing for a short time, she sighed and dropped her pen to her desk. Soothing the wrinkles on her shirt, she nodded at Xiao Zhan. 

"Okay, let's grab lunch. Fu Qun tell the others that I'll treat everyone lunch today," Xia Sha ordered Fu Qun as she walked to grabbed her coat. 

Since Xia Sha and Fu Qun are busy preparing themselves, no one notices the quick change in Xiao Zhan's expression. His lips froze for a second, but he quickly chuckled upon remembering his wishful thinking. 

Observing Xia Sha focusing on her phone and texting something to someone, Xiao Zhan quickly said something to help his heart move on. 

"You should invite Guan Xian."

Xiao Zhan's suggestion makes Xia Sha looked away from her phone and stared at him with a weird expression. 

"I meant we could welcome more investors for our project," Xiao Zhan shrugged his shoulder. "Now that I'm responsible for Futuria, I want to make sure everything is going well." 

Xiao Zhan's explanation does make sense in some way. But Xia Sha did not want to invite Guan Xian for that reason. She smiled slightly at Xiao Zhan and said, "Don't worry about investment. As long as we had a quality, there is plenty of capital out there. I won't invite him for investment but as a mentor. How is it?" 

Xiao Zhan nods his head without adding fuss. 

The whole department and Xiao Zhan arrived at the restaurant Xia Sha choose in no time. But they are surprised when another two hot men had seated in the room they reserved. Only Xia Sha and Xiao Zhan appear calm as they took their seat around the round table. 

"Hot pot in board daylight? Interesting," Xiao Zhan commented as soon as he looked at the spicy soup on the pot. 

"Ah, Mr.Xiao isn't comfortable with this restaurant? Should I take you to the closest France restaurant?" Guan Xian's answer indifferently, but every word he spat stabbed Xiao Zhan. 

Xia Sha: "..." 

Xia Sha furrowed her eyebrow at Guan Xian and stomped on his feet quietly. Although Guan Xian widens his eyes at her, there is no change of expression on his face. He posed with a dignified and charming smile.

"That is not what I meant, senior," Xiao Zhan did not seem too afraid as he answers Guan Xian calmly. 

The sudden change in how Xiao Zhan acting around Guan Xian makes Guan Xian intrigued. The fighting spirit on his eyes dim, he looks calm as he picked pour tea to Xia Sha. 

"I'm joking. What I meant is we should grab some lunch together sometimes. If you are interested," Guan Xian smiles. 

"Sure, anytime," Xiao Zhan replied almost instantly, without any burden on his shoulder. 

Their sudden changes make Xia Sha blinked her eyes in confusion. She looked at Xiao Zhan then Guan Xian repeatedly and only stopped when Guan Xian wrinkled his nose to her. 

"Ms. Xia Sha, how long are you going to compare your man with another man? I thought that process had passed a long time ago."

Xia Sha: "...." That is not what she intended to show!
