Chapter 216: Ah, The Things I Do For My Person

Towards Pang Ze Tian, Xia Sha had mixed feelings. The hatred she had for Pang Ze Tian never dissipate or gone just because she knew how hard her life has been. But on another side, she also wanted to give her a chance to had the adjudication she needs. 

Xia Sha swipes across the voice recording apps on her phone for a long time. Something inside her chest felt uncomfortable the more she thought about the recording. Xia Sha suddenly jumped from her bed and took her purse and car key. 

A forty-five minutes mindless drive and Xia Sha arrived at the Shen Residence. Xia Sha pulled up her handbrake and looked at the light shone brightly from her mother's room on the second floor. Her hand on the steering wheel curled up as she mustered up her courage to walk inside the house. 

With a phone in her hand, she is prepared to tell her mom everything about Pang Ze Tian, but a familiar car parked near her car makes her heart drop. She rubbed her eyes to make sure she isn't hallucinating right now. A furrow on her eyebrow appears as she mumbles, "Isn't that is Dad's car?" 

The current situation makes Xia Sha's hesitation disappear. She pushes her door and walked out of her car with curiosity filled her head. As she got closer, the harder Xia Sha's heart pound. The grip on her phone tightened when she heard a faint sobbing coming from inside. 

She froze in front of the entrance door of Shen Residence. Pain crept from every channel of her nerve. 

"I forgive you. I do, I always do." 

"Xia Fei-" Xia Qi Feng's voice makes Xia Sha shiver. 

Xia Sha's hand froze in the air before she took a deep breath and turned around. She lowered her head. Suddenly she felt nothing of the evidence matters anymore. 

And so, with a faint smile on her face and light heart, she heads back to her apartment.

"Okay, the construction would start a month from now. I hope everyone could keep up with the pace, and hopefully, we could operate the hotel next month," Xiao Zhan closed his file and swept his gaze across the team. 

His sharp glance ends up meeting Xia Sha's eyes. Something is bothering Xia Sha from his concealed smile.

The meeting quickly ended as Xiao Zhan dismissed everyone from the meeting room. Xia Sha calmly collected her stuff as she prepared to leave the room. 

"Wait, I have something to discuss with you," Xiao Zhan, as expected, intercept Xia Sha to walked away. 

Xia Sha holds her breath before she fixed her gaze on Xiao Ni. With her head tilted to the left, she lazily waited for Xiao Zhan to talk. 

"About the file- Have you?" Xiao Zhan did not finish his sentence and asked Xia Sha to answer his question. 

"What file?" Xia Sha played the dumb, acting indifferently, as she averted her gaze and hugged the documents in her chest. 

"The one that I left on your table. I clearly-" Xiao Zhan hangs his sentence the moment he understands the meaning behind Xia Sha's fake smile. 

He lowered his head and let out a sarcastic laugh. Pressing his lips into a thin line, Xiao Zhan approached Xia Sha with his wide steps. 

"Well, is this a rejection?" 

Xia Sha is ashamed of Xiao Zhan for spouting it clear in the air. She had tried not to mention it so directly, but it seems like Xiao Zhan always likes it blatant. So Xia Sha nods her head and enunciates it distinctly, "Yes, I don't want to have a part in your plan." 

"That was harsh, but I understand," Xiao Zhan nods his head slowly and stops two steps away from Xia Sha. 

"You know me. I'm harsh and cruel. Guess I live up to my reputation," Xia Sha grinned. 

"That's unfortunate. We can be big together, but I guess you would rather choose the easier way."

Xia Sha squinted her eyes while her laugh slowly dried. She raised her chin and looked at Xiao Zhan with her fake friendly gaze. 

"What do you mean? What do you want to imply in your sentence?" Xia Sha raised her eyebrow. 

Xiao Zhan seems to lose his words for a moment before he let out the thoughts inside his head.

"Isn't that's the truth? Being Guan Xian's wife is so much easier than Xia Sha. All the glory and praise would be yours the moment you held his hand. I do understand, but I don't expect you, the ever-independent girl I knew, would choose this route." 

Xiao Zhan's words felt like a knife stabbing inside Xia Sha's heart. Every breath she makes her more suffocated as she holds her urges to slap that handsome face. It took almost her energy to remain composed as she moves her heels to steps right in front of Xiao Zhan. 

"You want to play it like this? Really?" She smirked and pretended to be considered as Xiao Zhan's face darkened. 

He pressed his lips that is twitching from holding the pain from his foot. Xia Sha's sharp stilettoes are just right at his pinky toes as she smiles at him like an angel. 

"Why do you think I have the corresponding success measurement as you? You might be my first love but were aren't on the same level anymore. I am the person behind a groundbreaking project. You are the person who steals the spotlight from a person like me. We are not the same. Who are you to talk to me like this?" 

Xia Sha used a monotonous tone, but Xiao Zhan felt the hallow on his chest expanding. His toes felt numb as he felt Xia Sha's words get inside his nerve. 

"I am the person who makes people like you work for me. You should see it through and think carefully," Xia Sha stopped and smirked at Xiao Zhan. She tiptoed and placed her head on the same level as his ears.

"Someone might sit on your back and driving your every movement. I know it's hard to be someone without a life purpose but hang in there. At least, you are doing your responsibilities right now. It's better than running away like a coward." 

Xia Sha patted Xiao Zhan's shoulder twice before she walked away from Xiao Zhan as if nothing happens. 

Xiao Zhan stood there in the empty meeting room with a curled fist. He had overflowing anger inside that his knuckles turned white. His teeth were gnashing against each other as his lips twitched. He took the proposal file on the table and threw it away to the trash can before he furiously walked out from the meeting room.

Xia Sha is nearby when Xiao Zhan storms out from the public office room to the lift. Wicked smiles appear on her face as she holds her phone to her ears.

"Hello? Xia Sha, are you there?" Guan Xian's voice rang out from the device. 

"Hm, I am here."

"Have you made an appointment with your lawyer? Where should we meet?" Guan Xian asked. 

"My Lawyer could not make it this lunch. I'll review it by myself," Xia Sha answers with a different kind of excitement in her heart. 

Watching Xiao Zhan's violent back disappear behind the lift door make her delighted. She knew there would be a good drama to watch soon if she remembers how ugly Xiao Zhan's expression before. The Xiao Manor won't sleep early tonight. 

"Really? That's great! I'll pick you up at lunch, and we will discuss the prenup at my office. If you had something to add beforehand, text Tang Yu Bin, he would take care of it." 

"Informing Tang Yu Bin or Fu Qun, isn't it the same?" Xia Sha sounds exasperated suddenly, but a smile is still plastered on her face as she continues her walk. 

Guan Xian let out a chuckle as he heard Xia Sha complain. The heavy workload on his table suddenly felt fun after talking to Xia Sha. He looked at the list he had made based on his future mother-in-law's suggestion. The future seems to be peaceful and harmonious right now. 

"It's settled then. I'll pick you up later, baby."

Guan Xian and Xia Sha bid goodbye before Guan Xian picked up the paper he wrote before and called Tang Yu Bin from the office phone. Tang Yu Bin appears on Guan Xian's office doorsteps the next second. He raised his eyebrow at his boss. 

"A-Bin, include this special claused on my marriage prenup. Tell Lawyer Du to put the last point at a strategic place somewhere between the standard official prenuptial agreement from the Guan family. The harder someone could find it, the better." 

Tang Yu Bin nods his head and takes the paper from Guan Xian's hand. Because Guan Xian especially mentions the last point, his attention directly when to the end sentence. Something that Tang Yu Bin regretted as he almost choked to death by surprise. 

'100 Years of Mediation before the divorce. MUST!'

Tang Yu Bin's eyes almost roll out from its socket. Does his boss had lost his mind or his face? 

However, Tang Yu Bin could forget about Guan Xian being embarrassed about his action. His boss did not even hesitate to chuckles and winked at him. 

"In this lifetime, I would never hear the word divorce in my marriage life."

"Ah, the things I do for my person."
