Chapter 32: Someone Wanted To Pursue You...

After talking with Shen Mu Qing and Zheng Shuang, Xia Sha went to a quieter place alone. Zheng Shuang's boyfriend has come to fetch her, so she left early. Shen Mu Qing has to entertain more of his guest. So Xia Sha chooses to walk alone in a small flower garden.

Grandmother Shen loves flowers when she still alive. Granny Shen in Xia Sha's eye was ever loving and gentlewoman. She spends a lot of time helping grandma Shen on her childhood days. Xia Sha stands near the rose bushes and closes her eyes.

This garden might be one of the few places that could make her feel peaceful.

She honestly would love to live on the Shen family residence than the Xia family's manor. It just so peaceful here, completely the opposite of her little hell called home. Her paternal grandmother and grandfather love her, they did, but they prefer boys over girl traditional grandparent type.

It was understandable because Xia Qi Feng is their only child, they want someone to carry on their name. Another reason why Pang Ze Tian could be madam Xia so easily. Grandmother Xia hopes she could be the one who gives Xia family a man descendent.

"Grandmother loves this garden." A mature man's voice spoke behind her. Xia Sha turns back and recognizes a man wearing grey suit seating on the garden bench. She shows a faint smile and greets him.

"Second brother."

"En." He spoke gently, turning his head to admire the beautiful flower their grandmother planted. Xia Sha chooses to approach and seats next to him. As if he already knew what happens to Xia Sha he said something that makes Xia Sha stunned.

"Your father said something about your mother already?" he asked.

"You knew?" Xia Sha stared at Shen Ao Tian with a disbelief look. Shen Ao Tian did not reveal too much expression on his face. He merely lowered his head and murmured, "No one can trust from Xia family."

Xia Sha gasp, "So you knew? How else knew? Am I the only one who doesn't know about this?" She felt overwhelmed right now. Her expression changed several times.

"We didn't want to hurt you." He said gently.

"By hiding things from me?" her forehead creased with displeasure. Shen Ao Tian shows a faint smile than pointed at the white flower in the garden.

"Do you remember how hard our grandmother grew that flower?" he asked.

It's completely out of topic but Xia Sha nodded her head nonetheless.

"She gives the best vitamin and fertilizer but it did not grow. Turns out the flower needs special care, listen to music every afternoon. But after the roots grow, it just needs to take care of the usual flower. The flower is you. When your parent's divorce you did not take it well, do everything on you might to show your disappointment to them."

Xia Sha averted her gaze, but after several minutes she finally said, "I understand."

"Good girl." Shen Ao Tian ruffled Xia Sha's hair gently. The seat next to each other, he waited for her to calm down a bit before dropping another bomb.

"I see you are getting cozy with young master Guan?" he asked with casualties. Xia Sha shook her head slowly and pursed her lips.

"I'm not, and it was just a dance. It's nothing special." She tried to hide her red cheeks with a pout. A wind breeze makes her perfectly styled hair becomes messy. Her bang split into two because of it.

Shen Ao Tian smiles and genty helps her arranging her bangs. "Really? but I don't see that's what young master Guan thinks." He hinted upon something Xia Sha hasn't aware of.

Xia Sha raised her left eyebrow and furrowed her head. Did second brother hit his head lately? Or maybe Guan Xian has been up to mischief again?

Shen Ao Tian looks through the big glass window over her house, he suddenly chuckles widely.

Xia Sha subconsciously follows his sight and immediately stands up. She pointed at the man and a middle-aged woman with a distressed look. "What is my mother doing with that man?!" she screams.

Through the glass, they could clearly see Guan Xiao laughing with Shen Xia Fei. She Xia Fei even blushing after Guan Xian said several things.

Shen Ao Tian laughs and pointed out something for Xia Sha. "Looks like someone wanted to pursue you..."

"Aiyoyo, your mouth is so sweet!" Shen Xia Fei said after her laugh. Guan Xian grins and shamelessly said, "Aiya, aunty, I don't know is this a blessing or a curse. But whenever I see a beautiful woman my mouth just itching to spill out the truth."

Shen Xia Fei waves her hand with a gracious smile on her face. "Are you sure you just lying to get my daughter?"

This time Guan Xian laughs merrily. "No, ah! Aunty, you are prettier than your daughter. When I first saw you I thought you are Xia Sha's sister."

He then paused and lean into Shen Xia Fei's ear, whispering, "Although I'm not going to refuse if you give your daughter to me."

Shen Xia Fei's face lightens up, they giggles together until sarcastic remarks travel to their ears. "You even flirted with an old woman."

"Xia Sha..." Shen Xia Fei smiles and took steps to approach her. Xia Sha gave her a cold glance before look back at Guan Xian. Guan Xian who realized Xia Sha just misinterpreted his action smirked.

With on hand on his pocket and another hand still playing with the champagne glass he answers Xia Sha's accusations. "Are you jealous?"

Xia Sha looks like she could murder Guan Xian in any second. Guan Xian smiles and mother Shen giggles beside Xia Sha. Xia Sha opens her mouth several times but ends up closing it again.

"Aright, alright, don't be jealous. I haven't ask your mother out, yet."

Xia Sha stares at him with a disbelief look, she pointed at Guan Xian's nose as her lips twitched.

"You!..."

Guan Xian makes his index finger pointed at his self and followed Xia Sha. "Me...?"

"You are too much!" Xia Sha said in the end after struggling to find the perfect words to describe her pique. She felt like choking him to death.

"How? I only talk to your beautiful mom." Guan Xian pretends to be innocent and tapped his own chin. Guan Xian stops and stares momentarily before finishing his sentence.

"I see! Did you regret rejecting my offer to date? Now that I see your beautiful mother you felt threatened?"

That is the most ridiculous conspiracy theory Xia Sha ever heard. She hissed and quickly refute his words. "Nonsenses! You are spouting your ridiculous assumptions. Mom, you couldn't really take a liking into him right?" Xia Sha asked her mother.

If this before seeing the 'evidence' on Xia Qi Feng's hand, she would totally believe her mother is not someone who likes young meat. However, after those pictures, she felt like she couldn't believe her common sense anymore.

Shen Xia Fei look shocked Xia Sha asking that kind of question to her. What is she thinking?

"Of course not! I'm his mother's friend." Shen Xia Fei laughs it off under Xia Sha's accusing looks. It makes her comfortable and a little bit hurt...

"Hah, good thing you are well aware." Xia Sha murmured than look at Guan Xian again.

"You heard my mother? Don't try to take a step closer to my mother again, or else, you will have me as your enemy." Xia Sha said with all seriousness.

"XIA SHA! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" This time Shen Xia Fei almost screams. She looks at Xia Sha as if she doesn't recognize her own daughter.

Xia Sha whose heart is in a bad mood stare coldly at her own mother. "I'm saying it literally. Aren't you the one who keeps young meat behind me and my father?"

"gasp!"

Guan Xian felt awkward right now. His throat bobbed up and down as he tries to find a way to excuse himself.

"Xia Sha, it's not like how you and your father think..." Panic takes over aunty Shen's face. She quickly grabs unto Xia Sha's arm. Xia Sha furrowed his eyebrow.

She pushes away her mother's hand with mild energy. Not too harsh but enough to show she doesn't want to be touched by her. "I don't care, it's not like it still matters to me. Stop thinking you are still relevant."

Guan Xian was speechless. He just joking around with aunty Xia, who know Xia Sha would take it so personally and believe it too bluntly. Does he go too far this time?

But took pity at Shen aunty, he tried to clear things up to Xia Sha. "Xia Sha is not real. I still have some common sense and lines. However, I do think the way you talk to your mother is very disrespectful."

Xia Sha furrowed her eyebrow at Guan Xian. She stares at him from up to down, making him felt he is unworthy of her. Wait, what?

"Get a life! The way you keep meddling in my problem is so pathetic!" She gives him a cold glance before Strom off angrily from the room.
