Xia Sha looked at Xiao Zhan tensely. From afar, they look like they about to rekindle their old flames. Guan Xian's grip on his crystal glass just got tighter and tighter even though the smile still plastering his face.
"I admire that boy from Xiao family, really," Wang Kai raised his eyebrow. The sight of Xiao Zhan whispering something to Xia Sha's ear intimately before she laughs is far from them. But clearly, Guan Xian witnesses it all with a dark face.
Damn it, where is the part of 'I am interested in this girl so stay away from here' this Xiao family did not get?
Wang Kai's strategy of push and pull is killing him right now. Why can't he push pull her to his side and never let Xiao Zhan talk to Xia Sha again? Watching them from afar and acting cool is really tortorous.
"So, risk it all, huh." Ji Cun Xi stare at Xia Sha's bold moves amusingly. Not everyone dares to trick Guan Xian so bluntly like this. Guan Xian narrowed his eyes at Cun Xi, the first time since forever he has shown his anger.
Jian Jun see this and patted his back several times. "Calm down. You look like an angry bull."
Guan Xian clicks his tongue and sips his anger away. But the fire inside his heart won't go away. Instead, he feels more agitated than before.
He turns to Wang Kai, bluntly asks, "How could you deal with this feeling?"
"What feeling? The need to kill another man nears your woman? Oh, I'm familiar with that thrilling feeling." Wang Kai raised his eyebrow and smiles.
He is thankful that Xiao Ni is too lazy to go to a party like this. Because if she comes, he will be busy all night glare at those hungry wolves.
"You ask this guy how to deal with jealousy?" Ji Cun Xi laughed and put his arm around Wang Kai's shoulder. "He is the worst man. Do you remember who come with the rules of selecting man that took a liking at Xiao Ni?"
Guan Xian: "..." Right, he forgot just because he knocked some sense on him several days ago on the X city.
Guan Xian looks at his three outstanding brothers one by one and felt they are too useless this time. He shook his head helplessly.
"For the first time, I felt our group consisted of stupid people."
Wang Kai's eyebrow raised up. But none of them took his words seriously. Everyone in their group knew, who look the most stupid out from their group this time.
It just the right time when Meng Ran spotted Guan Xian standing with his outstanding group. Like a rare diamond, his group becomes the sole attention of the show. Compared to Ling Guang's small group right now, they stand out like the only light in the dark.
Meng Ran is hesitant to approach the great god, but when she sees Xiao Xing on the west door, her eyes brighten up. "Honey, I'm going to greet the daughter of Xiao family,"
Ling Guang furrowed her eyebrow, "Xiao Le, from the steel company?" he asked, but when he followed Meng Ran's eyes he realized it's the illegitimate daughter of Xiao Corporation.
"Sure," he said before joining the conversation with three other men in his little group. Since Xiao Yu is investing in Bright Electronic company, there is no harm for Meng Ran to accompany Xiao Xing. Meng Ran walks toward Xiao Xing's direction with a warm smile.
Xiao Xing, who starts to felt anxious and lonely at this big party were glad when she spotted Meng Ran. "Meng Ran, I'm glad you are here."
"Me too. Did you come alone here?" Meng Ran asked, actually want to find out about Xia Xiang who never calls her again after their last meeting.
"Well, Xia Xiang did not come today." She smiles awkwardly. There is no need to explain further.
The news of Xia Sha moving out from the Xia manor again has spread. Xia Xiang must be the reason behind this, so Xia Qi Feng did not let the mother and daughter pair to join today's important party.
"Ah, I see. So who are you vying tonight?" Meng Ran asked with fake excitement. While there is no secret this young girl is head over heels with Wang Kai. That also not a secret her mom wanted to match her with Guan Xian.
So she might find an opportunity by staying beside Xiao Xing tonight.
"Well, my mom said she will sort something to make Guan Xian dance with me tonight. We'll wait and see." She said while blushing.
"You are so lucky! so envious!" Meng Ran did not hide her jealousy this time, she even makes a joke out of her envious heart. Xiao Xing giggles and cover her mouth with her hand.
"Well, since your mother has planned things out for you, why don't you approach him first? We can use my work affairs as your alibies." Meng Ran slyly makes this her opportunity.
This way, Ling Guang wouldn't know she takes the initiative to approach Guan Xian and Xiao Xing could be her cover when he talks to Guan Xian later.
"We can, right now?" Xiao Xing's eyes flare up in surprise.
Right now, Guan Xian is standing with Ji Cun Xi, Jian Jun and her forever crush, Wang Kai. They attracted so many eyes, yet no one dares to bother them. How could she waisted a golden opportunity like this?
Standing close to Wang Kai...
She nods her head in no time. Meng Ran's smile graciously before the two of them walks to the center of the event.
"Mr. Guan, Mr. Wang, Mr. Ji, Mr. Jian," Meng Ran politely greet them one by one while Xiao Xing lowering her head shyly. Seeing these two-woman bravely approaching the four great god, everyone looks at them curiously.
"Oh, Mr. Ling's secretary," Guan Xian forced a smile while replying to Meng Ran's greeting nonchalantly. He is not in a mood to chat with her right now, but he realized this girl could still be used to help Xia Sha in the future.
"Hello, my name is Xiao Xing." Xiao Xing said shyly in an adorable and silent way. She silently glances at Wang Kai who had averted his gaze to another direction. Did not even spare his energy to look at the two women.
"Mr. Guan, I've been trying to contact you after our meeting in the global world last time. I'm so amazed by how busy you are." Meng Ran said to Guan Xian with a polite smile.
Guan Xian smiles quietly at this question while Ji Cun Xi has to press his lips to hold his laughter. "Well, it's still manageable." Guan Xian replied curtly.
'4 times golfing a week, billiard games every night, going on dates every Saturday night until Sunday morning. Mr. Guan is really busy.' Ji Cun Xi whisper among them, which only Guan Xian and Jian Jun beside him could hear.
"I've been thinking about your words the last time. I'm greatly motivated by your words and I want to thank you." Meng Ran said, wearing the best smiles she had.
To be honest, Guan Xian did not remember what rainbow fart he has said to Meng Ran. Thus he just nods his head with a faint smile. "Also, about the investment, you wanted to make at Bright-"
"Damn it! Why did she come?" Wang Kai who never spoke suddenly cursing. Surprising their little group. Following the direction Wang Kai is facing, Meng Ran and Xiao Xing's face went pale.
Standing there, wearing a black leather jacket in minidress form and black heels, revealing her white and slender legs. As if her dress is not eyecatching enough, she had a bold red lipstick on her alluring lips and suddenly turn blonde for tonight.
Xiao Ni stole the spotlight in no time.
Her beautiful big eyes landed on their little group but she did not walk in their direction. Instead, she walks toward the girl wearing a strapless red dress with Swarovski all over the top and tugs her hand.
"Come with me," she said to the woman in a red dress in a cold manner. The woman turned to Xiao Ni with a frown, she did not felt intimidated at all and refuse to come with her.
"No," she answered.
Xiao Ni pulled her hand anyway, ignoring her rejection like it never happened. Walking towards their little group right now, Meng Ran and Xiao Xing almost wet their pants.
If someone they adore and scared at the same time it's Guan Xiao Ni. Now Guan Xiao Ni holding Xia Sha's hand while glaring at them...
They don't know how to cope with these frightening feelings.
Awkwardness filled the whole ballroom when Xiao Ni stop in front of Xiao Xing and Meng Ran. Xia Sha is one step behind Xiao Ni who comes looking like she wants to start a fight.
In everybody's eyes, they knew Xiao Ni is about to do something to this little Xiao family illegitimate daughter. Everyone is witnessing her shy glance at Wang Kai all the time while hearing her mother's ambition to match her with Guan Xian.
