Chapter 70: I'll Make Sure You Will Be Mine

Ling Guang could easily find Meng Ran between the illegitimate daughter's assemble. They are so loud when they chat, but they are probably the least complicated crowd in the room. 

"It's okay, sister Meng. Losing to Xiao Ni is not embarrassing at all. She never loses," one girl said. A sour smile formed on Meng Ran's innocent face. 

"I know. It just a shame Ling Guang lose the golden hairpin to Xia Sha too." Meng Ran pursed her lips, looking like a pitiful white rabbit.

If Ling Guang heard this in the past, he will felt guilty and sorry for losing. However, now he has known Meng Ran's real motive, he had no feeling left for her, except for regrets. 

How stupid is he, losing Xia Sha for Meng Ran? 

Alas, he usually ignores the thoughts because he hates admitting he is wrong. However, Xia Sha smiles just now has made changes in his heart right now. 

Thus, when he looks at Meng Ran's fake pitiful expression, he felt nothing but hatred. When Ling Guang approaches the group, he merely smiles politely before pulling Meng Ran's wrist. 

"Meng Ran, I need to talk to you," He said with a flat tone and minimal smiles. Meng Ran knew Ling Guang is about to scold her again, so she tries to avoid him. But seeing the impatient look from his eyes, she swallows her idea and quietly follows him. 

"Guan Xian did not give the flash disk to Xia Sha." Ling Guang informs as soon as they got to the quiet place. Meng Ran's face lightens up as her eyes curled into a smile. 

"Ah! I knew it." 

"Now is your chance to take it back from him." Ling Guang almost did not listen to Meng Ran and immediately say his point. Meng Ran rolls her eyes and looks at Guan Xian, who is sitting far from where they stand. 

"How? I don't even know where did he put the flash disk." Meng Ran said reluctantly. 

"That is not my problem to solve. I don't care. If Xia Sha got the file, you are doomed." Ling Guang cruelly turns his back to Meng Rang and left her alone. In his opinion, he is kind-hearted enough to give Meng Ran this information. 

Meng Ran shot a gaze full of hatred at Ling Guang's back before averting her gaze to Xia Sha. 

"You witch! If you still want Ling Guang, why don't you take him back? Why did you need to bewitch Guan Xian's too?" She murmured before stomping her feet back to her crowd while finding the opportunity to take the flash disk back.

The boring chattering stopped when slow music starts to play in the background. A couple of couples is enjoying themselves on the dance floor. The atmosphere they created is sweet, while the onlookers felt the sourness by watching them. 

Xia Sha is one of those onlookers. But she hides her pathetic sides behind a beautiful smile and a glass of champagne in her hand. Xia Sha has forgotten how many glasses she had emptied. But her mind is still as clear as the bright chandelier. 

"I'm going to refill my drink," Xia Sha said before stepping away from Xiao Zhan, who is standing next to her. 

"Stop drinking. You've finished the fourth glass now. it's enough." Xiao Zhan took the glass from Xia Sha's hand. Xia Sha narrowed her sight at him and frowned. 

"You are not my dad," She sassily said before forcefully take back her glass. 

"Yeah, I'm not. But I care for you probably more than your dad does. So listen to me and stop drinking." Xiao Zhan raised his eyebrow and smiles. He stretches his hand to take back the empty glass. 

Xiao Zhan attempts to take the glass almost succeeds if another hand didn't meddle. Just like the other day in the hotel, Guan Xian tapped Xiao Zhan's shoulder and interrupted them. 

"She wanted to drink, let her drink," The ever-enigmatic voices get the attention of Xiao Zhan and Xia Sha. 

Facing the curious, big eyes, Guan Xian looks at the nearest waitress, and he immediately takes a new glass of champagne and approaches them.

Xiao Zhan's face darkens as he said, "Senior, I'm thankful for your concern for us. But-"

"Oh, you don't have to worry. I'm not concerned about you," Guan Xian answer, while his hand leisurely give newly filled champagne to Xia Sha. 

Xiao Zhan: "..." I'm not talking about me either.

Xia Sha takes the glass hesitantly as she lowered her gaze to the hand, which holds the crystal glass. There is a teeth mark there. Xia Sha's lips twitched when she saw it. She quickly retracted her gaze before Guan Xian's caught her.

"It still stings. For your information."

Yup, he did catch her staring at the mark. 

Guan Xian is standing between her and Xiao Zhan right now. Xiao Zhan could easily see the mark too. He lifted his head and turned to Xia Sha with questioning looks.

"Well, my pride is still stinging too," Xia Sha tried to sound nonchalant, but her red cheeks betrayed her. God knows how hard for her to forget about his 'indecent' acts at the balcony. 

Moreover, the trace he left every much remind her every second. 

"Well, I hope it stings for a long time. So you'll keep thinking of me," Guan Xian grinned and kissed the top of her hand. 

Xia Sha widens her eyes and looks at him in disbelief. Guan Xian's sudden acts had gain attention from more people instantly. Xia Sha quickly pulls her hand and glares at him.

"What are you doing ?!" She snapped at him.

"You promise me to dance, so I come to collect it," Guan Xian didn't mind her respectful answer. Instead, his tone got even gentler than before. 

Xia Sha gritted her teeth while surpassing the bursting feeling on her stomach. Why can't he give up already have? She has done everything to push him away. Why did he keep coming around?

"You wouldn't go away until I agree, right?" She scoffed. Try to calm the butterfly on her stomach and tingling heart. 

"You know the answer to that, beautiful." Guan Xian tilted his head. He pointed at the dancing floor with his chin, showing his gummy smiles. 

Xia Sha's common sense lose from her heart once again as soon as he sees his smiles. Her inner goddess scream when she heard her says, "Fine. A promise is a promise."

Guan Xian stretches out his hand once again to lead her to the dance floor. However, Xia Sha ignores his hand and walk on her own. Guan Xian wrinkled his nose and shook his head silently. 

Before she walks too far, he left Xiao Zhan and chased her steps. 

A smug face hides her shyness, Xia Sha dance under the luxurious chandelier. Guan Xian's hand cover almost half of her back. While their chest almost touches, she keeps avoiding looking at him. 

"So, about what happened on the balcony," He whispers slowly.

Guan Xian starts a conversation while putting her head close to his chest. His fast heart rate rang out at Xia Sha's ears once again. She felt familiar.

"There is nothing to discuss that. I don't like you, and we can't date." Xia Sha cut him off before he starts to mention the topic she avoids.

Guan Xian's reflects is to pull his upper body to the back and look at Xia Sha with a fake surprised look. "You don't like me, but you kiss me back. Xia Sha, who thought you to spout out terrible lies like this." 

Xia Sha felt her ears and back is burning. She could felt his hand caress her back slowly and gently in a circular motion. His eyes alighted with hidden desires pointedly look at her.

"I guess your skin is so thick that my slap doesn't leave an impression," Xia Sha's eyes travel all over the room, only to avoid looking back at those deep, brown eyes.

Guan Xian got annoyed, but he could not use his hand to stop her from moving around. So he cleverly widens his eyes, and when her guard slack off for a bit, he brings his head closer to her in a quick movement. 

"The slaps don't, but the kiss certainly does." His sudden movement makes Xia Sha look at him in surprise. Their eyes finally met, and it makes Guan Xian smiles. 

Xia Sha stunned for a moment as her brain froze. Her body sways along with him and the rhythms. The ballroom is crowded with people, but for Xia Sha, it seems like there is only the two of them there. 

"Xia Sha, do you trust me that I won't give up until you be mine?" He suddenly asked. There are not even the slightest jokes on her tone. It's like he is not asking her question but declaring something. 

"Our differences, my reputation, your stone-cold heart. I'll break them all.. And when I did, I'll make sure you will be mine."
