Xia Sha felt relief when she sees the warm, bright light from the Shen family residence. Still resting her head on the window, she looked at her mother with a tired look. 

"Mom..." She called out with a little voice. She sounds weak, nothing like her fierce performance an hour ago. 

"Hm?" Her mother looked at Xia Sha with her usual elegant demeanor. 

"How can you keep your cool like that?" Xia Sha smile warily.

Calmness is one of the best traits from her mother that she didn't have. Sure, she can be very chatty sometimes and fought a lot with Xia Qi Feng. But most of the time, she is calm and preserves. 

"I knew them sooner than you. I shouted until I lose my voice already." Her mother holds her breath before sighing heavily. "Xia Sha, Mommy apologized to you. I didn't give you the option to choose back then. I was a wreck."

The most thing Shen Xia Fei regretted in her life is didn't fight for Xia Sha. Xia Qi Feng said they could divorce, but Xia Sha needs to stay with him because Xia Sha is his only heir.

Although Xia Qi Feng is a jerk as her mother-in-law sometimes could be difficult, all of them dotes on Xia Sha. So Shen Xia Fei reluctantly agrees with them. Thus, leaving Xia Sha in the Xia manor. 

Who would have known her daughter has been treat like this?

Xia Sha caught her mother's red eyes before she could hide it from her. Xia Sha smiles weakly at her mother. "It's the first time grandfather get so angry at me. I never suffer any injustice before. At least not on Grandpa's watch," she explains.

Shen Xia Fei looked at her with a sad eye. Silent felt the car once again. 

"Mom, is it true that you cheated on father? Is that why you divorce?" Xia Sha said slowly, almost goes unheard. Shen Xia Fei's expression changed into a shocked face. 

"You believe your father?" 

Xia Sha choked and averted her gaze. She didn't dare to see the disappointment in her mother's eyes. 

"I don't, but he shows me pictures." Xia Sha bites her tongue, regretting her stupidness to discuss this topic right now. 

"Mom, say something. I will believe whatever you said," Xia Sha said with hopeful eyes. 

Shen Xia Fei lowered her lashes and patted Xia Sha's tight beside her gently. 

"Why would I ruin my own family?" 

Relieved smiles appear on Xia Sha's face, and she went to hug her mother. Her mother gently brushes her hair and now questions her back. "Now, enough about me and my past. What about you, you have no feeling for Xiao Zhan anymore?"

"No," Xia Sha didn't even have to think twice to answer. Before, she might think for a while about Xiao Zhan, but after what he did today, she officially places him on her hate list. 

"No wonder he looks so desperate," Shen Xia Fei mumbles make Xia Sha giggles. 

"We've ended up for so long. I have no planning to jump into the same boat again." 

"So you are hopping on the Guan's family big boat, I see." Her mother put on a teasing expression. Xia Sha sat up from her mother hug and blush. 

"Mom!" 

"What? Your cousin told me this morning at about Jian Jun's party. Hm, Although he has quite a reputation, he doesn't look that bad. Instead, I can feel very positives vibes emitting from him." Her mother commented with a delighted smile. 

Xia Sha pursued her lips and shook her head. 

"What positives vibes? Every time I come near him, all I can smell is trouble," Xia Sha lips twitched because she tries to hide her smiles. 

"Are you sure you aren't talking about yourself? Look at how you didn't even flinch when your grandfather slams a glass on you. I bet you have got a rich experience." Her mother's face turns sours. 

It could have hit her face for the love of God! And this girl didn't even blink. Instead, she went to anger the old-man even more. 

Xia Sha wanted to refute her mother's words, but then she remembers her action at Jian Jun's party. Well, nevermind. 

Talking about Guan Xian, she suddenly remembers he told her to text him yesterday night. However, she is too angry to check her phone because of Xiao Zhan that night, continued by the long ass meeting. 

She just realized she hasn't checked her phone at all today. 

So after arrive at the Shen residence and take a bath to refreshen herself, she finally takes out her phone from his bag. Her heart pounded when her pitch-black phone lit. 

62 miss-call from My handsome Boyfriend.

119 chat from My handsome Boyfriend.

5 emails from [email protected]

Her heart beating heart suddenly sank. The feeling of happiness, along with guilt, strangely could drift her tired heart away.

She is going to call him back when his name pops up on her call log. She cleared her throat and straightened her back before answering his call. 

"Hello?" She greets him first with a nervous voice.

"Finally! Where have you been?" Guan Xian's irritation is palpable through his tone. Xia Sha's lips corner slightly lifted. 

"I'm sorry, because of your unpredictable moves, I have to sit on ten hours-long meetings." 

Right on the top floor of the Grand Palais Apartment, Guan Xian's angry face turn into a worried. "You didn't eat for the whole day? Had you eaten now? Where are you?"

"I've eaten." Xia Sha bites her lowers lips. Listening to his series of questions make her felt jittery. She couldn't explain the explosions of feeling inside her right now. 

Hearing his worried tone sounds so strange, but it's addicting. 

"Of course, you better be!" He sounds irritated again. 

"Hmph, I still couldn't believe you ignored me on our first day as a couple. Xia Sha, do you have a heart? How could you be this cruel to your new boyfriend?!" He wanted to show her that he is angry, but his voice comes out as complaining and sounds like he wants to coaxed instead.

Xia Sha unbelievably laughed at him. 

He scoffed and rolled his eyes. "Fine, Laugh! Laugh for all you want. It's true what people say. Those who love more get hurt more." 

"Sorry," Xia Sha tried to stop her laughter, but she can't. He finally gives her time to laugh for all she wanted. Without knowing, it is something that she needs right now. 

She laughs until she starts to sob. Surprising Guan Xian that he instantly stood up from his seat with eyes wide open. 

"Why are you crying? Xia Sha, what happens?" His forehead clenched, forming a few lines on his smooth skins. 

What the actual-? Why is this woman crying? 

He is sure the Xia Corporation is not in danger position anymore after he went to negotiate with the Secretary of Commerce. 

He also listens to Xiao Ni and stops letting other women take advantage of his name, as it would anger Xia Sha, Xiao Ni said. What the hell has done and make her upset?

Because he calls her heartless? Oh no!

"Nonono, My foul mouth like to say nonsense. You are not heartless! I'm a heartless one! Please don't cry," He begged.

She suddenly remembers that time when Guan Xian denying himself when she cried in his car after Ling Guang cheated on her. 

"I'm so sad right now," sob and frown. "Why I always cry like this in front of you. I'm so ashamed of myself!!" She sobs even louder. 

Guan Xian frowned. "Then, don't cry, please? You tell me what should I do to make you happy. Do you want food delivery? I could buy food and send it to your hotel now," he asked carefully. 

Xia Sha does feel hungry right now. But she is going to bed with her mom, what reason she should say to her mom? 

"No, I don't want food." She said after calming herself. 

"Really? You don't want KFC. You like KFC! It safe you from hurting yourself once." He said in an earnest tone. 

He makes her feeling touched to angry real quick! 

"Guan Xian, I think we need to straighten out your twisted mind before we could be in a relationship. I didn't want to hurt myself at that time. You. didn't. save. me. nor. the. Fried. Chicken!" 

"Okay. Okay. Listen to you," Guan Xian agreed without throwing a fuss. Xia Sha hmph then wipes away the tears left on her cheek. 

"Not crying anymore?" he asks quietly, before adding, "Want to tell me about it?" 

Xia Sha snot. It would be pathetic if she said she didn't cry before. So she made up some excuse. 

"The Yangtze finless porpoise and the Baiji dolphin are critically endangered because of humans. Human is so cruel." 

"You cry because of dolphin?" His flat voice sounds funny when Xia Sha imagines his flat face. Her cheek flushed, then reply with a soft "hm."

"You almost make my heart stop beating! I thought it's because of me!" He let out a relief exhales exaggeratedly. "So, what is this dolphin did? His family wanted to enter the same genus? family? order? class? with your species?"

Xia Sha closes and opens her mouth in amusement. He didn't just equalize Xiao and Xia's family by the Animal Kingdom order, didn't he?

"How could you know?" She mumbles. 

Guan Xian sits on his working desk as he is facing the beautiful night view of the Capital City from his penthouse. 

"Check the flash disk, honey.." He smirks.
