He almost went nuts again

Family plus Xiao Zhan's secret meeting after the scandalous BOD meeting was inevitable. Those directors did not even waste time to dilly dally with grandfather Xia who rarely come. When the moderator closed the conference, they flung away.

Grandfather Xia pointedly look at Xia Sha, who hangs her head low. Her disappointment was palpable. Did not dare to face more disappointment look from Xia Sha, grandfather Xia turn his head to his son.

"Why is she here? Can a dog and cat be part of my company board director now? What kind of joke is this?" he frowned at Xia Qi Feng.

Xia Qi Feng did not really understand what grandfather Xia is talking about until he caught Pang Ze Tian timidly seat at the end of the table. His forehead wrinkles, "What are you doing here?"

Acting like this, Xia Qi Feng is not giving his dear wife face at all. Usually, Xia Sha will be delighted, but this time she does not even care.

Pang Ze Tian is shuttering. In the end, she lowered her head and did not answer. Grandfather Xia still humped while father Xia looks at his father with the same fierce look.

"She has a little share and, Pang Zetian is lawfully my wife. What about you? I don't remember someone from the Xiao family has rights to appear on Xia's corporation board director meetings." Father Xia turns his icy cold glare at Xiao Zhan afterward.

Will, he ever forgot this boy who sneaks inside Xia Manor at night, broke his bedroom's window glass, and kiss his dear daughter under his nose?

Every time he saw this Xiao's family boy, he will remember that night when he realized his daughter has grown up. He hated it!

"Well, his grandfather asked me to teach him several things. Hence I bought him here." Grandfather Xia steals a glance at Xia Sha who hasn't move from her positions. Probably feeling guilty.

"Teaching him is one thing, robbing my daughter's hard work is another thing." Father Xia was so blunt in protecting Xia Sha.

Grandfather Xia scoffed then glare inwardly at Pang Zetian. "Giving my share without my consent is also robbing my hard work." Father Xia wanted to refute but Grandfather Xia has stopped him.

"My decision is absolute, all of you can go now. Xia Sha stay."

Xiao Zhan is the first one to move, along with him, Grandfather Xia's butler joined. Soon, Pang Zetian and Xia Qifeng gave Xia Sha and grandfather Xia their time.

It was so silencing that they can hear the air conditioner voice. After quite some time, grandfather Xia finally opens his mouth. Right at that moment, Xia Sha cut him.

"Is it because I'm a girl?"

Her sharp question almost makes grandfather Xia surprised, but what's more, he was amused.

"What are you talking about? have I ever treat you any differently because you are a girl?"

Xia Sha finally looked up after hearing his chuckles. She furrowed her eyebrow and shrug. "Grandmother prefer boys."

"Well, that is her. You are my only granddaughter. I only have you to dote on." His wrinkles show when he smiles and lean back to the chair. Xia Sha watches his movement calmly, interwinding her fingers together.

"Then why bought a man to rain on my parade?" she asked without showing her anger at all. Facing this question grandfather Xia finally shows some stress in his eyes.

"The tiger and the lion has decided to climb back to their mountain. This whole time, our family business was helped by the government. In return, we become their weapons to suppress the tiger and the lion."

The Lion undoubtedly is the Wang family while the tiger must be The Guan family. With Wang Kai and Xiao Ni's engagement, the power both parties hold will overrule the government.

"I must confess, those two families produce an outstanding descendant. These half years, they almost wrapped the government around their finger. Our family is in dangerous situations."

"And working with the Xiao is the only way to save us? what a cliche." Xia Sha let out a cold laugh.

"Sadly, yes, it's the only way."

"I see, we are in the 21st centuries but I guess something will never change. However, grandfather, If you want to sell your daughter, can you at least aim for a higher branch?"

"Xia Sha!" Grandfather Xia hit the table, creating a big sound. However, Xia Sha did not even blink and move. She stares at grandfather Xia soullessly before provoking him even more.

"Why am I only worth the Xiao family? Grandfather, don't worry I know what am I worth. If you about to sell me for the company might as well sell me to the Guan's!" with that Xia Sha storm off the meeting room furiously.

"Xia Sha, stop!"

"Xia Sha, comeback this instant!!!"

Grandfather Xia scream could be heard by all the people standing near the meeting room. Xia Sha did not even flinch as she walks away with a chin up.

Xia Qi Feng, Pang Ze Tian, Xiao Zhan, and grandfather's Xia trusted men are naturally still waiting for them to finish their chat. When they saw Xia Sha walking past them without even sparing a glance, Xiao Zhan instantly stands up to talk to her.

"Xia Sha, wait!" he jogged to catch up with her.

Xia Sha forehead clenched, she turns around and stops Xiao Zhan. "Stop. Whatever you are doing, just stop." She said with cold finality.

Xiao Zhan stops when that disdainful gaze falls upon him.

Xia Qi Feng strengthen up his suit and approached Xiao Zhan. Both men looked at Xia Sha's angry back with a different expression. One fills with sadness the other filled with adoration.

"Well, young boy. Wrong moves." Father Xia give him a kind smile before walking away.

***

Xia Sha was so furious and frustrated at the same time that she ends up driving to somewhere she doesn't know. Her car gas is low and she did not dare to drive further away.

Her surrounding was unexpectedly green and beautiful. Well, pardon her, it was breathtaking. There's tree everywhere and beside her there just a land filled with white dandelions. She gets out of her car to enjoy the view, clearing her states of mind.

The air was fresh, it makes her felt peaceful.

Her beautiful finger running through one of the dandelions in front of her. She leans her face to take a closer look. The flower is pretty and it smells nice. Unknowingly a smile appears on her face.

"It's okay to see, but don't pull out the flower." a warning rang out, before,

Blitz!

A blinding flash jolted Xia Sha from where she stood. She is in the middle of nowhere, who knows what danger she might meet. Moreover, there is not a single human being here. If someone kills her here...

She did not dare to continue her thought and readily run for her life when she saw a tall guy with his intoxicated smiles staring at her.

"You!" Xia Sha glare at him with an unhappy face.

Why is she keep meeting this guy, no stretch that! Why is this guy everywhere?

"Hey, we meet again!" he grins before averting his gaze back to his phone. Xia Sha just realized that this man has the audacity to take a picture of her. She frowns and furrowed her eyebrow.

"Erase it." She orders coldly.

"Erase what?" he acted dumb. Xia Sha gritted her teeth and take a deep breath.

"My picture on your phone! erase it!" A vein popped on her forehead while watching the man played with his phone happily. Instead of answering Xia Sha, he turns his eyes to the dandelion fields.

"My father made this dandelions field for my mother. Do you like it?"

Xia Sha lost of words. He bluntly trying to change the subject here.

"Erase my picture first!" she demanded.

Guan Xian shoves his phone deep into his pocket-deliberately. He then shows Xia Sha a haughty answer. "You've trespassing Guan's family private property. But I won't be too petty. I'll just take the picture as the tax you paid."

He walks away like a stranger afterward.

Xia Sha was dumbfounded. Fine, it just a picture, just treat him like a pathetic fan that yearns for his idol. Such a weird man, she would turn crazy if she keeps fighting words with him.

Xia Sha decided to look at the beautiful dandelions again. Feeling her spirit actually healed a little bit. The way the flower moved gracefully when the wind softly blows is just like hypnotherapy to her.

She secretly felt the picture are worth the view.

She just did not realize how many pictures she has taken without her knowing. Guan Xian smiles when he saw so many treasures stored in his phone gallery right now.

In fact, he did not know why he took her picture in the first place. It just, when she leans her porcelain face to enjoy the flowers the scenery appears very beautiful. It tugs his heart deeply. A sweet and gentle sensation keeps erupting when the images are created on his mind.

He almost went nuts again.
