Sparks

Several days after the weird accident in the club, Xia Sha has calmed down a lot and been busy working on her new project. Tomorrow they finally will launch their Xpods to the market.

The soft launching was today, where she choose Edison center to launch it and she will present the product herself. Looking at her maroon lips on the mirror she put on her cool face.

"You got this." She said to herself.

"I got this." She asserted it again to herself.

Fu Qun knocks the door and emerges from the little gap. "Boss, It's time," he said. Xia Sha nodded and bring her heels to come out from the room.

Standing backstage, she could listen to everyone clapping their hand. "Now we are going to invite the new COO of Xia Corporation to the stages. Please welcome, Ms.Xia Sha!"

A round clapping rang out as Xia Sha walk to the center of the stage. She could see his father proud face, Pang Ze Tian's sour smile, it arouses the confidence inside of her.

Then she saw Ruan Jing Tian, Zheng Shuang, and Kai Xin waving their hand to her. Xia Sha gives them a wide smile and keeps walking. The stages were wide, very wide that she started to see some stranges faces that shouldn't appear today.

It starts with Xiao Zhan grinning face, she could understand that he wanted to support her.

Then she saw Ling Guang's rigid face on the middle chair and starts to get a weird feeling inside his heart.

Then she saw several young masters on the chair, like a young master from the Ji family to the youngest and promising candidates of C city new mayor. Then she could spot someone that keep trying to make a scene these past few days.

Guan Xian sitting on the middle and front of the seats, clapping vigorously as their eyes meet and she stopped in the middle of the stage. She tried to ignore him and starts orating and explaining the features of her products.

Guan Xian knows how much the launching means to Xia Sha, so he quietly sat there supporting her from the audience seat. But something about Xia Sha makes his heart jumping excitedly.

Maybe it just the way how smart and capable her little mouth. Maybe how her eyes sparkle every time she mentioned the features of her products. The way she stands. Her perfect posture. Or maybe just the way she laughs at her own jokes.

He never knew a woman could be this interesting, yet beautiful to see.

"To conclude everything I've said, It's time for you to leave the tangled, ugly wires and replaced it with our futuristic Xpods."

The audience claps again.

Xia Sha's public speaking skill is greats. First of all, she created a 'needs' on her costumer's head before matching the need with her product. This way, she has win half of the audience money.

Xia Sha stood beside the emcee who has started the QnA session. Usually, when a company arranged a QnA session, it has prepared several people to ask a question that would enchant and highlight more of the special features from the products.

First, second, the third question has passed and Xia Sha can answers every question perfectly. However, Xia Sha's face instantly changed when one of the fair hands of the audience was raised.

"Um, Miss Xia, my name is Meng Ran. I am the senior secretary from Ling Bright Company. As well as we know, your previous company. Today I'm not going to ask about the product.." She said with resistances but a determination on her beautiful eyes.

"Then don't ask." Xia Sha cut her off quickly.

She felt much better when Meng Ran's face turns ugly and Ling Guang frowning beside of her. Panic-stricken on the emcee face but he proceeds to let a nervous laugh. "Hahaha, Miss Men, we only will provide an answer to the product."

Meng Ran wanted to cover her embarrassed face, but she stood still. With a gentle smile covering her ugly frowns she nods her head elegantly. "I use the wrongs words. Of course, my question is about your new product."

Ling Guang beside her has covered his head and tug her hand to cancel her stupid plan. "Sit down!" he hissed.

Xia Sha looks at Meng Ran with one eyebrow raised. Meng Ran gently tug her hair to her ears and ask, "I don't want to tell this in public eyes, but how can you do this to your old company. This Xpods is the next product of Ling Bright Company. Aren't you being too vicious right now?"

Everybody stunned while slowly the audience starts to create a bee sounds.

Xia Sha stood tall on the stage without moving, she still shows a glorious smile to Meng Ran.

Father Xia wanted to stand up and throw a fit. But under everyone's gaze, he needed to stay calm. In the end, he only can show how ugly his face right now. Pang Ze Tian tug his hand and brush it softly to calm his down.

Xia Qi Feng did not even care about her and keep looking straight at Xia Sha.

"To answer Ms.Meng's question, we legally have the patent right of Xpods but If it's not enough to satisfy your curiosity I must tell you and all my friends inside this Edison Center one fun facts." She gives signals to the multimedia people and the big screen changes into the picture of their old Bluetooth devices.

"Any of you still remember our product that launched in 2005? Yes, this is the first Bluetooth connected devices in the whole C nation. Designed by Shen Xia Fei, my mother and strung together by my father, now the CEO of Xia corporation Xia Qi Feng." She explained and pointed out the product with a red laser pointer.

"It was a failed product, only sales for 9800 pieces at that time simply because the product is ahead of times. Who did not know how this legendary product has bought this big company right now? This piece is the first generation of our Xpods. It is the inspiration for our products. So Ms.Meng, to say I 'steals' project from your company..." She paused and smirked, "It's an overstatement from you guys."

With that, she told people to snatch the mic from Meng Ran's hand and quickly move on to other questions. However, her action and statement have ignited the anger flames on Ling Guang's heart. He stood up and quickly left Meng Ran with an embarrassed face there.

Xia Sha smiles and looks happier as she watches them leave the room. Upon watching what happen, Guan Xian felt an urge to tease her. Ji Cun Xi has leaning closer to Guan Xian as he said, "How could your sister win against this girl? she's so smart!"

Guan Xian gives him a cool gleam before he ignores him. Right, she's smart but her little sister is not that dumb either. Moreover, she has so many people protecting her...

The truth is he has been trying to recall has he ever help Xiao Ni bullying this pitiful girl on the stage. If he did... Sigh, he could only hope she will forgive or forget about it.

Xia Sha has answer Meng Ran's accusation perfectly. But still, there are a lot of people who start to think that she stole Ling Bright's company project.

People have this weird mindset of big always bullying the small. In the same case as when there is an accident involves a car and motorcycle, no matter who is the wrong side, people would blame the car driver.

The Xia Corporation is so big, while Ling Bright company is a new rising startup. It was very common for a company in the technology fields to steals and copying.

Guan Xian knew Xia Sha would facing big trouble if he did not help her right now. Her life is almost in a brick of destruction, Guan Xian has no heart to ruin her career. So he stood up, his legs make his own way to the big stages, steals the emcee mic, and announced.

"Xpods is a great innovative product coming from Xia Corporation. I was greatly interested in this piece. It looks so well produced and planned. So coming from Guan Corporation's sincere heart, we wanted to invite Xia Company to join our Global Mart." He smiles and looks charming as he glances at Xia Sha.

Xia Sha look stupified in front of everyone. She couldn't stop her heart beating very fast with excitement. To join the Global Mart, it means it would give Xpods much bigger exposure and recognition. Xpods will be global.

Moreover, it's a big help for her company as Global Mart will only include the original product with a clean background. As for the stolen project, they could forget about entering the Global Mart.

In another hand, he was saying he believes she never stole Ling Bright company's project.

He raised his hand and tilted his head. "I hope we can have good teamwork."

Xia Sha swallowed her saliva and nod. Stretching her hand forcefully to shakes his hand. When their hands brush each other, in front of so many pairs of eyes below. Xia Sha felt a beautiful fireworks sparks.
