Best if he loses everything

An ordinary morning on Xia Manor includes a lavish breakfast by the private chef their hire looking busy in the kitchen.

Xia Qi Feng seated on the house head chair while ignoring Pang Ze Tian who seat diagonally across of him.

Their family butler, Old Mr.Tu stand on the room corner busy with his smartphone.

"Well, Good morning Father and Mr.Tu!" Xia Sha greets them with the usual sarcastic smile.

"I'm very happy to welcome you back to the Xia company and manor young mistress Xia." Old Mr.Tu said with a smile of approval.

"Likewise Mr.Tu, how is your daughter? I believe a trip to the Bahamas improves your family quality time?" Xia Sha seated on across of Pang Ze Tian did not bother to greet her at all.

"Yes, It's a wonderful vacation." Old Mr.Tu replied with a dignified gesture.

Pang Ze Tian's face darkened but maintain her smile outside. "Xia Sha, I'm so glad that you finally join the company again."

Xia Qi Feng did not hide his proud smile too, he patted Xia Sha's back and said, "You are seeing the Xia's corporation new COO."

"Oh please, I believe being the COO of almost went bankrupt Xia Corporation is not that glorious seat." Xia Sha takes an apple from the middle of the table. Chewing it with style as she looks at Pang Ze Tian in provocative manners.

Xia Qi Feng did not take Xia Sha's sarcasm to heart for a long time ago. It helps his heart healthier and lives longer.

"Nearly bankrupt thanks to you and now I'm dragging you back to clean your own mess." Xia Qi Feng ate his french toast happily.

Xia Sha rolls her eyes. "Please, don't blame me that you did not have any innovation and stubbornly think golf session with your old buddies is the only way to get that million contracts signed."

Xia Qi Feng raised his eyebrow and smirk. He still thinks that way even if Xia Sha clearly beat him at his own game.

Pang Ze Tian on the other side racked her brain to make them change the topic. Seeing Xia Qi Feng and Xia Sha talking about work makes her feel like an outsider.

Xia Sha savviness and gesture a hundred percent the same as Xia Qi Feng's. It makes her heart cold and wary.

"Husband! Xia Xiang is on his third year already, maybe you could pull some string so she could have her internship in XC? You know the richer experience the better?" She tried to play it cool and shrug her shoulder.

Xia Sha laughs, she playfully raised her eyelids to Pang Ze Tian and Xia Qi Feng. "I see what you are doing there. Daddy someone feels threatened I come back to the company."

Xia Qi Feng pretends he heard of nothing and continue his meal. Pang Ze Tian was rendered speechless.

When she caught Xia Xiang coming down to the dining room nicely dressed she couldn't help but comment. "Ah, finally someone learns to dress up for breakfast, I'm actually quite proud."

Xia Xiang cheek flushes and clearly offended with Xia Sha's word. She is reminding her about her silly action in the past, wearing pajamas for breakfast on her first-day move to Xia manor.

"Good morning Father, Mother," She greets Xia Qi Feng and Pang Ze Tian, who gives her a sweet smile back before looking at Xia Sha with a sour face, "sister," she called.

Xia Sha raised her hand and stop Xia Xiang there. "Ugh! It's hard enough having breakfast with your mother cheat whore like perfume, don't make me puke in the morning."

She pretends to be nausea and stands up from her seat when Xia Xiang took a seat next to her. "Daddy, as long as I love breakfast in Xia manor, I could not stand these." She did not directly point at Pang Zhe Tian and Xia Xiang.

"Excuse me," she smiles and walks away.

Xia Qi Feng pretends nothing happens and gestures for mother and daughter to continue their breakfast.

Pang Ze Tian is so angry that her whole face turns red. "Husband! I felt your daughter need some etiquette lesson from the best teacher."

Xia Qi Feng looks like he just heard a joke. "HoHoHo, don't you think she did not take the etiquette lesson?" He tilted his head and lips quirks up.

Be actually look quite proud.

But realizing Xia Xiang's moisten eyes and Pang Ze Tian fury, he stops laughing and straighten his back.

"Don't mind her, it just how Xia family is."

Xia Corporation COO's office.

Walking in Wellesley Double Breasted Wool Coat Dress by Ralph Lauren, Xia Sha did not even introduce herself to her assistants.

"Good morning Ms.Xia, My name is Fu Qun, I'm your appointed personal assistant." The male in 173 cm wearing professional work attire that satisfied Xia Sha enough.

"Good, because I deadly need americano, less ice, no sugar, and meet with the Financial, Marketing, Developing, and Research team. I'm expecting you to work until 10 P.M but you could have your free time from 5 to 7 if you succeed in arranging a meeting with Mr.Lemiere that just arrived half hour ago from NYC." She took paused as she opens the door to her office.

Fu Qun quickly records Xia Sha's every word. It took Xia Sha's too surprised but she quickly winked, "smart" she praised.

Fu Qun grins and said thanking her for her praise but face quickly went dark when Xia Sha said the complete explanation.

"Yeah, you might need to hurry now because apart from Ling Bright Electronic, Xiao Family Holding and the Guan group is also pouching him. He's having lunch with Mr.Xiao Zhan in Sky Longue, you can pouch him there. It's okay to be a little bit shameless. Don't be afraid to offend Mr.Xiao, he's a good friend of mine. We can sort it out later, business comes first."

Fu Qun nodded planning to search Mr.Lemiere background and likeness after ordering coffee for Ms.Xia.

Xia Sha sat on the expensive suit and make herself comfortable. She opens the computer and remembers something. She looks at Fu Qun again and smiles creepily, "Please send top IT team from our department, someone with hacking background to my office, black or white hacker did not matter, now."

Shivers down Fu Qun's spine but he quickly nods his head and makes it the top priority. He felt like this new boss of him going to rock this company.

Running away, well kind of, from Xia Sha he diligently writes his to-do list and starts working.

Xia Sha did not waste any time too, starting when the IT personal come to her office she sends her command to hack into Ling Bright company servers.

Luckily Ling Guang is stupid enough to only have 5 walls of protection in his personal server and did not change his password!

Such a perfect opportunity might miss if Xia Sha did not work hard. She looks at the man who seats on her desk right now, "Got it?"

The man nodded his head and smiles. Xia Sha's whole expression lifted up she claps her hand together.

"Good job! Now can you attack this server with a virus?" She raised her right eyebrow, expecting a good answer from the IT Personel.

The IT boy nods his head, looking a little bit wicked he asked, "How much damage did we expect here?"

Xia Sha immediately taking the liking of this man, her face lifted up. "Ho! Best if he loses everything."

The boy nodded and quickly do his thing when Xia Sha's vacant phone on the desk rang.

"COO of Xia Corporation, Xia Sha is talking. Considering you manage to convince my Secretary to channel your phone means you are quite capable of I need to fire someone." She shows a little mean smile and waits for the other person to talk.

"Xia Sha, It's me, Ling Guang." The baritone voice enough to make Xia Sha disgusted.

"Ew, she needs to be fired." Xia Sha wanted to hang up immediately, but Ling Guang stop her move when he said,

"I wanted to apologize!"

Xia Sha's hand and the phone were still in the mid-air.

"I should have helped you but I'm so surprised that I froze in my place. I'm sorry..." He sounds sincere that Xia Sha willing to hear him out.

"I could be raped by that disgusting man, you realized that, right?" Xia Sha said in a low voice, only realizing the IT boy stare at her.

She nudges the phone, moves it a little bit farther away, and whisper. "Woman needs to be cautious every day."

She went back to hear Ling Guang and ignore the IT boy's weird expression.

"I know Xia Sha, that's why I'm sending your project file right now to you. I notice that you changed your email, where should I send it to?" Ling Guang let out a heavy breathe at the end.

Xia Sha glance at the computer that is filled with binomial numbers. She smirks, "Yeah, sure, my new email is XiaSha@XiaCorp.com, please send it before 12."

"Okay," Ling Guang answer and end the call.

Xia Sha pursed her lips, almost couldn't hide her big smile. She really hopes she installed CCTV on Ling Guang's office and see how hilarious his face when he found out someone hacked his server.

"Who told you to mess with me."

***

Global World Mall, Capital City, C Nation.

Two women wearing expensive designer clothes walk side by side. Two of them wearing black shades, adding the exclusive look they aim to achieve.

"Xia Xiang, that is not your fault at all. Xia Sha's heart is full of heart, reflecting her ugly words and action." Meng Ran console Xia Xiang, trying to cheer her up.

"Yes, I know that. I just can't stand her looking down at me anymore!" Xia Xiang sulks.

Meng Ran rolls her eyes. Lucky you send only attack you with words. That crazy bitch is beating me to black and blue for godsakes, what did you have to look like she bullied you more than she bullies me?

Meng Ran got tired of Xia Xiang recently. Instead of complaining and asking her to buy things, this girl did not have any use anymore.

She quickly replaces her nasty face with a warm smile to Xia Xiang. "Come on, don't be sad. You are not lower than her anymore, you could be higher than her instead, you have a good heart and a beautiful face."

Xia Xiang feels a lot better right now. After the breakfast insult from Xia Sha, she is having a major bad mood. That's why she ignores her mother's words and went to contact Meng Ran.

"I'm so glad I have a friend like you." Xia Xiang spread her arm to hug Meng Ran. Both of them laugh, which the author doesn't know whether it's real or fake.

They settle for a restaurant in the mall because Xia Xiang is hungry.

"I'll just have a salad, I'm on my diet program," Meng Ran said to the waitress. Xia Xiang on the other hand, stunned when Meng Ran only order a salad and juice.

She's so thin but still dieting, is she mocking on her whose size is bigger but ordering so many oily foods?

Xia Xiang over sensitive personally makes her in a bad mood again. "Oh yeah, you need to keep your body in shapes. Brother Ling Guang is so lucky to have you."

Meng Ran cheeks flushed and wave her hand shyly. "Aiya, what are you spouting about."

"I'm not kidding. Xia Sha eats so much and never work out, she couldn't be compared to your determination and hard work."

it's actually a sarcasm in Meng Ran's ears. Xia Sha has a killer body, never work out and eat whatever she wanted. That's every girl's dream!

In the end, both of them laugh dryly while waiting for their food to arrived. At this time, a man with a noble aura and charming smile enter the restaurant.

"Mr.Guan, you usual private table?" Xia Xiang and Meng Ran could hear how careful and polite the waitress talking.

The man wanted to nod but caught sight of two woman seating on the public chair. Hesitating a bit, he nods his head to the waitress but he revealing such a playful smile afterward.

His a long leg walk to approach the two young women. Meng Ran and Xia Xiang heart almost burst out when Guan Xian walking with his long leg.

The man is handsome, powerful, and wealthy. A man who could make any woman fall in love the second he talks to them. His movement is casual but sensual at the same time.

It tugs every woman's heart, especially Meng Ran and Xia Xiang when he stops at the table. "Two beautiful ladies are having a nice time, mind if this man has the opportunity of inviting them to his private table?"

He smirk.

Xia Xiang and Meng Ran were left dumbstruck. Without realizing it, they nod their head earnestly and follow the bewitching man to his table.
