Chapter 251 - Am I That Unreasonable In Your Eyes?! (1/2)
Xia Sha was grateful that she did not have to face Guan Xian's petty jealousy for a moment. Unfortunately, Guan Xian would not let her go away with Liem Ke Yong. At one point, Xia Sha still needs to clear the air between them.
Stealing a few nervous glances as her laughter died, Xia Sha finally mustered up her courage to tell Guan Xian.
”Guan Xian, what do you think about my past relationship?” Xia Sha asked in a spontaneous tone- as if she did not have a chain reaction of answer on her head.
Guan Xian raised his eyebrow at Xia Sha in amusement. Then his face went blank.
Xia Sha: ”...?”
”What does that suppose to mean?” Xia Sha finally broke the silence after Guan Xian played deaf for more than a minute.
Guan Xian's face was solemn as he wisely replied in a low tone, ”That mean, let's not talk about the past. It got nothing to do with our future.”
Xia Sha got dumbfounded by his answer. This dog man must've thought that she wants to bring up his not-so-glorious past.
”What if it got something to do with the future? My- Our future.”
Another moment of awkward silence surrounds the car as Guan Xian racks his brain. He tried to recall his mistake as fast as possible, but he couldn't find anything- Anything but the brief conversation with Ye Zhen Zhen at the restaurant.
Don't tell him that Xia Sha eats Ye Zhen Zhen vinegar? But she didn't even realize he was there until he tagged her on I-gram.
”It's hardly a conversation. I chase Ye Zhen Zhen away the moment I see her. Not to mention, you also have lunch with Liem Ke Yong when you are supposed to rest,” Guan Xian answers with brimming confidence. The spark of happiness that filled his heart reflects through the smile on his face.
”Ah? Ye Zhen Zhen was on the restaurant too?” Xia Sha furrowed her eyebrow in displeasure.
”It's not Ye Zhen Zhen? Then what is it?” Guan Xian enquires as he gives up finding his misdeed. But when Xia Sha was about to open her mouth, he quickly added, ”Don't be too petty! You sneak out to lunch with Liem Ke Yong. I haven't settled my account.”
Listening to his defensive answer provokes Xia Sha's anger. She hit Guan Xian's arm with mild energy and scoffs at him.
”Am I that unreasonable in your eyes?!”
”Nonsense! You are the most reasonable woman in the world,” Guan Xian answered instantly with such a calm face as if he was lying only to make her happy.
”...”
Forget it. Xia Sha finds it impossible to converse with Guan Xian without choking him to death right now. In the end, Xia Sha let out a resigned sigh and ignored Guan Xian.
The misunderstanding on Guan Xian's side worsens when Xia Sha shut her eyes. Her sign makes Guan Xian restless that he admits a defeat straight away.
”What is it?” he asked in a wary tone.
”Hmm, it's nothing,” Xia Sha answered nonchalantly.
Guan Xian is about to urge her to speak when Xia Sha voluntarily completes her sentence, ”It just someone said she had my sex tapes and tried to distribute in through the underground club.”
”Just an old high school trick to damage my pure reputation. It's nothing to worry about,” Xia Sha smiled sarcastically.
”Oh, don't get upset. I never made one. But, have you ever made one?” Xia Sha let out a dry laugh when she noticed Guan Xian's knuckle turning white on the steering wheel.
Sure enough, Guan Xian's face had darkened. He could not even hide the ugly frown on his face.
”And so, you meet that guy to find this bastard? Did you find who framed you?”
It's unusual for Guan Xian to be so stern. Xia Sha adjusted her seat and subconsciously straightened her back before she delivered her answer.
”Well, naturally, I have.”
”Then why do you sound unsure?” Guan Xian gives her a long side glance.
Xia Sha's gaze turns complicated. Her lips clap into a hard line as she shooked her head. There's slight agony on her face before she voices out her suspicion.
