100 years before Divorce - Chapter 215

Xia Sha had a big grin as she bids her goodbye to Wen Rou. She watched the car that drives Wen Rou until it disappears from her sight. When she turned her body, Xia Qi Feng had a stand in front of her. With tears on his tired face, he pulled Xia Sha into a hug.

“Dad?” Xia Sha’s voice comes out hoarse as she is still surprised by the sudden hug and tears. She had seen Xia Qi Feng hold his tears, but she never watches him crying in front of her.

Xia Qi Feng was quiet for a long time. He just stood there with Xia Sha inside his embrace. It was until Xia Sha hears a gentle whisper, “Xia Sha, I’m so proud of you, and I apologize for being absent this whole time. Dad will make it up for you, I promise.”

Xia Sha got puzzeled by Xia Qi Feng’s words. She does not understand what happens to her father while she is away.

“Dad, what happened? You don’t have to make it up for me. I am great right now. I felt like everything in my life starts to fall in place,” Xia Sha smiles and pulls away from her father.

Xia Qi Feng was genuinely happy to see sincere smiles on his daughter’s face. He suddenly felt emotional as he realized how much his little princess had grown into an independent and smart woman.

The energy between Xia Sha and Xia Qi Feng felt harmonious as they smile at each other. Ji Cun Xi almost cried in the corner when something sparkling on Xia Sha’s hand caught his attention. He blinked many times before he widened his eyes and gasped.

“I heard wedding bells ringing, nice ring,” Ji Cun Xi left a hint for Xia Qi Feng, who hasn’t realized the situations going on with his daughter right now.

“Why are you still here?” Xia Sha ignored his mischievous remark.

Ji Cun Xi keeps his calm and remains smiling, disregarding the annoyed look Xia Qi Feng gives to him because Ji Cun Xi ruined his little bonding moment with Xia Sha.

“Xia Sha, where is Guan Xian?” Ji Cun Xi smirked.

“He is still in the hospital. I think-”

Ji Cun Xi squinted his eyes upon hearing the hesitation in Xia Sha’s tone. He tilted his head and shook his head in slow motion. After complimenting for a short time, he mumbles, “No, No, I don’t think so.”

And,

Ji Cun Xi was right. Guan Xian said he wanted to visit Xiao Ni before he went back to the office. That is the excuse Guan Xian told to make Xia Sha unaware of his sudden visit to the Shen Residence. With a bouquet of Shen Xia Fei’s favorite white lilies, he received a warm greeting from his future mother-in-law.

“Mom! How are you? You look more beautiful every time we met!”

Guan Xian’s natural honeyed words instantly spread smiles across Shen Xia Fei’s face. She looked at the beautiful flower in her arms before she shook her head at Guan Xian.

“You and your sweet mouth. So what is it? Why do you come in the middle of the day?” Shen Xia Fei asked, even though she had seen through that meaningful smile on Guan Xian’s face.

Guan Xian grinned and followed Shen Xia Fei inside the house as he answered with a hidden blush on his cheek.

“Well, Xia Sha finally agreed, and I felt like you are the first person that should know about this,” Guan Xian pressed his lips into a hard line to conceal his smiles, but he failed to do so.

Shen Xia Fei elegantly covers her mouth and lets out a snigger. She nods her head knowingly, “That’s great news! Mom is happy for both of you.”

“But you did not look surprised,” Guan Xian immediately implied after he observed Shen Xia Fei’s calm and composed gesture. He knew his mother-in-law was elegant and won’t jump out of excitement like his Queen, Guan Qian Si. But he expected a surprise expression from Shen Xia Fei.

Shen Xia Fei smiled at and raised her eyebrow as if she about to reveal a secret, naturally make Guan Xian curious.

“Actually-” Shen Xia Fei’s used a high tone before she stopped and hissed.

“Nevermind, I won’t tell you right now. Instead of talking about me, what about your marriage preparation with Xia Sha. Do you need help?”

Guan Xian felt a ride of emotion, but Shen Xia Fei had diverted his attention instantly. He squared his shoulder and cleared his throat, “Well, I come here to ask you something. It might be offensive, and I understand if you don’t want to answer or disagreeing with me.”

Shen Xia Fei was stunned for a few seconds, but then she nods her head.

“Ask anyway.”

“Well, I believe marriage is a commitment, and my goal is to never divorce in this lifetime.”

Guan Xian hasn’t finished his sentence when Shen Xia Fei suddenly laughs. She patted Guan Xian’s shoulder and gently stood up from her seat.

“Wait for me here. I have something to give you,” Shen Xia Fei said before she excuses herself to one of the rooms in the house.

Guan Xian waits for a short time before Shen Xia Fei comeback with a journal in her hand. It had a red maroon hardcover that felt soft when it moves to Guan Xian’s hand.

“I understand your worries. Xia Sha can be difficult sometimes. And I think you already knew that every key to a successful relationship is communication. That is what I lack with my ex-husband, Xia Sha’s father.”

Shen Xia Fei took a deep breath as she closed her eyes gently.

“If you asked me, did I ever regrets divorcing my husband? The answer is yes. That book is the evidence.”

Guan Xian opens the first pages of the journal, and he immediately notices the dried wrinkled paper. He was stunned before he closed the cover again.

“Now, before you said the journal is too personal, I need you to look at the last pages of the book,” Shen Xia Fei said without looking at Guan Xian.

Shen Xia Fei knew Guan Xian would refuse to take the book. So, she had prepared something for him on the very last page.

Guan Xian followed her order and took a look at the last piece of the paper. There he found ten points of something Shen Xia Fei called, Ten things to do before divorce. Guan Xian felt choked when he read the words on the corner of the pages.

To the future husband of my beautiful daughter, thank you.

“I knew my marriage with Xia Qi Feng had left a deep trauma for Xia Sha. I wasn’t surprised if Xia Sha said she never wants to marry or have a child. So I was surprised when she suddenly comes to me one day and asked me questions about marriage.”

Shen Xia Fei opens her eyelids and looked at Guan Xian with a faint smile on her face.

“It would be hard. But it’s not impossible. As long as the two of you love each other and willing to fight, compromise and fix things- I promise you two a together forever.”

Guan Xian headed back with a piece of paper neatly folded in his pocket. He could not describe how precious the letter means to him as he placed it on a safe. He spends the whole night reading and memorized the list before he comes up with an idea.

Guan Xian took his phone and decided to send a message to Xia Sha.

Guan Xian: You haven’t back out, right?

Guan Xian: You promised me a marriage tomorrow!

Guan Xian knew very well that Xia Sha hasn’t fallen asleep right now. She probably is working overtime to catch up with the company’s condition. It took a while for Xia Sha to answers.

Xia Sha: Hm, maybe I do? or not.

Xia Sha: I told you, It would depend on my moods tomorrow.

Xia Sha: Why?

Guan Xian: Do you think we need to sign up for the premarital agreement?

Xia Sha: Sure, I’ll make an appointment with my lawyer.

Guan Xian: Great!

Guan Xian: Oh, by the way, Don’t work too late! My bride needs to take care of her health!!

Xia Sha felt butterflies on her stomach when she heard Guan Xian’s voice calling her my bride in her ears. She knew she is delusional when she sees the silly smiles at her tabs reflection. She shook her head and tried to focus on the matters she needs to figure out.

What should she do to Wen Rou, Pang Ze Tian, Meng Ran?

The truth is, Xia Sha did not send Wen Rou to Wang Kai’s so-called dungeon. She makes Wen Rou go through mental health checkups in the asylum and hopes she could recuperate there. Wen Du Jiao looks like he just lost his soul after hearing his daughter. Xia Sha asked him to take care of Pang Ze Tian in the hospital. He needs to be her servant until Pang Ze Tian regains her visions.

Wen Du Jiao did not show any objection. He loyally stayed with Pang Ze Tian and Xia Xiang and took care of them. Pang Ze Tian’s cornea could be sewn, and her vision should come back afterwards.

But what should Xia Sha do to Pang Ze Tian after she woke up?
