Chapter 351: Chapter 351: Zhang Xian, Kill This Demon_1

"See! I have a witness."

Zhang Xian gave a chuckle, saying, "Actually, I’ve been thinking about you all the time."

Upon hearing Zhang Xian say ’you all’, Mo Shaoyun was relieved and her furrowed brows relaxed.

Zhu Qing scoffed and asked, "Then why didn’t you call us? Three months without any news, is this your way of thinking about us? Do you think we are so easily deceived?"

"About this..."

Zhang Xian said, "Not calling is not because I didn’t want to, but because I didn’t know what you guys were thinking. If what you guys thought was different from what I thought, wouldn’t me calling only add to the trouble?"

Zhu Qing was somewhat unsure what Zhang Xian meant, "What do you mean, exactly?"

Zhang Xian explained, "When you and Elder Sister Shaoyun left in anger the last time, it seemed to me you couldn’t accept the situation at the time. All along, I didn’t think what I was doing was right, it was unfair to you, but that’s how people are, incapable of changing or preventing it. Suppose you wanted to cut off your feelings at the time. In that case, isn’t it trouble if I call?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing was taken aback.

What does he mean? Does it mean they won’t search for them if they don’t come?

Mo Shaoyun’s eyebrows furrowed again; a look of surprise flashed on her face.

From what Zhang Xian just said, their departure meant that everything was over. If they don’t come, Zhang Xian will never go find them.

She didn’t quite understand whether she and Zhu Qing were not worth Zhang Xian’s lingering thoughts?

If that was the case, she could only say that she and Zhu Qing had been a joke all along.

"Hey, why are you guys talking about this?" Seeing the atmosphere getting tense, Dong Qian hurriedly said, "We’ve finally gathered together, can we not fight? Don’t you feel that the days when we were together were very happy? We have so many beautiful memories, why do you guys have to bring up these sad things when you’re free?"

Duan Hong smiled and said, "Yes, gathering together is fate. What happened in the past has passed. We are still good friends."

Zhu Qing and Mo Shaoyun looked at each other, did not speak again, their faces extraordinarily ugly.

They didn’t expect their status in Zhang Xian’s heart to be so insignificant, easily giving up so they will simply lose their temper. Zhang Xian just directly excluded them.

"I need to go to the restroom, Zhang Xian, can you walk me there?" Xiao Nan suddenly stood up.

Zhang Xian looked at Xiao Nan, stood up, and walked outside.

Once outside, Xiao Nan asked, "Zhang Xian, what do you mean? Does Shaoyun not take up any space in your heart?"

Zhang Xian was confused, "When did I ever say there was no space for Elder Sister Shaoyun in my heart? Maybe I thought so in the past, but now I think she’s quite good. Why would there be no space for her?"

Xiao Nan stated, "Didn’t you imply that? If they leave, you had no intent to reason, do they not carry weight in your heart?"

"Sister Nan, I think you misunderstood me."

Zhang Xian explained, "I didn’t look for them not because I could easily cut them off, but because they couldn’t accept me having many confidantes. Why should I disturb them? According to your logic, even though I know they won’t accept, I should shamelessly harass them. Then if they haven’t forgotten, but they didn’t want to compromise, should we just continue to drag on like this?"

"My original thought was since they can’t accept it, I should give them some time. Maybe they will find their true love in the future?"

"Alright! So I misunderstood."

Xiao Nan said, "But the way you said it just now, it really hurt Shaoyun and Qingqing. They will think they are insignificant and dispensable."

"I will go and explain it."

Zhang Xian chuckled and asked, "Do you still want to go to the restroom? I can accompany you there."

"Um..."

Xiao Nan looked at Zhang Xian and said, "I just wanted to call you out to talk, I didn’t really want to go."

When Zhang Xian noticed Xiao Nan was about to return to the private room, he quickly pulled her back, laughing, "Sister Nan, originally I thought Elder Sister Shaoyun and Qingqing would gradually forget about our issues over time. But now it seems that this isn’t possible. What do you think about me trying again and seeing if they can accept me as I am now? It’s really not good to keep dragging on like this."

Xiao Nan asked, "Is this what you want to do?"

Zhang Xian said, "Of course I want to, I’m just afraid I won’t be able to handle them."

Xiao Nan said, "Shaoyun has deep feelings for you, you should try hard, I don’t think it should be a problem. As for Qingqing, she didn’t seem to be that repellent before, she was mainly bothered by the many women you brought back. If I must say, the matter of you having multiple confidantes is set in stone and can’t be changed, so don’t care about it. But you should better know when to stop, don’t cause any more trouble."

"I will try my best."

Zhang Xian grabbed Xiao Nan’s hand and chuckled, "Sister Nan, then I will act according to your wishes."

"Ah..."

Xiao Nan frowned and asked, "You go ahead, why are you holding my hand?"

"Since we’re continuing, you’re also within my target range!" Zhang Xian said, "You’re Elder Sister Shaoyun’s best friend, how can I separate you two?"

Xiao Nan was stunned for a moment, then said, "You haven’t solved Shaoyun’s problem yet, let’s talk about this after you have."

"Shouldn’t that be no problem at all? Since you say that Elder Sister Shaoyun has deep feelings for me, now, my confidence is skyrocketing!"

Zhang Xian raised his eyebrows and lewdly said, "Since it’s a done deal, shouldn’t we sneak around and do something? Don’t you think this is very exciting and interesting?"

"Start an affair..."

Xiao Nan looked exasperated, "Only you would think of this."

"Come on! Let us start our secret affair!"

"Scram..."

Xiao Nan glared at Zhang Xian once, then turned and walked into the private room.

Zhang Xian rubbed his nose. After getting his emotions in check, he followed her into the private room. His lewd grin instantly disappeared the moment he stepped through the door - his speed at changing faces was truly amazing.

Noticing all eyes were on him, including two particularly resentful ones, he chuckled, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, Qingqing, why are you staring at me?"

Mo Shaoyun and Zhu Qing turned their heads away, refusing to engage.

If it wouldn’t have been improper to just leave there and then, they wouldn’t be bothered to stay. They felt unimportant, thus their presence here seemed meaningless.

"Ahem..."

Zhang Xian sat down at the table and said with a smile, "Why keep staring at me, elder brother, instead of eating?"

Dong Qian, Duan Hong, and Fu Meiting chuckled and started eating with their chopsticks.

Unable to hold back any longer, Mo Shaoyun abruptly stood up and stated, "I seem to remember that I have some unfinished work to do. I will not eat now, you all enjoy."

"Elder Sister Shaoyun, I’ll go with you." Zhu Qing also stood up to follow Shaoyun.

After giving a sighing glance to Zhang Xian, Xiao Nan reluctantly rose and followed Mo Shaoyun and Dong Qian out of the box. Initially, she had hoped that Zhang Xian would explain, but now that opportunity was lost.

"Hey..."

Zhang Xian wanted to call out and stop Mo Shaoyun and Zhu Qing.

But the women disappeared without a hitch. He wanted to chase them, but in the end, he didn’t follow them.

Now that Xiao Nan agreed to help, she should clarify a bit. Once Xiao Nan had explained, he would follow up, which might yield better results.

As for Mo Shaoyun and Zhu Qing, as long as he could handle the former, the latter would not be a problem.

...

That night was clear, filled with a moonlit starry sky.

In Tiandu City, within the Bishui Villa, on the lawn in front of the villa.

Xie Wuming stood in the middle of the lawn with his hands behind his back, staring at the Lijiang River not far away, utterly captivated.

"Whoosh..."

A shadow suddenly shot out from one direction and said, "Boss, Zhang Xian has returned."

Xie Wuming was slightly stunned, then laughed, "Haha, that guy is indeed back in time. The construction work at Panlong Mountain is almost complete, and he has returned."

"Should we inform Old Man Hei and Cao Ge?" the shadow asked.

Xie Wuming responded, "Yes, notify them. We are ready to launch our plan to seize Zhang Xian’s accomplishments."

...

That same night, in Tiandu City, at Dong Qian’s villa, on the second floor balcony.

After dinner, Zhang Xian rested his hands on the railing, quietly gazing at the sky. His dark, deep eyes evoked myriad emotions, resembling an ancient, bottomless well.

"What are you thinking about?"

Duan Hong suddenly stepped out, wearing a seductive red silk nightgown.

"What could I be thinking about?"

Zhang Xian replied, "I planned on explaining things to Mo Shaoyun and Zhu Qing today. But they seemed angry, refusing to give me a chance."

Duan Hong asked, "What sort of explanation?"

Zhang Xian answered, "Isn’t it because I didn’t go looking for them? They misunderstand, they think they mean nothing to me."

Duan Hong gave a slight laugh and said, "This might be a tricky situation to explain."

"Isn’t it?"

Zhang Xian said gloomily, "These situations require an opportune moment, it’s not appropriate to just blurt it out. Especially with Mo Shaoyun. I wouldn’t dare confront her directly. You must know that Mo Shaoyun, although straightforward, is very sensitive. If I go straight up to her, it’ll surely backfire. I need a proper plan for this. This is going to take a lot of time!"

Duan Hong smiled, "Do you need my help?"

Zhang Xian asked with surprise, "You’ll help me? Are you certain? And can you actually help?"

Duan Hong said, "I guess I can give it a try! But I cannot guarantee success. I can only say, I will try my best."

"Heh heh..." Zhang Xian drew Duan Hong into his arms and chuckled, "Elder Sister Hong, I love you so much."

Duan Hong smiled enchantingly.

Looking at her inviting lips, Zhang Xian couldn’t help but bend down for a kiss.

"Ahem..." the sound of coughing suddenly echoed.

Fu Meiting stood against the wall with her arms crossed, a grin on her face, "Though it’s late, there’s no need to get so thirsty right away. Getting it on in the open, are we?"

"Um..."

An awkward smile twitched at the corners of Zhang Xian’s mouth as he protested, "Meiting, don’t you realize this is really inappropriate?"

Fu Meiting chuckled, "I know, but I love this feeling."

Duan Hong grimaced and gritted her teeth, "Zhang Xian, take down this vixen, she’s crossed the line."

Zhang Xian grinned wickedly and pounced.

"Ah..."

Fu Meiting got a fright and immediately turned to flee, "What are you going to do, Zhang Xian?"
