Chapter 350: Chapter 350: Who exactly is on the mind?_1
Zhang Xian didn’t know that he had made Mo Shaoyun upset again. As for him, since Mo Shaoyun wouldn’t co over anymore, the investnt he received from before should be returned. It wouldn’t be fair to take advantage of others.
With these words, he went off towards the mountain.
After a few months of absence, he wanted to see how Lingxiao Mountain Villa had changed.
Xiao Nan saw Mo Shaoyun’s expression change and sighed in her heart.
She didn’t know what Zhang Xian was thinking, but Mo Shaoyun’s feelings for Zhang Xian seed to deepen instead of fade. However, she didn’t want to accept the fact that other won existed in his life, so she was stuck here.
Weirdly enough, Zhang Xian saying he’s going to pay back the money probably made Mo Shaoyun uncomfortable. Now, Mo Shaoyun had regarded Zhang Xian as a close one.
"What is happening now?"
Duan Hong’s mood was not any better. Even though she never dread of taking sothing from others, she felt caught in a whirlpool of troubles because of the issues between Zhang Xian and the other won.
"Let’s go up!" Xiao Nan gave Mo Shaoyun a push.
Mo Shaoyun frowned and asked, "Sister Nan, do you think we should pull out our investnt?"
"Why?" Xiao Nan asked, surprised.
Mo Shaoyun responded, "No real reason, I just feel like pulling out."
"I’d advise against that." Xiao Nan knew why Mo Shaoyun suddenly wanted to withdraw her investnt. She was probably hurt by Zhang Xian’s words and felt that she didn’t hold any place in his heart.
This girl would rather endure suffering herself than lose face??, it’s a matter of pride.
"Why wouldn’t you recomnd it?" Mo Shaoyun asked.
Xiao Nan questioned, "Do you think you can escape from this vortex? You just ca back, do you want to leave again and go back to the way things were before?"
"I..." Mo Shaoyun fell into thought.
Xiao Nan suggested, "How about staying here and focusing only on work, leaving your feelings out of it?"
"I’ll try..."
After taking a few deep breaths to calm herself, Mo Shaoyun regained her usual composure and started walking up the mountain.
"Sigh..."
Zhu Qing, trailing at the back, found the situation awkward as she watched Mo Shaoyun and Xiao Nan whispering to each other.
At the end of last year, she left angrily with Mo Shaoyun. Now, although Mo Shaoyun ca back due to her relationship with Zhang Xian, she also had a reason related to Lingxiao Mountain Villa.
As for her? It seed like she had no reason at all. She left on her own and ca back on her own.
"Sister Qingqing, what’s wrong?"
Dong Qian noticed Zhu Qing trailing behind them with a worried expression. She quickly ran over and asked, "We haven’t seen each other for months, we’re all finally together today, why do you seem unhappy?"
"I... I’m okay." Zhu Qing shook her head.
Dong Qian pouted, "We’re all here together, you should enjoy it!"
Zhu Qing nodded, forcing a smile.
Zhang Xian was in the front, seemingly surveying the buildings. But, in reality, he was also keeping an eye on Mo Shaoyun and Zhu Qing.
Seeing that both the won were unhappy to differing degrees, confusion stirred in his heart again. Initially, he chose to stop courting the won after realizing it wasn’t suitable. He thought ti would change the situation and didn’t want to hurt Mo Shaoyun and Zhu Qing. Months flew by, and nothing changed for Mo Shaoyun and Dong Qian – his heart started to get restless again.
These two girls caused so fuss, but there was no doubt that their feelings for him were real.
Given the situation, what should he do? Should he push forward or maintain the status quo? Despite changing his mind many tis, he still hadn’t established a clear goal.
As a Cultivator, he should do as he pleased. And, that’s what he has been trying to do. But when he tried to act on it, he found it’s not so easy to follow your heart in everything.
"Brother Xian, ladies."
Suddenly, Wu Dajun and Buckteeth Zhou ca running over.
Zhang Xian smiled, "Ah, Buckteeth, Dajun, long ti no see."
"Hehe... yeah, it’s been a while."
Buckteeth Zhou rubbed the back of his head and smiled, saying, "Brother Xian, ladies, let
show you around. Lingxiao Mountain Villa is almost finished now."
"Hmm, you guys have worked hard during this period." Zhang Xian nodded in appreciation.
Buckteeth Zhou and Wu Dajun shook their heads in dismissal, "No, it’s not hard. What’s the point of us if Brother Xian has to do everything himself?"
Zhang Xian laughed and began touring around the interior of Lingxiao Mountain Villa with Buckteeth Zhou and Wu Dajun. He felt quite satisfied.
Since he had made a major revision the last ti due to the extravagant style, the Mountain Villa now looked much more simplistic, giving off a completely different vibe.
Buckteeth Zhou smiled, looking at Zhang Xian and asked, "Brother Xian, what do you think?"
"Hmm, it’s excellent."
Zhang Xian nodded, then turned to Mo Shaoyun and asked, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, what’s your opinion? Is there anything that needs altering?"
"You’re the boss. What you say goes. I’m just in charge of managing things for you." Mo Shaoyun replied.
Zhang Xian rubbed his nose and looked at Fu iting, asking, "Elder Sister iting, what do you think? Your achievents in business are not insignificant, do you have any suggestions?"
After laughing, Fu iting asked: "Are you planning to build a concrete road?"
Buckteeth Zhou said: "Yes, but we haven’t started yet. This is the last project. It can be done quickly in just a few days. Once the final touches are done, we’ll start building the road."
"In my opinion, one thing should be changed, A vehicle should not be allowed to enter Lingxiao Villa."
Fu iting hesitated for a mont, then said, "Since it is ant for health preservation, it’s not too much to consider so physical exercise. Maybe you shouldn’t build a concrete road. Paving it with cobblestones might be more natural. The crisscrossed stone paths in the woods, stepping on them would create a rustling sound, it should provide a different feel. However, I’m not sure if there would be any adverse effects."
Wu Dajun said: "Sister-in-law, it’s fine. As long as the sides are blocked, and a layer of sand is spread inside, the cobblestones won’t run around."
"Hmm, if it can be done that way, it’s good." Fu iting turned her head to Zhang Xian and asked, "What do you think? You’re the boss, it’s up to you to make the final decision."
Zhang Xian laughed and said, "Hmm, very good, let’s do it your way."
Mo Shaoyun was sowhat upset at Fu iting’s suggestion. However, she thought the suggestion was quite good and decided not to argue. She knew that Fu iting was not to be underestimated.
...
After going around Lingxiao Villa and making so minor adjustnts, it was already noon.
Zhang Xian knew that the won should be hungry by now, so he didn’t delay any further. He took Mo Shaoyun, Zhu Qing, Dong Qian, Xiao Nan, Fu iting, and Duan Hong to a restaurant at the bottom of the mountain and found private room.
One man and seven won, it was indeed an eyebrow-raising grouping, reminiscent of a modern harem drama.
It’s fortunate that they were in a private room, otherwise they would certainly attract attention. On their way there, they had attracted many stares.
The saying goes that won in love tend to lean towards romantic fantasies. Mo Shaoyun was no exception. The present her wasn’t as cautious as she used to be, she acted on instinct.
After a small reminder from Xiao Nan, she remained silent. Sitting in the private room, she had no intention of speaking. It was as if she was the only one there.
Zhu Qing was in a bad mood and didn’t talk either.
Maybe because the atmosphere was off or sothing else, even Duan Hong and Fu iting remained unusually quiet.
Only Dong Qian seed normal. She looked left and right and asked, "Are you all planning to stay silent all day? Wouldn’t that be boring?"
"Cough cough..."
Zhang Xian coughed a few tis and asked with a smile, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, Sister Nan, Qingqing, how have you been these days?"
Xiao Nan smiled and said, "Hmm, pretty okay!"
Mo Shaoyun raised her head, saw Zhang Xian looking at her, and nodded in acknowledgnt.
Zhu Qing did not respond, instead, she kept her head down, lost in thoughts. She barely said anything in the morning, appearing disoriented as if lost in so trance.
"Hey, I’m asking you sothing!" Zhang Xian felt a bit upset when Zhu Qing ignored him.
He had always been observing Zhu Qing and Mo Shaoyun, trying to find a reason to make a decision for himself. Whether to move forward or retreat, he had to make a choice between the two.
Zhu Qing’s listless look further clarified his thoughts. Their lancholy made him wondering whether he should continue to push forward.
After nearly three months, Zhu Qing and Mo Shaoyun looked the sa when they t again today. It seed that ti could not solve the problem.
"Huh..." Zhu Qing finally responded, asking, "What’s up?"
Zhang Xian slapped his forehead and asked again, "I just asked you how you’ve been, why aren’t you answering ? You’re hurting
by ignoring ."
"I...I didn’t hear it." Zhu Qing replied, looking embarrassed.
Zhang Xian rubbed his nose and asked, "What were you thinking about? Were you thinking about ?"
"Hmmm..." Zhu Qing nodded
Realizing that she misspoke, she quickly corrected herself, "Ah, what...what nonsense are you talking about? I...I wasn’t thinking about you!"
"Weren’t you thinking about ?"
Zhang Xian gave a bitter smile and said, "Ah, despite that I’ve been constantly thinking about you, night and day. I aid my affection at the bright moon, but it simply reflects on the ditch."
"Stop bluffing ." Zhu Qing did not believe him.
For several months, Zhang Xian didn’t call even once. And yet he dares to say he’s been thinking about her? Wasn’t this just fooling her?
Dong Qian looked at Zhang Xian and then said to Zhu Qing, "Sister Qingqing, Brother Zhang Xian was indeed thinking about you! It’s just that you didn’t know about it, I often saw him spacing out at night."
Zhu Qing scoffed, "Does spacing out an he’s thinking about soone?"
Dong Qian replied, "Then why do you think Brother Zhang Xian was spacing out? Besides worrying about you guys, I really can’t think of any other reason."
Duan Hong chid in: "Hmm, this I can attest to. There have been many tis when I also saw Zhang Xian lost in thought and sighing. Except for you guys, I haven’t seen anything else bothering him."
Zhang Xian was sowhat surprised. How did these two know that he was spacing out?
During the ti in Sunset Town, he did indeed think about Mo Shaoyun and others at night, but he didn’t want others to know, so he only did it after Dong Qian and the others went to bed.
He didn’t expect that what he always thought was a well-kept secret had been actually discovered long ago. He was so engrossed in his thoughts back then that he didn’t even notice whether the won behind him were really asleep or not.
Dong Qian glanced at Zhang Xian and looked down.
Mo Shaoyun, next to them, furrowed her brows. Was Zhang Xian thinking about Zhu Qing or her and Zhu Qing? It seed like there wasn’t a clear answer yet.
