Wang Li nearly t her maker.
She didn’t feel like texting any longer; Wang Li sent a few voice ssages to express her gritted teeth!
"Thanks to you, I’m still here."
"When did you get divorced?"
"Who on earth was the man you married? Tell ! No lying or hiding it from !"
"Or I’ll secretly execute you!"
Qiao Xi didn’t dare to open Wang Li’s voice ssages.
She stole a glance at Shen Dang, only to find him looking right at her phone.
Feeling guilty, Qiao Xi tried to hide her phone, but she ended up accidentally playing the second voice ssage.
In a fluster, Qiao Xi quickly shut off the voice ssage, but Wang Li’s words still echoed through the car.
Everyone who should have heard, heard.
Shen Dang squinted with a mockingly playful look, "Teacher Qiao, what are you sneakily hiding?"
He couldn’t see the words on her phone screen from this angle.
A nervous flutter hit Qiao Xi’s chest, but she steadied herself and smiled coolly and elegantly, "Not at all, you must be mistaken."
Shen Dang curved his lips into a smile, "Are you treating as blind or deaf?"
Qiao Xi looked up at him, smiling slightly, "Well... why wouldn’t I?"
Shen Dang: "..."
Quite the sarcastic banter.
Compared to Qiao Xi’s feigned composure, Boss Shen was truly at ease, "Did you tell your agent about our divorce?"
"She seems rather angry about it."
After saying so, Shen Dang lazily chuckled as if he was enjoying the drama from afar.
Qiao Xi hadn’t expected him to guess so quickly.
What a sly dog!
"I did," Qiao Xi paused, "But she doesn’t know yet that it was you who divorced ."
"Hmm."
Shen Dang humd and went silent.
Qiao Xi indeed didn’t want to say it before, but now she had no choice, for the sake of her career!
Qiao Xi made up her mind and sent out a two-character text.
Seeing the two characters on the screen, Wang Li couldn’t believe her eyes and rubbed them.
—Shen Dang?
Was she going blind?
Wang Li pulled her phone closer.
Indeed, the harsh reality confird she was not blind.
She resisted the urge to call Qiao Xi.
This Shen Dang was the one from IDC Capital and GK Entertainnt, right?
Surely it couldn’t just be a coincidence of nas?
Taking a deep breath, Wang Li suppressed the shock and restlessness at the bottom of her heart.
[Wang Li: Is it the Shen Dang I’m thinking of?!]
Qiao Xi was already unfazed: [Yes, there shouldn’t be a second Shen Dang in Hai City.]
Not bad, not bad at all!
Qiao Xi, that audacious girl, managed to keep her in the dark, all the while performing a play in front of her?
With rapid fingertips, Wang Li typed a mocking laugh: [Since it’s that President Shen, why didn’t you say so earlier? With a husband of that status, what’s there to worry about in the entertainnt industry? Why not deal with Le Entertainnt directly? My dear lady, what on earth were you thinking?]
To have such a husband and not make good use of him, and instead beg for survival under Le Entertainnt?
Ridiculous!
Qiao Xi knew Wang Li would think like that.
That’s human nature, after all.
But in this circle, she had never thought to use Shen Dang as her protector.
They weren’t that close.
[Qiao Xi: It’s over, we’re divorced now.]
Wang Li felt as if she had been struck: [So why did you divorce President Shen? Huh? Why?!]
Wasn’t clenching to such a powerful figure a good thing?
[Qiao Xi: We were married by agreent, Sister Li, I’m telling you this to give you a heads up. If it blows up, you can handle the PR then, kisses, love you.]
Wang Li really wanted to drag Qiao Xi out for a beating.
She hadn’t recovered from the shock that the man was Boss Shen, and then she was told about the divorce.
It was more thrilling than a rollercoaster.
The phone vibrated.
Qiao Xi looked at the ssage and chuckled.
[Wang Li: Does Bei Bei know about this? How about everyone else?]
Sister Li still rembered this.
Unable to help herself, Qiao Xi laughed.
[Qiao Xi: Don’t worry, after the divorce, you’re the first person I’m telling. No one else knows yet.]
[Qiao Xi: I’ll call you later to talk more.]
...
Shen Dang and Qiao Xi arrived at the Shen Family, acting like a loving couple in front of the elders, as if nothing had happened.
No one could guess that their divorce certificate was still warm.
Qiao Xi couldn’t help but admire Boss Shen’s acting skills.
Ran Jing, as if she hadn’t seen Shen Dang, affectionately grabbed Qiao Xi’s hand, "How co you seem slimr?"
Concern shone in Ran Jing’s expression.
Before Qiao Xi could speak, she heard Old Master Shen scold Shen Dang, "You darned kid, have you not been taking good care of your wife?"
Shen Dang: "..."
Yep, it was all his fault.
"No, Grandpa." Qiao Xi quickly explained softly, "I’m joining a drama crew soon, so I need to keep in shape; otherwise, I won’t look good on cara."
Old Master Shen’s face eased a bit, but he was still discontented, "Being a star is so difficult; why don’t you just be Mrs. Shen? You could give Grandpa a great-grandchild sooner."
Old Master Shen wasn’t against Qiao Xi being a star; he just felt sorry for her.
Whenever the older generation was present, the sensitive topic of having children inevitably arose.
Qiao Xi sneaked a peek at Shen Dang.
Speak up!
Catching her plea for help, Shen Dang narrowed his eyes and said to Old Master Shen, "Grandpa, why bring this up again? If you keep this up, I really won’t bring Xixi here in the future. Every visit can’t avoid the topic of children. Do you not want to see or Xixi? Always thinking about great-grandchildren."
"I didn’t an..."
Shen Dang spoke unhurriedly, "It’s no use talking to Xixi about this; right now, I’m the one who doesn’t want kids. Don’t worry about not holding a great-grandchild; there will be a chance."
"Exactly, Dad; they’ll figure it out themselves; we shouldn’t interfere. Co on, Xixi, let’s have so fruit."
Ran Jing knew further discussion was futile; she led Qiao Xi aside to sit.
Qiao Xi smiled, "Okay."
Shen Dang loosened his collar, "Where’s Grandma?"
"Your grandma’s resting upstairs."
Ran Jing gave him a aningful look.
"Then I’ll go check on her. Xixi, stay down here and chat with Grandpa and the folks."
Qiao Xi nodded to him, "Okay."
Truth be told, she didn’t want to face the Old Madam.
The Old Madam could get violent when not lucid and glared at her with resentnt when clear-headed.
She couldn’t afford to quarrel with an elder.
Why invite displeasure?
Before heading upstairs, Shen Dang laughed languidly, "Grandpa, stop bringing up the children, okay?"
Old Master Shen bristled, "What kind of person do you take for!"
In the end, he sighed, "Xixi, Grandpa doesn’t only think about great-grandchildren; don’t listen to that damned boy’s nonsense."
Qiao Xi smiled sweetly, "I know, Grandpa."
Old Madam’s face brightened with a smile at the sight of Shen Dang.
After caring for Shen Dang briefly, Old Madam’s expression suddenly changed, "Ah Dang, have you divorced that Qiao Xi?"
