It was just a normal question, but Qiao Xi felt her heart suddenly beating vigorously.
How strange, why was her heart beating so fast?
Clutching her knees, Qiao Xi’s feather-like lashes trembled slightly as she replied nonchalantly, "I’m looking at the script."
"Teacher Qiao is really diligent."
She wasn’t sure whether he was complinting her or being sarcastic.
Qiao Xi asked, "Do you need sothing?"
Shen Dang chuckled, "I’m heading back to the Shen Family soon, does my girlfriend want to co along?"
It was quiet on his end, and Qiao Xi heard the sound of a door closing followed by his steady footsteps.
Qiao Xi hadn’t thought about eting his family so soon as Shen Dang’s girlfriend.
Even though she had already t his parents before.
But having just confird their relationship, was it not too soon to et the family?
No way!
"You go ahead." That was what she thought, and that was how she refused: "I won’t be coming."
Shen Dang seed to have anticipated her refusal and didn’t force her, only saying, "I won’t be able to cook for you tonight then."
Qiao Xi didn’t mind, her tone indifferent as she nodded, "I’ll order takeout, or make sothing myself."
Before Shen Dang beca her boyfriend, she had managed on her own perfectly fine.
There were no issues at all.
"No need to order outside, I’ve already had soone pack dinner for you from Tan Garden."
While making this call to Qiao Xi, Shen Dang had already instructed Assistant Gao.
You can’t neglect the girlfriend after all.
"Ah." Qiao Xi was taken aback, her voice growing lighter, "Isn’t that too much trouble?"
People had to make reservations and queue up to dine at Tan Garden, and here she was, getting takeout delivered. Others would be green with envy if they found out.
"You’re my girlfriend, what’s troubleso about that?" he paused, "If you’re worried about trouble, co back with to the Shen Family, I’ll pick you up, hmm?"
His tone was lazy and enticing.
He sounded like the big bad wolf trying to lure Little Red Riding Hood away with less than pure intentions.
Shen Dang truly wanted to whisk her back ho.
A boyfriend who didn’t want to bring his girlfriend ho wasn’t a good boyfriend.
Qiao Xi bowed her head slightly, resolute: "No."
She just heard Boss Shen click his tongue, "Then just wait for the assistant to pack it for you. Make sure to eat a good dinner."
What more could she say?
Qiao Xi softly replied, "Mm."
Qiao Xi heard a "ding" sound, she said, "You better focus on driving."
"Alright, see you later."
See you later?
Qiao Xi was montarily stunned, but Shen Dang had already hung up.
It wasn’t long before Qiao Xi heard the doorbell outside.
She opened the door, and Assistant Gao stood there with a smile, handing over the packed box, "Madam, President Shen instructed to pack this loving dinner for you."
Qiao Xi: "..."
Loving dinner?
Qiao Xi’s expression was sowhat indescribable.
She awkwardly looked at Assistant Gao, "... you ca up with ’loving dinner’ yourself, right?"
The high-and-mighty Boss Shen certainly wouldn’t say sothing like that.
Assistant Gao chuckled, "It’s all the sa, all the sa, then Madam, please enjoy your al, I’ll be leaving now."
Qiao Xi nodded, "Thanks for the trouble."
Qiao Xi went to the dining room and opened the packed box, which had several layers inside consisting of three at dishes, one vegetable dish, and even a soup that was still warm.
The dishes from Tan Garden were not only exquisitely made but also tasted excellent, it was even too much for her to eat alone.
Before eating, Qiao Xi took a picture.
She usually disliked posting her private life on Weibo, rarely did it, but tonight on a whim, she posted the dinner photo on Weibo and added the caption: [Qiao Xi V: Everyone be sure to eat well.]
[Listen to the wife.]
[This dish looks delicious!]
[Forget the dish, I want to see the person, begging Fairy Sister to appear!]
[I thought fairies didn’t partake in worldly food.]
Qiao Xi replied to this comnt: [No, fairies also eat takeout.]
Qiao Xi’s sudden interaction nearly exploded her fans.
[Ah! Caught a Fairy Sister!]
[Ha ha ha, goddess being a bit down to earth there.]
[My Sister Xi!]
[Sister Xi look at ah!]
[I really want to eat with my wife, sob sob sob...]
After browsing the comnts for a while, Qiao Xi put down her phone and focused on her al.
She didn’t notice a few replies below—
[Sorry, you guys don’t match; this al is beyond your reach.]
[????]
[What kind of al that we can’t afford?]
[Tan Garden, just Baidu it yourself.]
...
After having dinner at the Shen Family, Shen Dang left.
He didn’t stay for even a minute longer.
The maids, probably under Old Madam’s instructions, told Shen Dang that the Old Madam wanted to see him.
But Shen Dang didn’t visit her and directly left the Shen Family.
Leaving the Shen Family, he didn’t head ho but instead detoured to Sheng Birch Mansion.
His phone vibrated.
He pulled out the phone to see, it was a ssage from Tang Honghe.
[Tang Honghe: [Picture]]
Shen Dang opened the picture.
He recognized the dishes from Tan Garden.
He sent a voice ssage over, his tone rebellious, "Tsk, what are you doing doggedly following my girlfriend’s Weibo?"
[Tang Honghe: ...]
[Tang Honghe: You’ve lost your mind! I used to pass on ssages this way before, why didn’t you complain then?]
[Tang Honghe: You were quite happy about it before.]
[Tang Honghe: Oh, just because she has now beco your girlfriend, I’m not allowed to look at her Weibo, right?]
This clearly showed Tang Honghe’s imnse dissatisfaction.
And it wasn’t just him watching Qiao Xi’s Weibo.
Qiao Xi had millions of followers on Weibo.
Could Brother Dang control them?
Shen Dang scoffed in annoyance, "You really love gossip."
[Tang Honghe: It’s by gossiping that I’ve survived this long.]
Those words were just cheeky.
Shen Dang snorted, his voice casual, "I heard Jiashu broke up, go gossip about that."
Tang Honghe instantly replied with a voice ssage, expressing great surprise, "What? They broke up? Is that true? Brother Dang, why do you have better information than ? That shouldn’t be the case." He was supposed to be the king of gossip!
Shen Dang was almost disgusted by him, holding back the impulse to block him.
In a matter-of-fact tone, he continued, "Yes, they broke up."
After saying that, he tossed the phone onto the adjacent seat and drove towards Qiao Xi’s place.
Shen Dang directly arrived upstairs.
Qiao Xi, seeing him in person, was montarily stunned.
"Why did you co?"
It was also not early anymore.
"I wanted to see my girlfriend."
Shen Dang wrapped one arm around her waist, and with the other hand at the back of her head, he pulled her close against his chest, the movent was as if he intended to ld her into himself.
His voice was deep but captivating, tinged with an intimate tenderness, he whispered in her ear, "I really wanted to see you."
So, he ca.
Boss Shen’s effortlessly spoken sweet nothings nearly caused Qiao Xi to blush and her ears to turn red on the spot.
The thick scent of his pheromones enveloped her, causing her heart rate to accelerate involuntarily.
She pushed at him slightly, her eyes downcast as she didn’t dare to look at him, "It’s getting late."
His hand softly stroked the hair at the back of her head, his voice wrapped with a light laugh, "That doesn’t affect seeing you."
Qiao Xi: "..."
