"What is this, taking advantage and still playing innocent!"
But Qiao Xi wasn’t wrong. The money she earned from acting really did have to be shared with Le Entertainnt.
If President Fang wasn’t foolish, he naturally knew what the right thing to do was.
Just don’t step on his own company’s artists.
At this mont, the secretary brought in so coffee.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, the secretary quickly left after putting down the coffee.
Qiao Xi was in a good mood. She elegantly sipped her coffee, her voice clear, "Thanks for the coffee, President Fang."
Wang Li also said, "Thanks, President Fang."
Qiao Xi smiled slightly, "Then, President Fang, Sister Li and I will take our leave now. We have another appointnt in the afternoon."
President Fang waved his hand at them, unable to utter a word.
After returning to Wang Li’s office, the two of them burst into laughter.
Seeing President Fang frustrated delighted them.
Of course, the story about Qiao Xi signing the contract was a lie to deceive President Fang. Otherwise, she would have been at his rcy.
Why would she cause trouble for herself before terminating the contract?
Bei Bei didn’t understand what they were laughing about, looking confused, "What happened that was so funny?"
Wang Li, "Good news!"
"..."
So what exactly is the good news?
"I’ll treat you to a al," Qiao Xi patted Bei Bei’s shoulder.
Bei Bei chuckled, "That’s definitely good news! Let’s go, let’s go!"
In the afternoon, Qiao Xi attended an offline brand event and afterward, she returned to Yingyue Bay.
Qiao Xi thought about it and decided not to return to her original dwelling, afraid that Old Master Shen might contact her.
Shen Dang’s absence indeed made her feel much more relaxed.
She didn’t have to be influenced by him or think about those baseless issues.
After a few days of calm, Shen Dang returned from a business trip abroad.
Qiao Xi was at ho reading a script.
Shen Dang, weary from travel, still couldn’t hide his lazy aristocratic deanor.
Hearing the noise, Qiao Xi lazily looked toward the door, "Boss Shen is back."
Her voice was cool, her tone ordinary, rely a simple greeting.
But Shen Dang suddenly felt a sensation he had never experienced before.
Strange yet not unwelco.
He had returned from across the ocean, and here, soone was waiting for him.
A lost traveler welcod by a beacon of light.
"Um," he spoke, realizing his voice was hoarse.
Shen Dang felt his voice was a bit abnormal, so he went to the kitchen and poured a glass of water to drink.
His figure leaned lazily against the doorway of the dining room, his eyes deeply observing Qiao Xi not far from him.
She wore a yellow knitted long dress, simple yet elegant attire, her appearance at ho seed less aloof.
And a bit more intimate.
Surprise still lingered in his eyes.
He thought Qiao Xi would have returned to Sheng Birch Mansion while he was away.
Shen Dang smiled, placing the water glass on the coffee table, lifted his eyebrows and spoke in a deep voice, "Teacher Qiao."
"Boss Shen."
Both were quite polite.
Shen Dang’s phone rang at that mont.
He answered the call, his gaze still on Qiao Xi, but she had already lowered her eyes back to the script.
"Hello."
"President Shen, we’re on the way now."
Shen Dang replied indifferently, "Mhm, co straight here."
Shen Dang tapped on the coffee table and hearing the sound, Qiao Xi glanced lazily over and saw Shen Dang with a half-smile asking, "Teacher Qiao, do you want to go out later and watch a good show with ?"
"What kind of show?"
"About Qiao Zhenbin."
"No thanks," Qiao Xi’s interest waned, "If it’s really a good show, just tell about it when you return."
As for going to watch, sorry, she didn’t want to waste the ti.
A couple of days ago, on Wang Wen’s birthday, Qiao Nan had sent her a birthday photo, attempting to incite her envy and jealousy.
But Qiao Xi felt no stir of emotion.
She just laughed it off.
Shen Dang watched her for a few seconds, "Okay."
Shen Dang took his suitcase and returned to his room.
They had been living together for so ti. Shen Dang hadn’t hired any housekeepers, only occasionally had soone co to clean.
Qiao Xi also didn’t like having too many strangers at ho, a point on which Shen Dang agreed with her.
It wasn’t long before Assistant Gao arrived at Yingyue Bay.
Seeing the woman on the sofa, almost faery-like in her delicate beauty, he exclaid, "Mada, you’re here?"
Qiao Xi greeted him with a faint polite smile, "Are you looking for Shen Dang? He’s upstairs."
Assistant Gao smiled, "I’ll just wait here for President Shen."
Wow!
So President Shen and the mada have already moved to cohabitation.
Things are progressing fast!
Could he be expecting to celebrate their marriage soon?
Qiao Xi didn’t know that Assistant Gao had thought so much in such a short ti. Supporting her forehead with her hand, she lazily asked, "What are you guys going to do later?"
Was this sothing he could talk about?
Maybe...
Assistant Gao thought it wasn’t a secret, and he wasn’t divulging any company secrets either, so he honestly said, "We’re going to a land bidding eting."
Interestingly, this land wasn’t only desired by their boss but also by another familiar person.
This was getting interesting.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly.
A land bidding eting?
What could be so interesting about that?
Soon, Shen Dang ca down. He had changed into a different outfit, a neat suit, all in black with a silver-gray coat, looking stern and noble.
His deanor created a clear distance from others, exuding a chilly aloofness that seed only to be admired from afar.
His hair was combed back, revealing a full, smooth forehead, and a face that anyone would find pleasing.
Handso and carefree, his aura fully unleashed.
"Are you sure you won’t co?" Shen Dang asked lazily before leaving.
Qiao Xi lifted the script, "No, I’m reading the script."
"Then take your ti."
Shen Dang left with Assistant Gao.
The words on the script suddenly started jumping in front of her eyes.
Qiao Xi shook her head, suddenly recalling what Chen Jiayan had ntioned.
Qiao Zhenbin was investing in real estate, so he definitely needed to buy land first—without land, how could he build anything?
Could it be that the plot of land Qiao Zhenbin was interested in was also the one Shen Dang had his eyes on?
Wow, what a coincidence!
With Boss Shen involved, was there even a need to guess who would win or lose?
This was indeed going to be quite a show.
Wang Li called her again, excited about another piece of good news.
"Sweetie, your magazine cover is out. Rember to post a tweet later. I’ll send you the photo, have a look."
"I can just look in the mirror," Qiao Xi joked with her.
Wang Li was thrilled on the other end, "You still have to see the photo, feel the fairy-like aura coming at you!"
Qiao Xi laughed at Wang Li’s excitent.
"Alright, I’ll take a look at Loser Qiao."
Wang Li was shocked, "Loser? You?"
Since when did a fairy call herself a loser?
Qiao Xi hadn’t even had a chance to tweet when President Fang’s call ca through first.
"Qiao Xi, co to the office now."
"Now?"
"Yes, co over as soon as possible. I’ll wait for you."
President Fang hung up after speaking.
Not knowing what President Fang wanted, Qiao Xi made a call to Wang Li before heading out.
"Sister Li, President Fang suddenly asked to co to the office. Could sothing have happened?"
