Chapter 103: Chapter 103 Look at the Mess You’ve Made
Anyway, she was not going to make a wedding dress for Zhou Junqi, let alone playing a leading man, even a minor role was out of the question.
She never intended to let Zhou Junqi join the same drama crew as her.
Annoying.
Shen Dang raised an eyebrow, "Should I go ask?"
Qiao Xi: "..."
Shen Dang’s arrogant and beautiful face lifted with a faint smile: "I honestly haven’t heard anything. Working with the Film Emperor, do you feel any pressure?"
His posture was casual as he removed his wristwatch, his gaze impossible to ignore, staying fixed on her face.
Qiao Xi just laughed, "How could I possibly?"
She didn’t plan on saying much more.
Telling Shen Dang about President Fang wanting her to mentor newcomers was pointless.
Shen Dang tapped the table absent-mindedly, a "thud" sounded, deep and dull: "Then let me ask you something in return."
Qiao Xi rolled her eyes subtly and returned his words: "Go ahead and ask, can I really say no?"
Boss Shen was a bit aggressive: "You could."
Qiao Xi was speechless, had Shen Dang come just to block her way?
She let out a "heh" with a laugh: "Then just don’t ask."
"But I still have to ask." Shen Dang pressed on directly: "After terminating your contract with Le Entertainment, where do you plan to go?"
Qiao Xi looked up at him.
Many people had asked her this question.
But she hadn’t expected Shen Dang to be one of them.
What did he mean by asking this?
Qiao Xi had no time to guess and no interest in guessing: "I honestly don’t know, so I can’t answer you."
Qiao Xi said it seriously.
Shen Dang raised an eyebrow slightly: "Teacher Qiao, have you considered GK? We can discuss terms."
Boss Shen was also throwing her an olive branch.
This was something Qiao Xi had never expected.
How influential a person Shen Dang was! The original GK already possessed impressive strength, with no shortage of artists under its banner, including several Film Emperors and Movie Queens.
After he took over GK, it could not possibly fare worse than when President Chen was in charge.
Does GK still need an artist of her secondary status?
However, if she had to choose between Shengshi and GK, Qiao Xi would not hesitate to choose the former.
Don’t ask why; she just wanted to keep her distance from Shen Dang.
Working in the same company as her almost-ex-husband, wouldn’t that be awkward?
She didn’t want to invite trouble for herself.
Qiao Xi said indifferently: "I should know the answer after I finish filming ’Detective in the Republic’."
Shen Dang hummed in response from his throat.
The two did not continue the discussion.
Qiao Xi’s phone rang, with a call from an unfamiliar number.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly but still answered.
Before she could speak, an angry voice came through: "Qiao Xi, look at the mess you’ve made!"
The voice was so loud it almost burst Qiao Xi’s eardrum.
Who else could harbor such resentment against her but Qiao Zhenbin?
A pair of blood-related father and daughter, yet acting like enemies.
A glint of scorn flickered in Qiao Xi’s eyes; though they were not much different than enemies now.
She glanced at the number, unfamiliar, not Wang Wen’s or Qiao Nan’s.
A heavy atmosphere surrounded Qiao Xi, her red lips slightly parting, revealing a chilling arc: "I don’t know what I’ve done. Shouldn’t you clarify the situation before you start scolding someone?"
A small, ice-cold face radiated a ghostly chill.
Qiao Xi was fuming on the inside.
At this moment, Qiao Zhenbin wouldn’t listen to anything Qiao Xi had to say, he just barraged her with accusations: "Do you know what your husband did? He snatched the land I had my eye on. Was it you who told him to oppose me deliberately? Qiao Xi, what good does this do you?!"
He’s made his verdict based on some crazy rumors.
But Qiao Xi thought about it and couldn’t think of anything besides pillow talk.
Qiao Xi scoffed: "You said it yourself, doing so does me no good. So why do you think it was me?"
Qiao Zhenbin actually thought it was her asking Shen Dang to compete with him for the land. Even if she had done so, would Shen Dang have listened to her?
"I’ve never talked to Shen Dang about it!"
"Then why did he happen to snatch the land I wanted?"
Qiao Zhenbin had long seen Qiao Xi’s rebellious heart.
Without her interference, he really had no reason to believe Shen Dang’s actions were a coincidence.
He did not believe in coincidences!
"Shen Dang is right here, do you want to talk to him yourself?" Qiao Xi’s eyes were cold and emotionless.
Qiao Xi hadn’t put the call on speaker, but Qiao Zhenbin’s loud voice was heard by Shen Dang in bits and pieces.
Shen Dang directly took the mobile phone from Qiao Xi’s hand.
Qiao Xi was taken aback.
She had just said it, not expecting Shen Dang to actually take the call.
Shen Dang brought the phone to his ear, his lips slightly parted, his voice cold: "Does President Qiao have something to say to me?"
Qiao Zhenbin had never anticipated hearing a laid-back male voice on the other end of the line, and it made him feel somewhat guilty.
He was so full of rage he didn’t think Shen Dang would deliberately oppose him unless he was taking cues from someone else.
Who would have thought Shen Dang was actually there?
Qiao Zhenbin’s attitude changed in an instant.
A true master of face-changing.
"Ah Dang, I..."
"President Qiao might as well call me President Shen." He was now standing on the side of the Shen Family.
Thinking of what the old man had said and seeing Qiao Zhenbin’s two-faced nature, shouldn’t he feel guilty towards Qiao Xi?
No wonder Qiao Xi rebelled.
People who have grown up in a happy family wouldn’t understand.
Some fathers are not really fathers but wolves in disguise.
"Yes, yes, President Shen," Qiao Zhenbin probed: "Are you currently with Xixi?"
Shen Dang glanced at Qiao Xi. She had an icy look, cold and detached.
"If I wasn’t with Xixi, I wouldn’t have known that President Qiao would blame me for the piece of land I outbid you for."
Shen Dang sneered, "Are you blaming me for not leaving that parcel of land for you?"
"I..."
"President Qiao is not really suggesting his capabilities fall short, is he? To blame someone else for this, that’s beyond my expectations."
Shen Dang didn’t give Qiao Zhenbin a chance to explain, lazily mocking: "I didn’t expect President Qiao to be such a sore loser."
"I..."
Shen Dang cut him off again: "Bidding is all about capabilities, President Qiao at your age should understand that, right?"
"..."
"Why not be a better person?"
With cold mockery, Shen Dang hung up directly.
He handed the phone back to Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi took the phone, stunned.
Why had he suddenly spoken up for her?
Seeing that Qiao Xi was dazed and unresponsive, Shen Dang tapped the table: "Aren’t you going to block his number?"
Qiao Xi came back to her senses and immediately blocked the number again.
If Qiao Zhenbin could call her again, she could keep on blocking him.
Looking at the number lying in the blacklist, Qiao Xi suddenly realized—
Why was she listening to Shen Dang’s orders?
He told her to block and she blocked, had she gone crazy, or was she possessed?
