Chapter 104: Chapter 104 My Relationship with Qiao Xi Is Not Good

Is this man poisoned or what?

Qiao Xi felt uneasy inside.

The phone vibrated several times in succession, and Qiao Xi looked down to check.

Qiao Nan first sent over a period, probably a test to see if the message would go through, then sent several more messages in a row.

Just by looking, it was clear that Qiao Zhenbin was the one using Qiao Nan’s phone.

[Xixi, Daddy was just joking with you just now.]

[Daddy was wrong to blame you, I’m sorry, please forgive Daddy.]

[That piece of land is very important to Daddy, and to the entire Qiao Group. Help Daddy out, plead with Ah Dang to give back the land, I’m willing to buy it from him, just help Daddy this one time.]

[You and Ah Dang are on such good terms now, Daddy believes Ah Dang will definitely listen to you.]

Knowing she still had some use, Qiao Zhenbin went from just now’s haughtiness to being humble again.

Qiao Xi scoffed directly, her smile full of mockery.

Shen Dang gave his eyelids a slight lift and looked at her, "What’s wrong?"

Qiao Xi said with a half-smile, "Someone wants you to give up that piece of land."

Hearing this, Shen Dang couldn’t help but laugh out as well, "Oh."

It seemed his scolding of Qiao Zhenbin had not been misplaced.

This person is not a human at all, but a pig!

No, that’s not right, saying pig is a bit of an insult to him.

Shen Dang’s eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of sharpness and frostiness emerging: "Can you now answer the question I asked earlier?"

Qiao Xi felt inexplicable, "What question?"

Shen Dang’s dark pupils reflected her face, "I’ve already asked you, do you want your family’s business to disappear from Hai City?"

He seemed to be smiling, but an oppressive force approached her inch by inch, "Can you answer this question now?"

Suddenly, Qiao Xi felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation as she and Shen Dang held each other’s gaze at a comfortably close distance.

There was a table between them.

It was clearly a safe distance.

But Qiao Xi’s chest felt like it had been seized, somewhat panicked.

By bringing up this question again, did he know something?

Shen Dang’s eyes had no emotion, a lazy smile sounded, "Is it hard to answer? Or are you afraid of something?"

Qiao Xi couldn’t stand his provocation.

She retorted sarcastically, "What am I afraid of? What do I have to be afraid of? Could it be that Boss Shen also wants to handle my family matters?"

"I have no obligation to manage for you, but if you’re planning something, just mention it to Grandfather, he won’t hesitate."

Qiao Xi had never thought of asking the Shen Family for help.

But hearing Shen Dang’s words, a sense of loss, completely uncontrollable, rose from the bottom of her heart.

Her eyelids drooped, she leaned back against the chair, hiding her expression, "Why bother Grandfather."

Shen Dang’s gaze held a measure of scrutiny, "Then inconvenience me?"

Qiao Xi directly refused, "No need for that either."

She lifted her gaze towards Shen Dang, already regaining her composed grace.

Shen Dang’s eyes were deep and dark: "Then answer me."

Qiao Xi’s phoenix eyes stared at him unblinkingly, her red lips slightly opening, cold and noble, "Yes!"

She no longer denied her own thoughts.

The rose had finally grown thorns that could make people bleed.

To be beautiful or to bleed.

What Qiao Xi wanted most now was for Qiao Zhenbin to have invested that money only to end up with nothing.

But she couldn’t do it.

Chen Jiayan couldn’t do it either.

Shen Dang suddenly chuckled, "So you secretly bought up shares of the Qiao Group?"

The look in someone’s eyes when they want to stab you is impossible to hide, Qiao Xi’s pupils contracted sharply, "How did you know?"

She hadn’t done it directly; the matter should have been very secretive. How on earth did Shen Dang know?

Shen Dang indifferently replied, "The man you had a meal with last time, seems to have a deep relationship with you."

There seemed to be a trace of something unusual in the depths of his eyes.

Were they considered childhood sweethearts?

Qiao Xi found it unbelievable, "You’re investigating us? Are you idle? What does this have to do with you?"

Right now, Qiao Xi’s mind was a mess, "Why do you know about him? What exactly are you trying to do?"

The door to the private room was knocked, and several female servers dressed in Tang suits entered in procession, carrying dishes.

Shen Dang looked at her, a smile curling at his lips, "Shall we eat first? We can talk after the meal, we have plenty of time."

Qiao Xi’s voice was cold, "You’ve been secretly investigating us, do you think I can still eat?"

She had carefully calculated everything but was still discovered by him about Chen Jiayan.

Shen Dang raised his eyebrows lazily and said with complacency, "It’s not that I specifically investigated; it’s just with how secretive you were acting, I thought you were having an affair."

"It wasn’t me who took your photos either. Who asked you to go to my place to have a meal, not realizing I’d appear to have another man cutting in on my territory?"

He even laughed, "What would that do to my reputation if word got out?"

Qiao Xi had an urge to beat him up.

How can he be so capable?

Qiao Xi scorned him fully, "Boss Shen, with that imagination of yours, it’s a waste not to be a playwright or a paparazzi."

Shen Dang tapped his brows a few times, "Regrettably I can’t contribute to the entertainment industry."

He really seemed to regret it.

Qiao Xi measured him with narrowed eyes, a cool smile, "Who took the photos? It’s so boring talking to you about this. Is someone sick in the head?"

"Who it was isn’t important. What is important is that everyone knows about our relationship, ever heard of being proactive?"

"..." Qiao Xi "huh’d" and scoffed, "You and Tang Honghe really do deserve to be brothers."

Tang Honghe: "..."

Got busted.

Shen Dang’s lips curled slightly, "There’s no need to be angry. I’m not planning to denounce you."

Qiao Xi, with her arms crossed and chin coolly raised, "Go ahead, nobody can stop you if you want to."

That clearly had a touch of pique.

Shen Dang laughed at her indignation, "What’s it to me about Qiao Zhenbin; do you really think I’m that idle?"

He just had someone check up on Chen Jiayan and just happened to find out about his secret dealings.

It really was a coincidence.

And he guessed that Qiao Zhenbin hadn’t discovered what these two people were doing in secret yet.

Qiao Xi, unable to agree nor deny, "I really think you are quite idle."

Shen Dang shrugged his shoulders: "Can’t help it if you think that."

Qiao Xi: "..."

Isn’t this just the typical playbook of a scumbag?

Qiao Xi rolled her eyes.

She opened WeChat, took her phone, and tossed it in front of Shen Dang, "You caused this mess, you reject him yourself."

Hungry as hell, Qiao Xi said her piece and bowed her head to concentrate on eating, no longer paying attention to Shen Dang.

Shen Dang glanced down and saw several messages.

Shen Dang snorted, picked up the phone, and casually replied with a voice message: "President Qiao, one should be aware of oneself. Don’t blame heaven and others when you lack the strength. Business doesn’t care about personal feelings; I’m not going let that piece of land go."

Seeing that Qiao Xi had no reaction, he continued: "It’s no use asking Qiao Xi to beg me, I’m not King Zhou of Shang."

"And besides, my relationship with Qiao Xi isn’t good."

"That’s it."

The last sentence, Shen Dang said to Qiao Xi.

Shen Dang tilted his head, "Am I saying this to your satisfaction, Teacher Qiao?"
