Chapter 136: Chapter 136 Boss Shen: You Might Misunderstand My Relationship with Teacher Qiao
Shen Dang glanced up and saw the malicious joy in Qiao Xi’s smile, he hummed from his throat in a faint voice, "Where is Teacher Qiao’s lounge? Can you take me there? I have some things I want to talk to you about."
!!!
Qiao Xi instantly became alert.
She forced a smile, "It might not be convenient, there are so many eyes around the crew, if everyone misunderstands our relationship, it would not be good."
"Would they?" Shen Dang’s dark eyes swept over the group of people nearby, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, but his tone remained light, "Would you misunderstand my relationship with Teacher Qiao?"
Even if they wanted to misunderstand, they wouldn’t dare say it out loud.
"No, no."
"How could we?"
"We all know President Shen and Teacher Qiao are just friends."
"Since President Shen knows Qiao Xi, Qiao Xi, just take President Shen to your lounge. It’s not good for President Shen to squat here and eat box meals with us."
The last sentence was spoken by Mo Qing.
Shen Dang then looked at Qiao Xi, waiting calmly for her decision.
All eyes were on her.
Under the intense scrutiny from those around her, if she refused again, it would confirm there was something fishy going on between them.
You’re ruthless!
Qiao Xi said respectfully, "Please, Boss Shen."
"Thank you, Teacher Qiao."
Shen Dang spoke politely.
Qiao Xi internally gnashed her teeth.
Knowing it was trouble, why did he still deliberately say these things?
If Su Tutu was here, she could have helped her block some of it.
Unfortunately, Su Tutu and Sheng Chao had gone out to have their small feast.
Qiao Xi didn’t want to be a third wheel, so she didn’t go.
Now she regretted it, deeply regretted it.
She led Shen Dang to her lounge, her expression cold, "Boss Shen, please take your time with the box meal here, I..."
Shen Dang stretched out his hand to close the lounge door and then locked it.
Qiao Xi looked up at Shen Dang, "What are you doing?"
Locking the door from the inside, was she not supposed to be able to leave?
"Sit."
Shen Dang tilted his jaw, his demeanor lazy and aristocratic, as if he owned the place.
Qiao Xi turned to leave; she didn’t want to be alone with Shen Dang.
Seeing her intent, Shen Dang said, "Why run? I really have something to tell you."
Qiao Xi laughed irritably, her pretty face as cold as ice, "Why would I run? This is my lounge."
Shen Dang smiled ambiguously, "Then come and sit."
Qiao Xi stood still, her eyes cold, "What are you really here for?"
Shen Dang placed the box meal on the table, showing no intention of eating, "Mom found out about the stuff on the Internet, so she sent me to check on you."
Though the director had instructed everyone not to spread the news about Qiao Xi receiving a dead rat, the police involvement meant the whole hotel knew something was up, and inevitably, some news leaked out.
So the internet was still buzzing with the news.
Qiao Xi’s expression softened slightly, "Didn’t you tell your mom? I’m fine."
Shen Dang, resting his forehead on his hand, met her gaze, "I told her, but she won’t be reassured until I see you myself."
Moreover, the person behind this hadn’t been caught yet.
"Now that you’ve seen me, you can leave. Otherwise, everyone will really misinterpret our relationship."
Qiao Xi deliberately kept her distance from him.
Her eyebrows were drawn long and sharp at the tails, thin and lengthy, adding a classical charm to her beauty.
She still wore the drama crew’s costume, a pink cheongsam that highlighted her curvaceous figure.
Elegant without losing graciousness, vibrant without sacrificing purity and allure.
She was uniquely beautiful.
Seeing her photo was nothing compared to the impact she had in person.
Tang Honghe was right; she was like a noble flower from the human world stepping into reality.
But this flower made him feel quite unpleasant.
Shen Dang’s gaze carried scrutiny and pressure, hard to ignore.
Qiao Xi felt almost like jumping out of her skin under his gaze, her face growing colder, "What are you looking at?"
Shen Dang lazily smiled, "You’re beautiful."
Qiao Xi, "...Have you lost your mind?"
Shen Dang’s eyebrows lifted, his lips curved in a faint smile, "Perhaps."
Qiao Xi, "???"
She wanted to send him away, "If you’re not eating the box meal, then leave."
Shen Dang, with slight disdain, "Is this what you usually eat on set?"
"These are already the best the crew has, and those extras don’t even get this good."
Qiao Xi, born a rich young lady, had tasted her own share of hardships after her mother was gone.
When she was on set, she never acted like a spoiled rich girl; she ate what everyone else ate.
She performed her own stunts and action scenes, never using a stunt double.
She endured all the bruises silently without a complaint.
If it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have reached her current status or gained Mo Qing’s favor.
"Where’s your sister?"
"With Sheng Chao."
Shen Dang tapped on the lid of the box meal, "Are you still hungry? I can give you mine."
Qiao Xi, speechless, "I’m not a pig."
Shen Dang nodded approvingly, "Right, you’re a fairy."
Qiao Xi, "..."
Why the sarcasm?
Shen Dang could tell from her expression that she didn’t believe a word he said.
He suddenly clicked his tongue lightly, "I will be staying in Jiang City for a few days."
Qiao Xi’s expression remained cold and indifferent, "Oh."
How is that her concern?
"Leaving."
Shen Dang opened the door and stepped out.
Jiang Yongge saw him leaving and cheerfully asked, "Is President Shen leaving so soon?"
Shen Dang glanced at him and responded lazily, "Yeah."
Shen Dang’s visit was like a breeze, coming and going without leaving much of an impression on the crew.
Qin Mo smiled gently, commenting lightly, "Yongge, Boss Shen really seems to care about the artists under his company’s banner."
"Yes."
Jiang Yongge said, "Joining GK was a very wise decision."
Qin Mo looked at Jiang Yongge, seeming also unaware of the relationship between Qiao Xi and Shen Dang.
Perhaps everyone thought Shen Dang came because of Jiang Yongge, but he knew he had come for Qiao Xi.
Jiang Yongge patted his shoulder, "Shengshi is good too; otherwise, I would have wanted to bring you over to GK."
...
That evening, another courier box arrived at the reception, claimed to be a fan’s gift for Qiao Xi.
Knowing what had happened the night before, the reception did not dare deliver it directly to Qiao Xi and called her instead.
Qiao Xi went to the reception, and Shen Dang had just returned from outside.
His tall and handsome stature inexplicably brought a sense of safety.
His gaze fell on Qiao Xi’s face, "What happened?"
Qiao Xi glanced at him, her voice chilly, wrapped in coldness, "Another box, supposedly for me."
Shen Dang said to the reception, "Give me the scissors."
Shen Dang took the scissors passed by the reception and slit open the outer tape of the box, revealing a dead rat inside as he opened it.
"Ah!"
Late at night, the reception nearly fainted at the sight.
Qiao Xi also turned pale.
She had only heard about the dead rat from the police the night before and hadn’t seen it herself; now, facing this bloody scene, she couldn’t help but feel terrified afterward.
Shen Dang scraped her palm lightly, "Don’t be scared."
