Chapter 176: Chapter 176 Boss Shen: You’re Accepting Gifts From Another Man?

Cui Wenbai: "..."

He knew, but what could he do?

He couldn’t refuse Chu Wan.

Such an argument was pointless; Qiao Xi looked at Chu Wan’s face and suddenly lost her interest.

She turned to Su Tutu and said, "Tutu, let’s go inside and watch them play mahjong."

"Let’s go. It’s so stifling here."

Su Tutu indirectly insulted someone with her remark and followed Qiao Xi inside.

Halfway there, she suddenly pulled Qiao Xi to a stop and turned to look at Chu Wan with undisguised disgust on her face, "It’s not that Xixi is stingy and doesn’t let you call Boss Shen by his name, but calling him so intimately in front of his wife is out of line. And don’t you know what Boss Shen’s attitude towards you is? What’s with this act of familiarity? Are you trying to annoy yourself or others?"

The smile on Chu Wan’s face faded slightly, "Miss Su might think so because of her own dark thoughts, I guess."

Su Tutu flicked her hair and said with an expressionless smile, "You can call me Mrs. Sheng, I’m a married woman."

No one spoke for a moment.

Su Tutu had married Sheng Chao, rising in status, with some saying she was the second Xie Baola.

Daring to say anything, fearless.

She had just left Chu Wan with a huge embarrassment.

One had to admit, Chu Wan had strong composure; hearing Su Tutu’s remarks, she casually asked, "Who’s playing mahjong inside?"

Cui Wenbai answered, "It’s Brother Dang and Brother Chao and the others."

"Isn’t there another mahjong table inside? Does anyone else want to play?" Chu Wan asked, looking around.

With several of the big brothers playing inside, who would dare to interrupt them? Isn’t it nice to play on your own out here?

So, no one spoke.

Chu Wan’s expression stiffened.

What exactly were these people afraid of?

No wonder they were always overshadowed by Shen Dang and Sheng Chao.

Seeing this, Cui Wenbai suggested, "It’s too crowded inside; how about we play dice instead?"

Chu Wan took the hint and accepted, "...Sure."

Everyone thought that Chu Xiuyun would leave with a sullen face now that Qiao Xi was gone, but to their surprise, he sat down too.

Sheng Chao noticed Su Tutu’s return with a grim expression and held her hand, asking in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Su Tutu pouted, "The Chu siblings showed up. They’re outside, and I didn’t want to see them."

Shen Dang glanced at Qiao Xi, raised an eyebrow, the implication clear: They’re here for you, aren’t they?

Qiao Xi looked back at him, clearly implying they were there for him instead.

Tang Honghe reflexively glanced at Shen Dang and Qiao Xi and frowned deeply, "Who notified them?"

Su Tutu replied, "Cui Wenbai ran into them outside."

"It’s fine, let them come; aren’t we all friends?" Qu Keke couldn’t help but interject.

Qu Jiashu shot her a look, what a fool!

Shen Dang gave Qiao Xi a glance, his gaze gentle, "Would you like to continue playing?"

Qiao Xi shook her head, "No, I’m done. Did you win?"

Shen Dang answered with a languid smile, "I won a lot, the interest has been recouped."

Qiao Xi’s eyes curved, "Then keep it up. I won’t play anymore; I don’t want to lose it back to Tang Honghe again."

"Okay, then you sit and watch me."

"Oh."

Watching the two exchange words, Qu Keke’s hand on her leg couldn’t help but clench into a fist.

"Brother Dang, let me take your place!" Qu Keke shouted.

She had wanted to sit next to Brother Dang before, but neither Brother Dang nor her brother had let her, so annoying!

Hearing her, everyone looked at Qu Keke; the couple was together, why butt in?

Qu Keke acted nonchalant, what were they looking at her for? Was what she said wrong?

"If you can’t even recognize the patterns, get out, don’t be in the way here!" Qu Jiashu said indifferently.

Qu Keke twisted her waist without moving an inch, "I won’t leave!"

"Then shut up!"

"Alright, let’s start; Jiashu, it’s your turn to draw," Shen Dang said with drooping eyelids.

Tang Honghe cried out in distress, "It’s over; with sister-in-law here, Brother Dang is invigorated and is going to bully me again!"

Su Tutu chuckled, "That’s what you get for being a bachelor."

Qu Jiashu, who felt unjustly attacked, retorted, "...If I don’t get rid of my single status, I won’t come to the gathering next time."

The table buzzed with excitement once more.

After a while of playing, the group returned to the private room.

Hearing their arrival, Chu Xiuyun and Chu Wan were the first to look their way.

But one was looking at Qiao Xi, and the other at Shen Dang.

Seeing Chu Xiuyun still there, Shen Dang’s eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of chill.

With just one glance, he withdrew his gaze: "You guys keep playing, it’s late, Xixi and I will head back."

His perfectly stunning features were touched with laziness and a natural sense of nobility.

Even the disdainful look in his eyes was at a level unreachable by others.

Because that look was clearly saying he didn’t put anyone in his eyes at all.

Suddenly, Chu Xiuyun stood up and said in front of everyone, "Xixi, I have a New Year’s gift for you."

Shen Dang let out a cold laugh toward Qiao Xi, "You’re accepting New Year’s gifts from other men?"

Qiao Xi tilted her head, "Can’t I?"

Shen Dang asked her, seemingly indifferent but serious, "What do you think?"

But those eyes earnestly said: No, you can’t.

Chu Xiuyun’s face visibly darkened with sarcasm, "Shen Dang, even if Xixi married you, can’t she accept gifts from friends? Aren’t you being a little too domineering?"

And besides, you’re divorced now, what’s the point of declaring your rights over her in front of him, isn’t it laughable!

"Am I domineering?"

Shen Dang addressed this to Qiao Xi, aside from that first glance, he all but completely ignored Chu Xiuyun.

"Ah?" Hearing Shen Dang ask, Qiao Xi smiled, "I quite like your domineering side."

Her usually ethereal face took on a coquettish charm.

At such a time, Qiao Xi naturally stood by Shen Dang’s side.

"What if he says he wants to give you a gift?" Shen Dang’s mouth curved into what seemed like a smile, but his face was devoid of any.

"I won’t accept it."

Qiao Xi was already standing beside Shen Dang, now she clasped his arm, "I only accept gifts from you."

Shen Dang’s mouth finally curved into a satisfied smile, "Let’s go, your gift is at home, I’ll give it to you when we get back."

"Mhm."

The two disregarded Chu Xiuyun completely.

[A divorce certificate means what? As long as Shen Dang and I are in accord, that’s enough.]

The words of Qiao Xi echoed suddenly in Chu Xiuyun’s mind.

Shock showed on his face, could it be she—

Chu Xiuyun refused to believe and coldly smirked, "At home? Have you two already—"

"Brother!"

Chu Wan hurriedly interrupted Chu Xiuyun, "Don’t speak!"

Chu Xiuyun looked at her with narrowed eyes but ended up saying nothing more.

Everyone: "..."

What does ’already’ mean? Say it!

They’re adults; what is it that they can’t know?!
