Chapter 185: Chapter 185: Do You Really Want to Sign Me?

Even if there were, such feelings wouldn’t last long.

...

Mid-March.

The shooting of "Detective in the Republic" hadn’t finished yet.

But Qiao Xi’s contract with Le Entertainment was about to expire.

After asking for leave with Mo Qing, she returned to Hai City.

Shen Dang knew Qiao Xi was coming back today, so he specially went to the airport to pick her up.

Outside the terminal, cars and pedestrians were bustling about, and Qiao Xi, while searching for Shen Dang’s car, spotted Assistant Gao first.

Assistant Gao waved at them.

"Mrs. Boss, over here."

Qiao Xi and Bei Bei walked over.

Assistant Gao opened the car door for Qiao Xi, "Mrs. Boss, please get in first, I’ll take care of your luggage."

Bei Bei saw this assistant again, who looked like a corporate assistant from a Korean drama.

She wondered if Boss Shen chose his assistants based on their looks?

After all, Overbearing Boss Shen was just like the characters on TV.

"Thank you."

Bei Bei watched Assistant Gao’s eyes curve into a smile and said thanks.

Sitting in the back seat were Shen Dang and Qiao Xi, while Bei Bei, sitting in the passenger seat, was too nervous to speak.

Assistant Gao got back in the car and asked with a smile, "President Shen, where are we heading now?"

Shen Dang glanced at Qiao Xi, a hint of amusement in his eyes, and said lazily, "He’s asking you, where to?"

Qiao Xi said, "Let’s go to Yingyue Bay... and drop Bei Bei off at home first."

Bei Bei quickly waved her hands, "No need, no need!"

She knew she should have just taken public transport; how could she trouble them to send her?

As Bei Bei was about to unbuckle her seatbelt to get out, she heard the assistant beside her asking, "Where do you live?"

Seeing that Shen Dang didn’t say anything, Assistant Gao naturally understood the boss’s intentions.

Embarrassed, Bei Bei gave an address.

The car started slowly and soon merged into the traffic.

"When are you going to terminate your contract with Le Entertainment?"

Shen Dang’s lazy voice echoed inside the car.

Qiao Xi said, "Tomorrow, I guess."

President Fang also knows I won’t renew, so there’s no need for beating around the bush, just take the contract and go.

"I’ll go with you tomorrow."

"No need, Sister Li will accompany me."

"..."

A trace of ruefulness flickered in Shen Dang’s eyes.

He drew Qiao Xi’s hand onto his lap, "Can’t I go with you? I’ll be there to support you."

Bei Bei couldn’t help but snicker at this, which was so abrupt she quickly covered her mouth.

She really couldn’t help it.

Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh either, and after extracting her hand from Shen Dang’s, she said, "There’s no need for you, Boss Shen, to make a presence; Le Entertainment won’t make things difficult for me, and your divine intervention isn’t necessary."

President Fang had asked her to bring two newcomers and she had, although Wei Xue paid a price for what she had done, it didn’t affect her part in "Detective in the Republic."

And Zhi Fei had performed exceptionally in her shooting and was rumored to have immediately been cast in a small web series after finishing "Detective in the Republic."

With effort, one could still make strides.

Le Entertainment had been exploiting her for over a year; Qiao Xi had done what she needed and would do nothing more she didn’t want to.

Shen Dang twirled his fingers, feeling a bit regretful, but didn’t reach for her hand again, his gaze however, stayed glued to her face.

"Have you decided which agency to sign with?"

During this conversation, it just so happened that Sheng Chao called.

Qiao Xi shook her phone in front of him with a slight smile, "What a coincidence, Brother Chao’s calling."

Probably, he heard from Su Tutu about her returning to dissolve the contract. His timing was impeccable.

Shen Dang covered her phone screen, his extremely handsome face marked with displeasure, "Don’t answer."

What kind of brother was this, still trying to poach in front of him?

Qiao Xi laughed it off; Boss Shen was indeed tinged with the aura of an ’Overbearing Boss.’

"You can’t be rude."

She took her phone from under his hand and answered Sheng Chao’s call.

"Put it on speaker," Boss Shen added.

"Stop messing around."

"I want to hear how that scoundrel plans to poach from me."

"What poach? You talk nonsense."

Shen Dang leaned toward Qiao Xi, and if she disagreed, he would just do it himself.

Seeing this, Qiao Xi reluctantly turned on speakerphone.

She was really fed up with him — with someone else in the car, he could still behave so shamelessly.

Qiao Xi glanced at Shen Dang, then with a slight smile towards the person on the call, said, "Hello, Brother Chao."

"Arrived in Hai City?"

Sheng Chao’s voice was somewhat cool, naturally so, as only in front of Su Tutu would his inherent gentleness show.

"Yep, just got here."

"You’re terminating your contract with Le Entertainment tomorrow, right?"

"Yes."

"After terminating your contract, come to Shengshi Entertainment; the contract is ready for you, as is your next role with Tutu."

The President of Shengshi Entertainment himself was recruiting.

Bei Bei found it very aggressive!

Shengshi Entertainment was not only a major company in Hai City but also well-known in the industry.

The brand endorsements and ads for Su Tutu were all landed by Shengshi.

Including Movie Queen Nie Qing, her resources were exceptionally good, naturally, Shengshi had that strength in the industry.

Bei Bei thought Shengshi was indeed a great choice.

But then she thought, Boss Shen’s entertainment company, GK, wasn’t bad either.

And they were a couple; Sister Xi couldn’t possibly sign with another entertainment company, right?

But Bei Bei couldn’t really be sure at the moment.

Before Qiao Xi could respond, Shen Dang suddenly laughed coldly, "Xixi hasn’t said she’ll sign with your Shengshi."

Sheng Chao, hearing that annoying voice, got even colder: "...Shen Dang, how come you’re with Xixi?"

Shen Dang’s eyes lifted slightly; he was a bit smug: "I’m picking up my wife; what’s odd about that?"

Wife?

Was the man still dreaming?

Sheng Chao snorted with a laugh, "Not a former—"

"She’s not signing with Shengshi!"

Shen Dang interrupted him sharply.

Sheng Chao: "..."

Sheng Chao was amused by the irritation, "I was asking Xixi, not you; Xixi might not listen to you anyway."

The words clearly struck a nerve with Boss Shen.

Shen Dang looked up at Qiao Xi, his gaze brazen, arrogant, yet nonchalant, "Won’t you listen to me?"

Qiao Xi: "..."

What kind of thing was that to say?

"I haven’t made up my mind yet," Qiao Xi spoke with calm eyes.

Being wanted by two major entertainment companies might be the highlight of her acting career.

Sheng Chao almost sounded smug, "Xixi, the terms in Shengshi are very good, and you’ll be with Tutu. We can negotiate."

"Aren’t GK’s terms good?" Shen Dang retorted without courtesy.

Sheng Chao hummed defiantly, "One of them must be a little worse."

Qiao Xi with a cool expression, "...Maybe I should just let you two talk it out."

Shen Dang pursed his lips unwillingly, "You speak."

Only then did Qiao Xi address Sheng Chao on the call, "Brother Chao, I really haven’t decided yet; I’ll let you know when I do."

"Alright."

After hanging up with Sheng Chao, Qiao Xi put her phone back in her bag.

She faced the man beside her, her clear, cool eyes piercing: "Do you really want to sign me?"
