Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Shen Dang Now Won’t Even Let You Make Friends With The Opposite Sex

Could she have really seen a fairy?

Some people are created just to demonstrate the diversity of humanity.

Soon, the news of Qiao Xi’s appearance at GK spread throughout the entire company.

While others were still pondering whether they could chance upon the Goddess of Divine Beauty themselves, Qiao Xi had already entered Wang Li’s office.

Wang Li, too, had an independent office in GK, bright and clean with floor-to-ceiling windows that offered a view of the clouds outside.

"Agent Wang, good to see you."

Qiao Xi smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling, and took off her beret, placing it aside.

Wang Li chuckled, "Have a seat. I thought you’d come later. I didn’t expect you to arrive so early."

"Shen Dang gave me a ride on his way here."

"The two of you are getting along better and better." Wang Li couldn’t help but feel happy for her.

Her precious charge must secure her position as the Main Empress firmly; she couldn’t let anyone take that away.

Qiao Xi laughed lightly, "Let’s not talk about us. Let’s get to the point."

"How are you feeling after just finishing filming?" asked Wang Li with concern.

"Not too bad." Suddenly, Qiao Xi remembered, "Sister Li, has ’Blossoms Old Dreams’ set a release date?"

"It will be released this year, but the specific time hasn’t been announced yet. I’ll let you know when the time comes."

Qiao Xi nodded her head.

"Now that you’ve signed with GK, many brands are reaching out, and there are also some new endorsements, including a few TV and movie scripts. The company is leaning its resources toward you. What are your plans?" Wang Li inquired.

"I want to take a break for a while."

Non-stop filming can take its toll.

"I was actually thinking the same thing; you’ve been shooting continuously and really should take a break. Just handle an endorsement ad here and there, or you can start by looking at some scripts and decide from there."

"I’ll take a look."

"Here they are."

Wang Li stood up to pour two glasses of water.

After reading through a few scripts, Qiao Xi didn’t feel like accepting any of them. Despite being big productions, they didn’t quite suit her.

Closing the scripts, Qiao Xi crossed her hands on top of the pages, smiled slightly, and looked toward Wang Li.

Wang Li leaned against the desk, looking down at Qiao Xi, "There’s also a new talent show hoping you could be a special guest. It’s a comfortable position, of course, you won’t offend people as a judge would. You just occasionally share your opinions, and if you do well, you might even sing the OST for your own movies in the future."

Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh, "Are you planning to develop my career in all directions now? You’re getting ambitious, agent!"

"Now that GK is all yours, it’s time to raise all your abilities and add something more to your career profile."

Wang Li patted her shoulder.

Qiao Xi was still young, and naturally, Wang Li hoped she could do even better.

Even though Qiao Xi leaned toward the big screen, she also had a face that was perfect for a girl group, beautiful enough to be the center.

Her debut album, released not long after her career began, had won awards. Her fans might have forgotten about her music, but Wang Li hadn’t.

Goddess of Divine Beauty might reveal some surprises if it were audited.

Wang Li continued, "And this talent show won’t take too much of your time. Afterwards, you can still take on other roles if you wish."

Qiao Xi thought for a moment, "Let’s put it on hold, but don’t reject it for now."

Wang Li took a sip of water and set his glass down, "Alright, the program is still in the planning stages, so there’s no rush."

"There is one endorsement, though, that requires shooting abroad, a clothing brand, a week from now." Wang Li flipped through the advertisement contents to show her.

"Let’s take it."

Su Tutu was also scheduled to shoot an advert abroad; they could go together.

After discussing more work-related matters with Wang Li, Qiao Xi planned to return to Sheng Birch Mansion.

Chu Xiuyun called her.

"Xixi."

Qiao Xi frowned, "What is it?"

"Let’s have lunch together at noon."

Qiao Xi’s voice was cool, "There’s no need for lunch, just get to the point."

Chu Xiuyun’s voice held a mocking smile, "Has Shen Dang now forbidden you from making male friends?"

"What does this have to do with Shen Dang? I don’t want any entanglements with you. I’ve made myself very clear already."

The Chu Xiuyun of the past wasn’t as mad as he was now.

"Shen Dang has taken over Qiao Group. Xixi, he doesn’t care about you at all. Doesn’t part of you hate him for it?"

Chu Xiuyun was trying to drive a wedge between them, "I’ve said it before, Shen Dang can’t possibly have any true feelings for you. If he had, he wouldn’t have done this. When will you see him for who he is? If you’re afraid of blame from Old Master Shen, I’ll talk to him myself about the divorce. I don’t want you to suffer!"

"You’ve got the wrong idea, Chu Xiuyun." Qiao Xi said, "Shen Dang taking over Qiao Group and whether his feelings for me are genuine are two separate matters. Besides, I don’t care at all about Qiao Group. You don’t understand me. That’s all to it."

"You barely know Shen Dang; I understand you better than he does!"

Qiao Xi found it somewhat laughable, "What you understand might only be your perception of Qiao Xi. I’m very happy with Shen Dang right now, so don’t worry. And don’t go saying anything to Grandfather. The lesson Shen Dang taught you last time should have been enough."

Qiao Xi hung up the phone.

Chu Xiuyun’s gaze was piercing, with a stubborn madness, his expression gloomy as if a storm was approaching.

Chu Wan asked, "What did Qiao Xi say?"

Chu Xiuyun didn’t answer, instead asking, "How are things with Old Madam Shen?"

"How could they be? She’s insane, she can’t help me win over Shen Dang at all. I trusted her too much before; it was a complete waste of time!"

It reached the point where she didn’t even want to go to the Shen Family anymore, useless old woman!

Chu Xiuyun narrowed his eyes.

From Qiao Xi’s recent words, he deduced two things.

Qiao Xi claiming she and Shen Dang had a good relationship was likely true.

Her indifference to Qiao Group was also probably true.

After all, many people knew that Qiao Xi’s relationship with Qiao Zhenbin wasn’t close.

Yet, Shen Dang had boldly taken over Qiao Group, obviously not caring what Qiao Xi might think of the move.

However, he had also developed feelings for Qiao Xi, which was very abnormal.

Thinking of Qiao Xi now being signed to Shen Dang’s entertainment company made Chu Xiuyun very uncomfortable.

He had never expected their relationship to progress this far.

A fierce look appeared in Chu Xiuyun’s eyes, and his voice was bitterly cold, devoid of any warmth, "Ah Wan, go tell Old Madam that Shen Dang took over Qiao Group for Qiao Xi. Old Madam will certainly be more anxious than you."

He couldn’t let Qiao Xi and Shen Dang continue to develop their relationship.

"Is that true?"

Chu Wan was surprised. Could Shen Dang have really done that for Qiao Xi?

Chu Xiuyun scoffed coldly, "Whether it’s true or not, the fact that Shen Dang took over Qiao Group is enough."

Old Madam didn’t want Shen Dang to be with Qiao Xi; she wouldn’t care about details.

"Alright, I got it."

Chu Xiuyun stared at her emotionlessly, "If you fail this time and end up achieving nothing, Shen Dang will never acknowledge your existence!"

Chu Wan clenched her fist.

She must have Shen Dang!
