My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day
Chapter 204: Has Boss Shen Forgotten How to Chase a Girlfriend?

Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Has Boss Shen Forgotten How to Chase a Girlfriend?

Shen Dang had always been adept at whatever he undertook, but for the first time, he faced uncertainty.

...

Chu Wan’s incident in the Shen Family didn’t leak a single bit of news; only a few insiders were aware.

Ran Jing had never expected that Old Madam could do such a thing; it was utterly inconceivable to her.

Could any person really do such a thing?

Yet, the incident had happened.

And on her own son, no less.

"Xixi’s divorce from Ah Dang must not be spoken of outside, I’m afraid the Qiao Family will think she has no backing and give her trouble."

This was what Old Master Shen had told Ran Jing.

Aside from regretting Shen Dang’s divorce from Qiao Xi, Ran Jing also pitied Qiao Xi.

She was the most wronged one in the entire affair.

After Ran Jing had a clear understanding of Shen Dang’s attitude toward Qiao Xi, she made a phone call to Qiao Xi.

"Xixi..."

Qiao Xi curved her lips downward, "Auntie."

Hearing this address, Ran Jing felt a pang in her heart, "Xixi, I’ve always thought of you as my daughter-in-law."

"I’m sorry, Auntie, Shen Dang and I deceived you all."

Qiao Xi had not anticipated that this matter would come to light in such a manner.

She knew the Shen Family truly hoped that she and Shen Dang would be well, but now she really didn’t know what to do.

Ran Jing felt even more sympathetic, "What’s there to be sorry about? Since it’s your decision, we won’t say much. I know everything you did was for Grandpa, Xixi, you’ve had it hard."

If it weren’t for Old Madam’s meddling, her son and Qiao Xi might have made it work one day.

So, she couldn’t help but resent Old Madam and Chu Wan.

"It’s nothing." Qiao Xi did it willingly and blamed no one, "How is Grandpa now?"

She was only concerned about Old Master Shen’s health.

Qiao Xi hadn’t called Old Master Shen since she returned.

"Don’t worry, Grandpa is fine, and about Old Madam..." Ran Jing paused, "Old Madam has been sent away from the main building."

Qiao Xi didn’t care what happened to Old Madam.

Ran Jing chuckled, "Anyway, Ah Dang didn’t do anything to wrong you, but it’s his own carelessness, attracting all those women. Auntie supports you not forgiving him too quickly!"

Qiao Xi: "..."

Perhaps this is what it’s like to have a real mom.

After speaking with Ran Jing, Qiao Xi didn’t feel much more relaxed; if anything, her heart felt even more in turmoil.

Sometimes, just when you think everything will go smoothly, an accident catches you entirely off guard.

Fortunately, tomorrow was the day to go abroad for the advertisement shoot, and she could temporarily leave these matters behind.

Qiao Xi returned to Sheng Birch Mansion, and although she hadn’t stayed there for months, it was still her own home, and she felt relaxed.

For dinner, Qiao Xi ordered takeout.

While she was eating, she received a call from an unfamiliar number.

Qiao Xi ignored it until the number called again, and then she slowly picked up.

"Qiao Xi."

"Who are you?" Qiao Xi frowned.

"It’s Chu Wan!"

Chu Wan gritted her teeth. Qiao Xi actually didn’t recognize her voice?

Qiao Xi’s demeanor cooled slightly, "Oh, it’s you. What do you want?"

Chu Wan let out a derisive laugh, "You must be very curious whether anything happened between Shen Dang and me that day, right?"

"Oh, I’m not curious."

Qiao Xi’s indifferent reply.

Chu Wan: "..."

How the hell was she supposed to respond to that?

Chu Wan spoke contemptuously, "Aren’t you scared?"

Qiao Xi was unbothered, "Since you’re so triumphant coming to me, just speak plainly."

"Shen Dang touched me that day!"

Chu Wan said through clenched teeth, yet her tone carried a sense of triumph as if she had Qiao Xi under her foot.

Qiao Xi didn’t reply.

Shen Dang was only disheveled that day; his pants were properly fastened, and he went on to get an injection at the hospital later. Whether or not anything happened was obvious.

She was clear in her heart.

And what she truly minded wasn’t that.

"Old Madam drugged us both and even placed aphrodisiacs in the room. You see how much Old Madam despises you; she didn’t hesitate to drug her own grandson. We were in the room for over half an hour; what should have happened has already happened. If you don’t believe me, I’ll send you something to see for yourself."

Chu Wan hung up after speaking.

In less than a minute, Qiao Xi received a multimedia message from Chu Wan.

It contained just one photo.

Qiao Xi opened it and her cold phoenix eyes instantly narrowed.

...

The following day.

Bei Bei drove to pick up Qiao Xi for the airport. At the airport, the two met up with Su Tutu and her assistant.

Su Tutu glanced behind Qiao Xi, "Didn’t you say Boss Shen would join us? Where is he?"

Seeing Qiao Xi alone prompted Su Tutu’s curiosity.

She still remembered a few days ago when Qiao Xi mentioned with a light and cheerful tone that Shen Dang would also go abroad with them.

Yet now, she didn’t see Boss Shen, who had started to become rather clingy.

"He’s not coming with us."

Qiao Xi said it nonchalantly.

Su Tutu was taken aback, "Oh? Why not?"

"Something happened between me and Shen Dang."

"What’s wrong?" Su Tutu asked, concerned.

The Shen Family had warned the Chu Family not to leak any information, so Su Tutu hadn’t heard anything.

Qiao Xi shook her head and smiled faintly, "Let’s not talk about him, let’s go through security."

The group went through the VIP channel and boarded the plane.

Su Tutu switched places with Bei Bei to sit next to Qiao Xi.

Leaning her shoulder against Qiao Xi’s, Su Tutu prodded, "What exactly happened with you and Boss Shen?"

Something definite had happened between the two.

Qiao Xi didn’t know how to explain, as such matters were difficult to talk about, and she didn’t want Su Tutu to worry.

She gave Su Tutu a reassuring smile, "I’m just reevaluating my relationship with Shen Dang."

Su Tutu was a bit confused, "Isn’t he pursuing you?"

Qiao Xi paused and then smiled at her, "I think maybe it’s better if we just stay as friends."

Su Tutu: "..."

She was completely baffled.

Before the plane took off, Su Tutu sent a question mark to Shen Dang and added, [Can’t Boss Shen even chase a girlfriend now?]

Of course, she received no reply from Shen Dang.

But Su Tutu naturally sided with her friend, "I won’t pry further, but I hope you always follow your heart."

After a flight of over ten hours, the plane arrived in Country F.

This was a city of romance.

Since Qiao Xi and Su Tutu were shooting advertisements at different locations, they parted ways after landing at the airport.

Qiao Xi and Bei Bei checked into a local star-rated hotel.

The advertising shoot would start the next morning.

After checking into the hotel, Qiao Xi didn’t leave her room.

She had dinner delivered directly from the hotel’s restaurant.

Qiao Xi was somewhat particular about her sleeping environment, so she didn’t sleep well that night and had bags under her eyes the next morning.

Bei Bei suggested, "Let’s put on a light makeup to cover those dark circles, Sister Xi."

"Okay."

Qiao Xi didn’t object.

Bei Bei lightly powdered her face.

Assessing the remarkable beauty of his Sister Xi, Bei Bei remarked, "Sister Xi, today you’re going to knock these foreigners dead!"
