Chapter 221: Chapter 221: Qiao Xi, How Can Your Hair Be So Shiny

Seeing that Qiao Xi didn’t make a sound, Shen Dang closed his eyes again, leaning his tall figure lazily on the back of the seat.

If he were in ancient times, he would also be a nonchalant prince with devastating charm and immense power, his unattainable demeanor making people feel out of reach.

The light from the streetlamps slid over the car, casting shadowy, fleeting light inside, and with Qiao Xi’s impulsive words now out, the rest of the journey seemed even more quiet.

Outside the hotel, Qiao Xi parked the car, and the engine was turned off.

Seeing that Shen Dang made no movement, Qiao Xi turned her head, her phoenix eyes gazing at the man hidden in darkness: "We’re here."

The light from the street diffused over, just barely revealing his handsome profile, casting a mysterious silhouette.

Shen Dang opened his eyes to look at her, pressing a slender finger to his temple: "I’m feeling a bit tipsy."

Qiao Xi’s mouth moved slightly, just as she was about to say something, Shen Dang pushed the car door open and got out.

"Shen Dang, you really are a tank when it comes to drinking, aren’t you?"

Qiao Xi followed Shen Dang into the hotel, glanced at the man beside her, her voice indifferent.

The corner of Shen Dang’s lips curved: "If you don’t drink with me, I can only finish it all by myself, otherwise, it’s a waste."

His breath was hot with the scent of alcohol.

Qiao Xi’s delicate brow furrowed slightly: "Are you blaming me?"

"I wouldn’t dare blame you." Shen Dang chuckled lightly.

Shen Dang’s expression was steady, his pacing unhurried; seeing how clear-headed he was to speak such words, she knew he wasn’t drunk.

The two of them were staying on the same floor.

The elevator ascended steadily.

Shen Dang leaned against the elevator wall, appearing utterly relaxed: "This bit of red wine isn’t enough to get me drunk."

Qiao Xi lowered her gaze, the overhead light enveloping her, making her hair shimmer.

The so-called peerless beauty was exquisite from head to toe.

Shen Dang also caught a faint fragrance.

Qiao Xi gave a half-smile: "Yes, Boss Shen can really hold his liquor."

Shen Dang’s eyes twinkled slightly, and he smiled: "Qiao Xi, why is your hair so shiny?"

Boss Shen’s change of topic caught her off guard.

"???"

A hint of confusion flickered in Qiao Xi’s eyes. What nonsense was this man talking about?

Shen Dang fingered the tips of her hair, staring intently: "See, it’s soft and shiny."

Qiao Xi: "..."

She wanted to take back what she just said about him being sober; perhaps he really was drunk.

Some people don’t show it when they’ve had too much to drink.

Boss Shen seemed to be one of those people.

She found it amusing, barely lifting her lips: "Do you need me to recommend the shampoo I use to you?"

"Sure." Shen Dang replied briskly.

"..."

After some deliberation, it was determined that Boss Shen was indeed drunk.

The elevator dinged open, and Qiao Xi was the first to step out, moving gracefully.

"Shen Dang, do you still know which room you’re staying in?" Qiao Xi asked the man walking beside her.

Boss Shen chuckled at her slightly silly question.

Shen Dang pulled out his room key as he was about to swipe it, then suddenly heard Qiao Xi’s voice: "Shen Dang..."

Their rooms were directly opposite each other.

Shen Dang turned his head upon hearing her, seeing Qiao Xi purse her lips slightly, he raised his eyebrows lightly: "Hmm?"

The intonation was teasing, his voice magnetic and enticing.

The corridor lights dimmed, and Qiao Xi looked at his face, half-obscured by darkness, and felt a calmness take over her heart.

Perhaps it was the dim lighting that gave her the courage to not have to lay bare her emotions before him.

And so she laid bare her thoughts before him.

"After the work here is done, you should go back to Hai City, and after I’m done promoting my movie, we’ll have a proper talk about us."

Qiao Xi’s cool voice echoed in this small space.

Shen Dang turned fully to her, leaning his back against the door, his head lowered, exuding an alluring, privileged laziness.

At this moment, aside from them, there was no one else in the hallway. A breeze blew through the safety passage, and Shen Dang’s deep voice mingled with the wind, casual and tempting: "Why can’t we talk about it now?" He had been waiting for a long time.

"You’ve had too much to drink..." Qiao Xi paused, her voice cool and still: "I’m also afraid of being distracted, you go back to Hai City tomorrow."

Shen Dang was silent for a long while, and the air around them seemed as still as water.

In the darkness, Shen Dang’s serene laughter sounded, and he agreed: "Alright, I’ll listen to you."

His words were indulgent.

And as far as she remembered, this wasn’t the first time Shen Dang had said that phrase.

The tips of Qiao Xi’s ears warmed slightly: "Get some sleep early."

After Qiao Xi swiped her card and entered her room, she closed the door behind her.

Her heart seemed to race with his words, unable to calm down, she leaned back against the door panel, lifted her chin, and exhaled softly, her tense mood slowly relaxing.

In the hallway, the low and hoarse laughter of Shen Dang spilled out from his room, especially enticing on this night.

Shen Dang stood in the corridor for a while, his eyes fixed on Qiao Xi’s door without moving, until he heard some noise by the elevator, then he turned and entered his room, his lips still curved in a smile.

After that night, Qiao Xi and Shen Dang went their separate ways, each busy with their own things.

Besides following the production team for promotions, Qiao Xi also took the time to shoot for a magazine and two covers, spending the rest of her time out of town.

When the publicity work of the production team temporarily paused, it was already the middle to late April.

When Qiao Xi returned to Hai City, Shen Dang just happened to be away from Hai City.

Boss Shen had gone abroad for a business trip.

Wang Li had previously mentioned to her about the talent show starting, and Wang Li had secured this job for her.

The first season of "Dream Chasing Camp" was a talent show launched by the production company, and Qiao Xi would appear as a special invited guest at the recording site.

Until the day before the premiere, the program and the team kept Qiao Xi and the other four judges as a mystery.

They did not disclose any information.

Even though it was a talent show for new artists, it had spread all over the internet even before its premiere.

Though it was a talent show for newcomers, in reality, the participants were pushed forward by various entertainment companies.

This season, a total of one hundred people were vying for a seven-member group slot.

However, before that, some of the contestant’s information was leaked.

For example, one of them was a newcomer pushed by Shengshi Entertainment, and this newcomer was also the cousin of Movie Queen Nie Qing.

Le Entertainment also introduced a few newcomers.

But who they introduced, Qiao Xi didn’t pay attention.

At two o’clock in the afternoon, Wang Li drove Qiao Xi to the recording site.

Wang Li said to her, "It’s uncertain when the recording will end, I’ll have Bei Bei wait here for you."

Qiao Xi nodded: "Okay."

Qiao Xi met with the judges backstage.

The judges had been in touch privately before the launch of "Dream Chasing Camp," but they didn’t know the special invited guest was Qiao Xi.

So much so that when they saw Qiao Xi, they were instantly surprised.

"—Goddess of Divine Beauty?"

The guest star turned out to be Qiao Xi.
