My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day
Chapter 246: Will You Keep Saying No?

Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Will You Keep Saying No?

Qiao Xi gave a thumbs up, "Mmm, more reliable than a man."

"If I weren’t married, you could marry me, what do you need a man for?" Su Tutu threw a flirtatious glance at her, "Would it be too much to marry a fairy back home?"

"Very much so."

Su Tutu burst into laughter.

Sadly, in the end the fairy still became some man’s bargain!

After buying the bags, the two went to browse clothing stores.

Qiao Xi didn’t have anything she wanted to buy.

Su Tutu saw a men’s clothing store and dragged Qiao Xi inside.

"I’m buying a shirt for Brother Chao."

"Then you look around."

Qiao Xi sat down on the guest sofa.

Su Tutu went to select clothes. With her good taste and knowledge of Sheng Chao’s sizes, she quickly decided on the shirt to buy.

But once a woman starts shopping, it’s hard to stop. After buying the shirt, there’s a need to buy matching pants, ties, and tie clips.

Qiao Xi watched Su Tutu’s busy yet contented figure and slowly lowered her gaze, a smile gradually filling her eyes.

While the salesperson was wrapping things up, Su Tutu sat next to Qiao Xi, probing, "Sis, how are things going with Boss Shen now?"

She didn’t know whether Boss Shen had successfully pursued her sister or not.

Qiao Xi tapped her fingers on her knees and, upon hearing the question, turned to Su Tutu with a smile, "Before I left, he said to wreck your plans and to take me out to eat."

Su Tutu pondered her words, then suddenly gasped, "You keep dragging him along, don’t agree to his pursuit so quickly!"

It took her so much effort to arrange to hang out with her sister, and Boss Shen could say such things? Is he even human?

If that’s the case, she couldn’t blame her for showing off in front of her sister.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and smiled faintly, "Okay."

Su Tutu leaned her head on Qiao Xi’s shoulder, sighing, "Indeed, a good sister is reliable."

Qiao Xi patted her shoulder.

Su Tutu straightened up and asked her seriously, "Sis, seriously, when do you plan to agree to Boss Shen?"

Qiao Xi thought for a while and said somewhat troubled, "I always feel it’s not the right time yet. I’d also like to know how long he can hold on."

Simply put, Qiao Xi liked Shen Dang, but she didn’t have that hundred percent sense of security yet.

Love can make people brave, but it can also make them hesitate.

Su Tutu sighed, "Sis, even though Boss Shen can be a bit of a dog sometimes, I still hope you’ll be braver."

Qiao Xi squeezed her hand, "Got it."

The salesclerk came over, "Miss Su, your clothes are all packed."

"Tutu, I’ll go pay."

"Mmm."

They continued shopping until mealtime came, as they felt hungry and found a place to eat in the mall.

Eventually heading to the cinema.

They chose a newly released movie to watch.

By the time the movie was over, it was already past nine o’clock.

Su Tutu followed Qiao Xi out of the mall and saw Sheng Chao, who had come to pick up his wife.

He stood on the bustling street corner, the brilliant neon lights shining on his cool, cultured demeanor.

But the moment he saw Su Tutu, his gaze softened instantly.

"Wife."

Su Tutu ran towards Sheng Chao and flung herself into his arms, "Husband, you came so quickly."

Sheng Zhui bent down to kiss her, his hand tight around her waist, whispering in her ear, "When have I not been quick?"

The two clung to each other in public as if no one else was around.

Su Tutu didn’t care about her celebrity status either.

Living freely.

Qiao Xi, while envying them, turned her gaze away and smiled faintly, "You two head back. I’ll take a taxi home."

"No need for you to take a taxi," Sheng Chao said.

"Beep beep—"

Someone honked a horn.

Shen Dang pushed open the car door and got out, his gaze locking straight onto Qiao Xi, "Come here."

The two simple words floated with the breeze into Qiao Xi’s ears.

Qiao Xi hesitated for a moment, not expecting Shen Dang to have arrived.

She hadn’t told him she was here, had she?

Thinking of Sheng Chao’s presence, Qiao Xi quickly figured out the reason.

Su Tutu felt Boss Shen wasn’t too bad after all and winked at Qiao Xi, "Xixi, you go back with Boss Shen. I’m leaving with my husband now."

"Okay."

Qiao Xi sat in Shen Dang’s car, watching the neon lights pass by the window and then turned her attention back to Shen Dang, "Actually, you didn’t have to come pick me up at this time."

"If I didn’t come to get you, I wouldn’t see you for two days, and I’d miss you."

Boss Shen’s sweet nothings now came effortlessly.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips, "If you don’t see me, you don’t see me, you..."

Shen Dang said with a taunting tone, "How else am I supposed to make myself felt?"

Qiao Xi, "..."

She really wanted to ask him if doing this made him tired, but when the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back.

She had always felt that relationships between people are fragile, and the current her dared not to touch them.

Shen Dang drove Qiao Xi to the building’s entrance.

"Thanks for driving me back, I’ll go up then."

Qiao Xi looked at him, withdrew her gaze, and softly reminded, "Be careful when driving back."

Shen Dang’s gaze deepened as he watched her, "Is a ’thank you’ all?"

Qiao Xi looked up slightly, "What else do you want?"

His shirt collar was habitually open a few buttons, exuding an inherent laziness and nobility. At this moment, his gaze might not be so innocent.

Perhaps it was because of the nighttime, but Qiao Xi felt the depth in his eyes was excessively intense.

Shen Dang didn’t give her an answer, rather he asked with a profound meaning, "Can I do whatever I want?"

"...You’re getting very cheeky now, plus being unreasonable."

"Mmm."

He actually answered with a "Mmm"?

Qiao Xi was about to smile but didn’t, "I’m leaving."

As Qiao Xi opened the door to get out, she was caught by the wrist and pulled back by Shen Dang.

She looked at Shen Dang with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

In a flash, she was embraced by Shen Dang.

The familiar hold, the familiar scent of dark agarwood, made Qiao Xi’s heart flutter for a moment.

Shen Dang’s gaze darkened a bit more, "I just wanted to hug you, nothing else."

Qiao Xi tried to pull away from the embrace, but he held the back of her head with a domineering touch.

"Still haven’t hugged you enough," Shen Dang said in a husky voice.

Qiao Xi’s heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, and it was still climbing.

As if it wanted to leap out of her chest.

Even though he was just holding her and hadn’t done anything deeper...

Qiao Xi felt this man was like a slow poison, gradually seeping into her organs and quietly consuming all her rationality. When she realized something was amiss, it was already too late for her.

Qiao Xi wondered if she could resist his approach.

In a daze, she was held by him like that.

"If..." Qiao Xi started slowly and softly, "If I keep refusing you like this, won’t you get tired?"

She eventually asked what she wanted to know.

Her emotional thinking compelled her to say what was deep in her heart.

"Will you keep refusing?"
