Chapter 253: Chapter 253: You’ve Really Changed, You Never Used to Talk Like This

Wang Wen had hoped that Qiao Nan would earn money to support her in her old age, but she was eliminated just like that. Wang Wen hated Qiao Xi to the bone.

She thought of Qiao Zhenbin going to find Qiao Xi, and Qiao Xi’s appearance here must have been to admit her mistakes, so she grabbed her hand without explanation.

Qiao Xi looked up, her eyes were tea-colored, but at that moment, they emitted a deep black light.

A pair of phoenix eyes stared at Wang Wen like a sharp blade, carrying a chilling cold light.

"Let go."

Wang Wen was frightened by that look and subconsciously released Qiao Xi’s hand.

But then she thought, why should she be afraid of Qiao Xi? It was this despicable woman who harmed her daughter; she had to settle accounts with her!

"You go and apologize to Nannan right away!" Wang Wen forcefully pulled her up.

Taking advantage of her height, Qiao Xi looked down at Wang Wen disdainfully, threw off her hand, and coldly spat, "Don’t provoke me!"

"You..." Wang Wen was once again intimidated by Qiao Xi’s aura. Her lips trembled a few times as she bluffed, "You harmed Nannan so badly and you still think you’re right?"

Qiao Xi sat back down, leaning weakly against the back of the chair, her voice chilling, "Wang Wen, don’t force me to reveal what you’ve done."

Wang Wen smiled indifferently; she bent down and whispered in Qiao Xi’s ear, "Aren’t you talking about your dead, short-lived mother? So many years have passed, Qiao Xi, do you have any evidence?"

Qiao Xi lifted her eyelids to look at her, her gaze unfathomable.

Wang Wen straightened up, standing high above Qiao Xi, with an arrogant posture, "If you don’t kneel and apologize to Nannan today, and make it up to Nannan, I won’t let you off!"

Wang Wen had no idea that Chen Jiayan had uncovered all the good deeds she had done secretly.

Seeing Wang Wen’s fearless appearance, Qiao Xi tugged at her lips and coolly smiled, "Okay then, just wait, I’ll visit the Qiao Family tomorrow."

Wang Wen, thinking that Qiao Nan had just fallen asleep, did not entangle further with Qiao Xi.

Wang Wen sneered, "You know what is right; but if you don’t come tomorrow, then don’t blame me. After all, you’re a big star, and we’re just ordinary people. Barefoot is never afraid of those wearing shoes."

Qiao Xi gave her a smiling glance, her eyes and eyebrows captivating, as if she had retracted all the thorns on her body, she nodded, "You’re right, barefoot is not afraid of those wearing shoes. I will come. Wait for me at the Qiao Family tomorrow."

Wang Wen turned and walked toward Qiao Nan’s ward, her eyes poisoned with malice.

She was already scheming how to humiliate Qiao Xi tomorrow.

This despicable woman had finally fallen into her hands!

Qiao Xi lowered her gaze, her long eyelashes still, only the tea-colored light in her eyes emitting coldness.

The phone in her handbag suddenly rang. Qiao Xi blinked her eyelashes, took out the phone, and answered, "Sister Li."

Her voice was very calm, betraying no emotion.

Wang Li’s voice was joyful, feigning mystery, "Xixi, I have some good news for you. Guess what it is."

"What is it? I can’t guess."

Wang Li couldn’t contain her excitement, "Steve has replied to us, saying you’ve been selected as the spokesperson for L’Artisan’s perfume!"

Wang Li’s voice was unmistakably excited.

That was L’Artisan after all. Her precious was making her proud; Wang Li was over the moon.

"Good." Qiao Xi’s lips curved with a smile, but her eyes remained as still as dead water, "I know."

This was indeed good news.

She had successfully secured this endorsement through Yan Fanghua and Nie Qing. It was worth celebrating.

Wang Li continued, "Steve asked you to go abroad to shoot an advertisement one week from now. You just prepare well in the next few days. Don’t worry about other things!"

Qiao Xi responded, "Hmm."

By then, her face should also have healed.

Wang Li realized something seemed off about Qiao Xi’s mood after they had worked together for so long; Wang Li still understood her somewhat.

"Xixi, what’s wrong?" Wang Li asked sharply, "Did something happen?"

"It’s some family issues, but I’ve already resolved them."

Since it was a family matter, it wasn’t appropriate for Wang Li to probe further.

"That’s good, but this trip abroad might clash with the Dream Chasing Camp shooting schedule. I’ll discuss it with the show’s team."

Having Boss Shen around, this wouldn’t be an issue.

"Okay."

"I’m busy now, call me if you need anything."

Qiao Xi quietly watched the scene outside the glass window.

A set of steady footsteps approached from afar, stopping next to Qiao Xi.

His shadow enveloped her, shielding half the light.

The two of them, one standing and one sitting, unexpectedly matched in aura, creating a visually pleasing scene.

"Why are you sitting here?"

As Shen Dang spoke, a warm hand followed his voice, reaching out to her head and imparting warmth.

"Getting some fresh air here." Qiao Xi took his hand away, then looked up at him, "I just ran into Wang Wen, and Qiao Nan is also here."

Shen Dang’s eyes instantly turned cold, "What did she say?"

Qiao Xi smiled lightly, "Nothing much. Everything will be cleared up when I visit the Qiao Family tomorrow."

Shen Dang stared at her for a few seconds, "Shall we go back now?"

Qiao Xi curved her lips at him, "Hmm, thank you. I didn’t expect to still hold you up from work today."

Shen Dang looked at the smile on her lips and clicked his tongue displeased, "If you don’t feel like smiling, then don’t smile, especially since you look so ugly now."

Qiao Xi: "..."

Qiao Xi had no retort.

She hadn’t seen what she looked like now, but she could imagine it was quite disgraceful.

And her disgraceful image seemed to be frequently caught by Shen Dang.

Hence, she didn’t mind how wretched she looked at the moment.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips, her smile vanishing, "Then I won’t smile. Let’s go back."

Watching Qiao Xi’s figure walking ahead, Shen Dang quickly caught up, tilted his head to look at her, and lazily curved his lips, "Actually, that’s not true. Even looking the way you do now, you still look very beautiful."

No girl would like being called ugly.

Boss Shen making a hasty amendment.

She was so miserable, why did he still call her ugly at this time?

Mouthy!

Qiao Xi: "..."

The comment he made earlier seemed more credible.

Qiao Xi could hardly bear to look straight, "There’s no need to say things that are too fake, and it comes off rather greasy."

"Fake? Greasy?" Shen Dang wasn’t expecting such a response.

He kept pace with her.

He clicked his tongue, "You’re not me; how do you know what I say is false? My words are genuinely heartfelt."

Qiao Xi turned her head to look at Shen Dang, her expression somewhat ambiguous, "You really have changed; you never used to talk like this."

He had always been enigmatic, casual yet mysterious, how could he speak such heartfelt words.

Shen Dang, unable to help but smile, "I’m always telling the truth."

Qiao Xi: "..."
