Chapter 263: Chapter 263 I’m really going to take a bath now. I’ll help you.

Qiao Xi’s eyelids lifted slightly as she looked at him and said, "Ah, no need, the person in charge here has arranged a car to pick us up."

"That’s fine then."

Bei Bei lingered at the door, hesitating whether to make a phone call or ring the doorbell.

With Boss Shen here, she wouldn’t disrupt their good time this early in the morning, would she?

Eventually, Bei Bei tentatively sent Qiao Xi a message.

Qiao Xi had just finished eating and without any delay, left with Bei Bei.

The two of them walked out of the hotel and got into the car that was waiting outside.

Qiao Xi met with L’Artisan’s founder, Mr. Karafer.

He was a deep-eyed man with a full head of white hair and blue eyes.

He was also a master in the entire fashion industry.

This time, the advertisement for Qiao Xi was personally crafted by him, which was something that had never happened before.

Even the L’Artisan advertisements that Jian Yi had shot were only managed by the team.

After some conversation, Karafer greatly admired Qiao Xi—this elderly gentleman could indeed churn out witty remarks one after another.

Though he maintained an indifferent expression on his face, he was humorous.

The makeup artist applied makeup to Qiao Xi, while Bei Bei stood on the side, her face filled with excitement: "Sister Xi, I’m so thrilled! I think I’m going to faint!"

This time she had actually met the legendary pioneer of fashion, following her Sister Xi—ah, she really wanted to brag about it!

Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh, "Hold steady, don’t panic, and don’t embarrass our country."

"Sister Xi, aren’t you excited?" Bei Bei was overwhelmingly enthusiastic.

Qiao Xi’s eyelashes fluttered, "Excited."

How could she not be?

Bei Bei covered her mouth and hopped around excitedly.

The makeup artist spent quite a long time on Qiao Xi’s makeup.

Her makeup and outfits were designed according to Mr. Karafer’s specifications.

Once everything was in place, they began a series of photo and advertising shoots.

Karafer was a perfectionist, which simply meant he was picky.

Although Qiao Xi had a strong sense of fashion, working with such a picky icon of the fashion world for the first time required some adjusting.

Yet, as the shoot progressed, she found her stride.

In the afternoon.

Qiao Xi followed the team to shoot on location.

Scene after scene was captured.

In the evening, as the first lights came on,

this city imbued with romance took on an aura of both splendor and elegance.

The night lights echoed each other, creating a beautiful scene amid the romantic atmosphere, with the brimming lights spilling over the bustling crowd.

It was like a dream.

On the crowded streets, Qiao Xi weaved through the people in a skirt with a train three meters long.

She turned back, her enchanting phoenix eyes gazing deeply into the lens—her brilliance was captivating in that moment.

Her gaze sparkled and shined.

Reflected in the streetside lights, her beautiful and ethereal face looked like a cold fairy descended to the mundane world, casting a light amidst humanity.

It was a beauty taken to the extreme, a unique and incomparable beauty.

Both high-end and elegant coexisted.

You run through the streets amidst a sea of people, yet I see only you.

And beauty is the sword you wield through the thorns!

With this sword in hand, march forward courageously, invincible!

After the shoot, Qiao Xi brought Bei Bei to a dinner organized by Steve.

By the time they returned to the hotel, it was after nine o’clock.

The car that had picked up Qiao Xi in the morning brought her back.

Bei Bei got out of the car first, then went to help Qiao Xi out.

She extended her hand but suddenly stopped midway.

A man’s hand reached out in front of her, catching her Sister Xi.

Upon recognizing it was Shen Dang, Bei Bei quickly stepped back.

Boss Shen had even come down to wait for Sister Xi!

When Qiao Xi saw Shen Dang, she was also taken aback, her brows fleeting, "What are you doing here?"

"I was worried about you."

"Whatever for?"

Though she said so, Qiao Xi’s lips still curved into a slight smile.

She had worn makeup all day and hadn’t removed it yet, her vintage red lips were quite captivating.

Shen Dang’s gaze swept over her lips, a trace of desire emerging but quickly suppressed by him.

He said coolly, "Let’s go, head back."

"Okay."

As Qiao Xi walked hand in hand with him, she forgot for a moment to pull away.

There is a happiness in being cared for.

Qiao Xi looked at Shen Dang’s perfect profile as they entered the elevator together, and when he looked her way, she just happened to avert her gaze.

Shen Dang openly looked at her side profile. "Have you eaten?"

"I have." She turned her head to meet his eyes. "And you?"

"Mm."

He replied in a low voice.

Qiao Xi went inside and said, "I’m going to remove my makeup."

Shen Dang’s gaze lingered on her face, then suddenly said, "Your face and eyelids are shiny, sparkling."

Shen Dang said this as he tapped on her eyelid with his finger.

Qiao Xi’s eyelashes fluttered involuntarily.

The long, thick lashes brushed against Shen Dang’s finger, sending a tingling sensation right to his heart.

The wildfire in his heart could not be contained.

But his hand was quickly swatted away by Qiao Xi.

She said exasperatedly, "That’s the highlighter!"

"I don’t understand."

Qiao Xi couldn’t be bothered with him and turned to go back to the bedroom and remove her makeup.

Shen Dang chuckled softly, took out a bottle of red wine from the cabinet, opened it, and poured it into a transparent tall glass.

After Qiao Xi finished removing her makeup and patted on some skincare products, she came out of the bedroom and saw Shen Dang in the living room drinking wine.

His broad frame occupied the corner of the sofa, exuding an arrogantly relaxed demeanor.

Qiao Xi walked past him to the water dispenser, poured herself a cup of water, leaned against the wall, and looked towards Shen Dang. Her gaze was inadvertently drawn to his open collar.

Qiao Xi felt he had an intentional element to it.

This was seduction, wasn’t it?

Wasn’t it?

Qiao Xi lowered her gaze and took a sip of water, conveniently diverting her eyes.

"I’ve finished my work and can return tomorrow."

Qiao Xi didn’t look at him but at the ripples in her cup.

Shen Dang’s voice was magnetic, "How about we go back the day after tomorrow? Another partner of my company is coming here on a business trip. It would be a good opportunity for me to meet him."

"That’s fine."

It was indeed tiring to keep traveling, so it wouldn’t hurt to rest one more day here.

"Do you want to come with me?"

Qiao Xi heard Shen Dang ask again. She was taken aback for a moment and looked at him, "What would I do with you?"

"What do you think?" Shen Dang asked leisurely, a hint of a smile in his flirtatious eyes.

That smile seemed somewhat ambiguous.

Qiao Xi flatly refused: "I won’t go."

Shen Dang said again, "We can meet my friend together."

"You go ahead; I want to rest for a day."

Qiao Xi’s gaze avoided his, and she refused again.

She wasn’t sure why.

"I’m going to take a shower and rest."

Qiao Xi took steps towards the bedroom, even her gait was a bit unsteady.

As she was about to push the door open and enter, Shen Dang caught her wrist.

His palm was warm, as was her skin.

Qiao Xi’s heart fluttered, and she glanced at Shen Dang with trembling eyes, "What is it?"

Shen Dang looked at her, half-smiling, "If you’re not going, why the hurry?"

Qiao Xi thought that he was seducing her, those unintentional seductions were even more dangerous.

Of course, she suspected it was deliberate on Shen Dang’s part.

But there was no evidence.

Qiao Xi struggled a bit: "I really am going to take a shower now."

"I’ll help you."

Qiao Xi: "???"
