My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day
Chapter 299: Are You Asking Me to Secretly Date You?

Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Are You Asking Me to Secretly Date You?

No reason, right? With Boss Shen’s looks and charisma, shouldn’t he have more than one girlfriend?

She suddenly asked this, and Shen Dang’s eyelids twitched.

He lazily said, "Even if ours is a contractual marriage, we’re still officially husband and wife. Are you suggesting I cheat within the marriage?"

Not to mention a girlfriend, he barely had any female friends around.

Back when he first started his business abroad, he was too busy to even think about such things.

Romance was something dispensable to him; love and marriage weren’t necessities in his life.

He had lived over twenty years with only Qiao Xi as his girlfriend before; he had always been single, very pure in heart.

It was only after meeting Qiao Xi that he realized he wasn’t really so pure-hearted.

He could feel his heart stir; he too had desires.

Just a typical man.

Qiao Xi pondered his words: "... a contractual marriage is kind of fake in a way."

Back then, their relationship was only slightly better than strangers. Even if he dated someone else, she wouldn’t be able to interfere.

Of course, she was just curious.

It wasn’t like she cared about his past.

"What’s fake?" Shen Dang couldn’t resist pinching her cute nose: "I am a man of moral principles."

Hmm, the girlfriend had started nitpicking.

But why was he so happy about it?

Qiao Xi slapped his hand, his little actions were becoming more frequent, and deserved a smack.

"Really?"

Her tone was plain.

Clearly, she didn’t believe it.

Shen Dang narrowed his eyes slightly, an air of displeasure tiptoeing through them: "Are you doubting me?"

Could he have dated without admitting it?

Qiao Xi smiled calmly, "I’m not doubting. I’m just asking you not to joke around."

Shen Dang pulled her closer, his hand naturally landing on the small of her back, his breath deep, hot, and suggestive.

His lips whispered into her ear, "I have only one girlfriend, and I plan to keep it that way."

His breath tickled her ear, sending an electric current cascading through her limbs.

Qiao Xi pushed him away, slightly embarrassed as she adjusted her hair.

Her hair tucked behind her ears, unveiling her flushed earlobes clearly visible under Shen Dang’s amused eyes.

Shen Dang grabbed her hand again, his eyes smiling: "Still don’t believe me?"

Qiao Xi rolled her eyes at him, innocent-faced: "What did I say? I didn’t say anything."

Watching her feign tranquility, Shen Dang raised an eyebrow, his tone indulgent: "Alright, you didn’t say anything. I’m just being upfront with you. I’m willing to disclose anything you wish to know."

Qiao Xi: "Pfft."

Shen Dang suddenly said, "I’m very happy."

Qiao Xi pressed her lips together, preventing a smile, feeling slightly happy herself.

A warm atmosphere gently flowed between them with time.

It was still raining outside, but the rain had lessened greatly, leaving only faint wet traces on the window.

Shen Dang led her to the couch, suddenly pulling out his phone, and snapped a photo of their clasped hands.

Qiao Xi frowned: "What are you doing?"

Shen Dang calmly responded: "Going public."

Having a girlfriend, he might as well show off a bit, right?

Let everyone know Qiao Xi is his girl.

No one should think about making a move on her.

Qiao Xi held his hand: "No!"

Shen Dang lifted his eyelids to look at her.

His gaze was always captivating, but now it was shadowed with deep emotions, a touch of sharpness, and frustration.

Qiao Xi felt a bit guilty.

"We’ve just established our relationship, I think it’s inappropriate to go public now, especially since we just clarified a rumor recently. Wouldn’t it be contradicting if we went public now? Let’s wait for the right moment."

She explained softly.

Mainly, she wasn’t sure if their relationship could last till the end.

She feared sudden changes.

She preferred to wait until things were stable.

Shen Dang understood her hesitation and didn’t press her.

But he still felt aggrieved: "I just wanted to post it on my social circle, can’t I even do that?"

Social circle, huh...

Shen Dang tucked her hair behind her ear, pinching her earlobe a few times: "I guarantee it won’t reach the media. And people don’t even know we’re divorced. Are you saying I should secretly date you?"

By the end, his tone had taken on a note of displeasure.

She had been married to Shen Dang for two years without anyone daring to leak it to the media, so Qiao Xi trusted his promise.

Moreover, seeing it from his perspective, it did seem a bit unfair to him.

He had pursued her for so long, perhaps it was time to give him a chance to make it official.

"Social circle is fine," she relented.

Shen Dang then smiled contentedly, leaning in to peck her lips: "Good girl."

His breath intoxicatingly delightful.

Qiao Xi couldn’t help glaring at him, but he had already looked away.

From her angle, she could see his lips curling up in joy, thin and slightly red.

Qiao Xi thought not only were his lips pleasant, but they were also downright perfect, flawless.

No wonder this man had such charm to turn the world upside down.

Shen Dang, holding one of her hands, used the other to post the photo of their entwined fingers on his social circle.

Shen Dang’s social circle was rather clean, he had only reposted some financial news and that was it.

Let alone posting daily updates.

Thus, when his friends saw it, they were shocked—

[Tang Honghe: Wow, did you finally win her over? Congrats, Brother Dang for achieving your wish!]

[Qu Jiashu: Damn, impressive! Firstly, congrats!]

[President Chen: Why didn’t Boss Shen also feature his lady?]

[President Li: Ah, congratulations, Boss Shen.]

[Sheng Chao: You actually won her over? Do I still have a chance to prepare a red envelope?]

Su Tutu replied to Sheng Chao’s comment: [You must prepare! Boss Shen, hurry up and give Xixi a proper wedding, I want to be a bridesmaid!]

Shen Dang placed the phone in front of Qiao Xi, raising an eyebrow: "Your sister wants to be a bridesmaid, do you want to let her fulfill this wish."

Qiao Xi glanced at his phone screen. They had many mutual friends; Qiao Xi saw a long list of congratulatory messages.

Qiao Xi: "..."

Just a bunch of people loving the drama.

Qiao Xi quickly changed the subject and urged: "It’s getting late, you should really go."

"Can’t I stay the night here?"

How come now that our relationship is official, I can’t enjoy the benefit of staying over?

Qiao Xi firmly responded: "No!"

Can’t let him overstep his boundaries right from the start.

"...Alright then."

What else could he do?

Shen Dang, wanting Qiao Xi to get some good rest, didn’t persist anymore. He put on his shoes and left.

Qiao Xi watched him leave.

After he was gone, she closed the door and walked back, a faint smile gracing her face, adding a glow to her complexion.

Her phone vibrated a few times.

Su Tutu sent a message:[Sister, your Boss Shen is going to make me die of laughter.]
