My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day

Chapter 310: Chapter 309: This Really Makes Me Curious About Teacher Qiao’s Husband

Boss Shen was somewhat dissatisfied when he heard this answer, "There were several times when you didn’t pick up my phone calls."

Qiao Xi found it amusing, "Several times?"

At that time, she was filming and couldn’t receive his calls at all.

However, whenever she got back from filming, Bei Bei would tell her with an ambiguous look that she had missed calls, and Qiao Xi knew without guessing who they were from.

Afterward, she would call Shen Dang back when she was free.

Even when she didn’t have much time, she would send a message to tell him she was just filming.

Qiao Xi felt that a normal couple should maintain a balance of mutual interaction to avoid one-sided effort, like performing a solo act.

Shen Dang had put in the effort, so she should respond accordingly.

After all, they were currently in a long-distance relationship and could only communicate via phone calls.

Shen Dang lazily clicked his tongue, "Around seven or eight times."

He still remembers it quite clearly?

When Qiao Xi heard his words, she couldn’t help but laugh, her eyebrows and eyes conveying helplessness, "That many, you’re exaggerating."

Shen Dang said with certainty, "There were, I remember."

Qiao Xi laughed out, her soft laughter echoing in the car, light and airy, "You’re being unreasonable."

"Mm," he said, "I missed you."

A soft and gentle love phrase suddenly came through.

Word by word, it seemed to strike right at the tip of Qiao Xi’s heart.

His alluring voice caused a slight tremor in her heart.

Qiao Xi’s ears burned.

Why did he start talking like this out of nowhere?

Weren’t they still in the middle of confronting each other?

Qiao Xi dropped her head, propping her cheek with her hand, her eyelashes fluttering a few times.

There were others in the car besides her and Bei Bei, and thankfully she was wearing headphones, so no one else could hear Boss Shen’s words.

However, with everyone present, Qiao Xi felt self-conscious, as if everyone had heard.

Seeing Qiao Xi silent, Shen Dang’s deep voice leisurely asked, "What about you? Do you miss me?"

Did she miss him the way he missed her?

"No!"

Qiao Xi denied it subconsciously.

Her voice also unintentionally rose a bit.

Even though they were boyfriend and girlfriend, Qiao Xi still couldn’t openly say such sweet nothings over the phone.

Especially with other people around.

Qiao Xi’s voice was cool and clear, but carried a slight coquettish tone, half complaining and half accusing, emitting a different kind of charm.

This tone was unlike her usual way of speaking.

So much so that it made Shu Jing and Zhong Xinran both look over at her.

Surprise showed in both of their eyes.

Qiao Xi’s gaze was half-lowered, her thick lashes masking the emotions at the bottom of her eyes.

Shen Dang’s voice was leisurely, carrying a muted laughter, "I know you’re thinking of me, it’s been a month, and I really miss you."

Because of the headphones, it was as if he were whispering in her ear.

The man’s voice, already pleasant to the ear, sounded even more mellow and captivating.

It teasingly plucked at her heartstrings.

Qiao Xi: "..."

Could he not say these things over the phone?

Qiao Xi pressed her lips together uneasily, "Let’s talk business."

Shen Dang seriously said, "Missing you is the business."

This was never-ending.

Qiao Xi feigned calm, "I’m hanging up."

Shen Dang hurriedly stopped her, "Don’t hang up just yet, be good, you just picked up my call, and we haven’t even chatted for a bit."

His voice carried a pleading tone.

Qiao Xi was just saying that, she didn’t even have the motion to hang up.

Her voice crisp and cold, "Then talk about something serious."

Shen Dang chuckled softly and asked, "Are you on your way to Mo City now?"

Qiao Xi had told him about going to Mo City the night before.

"Yes, in the car," Qiao Xi said, "I’ll head straight to Mo City as soon as I get to the airport."

Qiao Xi looked out of the car window; the outside was still a wilderness, and there weren’t many cars on the road.

The director only gave her a few days off, and Qiao Xi didn’t have the time to go to Hai City, plus flying back and forth was tiring.

While she was in Sucheng, she had already taken leave twice, two days each time, to go back to Hai City to record "Dream Chasing Camp."

Time was tight; she simply didn’t have the opportunity to meet with Shen Dang, and when she went back, he happened to be on a business trip out of town.

Their schedules just didn’t align.

Qiao Xi’s priorities were clear; instead of going back to Hai City now for a brief encounter with Shen Dang, she might as well wait until after filming.

Shen Dang murmured a low "mm."

Qiao Xi heard it was very quiet on his side, without any other sounds, and couldn’t help but ask, "What about you, what are you doing now?"

Shen Dang said succinctly, "Going to see someone."

Qiao Xi thought he was going to meet someone for business, so she didn’t ask any further.

She said, "Then you go ahead and be busy."

Shen Dang’s voice came across as lazy, "I’m not busy."

Qiao Xi was taken aback, "Didn’t you say you were going to meet someone?"

"Not in a hurry to meet," he said with a meaningful curve on his lips, "I’ll meet them eventually."

Qiao Xi: "..."

What kind of cryptic talk was that?

Was he teasing her?

Everyone on the bus was listening to her talk; Qiao Xi felt that it was time to end the topic, so she said, "Alright, we’ll talk more when we’re free."

It would be several more hours before they reached the airport, and Qiao Xi needed to conserve her phone’s battery.

Plus, she got up very early in the morning and needed to catch up on some sleep.

"Okay," Shen Dang’s voice was low, "let me know when you get to Mo City Airport."

"Mm."

Qiao Xi hung up the call and then put away her headphones.

Zhong Xinran turned her face to look at Qiao Xi, full of curiosity, "Teacher Qiao, were you talking to your husband on the phone?"

"Yes," Qiao Xi glanced at Zhong Xinran with her phoenix eyes, a cool smile on her face, "I was talking to my husband on the phone."

Bei Bei sneaked a glance at Qiao Xi.

Sister Xi, a recognized actress for her acting skills, mentioned her husband without blushing or skipping a beat.

But Boss Shen would be so happy if he heard Sister Xi saying the word ’husband.’

"No wonder," Qiao Xi raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

Zhong Xinran covered her mouth and giggled, "It’s just that Teacher Qiao’s tone when talking to her husband on the phone is so different from usual."

"Is it?"

Qiao Xi responded with a nonchalant smile.

This Zhong Xinran seemed quite attentive to her.

"Yes, yes!" Zhong Xinran appeared oblivious to Qiao Xi’s suddenly subdued expression, her tone affected and unwitting, "Like a little woman, it makes me really curious about Teacher Qiao’s husband; so mysterious."

No one understood who Qiao Xi’s secret backer really was.

Talking about a husband, it might well be her sugar daddy.

Otherwise, how could she have gotten all these resources?

Bei Bei rolled her eyes and said with an amused look, "Teacher Zhong, why are you so curious about other people’s private matters?"

"Doesn’t everyone have curiosity?"

"Oh, really?" Bei Bei asked playfully, "Is Teacher Shu also curious?"

Shu Jing was resting with her eyes closed.

Hearing Bei Bei’s question, Shu Jing opened her eyes, smiling faintly, "If I said I’m not curious, then am I not human?"

Bei Bei quickly waved her hand, laughing, "Of course not, but curiosity should be about the right things; we’re talking about Sister Xi’s husband now."

Qiao Xi smiled silently, not objecting to Bei Bei’s comments.

Zhong Xinran had been snooping on her private life; Qiao Xi had long been put off by it.

"Oh, then I’m not curious about that," Shu Jing stated and then closed her eyes again.

She was genuinely not curious.

It wasn’t her business anyway.

Zhong Xinran secretly glared at Shu Jing.

Such a hypocritical woman, claiming not to be curious was probably the biggest lie of all.
