My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day -
Chapter 339 - 338
Chapter 339: Chapter 338
Xie Baola had always been straightforward, so it was rare for her to hesitate like this. Qiao Xi found it strange but couldn’t figure out why.
Before she could ask in detail, Xie Baola made an excuse about being busy and hung up the phone.
...
Boss Shen was generous, arranging the dinner at Tan Garden.
The moment the news spread that Boss Shen was treating everyone to a meal, Tang Honghe and Qu Jiashu, two shameless guys, crowded in.
All Shen Dang wanted was some alone time with Qiao Xi. Seeing the group around him, his temples throbbed annoyingly.
Yet, when he turned his head and saw the faint smile on his girlfriend’s lips, he felt it was all worth it.
Fine then.
As long as she’s happy.
After everyone had finished eating, Shen Dang was eager to whisk Qiao Xi away.
Qiao Xi was slightly startled by his urgent movements, "What’s going on?"
Shen Dang’s deep eyes seemed fixed on her face, "Let’s go, I’m taking you somewhere."
"Tsk, tsk," Tang Honghe couldn’t help but tease, "Brother Dang seems in a rush. I bet he’s been impatient with us all evening."
Shen Dang gave him a cool glance and blunty said, "Good that you know."
So sexually frustrated, ha ha ha...
Tang Honghe was clearly enjoying himself, tilting his head to lean on Qu Jiashu’s shoulder.
Qu Jiashu frowned and pushed Tang Honghe away, his tone filled with thick distaste, "Stay away from me."
Xie Baola cradled her chin, looking at them as if watching a dubious pair.
Seeing that look from Xie Baola, Qu Jiashu felt a shiver go down his spine, "Paula, I’ll take you somewhere too, want to go?"
Shen Dang had already taken Qiao Xi away.
Xie Baola leaned back lazily on the sofa, "Where to?"
Qu Jiashu said, "There’s an entertainment race at the poping race club on West Mountain."
Qu Jiashu knew Xie Baola enjoyed these things and had paid special attention.
Xie Baola, who had been grinding away at work recently with little fun in her life, agreed without a second thought.
"Let’s go."
"Take me too, I’m in!"
Tang Honghe stood up as well.
Qu Jiashu simply pressed down on his shoulder, "No, you’re not going."
Tang Honghe: "???"
Didn’t he just say they were going?
Qu Jiashu left with Xie Baola.
Tang Honghe still stood there, dumbfounded.
What did he mean by that?
Aren’t they supposed to be friends and include each other?
Aren’t we bros anymore?
Perhaps it’s all just superficial?
Tang Honghe looked towards Sheng Chao and his wife, the only ones left in the private room, "Brother Chao, Sister-in-law, what’s Qu Jiashu up to?"
They’re leaving him out!
Su Tutu smiled meaningfully, "You really don’t know what he’s getting at?"
"Stop beating around the bush, Sister-in-law!"
Tang Honghe stomped his foot in frustration.
The action was a bit effeminate.
Su Tutu couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Tang Honghe turned his head, "Brother Chao, you tell me."
Sheng Chao mercilessly teased, "Idiot."
Tang Honghe raised his eyebrows, irritated, "Brother Chao, are you personally attacking me?"
Sheng Chao smirked with a hooked lip, "Wife, look at this—so obvious and yet he has to go out of his way to ask again. If that’s not stupid, what is?"
Tang Honghe: "!!!"
So everyone’s bullying him, the single dog?
"I’m really angry now!"
Su Tutu couldn’t bear it any longer, "Don’t you really get it? Can’t you see Qu Jiashu is interested in Paula?"
She had noticed it last time, okay?
Tang Honghe: "......"
Shen Dang drove Qiao Xi away from Tan Garden.
Qiao Xi looked at the man’s sharply defined profile, "Considering you invited us to dinner, is it really okay for us to just leave like this?"
"It’s precisely because I invited them—I can leave freely without worrying about them."
Boss Shen had one hand on the steering wheel and the other holding Qiao Xi’s, both resting on the console.
He was a man who couldn’t bear to let go of his girlfriend’s hand, even while driving.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips into a smile, "You said you were taking me somewhere, where to?"
"Home."
The two syllables dropped quietly.
Qiao Xi: "..."
The night wind howled by; the scenery on either side sped past like on fast-forward, leaving only afterimages.
Xie Baola drove swiftly to the foot of West Mountain.
Qu Jiashu was sitting next to her.
The car she was driving had been modified by Qu Jiashu for racing.
Xie Baola pulled over and with a cocky arch of her brow announced, "We’re heading up the mountain."
Qu Jiashu lounged back in his seat and smiled, "Yeah."
The mountain road was smooth but had many curves, both sides well-lit by streetlamps—a place perfect for racing.
It took Xie Baola just a few minutes to drive up to mid-mountain.
Tonight’s racers were all gathered there.
Xie Baola got out of the car, leaning lazily against it, her long legs leading up to a deadly waist.
Many people there recognized Xie Baola.
"Paula, heard you were back in the country. Been wanting to hang out, but you’ve been MIA. Lucky to see you tonight," a man approached her.
Xie Baola smiled indifferently, "Just here for some fun."
The man saw Qu Jiashu and exclaimed, "President Qu came too."
Qu Jiashu ignored the man, his gaze shifting to Xie Baola, "Paula, we’ll do a lap and then head back."
"Okay."
She can’t be out too late, so she didn’t object to Qu Jiashu’s proposal.
Seeing Xie Baola agree so readily, the man looked curiously between them.
"Paula, you came at the right time, we’ve got someone fun here tonight," the man said. "He’s not from our circle, but he sure loves a good adventure. I’ll introduce you."
Xie Baola lifted her eyelids unconcernedly, "Who is it?"
"There," the man gestured with his chin towards a man not far off in a white shirt.
From among the crowded and noisy crowd, Xie Baola’s eyes caught Chen Jiayan.
Separated by the night, obscured by dim lights, it was as if they were looking at each other across a gap in space. Amid the oddly dressed throng, only he stood proper and straight in a suit, white no less, making him seem especially pure.
Xie Baola tilted her head and asked the man beside her, "Who is he?"
"Chen Jiayan."
"Interesting."
Xie Baola’s lips curled into a smirk as she walked towards Chen Jiayan.
When Qu Jiashu heard the name Chen Jiayan, his eyes flickered.
As the man was about to follow Xie Baola, Qu Jiashu stopped him.
"President Qu, what’s up?"
"Does Chen Jiayan come here often?"
"Not really, but the guy knows how to have fun, loves to take risks. We enjoy hanging with him."
Qu Jiashu waved him off.
The man left.
Xie Baola had already reached Chen Jiayan and waved, "Hello, we meet again."
Chen Jiayan couldn’t pretend not to know her.
He leaned in, his lips nearly touching Xie Baola’s ear.
From this angle, it looked to others like they were whispering sweet nothings.
In reality, Chen Jiayan didn’t touch her at all.
