Chapter 347: Chapter 345 Boss Shen Saves the Beauty
Qiao Xi understood the underlying message in Shen Dang’s words.
He was worried that the video would let the public discover their private relationship, so he wanted to divert their attention.
That was also the reason for Shen Dang’s presence here.
Qiao Xi opened her mouth to say something, but Shen Dang had already hung up the phone.
When Shen Dang looked over, Qiao Xi cast her eyes down.
Wang Li’s voice clearly entered her ears, "Xixi, what are you planning to do now? Are you going to publicly disclose your relationship with Boss Shen? With this incident, a lot of people will definitely be concerned about your affairs, and I think now would be a good opportunity to officially announce it. However, it’s up to you and what you two think."
Her words came too late.
Shen Dang had already made arrangements, so naturally, Qiao Xi wasn’t in a position to say anything.
The situation was veering towards an uncontrollable direction, and Qiao Xi didn’t want to make her relationship with Shen Dang public amidst this chaos.
Qiao Xi pressed her lips together, "No need, I’m fine here. Just tell everyone I’m okay, and don’t worry about the rest."
Wang Li sighed, "Okay, I understand."
A faint flicker of disappointment passed through Boss Shen’s eyes.
But it was only for an instant.
"Xi—"
His voice was interrupted by a ringtone.
"It’s Baola calling."
Qiao Xi answered first.
Xie Baola had also seen the news online, and her voice carried urgency, "Baby, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I’m fine," Qiao Xi said with a faint smile, "Shen Dang arrived very timely, I’m all good."
Xie Baola suddenly let out a cold laugh, "This Chu Xiuyun is getting worse, has he been pestering you?"
"A few times."
Xie Baola’s voice was chilly, "That scumbag almost caused you harm, don’t worry, I, Xie Paula, will definitely take this up for you!"
Qiao Xi also received many messages of concern from friends.
She replied to each one.
Wang Li helped her post a Weibo to soothe her fans.
This incident, if taken seriously, wasn’t actually that grave.
After all, Qiao Xi hadn’t suffered any harm, and in fact, it was the men Shen Dang beat who couldn’t even get up.
Boss Shen’s cold display made everyone wonder if those he had brought down were still alive.
Some netizens felt Boss Shen’s heroic rescue was very overbearing, while others thought he was too brutal.
Of course, there was also a group of people whose attention was on why Boss Shen would appear right on time by Qiao Xi’s side—
Did they have an unclear relationship behind closed doors?
Such remarks were blocked due to sensitive words as soon as they appeared.
GK Entertainment officially clarified the relationship between Shen Dang and Qiao Xi, stating they were nothing more than friends and business partners.
This clarification was very formal.
Although some still doubted their relationship, nobody dared to make wild speculations on Weibo.
The legal director of IDC Capital, Hu Yi, stepped forward personally with a strong approach to tell people that whoever spread rumors would be held accountable.
Under the pressure of power, their relationship thus didn’t become public.
Afterwards, knowing about the situation, Qiao Xi felt an indescribable emotion...
Half an hour later, the driver stopped the car outside the terminal building.
Shen Dang casually glanced down, "You guys get out first."
The driver and Bei Bei did not dare to delay, moving in sync, they each opened their door and got out.
They did not wait by the car, exchanging a look before heading toward a spot not too far away.
Shen Dang had never let go of her hand the entire way.
Their clasped palms both seeped with sweat.
Yet, it didn’t feel sticky.
The car all of a sudden felt empty, leaving Qiao Xi’s mind blank for a moment, "I..."
Shen Dang pulled her into his embrace.
His tight hold enveloped her entire being.
Qiao Xi swallowed back the words she had intended to speak.
She was taken aback, "What’s wrong?"
Shen Dang’s hoarse voice landed on top of her head, "I just wanted to hold you for a moment."
Qiao Xi pursed her lips.
She hadn’t informed the director that she was returning to Mo City today, which she could have mentioned to Shen Dang at this moment.
Considering that he was busy with many things, Qiao Xi in the end didn’t voice this thought.
After all, she was going back to Mo City, and staying here for another day wouldn’t really make a difference.
Shen Dang held her for a long time.
Neither of them spoke.
Time flowed by quietly.
Qiao Xi could feel his reluctance and unease.
Other vehicles on the road whizzed past their car.
Qiao Xi lifted her eyelids and asked him, "What are you planning to do with Chu Xiuyun?"
"Don’t worry about these things."
Shen Dang rubbed her hair, his voice deep and warm, "I will take care of this trouble. You focus on your filming, and I’ll visit you in Mo City when I have the time."
His words were somewhat evasive.
Qiao Xi knew Shen Dang didn’t want her to worry, but his silence made her more anxious.
The light filled the car interior, Qiao Xi met his gaze directly, her voice clear and cold, "Shen Dang, if you don’t tell me anything, I can’t be at ease, and might end up thinking about these issues so much that I can’t focus on my filming."
She knew that Chu Xiuyun was not easy to deal with.
Shen Dang gazed at her intently for several seconds and finally gave in helplessly, "I’ve tampered with projects at Chu Group, and as well, I’ve been secretly buying up Chu Group’s dispersed shares for several months now."
If he was going to act, he would make it a decisive strike.
He couldn’t give Chu Xiuyun any chance to struggle.
He said, "Without the Chu Group, the Chu Family is ruined, and Chu Xiuyun will become nothing to be feared."
He was determined to cut off Chu Xiuyun’s support.
He sabotaged the cooperation with the Chu Group, breaking its financial lifeline.
In addition, he had people investigating criminal activities the Chu Group was involved in over recent years.
Every plan was ultimately aimed at bringing down the Chu Group.
The bombs he had planted long ago were a massive threat to the Chu Group as a whole.
The Chu empire was about to fall.
Shen Dang glanced at his watch, then turned his gaze back to Qiao Xi, "You should go, or you’ll miss your flight."
They had already been delayed on the road for quite a while, and any further delay would cause her to miss her flight.
Qiao Xi immediately became anxious, "Then I’m off."
Shen Dang gave her a low smile, "Go ahead."
Qiao Xi told him hurriedly, "I’ll video call you when I have time."
They had been in love for so long, yet this seemed to be the first time she took the initiative.
Shen Dang was momentarily stunned, then soon smiled, "I’ll call you too when I’m available."
"Yeah."
Qiao Xi’s cheeks reddened as she got out of the car.
Bei Bei saw her alighting and quickly came over, grabbed the luggage, and followed Qiao Xi into the terminal building.
Shen Dang rested one hand on the car window, quietly watching Qiao Xi’s retreating figure.
The driver got back in the car and respectfully asked, "President Shen, are we heading back to the company?"
The phone rang at that moment.
Shen Dang looked down, raised an eyebrow slightly, and leisurely answered the call, "Miss Xie."
His voice was very casual.
Xie Baola: "Boss Shen even knows how to play the hero now."
