Chapter 363: Chapter 360: Since You’ve Forgotten, Shall I Help You Remember?
Qiao Xi gave a shove against his chest, slipped off his legs, and scooted to the side against the car door, putting a clear distance between them.
Shen Dang chuckled lowly upon seeing this.
Shen Dang tried to pull her back, but Qiao Xi dodged several times to avoid his touch.
Shen Dang touched his nose helplessly.
Seemed like he had angered her?
What should he do to coax her?
"I was wrong."
Boss Shen always had an enthusiastic attitude when admitting his mistakes.
Qiao Xi glanced at him, her gaze icy cold, "What did you do wrong?"
Shen Dang stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and tentatively asked, "Should I seek your permission before kissing you next time?"
Qiao Xi: "..."
That’s not even human language!
As a result of Boss Shen’s words, Qiao Xi didn’t talk to him for the entire trip.
Qiao Xi had just completed filming and had many matters to handle.
Her contract with IZ perfume expired last month, and since "Snowfield Ballet" was in the latter half of filming, Qiao Xi didn’t take leave to return; now that she was back, she needed to sign the termination contract without further delay.
Qiao Xi checked her work schedule with Wang Li.
Temporarily not taking on any roles was certain; this year, Qiao Xi planned to rest well and have fun with her close friends during the holidays.
But before that, she couldn’t avoid participating in various events.
Wang Li also shared some news with her, "Detective in the Republic" was going to apply for awards, and the production team was already preparing.
This meant she would definitely attend the film festival at the end of the year.
The rest involved photoshoots for magazine covers and some offline events.
Including the fact that she had to go to F country to shoot the new cover for LArtisan before the year’s end.
Qiao Xi planned to sign the contracts first thing tomorrow.
She also informed Xie Baola that she was back today and suggested they could meet for dinner if Baola was free in the evening.
However, Xie Baola hadn’t replied to her yet.
The car stopped in the Sheng Birch Mansion complex.
Everyone got out of the car.
Assistant Gao took two suitcases out of the trunk.
Bei Bei, standing aside, tactfully said, "Sister Xi, I’m heading back first, huh? Call me if you need anything tomorrow."
With Boss Shen here, she wouldn’t be the third wheel.
Qiao Xi turned to Assistant Gao, "Please give Bei Bei a ride—"
"No need!" Bei Bei quickly waved her hands in refusal, "I can get back on my own! I know the place well!"
After saying that, she ran off with her own suitcase.
Assistant Gao fell silent: "..."
Was he that fearsome?
"You go send Xixi’s assistant, then head back to the company; the bodyguards can stay on the ground floor."
Shen Dang ordered Assistant Gao.
Bei Bei was someone close to Qiao Xi, and Shen Dang needed to guard against Chu Xiuyun, lest he used Bei Bei to threaten Qiao Xi.
"Yes, President Shen."
Assistant Gao drove out of the complex. Bei Bei wasn’t walking too fast, so Assistant Gao quickly caught sight of her.
He honked the horn.
Bei Bei looked back and saw Assistant Gao through the windshield.
Thinking she might be blocking the way, she stepped aside.
Assistant Gao lowered the car window: "Bei Bei, let me give you a lift."
"Really, there’s no need."
"President Shen asked me to give you a ride."
Assistant Gao got out of the car, took the suitcase from Bei Bei’s hands, and placed it in the car, "Get in."
Bei Bei bowed towards the gate of the complex: "Thank you, Boss Shen, and thank you, Assistant Gao!"
Assistant Gao was amused by her gesture.
"Let’s go upstairs," Shen Dang said as he caught two suitcases by the handles and held Qiao Xi’s hand with the other, "We’ll go out to eat dinner later."
Qiao Xi looked at the suddenly appearing suitcases, confused as she glanced up, "Whose extra suitcase is this?"
"Mine."
"???" Qiao Xi didn’t understand, "Why did you bring your suitcase to my place?"
Shen Dang lifted his eyelids, saying as if it were a given, "To live with you, of course. Didn’t we agree on this before?"
Qiao Xi instinctively retorted, "Who agreed with you?"
Shen Dang raised his eyebrows, a hint of ambiguity in his eyes as he squinted, "Have you forgotten so quickly?"
Qiao Xi’s gaze flickered, feigning ignorance, "I surely didn’t agree."
She had been coerced into agreeing with him.
And now he had the audacity to argue about it.
Suddenly, Shen Dang bent down, looked straight into her eyes, "Since you’ve forgotten, do you want me to help you remember?"
His eyes sparkled with mischief, full of intrigue; his expression somewhat suggestive.
Qiao Xi couldn’t help but marvel at his shamelessness.
She couldn’t resist rolling her eyes, "...Shameless!"
Qiao Xi pulled away from him and hurried ahead.
Shen Dang dragged the two suitcases and stopped the elevator doors from closing.
He tilted his head, smiling lazily, "You don’t like Yingyue Bay and haven’t chosen another place, so I have to live here with you. Since you’ve agreed to me, you can’t go back on your word, or else I’ll have to bring out the evidence."
If the mountain won’t come to Muhammad, then Muhammad must go to the mountain.
Qiao Xi: "..."
What evidence could he possibly have?
Shen Dang pressed the floor number, and Qiao Xi turned her gaze away, speechless and unable to handle him.
The two arrived upstairs.
Shen Dang changed his shoes and rolled the suitcases into the living room.
Seeing him heading to the bedroom, Qiao Xi quickly grabbed his suitcases and pushed them into the guest room: "You’ll stay here!"
As long as she said it quickly, he wouldn’t have a choice.
Shen Dang’s half-closed dark eyes seemed to see through her intentions, and he nodded with a laugh, "Fine, the guest room works."
Only by settling in would he have a chance.
Adults know what choices are best.
Qiao Xi scrutinized him for a few seconds, seeing his frank face, she hummed indifferently, "I’m going to take a shower."
"Me too."
Qiao Xi glared at him.
Shen Dang let out a helpless laugh and flicked her forehead, "What naughty things are you thinking about, huh?"
Qiao Xi swatted away his hand, expressionless, "I’m not thinking of anything."
"Is that so?" Shen Dang’s face showed a touch of suggestiveness, "And here I thought you were wondering if I was going to join you."
Qiao Xi: "..."
He had guessed it right.
But it wasn’t that his words were too suggestive?
Qiao Xi would never admit it, though.
She snorted coldly, "You’re overthinking."
Qiao Xi turned and walked into the bedroom, slamming the door behind her in his face.
Qiao Xi still had makeup on her face, and after removing it, she took a shower, feeling much refreshed afterward.
As she entered the living room, she saw Shen Dang on the phone.
"Yeah, we just arrived... Tonight? I’m not free tonight, let’s talk another time."
Shen Dang, spotting Qiao Xi, said to the person on the other end, "We’ll talk about it when we return," before hanging up.
Qiao Xi asked curiously, "Whose call was that?"
"Madam Shen, she wanted us to come over for dinner."
Ran Jing hadn’t seen Qiao Xi for a long time, and knowing that Shen Dang now had the opportunity to get close to Qiao Xi and thinking that their relationship might have improved, she wanted to see her.
Shen Dang knew that Qiao Xi would feel uncomfortable going back now, so he declined.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips, "Do Grandpa and Aunt know about our relationship?"
As someone approached, Shen Dang smiled and took hold of her hand, giving it a squeeze, "I haven’t told them, but..."
"But what?"
"They support me in pursuing my ex-wife."
Just that they don’t know he has already caught her.
Qiao Xi: "..."
