Chapter 379: Chapter 374: Qu Jiashu Suddenly Gets Married

"There must be something if there’s nothing."

Who couldn’t see the scheming in Tang Honghe’s behavior towards Qu Keke last night?

Everyone isn’t foolish.

But since Qu Keke didn’t want to say anything, Qiao Xi didn’t press her for answers.

Here, Qu Keke put down her phone and stuck her tongue out at Qu Jiashu, "I already told Qiao Xi."

Qu Jiashu just "hmm"-ed in response.

"Brother, even if I tell Qiao Xi about this, she might not tell Xie Baola, right?"

Qu Keke didn’t understand why her brother wanted her to do all these things.

After all, he had already made his stance clear in front of Xie Baola last night, so what was the point of staging this act now?

She didn’t get it.

Qu Jiashu’s eyes drooped, hiding all the emotions within.

He was in turmoil and very upset.

On one hand, he hoped Xie Baola would do something after knowing about this matter.

On the other hand, he was afraid that even if she knew, she would do nothing.

Doing these things was like self-torture, bringing him momentary relief before ultimately leading him to give up.

Seeing that he wouldn’t speak, Qu Keke sighed, "Forget it, I’m going out to have fun."

Qu Jiashu raised his eyes, his gaze sharp, "Qu Keke, what’s really going on between you and Tang Honghe?"

Qu Keke’s eyes flickered, "What are you talking about, have you all gone mad? There’s nothing between him and me!"

Her demeanor clearly exhibited guilt.

She couldn’t hide her panic.

Afraid of Qu Jiashu’s probing, she grabbed her bag and dashed off.

...

Qiao Xi told Zhou Ge to drive to the mall.

The fridge at home was empty.

She planned to shop for some groceries.

Zhou Ge parked the car outside the mall and followed Qiao Xi inside.

As Qiao Xi pushed her cart, he trailed behind her.

While Qiao Xi was picking vegetables, Shen Dang happened to make a video call.

Shen Dang’s voice, low and pleasant, murmured into her ear, "Did my girlfriend finish work?"

Qiao Xi’s face was hidden beneath her mask; her lips curved into a smile, "Yes, I’ve finished. I’m in the supermarket at the mall, what do you feel like eating tonight?"

Shen Dang’s lips curled into a lazy smile, "Are you planning to cook?"

"No." Qiao Xi’s eyes crinkled with mirth, "I’m assisting you."

Shen Dang leaned back in his executive chair with crossed legs, a floor-to-ceiling window behind him, his whole figure bathed in light.

His facial features were sharp and extraordinarily handsome.

With a smile on his face, his unique lax demeanor stood out even more.

He gazed at Qiao Xi with a smile in his eyes, his tone slow and leisurely, "Then what do you want to eat?"

Qiao Xi lifted her head to look at the various vegetables on the shelves, replied to him, "There’s a lot I want to eat, I can’t think of anything right now."

From Shen Dang’s perspective, he could see her beautiful jawline and swan-like neck, her fair skin appealing to the eye.

He tilted his head, lazily propping up his chin, "Then you pick whatever you like; I’ll cook whatever you buy tonight."

His gaze through the screen settled on Qiao Xi.

"Alright, then I’ll hang up now."

"Wait a second."

Qiao Xi lowered her gaze, her eyelashes fluttering, "What’s up?"

"I just want to look at you a bit longer."

Qiao Xi was wearing Bluetooth earphones and knew Zhou Ge couldn’t hear Shen Dang’s words, yet her ears inexplicably heated up.

Qiao Xi didn’t say anything and raised her hand to end the video call.

Shen Dang looked at the empty screen and clicked his tongue in displeasure.

He suddenly felt like leaving work early.

Qiao Xi bought the groceries and returned to Sheng Birch Mansion.

Shen Dang hadn’t finished work yet, and she didn’t know what to do, so she didn’t touch the groceries, opting instead to watch a movie.

"The Detective in the Republic" was already available online.

Qiao Xi, having a membership, played it on her phone and cast it to the TV.

She munched on snacks while watching the movie.

The movie was interrupted halfway through when she received a call from Wang Li.

"What’s wrong, Sister Li?"

Wang Li sounded distressed.

She sighed, "As soon as you returned from the film crew, everyone’s been watching you, and now you and that bodyguard have hit the trending searches."

Qiao Xi: "..."

Qiao Xi also thought it was absurd.

There was no need for Qiao Xi to get involved; the PR team could handle it.

Wang Li was concerned about something else.

"I see you and Boss Shen are pretty stable now. If it weren’t for the upcoming film festival, I’d be eager to go public for you."

An early revelation would’ve meant fewer scandals.

Qiao Xi let out a breath, "There’s nothing to be done right now. We can’t reveal it early, right?"

Wang Li immediately said, "Of course not!"

Wang Li changed the subject, "I heard the charity dinner invited Boss Shen, and if he’s going too, you’d better be careful, you know?"

Boss Shen was going?

Qiao Xi hadn’t heard him mention it.

But it was normal for the organizers to invite Shen Dang, a big entertainment company boss.

His attendance would truly grace the event.

Others who tried to invite him were often unsuccessful.

Shen Dang’s participation in such an event was probably because of her.

Qiao Xi pondered for a moment, "I know, Tutu and I will walk together then."

"Mm."

After ending the call with Wang Li, Qiao Xi continued watching the movie.

When the movie finished, Shen Dang also came back from work.

As he opened the door, Qiao Xi was just turning off the screen projection.

Qiao Xi turned her head, her cool brows and eyes tinged with a smile, "Back already?"

Shen Dang walked in and pressed her into an embrace to kiss her.

Afterward, as if unsatisfied, he lightly bit her earlobe.

Qiao Xi’s ear tingled.

She lifted her foot and stomped on his foot.

For Shen Dang, the force was inconsequential.

Finally, their foreheads rested against one another, their breaths intertwined.

It was unclear whose heartbeat was thrown into disarray.

Shen Dang’s hands still encircled her slender waist, gazing down at her with heated eyes, "What’s that taste on your lips?"

He’s asking after the kiss?

Qiao Xi laughed out, showing him a packet, "Didn’t you see? Spicy sticks."

Shen Dang raised an eyebrow, his eyes amused, "Even female celebrities eat spicy sticks."

Hearing that, Qiao Xi chuckled, "Female celebrities also eat boxed meals."

"It’s my first time tasting spicy sticks."

His dark eyes suggested something profound.

Suddenly, Qiao Xi’s ears turned red.

Shen Dang closed his eyes briefly, suppressing the desire in his gaze, "Hungry? I’ll cook."

He raised his hand to rub her head.

One day he’d devour her completely.

"Not very."

Qiao Xi had eaten spicy sticks and an apple.

"Still, it’s time to cook."

Shen Dang pulled her into the kitchen to assist him.

But helping was secondary; he mostly wanted to see her.

While picking vegetables, Qiao Xi glanced up slightly, "Shen Dang, are you attending the charity dinner the day after tomorrow?"

Shen Dang responded offhandedly, "Yeah, going. I have money, so I’ll donate some."

Qiao Xi found his reply both funny and resigned, then reined in her laughter, "I have something to tell you."

"Hm?"

"Today, Qu Keke told me Jiashu is being forced into marriage."

Shen Dang was skeptical, "For real?"

Qiao Xi nodded, "Qu Keke wouldn’t lie to me."

"Jiashu is not young anymore; it seems normal."

Normal?

Or was she overthinking it?

Qiao Xi pondered, "Then do you think Jiashu could suddenly get married?"
