My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day
Chapter 397 - 391 Hungry

Chapter 397: Chapter 391 Hungry

"Qiao Xi was so unlucky this time, she should have won the award, but she was completely overshadowed by ’Battle of Qingrong.’"

"’Battle of Qingrong’ really made me cry."

"Jiang Yongge partnering with Qiao Xi really brought down her class."

Qiao Xi missed out on the Best Actress Award, and there were plenty of people online laughing at her.

Compared to those who were overreactive, Qiao Xi remained calm.

It was just a narrow miss with a Movie Queen, and she had many unlimited potentials for the future.

Although she felt a bit disappointed now, she quickly processed these low spirits.

She wouldn’t let bad feelings continuously disturb her peace.

"In my heart, Teacher Qiao is the best, the next Movie Queen should be none other than you."

Listening to Shen Dang’s flattering words, Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh, "Then I’ll put in more effort and film more movies."

Her beautiful eyes curved.

"Let’s go."

Shen Dang reached out his hand to her.

His hands were distinctively boned and very slender and attractive.

There were still stars around who hadn’t left.

The film festival had ended, so Qiao Xi no longer needed to hide.

Shen Dang’s gentle gaze fell on her, and he raised his eyebrows, "Let’s go home."

"Mhm."

Qiao Xi placed her hand in his palm and smiled at him.

Shen Dang held Qiao Xi’s hand and walked towards the exit.

Occasionally, others glanced at their intertwined fingers, their eyes filled with inscrutable depths.

Was Qiao Xi so stirred by not winning the award tonight that she just gave up?

Due to Shen Dang’s status and presence, even though people were very curious about their relationship, they dared not approach to probe.

But there were always some who were clueless.

Shen Dang, anxious to take his girlfriend home, was stopped by someone.

"Teacher Qiao."

Zhong Xinran’s makeup was exquisite, and her slightly innocent face wore a smile as her gaze quickly shifted from Shen Dang.

This man emanated a lofty aura that commanded respect.

She had heard of Boss Shen’s reputation, but she hadn’t anticipated that Qiao Xi’s financial backer was Boss Shen!

No wonder she always acted so arrogantly—it was all because she had Shen Dang’s support.

Indeed a mighty sponsor.

What if she stole Shen Dang from Qiao Xi?

Qiao Xi narrowed her eyes slightly coldly staring at Zhong Xinran, "What is it?"

"Nothing, just saw you so I thought I’d come to say hello," Zhong Xinran said, "It’s just that I feel regretful that Teacher Qiao didn’t win tonight."

There was a hint of pity in her face.

Qiao Xi had seen this expression in many people that night.

She didn’t feel it was a pity at all, yet everyone seemed to pity her.

Qiao Xi smiled lightly, "There’s nothing to be regretful about, perhaps I might win next time; destiny never lets down those who work hard."

The next film, is it not ’Snowfield Ballet’?

If Qiao Xi won an award, it wouldn’t affect her, the third lead.

Not to mention, Shu Jing was still above her.

She actually hoped Qiao Xi wouldn’t win.

"Xixi, are you done? If so, let’s head back."

Shen Dang’s eyebrows furrowed.

Who was this person, delaying them for minutes?

"We have something else, we’re leaving first."

Qiao Xi indifferently told Zhong Xinran before leaving with Shen Dang.

Zhong Xinran turned and watched their retreating figures.

She had just seen Shen Dang clearly annoyed, perhaps Boss Shen didn’t really care much for Qiao Xi.

After all, their relationship was only of sponsorship.

If they didn’t care about their relationship being exposed, then would her chances of stealing Boss Shen be high?

If she managed to have Boss Shen by her side, she might even be able to break the contract with her current agency and sign with GK!

Qiao Xi was unaware of Zhong Xinran’s grand dreams, not taking the brief episode to heart.

"I’m a bit hungry, how about we grab some late-night food before heading home?"

Once in the car, Qiao Xi suddenly said to Shen Dang.

She hadn’t dared to eat much in the afternoon and was genuinely hungry now.

Shen Dang slightly turned his head towards her, his eyes conveying a profound message, "I’m hungry too."

Qiao Xi didn’t think of it any other way.

"Being hungry is perfect, let’s share some late-night snacks."

But what he wanted to eat wasn’t late-night snacks.

Shen Dang tapped his fingers on the steering wheel a few times, "So what would you like to eat?"

Qiao Xi, unaware of Shen Dang’s little schemes, thought for a moment and said, "Whatever is fine."

Sheng Chao and Su Tutu had left the film festival early.

Qiao Xi was still in her formal dress, and when Shen Dang drove past a Japanese food store, he stopped the car and went inside to pack sushi.

Qiao Xi waited in the car.

The little sun that came out in the afternoon didn’t have much effect, and it was still very cold at night.

This year’s first snowfall hadn’t arrived yet.

The wind carried a biting chill, and the cold wind against one’s face was somewhat stinging.

The wind poured through the open car window, dispelling the stale heat from the car and making the air much fresher.

When Shen Dang brought back the packed sushi, Qiao Xi then raised the car window.

"Boss Shen, it must’ve been hard." Qiao Xi grinned.

Shen Dang chuckled, "Eat."

After handing the food to Qiao Xi, Shen Dang drove back with one hand on the steering wheel.

Qiao Xi asked, "Aren’t you eating?"

"I’m not very hungry."

"But you just said you were hungry."

"...then feed me."

His demand seemed natural.

Qiao Xi hummed softly but ended up feeding Boss Shen along the way, and the two of them quickly finished the sushi.

"It’s so cold; I’ll take a shower first."

As soon as they got home, Qiao Xi headed towards the master bedroom, but just as she turned around, her wrist was grabbed.

Shen Dang pulled her into his embrace.

Qiao Xi paused, and when she met Shen Dang’s deep, enticing eyes, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

That look in his eyes...

"What are you doing?"

Her voice was coquettish.

"I’ll help you."

Qiao Xi noticed his Adam’s apple bobbing.

????

What help? She wasn’t handicapped!

She pushed him, "I can do it myself!"

He stubbornly insisted, "Your wound just healed, let me help you."

What a poor excuse?

She was about to laugh, "What just healed? I’m already fine!"

"Fine?"

His eyes held a fiery intensity, and his gaze heated up.

Qiao Xi, clueless, nodded, "Yes, I’m fine."

"That’s perfect then."

Qiao Xi: "..."

Perfect for what?

"I’m hungry, you’re fine so it’s perfect."

Qiao Xi: "..."

She didn’t get it.

In the moment when Shen Dang hooked her waist and led her into the bathroom, making it impossible for her to escape, she finally understood what he was talking about.

This wretched man!

...

The bathroom was filled with wafts of steam.

Within that steam, two fervent souls collided.

Clashing desperately in intimate embrace.

Qiao Xi’s palm passively rested on the glass, slipping down weakly with each clash, leaving the hazy glass marked with her five fingertips, exuding an air of sensual intimacy.

The atmosphere here was fiery hot, and so was Weibo.
