Chapter 402: Chapter 396: Video

Shen Dang saw Qiao Xi stunned on the spot and realized he had been somewhat impulsive.

He laughed softly as soon as he finished speaking.

Qiao Xi couldn’t figure out the meaning behind his smile and pursed her lips slightly, "A little."

This move by Shen Dang had caught her off guard.

Shen Dang smiled faintly, "Then let’s make it official first."

Let’s arrange this matter first.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xi breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay."

She nodded.

"Does it really not hurt anymore?"

Shen Dang asked again.

Qiao Xi exhaled, seemingly sighing, "It didn’t hurt in the first place, you’re making too much of it."

But Qiao Xi also understood that it was because Shen Dang cared about her that he paid so much attention to her.

So that even a little issue would be magnified in his eyes.

Shen Dang stood up, his tall figure towering before her, his expression proud, "Then will you be more careful when you walk next time?"

Qiao Xi pouted, "Who can be sure about that kind of thing?"

Shen Dang pulled her up, "It’s good that I’m here."

"Yes," Qiao Xi acquiesced smoothly, "It’s good that you’re here."

She finished speaking and laughed.

Shen Dang laughed too, "Let’s go home."

"Okay."

...

Qiao Xi had been off work these past few days, finally able to relax.

Conversely, Shen Dang’s work increased as the New Year approached.

After he went to work, Qiao Xi also got up, did some yoga on the mat, and then went to have breakfast.

The Four Seasons Cloud Top had already been completely renovated.

Qiao Xi took the opportunity to check the new house for its finishing touches.

The overall decor presented exactly the effect she wanted.

Qiao Xi was very satisfied.

She took a few photos and sent them to Shen Dang to share the joy.

Shen Dang didn’t reply, so Qiao Xi browsed some small pieces of furniture online.

Actually, many things didn’t need to be bought.

The furniture originally at Sheng Birch Mansion could be moved over and reused.

Each piece of furniture had been meticulously chosen by her.

Qiao Xi was someone who cherished the old; she naturally wouldn’t discard anything that was still usable.

Just adding what was missing was enough.

Suddenly, Qiao Xi thought she might need a dishwasher and immediately began seriously selecting brands.

When Shen Dang saw Qiao Xi’s messages, he called her right away, "Did you go to the new house?"

Qiao Xi leaned back lazily in her chair, a trace of a smile on her lips, "Yeah, I went to check it when I had some free time."

"Is Teacher Qiao still satisfied?"

"It’s alright, it’s the effect I wanted. In a while, we can move the furniture in."

"I’m very satisfied with our new home too."

Our new home?

Qiao Xi corrected him, "It’s clearly my home."

Shen Dang raised his eyebrows, his voice through the phone carrying a clear chuckle, "Then may I apply to stay in your master bedroom?"

He made his intentional request sound so casual.

"No!"

Qiao Xi was partly teasing him.

"Then what would it take for me to be able to?" Shen Dang didn’t get upset and casually continued along with her words.

Qiao Xi thought for a moment, speaking slowly, "Well, let me think about that question more thoroughly."

"Alright."

Shen Dang laughed leisurely.

Qiao Xi’s face was spreading with a smile, her voice noticeably lighter, "Then you go ahead with your work; I’m going to drive now."

"Okay."

Qiao Xi was preparing to return to Sheng Birch Mansion when her phone rang again.

Su Tutu made a video call, "Sister."

Qiao Xi propped her forehead with her hand, "Sister, what’s up?"

Su Tutu’s voice was somewhat excited, "You know what I saw?"

Qiao Xi was clueless, "How would I know what you saw?"

"It’s about you. You’re not busy right now, are you? I’m going to send the video to you, take a look."

"Not busy."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Tutu promptly hung up the video call.

Within a minute, Qiao Xi received a video on WeChat.

Her slender finger tapped on the screen—

In a pavilion surrounded by precious flowers and plants.

Shen Dang was kneeling in front of her, holding her ankle.

His posture was particularly devout.

She looked down slightly at him.

His entire being bathed in warm light.

"Shall we remarry?"

Shen Dang’s familiar voice came from the phone.

Qiao Xi’s heart skipped a beat.

The feeling hadn’t been so strong yesterday, but now, seeing this video, the impact was real.

Like a fire burning her heart.

The video clearly showed his serious demeanor.

That deep, sexy voice had enchanted Qiao Xi.

The video was obviously taken from a dark place.

When he finished that sentence, the video abruptly stopped.

It didn’t capture what Shen Dang said next—"Is it too soon?"

Tan Garden was Shen Dang’s territory, who would dare to secretly film there?

The video was less than a minute, but Qiao Xi’s emotions took a long time to calm down.

Even though she felt the marriage proposal was a bit rushed, she almost unwittingly agreed to him the night before.

Being caught off-guard by Shen Dang left her conflicted, that’s why she was startled last night.

However, even after a night had passed, she still felt an indescribable emotion because of the video.

Once she calmed down, Qiao Xi asked Su Tutu, "Where did you see the video?"

Su Tutu replied with a voice message, "In a group chat, some rich girl posted it, but she said she didn’t film it."

Su Tutu added, "What? Do you want to ask who filmed it? After all, you and Boss Shen haven’t made it official yet."

Qiao Xi pondered for a moment, "No need to ask, Shen Dang and I were planning to make it official anyway."

Su Tutu said, "I checked, and this video hasn’t been circulated online, probably someone was just curious and filmed you guys."

Regardless, secretly filming is a bad behavior.

Qiao Xi didn’t know if Shen Dang had seen the video, and she didn’t plan to tell him.

She didn’t know what actions or arrangements Shen Dang had regarding them making it official, and she wasn’t going to ask him.

If she asked, the male siren would surely take it as a sign she was anxious.

That’s why Qiao Xi wouldn’t do that.

Qiao Xi drove home, and then Su Tutu sent another voice message.

"I found out who filmed the video."

Qiao Xi leaned on the sofa and responded, "Who?"

"Qu Keke."

Qu Keke?

What did she intend by filming this video?

"Xixi, could Qu Keke still be hung up on Boss Shen?" Su Tutu’s tone was dubious.

Qiao Xi didn’t hesitate, "That shouldn’t be the case."

Although Qu Keke was a bit arrogant, they had cleared the air before, and she shouldn’t harbor such thoughts anymore.

After pondering for a while, Qiao Xi still forwarded the video to Qu Keke, then asked her, "Did you film this video?"

"Yeah," Qu Keke didn’t hide it and straightforwardly said, "I filmed the video, just to be clear, I didn’t intentionally follow you to film; I just happened to come across it, so I took it."
