Chapter 411: Chapter 405: Love and Career Both Flourish
"Movie Emperor Jiang."
Jiang Yongge was accompanied by a slender woman.
She wore a dress with an overcoat, a long scarf wrapped around her neck and hanging in front, her face partly concealed by a mask, revealing only her gentle temperament through her eyes.
Her eyes were indeed beautiful.
Qiao Xi also noticed a slight bulge in her stomach.
Perhaps as an actress herself, she subconsciously observed people and that’s how she noticed this little detail.
"Boss Qiao," Jiang Yongge seemed surprised. "You’re here to see the new house again?"
Qiao Xi nodded. "Yes."
"It’s been so long, and you haven’t moved yet?"
Qiao Xi replied, "I’ll be moving soon."
Jiang Yongge smiled. "I’m looking forward to your housewarming feast then."
"You won’t be forgotten," Qiao Xi smiled and turned to the woman beside him. "Is this your wife?"
Qiao Xi had never seen Jiang Yongge’s wife, who was not from the entertainment circle.
Jiang Yongge had always protected his wife well.
"This is my wife Wenwan. We came out to buy some things," said Jiang Yongge, wrapping his arm around Wenwan’s shoulder. "Honey, this is one of the bosses of my company, Qiao Xi."
Wenwan excitedly extended her hand. "Hello, Boss Qiao, I’m a fan of yours; I really like you!"
She smiled, her almond eyes turning into crescents.
She seemed approachable and sweet.
Qiao Xi shook her hand and smiled broadly, "Thank you for your support. Just call me Qiao Xi, no need for formalities."
"I dare not, Boss Shen would get jealous if he heard, and he might even dock my pay," Jiang Yongge joked.
Qiao Xi couldn’t help laughing, and finally said, "I’m meeting up with Tutu for something, so I’ll take my leave now."
"Goodbye, Qiao Xi."
Wenwan waved to her.
Qiao Xi also waved back with a gentle smile, "Goodbye."
When Qiao Xi got back to her car, she turned on the heater.
Xie Baola had already replied to her message: [I’m busy with my future boyfriend; what’s up?]
What else could it be?
Could she really interrupt them?
[Qiao Xi: Nothing much, I’m out shopping with Tutu. You go on with your thing.]
[Xie Baola: Shopping in such cold weather?]
[Qiao Xi: Planning to buy some gifts for the elders.]
[Xie Baola: Okay, then take your time.]
Qiao Xi drove to pick up Su Tutu.
Once together, they headed to the mall.
Su Tutu, who disliked the cold, was wrapped in a thick scarf, her puffer coat reaching her knees.
Walking through the mall, she took Qiao Xi’s arm. "What are you planning to buy? New clothes or gifts?"
Qiao Xi responded cheerfully, "Congratulations, you guessed right."
Su Tutu uncertainly replied, "... gifts?"
"Mm-hmm."
Qiao Xi nodded.
Su Tutu pondered, looking sagely. "Let me guess who these gifts are for."
Qiao Xi’s eyes crinkled joyfully, intrigued. "Go on, guess."
Without hesitation, Su Tutu said, "For the Shen Family!"
Qiao Xi: "..."
She really can guess.
Su Tutu knew she was right by Qiao Xi’s expression.
She proudly lifted her chin. "Aha, I knew it! Let me guess more precisely: not for Boss Shen, but for the Shen Family elders, right? You’re planning to spend New Year with them."
She not only guessed the earlier part but even deduced the latter.
Qiao Xi slightly lifted the corners of her mouth, smiling without saying a word: "Honestly, you should be a paparazzo instead of Bei Bei; you’re spot on."
Su Tutu giggled. "Thanks for the compliment."
Su Tutu clicked her tongue and remarked, "Look at you, all radiant. Love and career are both flourishing now."
Qiao Xi responded with a light laugh. "Thanks for the compliment."
Su Tutu smirked, smiling. "Tsk."
Qiao Xi managed to find a gift for Ran Jing in the mall.
However, she couldn’t find anything suitable for Old Master Shen and Shen Dang’s father.
Seeing her distressed, Su Tutu suggested, "Actually, people from the Shen Family lack nothing. Your presence will make them happy; the gifts are secondary. But if you really want to give something, then perhaps some tobacco or alcohol."
Qiao Xi being accepted by Shen Dang was enough to make her happy, let alone the Shen Family.
Qiao Xi shook her head. "Uncle Shen doesn’t smoke."
Qiao Xi had visited the Shen Family several times; she wasn’t very familiar with Shen Hongxuan, but she knew this much.
"Then about tea?"
Su Tutu didn’t have to deal with in-laws, so she never faced Qiao Xi’s dilemma.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips. "Let’s go look somewhere else."
Su Tutu sighed deeply. "Okay then, today this goddess will accompany you even if it kills me!"
In the end, Qiao Xi was satisfied with the gifts she chose for Old Master Shen and Shen Hongxuan.
As it began to snow, Qiao Xi and Su Tutu decided to dine out.
"Girl," Su Tutu propped her cheek, her mischievous eyes gleaming with laughter, "I have some good news for you."
"Mm?" Qiao Xi’s eyebrows rose slightly, the bright overhead light illuminating her delicate features further.
With a light smile, she asked, "What is it?"
"The ’How Can I Not Be Moved’ show contacted me; they want Brother Chao and me to join. I agreed."
Qiao Xi nodded, maintaining composure. "That show is well-suited for you guys."
Su Tutu scrutinized her for a few seconds, guessing, "Are you and Boss Shen also going?"
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth lifted in a slight smile under Su Tutu’s gaze, and she nodded again. "Congratulations on guessing right again."
Qiao Xi paused. "I had Shen Dang inquire about who else would be guests since the show team didn’t reveal, but I suspected it might be you and Brother Chao... The show team is quite savvy."
The love and marriage of Sheng Chao had always been a topic of interest within the circle.
Sheng Chao generally kept a low profile, attending public events usually because of Su Tutu.
The only rumor about him was with Nie Qing,
but that was quickly denied.
Now, the public perceived Sheng Chao through a lens of mystery,
making people curious about his relationship with Su Tutu.
The show team indeed knew how to spice things up.
"Speaking of which, I should thank the show," Su Tutu couldn’t help but express her appreciation. "It’s been so long since we last filmed together, but the thought of being on the same program soon makes me happy."
Qiao Xi smiled slightly. "Isn’t that so?"
Su Tutu picked up her juice. "Here, let’s toast."
Qiao Xi raised her glass and clinked it with hers.
When Qiao Xi returned, she told Shen Dang about it.
Shen Dang clicked his tongue, slightly disdainful. "Why do they have to be there too?"
Qiao Xi: "?"
"Isn’t it good to have acquaintances?"
"It’s easy for them to steal the spotlight."
She hadn’t expected him to think this way.
Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh.
"They have their couple’s fans, and we have ours. Fans won’t switch sides easily."
"Is that so?"
