Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Confession Needed Again Next Time
The gossip about Zhou Junqi started with Bei Bei: "It seems like Zhou Junqi got into trouble. His TV drama was halted, and he lost his endorsements. Serves him right, hahaha... Evil people will eventually get their comeuppance."
Su Tutu, gloating, touched her pointed chin: "Ouch, who’s the big shot with such good taste?"
Su Tutu didn’t know yet that it was her husband’s company that had taken the fall for Shen Dang.
Qiao Xi was about to speak when her cellphone rang. She stepped aside to answer: "What’s up?"
Shen Dang’s lazy, indifferent voice came over, teasing: "If there’s any gossip about you in the future, don’t use Weibo to declare your love for me. I can’t handle it if people we know find out, they’ll think you’re actually in love with me."
Qiao Xi: "..."
What is this guy talking about?
Is that even human language?
Qiao Xi replied with a cold laugh: "I really don’t think you need to worry about that."
Shen Dang hummed through his nose, his tone becoming even more nonchalant: "Haven’t you heard of the phrase ’expect the unexpected’? Can you guarantee nothing unexpected will happen?"
"There’s absolutely no chance of that kind of accident happening!" Qiao Xi declared emphatically.
She would ruthlessly snuff out any accident before it could happen.
Shen Dang laughed slowly: "Who can be sure about these things? Sometimes just talking about something makes it come true. And you declared your love on Weibo without giving me any mental preparation—I’m really suspicious."
Qiao Xi: "..."
Ha!
What wishful thinking!
"So next time I need to confess my love to you, should I give you a heads up first?"
"It’s not that it’s impossible, but as I said, there’s no necessity for such trouble. It just leads to unnecessary misunderstandings."
God knows what he felt when he suddenly saw Qiao Xi declaring her love on Weibo.
This woman had used his name more than once without even a hint of pressure.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he knew Qiao Xi couldn’t possibly have any feelings for him, damn, he might have believed it was true.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips: "I don’t want to cause any trouble either, but this is the best way to clear up the rumors."
Besides, they could get divorced soon anyway, so he really had no reason to worry.
With one hand propping up his chin, Shen Dang’s smooth lines stretched from his forehead to his Adam’s apple. He spoke in a low voice, his Adam’s apple rolling with each word, carrying an indescribable enticement: "So didn’t I just help you clear things up?"
He said in a nonchalant tone.
Qiao Xi was puzzled: "What did you help me clear up?"
Shen Dang raised an eyebrow: "Don’t you know the current situation of the guy who’s involved in the rumors with you?"
Zhou Junqi?
Oh, all his activities had been suspended, and his drama couldn’t be aired either.
Could it be?
Shocked by her own thoughts, Qiao Xi asked: "Shen Dang, did you do this?"
"Mmm-hmm."
He curled his thin lips slightly in a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, exuding an extraordinarily casual demeanor.
Qiao Xi was still somewhat incredulous: "Are you... that idle?"
Was he really involved in such matters?
That was unexpected.
"I didn’t do it for you," Shen Dang said, as if he knew what Qiao Xi was about to say, laughing coldly: "I did it for myself. After all, you are still my wife in name. I would still take care of things like this."
Taking down Zhou Junqi was just a word from him.
Others may not care about GK Entertainment, but they would have to respect the investor of his caliber.
And due to the Shen Family, they would be even more wary.
After all, he was still the Crown Prince of Shen Group, born with a kingdom under his feet.
There was no competing with that.
Zhou Junqi was just a minor character; he really didn’t need to pay him any attention.
Qiao Xi: "..."
Qiao Xi felt bittersweet, a sensation of swelling.
It wasn’t excitement, nor was it joy. It was an indescribable feeling.
Suddenly, she imagined if she had any feelings for Shen Dang, then his actions would undoubtedly be bewitching her.
This man...
He seemed indifferent to this fragile relationship and was cold, always ready to get divorced, but still, he did such things.
As he said, was it just an obligation?
Yep, he really had too much free time!!!
Noticing her silence, Shen Dang clicked his tongue: "You don’t have to be too moved."
Madam Shen was quite pleased with the situation.
Pulling herself together, Qiao Xi’s phoenix eyes were cold, and the corners of her eyes lifted, revealing a chill of elegance: "I’m not moved. After all, Boss Shen did it for his own face in Hai City’s high society, not for me, right?"
Shen Dang: "..."
Qiao Xi hung up the phone.
She returned to the room just in time to hear Bei Bei say: "Zhou Junqi often stepped on others to climb up, and now his boat’s overturned. I really want to thank the big shot who took action."
Qiao Xi was feeling ambivalent.
Who would have thought that the big shot would be Shen Dang.
"Was that your husband’s call?" Su Tutu asked, looking up.
"Yeah."
Wow!
It was Sister Xi’s husband again!
Bei Bei looked up quickly but couldn’t see anything out of the ordinary on Qiao Xi’s face.
However, her curiosity grew.
Lately, Sister Xi’s husband seemed to call her quite frequently.
Su Tutu said: "Remember, we’re going together to GK’s cocktail party."
Tonight, Shen Dang was attending a meeting which included several entertainment company executives, with Sheng Chao among them.
Over the years, IDC Capital’s investments have covered various industries. With Shen Dang’s accurate market analysis and strong strategies, IDC Capital had established its own position in the venture capital world.
Some said IDC Capital’s growth was inseparable from family support.
But without Shen Dang’s business acumen, even with family help, IDC Capital wouldn’t stand in the venture capital world, would it?
And he had even expanded to overseas markets.
His investments were flourishing everywhere.
However, Shen Dang’s recent takeover of GK Entertainment was his first foray into this circle.
He quickly turned GK into something he had in the bag.
The executives present were much more experienced than Shen Dang, but no one dared to cross him.
One of the executives, curious, asked: "I wonder why President Shen is getting into the entertainment industry?"
Shen Dang, lazily toying with the lighter in his hand, glanced at the executive: "The entertainment industry is profitable now."
Executive: "..."
That answer was very real.
Already making waves in the investment world, now he’s coming to take a slice of their pie in the entertainment industry, making them itch with irritation.
But Shen Dang had the power to do so.
"President Shen and President Sheng are friends, it seems like you’re aiming to take over half of the entertainment industry?" another executive asked.
Both were formidable opponents.
Shen Dang’s lips curled slightly, the hint of a smile sending a chill down one’s spine: "That’s not an impossibility."
"..."
Never mind, he had brought it upon himself by unnecessarily asking such a question.
There were many ways to make money in the entertainment industry. It was just a matter of who could get the most.
They had lived several decades more after all; they might not lose to these two young men.
Hmph, just wait and see.
Sheng Chao put down his glass. The dim light in the private room occasionally illuminated his face, casting him in stark relief: "Ah Dang, I did hear something of interest."
