Chapter 68 You two ghosts...
Chapter 68: Chapter 68 You two ghosts...
Look how deep Shen Dang’s influence on her is; she’s developed a conditioned reflex.
It’s really an unfavorable sign.
Shen Dang: "..."
Good, she still has the spirit to scold him.
What was he worried about? Such a waste of facial expressions!
Shen Dang scoffed, his low voice neither cold nor warm, "You are a female ghost."
Qiao Xi, not to be outdone, replied, "Then you are a male ghost."
Su Tutu: "..."
How did they start arguing?
Are they playing?
These two childish ghosts!
Fine, she didn’t need to worry about her good sister anymore.
After hanging up the phone, Sheng Chao heard their conversation, his expression quite subtle, "You two ghosts..."
The words that followed were cut short under Shen Dang’s cold glare.
Sheng Chao cleared his throat and straightened up, "Ah Dang, don’t you need to handle the incident at the mall?"
Shen Dang indifferently said, "My dad is taking care of it."
"What actually happened?" Su Tutu asked impatiently, "How could such a thing happen?"
Sheng Chao said, "According to the staff who were there, it was some fans who wanted to chase Zhou Junqi and ended up being too many and someone fell from the building. The person didn’t even make it to the hospital before they were beyond saving."
Su Tutu’s mood unavoidably became somewhat somber, "It happened after Sister Xi left, right?"
This was indeed a living human life, gone just like that!
Sheng Chao nodded, "Yeah."
Su Tutu worriedly said, "Sister Xi, you should still tell Sister Li, so Zhou Junqi doesn’t try to smear you in this."
Qiao Xi lifted her eyes slightly and gave Su Tutu a smile, "Mmh."
After a quick meal, Qiao Xi put her mask and hat back on, "I should go now or I’ll miss my flight."
Shen Dang glanced at her, "I’ll take you."
His tone was light but carried an indisputable attitude.
Su Tutu said, "Go ahead, let Boss Shen take you. Otherwise, with you being so absent-minded, I wouldn’t feel relieved about you either."
Qiao Xi followed Shen Dang to the car.
Shen Dang opened the passenger door, his dark eyes landing on her, carrying a scrutinizing look.
Qiao Xi didn’t notice Shen Dang’s gaze as she bent down and got into the car obediently.
Waiting for Shen Dang to get in, Qiao Xi, realizing belatedly, asked, "Since it happened at Shen’s Group’s mall, don’t you need to arrange something?"
Shen Dang glanced at her with an indifferent expression and didn’t speak a word, driving away.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips, what did his silence mean?
She huddled in her seat and turned on her phone to log into Weibo.
Yet before she saw anything, an arm reached in front of her, snatching the phone away.
His sleeves rolled up, the black shirt enhancing his pale, strong forearms as they flashed before her eyes.
Qiao Xi looked up, her eyes still confused and her brows furrowed, "Why are you taking my phone?"
Shen Dang, eyes fixed on the road ahead, spoke in a tone neither warm nor cold, "Don’t worry about the things online. My dad can handle it, and besides, it’s not related to the mall, and you weren’t there either, so it’s not your concern."
Qiao Xi withdrew her gaze, letting her eyes fall, her lashes trembling slightly, "I know."
She just felt sad.
Life could be so fragile, you never know which comes first, the accident or tomorrow.
The evanescence of life left her feeling helpless.
That person only wanted to be a fan, and probably never expected an accident to happen—with so much blood, it must have been painful, right?
Was her mother also so unwilling and regretful in the final moments of her car accident?
If only she hadn’t tried to salvage her marriage.
But, ’if only’ itself is an invalid thing.
Qiao Xi leaned back in her seat, her voice somewhat weak, "I’m going to sleep for a bit."
"Mmh."
At the airport, Qiao Xi immediately opened her eyes, her eyes cold.
She turned her head, a cold smile on her lips, "Boss Shen, thank you for taking me to the airport."
Shen Dang squinted, assessing her.
The current Qiao Xi no longer showed the lost demeanor from just a moment ago.
Calm, elegant, composed, cold, and distant.
Just as she had been at Sheng Chao’s wedding.
Shen Dang curled his lips, a smile not quite reaching his eyes, "No need to thank me, just treat me to a meal when you come back."
Qiao Xi nodded, "Sure, by then we might as well have divorced, and we can have our final meal."
Shen Dang’s arm was propped on the steering wheel, his slender, vigorous arm, with veins slightly pronounced, looked sexy and strong.
His eyes lingered on her ethereal face as laughter spilled from his throat, "Alright, get out."
Qiao Xi got out of the car, and as soon as she closed the door, Shen Dang’s car drove away.
Qiao Xi watched for a moment, then turned and walked into the terminal.
Before boarding, she turned off her phone.
Upon arriving in Jiang City, her phone received many messages, some caring and some probing.
She ignored them.
The person picking her up, Bei Bei, looked a bit worried, "Sister Xi, are you alright?"
Qiao Xi gave Bei Bei a refined smile, "I’m fine; Zhou Junqi should be the one in trouble."
The person who fell was his fan, and Zhou Junqi was now in the eye of the storm, anxious.
Bei Bei smiled, "Then let’s go back to the hotel."
Qiao Xi closed her eyes and leaned against the seatback, her eyelashes long and luscious, casting a shadow like a small fan, "Mmh, let’s go back and change before I head to the set."
"Alright."
Qiao Xi continued filming until eight o’clock at night, making up the scenes she had missed that morning.
Back at the hotel, she was utterly exhausted.
Bei Bei brought her some late-night food and after she finished eating and cleaned up the table, before leaving, he reminded her, "Sister Xi, you should rest early."
After a tiring day, she should have fallen asleep easily, but after taking a bath, Qiao Xi became very alert.
The mall falling incident was all over the internet, with various overwhelming discussions about it.
Zhou Junqi responded quickly, but because the deceased was his fan, it still greatly affected him.
With the situation being severe, some even talked about boycotting the film "Time and Space Lovers."
Although this wasn’t much related to Qiao Xi, Wang Li still logged onto her Weibo to express regret and sympathy for the deceased.
In the company, Zhou Junqi was pacing back and forth in a fury.
"Dead is dead; it still happened while I was there. Why didn’t it happen further away from me!" Under a grim expression, Zhou Junqi continued, "It’s even my fan, how is it not trouble out of nowhere?"
Brother Wang frowned deeply, "What’s the use of saying this now? Calming the public’s anger is what truly matters!"
the public always sympathizes with the underdog, they always need someone to blame.
"But this damn thing has nothing to do with me, it’s not like I pushed her off, just because she’s my fan I have to be responsible? Crazy!"
"The trending topic has been up all day, you should start a live stream and apologize first, or Le Entertainment might drop you."
He had only verbally agreed with Le Entertainment; if he was tainted with scandal, would Le Entertainment still sign with him?
